Why the fake clickbait photo of the container ship breaking in half? 🙄
Satan tells him what to do
They have the photo of the ship and never even mention it. Then they want you to watch a Playlist of their other videos. Fool me once.... etc,etc,etc.
Thanks, I won’t be watching the vid. 🙏
Because you clicked on it 💁♂
@@KreemieNewgatt Ummm 🤨 Doesn’t matter 🤦
New Coke wasn't so much a scheme to boost sales as it was to stop production so they could switch the formula over from sugar to high fructose corn syrup without people really noticing. Sugar was (and still is) much more expensive than HFCS which is why they wanted to switch. They couldn't do it immediately or else people would have been flooding them with complaints about the taste being off, so they concocted New Coke to allow some time for people to mostly not know straight away that something was off.
If you have an international section in your grocery store, look there for imported Coke from Mexico in glass bottles. It is still made with sugar there and you can *absolutely* taste the difference between the two if you taste them side by side. The usage of HFCS in soft drinks has been directly linked to the obesity epidemic in the US so it's poisoning people while helping Coca Cola keep costs down. Vile.
I love Coke Zero
It always amazes me when I have a coke overseas made with cane sugar, it tastes much better.
I didn’t know about all that stuff,but I do know about the sugar and corn syrup taste!👍✌️
Come in a glass bottle taste better anyway
Cool story, bro. Citation needed.
What about the Bud Light marketing scheme?If you owned stock in the parent company you`d be pulling out someone`s hair.
The Summer Olympics should be held in Greece every time. They already build the venue once and can now just do a few upgrades every 4 years. Yes I am a traditionalist so I love the idea.
That abandoned airport in Spain was used for a Top Gear/Grand Tour episode.
What is your ranking system? Messing up a painting ranks higher than losing billions? And as Charles Harper points out, what's with the container ship clickbait?
I would love a list of cities that actually BENEFITED ten years later from hosting the Olympics.
As a resident of Massachusetts and former worker in the great city of Boston I and likely many other in this area are extremely glad the Olympics will be somewhere else in 2024. Instead of spending all this money renovating a different city every time the olympics are held, why not just pick one city and stick with it? The money saved could be better used elsewhere.
That train debacle in France reminds me of the IC4 and AnsaldoBreda debacle in Denmark... its quite a story.. from how one of the train sets ended up with Danish markings and turning up in the possesion of Gaddafi in Libya, to the danish rail carrier that was suppose to recieve them looking at the state of completion (which was nowhere near to the specification promised), vowing to try and fix the mistakes (and barely making them drivable) to the fact that they got slated to be phased out 10-20 years earlier than planned because of said mistakes.
New coke craptasticness was due to moving from cane sugar to high fructose corn syrup for the sweeter
40 plus grams of sugar per bottle. What could possibly go wrong.
I remember when two years ago in year 2021 a really BIG Evergiven cargoship was stuck on a Suez canal in an Egypt, that is one of most EXPENSIVE fail in a history. The difficult problems of the blocked cargoship reached all the way to here Finland. That fail was in a two years ago but I still remember it like yesterday. 🌎🌍🌏🏞🏝🏜🌅🏔🚢⛰️
The Walkie Talkie building had a lattice built in front of the curved glass facade. The white sides were always like this
The Olympics are such a "waste"...and the Eche Omo painting....lmfao hysterical
Can’t believe the woman had the nerve to try
I would love to repulse myself by viewing your body type. Your general, and unsubstantiated comment its ultimately auto-nulified. (this is my final comment here)
*Thank you, I am amazed watching these wonderful moments*
Glad you enjoyed it
Errata - JPL is NOT owned by NASA. JPL is a Federally-Funded Research and Development Center (FFRDC) owned and operated by Caltech and contracted with NASA, which provided the vast majority of JPL’s funding.
But wouldnt survive without nas nas so "figuratively" _owned_ nudge nudge
*Thank you, I am amazed watching these wonderful moments*
Nope, exactly wrong. It’s not owned by Caltech. It’s a federal facility administered by Caltech for NASA. NASA got it from the Army. Whether it’s considered “owned” by NASA is immaterial, it’s ultimately owned by the US government.
Actually, all JPL employees are Caltech badged. NASA has a contract with Caltech, and each activity that JPL carries out for NASA is done thru a task on that contract.
Yup I got a b he in N in in um I’m😊
I was waiting for the Bud Light one...
Kid Rock was caught drinking it weeks ago!! There are photos and videos. All BS. Big deal made out of nothing by the I.S.O.D T.L.C. !!
The Death Ray building
Notice the US military ship named 'Detroit'. That itself was a curse for it to fail just like Detroit, Michigan, USA failed as a large city in the last 20 years.
$20,000,000 + $4,000,000 for Boston paying people to shuffle paper. That’s nothing compared to parking a Jaguar Discover Sport in Luton Airport. Just wait till the car is on fire, then drive in and leave it in flames while you board a plane. Cost about £83,000 for the Jag + £20,000,000 for the new car park + £115,000,000 for the loss if other vehicles + £621,500 lost for each day the airport was closed due to the fire.
Some time later, Bud Light took it to a whole other level and clearly feel the consequences of that decision..
Disney as well but just more subtlety is all; since March of 2022 Disney has $196B in market valuation.
Good night from NYC
Good night
What's missing for me, is the loss of the Costa Concordia in 2012, where a ship captain wanted to show off in front of his girlfriend and sunk his cruise ship with over 3,000 passengers and 1,000 crew members on board. A loss of about $ 600,000,000.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Costa_Concordia_disaster
Get over it.
32 people died including some staff members.
The captain was found guilty & imprisoned for years.
@@deborahklinlger8565 Yep, sorry, I should have mentioned that. Also interresting is the guy of the coast guard, yelling at the captain to go back on board to organize the evacuation, cause the captain was one of the first leaving the sinking vessel, not the last one as usual.
@@seivaDsugnA You troll. The Concordia incident is defininitely a top choice. The damages, not including the loss of life, far exceed some of those on the list we see here. I hope you were drunk when you posted that troll comment, with nothing potential positive to gain from saying such remark. I defend Stefan's comment suggesting Concordia (on hopefully the next episode).
Sorry for my flippency. I don't me_n it.@@thriftyoutdoorsman7860
Es muy bueno saber me encanta el vídeo
Some embarrassingly expensive mistakes to say the least. 😮
how about
IBM telling microsoft "sure pal you can keep the right to the software, no-one has made a dime with it"
some guy at EMI "we are not signing that band up hell they cant even spell beetles right"
read about what the nerds at PARC came up with for xerox. got killed off when told xerox that "this will make paper in the office obsolete" ( not what a photocopying company wants to hear)
It's not a literal combat ship, it's LITTORAL. And it was cracks in the hull that brought it down.
It wasn't just the Note 7 that would overheat...I had a couple of other mobile phones that did...they got so hot, I actually had a slight burn on my hand
Excelentes historias
Suez is in Egypt.... Panama is in Central America
I completely disagree.
Ok....unless he reuploaded the video w an edit, the way the canal was discussed is correct and your comment isn't necessary. He said it connects the Mediterranean to the Red Sea, that's both correct and does not imply he thought the Suez was in South America
Wrong. Suez is in Egypt which is in Africa. Panama is in Panama which is in Central America.
Which has nothing to do with what he said.
south america
So for the price of a failed smartphone launch, you could buy 17 state of the art subs, or a complete fleet of new high speed trains?
Wow thank you. We watched all your videos on the TV every day at dinner.thank you for the information.
So nice of you
@topfives no problem great job
Actually they still sold new coke here in canada until 2004 as "Coke" right beside Coke Classic.
Will point out narrator "forgot" to talk about the Spain Airport being opened in 2009, at the height of the world recession/US severe recession started in 2007 then moved outward to the rest of the world. This is why it also failed.
Id like to know how you measure mercury being closer to earth than venus.
That like saying madrid is closer to new york than boston because if you hover at the latitude of New York then madrid will pass under you and you wont have to travel.
Galaxy Note 7 was a beautiful phone.
The note 7 was my favorite note. I owned all of them.
Please do not cite "top fives" as a source while writing your doctoral thesis on the position of mars relative to the earth
New coke was done on purpose it was not a blunder.
I didn't like New Coke, and I was not in any focus groups.
8:16 Don't blame the canal width. The EverGiven got stuck because the canal pilot who took over the ship was ass.
6:30 Why didn't Denmark buy some of these trains that need new regional trains and S-trains? we Danes have some of the widest S-trains in the EU?
Appears they Used the same footage in the last disaster at 23:37 and 20:49 for the mars mistake.
New coke was awful!
I remember. Felt like it was done on purpose to boost up Pepsi, but who really knows?
That's what I heard.
11:20 146.30 for a gallon of gas!!!!!!
CONTAINERS FALL INTO THE OCEAN QUITE OFTEN. WHY AREN'T THEY FASTENED DOWN ?
The "New Coke" was a huge sucess for Coca Cola, they gained publicity worth $$$
I was NOT asked, but I never liked the "new" Coke.
New Coke was the best thing that ever happened to Coca-Cola because it tasted like Pepsi
9:16 whose fault was it?
My husband and I love all your videos. Can we get your name please
Appreciate the support! I'm Joshua the producer of the show. Glad you liked our videos
The thumbnail is photo-shopped. It does not exist and is not in the video.
BOSTON IS A TIHS ELOH
The CZcams thumbnail is totally misleading - it bears no relationship to the video whatsoever. Sadly this is a common problem which CZcams don't seem to care about correcting. It is misrepresentation. If a company tried to advertise their merchandise with such false promises they would quickly be brought to book by the ASA.
The fact that they lost 100s of millions of $s is a load of rubbish because both are owned by the same company and so where Pepsi scores due to Coke going down, it balances the losses of Coke. Ask Nestle.
coke is getting to Expensive its over 44 dollars for a carton of 30 cans
$18 for 36 at Costco.
WHO GOT THE MONEY FROM THE FINE ? THE OTHER COMPANIES ? 😂😂😂😂😂😂 NOT.
LOOK AT FRANCE NOW. GO FARMERS !!!
Your thumbnail for the video shows a container ship breaking in half... NOTHING about that in the video. CLICKBAIT
What might have happened with that probe: it may have been sent over the ice wall to another realm also surrounded in ice, also called: "Mars" on some maps. One possible explanation why rockets fly horizontally and not up up up!
Off your meds again aren’t you? Need to restart them because your delusions seem to be getting worse.
Pepsi Max beats any Coke now, specially 'sugar free', a horrible replacement for Coke Zero.
What ever happened to ORIGINAL content. Everyone copies everyone else’s video ideas.
Mars - a light in space LOL. No probe went to Mars
HAVE A LOOK THRU A TELESCOPE SEE FOR YOURSELF
Click bait a holes
17:18 somehow being American, I suspect Russia, got exactly what they wanted , and expensive bridge going to a lonely island, that few ever used, for no other reason than exactly that, an expensive bridge going to a lonely island that few ever use. I think they would find that appealing, I know I find it attractive.
Good on Russia.
Coke and Pepsi tha same thing no different juss tha name
You probably think mayonnaise and Miracle Whip taste the same too 😂
Yep, there both 💩.
No they not the same even ants know that...
@@clintcountryman4849 Tf boii mayonnaise be ugly asf lik you nd thats the same 💀😂
Earth is a flat plane with a dome. You think you’re flying thru space as a monkey. Silly mf’r
