Great George Liverpool Cathedral 4.MP4

[@nord1486]

There were originally going to be 4 bourdon bells here called Great George, Great Paul, Great John and Great Ringo, but concerns were raised about the cost, not only for the bells but also for their maintenance, and also about whether the tower would be able to support these massive bells, so in the end only Great George and the larger Great Paul were cast, but there was no room for Great Paul so that bell was moved to London where it now hangs in St Paul's Cathedral.

[@dhtelevision]

Those 2 more bells were a memorial to the Beatles

[@FranzFerdinandVIII]

i got the common thread btw the 4 bourdons: Paul McCartney (Great Paul), George Harrison (Great George), John Lennon (Great John), and Ringo Starr (Great Ringo)!

[@nord1486]

@Carvey Maximillian You’re absolutely right. But there’s definitely no Great Ringo.

[@GreatBritishBells]

@Real Madrid CR7 Great Peter was cast in 1927 specifically for York Minster by John Taylor & Co. in Loughborough.

[@campanerosdelaltoojaezcara6761]

Great!!!

[@Read1526]

I'm surprise you were still alive to record this video! The bells were up!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jimjames9859]

me too you were under the slider of one of the bells thats up extremly close very dangerous thing to do. do you know that a slight knock on that slider or had you of touched it the bell would of come off the balance swung round and killed you outright by the force of it . Had the bells been down youd be safe. I know this cause iam a bellringer myself and ive been ringing tower bells for 27 years so i have years of experience.

[@pizza59]

​​@monster0929f a bell is up is very dangerous, just one slide it could crack ur head and die

[@tots16]

Does Great George ever toll with the other bells?

[@ringerowen4039]

Very rarely

[@LandoVr0527]

What times does he ring

[@ameliaviolet6970]

@eruclogan the bell isant ugly coz the tone it's just how it sounds

[@splittieful]

Looks like george only uses clapper to ring it

[@user-ht5tv5bc7p]

This is so scary and very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very big and heavy

[@Amtrak600]

The quality of the video is so creepy

[@jasonburnet9181]

Is it the lowest toned bell in the UK?

[@shiningarmor2838]

I think so. It seems to play a low C#

[@ameliaviolet6970]

+Shining Armor how can u tell? the bell is tolled its a mition bell & the website doesn't say wat it is but my sic ence teacher told me its a low c# major my school is not far from the cathdral /& the bells canbe herd even this bell

[@RingerJake]

+Amelia Violet There's no such note as C# Major. It's either C# or C Major.

[@jasonburnet9181]

+Ringer Jake But there is a cord C# Major

[@RingerJake]

+Ringer Jason But it's either C# or C for a bell. There may be that for other instruments.

[@joeritchie7286]

[@ianjames6622]

next time if people choose to see this great bell for safetys sake ask the ringers to ring the bells down 1st dont go near bells that are up that could of been fateful if you knocked the slider that bell above you could have swung right at you and killed you

[@chadbeverly4926]

So they bell isnt swung to ring only the clapper is pulled, interesting

[@ringerowen4039]

Yes the bell would take a lot of effort to ring from a wheel plus the ropes wouldn’t be able to handle it

[@jimjames9859]

if you going to film this big bell id advise you to do it when the bells are down who ever filmed this is very lucky you were near a slider and stay of a bell thats up Extremely dangerous had that bell of gone off the balance it would of killed the cameraman.

[@jimjames9859]

good job there were no bellringers about to ring as well youd of been a goner

Amelia Violet well you wrong about being major. When they tune bells using Simpson tuning they use a minor third not a major third

very dangrous video are you aware you were on a slider of a bell thats up that could of gone of the balance and you would of been killed never go near bells that are up in a tower

[@jimjames9859]

you then moved to another bell that was up and went under the slider and stay with your camera under a bell thats up extremely Dangerous

[@KryptoAviation]

@@jimjames9859 he has headphones

[@jimjames9859]

@@KryptoAviation even more dangerous then headphones is good but he needs to think about safety ive been ringing for over 29 years and i know the dangers of bells when they are up and how fatel that could of been

[@KryptoAviation]

@@jimjames9859 did he ask the ringers to go down?

[@Ian_Livesey]

I came to the comments to post the same thing. Very silly to go under the bell like that and has nothing to do with headphones. One knock of that slider and the bell would’ve taken their head clean off. It’s happened.
