12:12 - I hope you told them that Berlin is one of the top 5 cities for vegans. =) I love the typical German trait of embracing logic and reason. Very little ego in these two, which is a huge obstacle when speaking with americans.
Just watched part 2.. haha.
@@marblygaming Most underrated comment. He called out the vegan movement smh
Yeah... Since I am vegan I have been sick...
...
...
of all the animal cruelty and exploitation.
Joshua Metzner - thanks. Meat will be cheaper . I hope.
@@MugenTJ you wouldn't be able to pay for your meat if half of it's price wasn't payed by our taxes, you parasite.
nika krzaczek - your taxes? If you dumb enough to pay it. Thanks again.
@@MugenTJ wow, your socioeconomic views are as stupid as the rest of your presented world view, what a surprise. -_-'
Joshua Metzner I’m not
It amazes me that people still use the protein argument.
You mean the protein excuse.
^isnt that what he/she just said lol
Divex If you are offering up your body for slaughter so that your belly can be made into bacon then that's your choice. If not, there is no reason to steal someone else's life unnecessarily. Plus, there are so many yummy plant based options (i.e. coconut bacon, eggplant bacon, shiitake bacon and more!). cdn.eatdrinkbetter.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/vegan-bacon.jpg #putyourselfinthevictim'splace
but where do you get your protein?
Jaeshran Reddy people just dont know, you have no idea how much i have to tell people that even the ada says vegan/vegetarian is healthy.
The person who asks the questions, controls the conversation. You lead someone to their own conclusion by asking a series of questions that any reasonable person would answer in the same way. Notice how their body language becomes more and more uncomfortable as they realise what they are saying about themselves? Ed never argues or tries to push them, he just gently leads them to their own conclusions with his questions. Every vegan should study this technique. The hardest part is controlling the urge to bite back at some of the things people say. Ed is a master of this technique and it is by far the most effective way to talk to people and get them to listen. You just ask the right questions and let them talk. Keep calm and don’t over react and they will reach the logical conclusion themselves. So effective! This is one of the reasons I support Ed with a small monthly donation. He can do what I can’t.
Charles Stone Ed’s activism is amazing! He isn’t confrontational which allows people to remain open, and left in a space where they can confront their own dissonance rather than defending it
Exactly!!!! Socrates would be so proud
You CAN do exactly what he can, have some faith in yourself.
It's doable but it's really really difficult to hold back to tell.
Well said
I dont eat animals except meat.
Lol
Thought the same haha
Notice how the thought of what he's about to say will not make sense is expressed for a brief moment on his face. It's actually mind blowing how people see animals as the fking end "product" they get on their plates (I can relate unfortunately)
LOL i was like sir...
@Monkey D Luffy but except and expect are 2 different words with completely different meanings :( don't be rude.
Ikr
I'm vegan for one year now (vegetarian for 3 years). Since I stopped eating meat I haven't been ill :D
I went strait to being vegan I would wake up and puke up my own stomach when I wasn't vegan
Saaaaaame! Ive literally never been sick since I stopped eating meat
same here! vegan for 1 year and a month now~ and more to come ❤️
👍❤️🙏
Duuuude same!
- Are you often ill?
- No
- ... well there once was a vegan who was ill, so it can't be healthy
XD
I groaned too, what a silly reply. I knew a guy who knew a guy argument, it's lazy thinking. There's a site for this kind of thing: yourlogicalfallacyis.com/strawman
C21H30O2 to make matters worse there's also the detoxing factor which can often further confuse people. When you go vegan you might get detox symptoms which can be easily misinterpreted as the vegan diet being the one to blame for that.
sure there are some junk food vegans who miss out on the benefits of a whole food diet, but on average they're still the healthiest. I think it's great that humans managed to cultivate plants in that way, animal products on the other hand slowly poison you to death also today, what's your point?
Morgan Ryan you don't know what you're talking about. We're not meant to eat every plant on the face of the Earth. Not everything is our natural food. But some, especially fruits, are our ultimate food and have always been.
I think that he's right. Maybe he knows some vegans who are often ill, but they can be ill for several reasons - bad diet choices (don't get all the nutrients that they should), genetics, lack of hygiene, lack of sleep, lack of physical exercise... Or, even if they get sick from what ever, people would right away make the connection to veganism, because, when you become a vegan, you are actually becoming only that. What ever happens to you, they are pinning on it. Cause they don't understand. I mean, I know a lot more meat eaters who are often sick too, but you never heard anyone telling them 'it's because you eat meat' (even tho it may be true!) No, meat eaters are always sick because of something els. Vegans never... There are million excuses, but not one valid. GO VEGAN!
I absolutely love Ed's interviewing style. He is such a compassionate and understanding being of both humans and animals.
+Lauraj thank you so much Laura!
+TheFettuck You're an imbecile
It's called the Socratic Method/Dialectic Method
@@TheFettuck oh look its one of you for fucks sake mate what do you honestly get out of trolling vegans? Do you have a thing for vegans honey?
I know meat eaters who are more often ill.....
Are you Vegan Cassandra?
I've been suffering acne for ten years and your videos make me feel understood :)
more like EVERY meat eater ever
Agreed. I don't eat meat and I hardly get I'll. Last time I was ill was 14 years ago which I remember clearly. Being a Vegan or Vegetarian is much healthier but they do sometimes get ill too which is natural and some of their diets may not be the best. Loads of people I know who eat meat get ill A LOT!
gomenma tomy I eat meat loads and I'm perfectly healthy

Cognitive dissonance
They are talking about illness that comes from going vegan, like malnourished, chronic fatigue, mental health issues like depression, anxiety, brain fog etc...
Nicholas no they’re not? They’re talking about how they don’t eat dogs or cats because they’re animal lovers but will eat meat
@@katherineburke906 Read the title of the video: You're a Vegan? Are You Often Ill?
"I'm an animal lover"
* vegans collectively clench fists*
Susanna Danner Me😭
Fax. I hate those people who say they love animals yet they still eat meat
No, vegans collectively go... oh honey... I have been there myself ..
No, vegans collectively go.. oh honey, I have been there myself.. I believed the same things until I started questioning.. I am not a vegan to be right .. but I am a vegan because now i can see with compassion for both animals and my fellow humans who are in the process of waking up.
@@fengmagicgadget2987 I love animals but I still eat meat. I was just raised eating meat. But once I'm better off financially I'm going vegan bc I have no transportation and the produce here is overpriced. SOME is super affordable do I get what i can but the meat I buy stretches a few days for the price. Plus I'm my mom's full-time caretaker so trying to go vegan while living with a meat eater is hard.
i'm an animal lover, except for meat .... wtf 😳😳😳
Rawismyreligion | русский I already thought he will say this but arghh.. where is his logic
I thought he was going to say he was vegetarian 😰
Rawismyreligion | русский I swear... What the actually fuck?
I loved Ed's reaction to that. Like he was waiting for that
People like this aren't rare
I'm an animal lover but I love eating abused cows
The cognitive dissonance runs deep. Thanks for exposing it Ed. You have a great approach, articulate and socratic. Peace.
Random dude Saying it's just the way it is doesn't refute your wife's cognitive dissonance. The doesn't make her or these people bad, but they always come across as a little dumbed down because their contradictory belief systems are exposed.
Oh the irony. Science deniers accusing others of cognitive dissonance. Truly is hilarious.
I don't know if it was very socratic. It felt pretty pushy to me. But at least he made them think.
Ed: "what animals do you eat?"
Dude: "poultry, meat, beef, pork"
This is the perfect example of how disconnected we are as a species.
Translation: Mutilated, exploited and murdered birds, cows and pigs.
I wonder what animal he meant with "meat"
83 year old vegan most of my life, answer: never Ill, truly!
Helen Ndow amazing!!!
I bet you're malnourished. Provide pictures
Nicholas why do you think somebody abstaining from rotting animal flesh, menstrual cycles and breast milk would be malnourished? 🤔
@@VEGGIEDAWWG do a simple youtube search of so much people suffering on vegans diets because of the lack of nutrients due to a plant based diet. So many essential and non essential nurtrients are cut out of plant based diets and many people who have been vegan for up to 20 plus years were forced to quit due to complications. These include chronic fatigue, mental health issues like depression, anxiety and brain fog. Human beings cannot naturally survive on plant based diets, its impossible. And to compensate, vegans must take so much supplements, it's a complete joke.
Nicholas you’ve been duped my friend! You seem like an intelligent guy that researches things! Which nutrients are you referring to?
I'm a German vegan (I'm not wegan or ill though) and I love the way Ed confronts people...keep up the good work!
😂🤣🤣 “wegans” always got me weak
He's honestly so patient and kind.

Their English is a lot better than my German! I couldn't imagine having a conversation about ethics in another language, it would be very difficult.
"i'm an animal lover"

"my taste buds are more important than an animals life"
KFC for the win
yoyobrad Taylor Popeyes chicken is so much better tho!
Fish is nice too guys
So are humans.
We need to eat meat for optimal health, its not about the taste..
I'm a very new vegan, 5 weeks exactly today, my son got me to watch earthlings and that was it for me. I started watching Eds videos and i absolutely knew there and then that not only am I no longer going to participate in the torture and slaughter of innocent beings I am going to stand up and fight for them. I went to the animal rights march in London and to the anti fur protest, anyone who knows me will tell you I am incredibly shy but on Sunday after the protest I lost my voice I shouted so much and it Was amazing! So out of my comfort zone but such positive feeling, I would encourage anyone who is thinking about getting involved with activism to go for it!! International cube day is being held on 5th November - have a look to see if there is one in your area and get involved!
I hope that one day I can outreach like ed with the confidence, knowledge and compassion he has ✊🏼💚
+Louise Simpson. That's amazing! I'm also a new activist. Let's do our best to create change! :)
The Ethical Marshmallow ✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼💚
damn, your son must suck trying to get people to turn vegan, ive seen all the vids and idk.
The truth makes you brave. 🌼
Divex people have been vegetarian for thousands of years, the only extra foods we’re cutting out are milks, eggs, gelatin, and such
would you eat a dog or a cat?"
"no"
"and why?"
"because i am an animal lover...I don't eat...exept from meat..chickens"
WTF THAT MADE NO SENSE LOL
i am laughing so hard omfg I used to be like that too how could I GO VEGAN PEOPLEEEEE🌱💪
Helvidia 1349 vegan strong 💪
I'm sorry but there's a huge difference between the loyalty and love a dog can give you over a chicken. All you vegans just sound like morons when you say that all animals show us love the same. Dogs show us the most love which is why they are the most popular pet. A chicken just stares at you like a dickhead. There's such a huge difference. I cant believe how embarrassing you all are with that ridiculous statement.
Ruby porter why are you judging an animal’s right to life to how they respond to humans?
Ruby porter the comment wasn’t even talking about that. The person said they were an animal lover, and that they eat them also, so you going on a tangent about animals not having the same value makes no sense, as the person stated animals, not dogs
I mean I wouldn't eat sunflowers, roses, and trees either because they aren't meant to be food.
I loved the couple, they didnt let their ego get in the way. Everytime I try to spread the vegan message the person who Im speaking to always gets angry and aggressive. Its tiring.
You seem like a trippy person
I really love the respectful way you ask these questions. Im a vegan and I find a lot of vegans are quite aggressive in asking these questions and I don't think it is a good way to get your point across. However I do understand that it is frustrating when people make excuses for killing innocent animals and that the aggressiveness comes from a place of care.
It's frustrating to be honest. But I love talking to kids, they literally dont cut you off and they just listen. My little sister now is a vegetarian because my mom forces her to drink milks.
@@zawiyaabdi9975 time to tell your mom that milk isn't as healthy as she has been told. It is actually the contrary, she is unintentionally hurting her daughter like that
"The cows would die if they didnt give you milk" I died 😂😂😂
Great video mate. It was also fun to watch!
Joe Haddad he’s not wrong. Female cows who are unable to be milked are most likely to develop and infection and therefor die from it. A simple fact you’d know if you weren’t uneducated on the dairy industry
Rob D They only produce milk when there is a baby present so the milk would be used by the baby cow like it was originally supposed to be. Animals don’t need humans to preform normal bodily functions.
Aliyah Davis it’s clear you never have worked or been even on a dairy farm. Calf’s are kept with their month for three months (average time a calf drinks their mothers milk) but a female cow will continue to produce milk from that one calf for up to five years alone. If that cow doesn’t get it’s milk out of its udders it can cause severe pain, and even infection leading to death. That’s why you will see cows willingly walk up to the Milker.
Rob D I haven’t, but I’ve seen footage of babies being taken from their mother. Maybe not every dairy farm operates that way, but many do and that is a big enough reason to stay away from dairy in my opinion
Rob D

livestocktrail.illinois.edu/dairynet/paperDisplay.cfm?ContentID=548
Most dairy cows get set to slaughter and replaced in an average of 4 years and are bred multiple times in that span so the idea that one cow produces milk for one calf for 5 years isn’t logical or proven at all.
I'm German and I want to excuse myself on bahalf of all of Germany
Yeaah. Same😖😌
Excuse yourself?
*apologize
Same lol
Why
Wow, learned something new today: A cow GIVES you milk. That's right, it's not stolen from the baby, the cow actually GIVES it to humans to drink! Mind-boggling.
The cow will die if she doesn't give the milk to humans -- that's what they teach you in biology class lol
It's not exactly what gets taught in biology class here in Germany but what magically appears in peoples' brains when they are put on the spot ;) I am a teacher myself and I have no idea where the knowledge we try to give to people disappears. Quite frustrating.
Gigantic Hairy Tarantula
When the teach me that in biology class i gonna go crazy and i gonna speak my words ahhh human ur such idiots
Well technically we have enhance the quantity of milk a cow produce in order to consume MORE milk.. a calf wouldn't need all that milk that a cow produces nowadays.
@@thedevilhisself5113 yeah because they'll kill her oof
The way you conduct yourself in these interviews is actually amazing, you're neither frustrated or judgemental. I think the fact that you ask them questions rather than telling them facts makes the person logically think about the situation, rather than being on the defence. Really good stuff to watch and can't wait for the rest!
Omg. The dude that said "I don't know" when asked why cows produce milk. I'm so god damn ashamed as a fellow German. It's so important to educate us humans in these kinds of "normal" things that are so cultural and traditional ingrained into us.
Since eating meat and dairy is so "normal" for us, noone in school seems to ever bother talking about it.
Ed is a saint. I'm so glad ppl like him exist and I hope I can be like that someday too.
Same... I thought for a moment I didn't hear right, like who doesn't know that? He also said that the cow would die if we didn't take his milk 🤦♀️education failed us apparently
MANY people I've talked to weren't aware that:
1) cows don't need to be milked
2) chickens can fly (when their wings aren't clipped)
… and also somehow they seem to believe, that plants will contain protein in about 20 years. But not today.
"I am an animal lover, I don't eat .... except for meat"
Cognitive dissonance at it's best.
Yes, I literally laughed!!
His mind just broke for a sec
Sad but true: One of my best friends went to China in 1999 and had a dog butchered as meat. That wasn't his plan. The dog was in an open market and he thought he was purchasing it as a pet. He considered buying it and having to make special flight arrangements and having to pay for quarantine, etc. He decided he wanted the dog and asked the vendors if they would hold the dog for him if he paid for it up front. With their limited English (and his limited Chinese) they agreed. He went back later to pick up the dog and they handed him a package wrapped in brown paper. He said, "No, my dog? Where's my dog?". They pointed at the package and said, "Yes, dog." (If not for the language barrier, without knowing it he might have saved the dog. It's so sad.)
That's so sad 😭
Jc that's traumatic.
@@dreama256 Exactly, I had rabbits and guinea pigs, I never eat them but that made me question why the fuck I eat other animals. 🌱🌱
Jane Do Re Mi that’s horrible
Lol
This is gonna be good.
Yep it was epic!!
That last German guy was so uncomfortable!! You exposed and unravelled his cognitive dissonance right before our eyes!! Impeccable questioning.
Thank you so much man
You guys are doing an amazing work! I'm watching your videos! Keep going.. vegan world is coming
Why in India are cows sacred ?
Traditions ?
"I'm an animal lover" I hear some many meat eaters say. These people are pet lovers not animal lovers. They only care about domesticated animals.
The problem with many vegans is they don't properly plan their diets or they rush into veganism instead of gradually transitioning into the diet, not necessarily the diet itself. People need to change their approach to eating more plants and less meat.
I love animals like pigs and cows and chickens and I'm a meat eater just because I eat meat does not mean I cant love those animals
@@nuggettz6416 hahahaha, yeah bro, you love eating them 😋
@@nuggettz6416 cognitive dissonance at it's finest
pigs, cows, sheep and chickens are domesticated too!
Honestly I can't remember having a cold since I've been vegan.
I can't remembering ever really being I'll and I eat meat 🤔🤔 hmm
@@jeffcelis3024 Dr. Kim Williams, president of the American College of Cardiology and chief of cardiology at Rush University, advocates a plant-based diet for heart disease prevention. As one of the most high-profile cardiologists in the country, Dr. Williams made news and some controversy when he wrote an article supporting a vegan diet in a Medscape column last year. Williams is crystal clear, in interviews and with his patients, and he doesn’t mince words when he talks about diet and heart health. He says that to prevent heart disease, “the most important things are plant-based nutrition, exercise, and weight loss. Most people will succumb to heart disease, diabetes, or hypertension on the standard American diet, which is why heart disease is the biggest killer in America. So the best primary prevention strategy is improved lifestyle. ”
When he speaks to patients, he tells them frankly that their health is in their own hands. “If someone already has heart disease or plaque, I will always recommend dietary change and exercise. Heart disease has killed more people in the United States than any other disease since the Spanish Flu epidemic of 1918-1920. I tell them they don’t have to be one of those statistics.”Williams says the science shows that “plaque regression in patients with angiographic evidence of disease has been shown with only four methods with an acceptable risk/benefit ratio.” The first two are the Ornish and Esselstyn diets, which are both low-fat, plant-based diets (Ornish’s plan includes stress reduction and regular exercise; the Esselstyn Diet eliminates all fatty foods including nuts and avocados). The other two are high doses of prescription medicines atorvastatin and rosuvastatin, which come with significant side effects in some patients. Williams points out that statin drugs and good diet are not mutually exclusive.
@@jeffcelis3024 Hello there, may I point out several dietary guidelines in favor of whole plant based diets? It is the position of the American Dietetic Association that appropriately planned vegetarian diets, including total vegetarian or vegan diets, are healthful, nutritionally adequate, and may provide health benefits in the prevention and treatment of certain diseases. Well-planned vegetarian diets are appropriate for individuals during all stages of the life cycle, including pregnancy, lactation, infancy, childhood, and adolescence, and for athletes. Another guidline is the 2019 edition of Canadian guideline which says: Many of the well-studied healthy eating patterns include mostly plant-based foods.
Plant-based foods can include:
• vegetables and fruits
• whole grain foods
• plant-based protein foods
Eating plant-based foods regularly can mean eating more fibre and less saturated fat. This can have a positive effect on health, including a lowered risk of:
• cancer
• heart disease
• type 2 diabetes.
And last example: In the newly-released Australian Dietary Guidelines, plant-derived foods are given as alternatives to animal-derived foods, with meal planning advice accommodating vegan eating. In fact, the Guidelines state that alternatives to animal foods (such as nuts, seeds, legumes, beans and tofu) can, for all Australians, "increase dietary variety and can provide a valuable, affordable source of protein and other nutrients found in meats."
Therefore, maybe you could find peer reviewed scienc based articles supporting your claims? Meanwhile, have a good day and take care.
Im a bit confused, vegan or not...your not immune to colds and other diseases,
I've gotten a cold once when I was in the car for two days on a long road trip living off of pecans, peanut butter and celery, and warm water. However, I was sitting next to my brother who had a cold.
I love how you approach people and asking questions without attacking them!
Yeah, it's a really good approach.
One of the most important ones, in fact.
You need them to open up to you by providing a feeling of connection.
That's why loudly declaring you're a vegan will usually just put a barrier between both parties before you can even have the chance of a 'natural discussion'.
Some will even regard that statement alone as an attack declaration.
Passive-agressive statements let alone shouting will barely reach anyone, or even get them further away if you want to truly change their way of thinking.
Question: So when we take milk from a cow, what happens to the cow's child? Answer: So as a vegan you get sick often?
I thought that was interesting as well. Looks like he subconsciously avoided the answer. Does not want to know the truth.
literally hahaha
He made the subconscious connection that the cows babies get sick their whole life because of the lack of nutrients. So in return the one eating or drinking from the cow would suffer the same.
Amazing! How can you remain so calm and compassionate? The way you react to people's arguments as if you hadn't heard that sh* a 1.000 times before....I know it's of no use being upset and harsh. I know I should enter these discussions with the same attitude you are showing us. Please visit Germany and give us some advice :)
You just cant approach them and force them to live another life lol
I just found Earthling Ed. Sent the links to my vegan daughter. She laughed saying that she sent his links to me over a year ago. Each in our own time I guess. You've convinced me.

Kyle Archer meat taste good
Kyle Archer Soooo it's not about the actual subject, but about winning? *holds microphone to your face*
Kyle Archer a debate is when two sides have all the facts and give their opinion. This guy is going up to random strangers and asking them questions they haven’t prepared for where he has done all his research prior to this video. Why doesnt this guy actually set up a proper debate in the future with a learned meat eater. Both sides have a fair chance to prepare their arguments?
Sorry, he obviously cuts out the video where meat eaters have better arguments. Also if he tries on me, I can argue for long time on this. Pets are not just animals. So it is quite misleading to make that comparison. Just like human is animal too. Vegans try to make this as black and white matters which is wrong to begin with. BTW only humans care about ethic and Morales. There are differences in animals too. For sure, no dogs understand why you sad or happy. The reason why people cannot answer those questions on the street is because they are off guard and don't want to argue with a stranger. If he approaches me like this, I will want him to go and then go get a hamburger right after. Only he thinks what he said is so important.

No it's not, unless you redefine "racism"

why would God permit eating meat if it is "bad" and not necessary, or would cause unnecessary harm etc!
We were all so unaware in the beginning

@@freeyoutube5488 well the WHO would disagree with you
I humanely ate a honeydew melon for breakfast.
I humanely ate a veggie sandwich with a garden veggie soup.
And I plan on humanely eating a fried cauliflower and tomato sandwich for supper.
*virtue signaling intensifies*
And I plan on humanely eating a 12oz steak tonight. What's your point?
Where did the water supply for those plants come from? How much pesticide do you think leaked into the environment as a by product? Were petro-chemicals used to fertilise the soil, leaching more toxic chemicals into the environment? Were the vegetables farmed in a diverse environment and not an eco-system destroying monoculture cultivation? Were the workers given a living wage and benefits that allow them to live healthy and happy lives? Do any of these things matter to you, or are you actually a bit of a hypocrite? Maybe you grew all those things yourself and can safely say your food is humane. Great, must be nice to have the sun shine out of your bum.
I'm a vegan for a year and a half. I have not been ill ever since. I also just got my blood test back and it's a bomb. Before being vegan I suffered anemia and vit. B deficit. I used to have to go to my doctor every day for vit B shot. I've never been as healthy as I am right now.
That's awesome!!! No heart attack for you then. Proof number million vegans are healthy.
I've been vegan for half a year and my test results say I'm anemic which I've never been in my whole life. How did you raise your iron levels?
Raluca Ciocîrlan green leafy vegetables and certain nuts. Loom it up on google, this can be fixed really easily
I know.
Raluca Ciocîrlan vitamin b12 supplements will fix it.
What I find the most interesting about these interviews is to see that people are very uninformed about a lot of things concerning food in general, such as what types of foods contain what and the fact that most crops are fed to the animals that are later eaten etc.
Love the way you approached them, Ed, great job 👌
I love how Ed has to dumb everything down for those people to understand. 😂
I think thoes questinos arn't easy to answer at all if you never thought about it. And in your head you know what answer he wants to hear and u know thats right but you think of a way to excuse youre action because you've been told youre whole life that this is the right way to life.
Well it’s good to get to the fundamentals and really think about it. I’m guessing it took about 20 years for most people here to answer those questions.
It’s the Socratic method, to make other people scrutinise their own ideas.
Keep in mind that there is a language barrier
"Do you think a cow needs more protein than we do?" What a brilliant path towards "you can get protein from plants."
or an elephant xD
cows have a different digestive system
Lol they have different digestive system
animals that eat almost exclusively grass, such as cows and horses, have no problem getting enough protein in their diet. Unlike humans, herbivores are capable of digesting plant cells and getting to the nutrients locked inside, like protein.
African elephants also eat about 300kg of food a day, 43.5% of thier diet is protein, the problem is your not a herbivore and as such are unable get the protein content.
@@silureswarrior6045 we dont have to eat grass though, we can get adequate protein from legumes and grains combined. Yes we dont have the same digestive system as bovines but that doesnt really matter because we can still get enough protein from other plant sources.
That Asian guy was NOT making any eye contact 😂😂 he knew that he’s lost that argument
In some Asian cultures (especially Japan) it's rude to have long eye contact so that might be one of the reasons. Or the reason you mentioned.
Lee Mee Actually, i catch myself doing the same thing. Not looking away so obviously, but i rarely look people in the eyes. I look at shoulders or slightly besides them or whatever. I have no idea why i do that, but i just do it that way 😂🙈
@@K3ROKO Yeah in some Asian countries they prefer looking at each others neck
Facts, I'm a asian but I have been a Vegetarian since I was in my mom's stomach. I'm a still a kid btw
@@KaiStarkk you got it right. There was something more going on with that guy.
That last question tho...Bravo man, seriously Bravo !!! So happy to see you talk to people about this subject !
You need to ask them: 'Do you really think an animal is willing to die, humane or not?'
Because no life in this planet or anywhere in the universe would willingly want itself to be killed, ever! (Not taking into consideration suicides in humans, dolphins etc)
It's people like this on RUclips that made me go vegetarian. And im happy to say that I've now went vegan! Thank you ed!
💕
Meat is good sorry for the person who wrote this 4 years ago 🍗🍗🥓🥓🥓🥓🥓🍖🍖🍖🥩🥩🥩🥩
What a nice change to see more open minded people that didn't interrupted you all the time. Great video and I can't wait to see part II :)
I love how nice you are to everyone! The way you approach these topics seems to make people interested in it and not offended or annoyed. very good!
This is brilliant, Ed. Wish I had your debating talents.
I have no idea how you stay so calm and patient watching their answers just makes me so mad inside, so much respect
Thanks for all your activism, Ed. You have an amazing gift and you're using it right.
I'm sorry to say this but they almost sound like 5 year old's when you asked them about the cows milk at 11:07 .
I am from germany as well and almost ashamed to see how little these guys know about the industry and nutrition 🙈😅 but you did a good job! lots of love for you and all the animals out there ❤️❤️
Charles22 -They were good sports though and answered honestly and thoughtfully.
Ahh, noch einer im Bunde, sehr schön mein Freund! :-)
Charles22 ich reg mich so über die auf holy
und über die schreckliche englische ausprache lol
*aussprache
How do you introduce yourself when you approach those people? They always seem so comfortable and willing to answer your questions! :) Many people would get defensive right away :/
8xtl8 Just ask nicely if you could ask them some questions about animals. :) Many people refused to be interviewed on camera.
shoe laces then yell at them, whichever works to make the world a better place 😂
shoe laces you do that 👍. They hardly do anything for animals anyway.
I love your patience and knowledge, Ed. It is exactly the approach that'll change people's perceptions. Thank you x
I commend those that were interviewed forgiving of their time. I could honestly see them digging deep inside themselves and that aha moment hit them. Fingers crossed it sunk in.
Great video. Keep up the great work.
Can't wait to see the rest! Always love your approach :)
thank you :)
I rarely watch longer videos without even pausing them but it never ceases to amaze me how you approach people and patiently wait until they fall on their own sword. You are a legend Ed! ❤️
Yo those germans are so annoying to me lol (I'm german btw)

Das geht aber noch um einiges schlimmer
😂ja man
I'm binge watching these videos of yours... it's not only very informative but ALSO so entertaining watching people come to the realization of how non-sense are the so called tradition of exploring animals.
Love this guy, the way he speaks with such respect and calmness.
He's my hero💕 great work!
He's so respectful! I love this!
I don't like when people bring up religion when trying to defend their eating meat. Based on my knowledge, God allowed us to eat animals, He didn't create them for us to eat. A simple look at the book of Genesis will show that in the garden of Eden, no animals would harm or were harmed. Eden was considered Heaven on earth, so in a perfect world no one would eat meat. Love your neighbour as yourself, even if your neighbour happens to walk on all fours.
The fact that people use a book of fiction to argue a point is funny.
Its just an argument you can use to make this people thinking about. The point in this situation is thats a lot of people believe in god and say they are christians, but they just like the salvation part.
@Free Newman Interesting. I'm not a Christian and haven't read the Bible, but just looked up Leviticus 11 and was surprised by the long and specific lists of ok and not ok animals to eat. Wonder who actually came up with that at the time and the reasoning behind it (i.e their internal logic).
God is that wich connects us all. Satan is that wich seperates. Satan is the ego , satan is you. If you'd live in heaven ,and thus with god you'd literally see all animal individuals as yourself and would not be able to hurt them ,unless when your life depends on it. That IS satan's job ; making sure your individual life survives, in order to do this we have to be able to believe we are above other individuals, but LIVING in that soace ,in that convictions creates wicked men in spiritual places.
It's ya Boi It's ya Boi I am a Christian who loves animals and who uses God's Word as my standard for life and I wan to say that Jesus ate fish after His resurrection and I have no clue if we will eat meat in heaven. I think we dont have to eat meat on earth but I do believe God has ordained mankind to eat meat. He told Noah the clean animals were for food besides the plants. He sent ravens to send Elijah meat and bread in the morning and evening. God instructed the Israelites to sacrifice animals for the cleansing of their sins every year and God gave us His own precious Son Jesus who is also called the Lamb of God.
This was so amazing and I could see the gears turning with the people you were talking to! I love how you just ask them questions and let them say it. You can tell they feel weird about what they are saying. SO AMAZING!
man, what a great way to lead these chats! Go Ed!
"I'm an animal lover. I never eat meat, except of chicken, cows..." XD what LOL
your approach is amazing and 100% nonthreatening it seems you are able to reach much deeper levels just by asking questions in this way! You aren't condescending at all, but you are leading them towards making the connection. spoken very eloquently! great job brother!
You always know what to ask and you always have the best answers, thanks for educating these people Ed ✌️
This is the biggest thing that baffles me! People who are vehement "animal lovers" who eat meat? I just don't get it! You approached this in such a kind, respectful & disarming manor! :o)
sasha louise there are obviously differences in how human treat different animals. Humans are animals too to start with. Pets are animals that we used as companions. Other animals are used for transportation or consumptions or as a visual enjoyments. Some animals we treat as enemies. It is so simple to answer those questions and yet people think this is the best arguments for vegans LOL
Why don't you get it? Logic not your thing?
sasha louise some animals are dicks and deserve to die ....... See what i mean
I've just found you and you're inspiring!! Thank you for going out into the streets and making people think about what they're eating!
Love and admire what you do , Ed! I think it is AMAZING how ever since I stopped eating animals I have not needed to pay a visit to the hospital, and I feel better than ever!
Ed, I just want to commend you on your interview style. You and James Aspley are the best at it because you talk to others in a compassionate and understanding way and at the same time get them to think outside the box. Peace to you x
9:31 ...does the population know nothing whatsoever about nutrition? And 11:15 ...do people think cows make milk for us? Really? This is why education matters. Great work as usual, Ed :)
Thu Nell Ⓥ Oh my goodness.
So hard to watch, yet I couldn't stop watching. Your questions, responses and body language are perfect to provoke thought.
The interviewer is so patient and humble !
Amazing! Amazing! I just love the way you question those people. Cause they start to think about those questions. And often times they get speechless cause they know you are right. Thumbs up! Keep going.
Why love one 🐶 and eat the other 🐷
#GOVEGAN 🌱🌱
you're right, why love one and eat the other??
so, i started eatin em' both.
hope ur happy
Divex do some research lol. Your funeral to ⚰️ mmmm nom nom nom
Divex seriously, some research on the topic that your commenting on.....!
Westcliff GoPro All the vegans saying ban slaughterhouse ok so you're against killing animals for humans but ok with killing millions off dogs and cats that rely on meat
Vegan logic
Who the fuck wants to live that long anyway?
I''m sorry but i'll take eating meat over a long life anyday.
Man the guilt with that doctor was real. Too bad he wasn't taught nutrition. Hope he makes the connection, well done Ed 🌱🌱
Ed you have a particularly polite and intelligent manner of making the general public look incredibly dim. Keep up the fight ❤️
“People who are wagon.”
Apparently, I’m wagon.
He is german and apparently, he doesn’t know how to pronounce vegan. xD
@@milly2142 Learning a language is very challenging, pronunciation takes quite some time to perfect
@@vermillionmaybe4980 yeah absolutely! I didn't mean to offend anyone. It was funny, tho, because as a german you know the typical mistakes Germans make. 😂
It’s an accent :) haha
@@jackjacobs9846 oh really?! Embarrassig for me lol
You are so good at this Ed! Thank you for the work you do
I love these videos so much! They really help me to answer people's questions and also to ask them the right questions without offending them. Thank you so much for these videos ❤️❤️❤️
Omg.. that wake's me up again. That humans know so less about the industries and what's happening every time on these poor animals!
We have to do so much to informate them. Your work is amazing ed!!! ♥️
Sarah Angelina Yes we need to inform them as vegans. But also humans are fundamentally assholes in animal liberation regard. You show them the reality but they dont accept the reality, like reality is something accepted or not. If it was happening to them they would beg us for their rights but it is happening to "SOMETHING" they dont give a fuck.
Don't think I would want that guy as my doctor with his limited knowledge of nutrition - plus he rarely makes eye contact - maybe that's a cultural thing too - or he finds your questions too hard and probing at the truth of the matter. Loved the German guys and the lovely couple. Must be very rewarding doing this kind of vox pop stuff - I'm willing to give it a go sometime soon. Do you have some kind of training programme in this Socrating method of questioning people about their lifestyle and dietary choices/ I'd like to attend. x
Robyn Daniels Sadly the majority of doctors and medical professionals don't acquire much knowledge in nutrition at all. 20 hours of nutritional education, give or take. That's all.. Which makes no sense honestly. You would think it makes sense to have that training, y'know 💁🏻♀️
grimmscythe f
ruclips.net/video/oW682wH7078/видео.html He posted this video after I messaged him on facebook about getting into it. He also has a podcast on Soundcloud.
The rare eye contact is for sure a cultural thing. And about doctors' nutritional knowledge, I'd say that here in Hungary the medical university is difficult enough and it takes almost 10 years for someone to become a doctor or surgeon etc, I think it is not their task to give nutritional advice. There are assigned professional for that, they study nutrition for 5 years or more at university, and they practice at hospitals and clinics.
+Robyn Daniels. You may not get a reply here. He puts an email in the description specifically for questions and tips, which is: hello@earthlinged.com.
I love him so much. He is just so real and calm and just makes you think. He keeps it so simple.
I just discovered your videos Ed - all the love for what you’re doing 💕✌🏻🌱💪🏻
Excellent questions. The "Doctor" looked like he had just woken up to the realisation.
Great work again Ed.
+mabr82 thank you for the feedback :)
Earthling Ed I'd say it's the best video I've seen in a while. You can see the realisation from the German guys and the US couple .
Fantastic stuff.
I'm a new vegan so this stuff (you/Joey Carbstrong/James Aspey) is so motivational.
I'm really keen to be an activist but I don't have the patience. I think I'd burn out after a week! I'd just tell everyone to piss off 😂
Been Wegan 3 years and haven't been sick yet. Also lost 45 pounds, have no more chronic joint pain, severe allergies or acne to mention a few. I'm sick AF tho.
I, as a german, knew from the biginnig that those two are germans! :D That's our typical englisch accent and you hear it clearly from those two... :-) Anyway, GO WEGGAN!
Hans Killuminati I love your sense of humor LOL!
1:07 I cringed at “animal lover”
I really loved the way you ask people questions and the thing that you lead them to think about their wrong answers. Good job!
wegan
Aarthémuse wagon
😂
Aarthémuse I was thinking the same thing! Every time he said it I giggled a little.
😂
from the second those two started talking i could tell they were german and obviosly he couldnt quite figure out how to pronounce it in english
"Are you often ill?" ... "no" 😂🙌🏼
Amazing video as always my friend ❤️
Well done for staying so calm. I'm not sure I would :o
It's been 3 years that i haven't caught a cold and I've spent this whole time with no illnesses. Now I used to catch a cold at least 6 times a year since childhood.it was even worse when i was a kid actually.
And yup it's been three years that I've gone vegan:)
