A Coconut Master shows one of the Worlds Fastest Ways to Open a Coconut (3 to 4 secs) Camden Market.

At long last we finally get to visit this most popular street food & drink stall in the famous Camden Lock Market, where the "Coconut Opening Master" has honed and perfected his coconut opening technique over the years to such an extent, that he now takes on average just 3 to 4 seconds to open one up. Being "coconut experts" ourselves, we have to admit that even we are in awe after watching the "Coconut Master" demonstrate his very unique and fast method of chopping open a green coconut. This is the Lightning Speed Coconut Man........blink & you'll miss his skill. We are very much honoured to get a 100% natural drink from the King of Coconuts himself "Mr Benny Buttons".

Long live the King............."The King of Coconuts" (Video recorded in the Summer of 2016). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ If you watched this video then we are guessing that you like coconuts...........if so, then you may also perhaps enjoy our: "How to cut open a Brown Coconut without losing any of the water" video tutorial: http://youtu.be/DdWlarwpggs -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Coconut Palm is the King of trees - every single thing from the tree is usable. Here are some incredible and astonishing Coconut facts: * The leaves can be used for roofing in the hot temperature to provide cover from the scorching heat of the equatorial sun, * The actual coconut in its developing stage (whilst still green) the flesh of the coconut is still quite thin & soft so it is very easy to eat. * The Coconut Water is isotonic i.e. it replaces lost energy after exercise. * The young green coconut water is so sterile that it can be used as a hospital drip. * The green husk of the can be dried out for burning for heat & also for cooking; the husk also makes an excellent scourer for when you do your washing up. * The outer hairs of the Coconut can be used to make rope, floor mats, doormats, brushes, mattresses, upholstery padding + much more. * When the Coconut is fully matured it develops a hard outer shell and the flesh inside becomes hard & the white flesh can be eaten as it is or can be grated and then be used in cooking or sweets can be made. Unless it is picked, a matured coconut eventually drops from the tree. The fully developed hard shell does not crack easily. Dry and brown, the coconut may sit underneath the tree for months and appear as if it were dead, until one day a green shoot pushes its way out of the shell. The whole time the old coconut has been sitting under the tree, changes have been slowly taking place inside. At one end of the coconut (where the eyes are), an embryo starts growing, feeding off the juice and nutrition of the thick white flesh. This embryo develops into a creamy mass that gradually fills much of the empty space inside. It is good to eat -- sweet, somewhat spongy and less fibrous than the matured meat. In India the Coconut is used in all types of religious ceremonies from birth, throughout life & even in death: if a family member or close relative has lived with you & leaves to go away; then a coconut is given to them for luck, when a Mother or Father passes away then one of the children will plant a Coconut in the ground, it's used in pre-birth (baby shower) ceremony & in the engagement and wedding ceremonies. We've read that when a volcano erupts in the ocean & an island is formed from the resulting lava - one of the first things that will grow on the new land will be a coconut tree - there are stories of people who have had the misfortune to be stranded on a desert island who have managed to survive their ordeal by drinking & eating Coconut. When you see the height of a Coconut tree - that's how deep the roots go into the ground. Enjoy your Coconut - natures true gift - it's come from, very far !!! God Bless !!!
