You should challenge LockPickingLawyer to go on that bridge and see how many locks he can pick in one day ;)

[WooShell]

I thought you had actually melted down the locks you cut off, and made the bell from that material. But I guess that's not really feasible, considering what a wild mix of brass, steel, aluminium and plastics is in these buckets now.

Imagine being mad at people cleaning the streets off this worthless lock shlt. 😂

I've been watching your channel for a while now and I just want to say that what you do for your city is so inspiring. Anyone who watches your videos can tell how much passion and love you have for Prague, and I have so much respect for the fact that you use this platform to actively improve your city, rather than just complain about its problems. What you do is really admirable. I think if more people were like you, this world would be a better place. Any city struggling with overtourism should be watching your videos and learning from your approach.

[Arjay]

Just think about this. You are now a historic part of this city two hundred years from now, when you are long gone, that bell will still be ringing and it will all be because of you along with everyone else that helped to get it there.

This brought a tear to my eyes. You rock, guys!

We can really feel your emotions through this video! You must be so proud and yet you seem so humble about it, you do it for your love of Prague and for nothing else.
Very uplifting :)

[walkwithiking]

I could only imagined how did you feel hearing the bell ringing for the first time. Absolutely awesome idea!!!

[NetAndyCz]

Love locks are just vandalism barely different from spraying your initials on the monuments or carving them into protected trees...

[praguematist]

You are so inspiring, guys! I love your videos! Please, keep working on Prague's problems. You are making your wonderful city even better. Keep doing it. Thank you!

So happy to see this completed! Beautiful ❤️

[mauriciofernandes]

Congrats! Every city should have an honest guide.

[KoenJoos]

This is so noble, unfortunately I didn't know it to contribute. Next time I will. I keep supporting you via Patreon, because I love the work you two do. Keep up the good work.

Greetings, Koen.

I feel that unlocking the love locks is my new hobby :D

[PvpArchers]

Lovely to see these useless locks turned in something beatifull. I want to thank you for making the content! because of your content I have visited Prague twice :)

[Yamezzzz]

I was waiting so long for this video! Thank you so much from someone who has removed locks from a beautiful bridge in Somerset, England, which tourists nonsensically add these stupid locks to, ruining the historic character and beauty.

Yes Prague is 1000x more a victim to this than over here, but I consider us to be brothers in arms against this. I threw away all the locks but you managed to actually do what you said and turn them into something beautiful, you madman. Mad respect, big thumbs up from me, and you're always welcome as my guest to visit the historic Roman city of Bath, England.

Continue to get those locks cut and scrap them only to make money for all those lost bells. You're the countries newest national treasure

[GaryMarriott]

I was totally expecting this to be a video about the metallurgy of bellmetal & how it is close enough to a load of melted down locks for this to be possible

[CartmanBavaria]

I also donated for this bell. Not much, but it was worth it.

[Altaranalt]

This is so much more than just a tourist guide channel. Even though I haven't been there in years, I still love watching these videos.
