Casey's life is fascinating. He could be doing something as mundane as brushing his teeth and make it interesting. He's also a nomadic family man, a paradox of sorts.

[@ceekay9253]

***** what do you mean?

[@jonathanz2456]

Making the mundane look interesting is a fantastic art. It means great subject matter is everywhere.

[@JonnyKahann]

would love to see more of Casey Neistat's unboxings lol

[@cimotorsports-atv]

Most people are super careful unboxing and he's just kicking and tearing hahaha

[@raymondlenguyen]

Honestly, would rather kicking and tearing than slow and tedious unboxing.

[@ceekay9253]

Raymond Nguyen Not if you've spent good money on something.

[@petrikor4411]

***** It'd be the opposite of UnboxTherapy.

[@KickUpOfficial]

***** He should make a third channel just for unboxing videos. Would easily be the most exciting unboxing channel on youtube.

[@BoussainFitness]

Was fearing for the life of that coffee machine while unboxing.

[@czrnelas5617]

lolololol

[@czrnelas5617]

Same

[@gracenmg]

LOL! I was the exact same. I wasn't remotely bothered about the rough laptop unboxing, but the coffee machine? That thing produces life's elixir! Lol

[@nekonyan552]

Best and funniest comment! Agreed.

[@travellifefree]

Yes but I think it's the machine that needs a plastic pod for every coffee you make. So much waste and terrible for the environment. I hope he returns it... :-(

[@ModdedTalent]

"Are you afraid of running out of stories?" Casey walks outside because he hears noise. There's a massive protest outside. I guess that's NYC for you.

[@Moddredd]

I love how you can make somebody, who's never been to New York, fall in love with New York, all through the art of film. :)

[@antoniopcpratas]

seeing these everyday, am loving how you can make vlogs not boring. keep being an inspiration, thanks.

[@JeffersonBethkepage]

I need to get one of those briefcase desks ASAP!

[@slowown]

Hi.

[@finneganion]

***** it's called a case/portable folding coffee table

[@margauxlaurier]

***** Beastie Boys - Ch-Check it Out :)

[@BMgreekyoutuber]

I want it toooo

[@sharmaji1474]

Did you get that suit case? If yes where from? I want it too Or I have to make it?

[@wowthatsemma]

Your vlogs make me wanna live in New York every day a bit more ahah

[@ThatMedic]

Where do you live?

[@wowthatsemma]

London's Journal France :/

[@johnnycab1]

I work in nyc, want to trade? Haha

[@wowthatsemma]

John Caballero Actually YES ahah

[@tiam-schaper]

wowthatsemma I live in NYC and its great but Casey still finds MUCH more interesting things to do :)

[@ChuckFranco]

Who else is rewatching his vlogs because he recently quit? i'm watching it from episode 1 to the final episode

[@melissaedwards5689]

same! I want to know I have watched every single one. I feel like i have already watched probably 80%, but i know there are a few from 2015 that i have missed, so am going vid by vid! Every one is so entertaining! It's the end of an era, that's for sure!!

[@ChuckFranco]

For sure. I've already watched every single vlog. But I'm still rewatching them 👍

[@glennvho]

Me too. I've watched some of the vlogs randomly at first but now I'm watching them from number 001 to the last one (not sure what number it has).

[@BillyGuerilla]

Im doing that as well

[@kayaeki]

I got to learn a lot about life watching him. He's a big inspo to me :')

[@dveryan]

these vlogs are the best in the business

[@dveryan]

thats the truth

[@JeremyWhy]

"The Autobiography of Malcolm X". WOW! That book changed my life as well. And here I didn't think I could like you morerer. 👍 LOL!

[@SaphiraHowell]

Just found out that you're presenting at the Shorty Awards on Monday and I got super excited because I'm going to be there too! I'm nominated for the Teen Hero award and I don't know... I just had to share this with everyone in the comments because it made me 10x more excited to be going :)

[@nickolancher9363]

Good job and see you both on tv or the internet

[@elliotbrier3660]

love you saph❤️❤️

[@VlogEva]

Casey's vlogs start of my free time after school. Usually when I watch vlogs I don't actually watch them, I just listen along to the vlogger, but with Casey's vlogs I don't want to miss a second, so I watch the whole video, even the outro.

[@ZachBussey]

One Q&A, Casey needs to let us know how long it takes to edit these and how much footage he shoots for each one! For my vlogs it's like 5 hours of footage and another 5 to edit... so I'm so curious how long it takes for someone who's always only known filmmaking. Thank you Casey for keeping these going!

[@landyrane]

Always shoot with the end product in mind. Avoid shooting too much because you'll have too much to go through. I don't create vlogs but I've worked in the TV news biz for over a decade, so I know something about tight deadlines. This technique is sometimes called "editing in the camera".

[@ZachBussey]

Randy Lane Thanks for the reply! I definitely do try to shoot only things that I think could be interesting - but I also overshoot currently as I still figure everything out haha. I suppose over time I'll get better at that! But that said, I'm loving it! Something I've always wanted to do.

[@erikvanconover]

Randy Lane I agree with that, most of vlogging is learning when to turn the camera on. The more you vlog the less footage you will need to shoot. I will film about 30 min a day tops, more if there are time lapses, cut it down to 10-12 min *****

[@ZachBussey]

Erik Conover Impressive! Yeah I imagine it's like anything, the more you do it the better you get!

[@tiam-schaper]

***** He has his technique down but also he runs his own small company that I think helps him with edits.

[@HelloHiccups]

What if Casey ever wants to return anything but he can't because he destroys the boxes beyond recognition.

[@yungshaggy9716]

He's rich tho

[@russellwhitlock9948]

+Ian McCormick no

[@briand6343]

Russell Hay Most stupid thing I've ever read... The guy is rich af..

[@CurlyMommyVlogs]

I love watching you break into things you buy or have been sent 😁 it makes me happy for some reason

[@findingvictoria]

i'm running out of words to explain how much i love these vlogs!

[@ajtaffy]

I have no knowledge of video editing or production - but these vlogs are so brilliantly made! So glad I found you on KZbin Casey!

[@npoleary]

Rewatching all episodes of the vlog!....Casey, never change the way you unbox packages 📦 ✂️

[@jamesdavies3223]

i have literally spent he entire day watching these vlogs...simply awesome!

[@_matty]

Damn that sunrise time lapse

[@LukeNewell123]

You can always tell how excited Casey is about a new product by the amount of damage he does to the packaging. He was very excited about the coffee machine.

[@JaviMaldonado]

Casey is so amazing that he is the only KZbinr that edits his videos while he's sleeping. Otherwise I really don't see how his able to pull this out on a daily basis. Just awesome! Casey, you sir are on your way to becoming the king of KZbin.

[@erinamcsweeney5494]

that time lapse at the beginning was especially breathtaking, love these vlogs

[@rahuld2631]

There's nothing included in today's vlog about OWENS bday celebrations...!!!

[@rahuld2631]

And btw HAPPY BDAY OWEN...🎉🎉

[@nabilfndy7537]

casey will always find a great angle for his shot, and it makes his vlog 👍👍 love it

[@ConductorSmith]

Casey, you're killing it with these blogs! Keep it man!

[@victoria4]

Honestly these blogs cannot be uploaded at a more perfect time for me. First thing I watch in the morning is your vlog lol

[@hithereroger]

I woke up too early this morning for a new Casey vlog to be up and I was like damn I gotta find something better to do with my life but then I was like nah there's nothing better to do than hanging out with Casey. You gotta hang out with people that are cooler than you every day!

[@itsdendy]

Thanks for the daily motiv-inspir-ation Casey, keep on living!

[@girlponders2212]

Imagine Casey unboxing China set!

[@kvrt619]

the previous videos of casey neistat, all of them, i've watched all of them

[@JULIOMARZ]

I can watch your videos over and over again your style is so unique. ✌

[@adeoluosibodu.]

Well we know how much longer

[@CaptainActive]

I don't watch TV, listen to the radio, or read the paper, but I watch your vlog daily. Great work! Keep it up.

[@kingofbeez14]

Casey you manage to make even office life interesting. Please keep doing vlogs!

[@f1fan001]

I love how Casey opens stuff. Anything.

[@AerophiIe]

Does anybody come for just the Time-laps intro?

[@Jakesmithfilms]

I love how you call NYC your town. As if it's this small patch of grass in the country where cows are roaming.

[@CameronKinsey]

Most beautiful vlogs on KZbin! I love these videos, keep up the good work Casey.

[@Snehal]

Your consistency makes me feel NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE!

[@StrauberryJam]

Why not use Uber Casey!?

[@pizzaburger-ul2or]

StrauberryJam omg Straub you watch him?Soooo big fan of you!

[@jazzy364]

StrauberryJam Hello straubby.

[@zendiustv7452]

StrauberryJam he lives in NY

[@darrenwatts1686]

Zendius TV soooooooo????? they have uber in New York....

[@zendiustv7452]

Darren Watts Its kinda unnecessary as it would just be faster and cheaper to bike.

[@SebastianD.Anderson]

You had me at "I stole that from Rushmore"... such an amazing movie! Well done, Casey.

[@denizmedcezir1106]

another positve video in the middle of my day..thnk you Casey..

[@melishabeille]

I can't get enough of your vlogs, Casey! x

[@juanjimenez384]

I love watching These Vlogs! Espeacially today, Thanks For The BDAY Present Casey!!

[@Bullitain]

When you are doing your time lapses do you have your new macbook pro to edit whilst waiting for the time lapses to finish? Is that the secret to your extreme punctuality with uploads? I recently uploaded a vlog sorta thing about my ski trip on my channel. It would mean a lot if anyone checked it out and I'm always open to feedback. I also filmed a video and it took 3 hours to clean up afterwards (egg on the wall) so look forward to that if you subscribe Thank you :)

[@eddiethelion7599]

Bullitain Nah i don't think he does cause then surely he'd never go his office if he could just do the edit on his macbook pro. Oh and great video

[@Cooligirlie]

Bullitain In his recent vlogs he said he uses his iPhone 6 to do the time lapses ;)

[@ThomasLock]

You do this on every video man haha. It's not exactly subtle but I guess is better than just asking people to watch :P Nice videos anyway, I subscribed!

[@M0esmac]

CassieonFire He uses all his cameras (usually) to film those time-lapses, but he said iPhone 6 does it best.

[@ianmacleod2979]

I LOVE THE WAY YOU OPEN STUFF

[@MllxPomPote]

the way you handle technology stresses me out but I love it at the same time

[@GraceGarnet]

Shonduras seems so nice, his snapchats make me so happy

[@Pauldjreadman]

One of the best editors I have come across

[@BTOisaG6]

I love how he does the sunrise time lapse while others usually does the sunset

[@MackTheMaker]

I'm aspiring to join the film industry (set designer), and I really love seeing how you incorporate the beauty that is New York City into your vlogs. I'm looking forward to seeing where these go in the future! Cheers

[@KismetBP]

Had a funny thought on "I worry about the sustainability of these Vlogs".. Fast forward years from now ... VLOG 927 .. "I still worry about the Sustainability".. lol. I LOVE these. Hands down the best, keep on going! :)

[@Cazzywazzy114]

Just watching how Casey takes vlogging to a completely different level makes watching his videos non tedious and actually making want to watch them everyday

[@diego_dandrea]

I could wath Casey unboxing things the whole day!

[@candyfurla]

Gonna make it simple : I just love your vlogs Casey, amazing work ! Thank you for making it !

[@ACEincorporated]

You are seriously awesome and definitely an inspiration!

[@GearHead704]

When I used to work in manhattan I used the subway's daily. They still look the same in this video 10+ years later.

[@BBatBatman1]

Man ,your vlogs are amaizing ,quality etc. Just wow ! Cheers !

[@Agostoic]

That timelapse at the beginning bruh amazing.

[@MicahByler]

lol the way he opens those boxes. At first I thought hey, he's holding a camera in one hand, he's got to use his feet. But then again, he did set the camera down and still opened it like that

[@zoejeremy9671]

[@luann1971]

Love all your videos Casey. Thank you

[@SmileyAdventures]

I went to school and majored in Entertainment Management and worked in film for two years as a producer assistant and worked my buns off... Guess what I hated it. Now I work for myself as a travel blogger/Vlogger and creating my own path.

[@smhca]

who would dislike these vlogs! So inspirational!

[@jan.2213]

love the Q & A intro :D

[@zebratsjki]

I'm trying to find the consistent quality of these vlogs inspiring and not depressing. Don't know how you do it.

[@asmaster12]

WHO ELSE IS WATCHING THIS IN 2017

[@misc2011]

I like the intro to the ask the question section! very cool.

[@jonmanjeot]

Pavarti from Survivor!!!! Wow amazing!!!!

[@Xhoose]

:20 I must've watched this part 20x times. I'm memorized on how beautiful it is @.@

[@RetroTop10]

It was Dylan but there probably wouldn't be the Dylan that we know without Guthrie. Keep up the vlogs man!

[@emkwanvlogs]

WOW - was surprised at your fav book choice! *Thumbs UP I've read it and totally agree!

[@41Simondo41]

Your videos made me sign up to youtube. I've been surfing anonymously for years, however I felt compelled to write that your vids are awesome. Keep them coming. Also dam you for forcing me to make an account.

[@BlopFlop123]

what was the q and a song? And ye i love your videos Casey thanks for filming videos!!

[@dedsi8848]

Lmao the coffee machine was a reference to the early vlogs from the beginning of time.

[@IPF2RE]

casey can you please make a full length documentary

[@iSAIDYO.83]

@FastCompany had a great read on the snapchat homie..pretty dope random moment at the garden and in the midst of the peaceful protest. Big Fan dont care how my nerd friends feel about u being all meta either. Love the work and I find myself doing more cause of it. 212 born and raised.

[@MrExcite96]

your vlogs look amazing compared to all the other vlogs on KZbin

[@stevenpdxedu]

I can see why you think making films, especially KZbin videos is the "best job in the world". It has so many 'perks'. It gives you a very powerful voice, an income, and is something you love obviously love do. There is the matter of 'fame' as well which can be a pain in the ass but it comes with the territory. Enviable beyond all that, it gives you 'introduction' to the world. What you do is so inspiring it seems everywhere you go you are liked and have friends wanting to know you better. Not that you could get to know them all, but people who genuinely like you, feel they already know you and if given the chance could be better friends. Wow! I consider having just a few friends my true wealth. Why would you ever stop doing that.

[@iamphilipmac]

Casey. Do not stop your vlogs. Please. Never. Ever. If KZbin is Lucky Charms, your videos are just the marshmallows. ;)

[@sarahmanning8339]

Will you please show us how to make your questions & answers desk? It doesn't even have to be a full tutorial. Just some close up shots would get me started.

[@joydime]

There are some folding desk briefcases here to look at. tinyliving.com/store/folding-tables/

How the hell do you always find those great fitting music for your videos?

[@sebastianc06]

You have no idea how much this vlogs make me happy and how much an inspiration you're to me. I wish one day we could work together, maybe as coworkers or me as a student, I don't care, I'd love to learn from you. Really.

[@nabilzbeast]

How do u only have 500k subs you deserve way more...
