Appreciating Fred's apology for the 1814 (War of 1812) burning episode. And your end game in this vid was superb!

Obama bingeing the B1M was not on my bingo card but here we are 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[TheJojo]

“Fred4President” as a password. Love it!

[benchmarkdivine]

With reference to 0:31, I am here to confirm that the president of the United States of America does binge watch The B1M. I saw him do it.

My mom, brother and I toured the White House during the summer in 2012. We were on a 9 month waiting list mind you.

Just remember that for all its defenses, a 3 year old breached the grounds on April 18, 2023x

[NikhilNandam]

The editor definitely cooked this one 🔥

[jadoyon]

The edit at the end talking about Fred is fantastic

If you're a foreign tourist and want to tour the White House, they will refer you to your country's embassy. Most embassies will tell you to get lost. The solution I found was to request a tour via Eleanor Holmes Norton, the DC Congressional Representative. Unlike most members of the Congress who limit requests to their constituents, she will submit requests for anyone who asks.

9 minutes into a 14 minute video before we start talking about what is in the title of the video. Grrrr

[nelloismello]

All the recent presidents giving a shoutout to BM1 and Fred 🔥

11:34 One kid (definetely not me), ran past airport security back in the 80s as a 3 year old. "He's cute. He can pass", they told my I mean those parents. Nothing happened. Phew.

1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW; you can't forget the NW, telling you what quadrant it is in, only one building in DC doesn't get a quadrant --- the Capital at the center. There's also a 1600 Pennsylvania Ave SE, which is an apartment building. It's a good way to tell if you are from the city or not, if you omit the quadrant, a little shibboleth.

A very well produced and interesting video, well done 👍

When i was 10, i went to the whitehouse (1994) and you could walk up to the main gate and the road infront of thr whitehouse was active. And a whitehouse tour was just walk up and join one of the groups. No prechecks and stuff needed.

The building so secure that someone brought a bag of coke into it and left it there.

[printedwit]

i appreciate how conservative this video is about aggregating publicly available information on the WH, and what you've chosen to include is solidly researched. in the same vein, i'd recommend doing other campus buildings (treasury or EEOB) or the blair house - the last being an incredible melding of historic fabric and modern technology.

One of the most protected and also one of the most beautiful house in the world.
