your wife sounds so lovely and thoughtful. i love that she gave you the present of connecting to your inner child. i'd like to see a video where you sort the box of crayons to match the order that is in the top of the box, all sorted by color family

You’re never too old to draw and colour 😻 Your wife is awesome!

For those who care,that engine he colored in is an EMD F7a unit. Built from 1949 to 1953 by GM, mainly for the USA and Canada Also kinda looks like the Baltimore and Ohio paint scheme

That’s…………… Cool

I have been watching your videos since I was probably about 12/13 (8 years!). As a child I used to have debilitating anxiety which prevented me from being able to go to school or have social interactions. ASMR was one of the coping skills I used at the time to calm myself down to go to sleep. Now I have the tools to live a successful life at 20 and have done many things I didn’t think capable. I’ve been unionizing a business for the last four months now and the amount of stress it has caused me has given me physical symptoms. Watching this video was the first time in 5 years I fell asleep to ASMR. Thank you. So sincerely thank you. I remember falling asleep to your catfish video night after night to the point where I could recite the first two minutes. Your videos are so dearly appreciated and this random 20 year old guy loves them so deeply. Thank you

You're never too old to colour

Earlier on today my 6 year old cousin got me, my sister and grandparents to colour in these little pictures of pusheen (a cartoon cat). We all went quiet whilst we concentrated on doing it how my cousin asked and my grandma afterwards said ‘I can’t believe she’s got us colouring at the dinner table!’. It made me realise how we don’t really do these activities very often because we get caught up in life, but when we do you can really bond over it, even if it’s as simple as colouring.

I used to sit and color with my grandma on an old superhero coloring book every time she came to visit... I miss that, she's still alive - she actually moved to my neighborhood - but I'd give so much to go back and be a young kid again

I wanted the 64 set when I was a kid, but now crayola have a 150 pack, so I bought that instead. Many adult women like to colour, and there's a lot of colouring books made for adults these days, but unfortunately most adult men find it hard to let go of the idea that colouring is just for children, so Mazel to on letting go of that idea.

I was obsessed with coloring when I was a child and growing up one of my favorite two kit coloring books was the care Bears and the Smurfs. Since losing my eyesight I think it’s what I miss the most is coloring but I do love listening to people color at least it brings back those memories even though I no longer have my eyesight

Your appreciation of those crayons and the big box of 64 is so relatable. I'm 52 and I get a thrill buying that box, which I still do, from time to time. 💙💛❤️💚

I could smell that Crayola scent as you opened that box. Mmmm, reminds me of when I was a little boy, sitting and colouring with my mum on a Saturday morning. What a nice surprise from your wife!

I have always pronounced with the "cray" emphasis because the first syllable of brand name Krayola is pronounced that way.

I'm so sorry about your wife. This video is a wonderful reminder of your infinite love throughout time❤ God bless and I hope you and I and everyone meet out loved ones again!

I’m in my 40s and I color. Of course, I use pencils, not crayons. I actually colored your Super Chief picture a long time ago by taking a screen shot from your video and printing it out.

I should market my own coloring book:)

There's peace in coloring. It connects me with a wonderful time in my life :)

When I was in college 30 years ago in a small town, my roomie and I went to the local groceery store to stock up on snacks for studying for finals. We bought crayons and coloring books to color during study breaks to de-stress.

A true ASMR-tist! I had some amazing full body ASMR tingles during this video. The beginning with the cellophane, picking out the colours..... And then the narration with the gentle constant scratch of the crayon had me asleep so quickly I've had to come back in the morning so I can watch til the end and see the finished results 🙂

thank you for bringing up the point of what makes it an adult coloring book vs a kids one. if i hadnt seen that the cover had "adult coloring book" on it, id have thought it WAS one made for kids.

Your wife buying you these crayons is the most wholesome thing ever, I love that!

This is ASMR gold! You’ve helped me feel relaxed & peaceful, & you allowed me to connect with the positive parts of my inner child and that it’s ok to do so. Ty sooooo much x

i love the subtle humor. “man, wouldn’t want your 5 yo. to see this!”

This kinda makes me feel nostalgic because I feel I have come full circle. The first video I ever watched you do was Drawing the super chief so this hits home for me. So glad to have been on this journey with you my friend!

I love your channel so much, I remember watching your old pen videos and dealing with depression video. Still the same great vibes

This guy's a modern day Bob Ross 😂👍

You have inspired me now to do some coloring. I'm finally retired and need some thing to relax me after puttering around the house. Thank you!

I like the way you take your time. Like Brooks said in The Shawshank Redemption, “the world went and got itself in a big damn hurry.” But you take your time.

I'm in my 50s and I still color on occasion. I love mandalas and nature scenes.

so glad your videos were suggested to me again such natural asmr it’s so good!

I found this relaxing and enjoyable, definitely do more of it.

7:56 It is my favorite color too. it is the color of life and the color of clothes that people will wear in paradise!

I love this video!!! Very relaxing and nice to see another adult who enjoys coloring 😍

I would love more colouring videos! Super relaxing 😁

My family and I love to color with the gel pens instead of crayons every once in a while! Super smooth and satisfying with those. Good for outlining too :)

this is my favorite asmr video, I love this

This is awesome! Please make more content like this!

I can't believe you kept that Super Chief drawing. Has it been 10 years or so already. it feels like yesterday. I appreciate you.

I kind of hate messing up new crayons too. They look so pretty and perfect when they’re new. Did Peanuts ever do “Happiness is a new box of crayons.” That it’s not really adult is probably for the best. You wouldn’t want to use up pink and brown faster than the other colors.

What a wonderful loving spouse , gifting you so many happy moments !!

I usually stream stuff to listen to while I do things as well it’s good for the mind

11:17 I think I spit my drink a little when I saw this, you've gotta be kidding me..

I thought the illustrations in the adult coloring book would be complex, but the drawings inside look like they came from any old coloring book.

How softly you grab the crayon box in the very beginning is how I reach for literally anything being 6’4” and 265lbs and not know that I’m “rough” with stuff 🥲🥲

Page turning is always the best ASMR

I have a crayon collection too specifically because my folks couldn’t afford the big monster pack for each of us kids every year with the built in sharpener …just having crayons 🖍 gives me vibes …the feel of the paper and smell of the wax

You do what you want, the current age should not be an impediment to not doing the things we did when we were children, and you are also very creative in your videos. Greetings.

Love this

First watercolors, and now this! You are a true renaissance man my friend.

If this man has one million haters I am his one fan. If he has only one fan I am him. If he has no fans I am dead.

Yes! Taking the win for all of us who suffered from the wrong side of the crayon economy in our youth.

Coloring is a good skill. Helps relieve stress or cope with the day to day. It also helps with fine motor skills as we age, memory and cognitive function. Coloring helps hence why elderly home care places always have them on hand that painting, music, and other forms of therapy.

10:13 I had to laugh at the sarcastically contemplative pause you made here😄

Nothing like opening a fresh box of crayons as a child. Still satisfying today.

i think the point of it being an adult coloring book is that alot of the pictures would be alot harder for a child to color neatly due to all the extra fine details that go into (some) of the drawings

I believe they call it adult because the pictures are more complex to color than a childrens book

The smell of a brand new box of crayons is, to me at least, like hopping in a time machine.

Back before adult coloring was an official thing, I colored Dover Coloring Books for older kids, usually the scientific or historical themed ones. Those are detailed and realistically-proportioned. Dover has since rebranded a lot of their best titles under Creative Haven for adult coloring. I prefer to use colored pencils though. I agree that a lot of the pictures in the book look more like kids coloring than adult coloring.

Man, those crayons look delicious.

Age is just a number after you hit 21, it doesn't matter till you hit 75 and then it's an endurance run to see how close to the record for oldest person you can get

My first time hearing them called weed eater or string trimmer. Always called it a “weed whacker”

Colouring is awesome at any age 😁

Choked on mycorn flakes 9:49 😂😂😂

I'm 53 and I love to color. It's very relaxing!

I never had a 64 pack but now, as an adult, I have finally reached the pinnacle. Thats good😂😂

Great work

Forgot about the crayon sharpener. Great video

Oh look at that hole on the back of the box now that's a hole of satisfaction think how many crayons you can put in there honestly I feel like I would be to detracted by just sharpening crayons in the hole ¦>

This is really good! Would quite like some more colouring videos. For the algorithm’s sake maybe not too many in a row, but still this was much more relaxing than already expected!

Usually ADULT coloring books are a bit more complex than children's but that doesn't seem to be the case here. Regardless, coloring things is for every age and this is a very nice video.

NEVER 👏 STOP 👏 COLORING 👏

I still have some unfinished coloring books 📚 but I'm more into video games 🎮 someday in the future I want to get into coloring again.

It'd be cool to see a video on the car game you were talking about. I think I've seen the one on your gaming channel, it'd be cool to see maybe a asmr league haha

There are many coloring books only for young and old adults, so never be ashamed/embarrassed about using crayons. With school supplies now out (use Crayola, never Crazy Art per Bored Teachers!), you can get a good supply right now!
