ONE MILLION eyeballs, on Chateau de Chaumont. 

I remember day one when Stephanie made the announcements and I came in and clicked I was number 13 and here we are 500,000 later watching you squirm struggle work hard the most importantly succeed

Congratulations Dan! I am so happy for you ! I am a 75 yr old lady in Arizona USA! I found you on RU-vid right after you got Chateau…I first saw you with Stephanie @ Chateau Laland. I hope and pray I live long enough to see this chateau complete. I admire your vision and determination to achieve it. Good bless you, keep up good work. It is well worth all your hard work!

Thanks for not doing advertisements, just pure content. I think that's the reason I keep watching.

Yup, it’s for the noggins! 🎉 thanks Dan and Nick and crew for allowing us to join you on this amazing journey!

🎉🥂🍾🎉🥂🍾🎉🥂🍾🎉🥂🍾🎉 Congratulations, Daniel Preston! 🎉🥂🍾🎉🥂🍾🎉🥂🍾🎉👍🍾🎉

Congratulations!!

We keep coming back because you’re a HERO!!! Dan along with your dedicated team. Restoring this Chateau is absolutely fascinating and the thinking behind it. CONGRATULATIONS 🥂🍾🍻

I really don't know why i watch this every day. Maybe because it is just so relaxing watching other people work. Maybe because I like old beautiful buildings saved - especially in a world where destruction and ugliness has become so common now.

Watching the steel beams get painted was surprisingly satisfying. Seeing rusty steel get cleaned up. That’s apparently entertainment. Who knew?

The last wall trees are shivering now😅

Congratulations Dan and everyone involved. Brilliant to be allowed to be part of your amazing Chateau adventure ❤

On behalf of myself and all the other noggin - heads out here in the RU-vidrverse, I just want to say congratulations on hitting the half a million subscribers mark! You've earned each and every one of them (as well as the cake!) 👍👍👍

The one "show" I look forward to everyday. It's amazing to watch the process.

Congratulations, Dan! With half a million viewers watching your posts and sharing with all their friends, one million won't be far away.

Congratulations on 500K🎉🎊 We keep coming back because this is the most entertaining channel of it's kind on You Tube. I've watched a lot of these restoration/do it yourself type channels over the years and yours is the only one I never lose interest in. I think it's because you are just so down to earth and easy to relate to. You talk to us, not at us and you don't talk us to death because you've got work to do. You went from "nowhere to live" to "restoring a chateau while living in a yurt" in less than a year. This chateau is going to be so perfectly yours...by the time you finish, there will be no stone in that entire building you haven't touched.

Woohoo! 500k!!!! Congratulations! We want to see the plaque when it arrives!

I am one of the first! Congratulations. Working in the gardens, rebuilding your cottage and now the chateau. You have provided me with countless hours of entertainment and humor.

It’s great to be a part of your half mil family - been with you from the beginning Onwards and literally upwards!!

Congratulations Dan! To think it all started with a cottage and “not a roof terrace.’ I’ve enjoyed every minute. I remember that shy gardener who couldn’t speak to the camera. You deserve all the successes

Happy 502 thousand already! Congrats Dan! You said "NOGGINS!" Love it.... so simple, but so much fun.

500k so far in such a short time, we’ll done well done indeed!

You have no idea the happiness you bring to my husband and I by sharing your beautiful work. We congratulate you on the BIG 500!

Dan, when I first stumbled upon your channel, in those early days when you wandered into the bush to explore this crumbling chateau, I thought to myself: 'well, this won't last long. The whole thing is falling apart.' When you kept posting updates I realized you had serious intentions of rebuilding it. Still thought you were mad. Now it's to the point where your brief videos are a highlight in my day and I can't wait to see what aspect of the project you'll tackle next. Unbelievable. I have nothing but admiration and, respect for your determination, vision and amazingly upbeat attitude. You will not be stopped. You are inspiring in every sense of the word. Congrats on reaching 500,000 viewers!

Congratulations Dan ! From Dan the gardener to where we stand today, you took us from quite a ride LOL.❤❤❤

Seeing someone who’s just a regular guy doing everything themselves, rather than mega rich people paying tradies is very encouraging and satisfying. Robert and Deb. Australia

Glad to be in possession of two eyes balls I’ve had on your channel and project from the beginning.

Thank you Dan for taking us along on this adventure ❤

Happy to join 499,999 other people come along on your adventure. Been with you since your first renovation and will be with you through to the end of this one.

You make a 70 year old lady very happy, never thought about I'd say 😊 thank you I love the restoration. It's so rewarding and one day one day I'd love to visit.

I can’t believe you moved steel beams yourself! The progress with help is astounding!!!

As Carly Simon says in her lyrics “nobody does it better”. Congratulations on a million pair of eyes watching. We all want another million pair of eyes!

With Brian mindful of the carpet😆, Nick mindful of everything else👍👍 and you mindful of blowing out the candle 🎂Chaumont is in safe hands. The sky's the limit on this project, 500K is looking like just the start

Congradulations Dan and to all who are working beside you to bring this Chateau back to life.❤

Woo hoo! You did it Dan, 500k subscribers! Onwards and upwards to 1 million of us! Wow, so many people watching every day, well, it’s no wonder really because you keep it real for all of us every day! I’m watching from Niagara Falls, Canada, and it’s a joy to see how you’ve grown from your first project, to Stephanie’s Chateau, to your own Chateau! I never miss an episode, and revel in each of your accomplishments! “See you tomorrow” Gilly

I’m continually amazed by the quality of construction lumber used. I haven’t seen anything like that in these parts for decades.

I’m proud to be part of the 500 000 noggins followers. 👍🏻

REMEMBERING THE DAYS WHEN YOU HAD YOUR GREEN CAMPERVAN ALWAYS BREAKING DOWN AND ALL THE SHOTS FROM YOUR FIRST DROME AND YOU CATCHING IT IN THE VAN, HAPPY DAYS DAN WELL DONE YOU WORKED HARD AND YOUR FRIENDS TO.

The look on their faces “is this guy serious” when you said, you’re not singing? Starting the chorus 🎵 happy five-hundred-thousand 😅🎉 Congrats Dan!

I keep coming back because of the positivity and joy. Makes my day watching friends work together to help restore something so beautiful. Thanks for always being so genuine, this world needs more people like you.

Yes, congratulations Dan. 500 thousand subscribers. Yes to ALL three of You, WE celebrate with You ALL. Sending Love to You ALL.❤

Dan, it's your achievement, not ours. The reason I've watched you is because you are interesting. You're always up to something, and it's interesting and often times amazing. Keep doing it, we will watch. Thank you. ❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉😊

Well, who would have thought back in your green van days that you would reach half a million subscribers? Congratulations, Dan, you have earned your success. Well done, you.

I discovered this channel when it was about 20 episodes old. I binged them all in one night and have not missed one since.

We keep coming back because we're looking forward to see the finish Dan. You put so much into this project with your enthusiasm that it's hard not to! Its not like you're decorating tables for dinner you're working really hard for your future and the future for your beautiful boys! Keep it up, we love it!

The quality, of your updates is what caught my attention. The camera work, the aerial views, outstanding. That, I believe is what makes your channel so engrossing. We (the viewers) are on a journey with you, and excited about the end, but not wanting it to end. You, and your friends are doing an outstanding job.

One day you are turning a bread bakery into a house for your family while you are being a gardener on Stephanie’s Chateau Diaries RU-vid channel and the next you own your own chateau. And while Stephanie and Philip are trying to decide which bed looks better in a room, you are having to figure out how best to install the floors and put a roof on it. But I bet you wouldn’t have it any other way because when all is said and done there will be no mold or cement on the stone walls and you will know where everything is including where the noggins are. Congrats on having 500,000 of us invading your life.

I think it would be funny if Dan was so successful with this channel that he moved into a nearby mansion ( but does not tell us). I can see Kat sporting a Cartier tiara!

Loved you since before the start of your vlogging, when you were just gardening for Steph. Through the construction of your kitchen, the man cave and the other parts of your cottage. You have earned each and every eyeball. Well done Dan!

Wow oh wow, so many congratulations to Dan and the gang of fine men. You have all done amazingly. Great content. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Congratulations on 500k subs and counting. I've been watching Dan , as the elusive shy Dan as the gardener, fixing his tiny cottage with an awesome chef like kitchen and that chandelier . Dan's videos were sort of my pandemic fix and I'm still one of your avid fans. So I can say , you've come along way. Keep it up Dan!!! Thank you 😊

It is wonderful that so many are pulling for total success in restoring this Chateau! Congratulations!

Congratulations on the 1m eyeballs. It has been an honour watching you begin to bring this beautiful place back to life. It is a credit to you, for keeping the content real. 😁🎉

Dan: doing what takes tremendous effort and making it look effortless ❤❤❤

Congratulations Dan, you deserve this 500,000 mark and more. Here's to reaching a million and beyond. I'm sure you'll do it!
