Let's be honest here...90% of the folks who requested this reaction did so for the ending lmao

[@michaelschemlab]

Guilty 🙋🏻‍♂️

[@Rebel-cd6gc]

LMAO 🤣🤣🤣🤣 you got me!

[@joeohara3447]

Been waiting to see your guys reactions to the ending 🤣

[@principalmcvicker6530]

The English Camp on San Juan island still raises the union jack every day. I used to go there a lot with my grandma who lived on San Juan Island and she would talk about the pig war lol. I think it's the only place the US government raises a british flag daily. The pig war is so obscure and forgotten, before this oversimplified video almost no one knew about it. Glad you enjoyed the story!

[@SonOfMuta]

"The only place the U.S. government raises the British flag daily" Wrong. The Hawaii flag still has the British watermark

San Juan Island is infact the only place the United States Park Service raises another countries flag, putting the Union Jack in the old British camp up every morning

[@JKM395]

Oversimplified is always worth watching. This one is quite interesting. I hope you both have a wonderful day.

[@susanpiper7431]

I went to visit the San Juan Islands 20 years ago on my honeymoon. I learned about the pig war from a one-man show at their local community theatre. He was portraying Cornel Pickett, he was extremely funny. He proudly mentioned he graduated from West Point, alright he graduated last in his class. Since the pig war was probably the seminal moment in the history of that island I wouldn't be surprised if they still had something like that at their local theater. A pretty place, probably worth a few days. We stayed in Friday Harbour.

[@ericklaw]

There are two Historic Parks there devoted to the Pig War. The American camp and the British Camp.

Happy Holidays from Camano Island, Washington. Just south of Vancouver Island. ⛄🦌🎄

[@tallbit7794]

Been looking forward to this reaction ever since the Oversimplified video came out!

[@yashar6595]

I saw the video and my first thought at the ending I NEED to see their reaction to that, lmao much love from Detroit aka your neighbors to the north, yes Detroit is north of Windsor haha

[@JPMadden]

On my TV I'm watching on mute the NHL Network showing TSN's broadcast of Finland vs. Germany from the World Juniors, since there is no American broadcast unless Team USA is playing. (Even the in-game ads are included--I just saw one for Skip the Dishes, which we don't have.) On my laptop I'm watching 2 Neighbours--more Canadian content. Happy Holidays from Rhode Island, where thanks to many immigrants from Quebec and one in particular from Parry Sound, hockey is popular here.

[@alexiscausleywaabagiizhigo8606]

the map pre 1812 is wrong. we still had parts of Michigan (Detroit was Canada's 3rd biggest city is 1750).. they split the U.P. between family (Annishnabe) homelands. After they drew those borders in the 1820s.

[@infxrnalsylvan]

1750? Are you stupid that was French territory

[@Blondie42]

I'm born and raised in Washington state which has the San Juans, and yet while in history class we were never taught about this very important incident that nearly erupted into yet another war with England. Will the US invade Canada 🇨🇦? Not likely, we like our nice neighbors to the north.

[@laknidubandara]

Thank you, man. I knew you will eventually upload this reaction video.

[@ESUSAMEX]

I visited the largest of the San Juan Islands (Orcas Island) a few years ago, and it is beautiful.

[@jillians1138]

Oh man where were videos like this when I was taking history classes in high school? Oh right I graduated before KZbin became mainstream lol 😂 I’m based on Vancouver Island…and I gotta say, bickering sheep, pig and potato farmers on the smaller islands in this neck of the woods is still pretty much a thing in the 21st century lol. Just add more dope smoking artists to the mix and then you got the Canadian Gulf Islands accounted for lmao 🤣 no really they’re cool folks When that pig stood up and impersonated Morgan Freeman I was not expecting that…and I was drinking water at the time…three guesses what happened next haha

[@bobd2659]

Changing up your question to guess 3 things that happened next... Water out the nose onto the keyboard. Video paused to browse Amazon to order new keyboard. Delivery of new keyboard...

As a Floridian, it’s funny because the only place people seem to want to move is in Florida. We are filling up with Americans, Canadians and everyone else. We are full people, stay home

The Blue Jays are gonna be an American baseball team eventually.

[@coyotelong4349]

Lol I wish Oversimplified would have put “The Toronto Blue Jays… America’s favorite baseball team!!” in the ending 😂

[@liamnevard1591]

I can’t believe you stood for that long!

[@daleowen2606]

History is a funny thing, Now the only thing anyone cares about the San Juan Islands is the whale watching...

[@jakealanmoviereviews5933]

If America invaded Canada America & Canada: "Well it's about time!" Jk: America loves Canada &I doubt any conflict will ever happen outside of a "South Park" film

Ok, pilgrimage to the island for a meet and greet!

[@jillians1138]

Come on over eh! I can see San Juan Island from where I live lol

[@amandas.6500]

@Jillian S Does it have a Canadian flag, U.S. flag, or a British flag? 🤔😉

[@jillians1138]

@@amandas.6500 USA, the San Juans are part of Washington state, Lime Kiln State Park on the west coast of that island is one of the best places anywhere around here for land based whale watching in the summer fyi 😉

[@wastelandlegocheem]

I don't wanna get political, but to differentiate the white americans from others, would the term yankee be the most accuratw? Or is that considered offensive?

[@americanminotaur2518]

Southerns might get offended because that’s their nickname for Northerns, but the nickname itself isn’t necessarily offensive. It’s probably equivalent to Canuck.

[@AveragedubarFan]

⁠@@americanminotaur2518Who cares if they get offended. They are yanks whether they like it or not, and their illegitimate “rebellion” during the civil war does not change that fact
