i love how you can see a la la land, amélie, paddington, & roman holiday posters in liam’s house telling us where he’s going before revealing them. as well as stylizing each city to the style of each film. 10/10 incredible easter egg
I once went to Paris and the cookie from the bakery part of the place was sooooooo good it tasted like a Christmas cookie and tons of chocolate and it had the perfect crunch
Using different color palette for different countries... And editing like show we watch on a tourism channel... Liam's editing skills evolved so subtly that you need a minute to realise that.. His creative choices really inspires me
Dear Liam Thompson, its been four freaking months and I’m missing you so bad. I need you to upload a new vlog rn. i hope you’re doing good though - love, your electric FAN.
as an Italian I can’t tell you guys how patriotic I started feeling out of nowhere when he said he was enjoying our happy meal, I swear for some reason Liam’s validation is more important to me than the world cup lmao
Can we take a minute to appreciate the filming and editing here?? Truly my new golden standard for editing videos. Well done!! Also Liam’s laugh is just the best😊❤
For some reason by 24:22 , his genuine excitement to watch the trains go by combined with the music made a feeling of childlike nostalgia for wonder for the world well up from within me. Fr fr. This choreography and shooting was immaculate, and makes me want to travel all over. Liam's child past self must be so happy.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate the details of the aspect ratios, colour filters and shots used in each country? Liam you've outdone yourself!! Such a fun video!!
Been a fan for awhile and this dude is a rare RU-vidr who didn’t lose his style when he got popular. I still throughly enjoy watching each video as I did all that time ago.
RU-vid is so filled with toxic, negative, low-effort content these days and it’s really bumming me out. Liam’s channel on the other hand is just so refreshing & has quickly become a favourite. Every video Liam makes leaves me feeling lighter, uplifted & energized. Thanks for your great vibes, dude!
Agreed, RU-vid is full of garbage. BUT, the trick is to NOT watch that garbage, and then pretty soon, it won't be recommended to you, and you never have to think about it again. I spend a decent amount of time on RU-vid and by this point, RU-vid knows that I will never watch toxic or scummy content, so it generally shows me content I enjoy. Of course, it misses the mark from time to time, but it's been recommending really decent channels, many of which are not that popular at the moment, and resonated with me. So it's doing SOMETHING right. And as a side note, avoiding that toxic, mentally draining internet content (and this applies outside of RU-vid too) is great for your mental health, I can confirm that from my own personal experience. Liam's channel is one of those awesome recommendations. He's a great content creator, just as you said, and it's the kind of content I really appreciate. No BS, just a guy having fun and doing something he enjoys while entertaining us viewers. I respect that. RU-vid knows what I want to see.
you never know what youtube can find for you. I get a varied selection. interior design, christmas,small business owners and trains. my son is a train nerd with a very very small youtube channel so I suspect that is natural. but suddenly I am watching a scottish dude trim cows hooves. fascinating. and I agree if you dont watch shitty things it doesnt get recommended.@@BakaTaco
Dear Liam, WHERE YA GONE MATE? You haven’t uploaded in 5 months and I am coming to check up on you. You good? Family Alright? Your my fav RU-vidr and haven’t uploaded in months….. HAS ANYTHING BAD HAPPENED? ARE YOU DEAD???? Please respond buddy boi. As a member of the public we are getting concerned. If you’ve ran out of ideas I have some: Dress up as a chicken nugget and try and break world records in McDonald’s, Go to Africa and try to see all the safari animals you loved as a kid, Go feed penguins at the zoo, And Make the most amazing halloween costume you ever dreamed of as a kid but in April/May. But all those jokes aside, where are you bud? Please post soon or we will loose our minds 😅 -Cookie Ducky
Look, I don't even like McDonald's, I never had a Happy Meal as a kid so I can't even claim nostalgia bias, but I was 100% invested in this journey. The concept is absolutely outrageous, the execution just insanely delightful, and I just love to see a fella following his dream! I can only imagine younger Liam's pride for what he would later achieve!
the way liam had 14 hours to prepare for his flight and still ended up leaving in a rush amazes me ps i love this video, something about the editing is just so good it’s like i’m watching a movie ❤❤❤
@@eleanor.. i didnt mean to assume anything, i was just pointing out that this is a common adhd symptom. Btw ADD doesn't exist anymore, it's just ADHD now
Happy meals have gotten healthier since I was a child (in Australia). We had the choice of a cheeseburger or chicken nuggets, with fries and a soft drink. The drink didn't go in the box, it was poured fresh into a cup with a lid & straw.
That's also how U.S. happy meals used to be. They started adding the healthier options here in 2004, if I remember right. Ours also used to include a package of cookies, which have been replaced by the apple slices.
Most people in Asia are lactose intolerant. Interesting fact: Northern and Western European countries have significantly less people with lactose intolerance than anywhere in the world because we’ve genetically adapted to digesting dairy
@@SarahSB575i ate and drank lactose my whole life (im from Finland) and when i was 17 i got diagnosed with intolerance haha. I was in so much pain my whole life 😭
What I love is that Liam spent a month traveling around the world and instead of 900 videos from each country that mirrors what every other RU-vidr shows us… we get to see happy meals and how much fun Liam shares with us! Liam, every video you put out is worth the wait and someday I would love to shake your hand!
My inner Aussie 4yr old is delighted that you did this Liam! And that's saying something at 46yrs old and now rather jaded/grumpy bc I'm not getting enough novel experiences anymore. Thank you sir for all the wonderful effort in this! ❤🎆👋👋👋
Surprised that Liam actually went inside the countries and got hotels and everything considering most of the airports he went to probably had McDonald’s in them lol
Surprised? Bro he ain’t gonna travel across the globe to several different countries just to not leave the airport. This definitely was a travel holiday to explore the world, with Liam just using some of the time to film for his channel. Ain’t no way you genuinely believe his sole purpose for all this travel was to eat a few happy meals, no, it was for the travel.
Honestly at this point if Liam wasn't uploading any videos for a few months, I'd never be able to actually guess what kind of video he'd do next lol everything is just too random and I love it😂 And as about the video, I think each countries happy meal tastes completely different so perhaps.. there might be a true happiest meal somewhere in the world you haven't taste yet..? Like for example my country it's filled with fried chicken and rice, it's just too different.
hey Liam, I’m sure you will not see this, but I’m going to point this out anyway, you saved me, I was feeling suicidal for a while, but when i saw your videos, they made my mood go up A LOT. Thanks for these amazing videos.
I was on a trip to Italy about a year ago, and I went to the massive McDonald's from the video. Liam really didn't do it justice, the thing is like 3 stories or something and I genuinely got lost there with the pure McDonald's glory.
I have to comment just because of the amount of effort Liam put into this video... and all his videos. I always have to convince myself that Liam isn't lying and has indeed gone through with his crazy ideas. Love it!
I love how your brain works and then you just go and do it. It’s makes me so happy to see you just live your best (and slightly weird) life, never change!
youre one of my comfort youtubers, i was born in london and lived in my childhood home until recently. my dad was born in new zealand and i think two years ago now my parents announced we would be moving to new zealand. i went through really bad depression for a while because I never wanted to move out of my childhood home, and its still something i cry about, but knowing i now live in the same city as one of my favourite youtubers makes me so much happier. (it also made me really happy when i found out you listen to queen lol) but honestly youve helped me so much.
Thanks for the vid. It is fun that the Happy Meal is different everywhere. In Germany, we can have chicken nuggets for the meal and a salad, if we wish. A desert and a drink are always included. The weird thing for you would probably be that this drink can also be a mixture out of apple juice and carbonated water which is quite common in Germany and called Apfelschorle. You can always get a toy or a little book with the meal. But the little book would probably not have wooed you a lot. The book is in German.
“It’s what little Liam would have wanted” Me trying to justify all the bad decisions i make in life all because i want to heal and satisfy my inner child
Liam, love your videos, first off. The cucumbers are slimy because even when they are cut up they are kinda still alive and need some air and live in an aerobic environment. Once you seal them off completely, the environment becomes anaerobic and the bacteria that like that sort of thing start running the show - thus the slime. Edit: Also, you continue to inspire me. This video is a great idea to take whatever makes you happy and weave other ideas that make you happy. So good. 🧡
You might be the first person ever to choose cucumber sticks and milk from the happy meal at a British McDonald's 🤣 most people go fries, coke, and nuggets I think hahaha
I’m going to be honest with u Liam. I truly understand that this is none of my business, and ur personal life is completely your business. But I truly was sad when I found out that u don’t upload as much. I remember when found ur channel in 2019 I watched every single video and every single day I would see if u uploaded a new video. And at that time u uploaded 1 video per week. But now it’s more like per 2 months. For example I would much rather watch not crazy videos 1 per week then 1 crazy video per 2 months. Ur probably thinking on one subscriber what is that going to do but I don’t think I’m the only one. Best regards An OG fan :)
anyone noticing he hasn't posted in a while? he used to upload like every 4 months then he started posting monthly but where are the videos he should have posted?
As an advocate from the UK, most Happy Meals are closer to 4 Nuggets, Fries and a small Coke or Orange Fruit Shoot. Other options include baby carrots/carrot fingers, and burgers, milk or water. I didn't even know they did Cucumbers. Maybe it's just London, cos I live in the North, aka anything besides London, cos that area does things differently. Maybe it's changed since I was a kid, but I always notice them when I go in and it's pretty much the same. Nowadays the toys are frequently small books or little jigsaws.
Literally from London and I still didn't know about the cucumbers option LMAO. Though that could just be because I have a set order for my happy meals so I never bothered to check other options haha.
Genuinely so happy this man keeps making content, unlike most RU-vidrs, as they gain popularity they just seem to allow the quality of their videos to go down Hill, yet Liam keeps creating incredible videos that genuinely always brings a smile to my face and I laugh out audibly
This video shows how you love and appreciate the sweet memories of you growing up on cartoons and macdonald connecting you with the things you loved it's wholsome all the way around i wish more people would talk and appreciate the good things in life more ❤❤❤
I'm stunned how every video you make is absolutely perfect and then the next one seems even more perfect... the cinematic shots you included are amazing!!
The fact that I had 2 Mcdonalds' adds within the length of this video is just perfect. (one about happy meals with cantaloops and one about a Mcmuffin)
Honestly, new life goal, to learn to be as happy of a human as Liam is, dunno what it would take or how long, but boy this man inspires me to love life.
This is actually a piece of cinematic genius. I don't know how he does it, but every shot has superb lighting, interesting aspect ratios, and I just love it.
In the US we have the choice between chicken nuggets or cheeseburger and our choices for drinks are apple juice, chocolate milk, and just regular milk.
