Someone from Edinburgh here, let me tell you, the reason you didn’t find many locals is because no self respecting person would be on the royal mile during fringe unless they absolutely had to
It was a bit different when we used to get discounts by having an edi post code but then they got rid of that which sucks. So there’s basically no reason to go anywhere near the centre during the fringe anymore
Max clearly doesn’t know the unwritten rule that is anyone from Edinburgh or the Edinburgh area locks themselves in their houses and hides for the entire festival period.
Okay, I might be over a year late to comment here, but can I just point out that “Zeroko’s Teatime” (3:21) is a fantastic show. They performed after the show I was in, and they are great. A mute comedy is hard to do well and they do it flawlessly. They had went for a few years before 2020.
Guy at the end sums it up lol, i do enjoy going back up home for the fringe but when i lived in edinburgh i was just like, get out of my way im trying to speedwalk to Greggs
I performed in the Edinburgh fringe this year with my theatre group! So annoyed that I missed you! Also I tried a deep fried mars bar and threw up 7 times the next day, so..... 😂❤️
You should check out Ross Smith who had his show Crying Shame this year. He managed to get into Dave's Top Ten Funniest Jokes of the Fringe list twice! Definitely the best act I saw at the Fringe this year!
That quip at 3:36 was likely completely coincidental and not a nod to Capaldi in 'The Thick of It', but since he's a Weegie and not a Teuchtar you should probably visit Glasgow anyway... And also because Edinburgh is known for being the worst half of the East/West rivalry. See you on Buchanan Street!
So.... you only spoke to flyerers and weirdos on the Royal Mile? Well done for tapping into the worst and laziest 5% of the entire festival. If you'd walked down any one of those side streets you could speak to a talented comedian or performer who could actually talk about their show and who isn't mindlessly targeting the mass market. Blair Street and Cowgate are literally 10 seconds away try there next time. Sorry to put the boot in, but dunno what we were supposed to learn from this.
I need to find this person who did a street show at the fringe in 2018. He's Canadian and he does really cool stuff like ride a tall unicycle thing. If anyone knows about this person please reply to this comment. Thank you.
Yeah, it's rare to find a local on the royal mile during the Fringe in the middle of the work week. They're usually at work, cursing the Tourist traffic on the way in and out from work. Pre pandemic ofcourse :(
The look of shock when he realised he’d actually managed to find a local was amazing.
Honestly he looks like a surprisingly more crackhead version of Macaulay culken, with tits...
You can spot the local by how he moved. Pissed off and annoyed walking with purpose. That's a Scottish local alright 🤣
Absolutely
Edinburgh is England.
@@TheMiniMaestroMan it's literally the capital of Scotland
Make longer content. I want u to have money
Would’ve been longer if he could only think of a joke at the start.
@@feelgood2994 😂😂 may be ..
Agreed
hes posh... he has money
Brill Smith life doesn’t work like that lol
this dude looks like renowned supermodel maximus bucharest from bucharest
It's uncanny. But we all know the supermodel genius would be too busy to be doing interviews in the street, in Edinburgh of all places.
I thought he looked familiar!
Proud to be featured in this video @ 3.11, literally fangirled when we saw max fosh 😂 hence the lack of stringing a sentence together
but your not
@@evanhutcheson1409 I am, I'm on the left👍🏼
I literally remember walking past you guys at the festival last year 😂
@@tromboney hahaha really?? Amazing!! 😂 sad that the festival is cancelled this year but tis for the best isn't it
"Edinburgh is famous for being in Scotland"
Max Fosh 2019😂
I was highly disappointed that this wasn’t a bunch of people being judged on who’s fringe is the best.
Want to be a writer on the channel?
Max Fosh love to 😉

@@nickelcobalt98 they're doing that at the Christmas Market this year
The last time I was this early this channel was still called „streetsmarts“
Just as I was getting really into the video, IT ENDED 😂😂
"Are you from Edinburgh?"
"ummm yeah.."
"Finally found someone from here..."
ENDS VIDEO 😆
I love that you consistently put out well made videos. It's very clear that you are really working hard. Keep up the amazing work!
still waiting for the Harry Potter episode of street smart...
0:05 I am way too familiar with this feeling then I would like.
Edinburgh, the only Scottish city where you are find yourself being honestly surprised when you hear a Scottish accent.
Sorry that is not truth.
I mean, in this video it’s because performers come from all over the world to have a show at the fringe.
No it’s not haha
@@Astalonte2 bet you're english
It's same for London lol. You are more likely to find people with South Asian accents than English
I am actually upset cause you were in Edinburgh and I didn’t catch you
Max clearly doesn’t know the unwritten rule that is anyone from Edinburgh or the Edinburgh area locks themselves in their houses and hides for the entire festival period.
Your videos make studying for a masters over the whole summer bearable
No one seems to be able to answer a yes/no question correctly on the first attempt
If you’re from Edinburgh it’s just an unsaid rule to never travel into the fringe or festival - unless you have FREE tickets we are very thrifty
Okay, I might be over a year late to comment here, but can I just point out that “Zeroko’s Teatime” (3:21) is a fantastic show. They performed after the show I was in, and they are great. A mute comedy is hard to do well and they do it flawlessly. They had went for a few years before 2020.
are you telling me i missed the chance to meet mr maxillian. i literally live there
That sums up Edinburgh really. “Are you from Edinburgh?” - “no”
Oh god, I miss Edinburgh. Such a beautiful city.
I’m just trying to make my mother proud
'my mate dave died'
'he got his bum out'
that got violent fast
Guy at the end sums it up lol, i do enjoy going back up home for the fringe but when i lived in edinburgh i was just like, get out of my way im trying to speedwalk to Greggs
Why is this literally the whole fringe in 4 minutes
I’m glad at least one guy was actually from Edinburgh
damn bro you really missed the chance to make a "the revolution will not be televised - the revolution will be live" joke but i love you nonetheless
"Are any of you from Edinburgh?"
"YES!"
"Are you from Edinburgh?"
"NO!"
Didn’t skip the ad for you! Love doing charity work.
well, today i’ve learnt what flyering is. i’ll cherish this information forever. jks, love this!
The girl at 2:29 is honestly a mood.
wtf.. that umbrella shit was incredible
Max is deffinatly my favourite millennial snowflake 💪👌
okay but how did that guy do the umbrella trick 3:20 ???
All he had to do was walk maybe 2000 yards and he would of found all the locals, poor max.
Oml I love fried Mars bars
Love the background music!!
It’s so sad to see how dead is whole town look now without fringe. 😢
As ever, hit like before watching.
YOU HAVE THAT MUCH TRUST FROM US ALL MAX.
I performed in the Edinburgh fringe this year with my theatre group! So annoyed that I missed you! Also I tried a deep fried mars bar and threw up 7 times the next day, so..... 😂❤️
Is it fun being weak then
She’s not weak, she’s differently disabled.
The Edinburgh Cringe Festival, nice :D
Wait when was the name of this channel changed to max Fosh
Back in April, Welcome to Max Fosh video explains all
Like how I live here and I didn’t even go up 10 mins on a bus to see it I feel so lazy 🤣
As if you didn't interview me when I was flyering?? Rude
I could have been in this and not noticed
As a scot the deep fried mars bar comment has annoyed me literally no one eats them and nobody sells them
As only a partial Scot (Grandfather and family name) who once lived briefly in Edinburgh that comment annoyed me too!
i swear the person from my mate dave died is famous. who is she?!
The guy at the end full gets cut off mid sentence, he was telling Max his life story and Max was like, mmmmm nah
1:23 what an evil woman
I've got that jumper Max!
edinburgh changes so fast when the fringe fest starts. just trying to walk down the mile for lunch break was impossible
You should check out Ross Smith who had his show Crying Shame this year. He managed to get into Dave's Top Ten Funniest Jokes of the Fringe list twice! Definitely the best act I saw at the Fringe this year!
I’ve lived my whole live in Edinburgh and during the fringe that’s the most remarkable thing about me
I WAS THERE and the answer is: Tom rosenthal
I want to go see the Cellist.
I wrote the flyer I WAS DEAD
Mum?
You are extremely underrated Mr Fosh
aw max if only i knew you were here :/, i would have come into town to meet such a legend
im just trYIng tO make mY moThEr pRoUD
how tall is max?
0:01 your off to a flyer
That last guy looked so much like Penn Badgley (Actor from Gossip Girl/You)
Edinburgh is not famous for fried mars bars. They weren't even made there originally.
Okay didn’t ask
2:27 people from Edinburgh during fringe will either be at home getting a well deserved rest or working for lots of money
Omg my uncle was in murder she didn’t write 🥺 just had to show my mam and she’s well happy
That quip at 3:36 was likely completely coincidental and not a nod to Capaldi in 'The Thick of It', but since he's a Weegie and not a Teuchtar you should probably visit Glasgow anyway... And also because Edinburgh is known for being the worst half of the East/West rivalry. See you on Buchanan Street!
"Goes to an international festival, is surprised that people from all over the world are present."
*sigh*
"What time is it?" - 🤣🤣
Literally where are my fellow Scots? Glad the festival is over and all these toffs are back down south.
I love your videos so much. They make me feel happy
it's my dream for streetsmart to happen at my uni before i graduate, please come to uni of southampton lmao
Plan on coming for this Freshers week
Max Fosh dreams really do come true
Max Fosh any deets on the date/location would be lit, just saying👍🏼😅
Tell me you went to one of these shows :'D
Amazing school of rock reference

Amazing! Wish I’d bumped into you there. This is jokes 😂

love the Kassem G reference but sad no one pointed it out
I SAW MY FRIEND FROM UNI THERE
now I know I should've stayed in Edinburgh for the summer to talk to Max Fosh on the Royal Mile.
You won't find many scotts at fringe mate....
i really hope Imy made her mum proud
He's really cute
Of course there's no Scottish people there, Edinburgh is practically England.
just englishmen doing their thing and the only guy from Edinburgh doesnt seem interested at all...is that even travelling for you max?
No way I was there 2 weeks ago!
And this was 3 years ago when there was still talented comedy coming out of Edinburgh.
Ive lived in Edinburgh my whole life and played my first show this year, its fucking hell
lol the only person from Edinburgh looked like he just woke up and was going to get a coffee
Oh I wish I'd known about cello lady when the festival was on... too late now
Omg the two of the kind people pitched to me. It's about a group if friends that fall in love with each other lol
I seen u at the fringe and made a fuss bc I was drunk. Would like to formally apologise if I ruined any shots thank you
i live there !
Omg i cant believe i was in the same place as you but still didnt get to see you damn. Please go to kcl!
"I'm in the thick of it", I was just thinking you remind me of Kassem G a lil bit!
A straight up homage to the great man
@@MaxFosh Tremendous! MaxFosh @ ComicCon 2025?
I AM IN SCOTLAND TOOO PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE SCOTLAND I HAVE HAVE HAVE TO MEET YOU MAN IM NOT KIDDING IM ITALIAN THIS IS MY ONLY CHANCE
