The British ended slavery thats why you are free to use our inventions❤❤❤❤from England i was still paying for it with my taxes until 2015.
@Bernard-np2fq Facts 🇬🇧👍
Scotland had a small hand in the ‘inventions’ , you’ll find …….if you took the ‘England scales’ off your eyes .
@@georgemorrison9280 I clearly say British The Scots played a major role in building the United Kingdom i have Scots Welsh and Irish relatives you seem to have the problem.
“What did the British ever did for us?” For starters we gave you a language to bastardise.
To be fair, Brits bastardise our own language as good as anyone else.
Yeeeeeessssss 😂
I came to say the very same thing.
I agree 😂 English trashed
Let's face the stark reality: without Britain's influence, much of the world might still be in the Stone Age.
correct
True. Enlightenment Era Britain (mainly from Scotland & London) was the start of the modern world. Without it we'd probably still be tribal barbarians wondering what the heck fire is
@@tommygill-ye3rtMuch of it is. 🇬🇧

The very first computer, invented by a Brit, was Babbage's Differencing Engine. This was designed, and part built, a couple of centuries ago. It is an analog, rather than digital computer. There is a full scale reconstruction of Babbage's original design in the U.K. And it works. It was designed to accurately predict the trajectory and distance of an artillery shell.
A Japanise uni did a paper on UK inventions, they said the UK inventer 40% of all inventions, amazing.
Anyone worked out what % of British inventions were made by Scots? Rather more than the 10% population of the UK figure, I'd guess. Wiki has a very long 'List of Scottish Inventions' if you want to check this.

Tysheen, cats eye reflectors were invented by Yorkshireman Percy Shaw in the 1930's, as a solution to the problem of driving home at night when it was foggy, and he couldn't discern the confines and direction changes of the road properly. Put simply they are a pair of reflective lenses set into a squashy rubber housing so that they can be depressed by a vehicle's wheel running over them and spring back into shape. They are laid into, and flush with, the road surface at intervals along the centre of the road. They are so called because when they are illuminated by a vehicle's headlights they shine back much like a cat's eyes do when a light shines on them in the dark.
They say that he invented the pencil sharpener when the cat was facing the other way.
Thanks for putting a little respect on the Uk.🙏🏻🇬🇧 Just for watching this.
A train that runs along a street is commonly known as a tram.
Unless it has more than one coach then it technically becomes a train!
@@khankrum1 we only had trams in the UK.
In the USA they still have street running trains, including large freight trains. In the UK railway tracks are fenced off except for where they cross roads.
@@frederickwelham3829Its like being in a third world country😂
The Brits invented the flushing toilet but the Aussies invented the dual flush toilet; one button for number ones & another for number twos thus greatly saving water.
Britain's first roundabout was built in my town about 120 years ago, it's still in use today. 😎
You missed one, Mercerised cotton the process invented by a relative of mine. Makes cotton stronger, gives it a slight shine and helps fixs the dye. John Mercer 1844. Now used for lots of things
The 'Teasmade machine' was once a common retirement gift by businesses in the UK. Just when you no longer need an alarm clock that makes you a cup of tea to get you up for work, they give you one!😁
Hahaha, that’s so true.🤣
Friction match invented in my local town Stockton England.
Also the first Passenger train.
So very proud of being British. The world has a lot to thank the UK's input for despite the current leftist fashion for demonising it.
The British Empire brought less violence and higher living standards than what happened before. Furthermore it was better to the indigenous people than other colonising powers.
Your right small pox blankets for the American natives . Food famine for the irish. Slaughter of aborigines in OZ . Plenty more atrocities from the empire. Like inventing the concentration camps in the boar war. WW1 and 2 .
The VW beetle was a very popular car. People of my generation also remember the "Herby" films made by Disney
whats that got to do with inventions a kids film
You wouldn't want Disney to reboot Herbie.
Sir Timothy John Berners-Lee.
without this British man and his work, none of us would be here right now.
Cats eyes are usually found in the middle of the road and reflect light at night. Interesting stuff.
Let’s not forget the mass production of coke (fuel not drink) and from that the mass production of iron - from which we made the first iron (not steel) bridge. Then there is the miners safely lamp, the pre paid postage stamp, modern policing, the ATM, the Lithium ion battery, IVF, the first jet airliner, football, rugby, cricket, lawn tennis, golf, badminton and never forgetting the bouncing bomb.
You are 100% correct in saying ALL countries have their good and bad side.
In the C21st, I hoped we could have found a place for a British female scientists. Here are some of my favourites: Lady Ada Lovelace considered to be the first computer programmer, in the C19th. Also Rosalind Franklin, chemist and crystallographer, Jocelyn Bell-Burnell Astrophysics/pulsars and Dame Maggie Aderin-Pocock Space scientist first black woman to win a physics gold medal.
He did list Franklin if you'd paid attention to the pictures.
Franklin provided the experimental evidence (X-ray crystallography of DNA samples) for Watson and Crick to deduce the structure of DNA
I'm a brit, all this has nothing to do with me 😂 I'm just an average human. But I do think the world needs to stop hating on us so much (it's sort of fashionable to do so these days) sure my ancestors did some evil stuff, but so did every country tbh, everyone was fighting for supremacy when you study world history. But for all the bad we did, we sure as hell made up for it and then some.
and dont forget we also ended slavery in most of the world 👍
I would have included George Boole. Without Boolean logic there is no electronics or computing.
My parent's had a 'Tea's Made' back in the 70's 😊
Knowing the political history of England, its geographical makeup, its maritime location and its weather you realise it had some pretty unique qualities that encourage development.
You mean Britain
@@belindakennedy5828 no, I mean England
Can I just point out, the Bengal feminine was got under control by the British, weather and war caused it.
The village I was raised in is called Calverton.
A man called William Lee invented the industrial revolution, in a small village the Queen Elizabeth the first got her clothes
You may not believe this Tysheen, but it was actually called the Goblin Teasmaid, but that was in times of less blatant vulgar innuendo. You can still buy vintage ones secondhand for about £60
The British taught you how to speak English... i.e. "What did the Brish ever *DO* for us?" :) I thought it was just a typo until you actually voiced it during the introduction. As a Brit, it never ceases to amaze me how low the educational bar seems to be in the US.
You've never had a "Tea's Ready"? Poor thing... 🙂
Brits discovered what was causing cholera and invented the modern sewage systems.
Joseph Bazalgette was the civil engineer who sorted out the London sewage system in the 1860s and 70s.
John Snow, the physician (and first epidemiologist) who deduced that all the cases in one of the outbreaks were caused by the water supply from one pump (Broad Street in Soho).
That was a great find. And yeah - I agree with your commentary. TY. 🤩
Nice video choice Tysheen! The chap shouldn't have given his nationality away, he didn't use Poms once! 😂😂We have a lot to thank the British for.
And we gave most of it to the world.
Google, separately, inventions by Scottish people, inventions by Welsh people, inventions by Irish people, inventions by English people. Each will be a long eye opening list.
And the man who invented the flushing toilet = mr crapper.
Please look this up
It is important to understanding
Even a man from a small village can make a difference
Newcastletle was always heavy engineering me friends either worked at parsons , armstrong engineering, naval shipyards, he didn't mention on other greatest ideas of lord Armstrong, Hydraulics, how could you lift heavy weights, open tower bridge and close it with little effort, the swing bridge Newcastle still using the original hydraulics from the 1860s, and joseph swan invention of the electric light bulb, mosley street first street to be electric lighting, not forgetting Lucozade invented royal Victoria infirmary Newcastle, kids hate needles so they invented a drink called Lucozade, not forgetting joseph Priestley chemist fizzy pop drink 1780, yes we o them everything, ok the romans invented concrete the sewer system the aqua duct and the longest garden wall in history

A good video to react to, but he missed one of the most important British developments - the modern Sewer. The work of Joseph Bazalgette, this one development has probably saved more lives than any other in the developed world. Effective sewers have largely eliminated Cholera as a disease in built up areas, wheras prior to Bazalgette's work, Cholera was a literal city-killer...
I really enjoyed your commentary. And totally agree that when we get together. And help each other even just a little bit. It's possible to do great things. We need to leave politics out of it. But as long as there are people, there will be politics!
It's great, though, to see all these inventions influenced so greatly by Brits (of whom I am one!) and also in conjunction with people from other nations too. Well, I'm certainly glad your CZcams channel is here because without it. Life definitely would be a lot duller, thank you.❤
I love you're outlook on life ❤ Seeing as I'm one of those "bastard Brits" I'd just like to say You're welcome world 💪😁👌🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
You should love Volkswagen, America was investing in it, America was investing in the German War machine, While Britain was fighting them for Americas freedom, who later was Embarrassed into joining the War by the Japanese, which britian told them would happen.
still investing in america brasil still build them

Britain - really did create the modern world. But part of its success was the welcome given to refugees and immigrants from Europe - Lombard's, Walloons, Flemish, Hognuts who all made major contributions toward the Industrial revolution. The "Empire" was a trading Empire - based on a desire for trade, not conquest. Small island, small population and Empire was only ever possible with the active and willing participation of the locals in the places they went to trade. If "colonisation" was so bad, why are two of greatest cities in world are ex colonies - Hong Kong and Singapore. Being a British colony was usually a much better bet than being Spanish, Portuguese, French, Belgian, German, Italian or Dutch, or Ottoman for that matter - which would have been the other option. And at immense cost in treasure and blood, unilaterally decided to end the slave trade around the entire world.
Like what ?
We can imagine that there was only one political system in the world or there was more input of "ordinary" people in government and not ruled by an elite but that is quite unlikely so we must make the best of what we have. I believe Winston Churchill said that our democracies were the best of the rotten lot which by definition means democracy is no more than O.K. i guess.
Look up 'Cat's eye reflector', a brilliant invention that he mentioned but didn't explain 😮
I mean, it's not like we were unreasonable or anything, we only kept 1/4 of the land surface of planet Earth for ourselves, hehe.
A Japanese company published a study which concluded that 54% of the world’s inventions came from the UK.
To be honest I doubt it was that high, but it’s still going to be a very significant percentage.
IT CERTAINLY WAS, WHAT I CAN TELL YOU, IT WASN'T THE AMERICANS.
Well your first settlers came from Britain, so you could say without us you may all be talking Danish now!!
His comment about Israel didn’t really need to be there. But it’s good to be aware of the good the Britain has put into the world.
There is so much online hate for Britain. Some people will give the impression that Britains only contribution was slavery and colonialism. There has hardly ever been a nation on this earth that hasn’t got some nasty skeletons in its closet. It’s human nature. There will always be good and always be bad.
Another point to add, many of Britains greatest inventions were Scottish. I know that there’s a lot of talk about Scotland wanting to be independent etc. But, speaking as an Englishman, I’m immensely proud to be associated with the Scots. Historically their invention and industry have been essential to Britain’s past successes. They’ve also enriched the British Isles culturally. If they want to break away, then that’s their choice to make. But I’d be sad for the loss. Not because I think England should in some way control the Scots. But because I love standing shoulder to shoulder with their great nation.
Not just culturally - my DNA came back as 45% Scottish! No wonder I was always fascinated when my English teacher was speaking to the clas - she was a Scot! I knew about a percentage of Irish, but otherwise considered English. Life is full of interesting surprises isn't it? All due to the findng and usage of DNA!

Learn your own history. British railway engineering was exported all over the world including USA but as it was after independance private US companies built your rail network.
So they were paid to do a job .?Thats not inventing something ,thats winning a contact .Try to understand our language ,if you cant dont use it 😂
Whatever the British may or may not have done, it was not that which improved the grammar of who wrote the title of the video.

What are you talking about .The idea ,invention of railways came from Britain and was used around the world .All countries have trains now 😂

@@MrJoeshipley Very weird
True though
I'd add the UAE to that, 2 decent countries. Both immaculately brand new.
Amazing, thank you, mandible articulations Lead to audible understandable speech, keep slurring...you’ll never be understood....
I wonder why the guy he mentioned as the best country's in the world🤔There's no scientific reason evidence of such a statement🤐It's the opposite.All these country's he's mentioned is placed on the bottom of every index scale of happiness,wealth and so on😏
What ?
To be fair, given the scale of the Empire and the resources and people within it, we had a bit of help with some of that. And as everyone knows everything is easier when you have good help.
Like ?
What we obviously did not do for you was teach you grammar, it should be 'what did the British do for us' it helps not to confuse tenses. I think our greatest contribution to, in common with much of europe was the enlightement, which was the basis both of political democracy and the scientific method, both of which have had and stll have a profound lasting influence that has shaped our world. Look at the current mess that is happening from globalisation and the abandonment of the scientific reality, both the complete opposite of the enligtenment.
'What have the British done for us'.
Americans tend not to use the Present Perfect tense so much, which is a shame as it is a very precise way of describing actions that happened from the past until now. Unlike the Past Simple tense which just describes an event that started and finished in the past.
They clearly didn't teach you English very well!
Are you speaking English? Make sure you have enough water - especially the plastic bottled (American) kind. You speak English? I wonder why....l Did you go to school? Oh, yes, the American Dream crap.
Its American English 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂Thats what call it .Bill of rights stolen from the English bill of rights ,common law ,judge and jury .I could go on forever
Us Brits should be rightly proud of our contributions to the modern world, but if we hadn't invented or discovered something, someone else would have eventually.
I'm not convinced, look around yourself.

Ehh I stopped watching at 'the only decent country in the middle east is Israel...' . The guy probably would have had a point about the benefits of european technological advances etc, but that particular comment told me a little too much about the extremity to which he stands personally on some important topics...
Many beieve he is right. Let us not forget it is only a few decades ago that the other countries in the middle east openly accepted the enslavement of anyone who was not a muslim. Also, how many Muslims live in Israel compared to how many Jews live in Arab countries!
Put your copy of Mein Kampf away and take a look around you!
You may not like it but he's right. The only democratic country in the Middle East where gays and women have equal rights and Arabs are even in parliament.

@@robertlonsdale5326 You mean like Einstein?
@@f3aok I'm not even saying that those points are factually incorrect - I'm just saying that the fact that he chose to sneak that comment in the way that he did, suggests a lot about the guy's personal attitude toward the discussion.
