It is creepy indeed. Some funky old rock music, you wear actually real pants and you want to walk or ride bikes on Sundays. NALF gets more and more German.
Those boxes are for winter grit. That's what gets put on the streets and the pavements in winter, when its really icy. Grit is a mixture of fine gravel and salt. It helps melt the snow and ice, somewhat, but more importantly stops you from slipping. You find them all over in the cold countries of Europe. Even in the middle of London!
Sometimes, e.g. in Munich, such boxes are also used by the post office as a storage for their delivery guys. The van brings the mail in bulk and the single delivery guys pick their loads up from such boxes. Normally it is sand or gravel for winter
Another beautiful & charming cinematic video love letter to Schwäbisch Hall, complete with fun upbeat legendary 1980‘s music. Thank you for generating relaxing & positive German Sunday vibes to us all.
I just bought my first bike as an adult this year and it had to be an e-bike cuz I live in Bergischem Land. Today I saw a 10 year old girl pushing her bike up our street. She tried to get on going uphill and couldn't manage it. It's just too freaking hilly here. I actually go to the post office and Aldi with my bike, rather than taking the bus. I caught myself going 50kph once and slowed right down - e-bikes can be dangerous, something I learned working in the ER. My first day riding my bike, I was surprised to discover that dogs don't care about bikes nearly as much as they care about horses. Hrmph. I bought a rarely-used, 4 year old model (Kettler, a local brand) for only 940E (2400E new) on Kijiji. You don't have to spend a fortune. Loved the Neil Diamond!
Great video. Back to the 80ies vibe. Superb, good music 👍🏼😏(just hope you don't get in trouble with GEMA🤞🏼). You said in one video that you don't use a lot of footage, e.g.where you just talk to yourself etc. If the Saturday pictures fall in that category and be more confident. I don't mind to get more of that. Thank you for the good Sunday afternoon vibe video👍🏼😀
OMG NALF WTF happened? You suddenly have becoming stylish, well dressed, colour coordinated no more 'Addiletten mit weiser socken'... Might there be a german girl who gave you more then just a few euro fashion pointers?
Nick : nachdem aus Deinem Sponsorenvertrag mit Knoppers wohl nix wird, solltest Du mal bei der Stadt anfragen. Deine Videos bringen sicher eine Menge zusätzlicher Touristen in die Stadt! ;-)
Cool editing, Nick. You are getting better and better. ;-) These containers are all over Germany. That is where they keep sand and salt that can be spread in the winter time. ;-) I loved the music selection in this video, but that is probably because I am so sold that I remember when they all came out. LOL Love from the neighbor state.
I love these corona videos lately, the weird little nonsense stories! I feel you got serious talent to make a story, a little enjoyable cinematic piece to take people’s mind off!
These containers are for thawing salt because you live in an area where streets are steep there are these containers to help ppl keep them free from snow in winter.
Hadn't I subscribed to the Baby Goat Masters RUclips-Channel three years ago, I would not have listened to the song "Funkytown" today for the first time in 20 years...thanks DJ Alfieri...
Bikeriding! Finally!! I find myself continously baffled by US popular culture portraying bike riding as childs play (stylistic device when some mumblecore movie hero like Mark Duplass needs to grow the eff up, i.e. trash his bike), some sort of urban warrior bike messenger thing, (lazy) downhill fun or manager types doing their race bike thing fully clad in lycra. You see this even with US tourists in Berlin being the only ones demanding to ride around on ridiculously unergonomic beach cruiser bikes looking like dorks. No such thing as serious city daily rider bikes (whats up with studded tires in cities??) like in NL, DK and DE. Time to grow up! : )
Love the college senior screwing around in a pre-rec class they somehow managed to avoid until their spring semester vibes this video gives off. Especially the straight fire jams in this video too. 10/10

Adult. Bike. Riding. Oh dear. You sure? You didn’t do a good job on a scooter, how do you think you’ll manage a “bike” (since the other one’s a bicycle)? With training wheels, an ambulance following you with a bubble wrap net ready to catch you? Old ladies throwing their support stockings your way, so you trip?Since they seem rather fond of you...And please consider wearing your Crocs while riding a “bike” - they’ll be gone with the wind rather quickly. Maybe, just maybe consider skipping the bike all together in favour for the walker. Spares everyone a lot of ear- bleeding due to excessive whining. Kidding? Maybe 20%(ish)
These boxes probably contain sand for the winter service of the streets but there is another alternative also. They could be used by the postal service. The complete number of letters etc. a postman has to deliver is transported to this boxes by car and he /she on his /her tour comes back to this point a few times so he /she does not need to carry them all at once. Efficieny, brother!💪🏻
The rocks might be from daycare kids :) In our town the kids are encouraged to bring a rock they painted to encourage people during Corona and make as long a "snake" as they can. Hey from an American in Neustadt!
Thumbs up for Funky Town if for no other reason. Good job, Nalf. Finally, easing off the whoopie music overload. And at 3:31 the real Nalf reappears.

Have you ever been to any US city that is not Chicago, LA or New York? It’s EMPTY. Last year I was on a road trip from Houston, TX through Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina and Florida and there was literally nobody in the downtown areas of any of the cities I visited - except for the major ones like Atlanta or Miami...everybody hiding in their suburbs or shopping centers or in their car / at home. So I find small towns in Germany quite crowded in comparison - except for on a Sunday. Besides, awesome video as usual!
Did someone lose his epidemicsound membership? Whatever, really great video giving me the perfect Sunday vibes going into another productive week at work. Enjoy your Sun- eeh Editing-day NALF!
Oh, NALF, thank you for making me smile and turning my crappy day into a good day. I always really enjoy your videos; they’re entertaining, interesting and a good mix of funny and serious. Keep up the good work! Btw., did you know about and have you tried the new Knoppers bars? (They're of course nowhere near as good as the original square Knoppers ...)
WOW!!! The US Army must be back in Schwaebisch HILL painting rocks!! That is an OLD military past time if there is nothing to do ... GO & PAINT ROCKS!!! As for bike riding ... That is a GREAT idea. However, you might regret it in a place like Schwaebisch HILL!!! It's a real bear going Up-Hill sometimes ... errrr ... I mean ... ALL the time!!! I am already looking forward to the next NALFist film!!!!!!
The gray boxes are road salt containers, if the narrow streets get too slippery in winter, the salt is brought out to sprinkle! Maybe the Americans don't understand that the new week doesn't start until Monday? Sunday is not the end and also not the beginning but neutral. Earlier even the day you went to church to meet the church community or to pause while praying.
I’d never thought I’d say that, but could you please speak up? I can barely hear you over the chirping of the birds, the rustling in the background, the chiming of church bells, you walking all over “Stairish Hall” (yes, that was me!), the white noise (mimimimi-ing) and even the rocks are deafeningly noisy. So please, YELL! Thank you.
Chris Trent cut me some slack. When I came up with it I was still recovering from pneumonia (and fuelled by that evil drink at the Christmas Market - you know that my nonsense level rises when you add alcohol to my regular insanity) and that little town is OBSESSED with stairs (albeit extremely pretty).

I am not from Germany but I am pretty sure those "things" are containers with deicing salt for winter. I might be wrong because there is a lock on it .... it is not like people will steal the salt.
NALF, great soundtrack (you stole from your parents generation, I'm a bit older than your eltern, as I went to UW in the late 70's...) My first impression of the boxes was that they were bollards, but seeing the lock on one made me think of dual purpose, storage... I've read other comments and now know about sand/salt, now I wonder if they are to work as bollards or not... Hallo auf Castro Valley. Re: bike, find one that has under-drive, gear ratio lower than 1:1, cars extol overdrive, most bikes only go down as far as 1:1, I use a Cannondale Quick 4, the low gears help on some streets of San Francisco (and BART helps me get there from Castro Valley) - wear BRIGHT clothing when biking - you want drivers to notice you...
nice music selection! As you already mentioned schwäbisch Hall is hilly. so to encounter glaze the container will contain gritting material. The colored stones you saw are there as symbols to encourage people to endure and fight against corona.
The term ‚Hall’ is actually in numerous of places in the German speaking area, like Halle an der Saale, Bad Reichenhall, Hallstatt, Hallein, Hall, Halltal or the island Hallig! ‚Hall’ is either from or a mixture of Celtic, Slavic and Germanic... or even Middle High German and indicates that at this place, there were salt mines or salines in times people settled there
This video was short and sweet like Schoko Bons. I don’t know why so many people were meckering around. It must be cabin fever. Happy Sunday. Stay safe.
As Wise Owl said, great music! I am getting old, help me out, what was the first song, Fisher-Z? And what was the title? Thumps up for that and the vlog style. Well done. And, also as this wise Wise Owl said, those are grit container (you know, in case there might be a real winter at one time again. The local winter service takes the grit from those and sprinkles it all over the ground to protect the pedestrians from falling on ice). I was thinking about to write something teasing, like "scared snowflake" regarding your mannequin comment. Then I thought, nah, not today. And later you even took the words out of my mouth ("out of shape") … how mean is that, especially when I am in a nice mood. Now I thinking about to leave angry mumbeling like a real germ. Just can't, this one was to good.

Yes, he said that! So I was surprised he came up with this exact idea, even though I like it very much. But you may be right with the tricycle though 🤦.....
I was vacuuming my floors this fine Sunday, and started thinking about the whole noise/disturbance laws in Germany. I was also recalling that I heard that vacuum cleaners have noise purposefully generated in their products for whatever reason. It got me to wondering why these manufacturers haven't figured out that a low-noise model might sell well in places like Germany. Maybe these have already been created and marketed in Germany already? I don't know.
It's like you found all this music and threw it in this Video, just to have some background sound... Don't get me wrong, I really like the music.... But sometimes less is more :) But you have brighten up my day anyway

Hi ! You askey what the black boxes were all over town! The city puts them there and they are filled with salt or sand so if streets or footpaths were icy in winter they v workers put salt or sand on Streets so people dont fall and ice melts! So its a fast and efficient way to store it in boxes and use it quickly where needed! Like your videos keep it up!Greeti ngs from Stuttgart!!!
Do you participate in any of the town community events or groups? Volunteer? What do the residents of Schwabisch Hall do? Do you go to church? Community theater? Does the town have any historical significance? Any old buildings?
Yeah, bike-riding! I wrote that'll be your next challenge in your having-a-walk-video 🤪! Just do it, it's so much fun. It'll widen your radius and horizon, just ride out of town, explore new ways and get different perspectives 😀.

Impatiently awaiting that video 😉! btw - looking good properly dressed again, good start to find a german girl friend......

The grey containers are most likely sand holders for winters when there is ice all over the street. it's easier to have it ready to use on site.
In the grey boxes are little stones called Kieselsteine. When it is icy it will be put on the ice to get grip while walking or driving.

20% Nalf talking, 80% epic B-Roll of Schwäbisch Hall. This was so much fun to watch!
But please clean the upper left corner of your lens. There's a stain that I just can't oversee.
Now you're doing it, too. Sigh.
@@mojojim6458 I'm not in the mood for a deep analysis right now, so yep.
The water segment starting at about 4:25...what's he doing there? Especially at the end of the segment?
@@mojojim6458 As I said, I'm not in the mood for deep-thinking, so my answer is: he's probably using his supernatural super powers to make the water flow upwards into the pipe. It's real. No camera or editing skills involved.
@@LenaGresser That's okay. I'll ask him.
I am not from Germany but I am pretty sure those "things" are containers with deicing salt for winter.
I might be wrong because there is a lock on it .... it is not like people will steal the salt.
It's grit, not salt.
People steal everything.
The lock is on because the inside stuff belongs to the city of SH and is only to be used by the employees of the city in winter times.
We're painting rocks here, too. Pinterest has tons of examples.
NALF got some new songs.... Nice 👌
4:03 Hillish Hall, Schwäbisch Hill, Stairish Hall - no excuses man sounds for me like stairish ill
Stairish Hill
NALF, great soundtrack (you stole from your parents generation, I'm a bit older than your eltern, as I went to UW in the late 70's...)
My first impression of the boxes was that they were bollards, but seeing the lock on one made me think of dual purpose, storage... I've read other comments and now know about sand/salt, now I wonder if they are to work as bollards or not...
Hallo auf Castro Valley.
Re: bike, find one that has under-drive, gear ratio lower than 1:1, cars extol overdrive, most bikes only go down as far as 1:1, I use a Cannondale Quick 4, the low gears help on some streets of San Francisco (and BART helps me get there from Castro Valley) - wear BRIGHT clothing when biking - you want drivers to notice you...
I never thought it could be that peaceful there. Wow. I thought thoose containers might be for the trash or something. Great video though.
Soon: No.1 painting rocks channel on RUclips
He *should* paint one and add it to the line!😊
considering your music choices for this video I thought for a second that you discovered the crazy/wonderful world of "Glee" XDD
those grey stuff on the streets contain salt for the no longer existing winter. it is from past times long ago when we had winter in europe
It's grit, not salt.
These things are used for the salt which the use to make the street non slippery in the winter.
nice music selection!
As you already mentioned schwäbisch Hall is hilly. so to encounter glaze the container will contain gritting material.
The colored stones you saw are there as symbols to encourage people to endure and fight against corona.
The term ‚Hall’ is actually in numerous of places in the German speaking area, like Halle an der Saale, Bad Reichenhall, Hallstatt, Hallein, Hall, Halltal or the island Hallig!
‚Hall’ is either from or a mixture of Celtic, Slavic and Germanic... or even Middle High German and indicates that at this place, there were salt mines or salines in times people settled there
This video was short and sweet like Schoko Bons. I don’t know why so many people were meckering around. It must be cabin fever. Happy Sunday. Stay safe.
As Wise Owl said, great music!
I am getting old, help me out, what was the first song, Fisher-Z? And what was the title?
Thumps up for that and the vlog style. Well done.
And, also as this wise Wise Owl said, those are grit container (you know, in case there might be a real winter at one time again. The local winter service takes the grit from those and sprinkles it all over the ground to protect the pedestrians from falling on ice).
I was thinking about to write something teasing, like "scared snowflake" regarding your mannequin comment. Then I thought, nah, not today. And later you even took the words out of my mouth ("out of shape") … how mean is that, especially when I am in a nice mood. Now I thinking about to leave angry mumbeling like a real germ. Just can't, this one was to good.
Haha, nice comment. 😄
First Song is Pete Townshend

@@user-bj2lu9qt3o Thank you very much!
Would have been a terrible sleepless night. Shame on me, so. Ofcourse it is Pete Townsend. Please don't send me to a nursing home.
@@raythevagabond3724 To the nursing home! Right away! ☝️🤨 😉
The
boxes are probably for underground utility maintenance, not large
enough for road salt.
Van Halen and Maxwell Jump - you’re having way too much fun now!
I think Sweet Caroline is timeless...but then again, I would...
Your journal entries are getting kinda meta dude.
I’m pretty sure you said you’re banned from operating two wheeled things by the Unicorns.
Will be interesting to see you on one of those old folks tricycles
Yes, he said that! So I was surprised he came up with this exact idea, even though I like it very much. But you may be right with the tricycle though 🤦.....
On my bucketlist:
Go to Schwäbisch Hall and experience Nalf set up and execute a shot/scene like the one at 3:01 from afar
love your choice of music!
I was vacuuming my floors this fine Sunday, and started thinking about the whole noise/disturbance laws in Germany. I was also recalling that I heard that vacuum cleaners have noise purposefully generated in their products for whatever reason. It got me to wondering why these manufacturers haven't figured out that a low-noise model might sell well in places like Germany. Maybe these have already been created and marketed in Germany already? I don't know.
I also love Neil Diamond...Great taste of music🤘
Dude we have to meet up! Just nice to see more Americans like myself here in Germany.
It's like you found all this music and threw it in this Video, just to have some background sound... Don't get me wrong, I really like the music.... But sometimes less is more :)
But you have brighten up my day anyway
Less whoopie music is always better.
They had realistic mannequins in the US when I was a kid. They were creepy too.
...and Australia. Also creepy. They are still in the windows of struggling fourth-generation clothing stores in really small old country towns. Usually with a nose or brow badly chipped. Or worse, one blank eye.
I've seen every single one of your videos (Twice😅) This is secretly one of your greatest and I stand by that! 😁 Also: Exquisit choice of music
Get yourself a fit bike riding Fräulein.
Like the one here ruclips.net/video/-7F7rkbJ6Vc/видео.html ?
TheBlackiwid pretty much, yeah.. until recent years, we didn’t have a concept like „dating“. You meet. If you like it, you meet more often. We don’t ring so many bells about it.
@@raythevagabond3724 Now that's a good one, too. Didn't knew that channel before.....
Must be a local thing, haven't seen creepy mannequins here in Bavaria 😂😂😂 By the way, editing is on point! Love your videos
Solid music choice this time dude!! :D
I think they store salt in those grey containers to be used in the winter to handle icy walkways
Hi ! You askey what the black boxes were all over town! The city puts them there and they are filled with salt or sand so if streets or footpaths were icy in winter they v workers put salt or sand on Streets so people dont fall and ice melts! So its a fast and efficient way to store it in boxes and use it quickly where needed! Like your videos keep it up!Greeti ngs from Stuttgart!!!
The Hall in Schwäbisch Hall comes from salt production that was there in earlier times
The gray boxes are full of sand.
I believe those containers are sand bins. The sand gets scattered around by workers when it's icy.
Do you participate in any of the town community events or groups? Volunteer? What do the residents of Schwabisch Hall do? Do you go to church? Community theater? Does the town have any historical significance? Any old buildings?
Schwäbisch-Hill... Stairish-Hall 🤣🤣🤣👍👍
Stairish-Hell actually.
The boxes are for temporary storage of tourists until the next winter..
Thanks. Big smile.
So dressed up 👏🏻
Chic...and strange.😄
It’s Sunday after all. Let’s just leave it at that 🤫
Yeah, bike-riding! I wrote that'll be your next challenge in your having-a-walk-video 🤪! Just do it, it's so much fun. It'll widen your radius and horizon, just ride out of town, explore new ways and get different perspectives 😀. But get a bike with 21 gears for all the hills that might get in your way, 7 gears isn't enough for that 😁. Impatiently awaiting that video 😉!
btw - looking good properly dressed again, good start to find a german girl friend......
Surely you're not saying that German girls are interested only in appearances.
Certainly not, Mojo Jim. Being dressed properly is just a minimum basic requirement 😉🤷.
@@ca9603 yes bike riding is great! Since Corona I'm doing it daily and it's such a wonderful feeling of freedom and fun! (Especially if you're a person like him that doesn't like to be near people that much.)
You need a proper one though, yes.
Hey Nalf, drive up to Koblenz and get yourself a nice Canyon Grail gravelbike!
Haben vor 2 Wochen ein Canyon nach CH bestellt, war fix da. Sohn hat viel Freude daran. 🚲 👍
i liked the vid and looooved the music. your humor gets me everytime :D
Ich mag deine videos. Grusse aus Norwegen
