“Living in NYC during a crisis” 2020 Coronavirus

It literally takes a bomb to get Casey Neistat to use the subway.

Lul. Is it resilience? Most of them don't even know whats going on. Its ignorance rather than resilience.

it's the same in London.if you watch the news when the city has an incident you'd think that the whole city has come to a stand still.I would get texts from family and friends even though I live and work miles away from the incident. I think the news media hypes things up especially if it's a slow news day.I would like to see them do a better job of more balanced reporting and stop creating hysteria where there is none.

Most other cities would react the same way. It’s not unique to N.Y.

I live in nyc I don’t understand why it is so hyped up! Any other city would have done the same!

No person is gonna stop what they r doing it’s literally how everyone would react everywhere any place any time not just “New Yorkers”

London is very much the same. I live maybe 15 minutes from central london, and last year on the same day there was a terrorist attack on tower bridge where several people were rammed by a van, and borough market (right next to the bridge) where people ran out of the van and stabbed several people. I was in both of those places taking the exact same route maybe 2 hours before it happened. it's scary stuff, but the resilience i see in london is incredible. i imagine it's the same in NYC, and probably most other cities in the world. peace and love to everyone, may we live in a better world some day.

who else thought that she wasn't wearing a shirt

Cool vid. Just wanted to say: i think this is normal behaviour for ppl who live in big cities to just carry on with their lives. It feels like you make it look like NYC is special in this kind of situation. Im from Berlin and I know that that is not a thing that the whole city stops working. Have a great day

I love your content Casey, I think it was very important of you to go in and talk to a bunch of people and see what they're thinking and observing. It's a more on-the-ground kind of approach that I really like and admire a lot.

Great video as always Casey!

For the people that knew what was going on, I would say that it is not so much resilience, but more apathy, except for maybe the people immediately nearby.

Dude... the size of that man in 0:35

I knew your channel about 1 week ago and since then i cant stop watching .... you made a so much difference in my days this week that today i started cycling .... 3 rides in my neighborhood and i fell once .. direct to the ground, but ok ... 3 rides, 1 fall ... i hurted my knee but i had seen other day an old video that you tell about your scars and ... thats ok then ... Thanks for these funny days.

Absolutely superb as always Casey, sending great admiration for your art and the people of NY. Great insight on how it really is. Cinematically crafted by your gifted talent. Sending much love from the North Norfolk coast of the UK. God bless you all x

You can only be resilient if you actively confront a situation, not if you choose to ignore it. People not caring about what the alert is about is not something to be proud of, is being ignorant and unaware of their surroundings. From this video newyorkers dont seem resilient, they seem ignorant and careless and I'm not sure why one would be proud of that.

Amazing one Casey. you captured real, raw New York in an amazing way

I appreciate the objectivity of the creative editing in presenting such an impactful incident. That’s the power of your presentation Casey!

Casey you are such an inspiration for the rest of us to think out of the box. It amazes me how you can take the news and bring it to an eye to eye level with the brave people living in your home town. Thanks for making this video.

It's funny to me how much pride American cities take in their "resiliance". Everytime there's a hurricane, attack, catastrophy or anything else in America, that's the first thing to hear in the news. Haven't heard this anywhere else than in the US. What is it with you guys having to prove to each other who is the bravest? Chill out, it's ok to be scared ffs

lol this is a normal response and almost all modern cities react this way, and there was only one school of thought, nobody knew what happened. Everyone was unsure and unaware of what actually happened and thus it makes perfect sense they went about their lives normally.

Maaaan, your work ethic on these videos is crazy. The amount of shots for each scene, and the editing, all made to flow together perfectly and seem like its all easy, but I know the effort you have to put in. Great stuff man. Subbed, and hello from the UK.

Thanks to Casey I get updates of anything happening in NYC!!Thank you I had no clue what was going on up north

I really don't get what the point of this video was. Of course people are going to go about their day. The world as a whole has been desensitized. Not only that, but even for those who care about these incidents, at the end of day you really don't have much of a choice but to go about your life as normal. This isn't New York specific.

Was that the hero 7? Smh. Lived in NYC for almost two years and NYC changes for nothing. Fazed by nothing. NYC stays strong.

Great video Casey! It just goes to show how amazing the city of New York is and the people who live there!!

I mean I feel like that's everywhere tho too. Yeah it happened. Look out for it (be vigilant). Keep on with your life

I remember, last year, when there was a bomb that was detonated in a trash can in Hells Kitchen. There was surveillance footage that looked horrific. But, as someone who works five blocks away from where that happened, it felt very much like something that was significant but needed to be moved past. We heard about it. We took precautionary measures, and then we went about our day. It's not that we're desensitized or that we didn't care about the people who were injured, it's that we know that stopping our daily lives will only feed into the fear and chaos that these acts seek to bring.

I used to live in New York City. People there seem to be quite depressed and stressed up in many ways, especially in the subways, I see a lot of sad people. Looking at them made me sad too.

Casey, tbh this video is a miss. It’s a huge city, shit happens all the time. If everybody didn’t go on as usual every time there was a bomb scare, nothing would ever get done. Now I’m sure all the people directly involved with the buildings in question were rightfully quite shaken, and possibly their friends and family. But for everybody else, life just goes on as usual. Geez.

Thank you for this vid and your other vids as well. I am truly one of those percentages of people who romanticize NYC. Media on TV and movies sway my thoughts on your city and really just goes to show how powerful that can be on people. I've never been but do still look forward to visiting NYC one day. Another looky loo lol

5:28 how deep is her shirt!?

Casey Thank you for making a video that we all needed to see all over the world... the event is tragic.. but it's good to see that we shouldn't always believe or overwhelmed by what the news shares. Life Moves on :)

Casey please try to make more videos every day like you did before. You are very inspiring to me and I enjoy watching your videos.

Amazing lolol production as usual. I loved this.

I'm from Mumbai, India. In my opinion every city response in the same, sometimes better.

When you get a surprise Casey Neistat upload >>>>

I love New York for that reason, it just keeps going no matter what! Mucho respect, can't wait to get back very soon

This video was very over the top

Casey seems like the kinda guy to drink juice at a bar 😂

I lived most of my life in NYC (Brooklyn born!) and if its not this its terrible car accidents, buildings, bridges, even highways collapsing, sink holes, extreme weather, on and on and on. If its family or close friends who are personally affected you run to their aid, if not you say a prayer and get on with your business while still hoping for the best.

Just became a follower of Casey's-and this guy's makin' me homesick for New York already! Props!

I love ur videos so much and I can’t wait for future videos

BRO IM IN A CASEY NEISTAT VIDEO WHAT

The ending is perfect. Showing the police drive off then immediately a New Yorker on a bike ride past is a great metaphor for the whole video 8:11

Wow Headed to New York today had no idea no Wonder Sister was checking up on me. Have not been watching news .Glad she didn't mention it to me because I have been through many of those Crisis in past. But have had family things that have kept me busy. Casey Thanks for sharing and heads up. Also glad everything and everyone was fine.And you are absolutely right New Yorkers are trooper's for sure. Again Thanks for sharing Deb 👍✌️ P.S. She did mention Weather and told me get home Safe 😉✌️

Glad to hear everyone is safe. I've actually experienced something like this first hand. This used to be the everyday story of my city and country a few years back.

"underscore the resilience of people in New York City" - from the small sample of people you interviewed I'd say "obliviousness" is a better adjective. They had no clue what was going on.

Welcome Back Casey! Missed ya bud!

Fantastic video, unique reporting perspective, glad for the slice-of-life vibe

This is the first video I've seen of you. I subscribed after hearing you were cool. Strange first impressions.

Are they resilient or oblivious?

AND HE'S BACK

Brilliant, insightful video. Thanks Casey.

A great message, Casey👍🏼💪🏼

Clearly New Yorkers have no idea what’s going on in New York!

I feel like this video captures what happened ( and people's reaction to it) more accurately than any thing I have seen on TV. That's what happens when you have a great filmmaker behind the lens.

The reality !! Thnks casey u always provide awesome content 🤗 with a meaningful message

Im new to ur channel. I have been binge watching all weekend. I adore you. Ur life seems amazing and I love ur videos. Im so happy I subscribed to ur channel. I hope one day to meet you. Keep doing what u can't......😍

I’ve personally become desensitized to news like that. It just feels like it happens so much...idk

Casey makes a video about a terrible tragedy - but makes one of the best travel videos about New York which makes me want to move there

A reporter at heart, great video casey

“People gonna keep goin, doesn’t stop New Yawkas” i love this city

I found it most interesting with the girl on the Subway and new to NYC, brought a different perspective than those that have lived in NYC longer, she seemed not only more aware of her reaction, but of those around her, again, this was as she preserved it to be...

Been living in new York for almost 17 years now and New York never changes

Hey Casey, Great video. Again. Thanks!

Love it! We were in the airport en route to La Guardia when we saw this on CNN. New York felt NO different when we arrived and we’ve been loving the city since we got here. ✌🏼❤️✈️

There's no crisis in NYC, everything is perfectly fine

This is common to any big city. I was in one of the train were the bomb exploded in Bombay July 11 2006. There was mass chaos that day but the exact next day I was in college. Our professor had come few people were missing. We keep on saying that thats a message we sent to the terrorist that we will keep Going. But do we do it as a form of resilience or just because it didn’t happen to me?

Casey I love The Reality and on Scene coverage of the situation as usual "your the best" I truly love Your Work. But have to admit I got lost at 5:41 LOL. Andy From Mass "GO RED SOX".

Been waiting for this

4:01, does people carry portable tables when they travel on train in NYC?

Welcome back (officially) Casey!

I live on the upper east side and go to school in Brooklyn, and later went to dinner in the flatiron district with my dad. I had NO idea this even happened that day. Whenever something like this happens we carry on.

Casey keep up the great work

Where’s the crisis?

Take Care NYC!👊 Loved the Classic Casey Vlog❤ Best wishes from an Indian KZfaqr🇮🇳

It’s awesome how they are making sure communication is pushed out to keep people safe regardless of how people react

thanks for the perspective!!!

*Zombie apocalypse in new york* new yorkers "oh crap theres so much traffic im gonna be late to work"

Gimme a call when a a normal citizen (baggage handler) goes and literally attacks a terrorist, New York is not special ffs

NICE WORK CASEY ! really good reportage ! I think, sadly, New yorkers are used to it now and realized it since the 11.09.

Good to know everyone's safe💗 love NYC👌

@5:32 BACK THE CAMERA UP for a better view! 👀

5:30 - The Bomb squad confiscated her shirt. Poor girl...

love you casey! stay safe out there

Every time something like this happens more and more people move here to PA! I'm glad everyone is safe.

The thing about New Yorkers is we don’t care about stuff like that we get mad at the fact that it stops us from going to work lol

"i notice no difference in the city" his studio explodes

The intercutting with the news coverage is brilliant: it both emphasizes the reactions of the citizens and shows how overly-dramatized the news is. GG, Casey 😎

Hi Casey. I was in NYC that day, celebrating my 18th birthday in the big apple, however I live in the UK. For me, I hadn’t ever experienced something like that but for everyone else around me, they were so chill with it. Weird times we live in.

Something is different in this video, and i like it. The whole vibe of video + editing + shots it feels serious, professional and has a Casey touch. I really like it.

I can't really see it as a good thing when people feel that things like this have just become a normal part of life. It is very different and I'm glad everyone is safe, but I lived in Paris when the attacks took place in 2015, and there was a clear change in demeanor, habits, mood all around the city. When the attacks in Brussels and Nice happened, it did feel like we were a bit desensitized to it, but that felt wrong somehow. That doesn't mean people are not resilient, we did go out the next night to prove terrorism wrong, but "I just got to get to work" makes it seem like business is more important than people... That is just a gross recap of my train of thought, but still.

First of all, great timing of NYPD motorcade departing at the end, I live to create a caliber of videos on your level. But on a personal note, since 911, I still do shut down when I hear of things happening in NYC or across the county, even though I'm from Urban Essex County, NJ. Keep up the good work Mr. 10 Million!!!

Manchester tho... The British are better with stuff like this. We will make it a happy thing, you guys just seem to not wanna differ from the norm, as it will ruin your routine. Sad really.

How long have you been waiting to make this?

I was in the subway with my girl when I got the message. We just moved here so we didn't know what to think. We just got out of the area asap. Good to hear no one got hurt.

awesome idea for a video. Loved it
