"She reigned for 70 years - that's the kind of thing you have in storybooks." This stopped me in my tracks. What a poignant observation.
Wow
Leeched off the public’s money for 70 years
Did she? Did she stole from you too? How much? 😂@@mlbp2567
@mlbp2567 The Royal Family create much more money than they spend, for the economy and public, due to tourism. Do your research!
Imagine having this peasant mentality! They don't care about you@@randomyoutuber6633
The lady from Germany was so sweet. Her reaction was heartbreaking, but it goes to show that the Queen touched so many people beyond just the British.
She did. And I particularly remember one photo, that was published in a newspaper here in Oslo where I live, actually before the official news of her death came out, the photo showed, not one but TWO rainbows, I believe it was in front of (or near) Buckingham Palace. She was a remarkable person.
I mean, she basically was german.
@@vloplob I believe the queen was of German heritage, I think?
@@rudycarlson8245 Yes, the house of Winsor is actually the house of Hannover. But that didnt sound too good to the british public during WW1.
@@vloplob Close. She is of the house of Saxe-Coburg und Gotha.
Queen Victoria was of the house of Hannover but she married Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg und Gotha and thus changed the dynasty to his. His dynasty continue through the paternal side all the way to King Charles. They arbitrarily changed their name to the House of Windsor after King George V’s favorite castle during WWI to not sound so German….but they were almost completely German all the way to Elizabeth herself. King George VI could not have looked more German if he tried….even his mother Queen Mary (Mary of Teck) was of a great German house. But, Elizabeth got an injection of English and Scottish through her mother. But then, Elizabeth herself ALSO married a great German noble house when she married Phillip of the House of Battenberg (Anglicized to Mountbatten due to the whole world war thing, but Phillip himself couldn’t get more German…this makes King Charles 75% German and 25% Scot/English)
She lived through WW2, she was the reigning monarch of the UK for 7 decades, she lived an entire century, overseeing her country and the world as it developed and changed rapidly over the decades. Crazy when you put it into perspective.
Millions never made it through the war
"I am honored to have lived under her reign" is really a beautiful sentiment.
Yeah
You are joking?! This is disgrace!
@@szymonbrom4443Their country will ALWAYS be the good one 😂 like any country/government is good
@@szymonbrom4443You're a disgrace
@szymonbrom4443 come over here and tell us all about it, little man. 🇬🇧
We all know that one day the Queen in her old age will eventually pass. But she had become a constant for the people of the UK for 70 years and losing her would really be a shock. It's like having known your grandmother all your life and she had always been there until she died and the world suddenly spun off its axis. Things will never be the same, and all we could do is embrace the change. My sincerest condolences to the Royal Family and to the people of the UK.
When my grandma passed, the dynamics of my family changed completely. She was the anchor that held the family together and in her death, everyone just went their own way. I pray for Britain.
@@ll2323 that’s sad to see that everyone went different ways
Thank you for your message Gay Sagabaen we all knew the queen personally and are deeply saddened by her grizzly demise.
@@ll2323 unfortunately it happens to a lot of families including mine
I believe that's how she endeared herself to her subjects in her later decades: she became the Commonwealth's grandmother.
I'm not really a monarchist but I have felt sad today. The Queen is someone who's lived through generations. My nan was a child when she was crowned and I remember my Mum taking me to London as a child to see the Princess Diana memorial. We'd always watch the Queen's speech every Christmas. She was a constant in many people's lives.
Now you know why monarchy is important
there's nothing wrong with being a republican and respecting her, she was really good at her job. Never met her, never knew her but for all intents and purposes she was the country's favourite old lady.
@@rabidmidgeecosse1336 That is true. You can like the person but dislike the institution.
God save the king doesn't sound the same
@@vilifijavz3900 it isn't
I'm an American, and I was in London sitting in a pub when the news came across the televisions. I will never, ever forget that moment as long as I live. While not British or a royalist per se, I felt and knew the enormity of it. What an incredible life lived by that lady.
I was pretty shocked. I just switched Colleges and i was starting my first day at my new college when I heard the bad news. It legit felt like the earth was slowly flattening like a pancake. I even made a video about it a day later on my previous channel which was terminated.
shoulda said to the bartender "and I'll drink to that mate"
@@godassasin8097life isn't like one of those pompous YA books you read
@@idontgetlaidbut idk what a YA book is so yea
It is pathetic feel sorry for someone who wasn't agains british death camps in Kenya!
I'm not a 'Royalist' but I had huge respect for Elizabeth II, she was a wonderful ambassador for the country and was devoted to her duty, in a way I think we shall probably never see again. She was a solid pillar in most peoples lives in the UK, certainly in my lifetime.
Deeply moved by the German lady. Such beautiful words. My love and respect to you in GB.
I thought the same .
Like she says, the Queen was part German.
A very classy lady
They were connected because Prince Phillips families were Nazis. RIP queen
Ich auch 😢
I’m 56 and live “across the pond.” I have never known another British monarch in my lifetime. Greatest condolences to the people of the UK.
We don't care, cheers.

I'm an American & I was heartbroken when she passed! I wish I could have met the Queen, even just for a moment. She had the best qualities humanity had to offer & was truly a one of a kind woman! May she, & Prince Philip, rest in peace. 😢
I am in TN, USA. I remember seeing the Queen and family on one of the earliest TV's ever. Charles is six months older than me. I have loved the Queen from that first moment and want you to know she has millions of fans in the U.S. We will miss her dearly.
Disloyal
Thank you .!Take no notice of the people that don't have any history worth talking about!
@shaundavenport621 like English people? Your history is bathed in blood, invasion and genocide. You hypocrite.
As a Canadian I've spent my entire life seeing the Queen's face looking out on everything from stamps to bills. Seeing her portraits change over the years as I'd grown older, and she had grown older too. She faced everything with such grace. Two little girls were near the magazines at the pharmacy yesterday and one pointed at an article cover and said proudly "That's Queen Elizabeth II when she was younger!" And I realized that like me they had also grown up with the Queen. She was truly an iconic figure. I don't know how I'll feel the first time I hold a bill with King Charles on it, but I know it won't be the same. To the rest of my Commonwealth family that may be mourning around the world - I'll be thinking of you!
Queen of Canada died too?
Shit man sorry to hear that
I'm a Boer. I even feel saddened by her passing.
@@rabbiama2940 you are aware that their Queen was also our Queen in Canada right? Canada is a constitutional monarchy… I’m hoping your comment was satirical
Thank you! As a Kiwi, we too are mourning the loss of the Queen, and seeing her on the $20 note just doesn't feel the same anymore
@@haven216 …same here in Canada these last couple of days when i see cash money with her face on it i get kind of upset

@@x97k8 bro what you talking about?
@@x97k8 👍👍👍
I’m sorry but she’s not really important to me at all and lot of people of the uk would probably agree. A terrible thing they did
But thank you for your sweet words, I will be respectful to the dead
Over a year and still the announcement of her passing brings tears to me.. I hope in my heart that she new how special how loved and admired. She was our monarch our queen . Never is there to be another like her.. rest in peace ma'am.
I am an American who has honored the Queen all my life. It was heavy in my heart when she died.
Despite her age it was a shock. Still is.
I’m Canadian so she was our Queen too. Saw her back in 1973 when I was a very young child and I can still visualize her car driving by as I waved.
Whether or not you were part of the Commonwealth, she was a constant for so many in the world. She exemplified so much and we thank her for her service. May she Rest In Peace.
it was a huge shock? how so, she was 96. its not like she was 26.
No, Diana dying was a shock. She was a healthy woman with very young children who was still young herself. Elizabeth was 96... anybody dying at 96 isn’t a shock.
@@deficator750 shes been there all the time we’re alive.. its weird but its shocking for some reason
@@cachalotreal death is always shocking i guess
wannabe brit
death to "constitutional" monarchy, this country will become a republic in our lifetime.
My heartfelt condolences to the UK. I'm from Portugal, where her majesty visited twice. The first time in the 1950s. A huge crowd gathered to welcome her when she arrived, among them our current president who was just a little boy at the time. He met with her majesty recently, just a couple years ago and the Queen mentioned how well received she had been back than. Truly a world icon spanning several generations.
Thank you Joao, our love from the UK

@@VeraDonna hahahah estas pessoas realmente
@Aldo Steinbach Isto já está a comédia que está, imagina ainda meter o Pio de Bragança como chefe de estado, incrível.
Thank you Joao. From me and the rest off the uk
I was talking to my friend on the phone when a news flash appeared on screen. I'd been waiting for an announcement, but it was a shock nonetheless. It took a few moments before I could explain to my friend why I'd gone quiet.
I'm not a royalist, but her death saddened me because she had been a constant through the whole of my life, and regardless of what her critics say, she was an amazing example of duty being fulfilled. We will not see her like again.
When I heard about her passing it also moved me almost to tears. She has been on the throne for so long.... And no matter what happened - she was always there. I'm from the Netherlands. In our monarchy the Kings and Queen usually quit when they are around 75 years old. Would have wished for her that she would have been able to do as well. Retire somewhere in the country with her dogs and horses. But yes, I did feel sad.
As a Brit. I found out on the train on the way from school to London, it was insane. Everything just went quiet and you kept hearing gasps or quiet crying. It was so so sad.
57 ok my dear you are a very important person i really need you to save me i have been broke for a long time due to impossibility and it is difficult for me to find a job so i beg you the best of me find 5ghc for food aid please
Some people don’t get it. It’s weirdly irrelevant whether you love or despise the royal family. The queen just brought this sense of stability to us and she was always there.
she gave nothing , absolutely nothing, like most of the aristocrats but go ahead and praise them.....so shocked that an old lady of 96 died..lol
Is difficult for me to bealive that masons actually give a crap about those like me because i can see the fruits of their work.....millions and billions for them, scrap coins for the rest. There were things to do, a much better system to build, but no. Im not gonna praise this aristocrats that beyond close doors bealive they are better then 99% of the world....you may not bealive this but is the truth.
@@mihaisorinneacsu7539 I bet you talk a lot at parties…
@@dcdx8966 aha.
Always there for what? I don’t understand all the random waffle people are going on about 😂
@@haaagey She represented the British identity or figurehead. Like the Nile is a fixture of Egypt, the American Flag, The Eiffel Tower, the Taj Mahal, the Queen was a monument for her country. It means a lot to a country when someone gives up their individuality and takes on a life as a representative. Never stepping down. Never saying “No this is inhumane to ask someone to embody a National identity” What she gained in wealth and privileges she gave up in opinions, any sense of individual self, and never quit on them. I couldn’t have lived that life. I don’t know many who could. And I doubt her son can live up to being that neutral monument without an opinion.
As I said to a friend, Britain feels like a ship that's lost its Captain. 😢
I was just chilling in the living room, when my mum bursted into the room and said, "My God. The Queen's dead!"
And she started crying.
7 minutes of hugging.
And I just finished The Crown Season 5.
Rest in peace, the true Boss Queen of HK
I’m no royalist but I’m upset too because the queen brought us a level of stability
Same. I don't really like the royal that much but somehow i kinda liked the queen. Rip Queen Elizabeth.
yes, me too. She just was always there.
Wtf are you talking about? Did you forget what happened the past 5 years with the constant elections and Brexit
@@dresdi what did she had to do with Brexit or the elections? Her position was above those kind of matters. That's just the thing with having a monarch and not a president.
now we have liz truss. yayyyyy.
She was like the bridge to different generations, our great grandparents, grandparents, parents, ourselves, and our future kin have all lived at the same time as her reign and so much has happened during that time. This connection is something special and significant.
Couldn’t agree more. She was the constant both in leadership and as a symbol for a nation and for many in the rest of the world. Also a great connection to the past for so many and for us in the present, and now it has been lost.
agreed... but GREAT grandparents??? for you maybe, not for me - my mum 's 85, so her, yes - her parents alive at her coronation. my dad too. his parents? "When her father died in February 1952, Elizabeth-then 25 years old-became queen" my dad's dad died in 1949, so no - his mum, 1963 so no. so 3/4 of my grandparents saw the change from King to Queen. and hun, "future kin" - the ones who haven't been born yet?? I understand the sentiment, but can't see how that is possible.
Very true
She was also a symbol of evil for most people around the world
🚬🚬🚬
It feels weird watching this again for the second time almost 2 months after the Queen passed away, feels longer ago than that. Despite the sadness there was a special feeling during those weeks. I definitely felt more connected to people at that time, I think we were nicer to each other. Rest in peace Ma’am x
1:30 “I feel very proud very humble to lived under her reign” what a beautiful words from a British lady. God bless the Queen 👑
Even better
“I dont ever know who you are”

As you are probably aware, the late Queen shares a lot of German ancestry on her father's side.
The german lady mentioned the Mountbatten/Battenburg connection, but her paternal grandmother was Mary of Teck, her ancestors were from Wurttemburg and Mecklenburg. 👍
@@jx2729 Aren't you aware that all European royalties are related?
I actually found out while I was at work. I saw the news and as soon as I read that she passed away, I just froze in shock. It was on TV moments after she died. I just stood there frozen and speechless for a few seconds. I ran to my co-workers telling them to turn on the news and they couldn’t believe it either. I also texted my mom and she said history was being made. It was a very shocking thing to see.
I hope you have got over your sad loss of Prince Andy pandys mummy.

As a Texan/American, when the news came, I was deeply saddened to hear about the death of HM Queen Elizabeth II. She was truly (in my opinion) the best Queen to reign the UK and other parts of the world. Such a Wonderful Woman with a life full of Legacy…
She reigned the whole of the UK- Scotland, England, Northern Ireland and Wales- we are 1 nation in 4 countries. I’m from Scotland and she died in Balmoral Castle, near my city. She loved Scotland :)
@@Starsnotdiamondsthat’s very touching. she was a very good person. the best queen in my opinion.
I am American and felt so sad when I heard. Just so sad. Looking back on her coronation... just absolutely beautiful. Her passing marked the end of the era. A more noble, dignified time. A time before the throwaway trash culture of today. She was like a symbol of beauty and tradition. Of things that were real and timeless.
As a Canadian I’m very sad by her passing. I was raised by my granny and she taught me to respect the queen. I’m also half First Nations and it still saddens me. I pray for her majesty and her family. God bless Queen Elizabeth
May God rest her soul, the Queen of all us Canadians, whether First Nations, French or British

Im from the US but when me and my friends heard the news it brought us all tears. I was surprised, I mean (I don’t mean this is a literal sense) she’s one of those people you expect to live forever. For everything she has done I thank her. It’s been a year since her passing but watching this brings back a lot of the feelings I had that day.
A way you can know how iconic she is is how you can litterally just say “the Queen” and people will know who you are talking about, she was an icon and an amazing queen, may she Rest In Peace
That's why I loved the French president's tribute to the UK most of all: "To you, she was your queen. To us, she was _The_ Queen."
Well... she has been the queen for the past 70 years
She was the most famous living woman
You mean Lady Gaga THE Queen.
@@kaysmith8992 that's because France isn't a monarchy anymore. In the Netherlands we would call our own king or queen... 'the king' or 'the queen'. It's kind of coincidental we have a king now, because we had queens for a long time during the reign of their queen.
It all feels so surreal. She's always been there for my entire life. I'm Canadian, and she was the Queen of Canada, as well. Her picture is on our money. We have many stamps with her picture. The highway south of where I live is named after her. There's a mountain range named after her in this province. If I go to Maligne Lake, I would see the range. I knew that this would come some day, but it felt like she would always be there, you know? It hit me harder than I expected. I've been watching videos of her amazing sense of humour. She seemed like a wonderful lady.
Same bro,I was driving by the QE2 highway today and then it hit.
"I knew that this would come some day, but it felt like she would always be there' you know?"
You've encapsulated mine and so many people's exact feeling with those words I am sure!
Same in Australia. Her head has been on all our coins and one note for as long as I've been alive. I'm in my 50's, and she's the only Sovereign I and most have known our whole lives. Rest in peace your Majesty ♥
Putin has been the head of Russia, all my life, whats your point exactly?
She wasn’t queen of Canada. She was queen of the commonwealth which we are included in.
I am American, and when I heard about her death, I almost wanted to cry. When I was child, I would always look up to the queen thinking she was so cool because she was a women ruling a whole country. She’s done so much for her country and I am honored that I have lived during her reign. Her majesty can finally rest now after 70 years, love from America❤️

@@boutiquebitcoin809 The longest ruled king was King Ludwig XIV from France for 72 yeras and 110 days, in 17 and 18 century.

The Queen had become a mythical figure to all of us. We felt that she would go on forever. The speed of her death coming just several hours after the first reports of her declining health and concern by her doctors took everyone by surprise. I certainly expected there to be at least a couple of days as her health deteriorated. Having seen that final set of photos where just two days prior the Queen had met with Liz Truss made the news even harder to digest- although she looked frail she did appear to be vibrant and in good spirits. Whatever condition she was suffering from was obviously much worse than what was being reported by the media- we weren't really prepared for what happened. I still cannot believe she's gone. The Queen has been the one constant in the world throughout my life- a succession of Presidents, Prime Ministers and Popes have come and gone over the past 70 years but the Queen has remained, steadfast and regal. The Queen is dead, God save the King.
Well said.
She was blessed with the perfect passing. No suffering, no illness, no prolonged bed stay. Died in her favourite home surrounded by family. Not many of us will get this.
Quite so. I had expected that when the time came there would be a sort of statement such as the one made for King George V: ’The King’s life is moving peacefully toward its close.’
Very well said
No.
Everyone so eloquent and sincere. Very very touching. We grieve too, from the US.
As an American, I was absolutely devastated. I'm not one to support monarchy but she as a human was incredible. I mean, I knew one day it would happen but you also don't expect it, ya know? She's been the queen my entire life. I'm only 19. It's a hard adjustment for sure
Canadian here. A friend of mine were chatting about it this evening and found out we had similar reactions when we'd heard this afternoon. I had said that she was like the North Star, a constant, knowing where she was, and just that she was there. He had said that she was a mooring, a safe harbour knowing she was there. To those across the Commonwealth and anywhere else who are remembering her, lots of us are, and hopefully, good thoughts.
We’re well said.
Indeed...Wonderfully put my friend.
Well said, regards from your Commonwealth sibling Australia

While I never thought she was actually immortal, it's unfathomable to think that she has gone. She has been our steadfast figurehead throughout almost all of our lives, and she will be greatly missed.
I take comfort in the fact that she lived a long, happy life, and died peacefully, surrounded by her family, in a place she loved. We can all only hope our own lives in such a way.
The woman in the white blouse said it perfectly for me. Very happy to have lived under her reign.
I spent that entire day with a lump in my throat.
Still affected. 😔
RIP QE II 👑
A friend said to me they knew how the world worked but somehow had convinced herself the Queen would live forever. I think many of us had done the same. My parents are both 73. There is literally nobody their age or younger with any memory of life in Britain other than with her as our Head of State. The social change that occurred during her reign is remarkable.
Im not a monarchist but the queen was most respected and my heart felt thoughts are for her she will be greatly missed.
i am, and thank you for your kind and respectful words.
Shame she defended a pervert on her way out
Agreed.
Same. You need not be a monarchist to have respect for tradition and history.
It sickens me that some people are taking advantage of a captive audience to spout their edgy anti-monarchy views. This isn't an appropriate time for politics.
I'm British & we did think an awful lot of her, those reactions were 100% genuine!
Long like the memory of *Elizabeth the Great!* 👑
Her Majesty did reign for seventy years! She made that honest and heartfelt message when she was speaking on her twenty- first Birthday when she was in Cape Town, South Africa. I was sad when she died in 2022!😭 I loved what the Lady from Germany said about her! Some of the people just thinking about it were tearing up! It's sad when anyone dies! and The Queen has been around through many things and through peoples lives! I love how the couple who were speaking said, " We knew her from when we were young, in the early nineteen fifties when she was still Princess Elizabeth, We saw her coronation and it is really upsetting. She was a very devoted queen and she'll be very honored!" She was a huge role model figure as a Queen and Monarch and as a person she'll Probably be the most famous British Monarch! She is well respected and I admire her and respect her! Her devotion to service was a lifelong thing for her but she did it and even till she passed she did stuff! You'll never know how much a person meant Until they unfortunately pass on! Some people got a huge shock from HM Passing away I got one too because we were looking at an article because the news said that she was not doing well and we admire the British royal family a lot and we were nearly finished reading the article and we saw the red bar at the top that said," Operation London Bridge has started " and We said Oh the Queen died!!!! NOOO My Mom went to do something and I was shocked and My Grandma likes to read news and she loves the royals as well and I asked if she knew she said yes and we had an awkward silence Moment! My Great- Grandmother was alive during the coronation of Queen Elizabeth and she passed in 2022 as well which was weird! @MatthewCYN15 I like how you expressed how you knew about Her Majesty's Death I Like how you said that she is the True Boss Queen of the UK! You're exactly right! You were watching the Crown and your Mom came in? I want to watch the Crown soon... She will be forever missed and know when she died that she has future Generations in her amazing family to rule just like her! My Mom was from Johannesburg South Africa and From young Her and her family admired them and When I was younger I admired them and I still do! RIP Ma'am HRH Queen Elizabeth II. 👑❤❤

Were you expecting a Mardi Gras?
Someone commented here that the Queen made the U. K. Look better. I never really thought of it before, but it's true. When it seemed like Parliament and society had all lost their common sense, we would just say, "Well at least the Queen has her head on her shoulders"
She loved her country. I think every country she have a statesman as dedicated to the good of her people as she was.
It's crazy to think that there are people that were born, lived and died only knowing her as their queen.
Everyone face is like "isn't it obvious?"
She was truly an icon, you could say “The Queen” and you would know exactly who you were talking about
She was mostly taken for granted when alive but now she's gone we realise just how much she meant to us and how much she did for us all in our country. It's only until something's gone that you really appreciate it.
God rest her soul.
God save the King.
She meant a lot to the world too. The USA honors the Queen very much
Agree. As my late husband’s grandmother used to say ‘ You never miss the water until the well runs dry’.
No
I don’t think she was taken for granted at all. Most people loved to Queen. Even many of them that don’t care for the firm or others in the royal family
No dear she stole stuff from asia and her family has a history of abuse and racism
I always knew word traveled fast, but I never really comprehended how fast until the Queen died. I heard from someone sitting in front of me in class about 2 minutes after they’d announced her passing, and then within 5 minutes as I was walking through the halls everyone was talking about it to people they didn’t even necessarily know. Feels so recent but its already been almost 4 months.
Ras we was s4
British people getting emotional about their queen dying, meanwhile in France people are still laughing about cutting off their king's head 200 years prior.
Jesus, These peoples genuine reactions are actually sad. While the internet is making horrible jokes about it.
Rest In Peace Her Majesty, The Queen. ❤️🇬🇧
People are making comments about it because the monarchy was a constant evil for a lot of poorly treated nations and it's constantly brushed under the carpet so that national pride can shine;, the tradition is disgusting and damaging and should die
Usually is isn't the internet making awful jokes, but people making awful jokes on the internet. In other times there were awful jokes on TV, the radio, the newspapers, or talking.
Their reactions are utterly embarrassing. Why? because she was pampered all of her life and died in luxury of old age! How the fuck is that "The saddest thing"...? These morons haven't experienced true loss or heartbreak clearly.
Lizzie’s in a box!
@@TheWizardYeof you will be too
I'm Australian (she's our queen too) and when I woke up in the morning to hear the queen died I honestly didn't believe it. I googled "queen" fully expecting her to be alive and well. I mean at her age it shouldn't be so surprising but because of the fact that she had lasted so long and at 96 could still get around and do her royal duties kind of makes you think that she sort of will never die. I really just didn't know what to think at first until like a good few hours later that I had gathered my thoughts. To be honest I sort of still don't know what to think, I don't know how to accept this that she's gone. She was truly a great woman and I highly doubt we will see the likes again. Truly a grandmother to generations of people from Commonwealth realms and across the world.
God Save the Queen and may she rest in peace in heaven above.
Aussie too, and I was literally telling my mother the Thursday when it showed her Majesty greeting the new PM and talking about her health, that they keep going on about her health, and it's like they're rushing her death. The next day she was gone. My mother is elderly and has dementia but she was beaming with a smile when she saw her. She always loved her. God rest our gracious Queen.
God save our Queen.
I heard that she was under medical supervision, that she was comfortable and her immediate family were travelling to Balmoral to be with her. That did not bode well. That afternoon I was near Green Park. At around 6pm I took a walk to the Palace, I just felt a need to go. As I walked around the side of BP I looked up to the flag, it was fully raised, I breathed a sigh of relief. I convinced myself that she would perk up after a couple of days rest.
I hung around, looking at the tourists, (there must have been no more than twenty people there), then I looked up and to my horror the flag was flying at half mast. I realised she had gone. I burst out crying. People around me asked what had happened, I said the Queen has died. At that second I got a notification on my phone from Sky News confirming. I stayed there for maybe half an hour. I made my way home, up the Mall heading for the tube station.
People, lots of them were heading the other way, towards the palace, most carrying flowers. As I sat down on the platform, waiting for the tube, there was one already in, I couldn’t be bothered to get on it, thought I’d wait for the next one. As the tube pulled out, I looked up in front at the advertising posters and there she was, QEII in her beautiful glory as a young Queen, I couldn’t believe it. It was eerie, but comforting.
I adored her. She inspired me, her wisdom her faith, and her smile, I will never forget. I know Charles is our king now, but, I’m not quite ready to let QEII go, I need more time. Rest in glorious peace, Elizabeth the adored. ❤️🇬🇧😔
@@MyMagical1 and then everyone stood up and clapped.
Sheep
I was so surprised when the Queen passed. I knew it was coming since she was already quite old and especially since Prince Phillip had just passed away but I didn’t properly process that it would happen. It felt like maybe the Queen somehow would be immortal. I was quite saddened by it. I was more upset about the Queen’s passing than my own grandfather’s death in 2021. Queen Elizabeth had been the queen for my whole life, my parents’ whole lives, and since my grandparents were babies. She was a constant throughout our whole lives. And she was a huge part of British identity. If you asked a bunch of random people what the first thing is that they think of when they hear the word “Britain”, I good chunk of them would say the Queen. Red Phone boxes, double decker buses, the royal guards, and the Queen. Those are the symbols of the UK. Even if I never met the Queen, she had a huge impact on my life.
I live in New Zealand, my grandparents live in the UK. I would only get to see them once every 2 years for 6 weeks. Occasionally I would talk to them on a video call but I never felt like I had anything to talk to them about so I didn’t talk to them often. My grandparents haven’t been a big part of my life since I was a little kid. When my grandfather passed, nothing really changed for me. I never talked to him before so it wasn’t like I was suddenly missing his presence. Occasionally I forget he’s dead because my life feels exactly the same as when he was alive. The queen’s death has a much bigger impact on my life so I felt saddened by the news. I even feared up a bit when I found out because I was upset that my one constant that I could rely on was gone. I’m going to have kids one day and they’re only ever going to know Britain as having a king. That’s crazy to me.
Im American and a proud one at that. A Descendant of Scottish and Irish colonials who fled British rule. And while I still hold that old familial grudge for grievances long past. Going back through all this I cannot stop myself from weeping though I know not why. Not my Queen. Not my government. Not my country. Not even my people really. Not anymore. But words cannot express the depth of my sorrow for you all. I am so very sorry. May her Majesty Rest in Peace.
This American sends condolences to the people of the UK and the Royal Family. Queen Elizabeth was a great lady and will be sorely missed.
thank you
Thanks😭
Hahaha 🤣
Thank you. I have cried so much.
@@grrr.9998 ✈️💥
These reactions are just beautiful. Truly, they are. Don't take that the wrong way...I find it VERY touching and quite lovely to see how emotional everyone becomes when they learn of her passing...just goes to show how truly beloved she was. And I love to see the love and support just about everyone is giving King Charles. Wish we were more like this in the U.S.
My condolences to all who loved and adored her. Rest peacefully.
Cringe
Thank you Stefanie :( xxx
Agree Stefanie
I dont think hell is a peaceful place ....because if you actually knew the queens track record wouldn't be saying that
@@garrywatson1832 "Garry"
I’m still so sad over the loss. I get very teary when I watch this.
Thank you for this video. It's so moving
To put it in perspective, her first Prime Minister was Winston Churchill. It’s really incredible to think of just how long she reigned. My heart goes out to the UK for this significant loss.
I don't know if British realise this, but she made your country look better. Royalist or not, she did amazing job. To say she was privileged? No thank you, I like my life. She lived a life or service, to the very last day.
People see jewels, money, castles, but what they don't see is you can never escape, you're always on standby, can never just go off on holiday, all these people to meet and places to go that you probably have no interest in, world leaders that likely annoy the life out of you, always rules and protocol to follow,, always got to be dressed up, optics to think of, abd you're never fully safe. In effect, you're a glorified public servant whose time is never your own. A gilded cage, if you will. I wouldn't fancy it much.
Oh we know. We know. 😢🇬🇧
@@ChrisAndCats Also she was 18 at the end of world War 2, where she also served in the army and had to watch her country get destroyed and London get turned to rubble. She lost her father early and had to help Great Britain rebuilt and stay strong through turbulent times (cold war). Even if she wouldn't have had all the ceremonial and representative stuff on her as well, her uplifting and supporting her people through those times was difficult enough
@@HughShower sensible people know ☺ some others however, not so much.
@@ChrisAndCats Well sad. Fancy castles, jewels, money and sumptuous surroundings mean nothing when you are tired, in pain, depressed, sad .. and we all experience those feelings and emotions including queens and lords. And that constant meeting of people, smiling, handshaking having cameras on your every move, word, expression - as you say - a gilded cage. I wouldn't fancy it either, but if you are born to it, you don't have a lot of choice unless you abdicate like Edward VIII or do a runner like Harry.
I’m American but have been an admirer of Queen Elizabeth for my whole life. I’ve never known another Monarch. My condolences to the people of England and all of her Majesty’s territories. God bless her and the people of Great Britain.
0:37 _"Lord... I- uh.. can't be any happier."_
I'm a 25-year-old guy from Taiwan. I feel sad about the death of the queen as well. The Queen's 70-year reign as British monarch is a great achievement. We would like to express our deepest condolences. She is so gracious that at some moment I feel she just like my grandma.😭😭
64 nice my dear but today i realy need u to save me im broke this year due to sickness so i beg u the best with respect to found me 5ghc for food help please
Honestly I'm not sad fully because the queen died, I'm sad because my grandma who recently passed away was a huge royal family fan and the queen reminds me so much of my grandma. I hope they're up there having tea and cake in heaven together and being best friends like I always thought they would be if they met.
Who asked
@@lilkidalii there’s no need to be rude, this was a very sweet story.
@@garfield_tv again.. who asked
The Queen doesn't even know you how does she remind you of your grandmother?
@@sai_Indurthi my grandma acted just like her and vice versa.
i still miss the queen, im of irish ancestry so i dont have a positive view of the royals as a whole, but Elizabeth II made many great choices in her reign and left the world a better and more peaceful place than when she entered it. She is one that hundreds of years from now will still be in the history books and on tests, its crazy living through history!
I was in London in late May. Got to visit St. George’s Chapel, where Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip were buried, may they rest in peace
I think the queen is one of the most important people in modern history. She was deeply loved all over the world and faithful in her commitment to the Commonwealth. I have such a deep respect for her and her legacy. I believe she instilled a lot of wisdom into the next generations of the royal family. Regardless of their faults, the Queen's example to her family will continue to challenge them to follow her example well.
When kids died or tradegy happened. She refused to pay respect as she believe a royal isn't some sort of a charity show.
Loved all over the world? She killed our people how can we love her? Nonsense don’t talk about other nations
Deeply hated all around the world
Yeah after she colonized many countries.
@@baconpancakes8899 she visited those injured from the Manchester bombing in hospital for one example
From Morocco, our condolences to the British people
I mean the shock is what gets me. She was almost 100. She was going to go at some point.
Yeah 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
I saw her many years ago at the cenotaph in London for memorial weekend. My dad met her and said she was incredibly kind woman, still is a shock nearly a year later
Seventy magnificent years. Fifteen UK prime ministers, fourteen US presidents, seven popes. One Queen. She was an icon of stability and constancy in an ever-changing world. I grew up knowing Elizabeth II reigned in London, that she was The Queen, that she was always there. I may be American, but my ancestors came to the New World from Kent and Scotland and since I was young, I’ve always admired and greatly respected her and what she symbolised. My heart goes out to our British brothers and sisters. It’s still so hard to believe she’s gone. May she rest in well-deserved peace.
I was in Niagra Falls Canada and I looked at my phone and saw the news. In a shocked state, I announced the news to my kids and a British couple walking by stopped dead in their tracks and said "What?" in the most surprised voice ever. I am really glad I got to share this moment with one of my British commonwealth cousins and I will always remember where I was and what i was doing when I heard the news.
Imagine they told these people the queen died when she actually didn’t.
I’m still not over the loss of our beloved Queen Elizabeth. Miss her so much 😭🇦🇺🇬🇧
I am not a British. However I am very saddened to hear that the Queen has passed. I was named after the Queen, and after I knew that I've learned to love her as well.
You’re Canadian or American or Australian??
@@peterjohnisbackthere not the only other countries in the world you know
@@peterjohnisbackAmerican is the least likely one. America isn’t part of the Commonwealth
Wheter you liked her or not, she was an AMAZING queen and an extremely important HISTORIC figure. 😭😭😭😭
I agree brother.
Why?
She was a colonizer. A lot of people died because of her....
@@Demetris59 exactly. nobody seems to understand this 🤷🏽♂️ they just keep repeating stupid things🫠
@@Demetris59 A lot of people died under every government ever created. Should we get rid of all of them? Trying to hold someone accountable that was neither in control of but merely a representative is absolutely silly, especially considering the events happened long before Elizabeth's reign. Was she supposed to build a time machine?
I was working when the alert came on my phone. It came as a sad shock to me as an American. She was a constant presence
She is here in spirit with all of US 💕🙏💕🙏💕🙏💕🙏💕🙏💕🙏💕
Turns out she was a symbol of consistency to people from this. I like how the lady said how she thought 70 years as a queen was like a fairy tale best in the video. with a straight face. RIP Queen Elizabeth II. Long live the ....errrr....king? nah.... truly the end of an era
Nobody is going to revere goofball and questionable moral judgement King Chuck and the woman he cheated on Diana with. Not gonna happen.
King Charles & Dizzy Lizzy as PM. UK is well & truly f*cked
It's been sort of confirming for me. In my (danish) family we actually discuss monarchism and republicanism now and then. I'm sort of the fence-sitter among us where my dad is more sympathetic to our queen and my youngest sister is vividly opposed to any monarchs. My stance has always been that ideologically I think it makes sense that no family should be above any other, like what you see in a kingdom, but in consitutional monarchies I also think it's quite clearly a stabilising elements, at least as long as the monarch in question faces checks and balances, and doesn't test them.
Our queen is quite old as well, so we face a situation like this in the not too distant future.
She's not a symbol she is a real queen and she served her country her whole life. She faught at the end of world war 2. She helped Germany pick up the pieces from that horrible war. She didn't run from Hitler like lot's of European countries did. She is the top diplomat for the UK.
@@christineperez7562 She didn't need to run, Germany had bigger fish to fry.
I lost my grandmother on the 25hth anniversary of Diana’s death. I found out of the Queen’s passing in the middle of my grandmas funeral. Even in the midst of our sadness. Hearing of the Queen’s passing during the service felt like another blow. Although we love in the US, Her Majesty was a constant in our lives. She was the one thing certain and stable in a world of chaos. My heart breaks for all of her subjects as well as her family. May she Rest In Peace alongside her beloved Phillip for eternity.
I just happened to be online and I saw it there, only one station covering it everybody else was on regular TV which is how it should be for everything, she was old but it’s still a shock especially for the The British,I’m sorry for your loss
People think that it would be like announced on the BBC -She would say goodbye to everybody, and then float off in a balloon piloted by fairies to her death, everyone was shocked that she died.
I am not a British citizen, but I am mourning. The Queen was an example to us all. God grant her eternal peace!
What are you mourning about?😂 You’re not the one paying for her
example of what?
An example? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
yeah, such a enslaver icon
good morning to you aswell
The Queen has been around for so long, that we began to see her as Immortal. She was always there, she shall always be there. However nothing’s Forever. 😢
I grew up in a perceived Diana vs the Queen rival - Diana, so beautiful, won in my mind of course. But in my early 30's - I saw that the Queen was quite stunning when young and her dashing husband as well (which made my mouth drop to see the DOE as a fox as a young man). I learned that both women cared deeply about people, but had different talents. QEII was steady and reliable and consistent and could inspire greatly with a few words. She clearly had a great sense of fun - jumping out of a helicopter for the olympics (well, going along with all of that) - we didn't get to see that until later. My friend went out her way to make sure she was the one to tell me QEII passed, I knew it was imminent, but still to hear those words....and I'm an American.
I dont understand why they get surprised, i mean, she was almost 100 years old
I’m not shocked a 96 year old died. We will all be lucky to live a life that long. Though her existence was brilliant to see. RIP
Agree with you
Of course,
It's rare to live until 96 bcoz we all actually do some work for most of our life to feed us and our family.
That bitch had lived entire life on State's money, doing nothing rather than roaming around and producing some babies
