Tim's 2016 Trip to Boston

[@omfg0teh0greatizzle]

I can not get over how fresh as death that cube is. It being shown the whole video and expecting it being just a showing of 2x2 cubes existing, then it being revealed to be an amazing puzzle to both solve and look at was astounding.

[@stuartstretch4389]

Xythulhu saw one of these on youtube about 7 or 8 years back. Used to be really obsessed with them, know them as yoshimoto cubes, but could never get hold of one, being just a kid at the time. Seems a whole lot less spectacular to me now Aha.

[@jesseywater3446]

Correct

[@CDClarke]

That cut at 5:15 was pretty jarring and weird. I wonder why they even cut there.

[@Miitsu222]

CDClarke i was thinking that as well.

[@Naphtha-zw6dh]

My bet is he said something pretty jarring and weird.

[@Frisenette]

That One Gaming Channel My guess is that they where flailing the camera about trying to catch the effect but weren't able to and they had to cut it not to have a long boring anticlimax. Or, Tim trailed of trying to justify the lame toy.

[@SpaceNipples420]

probably because the glass toy wasnt working that much as expected and it was getting awkward

[@BrutalMind1984]

I'm surprised there's not more cuts. 99% of the time, Tim can do it all in one take. Once you get so far into a recording, they have to decide whether to rerecord or cut out a bit.

[@Wearefree83]

what a great guy this fellow is !!! Some people don't change in their hearts ! He remaind young and playfull as a child !!! Stay child Tim !!!

[@mancheetah5610]

Sorin Ichim Yeah but so did Michael Jackson

[@bizmarkie9112]

I am sitting here, sick as a dog at the moment waiting to feel better, and watching Tim just eases the mind and sounds soothing when he speaks and takes your mind off of being sick and nauseated. I forget all about it and feel better just by marathoning these videos. They're a Godsend. Thanks, Tim and Cool-Camera-Guy.

[@JessesAuditorium]

That Rubiks looking toy that flips was so pleasing to look at

[@henriaho6350]

yes

[@vasumamayo]

If anyone finds it, post a link here. I want it so bad....

Its a Yoshimoto Cube, I cannot find the rubix cubed version though. Edit: All I could find when lookign to buy one www.amazon.com/Yoshimoto-Designed-Naoki-MoMA-Exclusive/dp/B01634HWFC.

[@XthegreatwhyX]

It's been 30 years... I had no idea how this was called :))))

[@studyworldwide.]

I love how Tim clarifies when he’s joking after making an obvious joke. So cute

[@RAFSWRLD]

Holy shit 10 whole minutes of Tim. Christmas has come early.

[@danforbes3573]

Yep,It has mate.Mid you,Tim may even do a 20 minute vid at Christmas,you never know.

[@marti5420]

Wow. Its christmas all year, heh

[@jamestokarczyk9255]

RAFSWRLD it is a Christmas miracle

[@-.._.-_...-_.._-..__..._.-.-.-]

I really appreciate these longer videos.

[@megamegaO]

1:31 "Oh yes, I recognize that one..." Tim's remembering his days of throwing flash grenades

[@abdelmc1373]

Ah yes fnafsl

[@miraxell]

if Tim would read me a book before sleep i would go sleep directly. and then he goes " ooh thats nice and tight! ...

[@Jack-te8rd]

Tim you are an absolute delight to watch! Your passion and enthusiasm is so endearing. Keep it up you hero!

[@timothy__tt]

"Ooh. That's nice and tight." So much potential. Someone please quote him out of context.

[@johnnyj540]

That sound that Tim identified as the sound of a timer is actually the sound of the capacitors inside of a strobe charging after a flash.

[@mirza6399]

Johnny J yes exactly ☺

[@ch0rd2]

Yes, but the whine did give some indication of the delay between flashes, high pitch, ready to fire again. Perhaps that's what he meant.

[@salvatoreshiggerino6810]

I don't think it's the capacitors that make the sound. My guess would be that it comes from magnetostriction in the core of the transformer that supplies high voltage electricity to the capacitors.

[@bostonrailfan2427]

not charging, it’s a 35mm camera actually taking the picture with the flash…

[@ayebraine]

@@bostonrailfan2427 It's a compact strobe recharging after a flash. If you trigger a flash, it then whines audibly (some louder, some very softly, at the edge of hearing) until it's charged to full strobe power again. You can discharge it while it whines, but it'll be dimmer and not the right exposure.

[@RezzaNL]

It feels nice in hand, it wobbles and it is fun to play with. :3

[@cuteheartcaty3714]

Ohhhhhhhh u sly beast u Tim slippin in all those innuendos ;3

[@axeavier]

I hope you don't mention the first words said in this video

[@cuteheartcaty3714]

'oh that nice and tight'... oh

[@mrslate1]

Thanks Tim, your videos are informative and very relaxing to listen to.. This world needs relaxation so you are serving us very well. Thank you for that...

[@Byskaar]

"Thats all for now. Buh bye. Cheerio. See you later. Heh!" I will now add "heh" to my vocabulary of farewells!

[@lucstockdale]

The wiggly green pen is intended to be in a cup or small spot with many others to look like a plant, I believe.

[@tapestry6455]

It reminded me of a quill pen in green plastic :)

[@rdaysky]

Does anyone know what those pens are named?

[@MrHypnofan]

Search for "Grass Pens", and you should find them.

[@lottie7654]

Who else agrees he should do vlogs of when he goes to all of the toy fairs or just about his day? I would love those.

[@crispico4727]

Why the cut mid sentence?

[@cambrown5633]

Because sometimes he.

[@markadi44]

Tumetron3000 I know! Terrible edit there.

[@pij3333]

he probably started stuttering, it started when he was showing the Merl25 logo

[@Marshmcmallo]

May have run out of memory on the recording

[@kg4boj]

Cause Tim has a foul mouth! They had to cut it for youtube!

[@wite26]

I LOVE YOU TIM!!

[@EndiXIV]

Wtf were those first words

[@ETromp]

Uncle Bubbles that's nice and tight?

[@the_fword6652]

that's what she said

[@grandillusions]

wooo, that's nice and tight...

[@the_fword6652]

Grand Illusions love you're videos

[@HeyRussianCommissar]

your*

[@bebastefkovics7983]

That litlle phone is charming! I just love your toys Tim!❤️

[@MisterDutch93]

This must be the first Grand Illusions video which is not a full take. Why the cut? Did Tim talk too long? ;P

[@BrutalMind1984]

Multiple possibilities really. The way we will only know for sure is if someone from his team reply's to this question. Probably just a little mishap they chose not to include in the recording.

[@LetsbeHonestOfficial]

Tim that's a very nice hand you've got th''WELL HANDS'SAH!''

[@LuisLopez2]

Am I the only one who gets the opening music to all these shows stuck in their head for the whole day? I was literally humming the melody for this opening

[@wompstopm123]

GOD DAMN IT! THEY GOT HIM! thats not tim, THATS A SYNTH!

[@RFC3514]

1:32 - That's actually the sound of a flash charging. Timers just have a series of shot beeps.

[@BradSaintGeorge]

9:12 I was NOT expecting that from this little puzzle. What a delightful surprise. : )

[@FunkadelicFeed]

I have trouble sleeping most nights. So I watch your video, you voice is so calming... helps me sleep. And all these toys are just a bonus. Thanks, keep making awesome vids!

[@SitStandWalk]

such interesting stuff to research! does anyone else go straight to google after watching tims videos?!

[@vimalsingh1731]

Yup

[@Jingleboy14]

Appreciate these as always. Great work guys!

Remember the good old days, when you didn't have to wait for a 13sec intro before you delve into Tim's wonderful array of toys and such?

[@rskat501]

Khronos_ no

[@AS-ku5fr]

The image of a dude walking down the street carrying that huge picture frame is giving me great joy

On top of your game Tim. Seriously. Thanks.

[@speculus8645]

0:25 Tim has been framed!

[@stranger7968]

3:13 some of the very early colored photos were taken using 3 cameras(or maybe 3 lens camera) And then you could combine those layers to get colored photos.

That cube at the end BLEW MY MIND

Nothing like waking up to a couple bong rips and watching Tim, heh!

wish i could have seen ya tim, come back to boston sometime!

[@GamingMill]

I've been after a Yoshimoto cube for over twenty years now as seen at 9:14. The only ones I seem to be able to find are over UK£70 and I really don't want to pay that much for one! Anyone got any ideas or links as to where I can find a budget version at all in the UK?

[@sebastiangeorger5791]

[@tomk.williams1186]

I don't know if this is late but you can buy that very cube on grand illusions website for £10

[@PopeLoaf]

This is the only toy channel worth watching

[@Kamitcha]

20 sec in and Tim already makes a innuendo. 😂 😂 😂

[@megamegaO]

6+ minute Grand Illusion videos always make my day :) heh

[@IanSmithKSP]

The first cut I've noticed from Grand Illusions yet! Tim's an excellent speaker to get these all in one take. Shame to end that streak with a technical mistake (I assume). Love the videos

[@lunarchyld6793]

Adela could not find her way out of the woods. Adela became disoriented at Alaric's funeral. A mysterious urn appeared at the grounds. Agatha taught Adolphus the one-step. Adela flung Angela's baby from an upstairs window. Gotta ruin everyone's fun don't you Adela

[@Donn66]

Classic Adela

[@pepperspray7386]

What makes a thing a novelty vs a toy?

[@kiefac]

Pepper Spray i think a novelty is less oriented towards children and usually isn't really meant to be played with, more it's something to use and look strange.

[@ZacHawkins42]

7:33 Tim puts his hands in the air, like he just don't care...

[@Bob3D2000]

1:35 That's not a delay mechanism, it's just the sound of the flash capacitor charging.

[@weirdosheep9296]

Also at 6:20 he says "flace"

that rubiks toy at 9:10 actually blew my mind. seemed standard at first but... damn. especially when h pulled he hollow part out.

[@blazeytown4444]

4:14 why'd they ruin their perfect unbroken shot? They're usually good about keeping things going

[@bgezal]

1:32 That sound is an external flash charging the capacitor.
