Andy cheated! at 6:53 switched from rock to scissors! Start a petition to demand an audit from the Committee of Conker Kickers, we can't have such foul play in a world class championship!
I just love the fact that he uses the example of 'unlookers watching as people jump over a puddle' as a justification that 'british people can make anything entertaining', while he is there to play a sport in which unlookers literally watch people hit one nut against another one.. Love it!
In my old primary school we had an annual school conker tournament that had been going on for over 70 years straight. They would have sheets up saying who everyone was against and it would go up in brackets until there were only 2 people left. The final was something that the whole school including teachers would watch every year and although it was a bit weird, it was great fun. That ran for so long until the year after I left when I heard the new bitchy law-suit-paranoid principal banned it because apparently it was a safety hazard. I still hate that principal for that and I will forever respect the conker tournament.
This video is _cracking._ From the weather to the people, from the beer to Max storming off at the end with "absolutely ridiculous", from the competition itself to someone protesting against it, the Britishness is overwhelming. Andy's shot, however much Max may have disliked it, was _impressive._ Absolutely _nuts._ Shame that Max couldn't _conker_ the championship, but the video that came out of it is absolutely _smashing._
Hey Max, have you heard of the world stone skimming championships that take place in Scotland each year? I recently heard about it and thought that might be something for a possible unconventional video next year.
I won a conker championship. It was the best day of my life. When I felt my opponents conker crush beneath my superior conk I have never felt such power. I have been spending my whole life since trying desperately to feel the same euphoric rush but never have.
They're Horse Chestnuts, they don't become conkers until you take them out of the oven and have made a hole for the string, but soak them in vinegar first.
Max fish Who the hell do you think is your demographic that will sit through a 8 minute video and then will lose there shit over the prospect of perhaps winning a unwanted contaminated conker
We always did this at my school but a load of people were getting hurt cus of it so the teachers for some reason took it upon themselves to try and remove any stray conkers that were on the playground, it was like in monsters inc when they find a human socks but instead of hazmat suits they have fucking ice packs.
Used to play this every autumn at school. It was quite a big deal. There was all sorts of tricks to make the conker the best. I used to put mine in hot vinegar and then leave it over night. God knows if it did anything but someone told me it hardens them. I once had a nine'r if anyone knows what that means. Conkers was awesome and every British kid knows what it is (they should anyway).
Max you are the new pépite of my TH-cam subscriptions! Keep your hard work, the world deserves to meet your creativity and the British culture the way you perceive it!
Hey, I just found your channel and am browsing through the backlog. Videos like this are so good. Charming, entertaining, showing of a glimpse of the event, the horror of a 5cm deep puddle... perfect!
professional old bloke on our road named derek has a glass eye because he lost his in the war... not fighting, he was playing conkers with an evacuee who hadn't played before and didn't tie the string properly. evacuee's conker flee straight into his left eye socket.
I’ve only actually played conkers like 3 times, I usually just pick up all the conkers that aren’t bashed and are nice and round. Then I just keep them on my desk forever.
This has got to be one of the most British things ever! Like, you ask an Australian what they did at the weekend - went surfing. An american - went to Walmart. A brit- i swung conkers on a bit of string at other conkers on a bit of string with a drunk duck in the rain.
And the lord said unto John 'come forth and you will receive eternal life"
but John came fifth and won a toaster
Kitty Agnew I know it’s a stolen joke but this is so strong
WINNER WINNER - DM me on Insta for the underwhelming prize of a conker
Congrats. You have just been awarded for being British.

Congrats. You have just been awarded for being British.
it’s an utter tragedy that he didn’t end the video by saying “we came, we saw, we conkered”
missed opportunity
It is tragic
well his conker was divided and conkered
We came, we saw, we conkered
omfg that grown man was willing to eject his child to ferry you over that ravine. Max your influence is growing stronger
the way you phrased this has me creasing
I would do the same for Max. I would yeet my newborn to help him.
@@margaritam.9118 ok you ruined it whith that I'm guessing your America
Im 1000nth like
That’s just England for you
Can we all just appreciate how max is the only youtuber giving us thrilling content such as doing crosswords in the pouring rain and playing conkers
check out robbie knox for similarly thrilling content such as putting out the bins and going to visit a national cross
Robbie Knox's has content like that too
@@IzzyTye oh stap didn't see that
@@PoorlyWrttenReviews great minds
Hahahah yes, this👌😂😂😂 I love him so much 😂😂

Fucking Andy
omfg he did
#JusticeForFosh
The looking around afterwards to see if he got caught. A true sign of a cheater.
I have analysed this frame by frame, it certainly wasn't cricket!
This video is _obscenely_ British.
This channel showcases all noteworthy things that Britain has to offer- truly a gem of our time
Aggressively british. My favourite part was the ‘conkers have feelings’
When I was in junior school we would have conker collecting comps lol😂😂
*competition
@@BnFGProductions now thats something we all can agree on, get the trans out and bring the conkers in!
too far?
You may’ve gotten further in the competition if you played some mind games with your competitors, gone for the divide and conker approach
I just love the fact that he uses the example of 'unlookers watching as people jump over a puddle' as a justification that 'british people can make anything entertaining', while he is there to play a sport in which unlookers literally watch people hit one nut against another one.. Love it!
when andy said “🤟”
in rock, paper, scissors
i felt that
First comment in a while I actually laughed at,
Thank you for your service.
lost it when andy held up three fingers in rock paper scissors
He’s too intelligent for us - he has ascended
Andy actually held up rock but changed it to the hybrid rock scissors to cheat
using music from the Nutcracker...I see what you did there
This is proof that the right host and editing can make anything funny. What a jolly lot of people over there as well
when will he learn that 10 minutes means more ads
the first time ive seen someone get mad because the youtuber didn't stretch their vid to 10 mins
WAIT, YOU CAN GET PAID!!?!?
@@MaxFosh Only in conkers though...
this is when people realise that he's been living off of jelly babies that strangers give him for crosswords
That would require getting past the 2nd round
I’m from Holland and didn’t know what the word conker meant. I was scared I would be confused the whole video but I’m happy it became very clear to me
other people get Nike shoes and the newest makeup no not max Fosh no he gets a little red riding hood costume.
Tbf, it's a really nice coat
I think this whole competition is summed up with the words “charmingly ecletic”.
I love seeing that you watch these 😂
I love conkers haven't played in 32 years since the great finger break in 87
4:40 , looks like you lost No Nut November Max.
This was the best ☝️
Ironic, isn't it?
A competition about nuts being held in _November._
You did not 😂
Bravo
“Conkers have feelings” I’m dead

Loved the sentence: "As myself and my trusty, bright red cheeks." No wait, he said Volkswagen. Never mind, my bad
Well this championship has its pros and con...kers.

I don't think he knows what a circumcision is...
I’ve been to this event before and I can conker that it’s well fun

This guy shaking other people's hands like it's 2019 or something.
There once was a bunny
Whose nose was rather runny
You may think it's funny
But it's snot.
>Sport you've never heard of
>a sport literally everyone plays as a kid
the two dislikes are from John and the baby that was left in a bush
Then what are the other 57?
I LOST it at the yellow card for foul conkering technique
Wading through the puddle , Max Slosh - I'll let myself out
4:28 that made me really smile
7:14 this man is a beacon of emotion xDD
"The Chile Conk Army" - genius
Lady: My dad passed away on Monday, so ...
Max: 😄
This is fast become my favourite TH-cam channel brilliant work old chap
Hey, thank you so much for putting the subtitles on. Means everything.
They're Horse Chestnuts, they don't become conkers until you take them out of the oven and have made a hole for the string, but soak them in vinegar first.
Anyone not from the UK remember this from the Dangerous Book for Boys?
Remember people, love conkers all.
Max fish
Who the hell do you think is your demographic that will sit through a 8 minute video and then will lose there shit over the prospect of perhaps winning a unwanted contaminated conker
...you?
max fish 🤣🤣🤣
Me lol
Max Fosh i would
legit was having the worst day of my life and you still managed to cheer me up thanks man ily
That conker troll guy was fucking hilarious...” I’m going for a beer” 😂😂
I think I completely lost it, when the nutcracker started playing
I can’t quite believe that Andy got away with such an obvious cheat in the rock, paper, scissors!
Thanks for never failing to include brandenburg concerto no. 3 i enjoy it every time
During the 2 minute silence for Armistice Day...
Top Hat Guy: Yeh.

this is your best series Max. Damn, it might be even one of my favourites on youtube! cheers!
“And Ill definitely come back for next year” well past max I’ve got some news for you.
Used to play this every autumn at school. It was quite a big deal. There was all sorts of tricks to make the conker the best. I used to put mine in hot vinegar and then leave it over night. God knows if it did anything but someone told me it hardens them. I once had a nine'r if anyone knows what that means. Conkers was awesome and every British kid knows what it is (they should anyway).
The English Civil War soldiers with match locks and full kit was a mental flashbang
i love how he makes us laugh as well as the people he interviewed
"And I definitely will be coming back next year" Oh Foshy if only you'd know
When will the conker championships ever get VAR, the changing from rock to scissors there is atrocious!
We used to do this with pencils in school. Hold one long ways flip the other one on the pencil, and if it breaks, you win if yours breaks you lose.
When I was about 11 or maybe even 10 me and my brother actually got put in a newspaper for playing conkers, definitely my biggest achievement in life
Max you are the new pépite of my TH-cam subscriptions! Keep your hard work, the world deserves to meet your creativity and the British culture the way you perceive it!
the man with the conker cruelty sign is just low key calling out all strikers
i feel so uplifted and enlightened, thank you xx
Little did he know, there would be no next year.
I actually remember playing this game when I use to live in Ireland when I was like 10 it bring so many good memories!!
Police investigator: "So you don't have the 23 missing children from this week in your basement?"
Me: 7:17
The UK seems to have so many niche competitions like this!! So cool
Damn. Wanted to see you win it this year
Instructions unclear, got conker stuck in andy
when you mentioned the school uniform on the old fella ... majestic banter
Used to play this as a kid back in the '50s in Buffalo NY, so it's not just a British thing. I miss the chestnut trees...
2:55 big up the cadets
whos here after clue 2
Hey, I just found your channel and am browsing through the backlog. Videos like this are so good. Charming, entertaining, showing of a glimpse of the event, the horror of a 5cm deep puddle... perfect!
I have suddenly discovered that I have never wanted anything more than to possess that conker
I completely forgot about this. We Used to play it at primary school and we learned about it on a school trip to Cornwall.
Perplexingly despite being an 18y/o in canada who's been to the UK once in my memory, I have in-fact heard of conkers. No idea when or how though.
As an Irishman,hearing an English person say “let’s conker” frightens the shite out of me.
This is the most pointless sport... I love it
Chili Conk Army... that’s absolutely amazing
Max is like a slightly less serious Tom Scott. Both are great!

Who sent you that Lithuania branded rain coat? I’m a Lithuanian and this is my first time hearing of something like that. :D
he started off like wtf is this then turned into actually caring haha
That conker cruelty man would be an influencer in modern life.
What do you call a man with a rubber toe?
Robertò
Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
Lots of schools banned conkers because it was ‘too dangerous’
Bruh Andy swapped from Rock to scissors like a mad man...
IM FROM LITHUANIA. GO VILNIUS. That was actually pretty good pronunciation.
my old maths teacher talked about this in maths on day and said once it finished who everyone one would be able to throw it to someone at school
I’ve only actually played conkers like 3 times, I usually just pick up all the conkers that aren’t bashed and are nice and round. Then I just keep them on my desk forever.
Fantastically British. I love the guy who was protesting to protect conkers. For any Americans unsure that is purely a light hearted joke.
Max was conkered, Andy conked him out. Conk. I have a new favourite word
The nutcracker in the background! 😂😂
You absolutely conquered that first one
I want that conker just as much as your car wants his bits back
8:07 - when you accidentally turn the flash on the front camera
This has got to be one of the most British things ever! Like, you ask an Australian what they did at the weekend - went surfing. An american - went to Walmart. A brit- i swung conkers on a bit of string at other conkers on a bit of string with a drunk duck in the rain.
I used to have this in my primary school but I used to soak the conker in viniger and then use it. Never lost
My primary school did this every year. The whole school compete and the finalists have a duel on the playground one after noon
