Any English people click on this video thinking it would be about holidays as in vacation not holiday as in calendar event
Natalie Snape And that’s exactly what I thought
I did think is was the Calder events
Me
ikr :(
I thought that
3 months off school in the summer?? I live in England and we only get 6 weeks, last year not even that.
Americans have to stop complaining!!
Gaming Pandas They think their summers are short?!
Technically where I live we had around 9-10 weeks off, but the school district is shifting their school days, so we only had 8 weeks this summer, and that was torture! I feel bad for you, doing 6 weeks. :(
Same where I live in England we only have 6 weeks.
We get 40 -46 in the Birmingham uk
I love when Evan asks Bry "But you know some British customs?" and Bry responds with "Oh yeah, we all do." The tone of that makes my Irish heart sing.
Bry looks like he belongs in the Panic! at the disco "I write sins not tragedies" music video
He honestly does. He looks like the groom dressed down.
"Ireland is like best buds" WITH ENGLAND? ARE YOU SURE?
+Dominique Mooney i know right, the differences and tension wow
+Dominique Mooney AT LEAST IN LOCATION AND UH...COMMON LANGUAGE
dont try and win this evan
Evan Edinger DIFFERENT ACCENTS AND EDUCATION AND THE POLITICS AND CURRENCY
Evan Edinger ASIDE FROM THAT THOUGH, A LOT OF TENSION
What I've learned from watching these videos is that Canada's culture is a mix of EVERY places culture.
YES
TRUE
+Madison Penney Same with Australia!
Canada is the place everybody loves I kinda wanna move there buttttttttt MURICA
+Madison Penney same with New Zealand!! ahahah
When St Patrick made the snakes leave the country they all came to Australia.
Yeah it's so true
that dan and phil and 21 pilots refrnce made my day
ikr
+Ammie Wolfie YESSSS
|-/
When??
same tho
Growing up in England, I never went trick or treating, my mum always forgot Easter and she doesn't like clutter around the house so Christmas is rather bare XD
Wow u just wrote my childhood, never went trick or treating my mum and dad would pretend we wasn't in so no one would come to the door, Easter always consisted of one chocolate egg from my mama and Christmas last year my mum was debating to even put the tree up if it wasn't for me being there and saying I will do it then we would of even had that, she hates the mess it makes, so I sat there one evening while my parents were at work putting the tree up all by myself such fun times 😭 lol
It's such a glorious life isn't it?
Sure is, we will just have to celebrate these holidays in our own way and make it special for ourselves haha
my children are going to be so spoilt! I'm going to force all the stuff on them that I never got to do!
+rectangularcatz mapper What was the point of that bragging to people who were obviously disappointed about not celebrating holidays how they would like too? Great job
102 DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS.
(thanks for having me chum)
+Bry and Candice ONLY 2 MORE DAYS TILL YOUR TWITTER COUNTDOWN
aghhhhhhh cri fave youtubers evaaaa😢😢😢
+twenty_first_pilot |-/
I really bri bri
+Chiara Andrighetto |-/
Eid is a Muslim holiday and its amazing. It comes after an entire month of fasting and what it is , is basically three days of adults or older people giving you money (like a lot of money ) and eating and drinking until you get a food coma . Stay out until 2-4 in the morning , wake up late , go to parties which serve an enormous amount of food. Dress up in new clothes (it's a big thing to buy eid clothes ) .
That sounds amazing!!!!
*****
Awesome :)
That's irrelevant.
muslim holidays is prob more about beheading ?
girlsdrinkfeck that's just racist
When your Northern Irish and he's the first Irish person you've heard who actually let someone call him British ahaha 😂😂😂🇬🇧🇬🇧
+Lois B Omg I was thinking that as well!
"Northern Irish"? Where's the passport mate
Lois B im from northern ireland tooo
Josh Moore lmao do you not think it's real bahahah
See im irish and if someone called me British i would FLIP!!
I applaud you for the Dan and Phil reference. I'm not even kidding, I did start clapping. I'm such a loserdork *hides*
I noticed that too. Evans such phan trash
wait what when
I'm Phan trash :3 references are the best XD
+Mandy Stahr 11:09 ^_^
I literally started clapping in pubic with the phan and tøp reference.Everyone looked at me strange
The Twenty one pilots reference made my day
same, before i was so Stressed Out
+anna rowan *slowclap*
+anna rowan amazing XDD
yeah i thought i was a Goner before that
ikr wish we could turn back time so that I could watch that again
My sports day I have to wear my pe uniform!
Same
yeh same
Sameeeeee
Damerel!
me too
I love how much bry is pissed off about it being british not irish 💚💚💚 proud of what he came from 🙈🙈
… we have to wear our uniforms for sports day…
+imcrazysosueme WHAT
Same! We had to wear our P.E. kit, and everyone hated sports day. I'd just be off sick haha
Evan Edinger yeah, proper sports uniform unless we're participating, or we'd get in trouble. And not everyone can participate, so most of us just watch and cheer and wait for the house cup announcement
Marianne Ciric it's still fun for us, because we get to sit in the ground all day and be as noisy as we want and cheer our friends on. And we get our house cup on sports day, and we may not do anything to earn house points, but we get super hyped for the results
Oh we have to participate in at least 3 events so no just doing nothing :P
And all of them are super bad apart from the tug of war (which is literally 10mins maximum) and the people not doing the certain event have to sit on the ground about 50m from the actual thing so you cant even see!
The whiskers come from within - Dan and Phil. Someone had to do it 😂💖
A wee FYI. Pancakes in Scotland are what American ones are based on. In the rUK they're called drop/dropped scones or Scotch pancakes.
Alex McArthur they're really good I make them myself xD
We used to have a field day, but they stopped that going into 6th grade
+ctyoung16 That was our last year for it too :(
+ctyoung16 I loved Field Day when I was in elementary school! That was fun!
ctyoung16 Mine was 7th grade
Did he just say Christmas isn't as big as Thanksgiving in America? That's not true at all for my family and most Americans I know. Christmas is HUGE here. I know different holidays are more important in different families, though.
In the UK we normally get together with family and eat ourselves into a coma and watch Christmas TV all day
+gracieliz95 For some reason he has made himself the spokesperson for all of america, when he should just be saying 'a video of my experience vs someone else's' it aggravates me. Especially since not everyone in america even celebrates both of those holidays. Easter is biggest in my family, in others it is christmas, some it is hanukkah, etc. Christmas is much bigger here than Thanksgiving and you can judge based on the brakes we are given from school for them.
Yea, I was like WTF! Christmas is the most popular holiday here. I always see Christmas stuff on display at stores during the summer time. We celebrate Christmas way longer than Thanksgiving. Christmas is month long celebration while Thanksgiving is like a week long celebration.
I think he meant family was bigger around thanksgiving but yeah Christmas is way bigger
Shrove Tuesday is the proper name for pancake day I believe.
Trove Tuesday
It is
+caliowin Pancake Day is the totes legit official name.
No it is srove tuesday
+caliowin In Ireland, the Catholics call it Pancake Tuesday.
When he said you know some British customs bry looks like he's having flashbacks of war
Tbh he probably is
when bry said 'well, I'm blurryface' I fuckin flipped
Ciara
SAMEE XD
you forgot about bonfire night! it is a huge holiday in my family. also on new years eve in the UK we sing auld lang syne after midnight and cross arms (i don't think that you do that in the uk). Most people watch big Ben count down and watch fireworks from other country's around the world. In my family we all go to someones house go to celebrate it.
+rosestar26 i know lots about British holidays and I take them very seriously XD
it's true ^^^
+RabidGoaticorn We don't celebrate the attempt - only that the attempt failed. And then we have Guy on a bonfire which scarily resembles witch burning. But ya'know, at least the rich lived.
+TheBrookGuitar lets all gather around the Bonfire and throw a human resembling dummy onto it. Good old fun for the whole family.
hannahisaw3som3 I know, right! Then we'll fire fireworks for about a month before and a month afterwards to just be as annoying as possible! Yay!
Thanks for the shoutout m8
+B L U R R Y F A C E I care what you think
+Evan Edinger |-/
i love that bry is like "Ireland because that's where I'm from"
Ireland is not the same and holy crap there is such a history
it wasnt actually snakes it was paganism
my cousins go to that holiday thing where you have to speak Gaelic, my cousin was telling me a story about when she was there and kept speaking in gaelic aha
I'm glad that they still teach Gaelic, I wish I could do it for my atar in aus
Couldn't breathe when he quoted tøp
Dear young Evan who doesn't have many friends:
Hey, don't write yourself off yet. It's only in your head you feel left out, or looked down on. Just try your best, try everything you can, and don't you worry what they tell themselves when your away.
Hey
You know they're all the same
You know you're doing better on your own
So don't buy it
Live right now
Just be yourself
It doesn't matter if it's good enough
For someone else
IT JUST TAKES SOME TIME LITTLE EVAN UR IN THE MIDDLE OF THE RIDE
EVERYTHING EVERYTHING WILL BE ALRIGHT
the whiskers come from within... yes they do Evan, yes they do.
Is that a deathly hallows pendant i see!?!?!?!
Never been to a state where Thanksgiving was the most celebrated holiday. It's always been Christmas
I live in Victoria, Australia. There is a public holiday for Melbourne Cup and now have one for the Friday before the AFL Grand. Final
+smokemeakipper Ahh I saw the Melbourne Cup when I was there!
+smokemeakipper at my school we also get the monday before melbourne cup
There are literally so many TOP references in Evan's video's now that i find it hard to function properly.
That phan reference 👌
Ayyee
"The whiskers come from within" I LOVE YOU EVEN MORE NOW EVAN WHERE ARE YOU MY FELLOW PHANDOM MEMBERS
Glitzy Rocker hi pham
At midnight on New Year's where I live in Ireland, people go outside the front door and bang saucepans with wooden spoons. No idea why. Also the school priest would go round to every class on the morning of Ash Wednesday and draw crosses on everyone's foreheads with ash, and everyone just wandered round with massive grey crosses on their heads all day!
+ClarIs oh yeah at my school it was always an option to go get a cross on your forehead and a bunch of the teachers would always have it
I dropped everything to watch this
+Tessa Ross omg pick up your baby
+Evan Edinger yeah I should probably do that
Lol same
I think Christmas is much more celebrated than Thanksgiving. Although I LOVE Thanksgiving also!!! FOOOOD!
I agree, but I think the day is sometimes bigger, in the sense that you are more likely to spend the day feasting with extended family if you have it, than on Christmas.
Christmas definitely had more hype to it, and you get more time off for it and new years, but I feel like people are more likely to keep the holiday between immediate family than Thanksgiving, but its different from family to family.
In Scotland trick or treating is called guising where you had to perform a joke, song, or skit to earn your sweets.
We have 2 weeks in October that used to be for young people to working in the fields called tattie howking but is now just another holiday.
We also have Rabbie Burns' day on the 25th of January where we celebrate the poet Robert Burns by reciting his poems, wearing tartan, and eating haggis, neeps, and tatties.
I'm Danish and so my grandma made up a 'Danish day' right after St. Patrick's day, because she thought that if the Irish got a holiday, we should too. We always had aebleskivers.
7:01 "Heh, Gina." Watch it, Bry
6:03 TWENTY ONE PILOTS REFERENCE OMG BRY ILYSM
THAT DAN AND PHIL AND T∅P REFERENCES THOOOOOOOOO
in Ireland you get 3 months off? wtf in Northern Ireland it's only 2 months why didn't I know this
((You get 2 months in primary school, 3 in secondary))
woooo northern Ireland!
In Australia we have 1 and a half months :(
6 weeks I'm England :(
I live in America (Kentucky) and we have 4 months off for summer (May through August)

In my elementary school (in Canada) instead of sports day, we had fun day. It's basically where we got our faces painted, then spent the rest of the day playing games with the whole school, and eating freezies. We were also encouraged to wear the craziest summer clothing we had. It was amazing!
I love these British vs. American videos! I've watched so many of them at this point and they're all so great! I've learned a lot, especially since I've always loved the British. Thank you!
I love how offended Bry is that Evan called it american vs British
In texas we had something almost exactly like flag day but we called it field day (the school year was already over by actual flag day)
In Germany it's like : " Oh , I think Jesus did something on that day , let's get that day off"
I don't really have much to input about holidays I'm from the uk and we don't really have anything special but it was amazing reading all these comments and finding out about other countries traditions and holidays and as always great video Evan! :D
Bry and Evan need to make more videos together.
This is definitely more Irish vs American than it is British vs American.
"the whiskers come from within"
WHERE THE PHANDOM AT
HEEREEEE
goldan Yay I found the phandom!!
goldan HOLA
goldan
SUPPP
yo yo yoooo!
Being English I can say some of these holidays that Bry mentions are celebrated in England but also we don't celebrate things like St. Patrick's Day.
I'm the same as you Evan. I went trick or treating till I was about 16 because I look so young. Advantages of having a baby face.
The summer holidays in England are weird. You only get half of the summer off since you break up for the summer holidays towards the end of middle/end of July.
+Beth Philosaur I'm just in it for the free candy!
Evan Edinger so was I basically. Free candy is the best candy (or sweets as i say since i'm British)
Molly Marsh あなたを愛してます That's true. :)
See I could do that theoretically, cause I'm quite short and young looking, but all my friends are like 5'8" and look older. This lady in my neighborhood makes anyone that looks older than 13 preform a song or skit in exchange for candy. So yeah I don't know what I'll do this year.
As an Irish person, the title of this video makes me INCREDIBLY angry
Well, in the UK we have 'Bonfire Night' on the 5th of November, which we basically use as an excuse to gather around a huge fire and set off loads of fireworks, but it's actually based on a failed plot to blow up the Houses of Parliament in the 1600s. At some bonfires we put a model of Guy Fawkes, the main dude behind the plot, on the fire. Fun for all the family!
Bonfire night is better than 4th July.😝
Sorry, but why are you celebrating a document being signed with fireworks?
We Brits, however, celebrate somebody trying to blow things up and how he got stopped and disembowelled. People blowing things up- that's something you have fireworks for! 🎇🎆
Cheeseanonioncrisps we celebrate the 4th of July because that’s when we signed a document kicking your English arses out of the thirteen colonies and declaring our Independence. Also Ben Franklin said it should be celebrated with fireworks so we do!! 😢🤣🤪 🇺🇸🎇🎆🇬🇧
Halloween is the BEST holiday!!! I'm not allowed to trick or treat anymore by law since I'm 16 BUT I will be taking small children trick or treating and I am going to terrify every person who comes to the door MWAHAHAHAHAHA
+Ellie Gaymer apparently it's illegal to trick or treat after age 12 in Virginia.
That's the dumbest thing I think I've ever heard. The law I mean. I think I stopped trick or treating at 16 cause it was great
+Lexii K its ok XD. most places don't enforce it but some places do and i just happen to live in one of those places apparently. besides the way around it is to chaperone younger children
wait I can't trick or treat past 16 ;-; craft
+charlieisnotahipster AGE 12????? DEFINITELY NOT FOLLOWING THAT!
6:01 / 10:29 MAKE UP YOUR MIND BRY
+UnknownVlogger I KNOW RIGHT
I think in Australia Christmas would be the biggest holiday followed closely by Australia Day. Then there's Easter where everyone goes camping, New Year's is what it is, and Anzac Day everyone attends a Dawn Service to commemorate soldiers who have fought in battle.
These video's are so much fun! I'm really surprised to heard about pancake day and sports day, I had never heard of those..
I LOVE THESE VIDEOS
+Joliemomo ジョリー
mufti day (non uniform day) is the best and I find it funny that they banned football shirts because there were always a bunch of fights between Arsenal and Chelsea fans
I got so excited when he referenced Dan and Phil with the 'whiskers' quote XD Also in Australia we call it Shrove Tuesday or Pancake Day and people usually celebrate it if they remember or have time.
We have Sinterklaas in the Netherlands. It's about getting presents and Santa is actually based on Saint Nikolaas. We don't really celebrate Halloween but some people throw a house party for Halloween. We also celebrate the King's birthday. And a lot of fireworks are actually illegal here or at least illegal to fire(?) unless it's newyears or if it's a professional firework show.
I've never been trick or treating
+Eilidh Davidson Aww man! It was the best!
You didn't talk about Guy Fawkes' Day!
That's because that's not a holiday in Ireland or america
I have just found your videos, and it looks like i won't be getting any sleep tonight... binge watching time.
for thanksgiving, we spend literally two days cooking.
we get up early to watch the macy's thanksgiving day parade, the dog show that follows it.
we eat food (we have 4 people in our family and we cook enough food to feed maybe 50 and we don't invite people over) until we all go into food comas, and then we watch christmas movies and put up our 10 foot tall tree with maybe 300 ornaments on it
no trick-or-treating past the age of 12!? But Halloween is more fun when you're a teenager because you don't have to go out with adults!! ((I LOVE Halloween. I've planned EVERY ASPECT of my costume. I'm like that.))
+zerozero I also live for non-uniform days omg
My bday is on Halloween.
Uggh, Halloween was so annoying for tall people past the age of 10 cus you go with your friends and then they were like to the friends take what you want and then look at you like your not actually meant to get anything 😒
its paNCAKE DAY MATEalso crepes and pancakes are different things in my family (from south England so) and like crepes are flatter and pancakes aren't really wrapped around chocolate, just sugar and lemon juice
Your voice is so relaxing it makes me sleepy 🌙💗
I live near New York City, and we have a few main firework shows a year, my favorites are 4th of July, Chinese New Year, and NYC Pride.
"My name's blurry face and I care what you think" starts singing stressed out only having to rewind most of the video cos I zoned out singing after that line, oops😝😝😜😉
3 months !!!??? Man in England u only get 6 weeks for summer holidays -_-
really wow
Most schools in America only get June and July off for summer Break
We do get half terms though
Immie 11 well true, but... I think a 3 months holiday has its own charm considering we get a lot hw in those halfterms compared to the summer holidays
The willow tree that's more than 6 weeks, lucky u 😝
Christmas > Thanksgiving
I didn't even see my extended family some Thanksgivings, but I always had a massive gathering around Christmas.
The Dan Howell reference was amazing
Thank you for making these videos, it's really fascinating to see the cultural differences!
In our city (In Russia) except for Valentine's day we have another kinda.. celebration day at 14-th of February. It's basically a day when our city won?.. the nazis?... Basically weve stopped nazi occupation of our city in ww2 at that day and now every 14-th of February not only we have "love post" where we send cards to each other, but we also watch horrible world war 2 films to comemmorate the victory... And I think that's quite horrible tbh, because we're little kids... So every 14-th of February I really didnt wanna go to school because I knew what was gonna happen x)
***** Well yeah.. Especially considering we were literally kids... To me personally it was pretty scarring even tho I consider myself a strong person and Ive seen some weird scary videos, but knowing for example that those are real dead people... Not fun.
***** like.... twelve x)
What the hell about the 14th of February? I'm from Saint-Petersburg and we never had to watch war stuff on those days
Xenia Velvet It's only our city. It's not for the whole of Russian of course. So it doesn't work in Saint Petersburg.
Selena Queen откуда ты? Это день освобождения вашего города от немецко-фашистских захватчиков?
Title is inaccurate. We only get 6 weeks summer holiday in Britain.
In Australia we have four holidays. The summer holidays go for 2 months (December - February) and the rest are for 2 weeks every 8-11 weeks of school.
In Scotland we get 7 weeks off for the summer holidays, 2 weeks for the Christmas holidays, 1 week in October, and another week in April or May. And a few bank holidays. That was it.
Bry's shirt distracted me every time he moved omg
I thought we called it shrove Tuesday in England as well? or is that just my area
+Amy Cooper We do call it that, but most people just remember it as pancake day
+Amy Cooper In Ireland everyone just calls it Pancake Tuesday
The cat whiskers, they come from within... I love you evan❤️❤️❤️
In the Netherlands we have this Holiday called Sinterklaas, it's quite a big deal over here it's just as big as Christmas over here
Its kinda difficult going trick or treating when you live in an area with just apartment buildings #childhood
so true. I have to go to a whole other neighborhood or trick or treat at dollar stores and super markets
+Kay Brookes most of the times I tried to go trick or treating it was either burning hot outside (thanks Texas) or raining... I had a great childhood XD
+Jessica Bonnen RELATABLE
hailey alexis like my mom would never let me get any cool costumes because it was always going to be 100 degrees outside. I JUST WANTED TO BE A GYPSY WITH ALL THOSE COOL SKIRTS. but then the one year you actually wear something that youll stay cool in it's like 50 degrees.
+Kay Brookes would it not be easier since there's so many people in the one place
my history teacher is northern irish and he said that they dont even celebrate st patricks day where he's from
+daisy baker whaaaaat
Because it's an Irish holiday.....Ireland and Northern Ireland are different countries
I'm from Northern Ireland and I can confirm very few of us celebrate it, basically bc our country is quite bigoted lmao and it's mostly Protestants that hate Ireland sns well it is where I'm from
I'm from the north, but it's probably one of the biggest holidays here haha, I guess it depends where you're from in n.ireland
Love your videos!! They make me laugh so much XD keep up the great work!
In some parts of Canada we celebrate Victoria Day which is also known as May Two-Four and many people buy 2-4s of beer which are cases of 24 beers and a lot of people get drunk and there are usually fireworks.
Nope just nope, having an irish person in a British vs American video- nooo !
Irish are not British!
We get from July to September in England but we get half terms
Yeah so do we in Ireland hahaha just never in school xox
January 26 in Australia is Australia Day where we basically just celebrate our country and dress in the colours of our flag and all Australian themed things and have a barbecue and hang out with our families and friends. We do heaps of things and I'd say it's similar to the 4th of July in America...
Shrove Tuesday ended up being Mardi Gras... the last hurrah before fasting became the biggest party ever, which, is actually pretty awesome, now that I think of it.
"Fat Tuesday" ...You mean Mardi Gras????
Yeah, but we usually say Mardi Gras. That's weird he called it Fat Tuesday, in Washington State at least, we call it Mardi Gras.
LittleMintBird We call it Mardi gras here too. Then again, I'm close to Louisiana. We don't have the huge parade that New Orleans does, but Galveston, TX does a fair job of it.
Yeah I'm from Louisiana and have been going to Mardi Gras since I was born and it's very very big holiday. Everyone gets off from school for a week or from Monday to Tuesday and we party like no tomorrow. We have parades from Friday night till Tuesday for the really big ones and maybe some small ones on Thursday. The floats throw beads, footballs (america), toy spears, stuffed animals, and coconuts on Tuesday if your really lucky. So many traditions that I don't even know where to start !
Everyone talks about how amazing Mardi Gras is and then I’m just like hey I’m from New York we don’t have anything like that. It seems so great though!! I wish I could experience it..:(
It’s Fat Tuesday in the North
Evan would you ever do a drunk advice video with friends? I feel like drunk evan would be adorkable
+anna rowan Evan and alcohol will not be on camera. He's fine enough sober
+Evan Edinger well I won't wine but I'll beer if it ever happens
+Evan Edinger didn't mean to cause offence btw, sober evan is pretty great:)
I'm from Cambodia and we celebrated the boat festival which was when many boats (not speed boats, traditional row boats) raced and student were off school
In Kindergarten and primary school we had sports week, where we went to the cinema and ice skating. And then in 5th and 6th grade we had ski camp in this week
