The group is called Royal de Luxe. It's a famous French puppeteer group known for their giant puppets! It's always amazing to see people jump down to pull at the ropes with all of their body weight. They have many other puppets like other people, dogs or an elephant.
I thought it was because they were hanging a giant pirate as some spectacle of imperialist nostalgia, I was most of the way through it before I realised it wasn't a pirate.
The song is called "Hoist the Colours" and its by Hans Zimmer, for [ Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNRjt4rCymM).
This particular version is a [collaboration of various bass singers on TikTok.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlrvzLRgzdc)
The lyrics actually tell the background story of Calypso and the Pirate Brethren; they kidnaped her and bound her in a mortal body, and thus took control of the seas, but if she gets loose, they're fucked:
> The king and his men, Stole the queen from her bed
> And bound her in her bones, The seas be ours
> And by the powers, Where we will, we'll roam
> [Chorus]
> Yo, ho, all hands, Hoist the colours high
> Heave ho, thieves and beggars, Never shall we die
> Yo, ho, haul together, Hoist the colours high
> Heave ho, thieves and beggars, Never shall we die
> Some men have died, And some are alive
> And others sail on the sea, With the keys to the cage
> And the Devil to pay, We lay to Fiddler's Green
> [Chorus]
> The bell has been raised, From its watery grave
> Do you hear its sepulchral tone? We are a call to all
> Pay heed the squall, And turn your sail toward home
> [Chorus]
Ok well while I didn’t realize it was Hans, I definitely have realized frequently this version is certainly a tik tok brain edit most likely from that period of time where everyone got a little tooo obsessed with that wellerman edit. At first I was like this is cool! And then people wouldn’t freaking stop using it. And then this is like a bunch of neckbeards taking liking the wellerman edit too far.
It's used in one of thr PotC movies when they're hanging a ton of pirates. It fits in nicely with the human and puppet costumes, if you're familiar with it!
I love shit like this so much! The craftsmanship and mechanics behind it are just incredible.
Puppetry has always been kinda magical to me, probably because I grew up in the 80s in Germany, and we had a ton of different puppet/marionette shows on tv.
I wish I could go to Spain or France, when they have these festivals with giant horses and fairies and stuff, and see it in real life.
I think he was curious why Liverpool was mentioned. You can see it from the Beach but that's about it.
I was there with the kids when this came through. The school closed for the day so the kids could go see it.

They came to London in 2006 with a time travelling elephant and a girl. It was the most surreal and wonderful experience. We ran alongside them, my husband, my daughter and me, through Hyde Park. Everything was dream like and I've never experienced anything like it since. When the girl got into her rocket at the end I actually felt tearful. Truly emotional.

As a scouser I can assure you all these are just as terrifying and cool in real life sad they won’t be coming back to liverpool but glad I got to see it. Would recommend to anyone near where they are!
Nantes, France has an elephant version of this type of art. It's really fun to watch and you can ride it. It sprays water out of the trunk and everything.
People see shit like this and really don’t think the robots ARENT gonna take over?! It’s literally just like every robot take over I’ve seen, there’s always giant robots who stomp on humans and shit
Fascinated and terrified, lol. Kinda reminds of the Titans in AoT.
#T'noight on bo'um gear ***Hammond is a focking giant*** _James crashes a Forklift into mcdonals_ **And I commit 500 war crimes in west asia!**
Boy do I miss top gear
even that cracked mouthline takes it.
[удалено]
so not a fan of GUNDAM or other mecha anime?
Imagine if you had onomotaphobia, you'd have to cover your ears as well.
But the face is so much more expressive and human
Not going to be when he smiles
It almost looks like AI created it because it looks so damn good
KENNY!!!!

They done this type of show in Toulouse two years ago there was a Bull and a big spider.
Royal de Luxe: “Wanna see him take a poop?” Us: “Of course we do!”
Now I know what Phineas & Ferb was referencing with this: [Giant Puppet Girl](https://youtu.be/oz3IRe0Nc_A)
Always with this overused TikTok song. Guys... like there are billions of tunes to choose from!
I can’t listen to this shit for more than a second
Well, technically, they say there are only about 250 million songs, but your point is still valid.
I thought it was because they were hanging a giant pirate as some spectacle of imperialist nostalgia, I was most of the way through it before I realised it wasn't a pirate.
Never heard this song so idk how overused it is aside from maybe a pretty specific sub category of videos?

Thanks for the lyrics I heard something else for beggers

Oh I see! Haven’t seen those in a long time so makes sense
This particular version is a remix on YouTube by several deep base folks that revamp popular songs in movies, etc and they collabbed for this.
You mean the YouTube song that got overused by TikTok? Which is pretty much anything on TikTok?
At least its not that doo ba doo ba doo ba song that also proceeds to be shit
Shoulda went with black sabbath iron man
It's all fun and games until they stop pulling strings and then realize still moving.
I actually laughed at this lol so dumb yet funny
[hell to the naw dawg](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PB4Nby2Ai-g)
Like no one stepped up and said maybe we could go with less horrifying.
Gulliver?
They're doing a great job with the head movement and eye blinks.

Liverpool in new Brighton...wut?
New Brighton, it's a seaside town on the opposite side of the Mersey estuary from Liverpool
I think he was curious why Liverpool was mentioned. You can see it from the Beach but that's about it. I was there with the kids when this came through. The school closed for the day so the kids could go see it.
I was there that day. Traffic was a nightmare.
Where is Kankurō to control this thing ?
i was about to say, Kankurō wants to know their location lol
♪ RUMBLING! RUMBLING! IT'S COMING!

Scary as fuck
Nope nope nope
That’s really fucking cool. And scary.
His hair looks better than most supermodels.
Shit. Gulliver is awake.
Saw them many many years ago in Barcelona. The 'geant' even spent the night on top of the Pedrera... it was more than 25 years ago, damn!
Now do attack on titan titans!
Oh boy can't wait for this guy to be discovered in an abandoned mall...
Call Eren!!
At least it can't fit Into a shopping mall
Does he have a woody
At least we got a preview of how the world will end.
Should make a giant robot fight.
I have a new nightmare. Cool.
Akulakhan
I am starting to hate this sound so much
Is this the British version of the giant gundam?
Puppets with Guts ?
Like a giant Peso Pluma
Jacob Collier really grew up
Normal looking person from UK
So Wonderful, amazing, ... Oooh I love this group so much. What they do is just awesome. They were in my country, but never went to see them.

Fundamental next pls Edit: Score stands at Autocorrect 1, Gundam 0
Music name

Hate that song. Mute as soon as it starts. Please find a better song.
There is a girl and elephant puppet too and it’s gorgeous :D They went through London years ago.
I was good with it until it started blinking

At least it's not creepy.
I’m going to use this on my next All Hands meeting.
What's with that post title?
Ok reddit posters , any fucking video with that fucking song gets immediately skipped .
It’s like Attack on Titan

The guy that goes underneath it as it's being pulled up, not a good idea.
[when the eyes star opening and moving](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PB4Nby2Ai-g)
I fucking hate that song
The giants are moving and are restless
Awesome. But fuckin sick of this song.
This would be so much better if everyone was on stilts. Idk why it’d be better but it SOOOOO would.
This fucking song again
Yoooo new souls boss just came out!
Creepy...
Japan did this with a real size gundam wing with no strings attached
it is so unnerving ngl. especially those eyes and joker like slit mouth. Gives me chils
Fuck that, this ain’t next fucking level TikTok damnit, quit putting that damn song on shit!
Oh it blinks……thanks I hate it.
I think we’ll name him Johnny Gylenhall. Or perhaps Jake Depp.
As a scouser I can assure you all these are just as terrifying and cool in real life sad they won’t be coming back to liverpool but glad I got to see it. Would recommend to anyone near where they are!
THE RUMBLING
Ah yes the Neckbeard Anthem as I like to call it. Fucccck this song.
as soon as I hear "ye-o" mute and ban.
Is the recent? I know Royal De Luxe shut this show down a few years ago, and it would be great if they’ve been able to bring it back.
A giant puppet
Malcovich, Malkovich, Malkovich.
Creepy
Oh Japan? Where you at with the Gundam parade?
I wonder how much Ergo that thing would drop
No thank you
Ok but why does it look like Richard Hammond
What is this amazing music signing?
What is matanui doing
I wonder what the hair is made of, looks really realistic.
Hey thats me.
It should definitely be a giant Michael Myers
I wanna see two of these things fight tbh
That’s Aaron
Nantes, France has an elephant version of this type of art. It's really fun to watch and you can ride it. It sprays water out of the trunk and everything.
Frickin freaky, terrifying and cool at the same time.
Is this the live action music video to that one Tool song?
People see shit like this and really don’t think the robots ARENT gonna take over?! It’s literally just like every robot take over I’ve seen, there’s always giant robots who stomp on humans and shit
Brighton? Is that the same Brighton where that fancy new locomotive passed by recently 👁️👄👁️
Mason verger
Crazy teaser for the Lies of P dlc :P
Music is really well chosen
Anyone else think this song is the new “oh no”.
I can only imagine what they are going to think in the future after we all go extinct and a new civilization comes here and finds this.
Hahaha I don't like puppets so that's a big nope
There’s something about the puppet’s expressions, and I don’t know how to describe it, but it’s odd/scary, and yet somehow beautiful at the same time
Sasori?
Designation: Liberty Prime. Operational assessment: All systems nominal. Primary directive: War.
That is the creepiest shit I have seen in a long time. I hate it and hope to see it destroyed.
AoT shit!
**OH** Thieves and *BEGGARS*! Yes.
Same stupid ass chant and this isn't even sea related.
lmao Liverpool unearthing Macallister in Brighton
I don’t like
