My parents use to say they will send me of to the circus when I was naughty as a kid. I didn't think people actually did it
😆 SAME!!!!
i would use the phrase if i will have a child. tell them thank you in advance.
Forget boarding school, I’ll send my kid to the circus
Omg same! My parents and family used to say the same to me as a child.
Is this a British thing? Also sounds like the full opposite of a punishment. But working in a circus would be much more rehabilitative than most punishments.
"My mom is a clown, my stepdad is a clown, my dad is a clown, i'm a clown" it's describes my family, but we are didn't get pay for that.
😂😂
Oh my god hahahaha same
ЧЕСТНОК LMAOO
Hahaha best comment ever
💀💀💀💀😭😭😭😭
✨🤡✨
That little boy Louis is too sweet and wise beyond his years. What a bright young boy. Parents should both be very proud they've raised such a self aware sensitive child.
"You caught me hair, tho. 'At's the one fing I wanna keep."
LFMAO!!!
Same, sis. Same
When he threw the top of the cart on his grandpa I lost it😂
lol same
The father and son relationship is so wholesome!
The 17 YO boy's mum took the phrase that every parent says of "If you don't stop doing that I'll send you to the circus" way too literally.
Will anymore of these videos be released from the circus kids series?
am i the only one who is binging them 😅
Look up the Big Apple Circus documentary. It's brilliant
Thanks Amanda Butterfield, good recommendation! 🧈 (sorry if the butter was offensive, I just thought it was cute!) lol
I cant find the other ones :(
@@amandab8433 thanks🎪💜
I love that the kids name is Luke and the dog is Vader
In my town there used to be a circus school, the building is still here, near to the gymnastics gym but sadly it stopped being a school many years ago. Some children who practiced their skills there used to go to my elementary school and my teacher told us that for a year she had in the class one of those kids and was astonished by her commitment both in the circus life and school, she said she was one of the most brilliant students in the class
We have a circus school in town & it still operates. Circus kids are always great students, I went to school with a few of them.
5:00 " I'm a clown" LOL
"I've got thousands in my bank"
Me: circus here I come
So glad they got rid of the animals! Wish they had these traveling family circuses in America. I would've loved this as a kid.
That would be so much more fun now!
But then again, we can’t go there...
The Northeast has a cool all youth circus called Circus Smirkus! Kids from around the country perform in it and it usually travels over the summer around June to August but obviously not this year lol. It also has a camp and outreach programs to get kids into the art. I have a few friends that have done it and I was impressed!
Sameee.
It would be sooo coool.
I LOVE preforming! And I love all the aspects of circus life!
We had one come to town last year. I think they won't be returning though, someone took their dog last time. Got him back but man, they didn't seem as awesome as the England circus. And they had animals.
Dogs would be ok
Good bond and travel pets but nothing else
It's great to see amazing talented kids following their dreams. I love documentaries like this!
What beautiful families, and all of the children are absolutely wonderful. Love seeing involved parents, and especially love seeing such articulate, artistic, and well behaved children.
This reminds me of The Lunar Circus, which was a circus that my family would go to. They were there for 3 weeks and you could camp for those weeks. The first 2 are practicing times and learning to do things and helping set up, and the 3rd week was the shows. They were anything from teaching tricks like trapeze or juggling, to traditional circus acts, to the night-time adult cabarets and shows. There was just the best sense of safety and happiness, even surrounded by people you don't know. There was also a family that always lived with the circus who did acrobatics. It was just a great place with good memories. (this is in Australia, btw)
Louis is just adorable!
I really appreciate how much Brandon and all the rest of crew work together and fight for a certain goal. Very inspiring.
I’m a circus performer and this type,of circus is dying out, it’s not like this anymore.
What's it like now?
How do I become a circus performer? Do I need to have a relative in the business, or can I like audition?
I’m not a performer but I take circus arts classes and I LOVE them.
Marianiki2002 Strong I assume you can audition. Look for any openings online, or in person the next time you go to the circus.
I'm also a circus performer all my friends and cousins are from family circuses but I did notice there's not a lot of young performers anymore.
Honestly loving this series! It also makes me so happy seeing how well these kids are growing up and the loving relationships they have with everyone, both in-blood and in circus family.
What a sweet kid Brandon seems to be now, the way he wants to make his dad proud is so cute too
This is so underrated I love this series
"Can we skip?" ❤️
I literally just finished the other circus kids video 20 minutes after this one was posted
Me to Lol 😂
SarahDawn’s Brain I did like a couple hours before
I love how parents trust the kids and don't push them unless they want to take their own steps.
These people are magic. I love them.
i feel like there is too much pressure on little kids, especially the little 8yr old boy. He still has so much to do in his life so let him process everything and if he wants to ba in the circus, of course, but if he doesn't, that's ok. Let him do his own thing
Noemie Fukasawa they said they don’t force anything on the kids at all they just want to .
i had a laugh when that kid said hes a clown but when he said he's bullied at school i became so sad :((((
Wait a minute... Is this a new episode? Is that why I can only find 2 episodes of this show? I just found it last week but I thought it was maybe a couple years old. Freaking awesome!
13:18 I feel bad that I laughed
"You cut me hair! That's one thing I want to keep!" 🤣
Omg I just saw the last episode and thought it was just the one. I've now realized it is a series and I'm so happy! Thank you to everyone who agreed to participate so we could be a small part of your wonderful world! Love to you all.
The mom was willing to quit the circus so her son could focus on his education 😭 she's so kind
"I'm just wanting to get paid. " I feel ya, kid!
"You caught me hair, that's one thing I wanna keep" yeah... who cares about your heart, brain, eye, or fingers?
i love watching these as a fellow acrobat
say what you want about the mom who sent her kid away but I'd rather join a circus than get sent to some military school like parents do in the states
Blonde boy speaks in cursive
anyone gonna talk about Brandon smoking?
When? Timestamp?
Nm found it at 9:07
Hé came to circus cause he had no respect for anyone. I guess that’s when he started smoking. I think in the circus they don’t mind if you do your sork
This looks fun . My dream is to be a gymnast
Brandon is the sweetest kid.
My dream is to finish highschool and join the circus
Would b fun for the kids. But hard work,but they still need to learn ,even if they do home schooling.
they do. the 8 year old goes to public school. he talked about the bullying that happens from some kids.
These videos were so interesting to watch!
My grandma said she is going to send me to the Circus if I don’t get good grades but I ain’t complain
i feel so bad for that poor kids grandpa XD
Im addicted to this series
My great grandma grew up in the circus. Her mom died when she was two and her Aunt took her in because her dad worked for the railroad. That's where she lived and went to school.
He can speak four languages WHAT
I thought people sent their children to military schools as punishment to straighten them out- not the circus.
I'm guessing child circus performers fall under the same laws/rules as child actors on tv/broadway?
Or traveller children/ gypsies. Do they still have to do school- like homeschool?
Will there be another episode? I love watching it
I wish my parents would send me to the circus instead the rhythmic gymnastics😔
Comments during the first hour:
FIRST
Me: I don't even know what to comment.
You could’ve commented nothing, but you came up with this instead! Lol 😂
I'm 18 and I never went to circus,watching this was cool😁
I’m a contortionist but it’s not my job my mum thinks I just do it for fun. I don’t think my Algerian dad and French mum will approve of me working in the circus, and I also want to be an actress in films, I did my first acting show at 8 years old. I’m pre-teen by the way lol
You seem like u have an idea of what you want to do when your older. I say Go after your dreams😊 good luck
when will the new episode air
Can I like adopt Louis?
wait- was this the last one already
13:20 me when i see a bee or any thing else that stings
So what happens if a kid in these families decides they don’t want to do circus and want a different career
I want next episode
13:20 😂
I tried to find info about this circus online but nothing came up. does anyone know if they're still doing the shows or not?
17 and smoking omg
"EHEM" circus "ehem"
Louis is adorable
52 SCHOOLS! How is that... what?
OMG, who would not want to do this?
5:00 y'all are getting paid?
Is this show made in 2020 ????
Kiki Robinson nope, it's just a repost of another channel.
sofieishere, what’s the original channel?
Anyone know the name of the music from 24:26 to 25:15
A lot of this is all too familiar as an American carnival kid.
He needs more food !!!
So jealous of these kids honestly
I hope thier business survived the corona virus.
Aweww
So cool!
Damn lt. Want popcorn now.
everything else is fine but I think we could live without the knife throwing act
Ooh I wish I could be at a circus like that. I am starting to learn some circus stuff and I wish that one day I'll be able to be in one of these
Was that portuguese at 29:15 ?
Fecha os pés?
How many people are there in this family?
i feel so bad for luis that is horrible
lemme join
Hi first comment love you guys
Child labor! They don't allow animals to be pressured into performing but it is fine to put kids through this stress...RIGHT!!!??!?!?!
what are you on about?? the kids can choose if they wanna do it or not. Their parents show them what it is and if they dont like it they dont have to do it.
You have heard about child actors and athletes before. Honestly this all sounds better because they are with family and looked after and loved. And that's not always the case with the other because the parents are right there working with the children. Not just living though them or just living large because of them
𝚄𝚖𝚖𝚖𝚖... I do bolth
And you think we care?
@@fluffypancakes8427 No, and you think I care that you don't care
Second.
Ok but y'all both said first. I know I was 3rd. 🤪
💗💗💗🙏😉🌈👏
First
Such a limited life.
excuse me? this life isnt limited at all :/.. the parents are so supportive and if the kids wanna go to school they can :/!
it's slavery
Did you just compare slavery to this wow
R u... stupid?
no its not. Kids can choose if they wanna do it or not. They get paid. its a fun way for kids to make friends
