#FrenchTastic #Reaction #CheeseChasing
i feel sorry for the beautiful cheese. pray no cheese get hurt.
Looks like that would be some muddy cheese by the time it stopped rolling.
In Spain they have the La Tomatina Festival where they throw tomatos at each other, well this is a good thing. If The Brits toss cheese in there and the French toss their delicious bread in there, maybe the Germans can toss Wurst and then bake it all to make Pizzas. The Americans can deliver them during halftime of the Super bowl. Everyone wins.
@@michaelcrummy8397 it's wrapped up all nice and cozy by traditional aspects
But they are not allowed the roll real cheese anymore the rubber foam cheese get swapped for a wheel of cheese with the first one down
Can hit 75mph
@@Realgrande I seen one county in mid England dose this with potatoes
For the love of life I can't figure out why
But I want to roll
NO CHEESE
Was hurt in the making of this tradition
Yes, they’re crazy. Some of us Brits are just insane. This is a very unexpected reaction video, Marie! I laughed when I saw the title. I’ve never been to see it in real life. I hope you had a wonderful birthday!
What's insane is that the cheese hit 75mph
"Are they crazy?"
"No, they are just Briitsh."
"O, that makes sense."
I guess that is safer than running with the bulls in Spain lol.
😂😂At near both 4:00 and 6:45. FrenchTastic girl Marie becomes an outspoken advocate activist for the benefit of every precious cheese!
I LOVE it! You always surprise and entertain, Marie!
Big 👍 😂😄🙂
✌😷
What a friend we have in cheeses.
Love the story of the woman that won the cheese even though she finished the race unconcious. She only found out later that she won in the medical tent after waking up.
This is awesome! Bring it to the States! Just make sure everyone signs a waiver, we are quite the litigious country. Marie is more worried about cheese abuse! Lol
Yep, 969. It should be made a legal bye law, everywhere in the whole world, forthwith.
It's one of our silly old traditions brits do anything for a laugh
I lived in Brockworth in Gloucester for 10 years and could see the hill out of my window. I went to it a few times.
A friend of mine used to have a house at the bottom and they used to crash into his fence if they didn't stop in time or get caught by someone.
There's a pub nearby called The Cheese Rollers 😋
I find it crazy how our local tradition/competition, which I've always taken 'as is' and not really thought much about, is known around the world and people find it so shocking/amusing 😂
In the UK if you see a strange tradition and ask "why?" there's a good chance that the answer is simply "Why not?"
It's the nettles that get you....the cider creates a force field for the rest 😁
I’m from Birmingham Uk and Gloucestershire isn’t too far away. I have a friend that tried Coopers Hill in 2015 and he broke a leg!!! Mad english 😀😀
One day this will be an Olympic event.
I thought I saw Raygun busting some moves halfway down!
Happy birthday Marie! Hope it's a great one. Loved your reaction! "Just come to France and eat some cheese." 😆
Hello. Miss Marie !!!! Hail to the cheese yet After My Day I am Going to Fall down now !!! 😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄
Here in Holland and over there in France, we can just go to the store to get some cheese. Safely.
That's no fun 😂😂😂
Their parents must be very proud! 😂 Some crazy participants! I hope they heal quickly - god bless them. :0) 🐺
Dear lady, we do it for three reasons, if you win you get the cheese, even if you do not win you get the glory of taking part in an ancient tradition and finally, and most importantly, we do it because we are English and insane by birth.
In the words of Asterix and Obelix "Ces anglais sont foux!" Et c'est vrai!
They just love cheese! There's also a bug swimming competition.
It's one of those activities, that someone started and it just grew and it became interwoven into the psyche of the people, there is no reason for it other than the joy of throwing yourself down a steep hill in pursuit of a cheese - pour l'amour de la vie
Great reaction Marie but at the risk of sounding cheesy, that's a pretty sharp hill they roll down 😊 Great video as usual and I hope you had a wonderful Birthday 🎂 🥳 🎉 and ate lots of great food. Best wishes 🥰 take care and be safe 🙏
You've gouda grate deal of nerve coming up with puns like that.
Cheese it, the cops!
Happy Birthday, dearest Marie!!!!!!
I thought the cheese heads in Wisconsin were crazy with their zeal for the Green Bay Packers, but this is absolutely bonkers!!! Still it’s hilarious to watch. This may be what the soccer fans do in the off season!!!😂😂😂. After all these years of doing this,I imagine one could construct a pretty complete human skeleton from all the broken bones.😂😂😂.I hope no one has ever died from this,.after all that , the cheese had better be the best tasting in the world!!!😂😂😂. Your usual great job Marie . Looking forward to your next.😎👍👍👍
So marie, what you do this weekend....
Well I chased a roll of cheese 🧀 down a steep hill..🤣🤣🤣
Human's aren't the smartest on earth as we clearly see🤣🤣
Happy birthday marie
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I like cheese, but not that much lol. Btw Happy Birthday... 🎂🎂🎂 Mine was yesterday...
OMG this is so dangerous, Are they crazy? oh OK they are competing for cheese................... LOL I guess that makes it OK then LOL Loved the reaction.
Happy 23rd Birthday Mademoiselle Marie! I saw something similar years ago on The Amazing Race. Seems like it was in some Scandavian country that time though, and not England. It looks ridiculous, hilarious, painful, and fun. Edited to add: Amazing Race Season 14 in 2009, the cheese wheels each weighed around 50 lbs (22.7kg) and it does appear to have been in Switzerland. Bonne Anniversaire! ~Be Blessed
One of the things French people and British people agree on is: Cheese is fucking amazing, and do not waste it!!
That’s funnier then hell. 😂😂 Crazy people. 🤪 I have seen this before. How much cheese do you win for all that pain.
Did it once not too long after moving to the SW of England.
About 20 years ago. Thought I was going to die lol.
Wont do it again at my age now - will die internally of my daughter tries it - but have no regrets.
Happy birthday young lady. Some if the people saying this is crazy and dangerous probably skydive and think it's fun. It's a matter of perspective. I was fishing in a fliat tube by our airport and a skydiver came down to talk. He asked mw if that tube was for keeping me from falling down in the water. His faced turned very pale when I told him that it does help especially in 20-30 feet of water. He said I was crazy for going out over my head. He showed me the water wings he had attached in case he landed in the lake. I pointed out that if my tube gets a keak I can swim to shore but if his parachute fails, he can't fky. Our perspective of what's crazy are just different.
The first written evidence of cheese rolling is found from a message written to the Gloucester town crier in 1826; even then it was apparent the event was an old tradition, and is believed to be at least six hundred years old. (from wikipedia)
Two possible origins have been proposed for the ceremony. The first is said that it evolved from a requirement for maintaining grazing rights on the common. The second is pagan origins for the custom of rolling objects down the hill. It is thought that bundles of burning brushwood were rolled down the hill to represent the birth of the New Year after winter. Connected with this belief is the traditional scattering of buns, biscuits and sweets at the top of the hill by the Master of Ceremonies. This is said to be a fertility rite to encourage the fruits of harvest.
Being the home of some silly games like this, I think the object isn't to catch the cheese. It is to chase the cheese & be the first human at the bottom. Maybe someone familiar with this will know for sure. Something like this (but even more silly) is Barbie Jeep Racing in the US.
In england we need to chase good cheese, its not like france where its just comes to you. If you ever see any wild cheese its fair game here.
I guess that it has been going on for so long that it has become a tradition. Each country has its own traditions, where I come from its an annual "Rattle Snake" hunt ......🙂
Yes the English are crazy and we love it. Check out Atherstone Ball game, also in England. The only rule is to not kill anyone, brawls and blood is fine
There's a part of British society that loves to be eccentric. This part. It's like a Monty Python skit.
If there’s one thing that cheeses me off, it’s wasted cheese.
Hard to believe it is real. It looks like something from Monty Python.
Funny and crazy ...tradition is tradition
Oh, the power of fast rolling cheese. I shudder at the thought.
they have a bottle of wine, but forgot to pickup some cheese...so of course, what else would you do when you absolutely need wine & cheese!
The climbing up is the CHILDRENS race
My father many years ago told me We have saved the French in two world wars and they have never forgiven us.
Nobody here outside of the South West of England understands it either. They are pretty much rural farm folk with strange voices & customs. I am in the South East, my uncle speaks with their accent & I have never been able to understand 90% of what he says.
Just so you know currently the cheese wheel is not real cheese anymore the police department in Gloucestershire visited the manufacturer and told them they can’t supply cheese for the cheese rolling events anymore due to health and safety concerns so the cheese roll was replaced by a rubber cheese wheel which the winner swops for the real cheese later on
Quand je vivais à Angers, j’assistais les dimanches à la Messe à la paroisse nommé “St. Martin des Champs”. Je suppose que c’est le même St. Martin qui a été l’Eveque de Tours au quatrième siècle à cause de la proximité d’Angers à Tours, mais je ne suis pas certain de cela.
It's a beautiful cheese actually, well worth chasing😂
Eso es de locos Marie, mejor voy a la tienda😄😄
Oh yes, we know how to have a good time!
The racers going uphill are the under 16's, though some are A LOT younger. But then in France, you have motorcycles charging uphill climbs, {the arretes?}.
I'd go for it if I lived in a place where the costs of potential injury were covered. In my good 'ol American home, though? No way 😅
“It's wrong somehow.” Yes, it is. Your cheesy senses are keen. Never play with the cheese!
Yes... it does appear that they ARE crazy!
Cheese! Ranks right up there with bacon! Love me some bacon and love me some cheese. I've got an idea for a video for you to react to. It's called "Big Nasty Hill Climb." It's held in New Plymouth, Idaho. It;s climbing with motorcycles. You won't be disappointed! Hugs from Idaho...
I could watch this all day. Better than bull riding!
The French may enquire 'Pourquois?'
The English will respond: 'Pourquois pas?'
See its not just the French who are food fanatics
Here you need Michelin tyres more than stars.
This is why we haven't been invaded for 1000 years lol.
It's not really about the cheese, it's the competition, the history, the event... Like the Atherston Ball Game.
Joyeux anniversaire! Yes, people are crazy, but it does look like fun in a strange way. Très bizarre.
I agree it's a total waste of my favourite in life, CHEESE.
"How can anyone govern a country that has 246 types of cheese?' ...Charles de Gaulle
We love our Chizz.
This is crazy. For once it's not us Americans doing the crazy activity. But America still has bull ridding, demolition derbies and professional wrestling. I hope no one got hurt. But does look fun to watch. Happy Birthday. BTW: How soon is your Holiday request list coming out?
Marie loads of sports are dangerous (Rugby, Cricket, Football, Motor Racing, Horse Racing). I'm sure there must be French sports where you can be hurt (Snail Hunting maybe or the Tour de France or......well that's all I've got on French sports I'm afraid 🙄). If you think this is wild might I suggest you check out the Isle of Man TT Races. The guys who race there really are crazy.
Looking great in the WVU gear, have ever made a reaction video, on the song, "Country Roads", by John Denver
I must correct you about something. At the end you mentioned your other channel and said you put some good stuff on there. That is not correct. You put some GREAT stuff on there! 😁
🥰🥰
Look up the "Atherstone ball game", madame. It's just as nuts !
Japanese log riding festival next? ;-)
Oh 😲😲😲😲
The people in Wisconsin are really upset about this eh? The Wisconsin state motto is Eat Cheese or Die.
Its not as mad as seeing a snail and thinking mmmmm that looks tasty. and dont even start on frogs legs. It goes back so far in time, a time when 8lbs of cheese cost an arm and a leg.,
Coming from Quebec makes me sad to see this cheese wasted. Could make alot of poutine with that. Lol
Mate how is the cheese wasted, it can still be eaten after you've hunted it down 😜
Whoever makes it to the bottom first winds the cheese, so nothing's wasted 😛
That was funny and dangerous but the downhill portion of those videos were speeded up to make it look funnier. Stay well and be safe.
Lets Go Mountaineers!!
Welcome to the crazy world of 2021, people will do anything, and this is only of those things.
Marie, At least I'm not the only one who is confused.
What you do not see is there is a giant fondue pot at the bottom of the hill, if that would have been in USA then they would be tossing canned cheese at Natchos and Jalapenos. Happy birthday Miss Marie, you don't look 23, you could easily pass for 21, how do you do it? :) :) :) :)
It’s Gloucestershire Cheese they are chasing.
There's no explanation it started years ago and just carried on
Basically if you catch it you keep it
You can't catch the cheese it travels at 70 mph. Competitors only reach a maximum speed of 35 mph😂
Hahaha...they need more people to go at once. lol Actually it is the people chasing the cheese who are confused, not you Marie.
Tbh we played rougher games than this as kids 🤷♀️ if brits get hurt we just kind of get on with it. I don't like cheese myself so I wouldn't run down the hill except of it was for fun with the family
Bonjour, British eccentricity at it's weirdest , I've never witnessed it myself,it seems there's a thin line between courage & stupidity , surely nobody' s gonna eat that cheese are they 🤭 Britain has its fair share of such traditions, snokering in the mud ,they probably go back centuries when people had to think up ways to entertain themselves, but Gloucestershire does have beautiful countryside & villages, you might also be interested in warrior Princess jousting challenges , they also take place on rivers in France.
Thanks again until next time 🧀 💜 🇬🇧
It has been won by many nationalities but never a French person. We are un-surprised.
Please React to Japanese Log Riding. Thanks for the video, cheese chasers are crazy.
Why do they do it? Well I did it just for the bragging rights.
The slope is about 45°. The camera doesn't really show this.
I am with you Marie, it is pointlessly crazy but so are many other things that humans do. I would rather spend an afternoon eating Roquefort, Comte, Cantal and Saint Maure accompanied with a bottle of rose and some charcuterie.
Each to their own, mush. I do'nt judge.
The people catching the 'cheese runners', at the bottom of the hill are probably at more risk, of injury then those bouncing and running down the hill...
The French will never understand us! 😉🖤
I know it's cheesy, but did you say that this is HILL-larious?
It's an English thing, Marie. You wouldn't understand as you're normal!😁😀
It makes me feel so proud!
Reminds me of Barbie Jeep racing.
We do have some crazy things here in the States, but obviously, we have no monopoly on loco.
If you liked this, maybe you should have a look at Lawn Mower Racing 😄
PS:
That 'Police Inspector' was talking UTTER bollocks. But - like most 'policemen' - he has a VERY limited understanding of English Common Law ! People like that should stick to traffic-control, and dealing with drunks.
Maria this puts the great in great Britain
