Great that you are still around, I was wondering what happened as you haven't uploaded video's for a long time. It was a real shock to hear that Ed passed away. Initially I couldn't believe it. Very sad news to hear that an awesome guy / great engineer / tinkerer is not with us anymore. Your orange cat looks very good, they are great for quality control. Nice 1 banger diesel engine. Look forward to more vids.
Soooo Good to see that your still around. You and Ed's Channel were of the vary first on you tube that I ever subbed to years ago. I truly remember all the videos you made together. Then RODALCO 2007s Channel. Found out the bad news through shango066 channel. Kitty still looks good. Still got all of those lawn mowers??? HeHeHeHe.
As glad as I am to see a new upload from you, I only wish it were under far happier circumstances. I'm very sorry to hear of Ed's passing. It is a big loss, and truly came as a shock. That's really all I've got.
i have been subscribed to you and ed for many years your guys and a few others videos have gotten me trough the mecanicaly minded persons dark moments that bigclive.com talks about i tank you for all the interesting videos that took my mind out of the darkness
It's been a few weeks since his passing. I'm still not able to process it. I never met him in person, but I feel like I have. I feel like I've lost a close friend.
RIP Ed, I was wondering where he got to, followed Ed on his adventures for years, he was a great inspiration and good laugh and entertainment. He was unique and will be dearly missed, genuinely shed a tear for you and his family, I wouldnt have begun half my projects if Ed's videos weren't there to motivate me or teach me new things, I started watching him when I was 16, am now 22, and even know I never new him on a personal level I can personally thank him for his input and and all the laughs he gave us. Spoke to him quite a few times over youtube was always informative and willing to help/answer any questions I had, I hope he passed painfully, and now can live forever in our memories, thank you for sharing this I really do appreciate it, was wondering where my favorite youtuber went, suppose I'll now go re-watch some videos in his honour.
I'm at a loss for words. I really enjoyed watching his videos. His channel was how I found your videos as well. I can't believe he's gone :-( RIP mate.
Aussie50 being the first youtube channel I subbed to, and an inspiration for me to create my channel and choose the career I chose, this is very tough news to hear, and I know for countless others as well. RIP Ed, you will be missed.
My severely belated condolences. I loved watching his videos and subscribed to him years ago. It was only today (Jan. 28, 2020) that in an unrelated search that I read in Rinoa's video title the bad news, then I watched Big Clive's brief memorial video discussing the news. Again, great times, and sad, sad news, posted by a fan in the sister commonwealth nation of Canada.
Thank you, Brad for your words. I'd also like to thank you for your videos and your appearances in Ed's - whenever you two were in a video together I knew something or another would get LOUD. ;-) Sorry for the loss of your friend and an excellent youtuber. Cheers
Brad, you and Ed gave me and so many others a lot of inspiration and you both have shared so much of your knowledge. That kind of thing is hard to measure and put a value on. He will be sorely missed....RIP Ed / Aussie50 I hope that you are well, and will continue to share your projects and ideas with us.
Ive stayed quiet about ed passing, I really didnt have words. I finally can say, I miss him, I cherish your heart. I still get choked up. He was an inspiration in my teens as are you. It was the coolest when we chatted over RU-vid about something. Thankyou for keeping his memory living with the machines he had revived. If I ever get the chance I'll come by and we can have a pint in honor of.
Jagnut, My name is Scott. I sent Ed his HYAGOIN Arizona plate that he has in his shed. I will miss him much, Look forward to some new videos from you . Hope to see the plate again, I have its twin in my garage here.
You and Ed were my first two RU-vid subscriptions. I am super happy to see you upload again. I thought you might have given it up. I still don't know what to make of Ed's death. But he was a great inspiration and I hope his videos go on to inspire more in the future.
I miss Ed’s videos, always looked forward to them when I seen them came out, great guy and awesome teacher, he will be missed, and good to see you again v8 jagnut! Look forward to the new and old videos
Thank you for this video. I'll link his mercedes videos on the ML70 facebook page, they have so much valuable information for the ML270 community. Gonna miss his casual style, we all are.
Condolences to Ed's family and friends.. This channel and Ed's were some of the first channels I ever watched.. After 10 years of viewing, his passion, knowledge, and humor will be missed greatly..
This is one video I didn't want to see on here. When I saw the news he had passed I thought of you. He will be sorely missed, maybe not by old washing machines, but by his family, friends, and youtubers all over the world.
It’s nice to hear from you Brad. Shame it couldn’t have been on a nicer subject... poor Ed. Such a shame and very sad indeed. I started watching videos from yourself and Ed when I was 7 years old. I learnt some very valuable things from his and your content that will stick with me forever. Hope you’re doing as well as you can at this time.
I must admit, after the initial shock of Edd's passing, my second thought was that it won't be fun clearing out all his gear that he'd amassed over the years. I'm still shocked tbh, of course life outside of what we saw on youtube is a hell of a lot different but he always seemed happy on camera.
I found Ed via the washing machine destructions but he's posted so much genuinely interesting and knowledgeable stuff as well. Had I not delved into his channel years ago, I probably wouldn't have been into tinkering nearly as much as I am today. I'm just deeply shocked by the news, and wish you and his family the best going forward. RIP Ed. Thanks for everything.
I've watched Ed's content since, well, the days of that ratty old camera. Never saw this coming. So sad. Of course, I don't pretend to know Ed, but perhaps he was lonely? Folks, if you are depressed, or are even remotely thinking of taking your life, you NEED TO REACH OUT to someone, anyone! Family, friends, suicide prevention hotlines. To paraphrase Kurzgesagt's Loneliness video: "[Reaching out] is NOT a sign of weakness, but of COURAGE." Ed, you made a positive impact on more people than you know. RIP mate. P.S. Jillian got the DOOM ATM, right?
Brad, years back probably around 2007 I started watching your videos daily, and thats where I got introduced to Ed's channel. Both of your channels were amazing and the first of their type, you both have so much knowledge and the want to teach everyone is a quality that is hard to find these days. Ed will be missed for sure. Sorry for the loss of your friend.
He was one of the first people I subscribed to almost 10 years ago. I really hate that I am just now finding this out. His videos taught me so much and opened me to learning how to work on and fix things myself. He opened me up to the world of youtubers like yourself that tinkers, fixes, and just teaches how things work. It's just incredibly sad that we've lost someone like him. I miss seeing you and Ed doing videos regularly and teaching us things while also just having fun and being destructive. I looked forward to both of your videos after work every week. I know life gets in the way and youtube being relatively dumb towards "smaller" content creators which disincentives frequent uploads, but people like you share knowledge and teach which is really what youtube was all about. I'm really going to miss hearing hearing his intro with every new video.
V8Jagnut and Aussie50 were also among the first subscriptions I had. Crazy to think that was a decade ago! Their videos inspired me to post up some of my own. I was extremely pleased to see a new video from Brad pop up in my feed, but brokenhearted when I heard the news about Ed. It hits very close to home, as I lost my better half nearly 2 years ago to the same thing. Condolences to Ed's family and those who loved him. He will definitely be missed.
I sadly found out Ed had passed by BigClivedotCom's video. I did notice that he hadn't uploaded in quite awhile, i used to love hanging out in his live streams of setting things alight or doing something destructive with a microwave, he'll be missed thats for sure.
I am so sorry to hear that Aussie50/Ed passed away! I have really missed hearing from you and how you are doing! Will enjoy seeing more videos from you, my friend! Great to see your cat again!
You, Ed, and Rodalco were among the first three RU-vidrs I ever subscribed to. I lament that I'd stopped watching youall's videos in recent past. I'm going to have to binge all of his vids now...
It's good to see you again Brad. So sad to hear about Ed's passing though. It was definitely a shock to hear the news the other day. Looking forward to seeing you more often here on RU-vid again.
As you say, sad times 😭 Ed will be sorely missed - he always seemed upbeat, even when things weren't going smoothly. Good to hear from you - looking foward to more vids.
RIP ED. thanks for the video update I was wondering what was going to happen to all of ED's stuff. Wasn't the house Ed's dads house ? is there an obituary somewhere where we can leave messages ?
R.I.P Aussie 50. One of the best youtubers of all time. It's hard to believe that a man with so many interests in life could go this way. My condolences to all. When you watch a bloke tinkering away in his garage for so long it's almost as though you know them personally. I would've loved to hang out with him and V8 Jagnut another legend.
Congrats on the new place. It looks like your doing well for yourself. Thanks for the video update even though it is a sad time for us all... Best of luck as you work thru this difficult time.
Holy shit, I'm in tears I watched him ever since 2010. He was such a great man and he will definetly be missed because I loved how he played with aircons and blew shit up. What happened to his dog.
Aussie 50 and V8 Jagnut made some great videos together. You guys made for some entertaining videos. Will miss Ed's videos although he had not posted very much over the last year. RIP ED
R.I.P Aussie 50. I was truly shocked when I found out he had passed away,much respect to both you guys.I used to watch all the videos you and Ed uploaded over the years and learnt a lot from the both of you with the mechanical and hvac stuff back in the day you guys would share on youtube which inspired me to upload some of my own stuff for a while.Good to see another video from you sorry it's not under better circumstances though,also my condolences to his family,yourself and other friends/fellow youtubers that knew Ed personally I would have really liked to have met Ed.
It shocked me when i caught wind and i was in disbelief but it gets more and more real everyday. I am going to miss the brilliant mind. I had watched both him and you probably upwards of 6-8 years or more.
Wow, I'm shocked and sad. I discoverd Aussie50/Ed through V8Jagnut a couple of years ago and enjoyed watching his videos, such a clever guy. RIP and condolances to his family and friends. :-(
So sad i miss ed so much. I live is the us and have learned so much for him. Can't stop crying. U better but up some content. U are know his replac ment. Rip ed
Just now learnt of Ed’s passing. I’m shocked, and a bit sick to my stomach. I was so used to him not posting a lot for a while but when I saw he hadn’t posted in many many months I can right over here. Saw the title of this video and figured damn, aussie50 channel must have been nuked for some reason. But this is worse then I could have ever imagined. Ed seemed so damn young too and looked just fine. I never Ed personally and he never know I existed beyond a subscriber count but like many I feel like I just lost a friend, a mentor, comedic relief, and mechanical genius. As passionate as Ed was about what he did I can only hope to find 10% of that joy in what I do. He was an incredible guy. Deeply saddened by his passing..
Keep doin what your doin. I talked to ed on his last upload. Idk what to say. Very hard. Would like to Get to know you. Big void in my life now. Looking forward to vids from you. Starting the diesel lifted my sole 😊
That was such a shock .. If I'd had known that he has these thoughts .. I would have made sure I could make him contact one of these helplines or go into get counselling .. but who ever knows? really? Such a waste. RIP man
if you go back to eds could you make one more video of his shop its such a legendary spot im sure some peopel would like to see it one last time eds videos have got me trough some pretty dark times i know exactly the engineers/tinkerer low points that big Clive talked about in his video
I'm still shocked by ed death, it still make me feel like shit. Both his videos and yours helped me pass though some of the toughest times of my life. BTW you looked like you've moved to my neck of the woods, if you want to catch up sometime for a drink or a chat let me know.
Rip To Ed Sorry To Hear About Whats Happend He One Of The Pepole I subscribed Two When I First Made My Channel Back In 2011 He Will be Missed Was a Very Cleaver Person And Funny At The Same Time
Dammit. He was one of the first youtube video i ever seen. When he obliterated that hot point washer. Absolute tragity him takeing his own life:- ( he seemed like such a bright and resourceful person i thought he would have thought it through a little better. Im so sorry.
I've asked a few questions - was Ed being bullied at work - was he sacked or something - I know he found it hard to work for people - someone commented that the plastic extortion mob really treated him unfairly - is any of this right or was it the final stages of depression that got him - I'm still in relative shock .
Don't think anyone knows why. Even if you did know Ed's gone now. ED wont be forgotten You could travel the world five times over and you won't find another he was one of a kind. On some good news his now at 99K subscribers.
