I hope they break up can't help him

1:42 there that is so whack dude you know I didn't know this but uh the UK is a poorer America did you guys know that and what do you mean what do you mean by that I I was shocked I thought that the UK because of Harry Potter and British people I thought they were like classy or sophisticated sophisticated bro that's just London outside man that they're like ours hardcore or that's more Oxford but yeah that's like Hawks area yeah nah dude that there are dude yeah Deliverance just everywhere else they're drunk fighting ass happy ass dude yeah they're like man I was like I like you guys I thought you were ████

3:26 are you thirsty I'll get you did they say that does it say they said that yeah can you check yeah it says so this British tourist though um he uh ignorantly claims that he didn't realize how old it was he didn't realize oh why is he even there that's not bad you're telling me he coincidentally ended up next to the Coliseum and just thought it was a race he should have just confessed his love for his his lady he's like I just love my lady so much we had to carve our initials in the wall that would have been better than ████ I didn't know it was that old that's not bad that's a terrible ████ excuse why is she putting something so all right here should be in the museum I like that age determines whether or not to vandalize something yeah dude's like like that matters I have those uh oh like hey this

4:17 just got built why aren't you carving that how new is this when you go to Europe though there's so much old ████ that it just feels like I can carve my there's um there's another there's just everywhere but the best part is you don't realize it yeah yeah that's true some of these buildings be like thousands of years old and ████ yeah and the specific notoriety of the Roman Coliseum is is a protected UNESCO world heritage site like it's who the ████ doesn't know the Colosseum so is he gonna get in trouble what kind of troubles are you getting can they send him to Bangkok or they whoop his ass or something yeah yeah Singapore see they act like he did that in Singapore to the Mandalay can they export the punishment I want to go to the Coliseum they that was the original UFC it's pretty cool because he was tight costume is badass uh the man was later

5:08 identified as British man Ivan dimitrov a 27 year old fitness instructor living in Bristol who now faces a fine and even potential prison term yes that's sad teach Fitness in jail [Laughter] he has since written a letter of apology to uh the mayor of Rome saying that only now does he realize the seriousness of the deed committed ████ he just sorry he got caught he's trying to go to jail right in the letter he wrote quote through these lines I would like to address my heartfelt and honest apologies to the Italians and to the whole world for the damage caused to an asset which in fact is the heritage of all Humanity that's a chat gbt apology for sure and then he wants to carve his apologies on the walls I'm so sorry a regular Martin Luther

5:58 he praised those who will guard the inestimable uh historical and artistic value of the Coliseum with dedication care and sacrifice it is with deep embarrassment that only after what regrettably happened did I learn of the Antiquity of the monument oh my God they should just like be allowed to carve on his back yeah Adidas Italia it's pretty good I think I think I think it's fair to get flogged for something like this Vlog but Vlog just temporary right carving on his back is forever just like on the brick what if what if he gets hit with like a Fiat or something yeah it's too small yeah it would do what the Romans do we have to fly the Tiger that's really they bring the Coliseum back and he's the he's the beginning show yeah oh I want to see the Coliseum back in Action Lions versus criminal oh

6:51 yeah carving his back is probably the best one but you're right yeah so he's now under investigation for damaging a cultural heritage and faces a fine of between 2500 and 15 000 Euros as well as a prison sentence of two to five years dude they should carve sabaro on his back best pizza joint around maybe all the Italian companies can sew a patch on his back for sponsorship and he has to walk around shirtless like a NASCAR yeah yeah yeah so then they get free promotion Yeah so basically it would be Ferrari Ferragamo Versace everybody wins everybody wins I think it's fair for everyone

7:41 [Laughter] all the Pasadena Italian restaurants that's good man pardino Brothers yeah and they just bid for how big they want their Spaghetti Factory um have you guys been to an Old Spaghetti Factory I seen it I just never been I haven't been to a spaghetti how many of you guys been to Italy though oh you so lucky me and Joe haven't gone how's the taste of the food there the best and you're amazing it is really

8:31 good yeah amazing it's very good I think hands down best so they're like they deserve their food snobbery unlike France because France are they're really snobby about food but they ████ suck do you think their food is trash it's so bad I went to two Michelin restaurants there it was so bad what was bad about the the Michelin star restaurants to me yeah well it's your to me okay I feel like when you grow up eating um really buttery Rich things right you build that palette for it so then the older you get you want greasier crazy or ████ and I feel like all they do is drink espresso smoke cigarettes drink wine and ████ eat a bagel and kill their taste buds or pastry croissant croissant or whatever right and then they eat these like really high fat weird things that to me I'm like

9:22 Mal's getting constipated for like so many days my favorite food in France was Italian food and Japanese food like even at the fresh food is the opposite from Mexican food basically yeah it is the opposite it is Mexican food is bomb I don't know but I did not like french food even at the Michelin star restaurants yeah I'm like why are you guys so snobby when this ████ is so bad because of Ratatouille dude but Italian food in France was so good I was I went to a a pizza like specialty joint in uh in Venice and uh they have like their tomato sauces there was like 13 different tomato sauces that you could even choose from so it's like you don't usually go

10:12 to a pizza place they have one standard tomato sauce across all pizzas yeah 13 different ragus yeah different different ragus species of tomatoes and so like like the way that they can customize the pizza is insane and then uh it took two minutes to cook wow like when I thought I ordered the pizza I thought I was gonna be like okay like we're gonna chill I'll use the restroom and as soon as I got the rest how did they cook it so fast well because they have their own special like um what is it called like Neapolitan like style where it goes in at eight or nine hundred degrees in like a special like so it's just it's like their microwave no it's like a um it's like a brick oven it's like a brick oven yeah high heat they pull it in pull it out it comes out the bottom is crispy right above it it's

11:02 like soft because it's thin and then the tomato sauce is made right then and there so it's not like they they season the tomato sauce and then they sit they let it sit there for a whole day it's like you see like tomato chunks on it so like whenever you order the tomatoes is crushed right so it's like crazy fresh like the flavors are bright as ████ so when you bite into it you're like oh I wish it was pepperoni on yeah well they have pepperoni too but you're like God damn this is CR it's like all the flavors jump out at you it's insane hey butt secret pizza at the cosmo in Las Vegas it's really good what is it is it like it's Italy is it different why is it so good it's just ████ bomb what's secret Pizza I need to go check it out it's uh it's like a little restaurant that has honestly just one of the sickest pizzas period what is it it's

11:52 hella thick it's like a thick pie but I don't just the way they make it yeah I like the way you say thick Chicago type of pizza I like those yeah it's kind of deep dishes but like I don't think Chicago when I eat it it's just it's just good oh dude it makes me want pizza now so when you guys were in Italy did you eat every day like oh my God this is so good honestly yeah yeah oh I'm going to it and and like oh I want to go there next and like um everywhere too so like everywhere I go I like to get street food and I like to get like a nice restaurant even the street food like like a tourist place outside of the Coliseum where it's like a a refrigerator and the the sandwich is already pre-made and then when you pick it they just heat it up for you even something as simple as that was good and then the lotto right after oh yeah what's that gelato you get gelato do

12:42 they have mango that's my favorite one oh really oh yeah they got mango we got cantaloupe I don't know about that one that's a little bit more of a rarity mango gelato is my favorite but they probably have more Italian ones like pistachio or something espresso they got espresso yeah they got espresso they have guava oh have you tried uh licorice gelato no no black licorice is it good oh you like black licorice oh yeah yeah I mean I can't I can't chew a licorice or anything but the the ice cream is great yeah gelato is really good Pasadena got some nice gelato places oh yeah you should take them I don't even know where they are old town right yeah [Music]
