YouTube Channel Turns Four

It's now been 4 years since I started my YouTube Channel, "neilrbee".

The number of views has grown year on year:

Year 1 - 654
Year 2  - 4,518
Year 3 -  31,165
Year 4   -50,812

So the current total number of views is over 86,000.



















The current top videos are:



















Will Fujifilm Finepix S8200 zoom test still be at number one in a years time or will it be replaced by Moon zoom with the Panasonic Lumix?

Camera videos and Lego videos make up 90% of my top ten.

For those who like Lego Star Wars I'll be posting each day from this years advent calendar of what's behind each door in December!

Not too long and I'll have reached over 100,000 views, will post the top ten to see if any new entries etc.

So big thanks if you've watched any of my videos, if not! why not have a look at my playlists to see if something catches your eye.

Recently got the new GoPro Hero4 Black edition and after looking at GoPro videos on YouTube I came across the project.

Blog turns 4

4 years ago I set up my blog when I decided to take a career break and do some travelling.

So what are the main things I've done in the last 4 years?


  • Got fit for 40
  • Walked 97 miles completing the Cheshire Ring
  • Covered over 200 miles of the Wales Coast Path
  • Doubled the number of views on my YouTube in the last year.
More on the number of views on YouTube in the coming weeks when my Channel turns 4!
