Buzzfeed is actually spending their Disney Princess quiz money on actually cool, creative work. Keep this series online forever please.

[piscesmoon]

i absolutely love these miniature re-enactments of strange happenings! plz keep the stories (and minis) coming

[johnr]

I was 8 when Watergate broke. I’ve studied and followed politics for much of my life but I didn’t know I’ve been missing miniature re-enactments all along. Well done!

[mindybee]

Strongly recommend the movie 'All the President's Men' to anyone born in the Internet age! We watched it in my high school, and it is absolutely wild to see the work the reporters had to go through to connect the dots on this case, before the days when every political advisor was well known and most of this information was online.

[jasonaich]

Your miniature work is so well done! Such a unique and engaging story telling element… the miniatures make the story all the more interesting. And now you have a set of Presidential miniature assets for future stories 😊

I’m feeling inspired to get back into scale models and miniatures, thank you for producing such creative content 🤩

[leo]

So disappointed she didn’t even mentioned Forrest Gump’s invaluable participation in the discovery of the guys at Watergate.

[NinjaSoulMasamune]

Seeing her putting up the small set is so cool!

[ky-gpsz]

I’ve always wanted to untangle the watergate scandals through miniatures!

[rebeccaroxx]

The set she builds is amazing! I really enjoy these small sets and the story that goes with it. I watch for her videos every week! 😉😎💕

[katieb]

This is so amazing!! I love her and her miniatures, so informative and to the point but still interesting.

[mindybee]

Shout out to the security guard who actually did his job correctly!!
I feel like every true crime case involves law enforcement who seemed to just let obvious clues go by, but this guy actually paid attention and DID SOMETHING. Thank you, Mr. Wills 🫡

[sylvanus]

Well done! I enjoy watching the cases in mini while also learning about these past transgressions.

[SheikTV]

Theres this famous (or infamous) late 70’s political scandal case in Puerto Rico’s History called “El caso del Cerro Maravilla”. aAssassinations, cover ups, political scandal. I’d love to see that in this format.

Good work 👏🏻

[staceypopBTS]

Phenomenal work. My 25 year old daughter watched and learned a great deal. Adorable miniatures.

[caylumhenderson]

Thank you for putting in a lot of effort for these videos they’re great in my opinion!

[lukeg]

Well done once again! Few creators put this much work into their content. Keep supporting Carol!

[bettysmith]

keep em coming Carol! Love these videos

[mhewwariya]

Carol and Matt are now my favourite BUN hosts. Please keep more of them coming. Thank you:)

[jayeharrison]

These are so captivating to me. Thank you so much.

[skwerwl]

Using gold buttons as flag bases? Nice. **adds notes to my miniatures ideas book**

Would it be mean to ask you to cover H.H. Holmes? I'd love to see what you'd do with a crazy hotel setup.
