How the heck do you become a LEGO employee That was my dream as a kid, but I slowly grew out of it in my teens as I started to realize that that could never actually happen
@@goddamnit Hi Mert! Becoming an employee of LEGO is very easy! Just in the states alone we have a huge distribution center, hundreds of stores, three satellite offices, a future warehouse and a corporate office for both North and South America (which is where I'm located). From there we have just as many locations through out the world. 😀
@@SirPetsmart Oh wow, thanks for the quick response! Sorry to keep bothering you, but which field do you work in at Lego, and what minimum qualifications are required?
@@goddamnit It's no problem at all! I'm part of the Consumer Services Department. Which helps answer contacts, test new sets, help troubleshooting any web and app issues, partner with stores and independent sellers, and work with our Educational department...and that's usually my schedule every week!!!! We have so many roles in almost any field you can think! You can always view our job section at our website and apply to any of the roles that interests you! And if you do apply, good luck!!
Linus might be sensitive about being small but it's times like this that being built like an elf is a bonus. Not everyone could work in that space behind the TV like he did. We love you the way you are Linus.
Linus playing around is the moneymaker. Don't you see how he monetizes his own living space for profit? It makes me feel super weird that he shows all that for money.

I definitely recommend not having your subwoofer in a cabinet like that. It will make the subwoofer VERY boomy and cause tons of reverberations in the cabinet which will result in drowned out bass that stays around too long so it won't sound as good as if the sub was out in the room hidden somewhere. Subwoofers spread to the walls of whatever room they are in generally, and when the sound (pressure changes) reach the walls and corners, they legitimately get trapped there. Long story short, if you want proof: plug in your subwoofer and go to the middle of the room and listen, then go to the corner and listen. You will hear a LOT of bass that resonates too long when close to walls or corners. We actually use bass traps to counter this because its so difficult. These are just large puffy things that absorb lots of bass tones at the corners so they don't reflect. In your situation, that wouldn't help though since the subwoofer is already in a cabinet with walls so close to it (and not to mention there are thin walls to a large recess behind the TV which will create more reverb behind the TV so your big explosions and stuff wont sound as real since bass travels through thin surfaces easily). Obviously that might not have the WAF (wife approval factor) but might end up sounding worlds better outside the cabinet.
As someone that used to install TV's and HiFi for over 7 years, I totally agree. But while doing said job, I would explain reasons for a different Sub/Speaker location but some people care more about aesthetics. You have to decide as the owner, whether you want the setup to aesthetically look good or sacrifice those aesthetics a little bit for clearer sound quality. One other tip for those with a room similar to the one shown here. If you have a lot of windows in the room. Get thick curtains and close them when using a HiFi system. Will greatly improve the overall sound quality. sound hitting large areas of glass such as big windows greatly effects the sound quality. Should also do this during the configuration of the audio setup as well. You'll get better overall results
Little tip on the katana 12:00, you should always put your katana with your handle facing the left side (it’s a traditional thing which when your katana handle is on the right side it means you are in war and ready to pull the katana any second which if you are not in war it means disrespect and threat to others.) and also the blade facing upward so it doesn’t rest on the saya (the cover of the blade) and damage the blade :) Edit: 69 les go Edit again lol: Idk why Yt keeps deleting my comment so imma just put it here for Max C that think my comment is completely wrong. Yours aren’t completely wrong, but they don’t use that method to create the curvature out of no where. Early katana was straight, but due to the fact that straight katana tends to get stuck in object while swinging and also it’s very hard to pullout from the saya due to its long length, they made it curved using the method you mentioned. And it is absolutely related to combat effectiveness, you don’t want your katana getting stuck in enemies body or just struggling to pull your katana out when you are in a fight. Search it up.
THANK YOU! I was actually cringing when he put it to the right side a bit. I mean. He prolly didn’t know and thought yeah now you can easily pick it up … that is exactly why you should not have it facing right with the handle
Linus is genius. While making videos on the setup of his house, it drives revenue from this channel and makes all the equipment he installs a business expense. Plus its like a tech nerds fantasy of everything you could want in a house with current and cutting edge technology.
@Noureldin Ali once he continues doing vids in his house for a couple years with the equipment appearing in the scene with him it's considered a business expense.
I feel like Linus has endless family rooms and each one has a different setup and he just makes new setups everytime he gets bored or run out of video ideas.
Yeah, like if I was a kid in there, I wouldn't know which room to chill in. I grew up in a big house, extended family - we had two 'family rooms', 4 TVs and one desktop PC plus multiple laptops throughout the house. I can count on one hand how many times a third family room or a second desktop PC would've been useful. And Linus has like six PCs/consoles and 3-4 rooms for the family to hang out (though not as many TVs)
The fact is that you are not getting it. He makes technology content for enthusiast, and this is just what it is, new equipment, new solutions, new content. There is another fact, he shows you technology that you'll probably want to sneak peek before purchasing it, i dont think that you have the money to spend on "a try" and get another equipment.

I recently purchased the 77” Sony OLED and honestly have never thought to myself “this thing is too dim”. And yes, it is a room with two large bay windows and lots of light. I honestly find myself turning the brightness down because the contrast between light and dark can be very very harsh…. Launching cyberpunk (yellow launch screen) at night is a serious slap if your not expecting it.
Well, to be honest: At night, even my 65" OLED that is 5 years old now is bright enough to give you a slap. But: For HDR to work properly it's _just_ bright enough in a very dark room. As soon as the room gets a bit of light, HDR loses its luster pretty fast. Then again, as I said, my OLED is pretty old by now. I assume current models would be a fair bit brighter. That said, I just don't want to pay $4000 for a 65" TV, so I'll wait a few years, but the next TV upgrade will probably be QD-OLED, unless something else comes along. "Too bright" is easy to fix, after all.
i wish Light senors that actually work we're more common. A well set up night mode (controlled by the sensor) that still delivers good contrast is probably my most important feature. More important than peak brightness even
proper way to place a katana: hilt on the left blade facing up the hilt being on the left makes the katana harder to pull out and therefore is more welcoming while the hilt being on the right means that you are ready to take it out anytime. The hilt being on the right is okay to have during times of war but since there's no war happening, it's a bit more threatening. the blade facing down can damage the blade over time because the blade edge is going to rest against the scabbard.
Ah yes, because he's afraid someone might mistake him for being at war.... in fucking CANADA. I also don't know how that's threatening when the last time the Japanese "threatened" people, they were fucking nuked to submission (an act that's SHAMEFUL to the Japanese culture.. they NEVER submit, only die for their cause).
@@mrmoosetachio since this was started in ancient Japan, swordsmen were forced to be right handed so that we walking other directions scabbards didn't collide
Aside from the price, OLED's scare the shit out of me due to their lack of thickness. When it's *that* thin, I'd rather they add some artificial thickness to give it some structure lol.
The LG OLEDs weirdly are thick for like 65% of the thing and then it's just a very thin panel. Why they don't make the whole thing uniformly the same thickness IDK
This is the problem I had when getting the LG C1 recently, it only had a hump at the bottom and then the top half was just the thin panel. Felt scary moving it around before putting it on the wall. And also another problem with this is that the VESA mounting holes weren't central to the TV so I had to actually redrill holes for my mounting bracket and move it further down on the wall
@@mepik15 well I am talking about when you get it out the box, I had the TV in the polystyrene at the bottom and then when we was just moving it around to get in the right place before lifting onto the bracket it just felt fragile. And also my bracket is one of those where I can bring the TV further off the wall and it doesn't feel safe moving it because the panel is unsupported on all sides
The chemistry between Jake & Linus is so enjoyable, these house setup videos are the best. Watching a maxed out tech setup with trial & error lessons I've learned myself on gear half as good is exactly what LTT does best
You know the connecting holes reminded me of a hilarious mistake that happened when they started making the Egnatia highway in Greece: they started opening a tunel from both ends but they never met up🤣 they messed up and ended up not connecting
I’m going to be so sad when this series is done. Hopefully we can get follow ups from Jake’s Harry Potter room under the stairs. Where I know he’s gonna live
13:10 Linus drop tips picture frame glass doesn't break but good noise A fun video of Linus's home theater setup continued who knows how much longer 😀👍 His wife's patients are saintly he's a lucky man 👍 God bless his wife's patients👍
I'm going to be a repeating record on this one but as a machine builder, it's really fun watching you guys go through the stuff I do everyday lol if you think that TV bracket was poorly designed, just remember engineers don't give a flying fffff for the guy's assembling the machine 🙃
@@bbggakkba I did design it to go together very easily, it was half the design consideration. My tolerances weren't enough and the manufacturer kinda cheaped out and it become super hard to assemble because of it. It was my first real design and also obviously at the prototype stage but I can understand how easily it is to design something you think is good which doesn't really make sense IRL for professionals.
When mounting the TV, being level is largely irrelevant. Being parallel to the nearest reference line will make it "look right." Instead of leveling the mount, you should have just measured up from the bottom edge of the cabinet recess for the entire span.
As a pro installer I've learned that with any articulating mount, you ALWAYS want to drill your holes about half an inch above your measured mark. ALWAYS.
tip about mounting something like that tv color the back of the object/mount with some sidewalk chalk and give it a firm but gentle press against the surafce. it'll leave chalk residue and you'll have a rough idea of where to mount it.
Little suggestion to Linus for future home videos, why not try some kinda net curtains in the rooms where you'd be filming so you dont have to worry about blurring out the windows or reflections? it'd still let in the light but with added privacy and it’d save the editors time, and also just minimise the chance of them missing something.
@@voidfantasy666 You'd be surprised how easy it is, and if there was some kinda landmark visible, like a historic building or a street sign, it can be done scary quick
I was installing cable service in a large house once. The guy was all exited about how the old owner left all the TVs at no cost. And I pointed out. I know why. Every TV had a hole on the drywall behind it. Most only slightly smaller then the TV. And that was how the lines were run to TVs on the other side of the wall and throught the house. It would have cost more to patch and fix then buy new.
The "right" way to display the sword is actually with the edge facing up (so it doesn't dull the blade over time) and the handle towards the left (if you display it with the handle to the right it means it's ready for you to use at any time and might insinuate disrespect towards your guests. It's acceptable in war times tho). Ofc it doesn't really matter that much as it is only a display piece, just wanted to give some fun facts about it
Literally just wrote the same, agree ... I think having a display piece of a foreign culture also implies you learn a bit about it, and this is a simple Google query away. So I hope it's just a fluke in the rush. Better to do it properly
11:41 i have gotten two of those "lego"-flower sets with a "lego"-vase for my mom for her bday. they are pretty nice! and you have fun building them, so win-win :D
10:17 One of the reasons LTT is among my top 3 go tos for tech news & reviews is because I trust this statement. I've seen enough videos where sponsored products were jank and got the review they deserved to be able to trust glowing reviews of other products.
Loving these home setup videos. Currently looking for an OLED as I’m moving in my first apartment in a few months. Really big on movies and gaming, so finally, I can buy myself the good stuff. I don’t to go beyond 2k so I’m looking everywhere for something on sale. LG C1 is winning so far.
12:25 Linus : Jake you sound like Yvonne Jake : *yOu sOuNd lIkE tHaT's A sOfT sPoT fOr yOu* Man sometimes i wish Jake was in the roast. The way he freely roasts his boss. Lol
With how much we love new house videos, the house is basically paying for itself. Might make financial sense doing tech setup for your kids when they come of age.
As a tv installer. I agree, and all of my fellows comrades, that install tvs on walls, the Sanus full motion mounting bracket is awful. But when done correctly looks really nice. We prefer to use the Sanus advance tilt 4d mount.
1:35 I know there probably won’t be too many more house videos, but I think it would be cool to put up some kind of pull down green screen over the windows and overlay Halo gameplay outside or something
It would be kinda neat if they put green screens over the windows when they film. Instead of bluring it. They can make it a different yard. Probably a dumb idea.
Can totally see it needing to be curved down to not dull the blade but having the sword handle on the right is just better doesn't matter if it's technically a social fopa.
Im very impressed with all the tech but I'm most impressed by that side table? Was that an ADJUSTABLE side table? Because I need like 5 of those, or maybe 15.
I have a different Sony TV with the same tech where the whole panel is a speaker. It is actually really great compared to most other TV speakers. I think it is one of the few TVs that you can get away with without a sound bar if you don't care about surround at all.
Nice video, but the katana should have the handle on the left, and it's upside down. Left cause it means you are peaceful, and reverse it because how you have it you are "breaking" its sharpness since it's resting on the sharp edge
You're supposed to wet the wood with a damp sponge first to raise the grain, then sand it again, before you put the oil on, otherwise it will come out rough.
Imagine being at a job where taking sponsorship money to upgrade your personal property isn’t corruption but is encouraged so long as they get to film it.
I just love Jake and Linus together The energy is so good Somehow, Jake is the more mature of the two and it makes for great entertainment Andy is underrated too
This may be a me specific thing, but when I downloaded SignalRGB Windows Defender gave me a warning. It may have just been because I had to run it as administrator to get it to launch at all, but Defender attempted to restrict Signal Core from reaching any networks.
I do not envy the editors having to blur out every potentially location-giveaway window or reflection. On the up side, it does make it feel a bit like Linus lives and a smudgey tech-void of his own imagination. :P
3 seconds. Also, SignalRGB seems very unreliable, it has a lot of bugs. Speaking from personal experience, since I've been using it for a while. At least it's still better than the software from manufacturers.
The best part about these new home videos, is that I feel like part of the family lol. BTS installs and little decor / improvement projects. This is awesome, glad to have been subbed for 7 years total!
Thank you, Linus!!! I know the video is old, but I just finished buying the HT-A9. I'll connect them to a voltage regulator, and hopefully, my home theater setup will last for many years. I found it at an excellent price.
Hey Linus! You displayed your katana in a bad way: you should put the katana with the handle on the left side (because putting it on the right side means that you don't trust your guests). Also, I couldn't tell if the blade was facing down or up, but you should put it facing up for preventing damaging the blade.
Please put the "sword" with the blade up and the handle to the left. You might otherwise offend someone unknowingly. Handle to the right is only done during times of war, when you need fast access. And resting on the blade is bad ;-)

The hilt being on the right is okay to have during times of war but since there's no war happening, it's a bit more threatening.
the blade facing down can damage the blade over time because the blade edge is going to rest against the scabbard.
What do you do when the homeowner is left handed?
Ah yes, because he's afraid someone might mistake him for being at war.... in fucking CANADA. I also don't know how that's threatening when the last time the Japanese "threatened" people, they were fucking nuked to submission (an act that's SHAMEFUL to the Japanese culture.. they NEVER submit, only die for their cause).

Aside from the price, OLED's scare the shit out of me due to their lack of thickness. When it's *that* thin, I'd rather they add some artificial thickness to give it some structure lol.
The LG OLEDs weirdly are thick for like 65% of the thing and then it's just a very thin panel. Why they don't make the whole thing uniformly the same thickness IDK
@@Powerman293 they do for the G line, but it's really best used for wall mounting so..
This is the problem I had when getting the LG C1 recently, it only had a hump at the bottom and then the top half was just the thin panel. Felt scary moving it around before putting it on the wall. And also another problem with this is that the VESA mounting holes weren't central to the TV so I had to actually redrill holes for my mounting bracket and move it further down on the wall
How the fuck are you even able to break a TV by moving it? just be more carefull..? i love the fact they are so thin
@@mepik15 well I am talking about when you get it out the box, I had the TV in the polystyrene at the bottom and then when we was just moving it around to get in the right place before lifting onto the bracket it just felt fragile. And also my bracket is one of those where I can bring the TV further off the wall and it doesn't feel safe moving it because the panel is unsupported on all sides
The chemistry between Jake & Linus is so enjoyable, these house setup videos are the best. Watching a maxed out tech setup with trial & error lessons I've learned myself on gear half as good is exactly what LTT does best
13:33 It's signalling to it's home planet!! Run LINUS Run !!!!
“Cleaning”, the art of “moving” the trash to another location 😂
You know the connecting holes reminded me of a hilarious mistake that happened when they started making the Egnatia highway in Greece: they started opening a tunel from both ends but they never met up🤣 they messed up and ended up not connecting
lmfaooo
Nice, two tunnels!
I’m going to be so sad when this series is done. Hopefully we can get follow ups from Jake’s Harry Potter room under the stairs. Where I know he’s gonna live
I wonder how hard would have been for Jake to make a small apartment for himself in secret.
@@Varibeca shhh! Linus will hear you
By the time it's done there are bound to be things that need re-doing again, so my money's on it being an endless series :D

I'm going to be a repeating record on this one but as a machine builder, it's really fun watching you guys go through the stuff I do everyday lol if you think that TV bracket was poorly designed, just remember engineers don't give a flying fffff for the guy's assembling the machine 🙃
As a new engineer who’s also tried to assemble a product I designed and got manufactured, I strongly concur with what you’re saying.
Sounds like you both are just really bad engineers... I've always designed stuff to go together easy and actually make sense...
@@bbggakkba %100
@@SrikarMaddula “Who the hell designed this? …Oh, right.”
@@bbggakkba I did design it to go together very easily, it was half the design consideration. My tolerances weren't enough and the manufacturer kinda cheaped out and it become super hard to assemble because of it. It was my first real design and also obviously at the prototype stage but I can understand how easily it is to design something you think is good which doesn't really make sense IRL for professionals.
When mounting the TV, being level is largely irrelevant. Being parallel to the nearest reference line will make it "look right." Instead of leveling the mount, you should have just measured up from the bottom edge of the cabinet recess for the entire span.
8:50 Now we all know where Linus' panic room is.
As a pro installer I've learned that with any articulating mount, you ALWAYS want to drill your holes about half an inch above your measured mark. ALWAYS.
You should really replace those blurry windows with a win XP wallpaper or something

“This video was a disaster…”
Well that’s my favorite LTT video!
Not this video today's video as in since today's video sucked instead you get to watch this.
tip about mounting something like that tv
color the back of the object/mount with some sidewalk chalk and give it a firm but gentle press against the surafce. it'll leave chalk residue and you'll have a rough idea of where to mount it.
"Hey, why don't you knock off work early so you can come to my place and help set up my mansion in front of a camera."
The commitment to blurring out the tv reflections from outside, now that's taking privacy to the next level 😂
Little suggestion to Linus for future home videos, why not try some kinda net curtains in the rooms where you'd be filming so you dont have to worry about blurring out the windows or reflections? it'd still let in the light but with added privacy and it’d save the editors time, and also just minimise the chance of them missing something.
why did they have to blur out the windows anyways? Can people really dox someone by just seeing out their window?
@@voidfantasy666 You'd be surprised how easy it is, and if there was some kinda landmark visible, like a historic building or a street sign, it can be done scary quick

Hey, how come this video was shot at 3840 x 1920 and not 2160? I like it, more cinematic.....just curious.
They've been doing that for a while now - this looks the same as all their recent videos on my phone
I was installing cable service in a large house once. The guy was all exited about how the old owner left all the TVs at no cost. And I pointed out. I know why. Every TV had a hole on the drywall behind it. Most only slightly smaller then the TV. And that was how the lines were run to TVs on the other side of the wall and throught the house. It would have cost more to patch and fix then buy new.

@@mimat_ to be honest I don't understand what the original comment was about either
I did tje same lol
I say this every time there is one of these videos. I could watch the home renovation videos forever. I love them.
The "right" way to display the sword is actually with the edge facing up (so it doesn't dull the blade over time) and the handle towards the left (if you display it with the handle to the right it means it's ready for you to use at any time and might insinuate disrespect towards your guests. It's acceptable in war times tho). Ofc it doesn't really matter that much as it is only a display piece, just wanted to give some fun facts about it
Literally just wrote the same, agree ... I think having a display piece of a foreign culture also implies you learn a bit about it, and this is a simple Google query away. So I hope it's just a fluke in the rush. Better to do it properly
Damn Linus has more room behind his TV than I have for my whole gaming setup 👀
"What are the odds he drops it?"
Famous last words.
Linus! This home looks so comfortable, I'm very proud of you and happy for your family.
11:41 i have gotten two of those "lego"-flower sets with a "lego"-vase for my mom for her bday. they are pretty nice!
and you have fun building them, so win-win :D
4:30 When Jake asked for painters tape I figured Linus would be like professionals at my level don’t need painters tape
10:17 One of the reasons LTT is among my top 3 go tos for tech news & reviews is because I trust this statement. I've seen enough videos where sponsored products were jank and got the review they deserved to be able to trust glowing reviews of other products.
Loving these home setup videos. Currently looking for an OLED as I’m moving in my first apartment in a few months. Really big on movies and gaming, so finally, I can buy myself the good stuff. I don’t to go beyond 2k so I’m looking everywhere for something on sale. LG C1 is winning so far.

Man sometimes i wish Jake was in the roast. The way he freely roasts his boss. Lol

With how much we love new house videos, the house is basically paying for itself. Might make financial sense doing tech setup for your kids when they come of age.
congratulations add up....
As a tv installer. I agree, and all of my fellows comrades, that install tvs on walls, the Sanus full motion mounting bracket is awful. But when done correctly looks really nice. We prefer to use the Sanus advance tilt 4d mount.
11:58 Hatching a dragon what the hell did you expect?!, This Targaryen are getting lazy...
1:35 I know there probably won’t be too many more house videos, but I think it would be cool to put up some kind of pull down green screen over the windows and overlay Halo gameplay outside or something
For the first time ever, your sponsor was exactly what I have been looking for!
congratulations add up..
I actually gasped when Linus dropped the glass from the picture frame 🤣
For a house with a theater set up in every living room, The set up looks great.
It would be kinda neat if they put green screens over the windows when they film. Instead of bluring it. They can make it a different yard. Probably a dumb idea.
Or just put linus faces on there
@@ryukatana03 or the surface of the Sun, to amplify the feeling of natural light coming in the room.
The sword handle shouldn’t be on the right, it’s a sign of being at war, it should also be curved down to not dull the blade
Yeah i kinda hate how the sword is sitting there like that.
First thing I noticed as well and was about to comment that the handle should be on the left
@@nikoboivin Noticed the handle also first but then i also saw the sharp side of the blade facing down and was like "ooh no*
Can totally see it needing to be curved down to not dull the blade but having the sword handle on the right is just better doesn't matter if it's technically a social fopa.
I doubt Linus is planning on defending himself with it in any case, so it doesn't matter how fast he's able to take the sword into use.
Nothing better than showing you installing all the things that make it all better for you. You you you you you you.
That cut at 12:50 make me laugh, only Linus would go paint a picture frame during a video shoot.
Im very impressed with all the tech but I'm most impressed by that side table? Was that an ADJUSTABLE side table? Because I need like 5 of those, or maybe 15.
I have a different Sony TV with the same tech where the whole panel is a speaker. It is actually really great compared to most other TV speakers. I think it is one of the few TVs that you can get away with without a sound bar if you don't care about surround at all.
I wasn’t very fond of these house vids at the start. Now they’ve really grown on me. I’m enjoying seeing it all come together.
Nice video, but the katana should have the handle on the left, and it's upside down. Left cause it means you are peaceful, and reverse it because how you have it you are "breaking" its sharpness since it's resting on the sharp edge
I really like your TV being next to the fireplace and angled. That way the couch/chair arrangment can enjoy both
You're supposed to wet the wood with a damp sponge first to raise the grain, then sand it again, before you put the oil on, otherwise it will come out rough.
So you sand, dampen wood, then sand again, then oil?
Does the type of oil matter, is mineral alright?
Also what if you're doing a stain?
Imagine being at a job where taking sponsorship money to upgrade your personal property isn’t corruption but is encouraged so long as they get to film it.
What the hell are you talking about?
I just love Jake and Linus together
The energy is so good
Somehow, Jake is the more mature of the two and it makes for great entertainment
Andy is underrated too
Tbh I appreciate that he didn't plug five segways like last video. An ad every 2 minute just makes the video unenjoyable.

This may be a me specific thing, but when I downloaded SignalRGB Windows Defender gave me a warning. It may have just been because I had to run it as administrator to get it to launch at all, but Defender attempted to restrict Signal Core from reaching any networks.
Signal RGB is relatively new and not super popular so windows defender can’t identify it as safe at scale
IIRC, you should read their privacy policy before installing it.
I got a warning from my VPN of malicious code when I tried to download it. Maybe there actually is something there...?

I do not envy the editors having to blur out every potentially location-giveaway window or reflection. On the up side, it does make it feel a bit like Linus lives and a smudgey tech-void of his own imagination. :P
3 seconds.
Also, SignalRGB seems very unreliable, it has a lot of bugs. Speaking from personal experience, since I've been using it for a while. At least it's still better than the software from manufacturers.

The best part about these new home videos, is that I feel like part of the family lol. BTS installs and little decor / improvement projects. This is awesome, glad to have been subbed for 7 years total!
Thank you, Linus!!! I know the video is old, but I just finished buying the HT-A9. I'll connect them to a voltage regulator, and hopefully, my home theater setup will last for many years. I found it at an excellent price.
1:39 wow, the view from Linus’s house is stunning
I wasn't sold on it until the giant egg. Really brings the whole thing together. A place behind the TV to store your Linus is pretty clever, too.

That bike is sick. Great video though. More power
congratulations add up....
Hey Linus! You displayed your katana in a bad way: you should put the katana with the handle on the left side (because putting it on the right side means that you don't trust your guests). Also, I couldn't tell if the blade was facing down or up, but you should put it facing up for preventing damaging the blade.
Ok but Yvonne's use of the Lego flowers in vases as decorations is such a good idea that I just might do at some point
congratulations add up..
Please put the "sword" with the blade up and the handle to the left. You might otherwise offend someone unknowingly.
Handle to the right is only done during times of war, when you need fast access. And resting on the blade is bad ;-)
