Colin, Shaun and Otis You guys stand out, among other vloggers NB. Really look forward to the quality of interesting content you share. It's like having Ed Sullivan show on the old box every Saturday night to tune in. My parents loved that show. I just knew they would leave after the show and go to bed. Then for my brother and myself, it was the waited next episode of Dr.Who & Monty Python!!!
So happy to get the alert that this video had been uploaded. Was a pleasure to take you guys up the electric penstock locks that take you onto the Union canal from the wheel. Lock 2 is 17 feet tall, not counting the massive double cill. Before this new cut of the canal the place was a bit of a nightmare. An open cast mine that ran for many miles during the early 80s. when they filled the mine in it looked like the surface of the moon. So good to see what it is now. Thanks guys.
And with this episode, you made me cry like a baby... Yes, tears streaming down my cheeks as I write. You see, my favourite uncle, Tom, a brilliant engineer, came back to Ireland (where we lived) from a visit to Scotland and with enormous passion, described this new engineering phenomen he had visited - the Falkirk Wheel. He reached for a brochure and walked me through it with the same enthusiasm and passion as you did--a brochure I still treasure today. Sadly, neither Tom nor his beautiful wife Bridie are with us today, but they were my saviours! Growing up as a shy gay boy in a small village in the West of Ireland, they knew what I would face, and theirs was the home where I was safe from the hostile world outside. Not only was I welcome in their home, but they encouraged me to bring my gay friends over for dinner or coffee, or to just drop in. I miss the joy and the laughter of that home and the many nights of fun and warmth and happiness we had there. So I'll cry a little more and then be grateful, and if there is a heaven, I hope they are both flying with angels. And much as I already loved your channel, I love it all the more now. Heartfelt thanks.
I remember visiting the Falkirk Wheel on our way to Edinburgh, we where staying in Glasgow and my mom wanted to go to Edinburgh to visit the Royal Yacht. So on our way there we stopt at the Falkirk Wheel. Sadly we did not take a trip, but we did walk the length of the tunnel to the other side and remember that there was some really nice open area to walk. After that we got something to eat, and I still carry the keychain souvenir on my car keys to this day. After that we want to the Royal Yacht, driving back to Glasgow we both remarked that we had a great day. The weather was absolutely great for what was I believe late september.
Absolutely brilliant Colin and Shaun the drone footage of the Falkirk wheel is amazing as specially the views of Scotland and the special affects in the tunnel is very good as well this video is getting better and better every day keep up the good work guys and I shall watch the 360 degree of the Falkirk wheel on the other channel.
Hi Colin and Shaun, great video! The trip through Roughcastle Tunnel was really quite the 'trip'. The Falkirk Wheel amazing. As usual thank you for the history. Take care, stay well. Much love Kathy x 💖
Omigosh, your videos are so fantastically produced. I never thought I'd be so interested in the history of canals in a different country, but I've learned so much from you guys. Thank you as always! I hope to make it back to the UK someday soon for a narrowboat holiday. And an extra star to Scottish Canals for making access to the Falkirk Wheel free!
Just phenomenal! It actually looks like a ride at a theme park. The whole presentation is extraordinary, which is what I’ve grown to expect from you two. Now, if you lads will pardon me, I have a 360 view video to watch!
The Roughcastle Tunnel with editing... makes one thunk that mayhaps some other things were consumed in your past, it gave me a bit of an enjoyable flashback 😜👍
Even a mad scientist back in the days would never ever thought it would take only the energy of boiling water in 8 kettles to lift a boat. simply UNBELIEVABLE
Brilliant video. One of the best I've seen on the Falkirk Wheel. Its an incredible piece of engineering. Thanks Colin for the informative commentary. The drone shots really add to this video, putting the wheel in context. Happy New Year....
So glad you guys enjoyed the big Wheel. We went on the trip boat a few years ago whilst visiting friends in Dunbar. Both the fellas were engineers & loved the mechanics of the wheel. We ladies enjoyed the views in glorious sunshine. Its an amazing trip. xxx
I grew up basically around the corner from the Wheel. Literally the closest street. Growing up, the Wheel always felt less special so to say, why would it. It was just there for me. But as I've grown up I can appreciate it's brilliance.
Wow what an amazing journey that was and the research you have done on it all is second to none. Well done Colin, you are the perfect man for making really interesting and informative documentaries. Keep up the excellent work. Now heading over to the 360
Came all the way from Australia to go and see this engineering marvel several years ago, thanks for all the facts to refresh the grey matter. Great video as usual, enjoyed every second of it.
Great to watch the 360 video. Amazing to see such a massive piece of equipment move so precisely. I didn't even need a sweater or coat to enjoy the trip.
That was the best vlog I have ever seen of the Falkirk Wheel. Your commentary was superb. Loved it. Take care guy's, stay safe and well. Regards Derek.
@@FoxesAfloat you are most welcome. I found you guys quite by accident, being an ex Brit I love following your travels, but I do mean it when I say the 360 is superb ! What a lovely feature to add. Stay safe guys !
Thank you so much for 2 amazing Falkirk videos (lol “videos” corrected to “oreos”!! Was so tempted to leave that bizarre autocorrect!) You guys have knocked it out of the park as usual! 🙏
Thank you guys for making me smile on a very sad day today my family lost our step mum lynn at 14:46 so watching this has made things better thanks again guys xx
"Oh behave.... psychadelic baby" - lol . Great video guys, even the aquaduct leading up to the wheel looked like some sort of star gate entrance (was expecting you to be propelled at light speed to another solar system or something) ;)
Absolutely fantastic stuff. I love the psychedelic tunnel. Great to get a proper view on the wheel, rather than cycling by it from below. I’m enjoying seeing you get closer to Glasgow and places I know. Thanks for the awesome videos, slowly catching up on several years worth.
I live near The Wheel and have regularly taken visiting friends for a sail on The Wheel. It always impresses and is well worth a visit. Nearby are the huge Kelpies. Horse head statues at the end of the canal as it opens into the River Carron and the Forth.
Loved the vlog guys. The tourist board must love you! It makes ME want to go back, so it's bound to prick the interest of anybody who watches your vlog. Thanks!
What a awesome piece of engineering that structure is...................well explained and learnt loads of things about the Falkirk Wheel...........definitely on bucket list to go and see......stay safe.........thanks for sharing
Well done ! John from Michigan , United States. Never knew this existed. From a Scot in Michigan thanks for doing the video. Love to ride the wheel one day. Peace
Part of me is totally fascinated by the wheel. Part of me things it would be a total blast to take a boat up or down it. And part of me really hates high places and being 100 feet up looking down isn't a good idea. Still, I get to experience it with you two, at ground level, so it's all good
Well worth the wait! (We watched it in action in 2019 and want to revisit to do the tourist boat.) Husband is an architect and loved your video--will now head over to watch it in 360. As always, your research and narrative were top-notch, Colin.
That was amazing, for a long time visiting the Falkirk wheel has been on my bucket list, maybe one day I'll make it there but it's a bit of a drive from Kent!
Bravo lads! Absolutely fascinating. Your videography has always been great but adding the drone footage took it to another level. Now you've done it again by adding the 360° views. What a "trip" thru the tunnel! I know this video will be hard to top but I enjoy them all. See you next Friday at lunch. Have a great week 😊
That the trip up or down only takes about 4 min. is amazing. And having spend most of my teen years in the '70s, I enjoyed that trip through the tunnel. LOL
One happy Scottish South African... you have been to the land of the Kilt... and navigated the amazing Falkirk Wheel... great show! Narrow-boating in the UK tops my bucket list and I feel well equipped to do so, thanks to your incredibly informative vlogs 👍 Cheers from "down South"
I loved this when I watched it 2 years ago. I am doing a British Isles Cruise in June and have booked an excursion to see this marvel. We even get to take a tour boat up ! Very excited, and I thank you for the brilliant video.
very educational!! I remember seeing the Falkirk wheel on the Narrowboat series Great Canal Journeys with Timothy and Prunella which was a cute show, but they didn't explain in such detail how it all worked. Great video!
All I can say is that the trip through the tunnel was really trippy😜. Your videos are always top notch! Looking forward to seeing what your new boat looks like. Mike from Montreal
Your filming is getting more and more amazing with every video, guys - this was an especially fun episode for my hubby and me. We went to Scotland on our honeymoon and while there, rode the excursion boat on the Wheel. It truly is incredible, as are the nearby Kelpies! Hope you got to see them while you were there. They're downright awe-inspiring.
WOW WOW WOW LOVE the cycadlike tunnel and the wheel is the most AMAZING thing I have ever seen. This vlog has Exceeded my expectations. THANK YOU for sharing,
I love the falkirk wheel I have been many times. Fantastic filming and commentary. Really enjoy following your journey. Big fan, look forward to your next upload..
I recall I saw the Falkirk Wheel on another show a few years ago - perhaps it was Coast. Your explanations are so clear. This was another fascinating video from you guys. I'm hooked on all your videos. Who needs Britbox anyway!! ha ha
Great vlog guys. Really interesting, amazing piece of machinery. You explain it so well and make it very interesting. You guys are looking so well. Again, thank you for that😘
What a detailed and loving look at the Falkirk Wheel. Great video to showcase what is an absolute icon - well done Boys. And, I think the "Fisheye" lens was invented for you, Colin, just to play with in the Roughcastle tunnel. Took me back to the 60's and those funny cigarettes - LOL - love it.
Love this video! Thanks so much for taking the time to make it. I didn’t know this existed until I saw it in a Facebook reel and your video was the first to pop up when I started looking into it. Wonderful explanation!
Fantastic! All tunnels should have that Psychedelic lighting ... and it leads to the Falkirk wheel! You have outsmarted the other bloggers with your 360 degree channel! Love it! Blessings, and enjoy 2022!
The tunnel used to be very dark and a bit scary ,as there were no lights and no railings on the tow path , until the Millennium Project renovated the canals. My mother tells me that in the 1930s her brother and his pals would go there with ukuleles and have a jam session as the acoustics were so good.
Watching this from the control room at the wheel, great content as always 👍
Legend! Thanks so much! I hope we caught your best side 😂😉
Absolutely fantastic. Now, headed to the 360 vlog.
Awesome! Thank you!
Me too

It’s an awesome piece of machinery 👍
Great video, guys.
I never get tired of watching that thing work.
It's an amazing structure!
Love your videos, but this is the best explanation of the Wheel and the best views of it that I have ever seen. Keep up the great work.
Wow, thanks!
You are both lovely and adorable.I watch your videos over and over again.Shaun’s hearty laughter is extremely contagious
You are so kind
Love the lighted tunnel and your “twist” on that.
Brilliant video. One of the best I've seen on the Falkirk Wheel. Its an incredible piece of engineering. Thanks Colin for the informative commentary. The drone shots really add to this video, putting the wheel in context.
Happy New Year....

It was bloody cold up there! 🥶
The cinematography in this video is top-notch. Beautiful work!
Awesome! Definitely up to expectations. The Wheel is incredible. Love the tunnel as well. Finally, a tunnel that might not terrify me.
Can't wait!
How am I just learning this thing exists now? It's amazing! I want to go see it in person some day.
It's an awesome piece of machinery x
I wonder how the Suez Canal linked the Mediterranean Sea to the Red Sea and no locks 120 miles long and NO LOCKS. Think about that
The cinematography on this video is epic. Love you guys! 💖
Thank you!
wow amazing how it works and free to use and energy reduced, plus the views and a lovely day, great vlog xxx
Its ace!
That was the best vlog I have ever seen of the Falkirk Wheel. Your commentary was superb. Loved it. Take care guy's, stay safe and well. Regards Derek.
Thanks, you too!
That 360 Degree video is superb !
Thanks, Stuart!
@@FoxesAfloat you are most welcome. I found you guys quite by accident, being an ex Brit I love following your travels, but I do mean it when I say the 360 is superb ! What a lovely feature to add. Stay safe guys !
Wow, the Falkirk wheel is amazing. Thank you for explaining
Our pleasure!
Thank you so much for 2 amazing Falkirk videos (lol “videos” corrected to “oreos”!! Was so tempted to leave that bizarre autocorrect!) You guys have knocked it out of the park as usual! 🙏
Mmmm.... Oreos 😋
@@FoxesAfloat Oreos are only knock-off Hydroxes.
A most excellent piece of engineering. And (bonus!) a trippy tunnel.
Trippy tunnels are cool 😵💫
The tunnel was trippy but I wouldn't like being in it that long. The Falkirk wheel is quite a feat of engineering!!
Thank you guys for making me smile on a very sad day today my family lost our step mum lynn at 14:46 so watching this has made things better thanks again guys xx
I'm so sorry to hear that, Anthony. Sending love and our thoughts 💙
"Oh behave.... psychadelic baby" - lol . Great video guys, even the aquaduct leading up to the wheel looked like some sort of star gate entrance (was expecting you to be propelled at light speed to another solar system or something) ;)
If the tunnel was long enough I would have tried 😂😵💫
Beautiful senaryscenery
Great vlog! Somehow, you manage to make things entertaining and informative at the same time!
Wow, thank you!
Absolutely fantastic stuff. I love the psychedelic tunnel.
Great to get a proper view on the wheel, rather than cycling by it from below.
I’m enjoying seeing you get closer to Glasgow and places I know.
Thanks for the awesome videos, slowly catching up on several years worth.
Glad you enjoyed it
What an amazing feat of engineering. The Wheel should be added to one of the Seven Wonders of the World. Thank you so much for filming this episode.
I think it's one of the seven wonders of the waterways.
I live near The Wheel and have regularly taken visiting friends for a sail on The Wheel. It always impresses and is well worth a visit. Nearby are the huge Kelpies. Horse head statues at the end of the canal as it opens into the River Carron and the Forth.
One of your very best. Exceptionally well produced. Thank you.
Thanks David!
You have an amazing knack of explaining the engineering in words and images. Best description of the Falkirk Wheel I’ve seen.
Loved the vlog guys. The tourist board must love you! It makes ME want to go back, so it's bound to prick the interest of anybody who watches your vlog. Thanks!
Haha! I hope so but they've never been in touch 😕
What an absolutely fantastic vlog guys, this was so interesting to watch. X
Thanks so much! 😊
Not the first video I've seen about the Falkirk Wheel, though definitely the best by a far margin - very well done, lads! Another triumph.
Glad you enjoyed it! 👍🏻🏴💙
What a awesome piece of engineering that structure is...................well explained and learnt loads of things about the Falkirk Wheel...........definitely on bucket list to go and see......stay safe.........thanks for sharing
Our pleasure!
One of my favourite modern engineering projects in Scotland!
The views are amazing, aren't they?
Definitely!
Thank you so much for making such a good video of the Falkirk Wheel and the canals around Falkirk.
Well done ! John from Michigan , United States. Never knew this existed. From a Scot in Michigan thanks for doing the video. Love to ride the wheel one day. Peace
Learn Falkirk Wheel from my IELTS exercise. The word description is really abstract, thanks to your video I quite understand how it works now! 💯
British engineering at its best. Really amazing. Thank you, guys, for the video !!
Glad you enjoyed it! 👍🏻🏴💙
OMG I need to do this - just added to my bucket list
👍🏻
Had to show my 13 yo daughter this video. Amazing stuff! The tunnel lighting of course grabbed her attention! Good stuff!
Awesome! Thank you!

I love they way you explain things - especially this one. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it! 👍🏻🏴💙
Cracking video, loved the camerawork through the tunnel
Nice one. Thank you!
Thank you, and your sponsors, for this one.
I am amazed that it is only a 4-minute rotation for the Falkirk Wheel. That is some engineering.
It really is amazing !
Your explanations are loud and clear. I hope one day I can hop into the boat and visit it.
That the trip up or down only takes about 4 min. is amazing. And having spend most of my teen years in the '70s, I enjoyed that trip through the tunnel. LOL
👍🏻👍🏻
Awesome bit of engineering! Appreciate the facts and figures along with the trip. The tunnel was awesome too.

Many thanks!
Fascinating guys, and brilliant photography.
Glad you enjoyed it, James 👍🏻🏴💙
Great! Thanks so much. Brilliant to see this amazing feat of engineering. Also loved the “disco” tunnel.
So cool in there!
I loved this when I watched it 2 years ago. I am doing a British Isles Cruise in June and have booked an excursion to see this marvel. We even get to take a tour boat up ! Very excited, and I thank you for the brilliant video.

Your filming is getting more and more amazing with every video, guys - this was an especially fun episode for my hubby and me. We went to Scotland on our honeymoon and while there, rode the excursion boat on the Wheel. It truly is incredible, as are the nearby Kelpies! Hope you got to see them while you were there. They're downright awe-inspiring.
We did 🙂
I hope to experience the Falkirk Wheel one day. Incredible engineering.
It's a wonder to see and ride.

Aww, thanks David 👍🏻
Fantastic!!! Groovy tunnel and like a Ferris Wheel!! Brilliant!!!🎉 😍
Glad you enjoyed it! 👍🏻🏴💙
It reminds me of that machine Jodie Foster steps into in Contact. Lucky you didn't end up at Vega 26 light years away ;-)
😂👍🏻
What a detailed and loving look at the Falkirk Wheel. Great video to showcase what is an absolute icon - well done Boys. And, I think the "Fisheye" lens was invented for you, Colin, just to play with in the Roughcastle tunnel. Took me back to the 60's and those funny cigarettes - LOL - love it.
Glad you enjoyed it, Alan. 👍🏻🏴💙

You are so welcome!
Awesome vlog guys. Very impressive and Big pat on the back to the engineers who designed this amazing solution !!
We agree!
Thanks for sharing all the info regarding the union canal 😊 looks seriously cold
It was!
That is so cool!
Not only the video, but your engineering description of how it works!
Cheers Daryl!
Did you manage to get to see the Kelpies?

Find out soon! 👍🏻
Fantastic! All tunnels should have that Psychedelic lighting ... and it leads to the Falkirk wheel! You have outsmarted the other bloggers with your 360 degree channel! Love it! Blessings, and enjoy 2022!
The tunnel used to be very dark and a bit scary ,as there were no lights and no railings on the tow path , until the Millennium Project renovated the canals. My mother tells me that in the 1930s her brother and his pals would go there with ukuleles and have a jam session as the acoustics were so good.
Hi Alana, Such great memories for your Mom. Blessings
Are you mixing this one up with Falkirk Tunnel? This tunnel wasn't built until 2002.
