Fascinating documentary. Narrator got a great voice. Doesn’t scream at you and overplay everything. I hope to go one day. Thanks for posting, m8. 👍🏴
Was just there Thanksgiving 2018 and stayed at the Venetian. Our Belle Suite with an outdoor terrace was THE best hotel room we've ever stayed in hands down. Worth every penny and we will book it again this spring. Security keeps out anyone not staying in this part of the resort. Very quiet. Best part is. We came home with cash!
The more you gamble, the greater the likelihood that you will lose whatever winnings you got in the short term. Hopefully, you will have enough fun to make your losses worth it.
Mirage in the desert. Good description. Not just people who go to play the slots etc., not just the people who live and work there like any other city, not just the appearance of an abundance of water, not just the neon and glitz and fantasy - it has turned into a mirage for some of the people who were sure they could open a hotel / casino. Las Vegas is a business of fantasy creation, entertainment, food, luxury for a week, vacation, and the video brings that out really well. The heart of it is business, commerce, production and delivery of products and services - kind of like canned foods (haha).
We had coin operated breathalyzers at the bars in Carbondale Illinois back in the nineties. It was a college town and we all walked to the bars, so all the breathalyzers were for was a judge in determining who was the most fucked up.
Good video but some facts are wrong. Las Vegas in spanish means the meadows and oxygen is not pumped into the casino's. I love history of Vegas stuff though and ty for posting.
They also got the fact wrong that the strip is in Las Vegas, it isn't and neither is the airport. They are both in an unincorporated place called Paradise, Nevada.
@@Roberob1189 Las Vegas doesn't start until just before the Stratosphere so none of the major resort hotels are in Las Vegas here is a video on the subject. th-cam.com/video/naDCCW5TSpU/w-d-xo.html
@@Roberob1189 no, they do not. No oxygen is pumped into a casino. It's an old myth based on a study from Atlantic City where a scientist wanted to see the effects of aromas on people.

The casino trying to make people feel like in Paris is funny, given that casinos are illegal in Paris ! If you want to look like Paris, start by taking out the casino machines !
Las Vegas is fun for a couple of days and then...yuck! It is really the worst of American kitsch--with the possible exception of Branson, Missouri. It's a good place to party, gamble, get laid, go to a crappy show or get married--or divorced. Oh, and to get murdered in a mass-shooting. The best thing about Vegas though is that it's within a few hours drive of some of the most spectacular natural sights in the world: the Grand Canyon and the magnificent national parks of southern Utah. That would be the reason to visit in my opinion, forget everything else.
Great cinematography and video itself! Facts are a little off though. The Mormons didn’t leave Las Vegas if anything they stayed and helped build it along with the mob (sounds crazy but it’s true!) and in Spanish Las Vegas means “The Meadows”
A bit is an understatement. I think this had been made up from snippets of scrap video pieced together the best they can, then narrated by a guy who's never stepped foot in Las Vegas in his life.
But he DOES pronounce Las Vegas correctly: LASS (as in female) versus incorrect LOSS (as in poorer than you were). Don't know why, but it drives me crazy to hear a lazy pronunciation.
disney for kids VEGAS ? for adults. been to both 5 times. disney won. vegas ok but not as memorable. 3 weeks, camped in frontierland campsite inside disney florida

I FUCKING LOVE CANNED FOOD
Thank you for this video. I like that you showed us the other side of Vegas too. I look forward to visiting one day soon.
Excellent Documentary Hope Eric’s goals come true .Brave Man To Tell His Story.
This is a high quality documentary!!
Las Vegas is Spanish for "you'll go broke real quick" 😂😂😂
Yup
"By a strike of luck, gambling became legal in the early 30s"
Yes, luck. That's what it was...
in between Death Valley and Zion, and Grand Canyon and Hoover Dam, a great base for day trips.
I visit Las Vegas every January for my birthday. That city is underrated. I love it

How am I just now seeing this?? My wedding video!!! I love it!
43:20
Congratulations ❤️❤️❤️
When I was still young enough to listen to my dad, he taught me that gambling is a tax on the stupid. That tax built Las Vegas.
If the casino is oxygen-enriched, the wedding chappels are oxygen-depleted....😂
Love Las Vegas and go frequently.... Havent been able to go for the last 4 months due to the coronavirus...
Vegas might be great for a few days, but the novelty wears off afterwards.
Las Vegas is Spanish for "The Meadows."
🍀🍀
I occasionally had to work in LV. I felt like taking a shower anytime I had to pass through the strip going east to west or vice versa.
The Las Vegas oasis was first noticed in 1829 by Spanish explorers. They named this valley "Las Vegas" which means "the meadows.
What are the names of music at 4:40 and at 8:35? Thank you 🙏
las vegas is so unique ty for sharing
no, rome is unique, paris is unique....las vegas is just a strange plastic world for people who want to feel famous for a night

Jeff Henry yes they do pump oxygen in. It’s not for what most people think. As in keeping people away. It’s to combat the smoke.
Oldandwize and yes, half of it is. The airport side isn’t and the other side is.

I've lived in Nevada for 35 years and I've never been to Las Vegas.
I’m sorry
Okay, and?
sucks to be you bro. who the fuck cares about anything in Nevada that isnt Vegas (or Area 51)?
Sheldon Cooper I wanna beat him up so bad
Sheldon Cooper hi Sheldon can I kiss u
26:58 LOL DJ Pauly D from Jersey Shore XD
He's such a joke.
Las Vegas is Tagalog for "Oh crap, I gambled my paycheck away"...

If you have kids and a RV the circus circus RV park is a good choice. Reasonable price and fun attractions even if you don't have any kids ;)

No wonder the city is so rich, everyone loses their money.
38:10 PAWN STARS
People need to stop bringing their fuckin kids to Vegas, shit's mad annoying, bring em to Disney and leave Vegas to the adults.

This is a fun place, more than one time I've walked away, with loads of cash!
@9:03 You will see The Mandalay Bay used by a maniac to murder 58 tourists on Oct. 1 2017.
In the comments you will see Ed Denoy or Captain obvious, make himself look like an ass.

40:23 what a weirdo.
42:33 lol 😆 I

first vegas visit? the tower was fenced off. they ran out of construction money.
Legal Limit Driving means buzzed driving is allowed. Learning this in my home city has been one of the hardest things. It's all about knowing the law.
Great cinematography and video itself! Facts are a little off though. The Mormons didn’t leave Las Vegas if anything they stayed and helped build it along with the mob (sounds crazy but it’s true!) and in Spanish Las Vegas means “The Meadows”
Are u serious
Las Vegas - every European's nightmare.
They had the internet 5 years ago?
The Mormons half assing it, with building a Fort than left 😂 😂 😂
I have lived in Las Vegas since 1975. There are a lot of Mormons here. I guess they came back.
@Sheldon Cooper I don't know if the Las Vegas Mormons tend to gamble. I kind of doubt it. I don't myself.
32:51 Mormons WHAT?
...FUCK AT WILL.
Looks like a carnival now on the streets. Not great
wheres lucky 38 tho :/
real rtz hours ™
Buddy, Las Vegas’s population is def only ~650,000
Clark County is over 2 million.

A bit outdated and inaccurate in places

At least 6 or 7 years old judging by the look of homegirl's iphone @ 27:21
Ukelele music and xylophone music should be made illegal immediately.
the host should pronounce Nevada correctly

the most unromantic city you can find on earth....100 built to get your money
where's mr. house?? LIES
This is probably the most random, unstructured documentary ever - not to mention that a lot of presented "facts" are not even correct.
This is so amateur. How did it end up on "Best Documentary"
Not enough respect to learn to pronounce the city's name?

Imagine you are poor and watching documentary like this about an extreme rich city 🏙️🌆❤️😂🥺😅💔💃🏽🔥
Worst Commentator i've ever heard.
"Lass Vegas" hahaha pronounces it like he's about to say "lasso"
Why so Brittish?
@@AllahHuSnackbar Should be an American
This doc is bad....
They get most of the water from California NOT the damn.
Hehe not really can I kiss u
ace iconia jew York city
Not a single drop of Las Vegas water comes from California.
Keep making shit up.
You are pronouncing las vegas wrong !!! ITS LOSS NOT LASS
condescending narrator
Why dont you shut the fuck up
He’s a typical pompous Brit.
Las Vegas is not real it does not exist next question
