RAF flypast in honour of Captain Tom - BBC News 

I agree 👍

I'm Ok.

Good thing, I walk up and down my stairs without stopping for 30 minutes 2 times a day. Been doing this for 3 years now.

Same here, I am 23 and I am almost seizing up. He has put me to shame

@@forza223bowe5 yes

I suspect that he will appreciate that more than a knighthood. Colonel is a respected military award and related to the army, which he obviously appreciated. Any c list celebrity or sportsman can get a knighthood.

He has renewed our faith in humanity

@AJ P tin hat moron

@AJ P the tin hat morons like you are the problem. everything's a conspiracy... some of us are rational, logical thinkers and that doesn't make us "sheep". Just because some of us dont buy into your conspiracy theories, how does that make us slaves to propaganda? .. one could argue the silly morons who believe anything anti-authority are the real sheep.... I am in no way a blind believer of the media, in fact I dislike the mainstream media for it's current destruction of free speech and trying to label everyone with a different opinion as "racist, fascist or bigot".. however it doesnt mean I believe every silly conspiracy circulating. what makes your sources more valid than anybody else?

@crustywasp agreed ✌

xXxGr33N3RxXx You muppet you wouldn’t have said that if you were in Germany during the war ! Wake up you dumb brainwashed lemmings

@@walkerwanted4652 Oh stop whining

Din Djarin 😂😂😂

i know i LOVE the sound of those engines

@@walkerwanted4652 they shouldn't have bombed us first then should they you eejit. good for the goose is good for the gander and all that

Kate King probably due to the fact that the distinctive rolls Royce engines could Not be heard due to the over talkative narration.

Those people have hate in their heart, let them rot in their own hate..you can do nothing for them, hes a proper hero, clap for him and him alone

@@pablo9364 wow that would be a very petty excuse

lammy pie captain Tom is being honoured on a tacky news channel. Captain Tom deserves better

@@pablo9364 like what exactly??? Lol

Love this.

Yes

Don't hold back--in the chat thread no one can hear you sob. 😘

🤣

Simon Hopkins - I didn’t hold back ... lol 😂... I’m a mess 😭. Happy Birthday to an amazing man!

They were from the luftwaffe.

It looks like it's a bunch of tin hats looking though some of the comments. Seems at least one person believes that the Nazis were the good guys, and WWII was all a big propaganda campaign. Some people are just messed up in the head. (No offense to anyone with a genuine mental illness, I'm talking about tin hats)

@zeddy mcdog Nah it was a different commenter they basically said if the other side won in ww2 we would no longer have wars. And the Ally's were the bad guys. (Unfortunately in war it's all shades of grey) I assume the person I was making reference to was ether a troll or must have used a lot of tin foil for there hat. Sorry if you thought I was making reference to yourself, I did look though the comments trying to find out why someone would dislike the video, as it's a feel-good piece.

They are brave behind a button. Tom is such a pure Brit, these thumbs down people need to go back to their country !,

I have asked this question many times on clips like this, some clips such as a deaf baby being given the gift of hearing for the first time and its amazing reaction. I can not imagine many(other than the odd nutcase) disliking these clips but apparently RU-vid has an automation system that does it to add a little balance, according to some of my responses anyway....

He was a criminal.

Absolutely agree, a generation of heros

The Greatest Generation was Adam and Eve.

SugarTomAppleRoger if you believe in that wonky donkey shit maybe

OK boomer

@@rhysstanley7387 Nope. Adam and Eve aren't boomers.

Rene, we love you all too. If it wasn't for the egos of our leaders & politicians, all our nations would be awesome together. We absolutely do NOT hate the citizen's of Europe!

Merlin PV12 I love Europe, not the European Union big difference

🇬🇧🤝🇳🇱

CCP CCP my man here really ruining the Taiwanese image

We love you in Europe too, just hate the EU

And not just Sir Tom's birthday, I think RAF gave us all a memorable moment. What a man... What a life!

No, flying with PAY BACK.

That was a tear-jerker for me.

Daddy Captain Tom Happy Wonderdul 100th Loving Birthday To You Sir, You are a very good kind caring Man. We love you Sir. Keep the good long up. Well done to you. YOU ARE A GOOD INSPIRATIONAL MAN. GOD BLESS. ❤💙❤💙❤💙❤💙❤💙

Previous month I was able to gather my first five figure income ever!!! I've been working for this company online for twenty four months now and I never been happier... They are paying me $95 per hour, and the most important thing regarding it is that I am not that tech-savvy, they just required standard insight into internet and basic typing skill...The best thing about it is that now I have more free time with my family. I am in a position to spend quality time with my friends and family and take care of my babies and also going on vacation along with them very frequently. Don't let pass this chance and make sure to respond quickly. Here’s what I do *acttoday48­.­c­o­m*

Nothing good about British, most racist country in the world

Ashamed to be British go away, you racist piece of crap

Ashamed to be British come back here now

Ashamed to be British I said come back here now

What's your gen?

@@fredo1070 your generation are the doctors, nurses, essential workers working their ass off, risking their lives. He does not put your generation to shame, he puts you to shame.

@@rt-viz954 I can guarantee that the doctors and nurses at Normandy in 1944 weren't wasting time making Tik Tok videos.

@@fredo1070 wow well done for generealzing , and they are still saving lives . Just having fun , what do you do ?

sel18: So true

We would of never spoke German. Do you really think Nazis could of pulled off operation sealion. With the Royal navy blocking the channel?

Really. You need to wake up to the propaganda. Germany didn't want a war. Zionist Churchill did.

@@enlightenednews5265 ??????

@No1 Jack Churchill was a devout zionist. Look deeper and you and others will see. RU-vid censorship is rampant. No free speech allowed.

@@LS-hl1yi yes many questions. But do you really look for them or just get it from RU-vid and the other zionist outlets.

And the younger UK generation appreciate the poles who served in battle of Britain

@Umbrella corporation Yeah it's a well known fact that everyone in UK speaks Arabic and we worship Allah.. you're a moron get in the real world.

Piotr, i come from a place called Whitchurch in north Shropshire in England. Near our town there is a place called Higher Heath. During the second world war there was a small aerodrome there and many polish pilots came and lived there doing immeasurable service for freedom. Many families from the polish community still live there. Without their bravery and skill along with the raf who knows what we would have faced. Thanks to the fortitude of your nation along with many others the good defeated the evil. Give thanks and prayers for your lost and survivors. Best wishes, Cuzz.

@@joshbrown5034 My grandfather, who was the Chief of Staff of the Lodz Army, was killed on 19.09.1939 in a lap between the Nazi and Soviets. The second grandfather, who was only a captain but commanded a battalion, was seriously wounded in the largest battle of 1939 on the Bzura River. He spent the war in the German "oflag" camp, and after its end and return to Poland he was persecuted as an officer by the communists. Uncles fought in England, one in Tobruk, Monte Casino and Rome, and the other in arm with the English in the armored division from Normandy through Belgium, the Netherlands, to Wilhelmshaven. He remained in England, graduated and worked as a designer and partner throughout his life for Ove Arup & Partners International Ltd. He died in London. Both headmasters respected and liked the British, expressing very flatteringly about their courage, bravery and love of freedom and independence. I hope that you will also quickly and efficiently defeat the epidemic as befits proud British people. Greetings from Poland, more precisely from Krakow. Piotr

@Mike Buvado too far

Lol. Well done you..

Its because they have to choose between young and old.

Murali Dharan, that’s the justification they give but I think it’s a bit more callous than that. To our shame many of the WWII generation, ended up dying pretty undignified deaths on NHS wards before their time (if they had received proper treatment).

D H You don’t know any you lying moron

@@steffanhoffmann8937 hahahahahaha LMFAO nah they're using sling shot to fly them not use engine

@No1 Jack okay I'm not. However for the record I've lived and worked in a number of countries. I have a very good education. I went to one of your top universities in fact. I'll tell you my impression of Britain. It hasn't been any kind of superpower for perhaps a hundred years. However they live in the past IMO. Spitfires for Tom. (He's a great character) Nothing wrong with that but it's as if the UK are harking back to the past with that symbolism! In fact it's all they've got. Brits generally hanging on to a lovely 100 year old man. Europe or Japan own most of the cars built there. Water and power owned by the French. Freight trains by the Germans and I believe 40% of the train passenger services in most parts of the UK. So Toms comments are totally out of touch when he said "Spitfires got angry".....it's not modern day reality. I've just told you why. As for WW2? More reality. After Dunkirk Brits were finished. Luckily for them Japan bombed Pearl Harbour. Thousands of GIs spilt blood on Normandy beaches. Just watch "Saving Private Ryan". USA Bombers were technologically superior. They flew at heights where they were hard to hit! Their bombs were bigger! AND those 19-21 yrs old pilots. Just kids after all. IF it wasn't for all that Brits would be speaking German. Reality! You've never acknowledged it or said thanks! You'd rather the myth of the nice old man, who in reality took his orders from an American at Normandy. Then off to sort out the Japanese.....ALONE! Why bother? Because you've just typified what I've just told you; haven't you?

yeah but notice the "Trigger's Broom" comment from the interviewer! (ie; all the parts have been replaced, so effectively; brand new planes!)

@@steffanhoffmann8937 You really don't have a clue about the British. As for boasting about your education, you demonstrate a complete lack of humility and class.

@@steffanhoffmann8937 If you want to discuss the Second World War then where were you between 1939 and 1941 when most of Europe but not the UK fell to the Germans? Being cowardly, that's where you were.
