Morning, day five
0:06
7.50am, day five. Surviving in New York City. We made it. It's the final day
0:17
Happy, happy, happy stuff. Thank you. Thanks. all right so i just left the hostel had a sneaky shower brush my teeth freshened up
0:34
ready to take on the last day let's go all right so two things i'd like to do today i want to check out brooklyn bridge
0:44
and i want to go to casey nightstand's office and just stand outside and see if i can
0:50
see if i can just see him you know I've got a meeting with Casey Neistat
0:59
But really, I'm just going to be standing outside like a dork, just waiting for him to come out and just look at me
1:07
Immediately, he looks at me. I'll just start to freak out. But before that, we're going to grab a New York Classic
1:14
One dollar pizzas. Now, I've wanted to get this since I've been here
1:18
I haven't had a chance to, so it only seems fitting that my very last day
1:23
I try the infamous or the famous Low key with high key, these one pound pizza shops
1:31
They're raking it in One dollar at a time Can I grab a one dollar pizza please
1:41
Thank you We get to try The one pound pizza It's a pretty decent size as well Mmm
1:53
oh my god it's just classic margarita dripping oozing juices
2:11
honestly I don't know why I went to today to have it
2:19
it barely is semi full Now we're gonna go on a gander, explore the city a little bit
2:27
Alright now before we head to Casey Neistat we're gonna make a quick pit stop to grab a drink for our pizza that we already ate
2:37
We're gonna make a quick pit stop to grab a classic New York drink
2:42
I don't know if it's a classic New York drink but it's a classic drink
2:53
All right, we're here and there seems to be a crowd outside
3:03
The post says there are 50 for free, so hopefully we're not too late. All right, so they're offering this from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m
3:09
I don't think there are 50 people in line, so we're in luck
3:14
First 50 people. Amazing. I'm in luck. That's my lucky number as well
3:20
Really? You're taking pictures of that? Okay, so I've seen videos online and apparently this is made from the original coke recipe
3:27
So the original coke never used to be fizzed up already in a can
3:30
They would mix it and then pour water in it and then mix it together. And then with the float, they put the mixture, they put water, and then they put a dollop of ice cream in it
3:43
So for extra sweetness. Alright, we're finally at the front of the queue
4:16
After all I guess. After all I guess. So it's a fried roll
4:22
So I'm like, okay, how's that going to go? It's for a long time she was talking about
4:28
Alright, here we have it. They put like a mixture of coke
4:38
Or like a coke syrup mixture. It tastes exactly like Coke but just without the fizz and like slightly sweeter
5:12
I don't know if that's because of the ice cream. Yeah
5:23
So with the ice cream, it kind of tastes a little bit like vanilla flavored Coke
5:41
Like one of the flavors of Coke that have come out. So yeah, there you go
5:49
vlogger um no not really actually i'm a travel vlogger okay cool and then i was like scrolling
5:56
on instagram and found out about this before you know yeah yeah yeah like you know i've seen this
6:08
online a lot like before i came like um like months before i came place yeah yeah but i think
6:15
I think it's like a staple of New York locations because people would be walking around
6:20
and taking pictures of it and standing in front of me taking pictures so..
6:25
Yeah, I think it's just a day I've been around 100 years ago
6:29
I already did it. Yeah. Thank you so much, man. What's your name? Chris. Chris
6:35
Nice to meet you. I'm going to leave you to it. Alright. Yeah, have a good day
6:39
Thank you so much. Love you. Thank you. Thanks. Thank you. All right, so Casey Neistat's office is supposed to be the straight down on the left
7:00
hell. It's been long awaited. Get over. All right, so I think we're here
7:14
I'm not sure which one the building is but I think it might be
7:21
this one up up here the lights are on so he might be
7:26
in there maybe I'm surprised there isn't anyone out here usually when he comes out
7:32
there's a lot of people hanging out downstairs do you know which one is Casey Neistat's office
7:39
just this one? alright so I should just wait over here for him to come out
7:44
the guy was acting like casey nice at himself because i'm not gonna see it well as you can
7:51
imagine like a lot of people probably loiter around here a lot waiting for him to come out
7:56
and probably like disturb everyone in the surrounding like buildings so all is well
8:04
but yeah this is like freaking this is casey i'll i'll cross over the street to get a better shot
8:08
oh yeah okay so that was the office i just zoomed into um it looks a lot like dingier than it looks
8:17
in person or at least it looks like there's a lot of like construction and stuff going on
8:21
but the lights are on so that makes me think oh maybe i should like hang around here for a bit
8:26
to see if it's gonna come out but um yeah this is like case of nice that's office and just like
8:33
just thinking this is casein nice that's like area it almost makes me want to like walk around
8:39
this surrounding area to see like all like the alleyways that he goes down like all like the street corners all the places like
8:49
he gets juice and like gets coffee from it's so like surreal hello hi how's it going
8:57
You're doing pretty well. Nice to meet you. Oh my god. What the
9:09
My heart is beating so fast. I didn't even know what to say to him
9:12
I was like... hell. No, my heart is actually beating so fast
9:21
I can't explain it. I just thought, you know, let me go into the shop
9:25
I opened the door and he was just coming I was like what the Then I quickly like just turned on the camera as you do and just pointed it at him I was like This is the shop that he was just in
9:46
I got really lucky. Like, I literally just got hit. I thought, let me look in the shop
9:52
I looked in the shop. He was coming out. Got the clip. Done. Happy days. Let's go to Brooklyn Bridge
9:57
All right so we are currently walking up to the bridge I think we're technically on the
10:22
bridge and there's a lot of souvenir shops lining all the way across. We don't know how far it goes but we're about to find out
12:19
No, no, I'm trying to find a jacket so I can get a free burger
12:25
Oh, yeah, like you happen to donate. I have this one, but I don't think I can really donate this one
12:32
Oh, yeah, you can't. No, no, but like, is there any way in the area I can find like a free one
12:39
Oh, I think it's free burger. Yeah? Yeah, it's actually free burger. Oh, thank you so much
12:45
Yeah, they seem really, really nice here. so at least I can have that as my final meal
12:51
then I'm just going to head to the airport sleep there and now I'm off to LA
12:57
thank you so much, I really appreciate it thank you amazing, look
13:02
I don't know, I think it's my lucky day today I was literally just walking down the street
13:07
and I noticed 7th Street Burger is like one of the locations that offer
13:12
or that take the jackets in exchange for the burger and I just went up to her inside having a chat with her
13:17
so happy days we're gonna have this it'll be great if we could find a drink as well
13:24

14:38
serious jelly bellies jelly bellies is that how you put it I had to run into Starbucks
14:44
literally run into it and lock myself in there for so long that people's like banging on the door
14:51
like they thought i was exercising demons or something that's how bad that's how bad it was
14:57
don't be mixing coke and ice cream this is a full warning if you're gonna come here and try that
15:02
make sure your stomach is ready for it i mean it's it's either that or the one pound pizza
15:08
