Yeah, I'm 100% European as well, but my people were not colonizers. They were Slavs.
I'm 96% Coloniser and 4% Slave
I come from colonizers into America from 1600s
It doesn't matter to anyone who's actually use the word "colonizer". If you're visibly of European descent that's good enough for them.
Slavs colonised as well. Russians are Slavs and colonised most of what is now Russia and Central Asia. I guess you mean didn't colonise Africa or North or South America.
My grandfather is a slav as well
Sometimes one wonders about the history knowledge, like when Americans with parents from Latin America are shocked to have some Iberian peninsula, some, some African and some Native American... One would thing that shouldn't be totally unexpected. " Ibreran... what is that?! mom, I'm not white! I thought we were Spanish!"
EDIT: Sorry Americans! I know most of y'all know a lot more, that was the worst case. :) No offense! But the video was funny!
I loved how he poked fun at so many of the DNA reaction videos. People read way too much into some small region they may have ancestors from. Or how a large region supposedly affects their personality or taste in food or whatever. It gets ridiculous.
Language Simp is hilarious and very good at parody, I'm so happy for this "crossover"
genetics do play a role in taste tho, look into cilantro.
ohh no, I literally checked this DNA results video yesterday, and I was thinking about your reaction, I'm not kidding lol
That was fun, specially with your reaction in combination.
DNA tests only go back about 8 generations so he could be something other than European before then.
True👍🏿 8 generations = 256 ancestors. And you don't inherit DNA from all your ancestors
well, if he has Neanderthal % - this was for sure more the 8 generations ago
The haplogroups would show that.
Ohhhh that makes sense, thanks genuinely thanks for clarifying the greater London result
The same probably also applies to NRW which contains the biggest agglomerations in Germany.
Language simp is great. Enjoyed this reaction 👍
As a Mexican I thought I would be like 60-89 % Native American, nope 12%, sad day for me.
Are you from the north of Mexico?
What part of Mexico are you from?
most modern mexicans have a low quantity of native dna, the reason why they look darker is because southern europeans such as spanish and portuguese, italians are a little bit darker too compared to northern europeans, this makes sense
@@GenericUsername1388 Yes
@@GenericUsername1388 yes we are from the north
**calls his mom**
“Did you get my text about the refrigerator?”
😂 💀
Well, he made a mistake speaking German. It's "Ich bin Deutscher." Do not use "ein" before Deutscher.
That was funny and fun to watch...😅
That was so much fun to watch
I did 23 and me and got very general results (British isles and Scandinavia etc ). I redid my test with Ancestry and got detailed DNA results which matched with my documented history. One surprise was 21% Irish showed up - I always thought my father was 100% Scottish. People used to say that I look Irish, but I dismissed it thinking that they confused my Scottish with Irish. Well more research found that my paternal grandmother was Irish on both sides. My paternal grandparents met and married when in service to the Laird of Butte (Western isles, Scotland), but all Esther's ancestors came from Ireland during the potato famine 1850's. I love how DNA supports and reveals family history. Thanks for a funny video
You wanna know how many US-onians of European ancestry have larger percentages of German?!! lol, More than you think, I would personally say 60-70% of European descent in the US are of German ancestry, I myself am at least an 1/8th, my great-grandmother was fullblood German, though she was born and raised in the States, she was from a town where basically their whole village in Germany immigrated to the States but kept everything German in the town and rarely if ever married and had kids outside the community (my great-grandmother was one of the first), and they WERE NOT AMISH!!!! I Swear they weren't, lol
I’m going to tell my sister that we’ve been pronouncing her name wrong. 😂 Ang-a-lah?
😂 I already was a fan of both of your channels. Fun video.
My heritage got my saxon-german genes the other way round. I'm German from Saxony so my genes are from the people that went over to England as Anglo-Saxons. So they said I'm 70%English😅. No it's the opposite the English are 70% my germanic folks. Ancestry got it right though. They detected even the correct region. The rest of My heritage was also correct.
This was the funniest reaction ever 😂😂😂
But he wasn't sarcastic at all, he was just being humorous!
He was spot on he is.
The good thing about the Germans is that they fought against slavery in the United States. Not to mention, a lot of popular American beer brands like Yuengling, Budweiser, and Miller have German roots.
How do you know they fought slavery?
Lots of German descended families in SC didn't fight against slavery
@@stirlingmoss9637 It is called historical records
Why do none of these people even question the concept of "ethnicity"? Why do they repeat the marketing line "where I come from"? Are we all now just mindless consumers without any ability to ask hard questions?
His ethnicity is blindingly obvious, Caucasian. White. There is no fixed location due to migration over millennia with associated Haplotype shifts. I, too, am North Western European 99.8% recently from the British Isles, say, at minimum 1000 years, and Europe at least 10,000 years.
@@stirlingmoss9637 Caucasian. White. is not an ethnicity - it is "race" - whatever that is - he is heavily depigmented as is common for people from Europe for the last several last millenia, but there are also plenty of depigmented people who have no European descent.
@@ChociewitkaThis just proves race is more than skin tone. Which is obvious…
That was fun 😂
These tests, of course, rely on self-declaration. 23andMe says I have ancestry in the city I live in because I told them I'm from there (which isn't the same as having ancestry there)!
Fun!!!
Wow! I'm surprised that he got communities for Italian and Ashkenazi Jewish, even though both of those ethnicities are under 2%.
LOL....I am Canadian and I don't like Toronto either.
I'm still in North-west Europe. Feels quite "third world" these days!
I should do mine. I have pretty much traced a lot of my ancestry back hundreds of years. I KNOW where most of my ancestors have been for the last thousand years or so. I wonder if those tests would get it right.
I'm 100% a Celtic/North European 'American'. I ended 400 years of colonization by emigrating to The Netherlands.😅 stopping the cycle!
i really enjoy this kind of videos.. but i am kinda always comfused when ppl say 'i m white'.. isnt the correct term caucasian? for exaple i was born in Kazakhstan,so is my father(but he is considered pontiak , its the ppl born near Caucasus that are desendance from the greeks in that area) and my mom was born in Uzbekistan but she is considered Russian (because her parents wore born near Moscow) soooo i m not really sure how these test shows u the DNA history of your... because techically i am Asian but i look like a typical south European woman..
No, "Caucasian" is an old and outdated racist term (as in used by "racial science") that people need to stop using. In reality it only refers to people from the actual Caucasus (Georgia/Armenia/Azerbaijan etc), which 95% of white people are not.
👍👍
So funny.
Human ancestors were all colonizers. People have always moved from one place to another, looking for a better place.
I’m 98 percent brush isles , 2 percent German
More interesting with family trees with NAMES and in many cases occupations from churchbooks and tax registers in sweden.
My family have a tree spanning almost 700 years back and my family is mainly swedish norwegian and some danish blood and mostly military and merchant.
dna is the lazy ppls thing..
DNA testing isn't lazy. In fact, it's the most advanced way to conduct genealogical research and overcome gaps in the paper-trail.
@@ProfessionalGenealogistReacts i had a ancestor in the 1600 named Johannes fighting in the swedish army ..thats facts.. i now alot of that man where he fighted lived even the House and who he married and the kids and so on extensive detective work with REAL live documents that aint digital from ur sofa
Knowing oh im "5% this and that blood because sometimes for over +2000 years ago some unknown relative probably was a roman slave or something ..and bla bla is real lazy and kind of meaningless information.
"
As suspected...you are dwindling DNA tests down to their most genealogically insignificant portion - ethnicity admixtures. If people only use the ethnicity admixtures, then that is lazy. But at the same time, your argument is lazy, because you aren't taking into consideration the DNA matches and how that has completely changed genealogy.
Not every country still has records going too far back
The test results are only as good as the database. If countries like France don't allow DNa testing the results will be squiffy.
😂
Just to be clear, ethnicity says nothing about your skin color. The DNA companies can't tell from someone's DNA what skin color they have, let alone know the colors of the millions of ancestors of everyone who gets tested. That is impossible! Over the centuries, people from all walks of life have migrated to all corners of the world, regardless of color. Those people lived, ate, slept and mixed together. Nothing has changed in current times.
Colonization and slavery have always existed, they were tribal and religious wars. It had nothing to do with black or white at all. It wasn't until 400 years ago during colonial times that skin color became important in America and South Africa.
Europe itself has always been (and still is) a melting pot of people with all kinds of skin colors, religions and cultural backgrounds. People will have to do more research than just looking at a DNA result that only goes back to 7 generations (= 128 ancestors). Your DNA matches and genealogy can provide clues and insight into kinship and ancestral bloodlines
I took a My Heritage DNA test and I got English 53% Azores Islands Portugal 26.4 % Irish Scottish Welsh 8.9 % Scandinavian 7.6 % East European 4.1 %
Sounds like your Great Great grandparents screwed around a lot
Related to any sailors or soldiers?
