I was wondering if anyone else was watching this video after 9/8/22. RIP Your Magesty. You had a long and impressive reign that will be a very difficult act to follow by any of your decendants. I think King Charles III is off to a good start considering all that he has had to do immediately after losing his beloved Mummy!
@@sarahstrong7174 She had 15 prime ministers, 3 of those were women, but only two prime made an impact in history throughout in her 70 year reign on the throne. Margaret Thatcher and Winston Churchill are some of the Prime Ministers that had a massive impact on the Queen Elizabeth II's reign as Queen.
She's 94 years old, worked on the scenes of World War II, and she's been ruling over England for almost seven decades. If that doesn't make The Queen a badass, then I don't know WHAT does! 👑💖
@@magstowens she does also technically have the most power out of everyone over the uk. Obviously she won't want to exercise that alot for risk of being taken down.
@@ambhat3953 which cult has 2 billion followers. You have to understand what Islam actually is instead of saying it's a cult. Its a religion. I hope you understand that.
@@ambhat3953 Drugs, they have no ideology, no known administrations, no culture, this comparison is irrelevant. Islam is a religion just like Hinduism, just like Christianity, just like Judaism and Buddhism. And EVERY religion has some kind of extremist minority, its just that Islam's extremists have been highlighted a lot in the media.
What I think is badass was in her comming of age speech where she said ' I declare before you all that my life , wether it be long or short will be dedicated to your service' and nearly 75 years later she's still keeping that promise
She impressed me in 2012 during her Diamond Jubilee celebrations when she stood on the Royal barge in the rain for hours out of respect for the hundreds of people who had lined the banks of the Thames to see her. Best part is no one else on the barge was allowed to be seated while she was still standing, so EVERYONE had to stand on the barge in the rain for hours 😅👏
@@katienewman5461 the Last Emperor of China, Aisinjaro Pu Yi was only 3 when he became emperor... but he didn't get to enjoy his reign as Elizabeth did...
@@katienewman5461 try looking for a documentary of The Last Emperor of China... also, look for the movie The Last Emperor by Franco Zeffireli... this movie won the Best Picture Oscar...
I got to meet the Queen back in 2010 - my mother gave me the first name of Elizabeth in her honor so I was presented to Her Majesty as Miss Elizabeth Bardsley. Prince Philip was there as well and he liked the dress I was wearing. It's a moment I will never forget. :)
@@redshadow4146 Elizabeth is my first name. Victoria is the name I go by. I'd also appreciate it if you could read my comment properly as well as spell my last name correctly.
@@nicolelawless3199 I found him quite charming. I always liked his sense of humor as well. When I watched his funeral I wanted to give the Queen a hug. Seeing her sit there all alone broke my heart.
Disregard the title, her majesty being at her age and still currently in service, having gone through many difficult times yet still standing.. I think she's an epitome of dedication, hard work and service. I have so much respect and inspiration towards her. God bless the Queen.
Her service brings me a lot of pride as a British citizen to go from a little girl playing in her dad's office, her uncle as king and her unaware she could ever be queen to being one of the greatest monarchs this country has seen is amazing
She was also very stoic and kind when Princess Diana passed away, addressing the world with sympathies for understanding that Diana was “the people’s princess “.
Not to mention she was the one consoling William and Harry after Diana’s death. People wanted her to address her death sooner, but she put family before duty in this rare instance.
@@rubberducky4074 yeah people were really mad at her for taking too long but not realizing that some kids lost their mother. The Queen’s inner mother and grandmother jumped out of her. She knew what was important and what had to be done. Not to mention how horrific and publicized it was
@@guifdcanalli she did what was best I did think she did gavor diana but you can't help.everyone when it csme to mental health or the accident.. She seems like a decent people who worked as hard to set a good example.idc how rich she was she is being good lady.
The message she was sending by jumping behind the wheel of that jeep with the leader of Saudi Arabia! Obviously done with pure intent to show how a woman could skillfully maneuver such a vehicle, all while carrying on polite conversation and under the pretense of cordiality. Perfection!
From what I've heard she was doing what's called "mudding" which is an extra level of hilarity. Having been a regular serving member of a military motor pool in WW2 she mustve known how to completely tear down and restore a classic 4x4 jeep. Legend has it she continued to do basic scheduled maintenance like oil and spark plug changes into her senior years on her favorite range Rover she drove that Saudi around in.
The Queen showed that badasses can be eloquent and polite. In fact, her brand of badassery was always to use etiquette to make her points all the more meaningful.
SHE FELT THREATNED AS THE ATTENTION WAS DIRECTED TO DIANA ,SO SHE MURDERED HER .THE SAME SHE DID TO MARGARET INSTEAD SHE POISIONED HER.AND MADE HER IMOBILE. OPEN YOUR MIND TO THE TRUTH. BITCH WAS LIVING JUST LIKE YOU 'THE PUBLIC PURSE'
American here and I want to say on my behalf and many other Americans, we loved and respected your Queen and are deeply saddened by her passing. She was a wonderful Lady and inspiration to young women. God Save the King.
@@luke-THC I like how you think pitbulls are badass lol. I have one, and he's a lazy ass who sleeps on the couch all day, and HATES physical activity. He's literally all bark and no bite lmao.
@@luke-THC pitbulls can be scary but thats mostly cause of the stereotype, if you train it well(or bad) their ADORABLE and lazy. And even corgis can be scary sometimes
My own Grandmother was about 19 when Queen Elizabeth was crowned,she recalls clebrating the news,shes 89 now,and is saddend by the news,remembering many of the Queens speaches on TV,i wish all Brits the best of luck during these troubling times.
After all these years, my favorite image of the Queen is in her green raincoat, Wellies and a silk scarf driving a Range Rover. She being capable of repairing the vehicle is just icing on the cake. Well done, Elizabeth II!
So sad for her loss. She left a long, complicated, and interesting legacy. May she find peace and love with her husband in the next life. RIP Queen Elizabeth II

I'd be looking forward to the Queen's Centenary... remember her mother, the Queen Mother Elizabeth, also hit the big 100... let's not look forward to her passing... she's not going anywhere soon... the pandemic may be the best thing to happen to her longevity as she is isolated most of the time...
@@alexeimscruz2893 her mother almost hit 102! I pray that Queen Elizabeth still lives for many years, perhaps even more than her mother! When this pandemic started I was panicking over the Queen's safety!
Oh, My Goddess, I have soo much respect for this woman!!! Instead of just sitting back basking in her glory she did sooo much.....esp. impressed that she was often so humble , adventuress, and even served in WWII!!! Blessings, Dear Queen...you will be missed but never forgotten!!
i will say while the crown does pin onto a lot of stuff, you don’t get the full story or the full truth. the queen herself has confirmed that, she genuinely watches the show. you can find it all out online
As an American that was born an empath and love for just about everyone it deeply saddens me I wasn't able to make a trip across the pond to bid farewell to my Queen. She was such a pillar for the whole civilized world she was the one constant never abused her titles helped her people taxed her own wages and even recycled food at the palace how amazingly blessed were we all to witness her? Immensely
That is why Queen Elizabeth will always be remembered as the most iconic monarch in British History. Sorry Charles and Wills but Her Majesty is and will always be the Legend… THE GOAT.
Serving as a mechanic during WWII is particularly "badass". Staying together when the stranger entered her bedroom and the blanks were fired at her on her horse was also very strong under fire, however harmless a blank may be, Elizabeth didn't know it was a blank at the time of the sound that spooked her horse, understandably. She calmed down her horse and carried on....
I know, right?!? When I saw the photos of her sitting by herself at Prince Philip’s funeral (due to the pandemic), I literally couldn’t stop crying. They had been married for 73 years. She looked so completely lost and so alone. As a happily married woman of 18+ years, I cannot fathom the thought of being without my beloved husband. I adore him immensely, and it breaks my heart to even THINK about living life without him by my side.
A lot of credit for her reign comes down to the sensible way she was raised by George VI and the Queen Mum, whose family values helped Britain recover from the debacle of Edward VIII's short reign. Albert was a far better king than he himself thought and from what I've seen, heard, and read, his people came to love him and his family. I still go back and watch National Geographic's film, "The King Who Fooled Hitler," which told the little known story of how George VI, his Queen, and Princess Elizabeth participated in wartime plans to deceive the Nazis. It's a story every bit as exciting as any adventure movie. Elizabeth II comes from a _family_ of badasses! Happy New Year, everyone! Stay safe.
being the last surviving monarch of WWII has given her the solid foundation to reign with inner strength through the years... being isolated during the pandemic? that's just peanuts compared to WWII... try living through the war years...
@@alexeimscruz2893 yeah her family refused to leave Britain behind while Britain was getting blitzed during WWII. I believe it was Windsor Castle that got bombed while they resided there and they still refused to leave. Then she went on to join the British forces in the war as soon as she turned 18. They also lived on rations like the rest of Britain. Her father was what Britain needed at the time. And she went on to serve her country for the rest of her life
We should all contemplate how lucky we are to have lived during the reign of the World's most famous monarch. 1000 years from now. Elizabeth will still be the world's most famous monarch.

Did you know that The Queen asked to play herself in the James Bond scene in the palace? It was going to be played by an actress but her Majesty wanted to do it 😊👸
There's also the fact she served in World War 2 (as a driver and mechanic) and she apparently has a great sense of humour. I read somewhere that the James Bond opening ceremony of the London Olympics was originally going to star Helen Mirren as Queen Elizabeth but when the Queen got wind of it she wanted to do it herself and apparently kept it a secret from her grandkids to surprise them. Also, Princess Anne has said in an interview that years ago on a trip to Australia, a group of university students once presented the Queen with a gag gift of a mechanical hand - a stuffed glove on a lever which waved back and forth - for when her real hand got tired of waving. According to Princess Anne, the Queen thought it was hilarious and had it on display at Balmoral for quite some time until it mysteriously disappeared.
Nice list of the Queen's bravery and spunk. I love scenes where Phillip pretended to be a guard, her love of her dogs, and generally being herself. She will be missed.

I have always thought she was a badass, beautiful and a very intelligent Lady.. Even though I am a Texan, I felt a deep loss when she passed. Rest in peace Queen Elizabeth, you will go down in history as the most honorable Monarch to reign..
The Prince of Wales will be a good King...But by definition...his reign is likely to be a short one. Prince Charles has a first class record as Prince of Wales, his Duchy of Cornwall estates were in ruins when he inherited them...with empty farms and many seriously poor tenants. His priority has been to build up those estates and now he will hand over to Prince William... An amazing Duchy of Cornwall success story... Lets just hope it goes forward because few people would put in the work that's required...Charles normally works15 hrs days !! People who say the wish that Prince Charles or The Queen would hand the Crown over to William...by-passing Charles. Haven't a clue what's involved to be a monarch Thankfully Both The Queen and Prince Charles do...they want to give William and Kate as much time as possible before they have that " royal net" cast over them. William was so needful of Prince Harry and his wife...to help... It is set to be the smallest "Royal Family" ever... Once the Queen dies... The Queen had her Uncles and Cousins working along side her...Who will work with William?
@@hotoneinspai I wonder about Charles becoming head of the church, as he is divorced? Maybe .. he will be King, but his son William will be head of the church?
@@Chuck0856 He is an old Fuddy Duddy just like his father. Mind you he has certainly waited long enough to be King. He was raised in a much more regal time & the thoughts of the Royals getting divorced was never discussed during his life. Times have certainly changed with the Royals marrying Divorces but go back a few hundreds years & cousins married cousins - just like in the Pharoah's ruling of Egypt
Queen Elizabeth ll had 4 children yet she maintained the tiniest of waists which was quite envied by many women. She has always looked so beautiful in all of her Royal gowns as well as her everyday dresses. God Bless the Queen 👑❤️🙏🏻 🏴
So grateful that I grew up under her rule. Seeing a woman in such a position of power in my formative years really helped empower me and other young girls I think.
Lovely lady! Told my history students today in Singapore that she served in WWII and they were very impressed. She was Singapore's queen from 1952 through to independence.
The world won't be the same without a Queen Elizabeth. Our Queen for 70 years. She is at rest with her beloved Phillip. She's done her duty - even more than expected - she's tired and needs to rest now. God save our Queen. God bless our King.
I didn't know about the shooting, she was very very calm, and controlled the horse like a pro 😱 I'm in awe really. She is a very tough and controlled person. Very admirable. Personally I would have fainted right there, and fall off the horse 100%. 😭
I actually think we have to give alot of credit to the Queen for how successful the first lockdown was last April. Compared to the bumbling of the government in the second wave with dominic cummings. The first wave was actually coordinated fairly well as soon as the decision was made and public compliance was much stronger and it gave us time to figure out what the hell was going on and how best to deal with it.
If you are not impressed by this amazing woman's accomplishment's for the "so called...weaker of the sexes" you are indeed brain dead! This incredible woman is incredible in every way and I admire her with nothing short of awe! She has taken on her duties in everyway imaginable and succeeded beyond all measure! HRH The Queen of England is the most admirable human being on this planet! All my love to you, your Majesty. God Save the Queen!
Give Charles a chance. I'm not a fan of his, but I can see that he's trying his best. He's not as cool as Princess Anne, but there are people who just can't be cool no matter how much they tried.
