___________________________________________________________________
Tim takes you on a personally conducted tour of more amazing mugs and drinking vessels from his toy collection, and also - at the end - a few unusual jugs as well.
First up is a small shot glass that is made completely from ice! It has a plastic sleeve, which stops your fingers getting frozen when you hold it (and presumably stops it melting too fast!) Of course, the shot glass keeps your drink extremely cold, since it is made from ice. Tim then demonstrates a glass that sits on top of a small model car. Fill it up, and send it across the table to the person that wants it. A drink on wheels. Next is a shiny metal cup that sits on a saucer which has some distorted writing on it. You can kind of see that the word is coffee, but when you place the cup on the saucer and look at the words as they are reflected in the cup, you see the word coffee appearing perfectly. This is an example of circular anamorphism.
The next mug has a roulette wheel incorporated in the base; an unusual drinking game maybe? Then Tim shows a French Christmas mug, called Noel Train, that has a small train built into a tunnel that goes right through the mug! We than move to Germany, and a mug that sits on top of a tube, which lifts it above the table quite a way. We talk about High Tea in England, which involves tea, sandwiches and cakes, and which can be quite elaborate; this mug says Hoch die Tasse on the side, but we think in this case the meaning is more like 'bottoms up'. Then Tim demonstrates a teapot which appears to be sitting on some sort of a base. When you lift the teapot up, the base turns out to be a tea cup, all ready for you to pour a nice cuppa! With the teapot sitting on top, it helps keep the cup warm. I have heard of 'warming the pot' when you make a pot of tea. But here you are warming the cup...
Then we see a glass tankard, a bit like a German beer stein' however this mug has more to it than first appears; It is actually a Klein bottle, or as Tim puts it, a Klein Stein! Then Tim demonstrates a mug that has three partial metal strips that run around the mug. Each metal band has a gap, and by rotating the bands, you reveal what you want to be put inside the mug; so, the top band can be twisted to reveal words like tea, coffee, latte, herb tea, hot chocolate etc; the next band down can be adjusted so that you see words like plain, lemon, cream, etc. so that defines what kind of milk or cream you want in your tea or coffee. And the lowest band can be adjusted to show words like sweetener, sugar, etc. So you can dial up your choice of beverage.
Tim then shows us a ceramic bird that is attached to the top edge of a ceramic cup. The bird is a small whistle, which Tim proves by blowing through it! However, just below the bird, on the inside of the mug, there is a small hole. If you fill the mug with a liquid so that the liquid comes up above the hole, then when you blow the bird whistle, you still get a whistle, but now it is more of a liquid warbling sound. Tim has many bird warblers in his collection, but he is especially fond of items that combine two ideas, a warbling bird whistle and a drinking vessel in this case.
We then see a smallish glass vessel, which has a slightly confusing structure inside. However when Tim pours in a red liquid (is that wine Tim?) we see what looks like a bunch of grapes! This 'grape glass' has a smooth outside, but there is a second, interior wall to the glass, and when you fill it with liquid, the shape of the inner wall of the glass becomes apparent. Cheers!
Tim's next mug looks like a fairly standard white china mug, except that it also has a small lip at one side, so it is a mug and also a jug. Another dual function toy! Then Tim demonstrates a milk jug in the shape of a cow, just to remind you where the milk comes from maybe? And finally, we see a nice glass jug that clearly has an inner wall to it. Although it may not be apparent what it does, as soon as you pour milk into it, you can see that the inner wall is made in the shape of a cow's udder.
To conclude, Tim goes back to his teapot that sits on its own mug, pours out a cup of tea, adds some milk and sips his tea!! - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
Tim could explain literally anything to me and I’d be fascinated.
“And what we find here, if we put the butter in the microwave, turn it on...look at that! It’s melted! Splendid.”
That's pretty good; I actually imagined Tim saying that. 😀
Imagine that, a box that heats up your meal without touching it and it makes the most amazing hum doing so. At the end of the heating a satisfying beep happens. Heh.
@@fireandcopper Comments: RADIATION FROM THE NILE!
Sno Go haha Id watch that
I subscribe to this hypothesis.
I’d like to imagine he didn’t know the camera was there and he was just doing shots and talking about the cups
That's a very disturbing idea but I like it.
😂
What a lovely idea, very intresting indeed!
That’d be hilarious! At the end he’s just like “oh my, how long have you been there?”
@Jasper WILLIAMS imagine jasper, imagine

*Meanwhile I'll be drinking milk from the glass udder in the other corner.*
*sips from the udder glass* geez your wife dont understand you man
He looks like a travelling gnome merchant who's trying to sell you his weird cups that he made.
That’s definitely his DnD character.
Well that's my next cosplay sorted if I can get the accent right
I'll take your entire stock!!!
@@apocrowlypsenox Can you imagine a magic shop owner like him?
"This here is a rather extraordinary device, I have had a few in the past, its a wand of fireball. You just flick it like that and a fireball comes out isn't that nice. And when you're done it can serve as a rather nice pointer when you are teaching a class, remarkable"
I would buy them
I mean, I must have watched hours and hours of Tim over the years and found everything he has talked about absolutely fascinating. But, this video is the first time I have been properly astounded and it was by complete accident. My birthday is 7/7 and my parter of 10 years is 28/10. My favourite colour is red and hers, black. So, I have only ever played Red 7 and Black 28 on the roulette table and Tim done 2 shakes of the roulette glass and gets both. Splendid.
I am more astounded that YOU, with all those numbers and colours in mind, happened to watch this video and noticed the result of Tim's two shakes.
You should have bet
Splendid
thats spooky
@@geyotepilkington2892 It would be if it wasn't Tim.
He’s so intelligent that he said “Drinking Vessels” instead of mugs.
From the species of table faring dishes
Say one more thing about the grand elder and you'll end up in the vortex mug
@Damian S. or overcompensation for idiocy.
He eats his snickers with knife and fork, too. Like an evolved, civilised person does it.
Britishism 101
Tim, you're spoiling us with multiple videos in one day.
th-cam.com/video/ODSbCBxAMgI/w-d-xo.html
Maybe not
Tim’s videos, especially this one in particular, have a kind of ASMR effect on me. I guess that’s why i come back to rewatch this one every so often. I also admire how Tim is able to explain concepts and principles like cylindrical anamorphism in simple terms that anybody can understand.
Imagine your margarita getting served on a Hot Wheels car.
Sounds like Miami to me
Omega Saturn nah man imagine your margarita served in a cow udder jug, even better
It's actually a Matchbox car. (;
Vodka Martini, driven Not stired

If he was in a Video game he seems like a wander trader and he try’s to sell you weird stuff but his presence is so fascinating that you buy it all.
That's why it pays to level up charisma.
that cow is reminding me of the japanese guy who makes knives out of random things
Thought the same thing!
Kiwami Japan. Yes. Love them both~
@Ryan Gifford Sharpest Wholesome TH-camr Knife in the world

Thanks mate, I needed that. Have a great night.
How did you know?

He is that old guy in your village/town that has traveled a lot when he was young and now owns a vast collection of weird things and stories.
I hope to be that kinda guy someday
... He's Bilbo Baggins 😲
Tim: "...holds coffee, or something stronger."
something stronger: **water from the Nile*
"Ope, almost forgot" *nods* "Water of the Nile"
Ah, an old fan
What a nile no hate comment for me
As a newer fan, I've seen references to water from the Nile on nearly every one of these videos. When did it become such a big thing?
@@tgrady2570 th-cam.com/video/KPKzGagdvNc/w-d-xo.html
This is quite possibly the most wholesome channel on youtube
Yeah probably actually
Everybody: Wow! That train gallery mug is really cute!
Me: That would be a hell of cleaning
That's what I thought about the Klein Stein
NinjaLLR yeah the Klein stein would be gnarly to clean
I'd imagine you'd have to clean it immediately once you finish your drink, and then just run some water through it several times... though I'd prefer the difficult to reach places in the cup to be see-through so you know for sure you aren't leaving residue behind haha
Thought the exact same thing
I thought so too, Imagine the time it will take to clean them coz it's non replaceable items
I always chuckle at Klein Stein
because it translates to small stone
and because Kleinstein is the german name for the Pokemon Geodude
Hoch die Tassen Kleinstein 😂
Wait, why are they calling mugs stones?
@@hephsmith3738 actually Steinkrug, which means stone jug
and the stone is an old way of talking about ceramics I guess?
here they're mostly called Bierkrug though
Could listen to this guy all day every day honestly.
What an amasingly wholesome channel this is.
I love the fact that he calls them drinking vessels. It just adds that little bit of novelty to them (idk if novelty is the word but hopefully you understand what I'm trying to say)
Any "kiwami japan" fans who also got some emotion out of the cow jug?
World sharpest mug knife.
Yes! I thought he might mention him or would have gotten the jug from "a friend from japan who's also on TH-cam"
@@baikia777 I think he has done ceramic knife already but, it would be nice to see him grinding a mug up and reforming it into a knife.
@@baikia777 World's sharpest concentrated ASMR knife.
@@MusicFurler but that's from a plate. A mug can be a cookie cutter or something lol
What a charming man. So British yet relaxed. Must be all his toys and things. A conversation with this gentleman would enlightening and calming. 👍🏻
Tim: takes a shot
Me: "Here we go, Tim's getting turnt tonight!"
i, was thinking of the same thing
My initial thoughts when I saw the name of the video and the length was, "How is this going to keep my interested for 12 whole minutes?" and then it ended so very fast and I subscribed. This has to be the most calming channel I've ever come across.
ASMR TIME BABY!!!
No men scare me, except 1
Tim putting mugs at the edge of the table, it makes me have fast heart beats.
Been sick all day and the “high tea” made my day.
Tim speaking German is so adorable!!! Daumen hoch!
th-cam.com/video/ODSbCBxAMgI/w-d-xo.html
Woops
I love the way Tim explains and shows things, it's super wholesome
Tim I hope you know how amazing you are and how blessed we are to have you on TH-cam -thanks Tim &all the Crew for making my day 🥰
I wish more people were as pleasant as this guy. Imagine the world of we all enjoyed little things as simple as a silly looking cup.
I think this video was just a Tim's excuse to drink during work
Yes, but no, but yes
Notice how there are no cuts or edits. And probably no script though I guess. Man's is just enjoying with the toys and speaks his heart out.
That gulp in the beginning from the new tune. Magnificent
Tim by the time he gets to the last one: "THISH ONESH QUITE GOOD, YOU PUT THE DRINK IN IT AND THEN YOU... THEN YOU DRINK IT"
Didn't even take him until the last one to get a bit befuddled. 2:10 "...and when they're finished the drink, they roll it back to you like that, and you drink it."
@@KrikitKaos Poor Tim can't handle his drink.
Same procedure as last year, miss Sophie?
So Tim becomes Hugh Dennis when he’s drunk?
I really like coming here once a week and see those two videos by Tim. So I can understand that he’s ok, like talking to an old friend of mine.
Silence and smile every time you watching Tim videos?
When I have a bad day I always come back for grandpa Tim
I really love your demeanour and voice. You’re a lovely man.
I’m so happy when I watch Tim’s videos.
These should seriously be shown on kid's TV. Genuinely think kids would be fascinated by all his videos.
11:38
takes off glasses
**WOAH**
Nice cuppa tea. *heh*
Cheers! *miniature heh*
*Sluuuuuuuurrrrrp*
Oh very refreshing
"It's a cup so it holds liquid." he explains the obvious but i just love him for some reason
Two in a day again! Thank you tim
Thank you TH-cam recommendations. It’s 3 am and here I am fascinated by this charming man (Tim)and his mug collection. 10/10
Tim literally collects collections
I love this channel so much. It’s very relaxing, healing, calming, entertaining and informative. A heaven sent channel, truly.
I think he is the only one I enjoy watching him talking about mugs for 12 mins.
He has something you can't get easily.
The second glass gives a new meaning to drink driving.
Am I the only one that feel satisfying when watching his videos?
What about that last cup that didn’t get a mention 😢
i wondered that too haha. it has flashing led lights in the bottom that turn on when you pour a liquid in
Ikr
@@davidcoe7095 how did u know that man
He probably has one himself
I got one from a restaurant next to an aquarium of the Pacific
Tim is love, tim is life, tim makes everything ever, impossibly nice
That second glass brings drunk driving to a WHOLE new level.
this is so wholesome. he just has such a delight showing off these trinkets. i love it
WHY DO I KEEP WATCHING THESE VIDEOS AT 3 AM?!
you're afraid to sleep because the clowns will eat you?
@@CaptainWumbo well... Im definitely afraid now...
Because reasons
Because Tim's a part of you now there is no escape
that bird one was brilliant. Love that kind of simple combination of ideas to come up with something complex and brilliant
Funfact: It was actually Jägermeister in his pitcher
You embody many of the things i want to be when I am older, formal appearance with fantastic narration. And endlessly fascinated with obscure things
My boy Tim took that shot of henney like it was nothing 💯💯💯
This man is an absolute joy, and I hope he lives forever.
Thank you Tim! Love you from Korea:)
I absolutely love seeing the parts of Tims collection
The one of the cow was udderly unique.
* sigh *
This mug with tin rings to help indicate your own personal order is actually quite clever! And in our family we have at least two of those pot+mug on the bottom sets :D
I'm binge watching this channel and the only thing that I imagine is what it would be like having this guy as a granddad.
You can go to his house 10000 Times and they’re still be new toys to play with
The most amazing mug belongs to the gentleman displaying these cups.
I thought the first Cup was a broken one and Tim takes a swig from the jagged edges!
I like how he finds everything equally amusing.
"Ein Klein stein"! Lol!
I fall asleep to tims beautiful voice and crisp (yet gentle) microphone slunds
"by the end of the video, Tim had to be carried up to bed" 🥃🍷🍸🍺
"heh"
That glass with the car in the bottom takes drinking and driving to another level
Imagine how mutch better the mad hatter in alice would be if he had these cups
Imagine? We are looking at him
This is a man that never lost his amazement and wonder at life and I cannot express how much I hope be just like him
"Pass me a drink bartender!"
me- **takes out the hotwheels tack**
So pleased to see this channel receiving the views it always ought to have been. Tim needs more recognition for his captivating, kind and accessible style of presentation. Wonderful content.x
When he called them “drinking vessels” I had to keep watching.
Love those ice shot glasses. Summer descends on the valley outside Los Angeles, and those look mighty appealing.
These are quite clever! The bird one can be pretty convincing.
Tim’s vids make me warm and fuzzy on the insides.
the bird whistle is my absolute favorite!
I had one of those! Not in the shape of a mug though. It got incredibly loud. :D
Very unsettling yet wholesome at the same time. A sort of benevolent earth dwelling magical creature.
Is this what Santa does for 364 days of the year?
I'm going back to my second childhood watching the videos tim, amazing.
Dang, we bigfoots don't even have any mugs out here in the wilderness

Bigfeet!

I really love all the gimmicks you present to us and the fact that you are already so long on TH-cam, your channel is one of the most wholesome on the whole platform... i hope you'll be around for a lot longer. Greetings from Germany and stay healthy.
I really like the new intro, but I think that its ending shot could be just slightly longer. Like a half a second, maybe?
Agreed
Nothing brings me more joy than these videos!
Mugs eh? For putting water in it that comes from a particular African river.

told my little sister this was bernie sanders
My favourite channel. Feels nostalgic.

i read your comment just when i was about that part and u saved me
