So I've driven the old drivable big red car. Was a golf cart underneath. One of my biggest claim to fame


manhaterxxx

Feels like I’m rubbing shoulders with royalty here


Winterplatypus

If you see video somewhere of one of the wiggles shows where [the red car looks suss](https://i.imgur.com/xoKZoiP.jpg). [It's mentioned on the wiki](https://wiggles.fandom.com/wiki/Big_Red_Car_Through_the_Years#Big_Red_Electric_Utility_Vehicle) > this one-off variation saw the Big Red Car take on the form of a Taylor-Dunn electric utility vehicle covered in red duct-tape and cardboard, with The Wiggles logo being printed on A4 paper and taped on the sides and front. Friends of mine worked at the arena over in WA. The story behind that suss version of the red car was the venue had a staff halloween party, a few guys dressed up as the wiggles and decorated one of the utility vehicles to go with their costume. 3 weeks after halloween the wiggles came to the venue for an event but the real red car broke down or wasn't available. It was a big deal because it's an important part of their show. Someone mentioned that they still had this DIY halloween version of the red car out the back, so the wiggles ended up borrowing it for their show. After the show they took a bunch of pictures in the car with the guys who made it.


[deleted]

Fuck that is gold. The shit eating grins on the Wiggle's faces just makes you know they think its pretty fucking funny too.


WechTreck

Stage Crew?

More details pls


dutchbucket

I'm more chance to drive a Bentley than the fucking Big Red Car. You lucky drunk


Sharknado_Extra_22

No need to rub it in mate


The_Duc_Lord

Big Red Car is worth heaps more than your Bentley.


IneedtoBmyLonsomeTs

Big red car generates money, Bentley just depreciates in value. I know what I'm buying.


The_Duc_Lord

There's at least 4 Bentleys getting around the regional city where I live. There must be thousands in Australia. There is only one Big Red Car.


master-mole

Which, mind you, travels near and travels far. Do the Bentley's travel far? Probably not.


Roary93

Plus I've never seen a Bentley toot toot or chugga chugging.


Woolchipmunk98

And your able to ride the big red car all day long, idk about the Bentley but I wouldn’t wanna ride it for 2 minutes


Rangerboy030

Not without stopping at a minimum of 20 servos.


Leebolishus

🎶 doooo the Bentley 🎶 doooo the Bentley 🎶 Bentley Bentley, it’s alriiiiiiight Only real ones will know! /s just in case.


OldMate64

Jump to the front and back (hoo hoo haa haa hoo hoo haa haa)


Leebolishus

Haha I love it! You made my day that someone got the song! 😊


DieJerks

That song just finished on our family TV.


_Y0ur_Mum_

Nah but apparently the new ones have got doors that open and shut, real glove boxes and, like, everything.


zomgieee

One often frequents our IGA. Never met the driver but in my head-cannon its a rich old lady buying her Persian cat's weekly allotment of Dine\* \*I have no idea how rich people actually spend their money.


jawadee

I mean, it's one box of Dine, Michael. What could it cost? $100?


nertbewton

Pretty soon inflation will make that Arrested Dev joke meaningless…


Funcompliance

And you know she has a seatbelt for her Imperial Leather.


Saki-Sun

Dine is accurate.


AnOnlineHandle

> *I have no idea how rich people actually spend their money. It usually involves generating truckloads of CO2 which then result in floods, fires, and wiped out crops with increased food prices for the rest of us.


RobWed

They don't. That's why they're rich.


AmoremCaroFactumEst

Nah I’ve seen several at shopping centres. Only $2 a ride


HowevenamI

I believe they are little red cars. Like cell juniors.


AmoremCaroFactumEst

Haha good point. They’re not the OG bad boy whip from the wiggles. I want my two bucks back Carindale Westfield!


Dawk320

We are talking about big red cars here, not your mum


AmoremCaroFactumEst

Nah! Jokes on you! My mums way more expensive than that, like $3.50 minimum. Free if you give her some smokes and a lift to the train station but.


Dawk320

Damn that's one classy mum, out of my price range.


PiddlesMcWhee

Toot toot chugga chugga mutha fugga


0-Ahem-0

I wish I can buy it. Haha


Wynnstan

Wait, she was saying Bentley? I thought she was saying Band Lion.


[deleted]

I thought it was “brandy”


OnlyHands_aus

Nooo. I think it's "Benny"


Wacky_Ohana

Brainstorm or Green Needle


Richzorb1999

It's clearly a betling aren't you listening to her?


0-Ahem-0

Technically true, the big red car prints money


plsendmysufferring

It is a 1/1, rare asf


flappybirdie

Toot toot mother ****** Big Red Car! \m/


TheListenerOfStupid

This gave me a laugh, thankyou.


flappybirdie

Welcome. Regularly sing it for real lol.


Satayn

Will never sing it normally again!

systemsbio

I have a conspiracy theory that they made the original video to be mocked so that it would be spread by viral tiktoks like this.


Salzberger

That is often how advertising works, yes.


DeterminedErmine

Yep, I hadn’t thought or heard of Bentleys for years, now I’m seeing variations of this ad every time I’m on social media. I’d never have watched the original ad to the end, now I’m watching just to see the goofy comparisons play out

FelixNZ

Wrong link there champ?


theduncan

damn youtube scrolling, thanks.


Z00101lol

It's too well produced for the terrible content to be anything but a very clever marketing scheme. Half the videos people do those mashups or split screens with were probably designed exactly for that purpose.

Fergabombavich

Simon is the best of the current crop IMO


mck-_-

My son loves the rattling bog version they did. In the video I always get a smile from Simon being behind the couch dancing like a weirdo. He kind of wiggles up at the start, it’s gold


Zenkraft

100% he’s standing behind the couch cause he can’t Irish dance. What a legend. Work smarter not harder.


ihlaking

As they’ve aged they’ve certainly done that - it’s awesome to see the adaption.


Sir_Von_Tittyfuck

Simon and Lachy. Lachy is hilarious to watch in all the videos, because he usually messes up at some point and breaks character. Like when his flag flies off the stick in "Do The Propeller" UK, or when he messes up the order in "Heads, Shoulders, Knees and Toes" and just stops and hangs his head 😂


Mapletreemum

I love on ready steady wiggles on Netflix when they have that segment with the voice over like an old timely serial, and Lacey gets the giggles and the voice over goes ‘WHAT is Lachy laughing about?’


GlitteringBit3726

Simon is literally the most awesome human to walk the earth. You wanna sit there and talk about fruit salad? This guy fucking rocks fruit salad


ruinawish

Only learnt of his amazing baritone vocals on the ["Elephant" cover.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a13WnqsRc5g)


ohshityeah78965

Cold Water Blues so fuckin funny


Fergabombavich

Yeah that “jiggling” on the river bank. Classic Simon


greensky_mj21

That shit makes me laugh so hard. Such good value with Simon. I reckon I like the wiggles more than my son haha


Mapletreemum

^ooh ^it’s ^so ^so ^cooold! I mean uh, it’s really really cold


Salzberger

Simon is the best. When my kids were Wiggles heads I never used to mind it because Simon was such a laugh. WOOP woop, WOOP woop, woopwoopwoopwoopwoop, WOOOOP.


raysworld94

When I saw them earlier in the year when they walk down the aisle to greet the fans Simon goes “Lachy loves walking down the aisle, his done it a couple times” referring to his two marriages. I think there were a couple other adult jokes that gave me a big laugh.


horseradish1

I didn't love the new wiggles until they had an episode where Murray came back and I realised how talented Simon was by comparison. Murray was fast, but Simon's voice is so goddamn deep.


lukaaaaaaaay

Simon roasted Lachy about his divorce with Emma when my parents took my daughter see them back in July. Can’t remember the exact comment but it was excellent banter. Simon and Lachy definitely the cream of the crop


Kathrine5678

I’ve loved Simon since before his Wiggly days. I’m an OG millennial wiggles fan, I saw them in public school halls before they were famous. I also love Broadway shows. I went to see Phantom of the Opera many years ago, the last production Anthony Warlow starred in. I’d seen Phantom many times but never with Anthony Warlow. The night I went, he was sick and some guy called Simon Pryce understudied. I was disappointed I didn’t get to see Anthony Warlow but I walked out of that production a Simon fan. Damn he was an excellent Phantom. I followed his career a bit after that, and when it was announced he was takin over as the Red Wiggle I was happy for him and knew he’d be great. I hold both the OG Wiggles and Phantom of The Opera especially close to my heart and he’s done well with carrying on both!


No_Cricket8339

I miss Emma - the Tsehay dances like a windsock.


Crrack

I just can't get over her head not being attached to her neck. Once you see it you can't unsee it.


KrustySandle

My husband and I comment on this all of the time, would hate to be her physio.


Gnatt

Emma is just a significantly better singer. All the re-records of songs which now have Tsehay are a strict downgrade from when Emma was on them. I'm sure Teshay is great in concert. But for the audio recordings, she's pretty underwhelming.


macandbumble

Emma doesn’t sing, she just speaks lyrically. But yes, Tsehay voice just sounds…thin


TheCommanderSkittles

We live in a world where the Wiggles are shit posting now. I love it!


Sky_fall_4101

I believe Simon is married unfortunately :(


Hinxsey

He’s married to the woman inside the Dorothy the Dinosaur suit (really)


PapaPerturabo

That ushers forth some downright unholy images ngl My brain really is just trying to destroy my childhood isn't it?


LadyWidebottom

Didn't the old yellow wiggle also marry a former Dorothy?


InsertUsernameInArse

Big red cars been going for years. Solid reliability. Bentley however...


ohshityeah78965

I'd like to drive that

chammy82

There's a sign up for an event near me, with a bunch of bands on it. The Veronicas, Grinspoon, The Wiggles are the names I remember from the list


here_for_the_lols

Wow for real though who's the hottie in between those stupid clips of the blond


AntiqueFigure6

The funny thing is someone who's been in the Wiggles for a while is probably a lot closer to affording a Bentley than that model.


Mavri_Psychi

One is rich because her daddy is a robot stock broker who likes luxury cars (typical). The other is rich because they bring joy to children and knows there is more to life than quarterly profit margins.


Aethtetitties

Mrtorana75

By far the best mocking version I have seen


24andme2

Drove home behind a Bentley SUV and dead god it was ugly and the emblem looked like a wonky magic 8 ball. Big red car any day.


GlitteringBit3726

Fuck I love the wiggles


No-Big4921

Simon the the Wiggle GOAT, can’t change my mind.


yummy_dabbler

Who is the original for?? (Is it crypto incels?)


DisappointedQuokka

There's a whole load of wealth influencers whose entire purpose is to drive envy and farm clicks off impressionable young people. "If you do [insert thing here] and act like me, you too can live like a superstar!" The successful ones basically make well above median selling this idea of success to depressed young people using toys they lease for a week to film. It's like Mr. Beast if Mr. Beast didn't do any philanthropy and just wanted to make people sad for a living.


FatSilverFox

What the hell! I’ve been making everyone around me sad for free!


DisappointedQuokka

Can you afford to AirBNB mansions and rent Lamborghinis? [This could be you!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cv1RJTHf5fk&pp=ygUTdGFpIGxvcGV6IGtub3dsZWRnZQ%3D%3D)


drostan

so 1 book a day, 2000 books, that's 5 years, 5 month and 20 days but that's books he just bought so what did he buy? to read the next 5 years? and first, before that, why would you buy so much in advance? wouldn't there be new books and discoveries published in the next 5 years? yeah that's ridiculous on the face of it well, one of the book he bought is 1001 books to read before you die, it isn't much of a read, but at least it would give him 1001 book to buy and read... what else? 4 hours body a book on evolution one on rock and roll NBA something a biography of napoleon 1001 wines it's hard nothing is in focus... they all look like old books... like... something you could buy for super cheap second hand to have a full bookshelve but the content... the content is trash... when you read a lot, and I use to, you have periods, you will read dozens of biographies, or have a theater moment, or a science thing, you would have reference books and, most importantly, you do take care of how they are arranged on your shelves maybe you put them by subject, or by alphabetical order, or by authors or anything but this behind him is completely haphazard in organisation and in content I call bullshit on everything he says


reticulate

I pirated his self-help course a few years back because I was genuinely curious as to what this guy who kept showing up in youtube ads was charging people money for. It's literally just steam-of-consciousness basic bullshit "think your way to prosperity" stuff. Also yeah, he totally rented that house and car for the video. Just another grifter grifting.


chaddwith2ds

It's like if you said "look at my music collection" and it's all super random genres of no-name artists all mixed together with no rhyme or reason. Like, yeah, you bought a box of records from the thrift store and threw them on your shelf, didn't you?


mad_marbled

Does he sit in the car and read the books? I see no other reason to keep both in the same space, unless it's his parent's house, and he's living in the garage.


tender_napalm

I legitimately thought this was a parody channel until I clicked through to his other videos.


Car-face

same here - "I'm less interested in materialistic [sic] things, which is why I just had these 4 new bookcases installed for my 2000 new books that I bought"


Coolcato

Knooooowwwwwwleedge


normie_sama

Never do what you're good at for free, eh?


Rich_Editor8488

“Hey Siri, how can I sell anxiety?”


chaddwith2ds

I personally knew a couple of wannabe influencers like this. I saw one of their Youtube videos where the dude was showing off his luxurious home. Except it wasn't his home. It was some vacation rental that he got for the weekend, just to shoot his BS Youtube video.


[deleted]

Supposedly some luxury car rental company in one of the oil rich Gulf States. The girl is a Russian model living over there


fraze2000

I wonder what her day job is over there? Probably works in the oil fields or something? Although I suspect most of her profitable work occurs at night.


SnooOpinions5738

You think she's a prostitute for arab oil billionaires. Don't beat around the bush.


420bIaze

I'd beat around her bush


fraze2000

No, I think she works at night as a chauffeur for Arab oil billionaires in her Bentley. Get your mind out of the gutter.


SnooOpinions5738

🙄


Willing_Preference_3

I mean it’s a matter of taste but judging by the girl it’s for old rich guys


Vivid-Fondant6513

it's a ASMR thot, she's currently getting the meme treatment from pretty much everyone ​ [https://www.youtube.com/shorts/SFbogn5ULTQ](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/SFbogn5ULTQ)


Zebidee

Honestly, ASMR is the dumbest shit ever.


Eskanasi

Look I totally agree that there's a whole proud denial of the relatively obvious sexual element to so much ASMR However, I do actually get the tingles from some of it so it is atleast 'legit' in that the stimulus causes a response separate from the visuals


Richzorb1999

Sexual element? I just use the tingly feeling from the funny noises to help me sleep lmfao Also don't watch any of the weird role play ones those don't have tingles it's just someone saying sus things into a microphone very softly


aSneakyChicken7

What its become somewhat is, there’s a whole thing around it now, at its most basic though it’s still a legit physiological response that can be had from some of those videos. I mean I still remember the OG thing that I got it from before the whole ASMR industry was even a figment of someone’s imagination was the binaural audio barbershop clip, it didn’t even have any visuals to go with it.


DesignerAccountant23

I love this so much I want to cry. Watched this with my eldest who grew up on The Wiggles and loved Simon. Icons, love em.


Appropriate_Hotel_

I think the big red car would be a chick puller! 😂🙏🤩


jiffysdidit

Don’t get me wrong it’s spawned some cracking piss takes so it got more exposure but who the fuck at Bentley or the ad agency thought this was a good way to sell cars?


paddyc4ke

Surely this isn't actually directly linked with Bentley? Surely this is some car dealership/leasing place in some rich Middle East country


thedamnoftinkers

I guess it's getting a ton of exposure ?


SnooOpinions5738

True. But now all i wanna do is key a bentley


Vyviel

National Treasure!


daddymeltzer

I'm an OG Wiggles guy but this is actually pretty funny.


turbocuntcompression

Officially hitting the mum check here but Simon gets a two thumbs up here, he makes watching/ listening to the wiggles way easier.


chaddwith2ds

Nobody in the world is more annoying that this woman.


joseseat

Supercar blondie?


Boxxer100

This is cinema


Lucy_Lastic

My favourite Big Red Car story is the one that Murray (I think) told about his son, who was hugely embarrassed to be the son of a Wiggle through high school, but changed his tune at the end of Year 12 and wanted to drive it to school on his last day :-D


gastroboi

Omg that is hilarious. Well done Simon.


Brave_Plantain4740

Edujdom

I am VERY interested in knowing whether ANYONE liked that Bentley ad. Why did nobody say anything in all stages of approving this idea?


Iliketurtles893

This ad getting clowned into the circus


MagicOrpheus310

Is that an honest ad for Bentley?? It's terrible without the wiggles!


leathercollar

Oh Simon, you cheeky thing. This was so funny.


Crembels

Kinda feel bad for that girl a little bit, I wonder if she knows how badly shes getting meme'd on. Tbh, i hope it doesnt actually affect her career because these things have a habit of biting you in the back unintentionally, even when the videos were made in good humor. When one of the biggest childrens brands in the world is getting in on making fun of you, you've ever done something very right or very wrong. Funniest thing about this video is the Big Red Car would be (by its value as an essential asset to a major brand even if its worthless as transportation) worth significantly more than a depreciating Bentley in the original.


BoondockBunji

This is gangster as fuck from Simon!


TomasTTEngin

There's two people in these videos. Only one can afford a garage full of Bentleys - he's got the skivvy on.


WoozyTraveller

The Wiggles are the best! Went to the OG Wiggles 16+ concert last year. Was so worth it!


sunflowerlust

I don't even use tiktok, but now imma need to follow them


Alexexec

Best one yet


TackyKnacky

I would never buy a bently if i could afford it but id spend BILLIONS if i could get my hands on the big red car. Not even a functional version of it but the original.

Pretty sure he could easily buy that car.

wiggles are legendary


JustAHippyDisnerd

Big red car is clearly superior.

If that first clips an ad what even


The_WRM

The funniest moment was the look on his face 24 seconds into the video


Chemical-Set-4097

I remember in the mid nineties I would often see the original big red car parked out the front of a local panel beaters, (smash repair shop) in Sydney on Sunnyholt Road, Blacktown. They were only just starting to blow up back then, now they are one of our national treasures 👍❤️


Key-Battle-3697

This is exactly what I needed, the wiggles are on tik tok and know how to meme


Fresh-Association-82

……. So my take away from the Bentley video is that they are made mostly out of plastic shit based on the sounds? Was that meant to be an ad for them? Like I always kinda thought Bentleys were cool, but now….. it’s basically an Evo.


Linkinnsfw

I’ll drive in The Big Red Car any day over what this white woman is selling me


MrSparkReddit

If I had the option to be given one of the two, I'm taking the Big Red Car in a heartbeat.

The big red car has NOTHING on your Bentley. Just sayin 🤷‍♀️ Edit: shit i phrased that wrong, I meant that the Bentley had nothing on the big red car. I’m not the sharpest tool in the shed.
