    Brings back so many great memories, spent two months in China. The old Great wall is the best part, away from tourists, i walked for hours and many miles. Had the massage and cups, its not so bad. Went to the Shaolin Temple, Chengdu Panda Sanctuary, Xi An, Beijing, Guilin, Dragons Back Bone and so many other places. The spitting is so common, could never get used to that. No queuing either, its a free for all. But such a fascinating country with an amazing history... Would recommend it to everyone, but you need at least a couple of months. Such a vast country and different regions.

    You should check out shaolin monk training. Breaking metal things on their head and throwing needles through glass is very real. Though to pop the balloon they don't actually have to have the needle go through. It only requires the needle to hit it hard enough to force the glass to crack which will expel small bits of glass outward on the other side to hit the balloon.

      @@StateOfMind63 Well, I wouldn't call it a magic illusion if they have to train so hard to do it... proper magic illusions require cleverness and skilled misdirection. They don't seem that clever to me, just practicing throwing a lot or bashing their heads to break some inanimate objects.
      About them being mostly 90% performers instead of martial artists, I imagine they have departments, so some students will study a lot of performance, some will study martial arts, some will do a bit of both.

      That's way too niche. His humour is rotted from experiences across the UK, mainly England. Definitely not just one small part lol.

    dragon's den is a reality game show where you propose your business idea or invention and people offer to buy it or tell you to go home if they dont like it.

      The yanks have the same thing, it’s called “Shark Tank”

    I’m 34, this the hardest I’ve ever laughed at a show when this came out, i think the best comedic shows ever are Seinfeld and Curb. But this show is a different kind of comedy, it’s just pure genius to me.

    "Dragon's Den" is the UK version of "Shark Tank". I only ever watched the 1st season as it just seemed to get mean towards poor Karl. Love the reaction though :)

      Haha, no offense but Karl made fun of people like you on his return home episode. He was like "first of all, stop saying I'm being bullied, because I'm nearly 40." He's getting paid for this dude c=

      Frank already said Shark Tank directly after Karl said Dragons Den.

      No, shark tank is the US version of Dragons Den, not the other way round 😄

    "When she gets up in the morning and goes to the bath and there's a spider in there, what does she do? Oh good, I'll leave the croissant for tomorrow. I'll eat THAT now." Hahahaaaa! Man I love me some Karl Pilkington!

    Hope the rest of the fans can get into this.
    It's so good and a doorway into so much content , even outside of Karl
