HARRY POTTER LONDON ADVENTURE

[@renevogt9965]

Well...I'm crying. What a cool gift to give Luke on, say, his 11th birthday.

[@TheAbnormis96]

Agreed, but how could they not introduce Harry Potter to him before he's 11? I think I had the books read to me from I was 6 or 7 :)

[@renevogt9965]

Maria Oseberg Hansen I just meant THAT PATICULAR book. It's special.....and I am jealous. Lol

[@syverence8686]

It took me till 7th grade to start it

[@kellyfurman6309]

Rene Vogt omg YESSSSS

[@fletcherk2609]

LXIV me too I read it all in the month of October and watched each movie of the book I read on the weekends

[@SeamusGorman4]

4:32 OMG

[@laurencampbell5893]

Seamus Gorman hi seamus dusk houses are real 😂😂😂

[@JonathanCarlin]

You're back!

[@ozzicat2295]

Seamus Gorman XD the friendship is real between u guys XD

[@laurencampbell5893]

Seamus Gorman I bet it was nice not having to travel 1000’s if miles to meet each other this time

[@JonathanCarlin]

Well i mean.. we still had to

[@markusblonski8569]

I love how he gets so emotional about sharing Harry Potter with Luke

[@rawdaaljawhary4174]

I love how J said, "I know Luke is going to be in Gryffindor because he's been so brave already." What a beautiful, heartwarming message to your son. Thank you for sharing such a special trip with us.

[@violajames]

As the parent of a child who has just started reading the Harry Potter books (she's nine), I can tell you that your heart will soar when they start talking about it and reading it, and when they tell you about their favorite characters, and share those feelings you felt the first time *you* read the books. There is *no* equal to the pride and joy that you'll feel when your child goes on the same journey you once took into a world that changed your life. Loved this vlog. Of course I cried. Props to Beth for being Super-Mom and letting you have this experience.

[@theillytellez3761]

what a joy!!! i have a nephew , so i better get started buying the books for him

[@alexsurro7676]

J is such a good father and Beth is an amazing mother ❤️

[@calebhon1480]

Does that make me luke?

[@James352_]

I misread Beth as Ben at first 😂

[@bridgxmc9393]

You should write a message to Luke to include in the book. If you don't want to write directly in the book, write it on a paper and stick it in the book, but if you write it on the front cover he can never lose it and he'll have your message in you're first book to him 💛❤

[@Natalie-101]

I love how you said "For Luke" at 5:46 ! As if we would have suspected it was for Beth otherwise XD

[@alma_najem]

[@rawdaaljawhary4174]

Ahaha my thoughts exactly. It was so cute! He has to distinguish between the two special people in his life. ^_^

[@bekah5935]

8:09 the girl trying to get out of camera 😂

[@aidankostbade]

Bekah Bradford that's a girl

[@harpy5677]

Dylan Baldock Yes, we are all socially awkward over here.

[@infinity2306]

ThemePark Wizard so true 😂

[@murmistheman]

I thought "just two guys in a ...lift" was going to be my favorite moment in this vlog, until the end. THE FEELS J. THE. FEELS.

[@toriiwoodd]

aww what a sweet ending❤️

[@sprinklesthecat6900]

Omg. That last part made me cry. You are an amazing father and you have a beautiful family. I love what you and Ben are doing with Harry Potter. You guys are just amazing.

[@nichedges8630]

I loved the 'Just two guys in a ... Lift.'

[@AlfaEcho]

Nic Ravenclaw :(

[@SimplySusan1211]

As soon as I saw that book, I started crying. I knew it was for Luke. You’re such a great dad, J, and this honestly makes me super excited for the future when I have kids and get to share what’s been a gigantic part of my life with them. We love you like crazy.

[@raptorus7773]

Well, you predicted it J. I am crying now, I guess you can add prophet to your repertoire.

[@BeCuzImBatman]

Raptorus77 I want him him to be a Hufflepuff to really shake Beth and J

[@theoh9290]

Haha yea so do I

[@rmsmith7739]

6:08 I was crying!! Also loved seeing Seamus!

[@MaYa-mr5ul]

RMSmith 773 can someone pls explain this joke to me 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@rmsmith7739]

MaYa 2736 In England we call 'elevators' lifts. And in previous videos every time they are in an 'elevator' they say "just two guys in an elevator!" And are really happy when they say 'elevator' but this time they said lift and sounded sad because we call them lifts and it doesn't work.

[@MaYa-mr5ul]

Ok thanks for my ignorance 😂😂 I normally watch just their main channel

[@AlfaEcho]

Just two guys in a- Lift... :(

[@laurakelly8900]

I know! It was so funny

[@danyellx615]

Aw I’ve just got to the part where you’re crying for lukes book and I’m crying with you, I love you and Beth so much; you’re such lovely people, I wish you both all the happiness in the world x

[@cassandramuller7337]

You made me cry, J. That is such a beautiful thing to do for your son. Also with the vlogs he can actually go back to see what you originally said to him. This is soooo beautiful and why you and Ben are my absolute Favs. You are an inspiration for me. To go after my dreams and try to do what I love for a living. To not just settle for something. And to help me get through the rough time I had this past half year. When I see the joy in your and Ben's eyes in each and every video, I sit there and think to myself: "I want this. This look on my face when I do my job." And when I feel that little sting of envy I remember that you worked hard for it and that I'll need to do the same, but it also gives me the heart, courage and strength to try and work for my dreams. So thank you for everything, J and Ben. And also Beth, for being ok to share your lives with us a bit. It gives me hope and the will to find the happy way through life. Thanks and much love Cassandra

[@NicholasSteMarie]

It got so emotional at the end I almost cried.

[@christinaanderson748]

I love how Seamus was casually telling everyone to subscribe 😂

[@YineTime]

I sound crazy but this vlog was one of the most emotional experiences I’ve had all year (I mean the year just started, but still.) I lived in London for a few months when I studied abroad and it kills me how much I miss it. I went to every hp location ben and J went to and more (except for the HP exhibit at the British Library because it wasn’t there) and getting to see it all again... dead. I’m also so grateful they showed us some of the exhibit in the vlog because I was so jealous that other people got to see it. So I was super emotional, and then J got emotional at the end.... ugh I’m just a mess. Thanks J

[@Diandra2011]

This actually made me cry. The love you have for your family is beautiful.

[@HaplessHannah]

Jon it’s so sweet that Harry Potter means so much to you and you want to share that with Luke. You tearing up at the end talking about how much luke means to you hit me right in the feels. Bless you all 😭❤️

[@victoriajones1575]

The last 2 minutes had me bawling! So proud of baby Luke progress

[@JoyfulMenace]

Oh my gosh that ending was so heartwarming!

[@dawn8293]

I love how he can't stop talking about Luke, even when he's talking about something else, it's like, nope. Luke.

[@SuperHuggz]

J u made me tear up at the end when u were talking about getting the book for Luke. Im sure he will love it once he is old enough to understand. He will for sure be a Gryffindor. OMG Seamus! Hi Seamus.

[@amyisles437]

I really liked the bit where you were talking about the lighting situation in the hotel and the "just two guys in a LIFT" part and the Seamus cameo and the history of magic exhibit looks really cool especially the cauldron. But the best bit was you talking about Luke and reading the Philosopher's Stone to him. You made me cry. You are both great parents and you are taking care of each other (which is really important) as well as Luke. Love you all and Love all your channels x

[@meredith1313]

When you cried I started to cry too because it’s just such a meaningful and touching gift and experience 😭❤️ so happy you guys are all happy and healthy and doing well!

[@Brian-ol3fx]

that real dad moment at the end... its just gets better and better as they keep growing up, love the Vlog keep up the good work.

[@MerleNauland]

okay but the book part made me SO emotional, this is such a cute idea and I hope Luke will appreciate it when he is older!

[@katiep9509]

J, why did you have to make me cry!! I maybe a 13 year old girl, but I never cry!! You accomplished making me cry, congratulations!!

[@morboed96]

Thank you so much for not cutting out your crying. That was really heartwarming. :-)

[@jessicafyler8606]

You are a very good father J. I hope little Luke loves the Harry Potter book you'll read to him when you get back.

[@JT5555]

I Think We Can Count On J Disowning Him If He Ends Up Not Liking Harry Potter.XD

[@munjee2]

Demonic Queen but if he forces it on him he'll probably won't like it

[@JT5555]

I'm Not Saying Shove It In His Face Just...Nudge It A Bit. Start By Using Harry Potter As A Bedtime Story And Giving Him Small Harry Potter Things (Like The Wand Pen). Once He's A Little Older,Then They Can Let Him Watch The Movies,Buy Him Harry Potter Costumes/A Hogwarts Cloak,Take Him To Harry Potter Events Ect. All These Small Things,Starting From When He Is A Baby Will Add Up To Harry Potter BEING His Childhood. By The Time He's Old Enough To Understand Any Of It,Harry Potter Will Have Already Been Such A Huge Part Of His Life That He'd Never Be Able To Really Let Go Of It (Even If He Actively Tried To). Plus BOTH His Parents Are Harry Potter Fans,So That Alone Will Help Make The Series Important To Him (Even If He Decides To "Rebel" Against It,J Alone Seems Like He's Be Such A Awesome Dad That I Doubt It Would Last Past His Teen Years,Before He Decides That The Series Is Such A Huge Part Of Him That He'll Never Out-Grow It. Much Like The Rest Of Us). Baby Steps.>;3

[@EmilyCheetham]

No I think the mint tea was a genuine mistake on their part. Orange juice is orange juice. Or Might be they didn’t have any orange juice?

[@JonathanCarlin]

No they did, i got it the next day.. it was served ICED

[@haleyfravel8985]

You officially have me in tears. Love that you're saving that version for when you read it with him!

[@celestaat7]

Aaaand I'm crying. What a wonderful gift for Luke.

[@Vegvisir98]

I'm English and a lot of stuff you found confusing I did as well. We do have decaf coffee, that was definitely mint tea and I've never been to a hotel where you use you door card to turn the lights on. 0_0

[@maugdw]

I'm English and I've been to hotels like that

[@animefallenangel]

I've been to hotels where the door card activates your lights, but I think it's usually the more lower-upper scale hotels that does that? Or it could be a particular chain of hotels owned by a single group?

[@Tummeh]

I've only been to London once, 12 years ago and the hotel/light situation was not like that, but now I live in South Korea and most hotels that I have stayed in here in Asia have either lights/key cards or actual keys that you have to turn into the front desk every time you leave.

[@TheAbnormis96]

Almost every hotel i Europe has the door card for electricity and lights. Maybe not the super fancy, expensive ones ;)

[@tiler-maymarsden9054]

Same

[@kevincooper279]

Jonathan.... I completely understand the emotions you shared at the end of your video. Thank you for being open and brave to share your family's story with us. I was like #21! Woo Who! BlackJack!

[@alyshadeshae]

I'm so excited for you and Ben to have been able to participate in this, but I'm even more excited that you were able to get that book for you and Luke. I hope he grows to be as much a Harry Potter fan as you are! I started crying along with you and I don't even have tiny humans to have triggered it.

[@richieangel8150]

I was so hoping they would say "lift"! Didn't disappoint.

[@nickigoodbread6088]

My son had a pretty rough go of entering the world, a lot like your son Luke. If you EVER need somebody to tall to, I'd love to listen. I'm not a KZbin creator, but I can't tell you how much your videos helped me get through hospital stays during my pregnancy, labor, and an emergency C-Section for my little man. Seeing what a great father you are (and what a great mommy Beth is) is so refreshing and inspiring! My husband and I are very proud Potterheads (a Hufflepuff and Gryffindor, respectively.) But we love all things Disney, Star Wars, Potter, Pixar, name it! Thank you both endlessly for making videos. You seriously make hard days so much easier. (Also, my little.boy had to do breathing treatments and LOVES watching your videos while hooked to his nebulizer. Haha.)

[@hannahollihan]

I'm not crying, YOU'RE crying... so precious

[@shelbybraman1956]

I love u Jonathan and u have such a great dad!!! I love u so much and it's awesome and u probably missed him while u were gone!!!! I love u guys as a family!!! Love u guys so much

[@melissad4976]

When I explain my love for Harry Potter to my boyfriend (who unfortunately wasn't able to grow up alongside Harry Potter himself), I always get THIS emotional about it. There's just something (magically) amazing for those of us who grew up with this series, and I am so happy to have gotten the chance. Watching this vlog made me so so so happy! Thanks for sharing the experience with us!

[@dantheracer99]

Awhhh J!!! The love and bond you share with Luke is something incredibly special and something you need to hold onto for the rest of your life. He is a beautiful little boy and you're going to create a lot of happy Harry Potter Memories together i'm sure! Luke's going to be the greatest Gryffindor the world has seen; not to mention he's awesome parents to guide him on his journey! :D :D :D

[@kathleenc4040]

When he started crying while talking about sharing the Harry potter world with his son, it made me start to cry! My boys will be 15 & 17 this year and I still tear up from when they were born. You are already a great dad- it only gets better from here (until they start to talk back to you lol )!!!

[@sarahabbott8013]

Jonathan.. if you cry about luke I’m going to cry.. and I don’t even have a kid

[@shelbybraman1956]

Sarah Abbott same here

[@jsnidarich89]

I love sharing Harry Potter with my son. It was such a big part of my childhood hood and it makes me so happy it's part of his. It makes my heart happy when hes playing and I catch him humming the Harry Potter theme.

[@jasperella274]

oh my goodness J this video made me laugh out loud and cry at the same time. love you guys!

[@Julia-iz9jv]

Your speech at the end made me cry, it was so sweet

[@MionDesukaMusic]

Your reaction to the philisopher's stone is so ultimately heartwarming!

[@negachin7606]

❤️💙❤️ you can tell that Luke (and Beth) are the best things for him

[@k8ln713]

No!!!! 😢 you started to make me tear up when you talked about getting the Gryffindor edition of the Philosopher's Stone. I think its so awesome you wanted to inaugurate Luke's (eventual) first time reading HP with that edition. He's going to appreciate it so much! I was totally extra & had bought all 4 house editions if the Philosopher's Stone (even though im a Hufflepuff) lol! Im a collector 😊 I think its so cool you had an opportunity to visit the History of Magic exhibit in London & work on a project for it. Im from NYC & the History of Magic exhibit is coming here i think in October this year so I cannot wait for it. Looking forward to the next vlog!!

[@ahmberry22]

J... Thank you for letting us in on your little family! I have shed so many tears for and with you! So excited that you got to have this awesome experience!

[@IshimaruTsubaki]

so emotional... I almost cried at the end as well. Please keep up the vlogs :)

[@chloe3732]

Aw thats so sweet getting the book for Luke and being able to share The philosopher's stone with him at some point is so lovely xx

[@wearjacks]

these vlogs are sooo fun to see, even if they make me cry sometimes... im so exited to follow along your week every week!

[@Melzyz105]

Awwwww he is already so in love with Luke it's so adorable!!! I know he'll love Harry Potter as much as you and Beth!!

[@d_dave7200]

Decaf is definitely a thing, even if not everywhere will have it. I'm thinking they just couldn't understand your accents :p

[@Rockyagi]

This whole family including (uncles, grandparents, etc.) is just really sweet. :)

[@Miriam-ob8tz]

Cool little Easter egg there SuperCarlinbrothers! 3:49 you're getting almost as good as Pixar!

[@amybechan2213]

[@aditi8445]

Tatataco Is Tasty where?????

[@kathygoodman6159]

I'm not crying, you're crying. My son is your age and my daughter was a teacher when the books came out. She found out about the books and my son and I read them together sitting in my bed. Sharing this world with your son when it was such a big part of your life will be so special, Jonathan. I love seeing how emotional you are about it. My youngest grandchild (girl, age 10) just started reading the first book and we were talking about it at Christmas. It was so much fun seeing it through a child's eyes again. I'm so jealous that you guys got to do these tours. My son, his son (boy, age 14) and I were supposed to go to Disney World and Universal last summer, but COVID ruined our plans. We were so excited about the trip and so devastated when we had to cancel. The Wizarding World of Harry Potter was so high up on the things we wanted to do. I tried so hard to find a copy of Philosopher's Stone, but it seems that I can buy it here in the US. If you know of a way I can get a copy please let me know! I want all of the British books as I have all of the American books and would love to see the differences.

[@Emma-cx4ws]

J dont cry you'll make me cry

[@riffleball]

I think you may actually be a Gryffindor, because it was so brave to post that ending. And I love you for it!! Never be ashamed or embarrassed by your emotions where your child is concerned. Luke and Beth are blessed to have you, and you them.

[@lucylume]

It was cool seeing you here! The British library exhibit looks amazing!! When you are talking about the book for Luke... 😢😢😢 I was tearing up, that's got to be so emotional x when I have kids I can't wait to read hp to them 😢😢😢😢 xxx the Philosophers stone will be 30 years old when luke is 10! (I assume you'll read it to him around then) x crazy! X

[@Roekeeelk]

I was crying because of your emotions at the end. You all are doing so great!!!

[@kcallamajaji]

Oh ugh... The ending... I'm sitting at work trying not to cry along with you... Happy due date Luke!

[@trinkab]

Awww! I can't wait for Luke to fall in love with the wizarding world of Harry Potter!

[@ioshus2251]

Wait, did you see the cursed child, you should have while you were there. It’s actually amazing.

[@melmelodies8730]

Awww! Luke is just too adorable for me to handle!

[@Gabriel-Sprite]

FEELS ( 13:45 )

[@madilynf6235]

I teared up at the end while you were talking about the book for Luke. That is so sweet and thoughtful and I love it!

[@ayabeydoun1119]

"JUST TWO GUYS IN A lift" HAHAHA

[@marcushughes4697]

They just got defeated

[@kaleyrice4297]

Oh my goodness, watching you talk about your son and how you can't wait to share the world of Harry Potter with him brought tears to my eyes! I completely understand your emotion. My daughter turned one recently and the thought of reading the books to her brings me more joy then I can stand! You're a wonderful father to that little boy! I know it seems like so long before the day you get to crack open that book and say "Mr. and Mrs. Dursley, of number four , Privet Drive, were perfectly normal, thank you very much." but it truly flies by enjoy every second!

[@Waterflame]

13:10 I'm not crying... You're just blurry.

[@marcushughes4697]

U need glasses m8

[@thephonegamespecialist6883]

6:31 I started laughing like a maniac with happiness that my fav KZbinrs stood in the EXACT same spot as me!

[@Brianna-ns7iy]

Don't worry J, we're crying with you.

[@alittleshortforastormtrooper]

Completely crying right now watching this 😭 it’s so lovely to see how much you love your little family 💖 you and Ben are so deserving of all your opportunities, and it’s so fun watching you experience it all!

[@emmakenyon1967]

That guys reaction at 1:06 😂😂

[@brynleighhill4830]

I absolutely love Seamus, he's so cut and smiley around Ben and J and on his channel he's like "listen up you little sh*ts

[@babytarok]

SEAMUS!

[@princessunicorn2999]

I'm cutting onions!! And crying at 13.22!! So lovely!

[@babytarok]

at 1:18 there's that old guy in the background...what?

[@141carisma141]

The love you show for your son and your wife is the sweetest thing, and it makes you even more awesomely lovable.

[@AlfaEcho]

That thing with the card is true in most European hotels

[@mollypalko7059]

I'm glad to see the only two harry potter theorist I watch regularly are friends and do collabs with each other even though they are on different continents with at least an ocean apart.

[@nomiipoyser2878]

Am I the only one who started to cry when J did? Probably but I'm blaming it on hormones... Such an amazing vlog

[@Kimberly-hb1om]

How awesome that you guys were able to have that experience! J, man, you brought me to tears! Such a beautiful, touching moment. Thank you for sharing it with us.

[@nielsjensen6954]

the hotel room light card thing goes for all of europe:)

[@nielsjensen6954]

well i think all of europe it might just be most:)))

[@lindsey9939]

It is so amazing to see a man cry, I really respect your integrity and I think you are an awesome person. Thank you for letting others know it is okay to show emotions and be who you are!!

[@pauline8547]

This was a great vlog!

[@colleenpluck9723]

And Jon just made me cry, you guys are the best. Thanks for amazing content. It’s nice to know other 30 some year olds are just as obsessed with Harry Potter as I am.

[@angeladavidson2350]

Guys can we take a second for BEN'S COOKIES?

[@Aliketr]

Agreed

[@JunoUsername]

It's a shop near London station but cool coincidence right?

[@greenquartz]

12:58 Awwwww😢😂 that is so sweet!! Luke's going to love it.❤

[@stellasomething6114]

seamus Gorman!!!!! are you doing another video together;

[@grangerweasley]

You’re going to love reading the series with him! My kids are 6(almost 7) and 9 and it’s been wonderful sharing this world with them!

[@LP3Customs]

That would be pretty funny if Luke isn't griffendor

[@CloudKing04]

Lego Pete 3 I know I was thinking the same thing

[@theinvisibleme4104]

What if he is slytherin?

[@Kit-Kat94]

I think that’s amazing gift for Luke! Made me cry! You’re a great dad J!
