Another Unsolved Cork Mystery is The Great Emo Migration from outside Paul’s Street “”””Shopping Centre”””” to the grass outside tkmaxx 50 metres away. This great journey caused many a platform-boot related injury and at least 24 fatalities. The cause of this Great Migration is unknown, but it’s believed to be related to increasing socio-political tensions and rising costs of monster energy.
I can assure you no emo has ever worn - nor knows the meaning of - a platform shoe. Emo is post hardcore music that has roots in the mid west of America, Seattle and Washington. My chemical romance, from first to last, any modern artists claiming emo are not emo: they are pop bands claiming ownership over a true sub culture. You are referring to greebos, losers or just plain Twat’s that have no idea about actual subcultures and instead are just shell suit Twat’s in even worse clothing without the ability to fight.. absolute waste
Solved! The only goth shop in Cork was in Paul Street, and when that closed the goths were displaced. This changed with the opening of Bauhaus under TKMaxx, and the pilgrimage between the two was a long and dangerous trek.
Ever since I moved to Ireland from Scotland from Canada, I use all these videos for every ounce of knowledge of Ireland I have ever gained. I am forever indebted to you.
Impressive research lad👌also nice touch using the term Corkians instead of ‘Corkonians’ it’s our word ya know so can be touchy when others use it! Respect🤙 Some quick Cork facts: -1. The city limits now has a population of 210k but the metropolitan area is estimated between 35-40million. -2. Micheal Collins last words were “Gwan I f@&king dare ya!” -3. Fungi the Dolphin was a prank we played on Kerry back in the 80s but it’s gone way too far and we don’t have the heart to tell them!😕
I’m from Cork myself and I broke my hole laughing through nearly the entirety of this video. I especially loved the bit about the blue ghost of Sir.Henry haunting UCC students, pure fucking gold, brilliant writing! I’ve subscribed just off the back of this video.
Have been waiting for your cork video for a while. You nailed it...! You clearly did your research on the nuances and history. Great job! (From a Corkman :))
I clicked on this hoping it would solve the mystery of how they squeeze a cork into a bottle so tight that it takes a special tool to get it out. Instead I learned about a strange place and people I'd never heard of before. Got to say, I'd rather have had my question answered.
Aahhh sure like, he's not from Cork like, so he'll never understand how great Cork is like. Poor Dublin culchie can't survive in a great place like Cork like.
@@meditationsfortheanxiousmind That would be awesome man, I can definitely see some lo-fi producers sampling it and slowing it down, it's so sparkly! it reminds me a lot of Studio Ghibli

@@cre4turefe4ture This is why I like CZcams, as a history fan I love the in depth niche historical content like this.

Rip Michael Collins
Cork is like an exaggerated combo of Dublin and Galway, in the best and worst ways possible
Yeah it's like you take the two, remove the ring roads and replace it with hills
The biggest mystery of all is why Cork hasn't changed much since the tans burned it.
When you close your eyes Kinsale looks like Marbella.
An arts degree as secondary school with constant non uniform day is dead on haha
This channel is going to grow big time. Wait and see.
It's shit
@@barrymcguire5048 its fuckin class man. U being a dry shite is your own fault.
Indeed
This channel deserves growth. The content is great and super funny
@@barrymcguire5048 shag off
My Irish Grandparents strap me to chair and make me watch your videos so I have a better understanding of the horrors they escaped
I'm moving from Galway to Cork in September. This is a good primer.
I'm shocked that he hasn't done Limerick yet.
Brilliant ....kiiiiid .
I once met a guy from Cork, I honestly thought he was Polish.
Outstanding, like!
The favelas of Rio were the inspiration for the council to build housing estates on the hills
Funny, fun yet poignant. Love Cork btw, great jazz Fest there each year!
Yes, finally a cork video. So happy
Delighted Leeside Mysteries have finally been explained. More people need to understand why we are the way we are biy
I like the idea of Cork being the Texas of Ireland...
I was born in cork, only reason I can watch this is that I've since moved to Dublin
I'm amazed the hash house didn't get a mention, second home of the Crawford students and the dolphin sesh in parchment square. namaste
Have been waiting for your cork video for a while. You nailed it...! You clearly did your research on the nuances and history. Great job! (From a Corkman :))
As a lad who lives in cork, I find this very accurate, thank you sir
Class, keep them comin...the Galway one was brilliant as well
Amazing!!! Well done dude .

The first time I went to Cork I saw an ole wan squatting in an alley taking a piss in broad daylight and it will stay with me forever, namaste.

Edit: I have researched a bit but I can’t find anything on this Mysterious place
As someone from Cork this is 100% accurate (the government tried to stop me from watching this but they underestimated the power of a petrol bomb)
Absolute PhD grade anthropology, once again
Jonathan Rhys Meyers hails from there. That's all I know about it, and I feel it explains a lot.
This had me rolling, perfect, thanks
Brilliant research and i laughed loads at this, well done and for the record, Im a Corkonian Norrie!!
Im not from Ireland, but this is the greatest thing ever.

I'm from Cork and this video is fairly accurate 😂 boi Sir Henry's sadly missed boi 😉
This should be on next years Leaving Cert
Excellent stuff...what is the backing track? Its beautiful
Corkonians - Not Corkians. And KC's is staffed by Jehovas, not Mormons - Mormons could never get a Creole to taste that good.
I am never wrong even when I’m factually incorrect 🙏🏻namaste
Watched this and I'm from Cork.
But wouldn't have known about it if it wasn't for my Dub girlfriend.
Perfect other than the fact carrigaline isn't in it :(
The level of detail….
legend has it that all these obscure facts are actually true.
Cant wait for limerick

The dialect sounds like the cognate to Brummie in English.

The eco man is my messiah.

You need to pronounce the 'K' more in Cork.
