In this 38 minute mini doc, I just want to know: how y’all do that thing you do? How you’re the “cApItAl of c00L” but so…down-to-earth at the same time? What is going on in Berlin? I’m here to find out via the Pfand system, the various photoautomats, and maybe a little bouldering. Sorry Berlin, I’m new here.
🇫🇷 My French course: courses.damondominique.com
🔥 WHAT'S GOING ON IN THIS VIDEO
0:00 A social media ode to Berlin
1:00 WTF is Pfand and why is it everywhere in Berlin (Berlin’s plastic recycling program). Did I mention how much Aldi loves me by the way?
3:24 I don’t know if these jam skaters at Tempelhofer Feld know that I’m from a rollerskating family back in Indiana? Oumi Janta, wut’s good?
7:09 No one is on their phones, ever. In fact, they’ll probably never see this video because they’re too busy relaxing in parks - and frankly, I can’t blame them.
7:53 I met a Chinese-German woman while staying at the "Walled Off" Banksy Hotel in Bethlehem, Palestine - yes that was a real sentence - and I can’t stop talking about her. She has stories on stories from around the world, and this was the first time we have met up in two years.
14:10 The cliché of Germans is that they're "honest, direct people" and I guess the real proof is when you're using their metro system.
14:40 I head to Kreuzberg to visit the Turkish sweet shops, where I --- wait, am I supposed to reuse that bowl that the other dudes just spit their sunflowers in...*gasp* in the era of...COVID?
18:27 Maybe the reason annoying selfies haven't taken over Berlin completely is because of the prominence of the Berlin photo booth, aka photoautomat. She's the real Berlin IT girl. Asgar and Ole explain.
22:30 We all learn history, but through what lens? You're like: whoa whoa wh--at is that Valencia filter? I'm more A4 on VSCO. I have so many questions about the history of the Berlin wall and the Cold War, and who better to ask than a New Yorker who runs a tour called the Rude Bastard’s tour? In the words of Rihanna, come here rude boy, boy…
30:00 So I’m sitting in Café St. Oberholz when a guy comes up and says he loves this channel. I’m like…so what are you up to in Berlin? Dude invites me to go bouldering in Berlin - THIS is what I’m talking about when I say it’s cool to be friendly in Berlin. Döner and Club Maté happen as well.
35:37 Berlin said, “You ain’t gotta go home. But you gotta get the FCK up outta here.”

We don't need "Emily in Paris." What we really need is "Damon in __[insert country]__" !!!
NETFLIX ARE YOU LISTENING!?
This !!!! Preach !!
“Damon All Over”
!!!!!
Accurate..!
i’ve said this once and i’ll say it again: i’ll be waiting for your netflix documentary
*IT WILL HAPPEN!*
dang I would be so excited if that happened
Yes pleaseee
Omg yes, would rather watch you than Emily in Paris
Yooooo except i cannot wait 😳😳😳
this video hurt my heart a little. i love berlin. was born & raised there. i had to move recently because i couldn't afford the rent anymore. i don't get checks from my parents. and even working 2 jobs as a fulltime student isn't enough. yes, university is free but OH MY GOD THE RENT. berlin used to be so alternative and humble. but now, behind the berghain and "festival vibes" facade, it reeks of capitalism and rich kids. berlin has become more colorful culture wise, but also fucking expensive. i never thought the place i call my home would become unattainable to me and my childhood friends. glad you enjoyed it tho hahaha
What if you just make more public transportation each days, to still being able to work in the centre of Berlin?
And now so many former Berliner move to Leipzig so shit will get more expensive here too and less affordable every damn year. I hate it, it used to be so nice and just the right amount of big city with some small city and alternative vibes and now it's getting more expensive and capitalist here too.
Ganzen Blogger ziehen nach Berlin deswegen haha
meine Worte:/
Yes this is happening to so many cities... I guess we just have to move on to somewhere else, make it cool, and enjoy life before that gets ruined too🙈
“You wake up without any makeup on and go buy yourself a bread” - LOVE THIS
Most Berlin thing ever ^^
@ITACA yea, I'm a man and I always buy bread without makeup, so revolutionary
You can do that in america aswell
@ITACA you didn't get it
@ITACA Pretty sure it was obvious that she meant you don’t have to be dolled up or dress like a trendy Instagram model.
as someone living in berlin this video made me fall in love with the city all over again
You guys in Berlin are not making it easy for us that want to visit again or actually move. Seems like the best place to be the more videos I watch.
same ^_^ i wish i bumped into you though damon :((((
same same SAME! Yeah I wish I would have been at St. Oberholz Coffee when u were. GREAT video!
literally same! especially in the rough times we're in now
Eve!
„Kamera weg“ is the most German thing.
Ich bin privat hier
The cashier at the Aldi was rude not using any form of "please" - though being rude is typical Berlin, since they think they are capital ... I guess, it is the same with Parisians or Muscovites.
@@henningbartels6245 i just think of a healthy dose of rudeness as the german way
@@judithtraill4246 sorry, though this rudeness is fairly common in Berlin, it is not healthy especially in a city where a lot of tourists from other German regions or other countries are around. But I' m not shy to remind some of those people what impression of Berlin they make.
@@henningbartels6245 I've experienced similar rudeness by Aldi cashiers in southern Germany (Munich and Heidelberg) - unfortunately it's pretty common throughout
bruh why is everyone asking for a tv show......... this is already better than tv shows or at least different in a more personal and special way and its free like hello??????????? although as i type this i realize that he would probably be paid more if it was an actual tv show which would reflect the value better of this incredible work in a monetized way so idk. he definitely deserves it if he wants it
I agree. I think if he signed a contract with some production company, they would take away some of his creative freedom and potentially force him to play some type of role that might get old or not be genuine. I mean ,I don't know Damon personally, so his youtube persona could be different from his non-youtube persona, but nonetheless I like youtube damon and his editing is damn good.
"ab jetzt kamera WEG!! KAMERA WEG!! "
i miss germany sfm
DATENSCHUTZ
Nicht jeder will gefilmt werden 🤷♀️
what does sfm mean
@Jeremias Larroca ohh thanks!
hiss editing. his shots. his FITS. i swear this is one of the most unique yt channels and you can see how much effort is put into every video!! i literally never comment on yt videos but i had to say this cause i’m amazeddddd
Being anticapitalist doesn't mean you admire the Soviet Union or East Germany, you just don't believe in capitalism as a sustainable system
YASSSS INDEED
SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK 🙌🏽
And since socialism had also proven to not be a sustainable system and you don't like capitalism, instead of being negative, how about giving some ideas? What do you think people should do?
@@slidenapps omg having critics about capitalism isn't "being negative" or being a socialist. You should probably read the comment again (and also read more about both sistems) and be chill pls 💜
@@marinaoliveira8989 sorry, in which country do u live?
This is a deep study of a city;
you dont just show the standard things, you show the flowing dynamics and the inner values; the overall atmosphere and the little nuances - all the things that actually matter the most when you're experiencing a city.
the WAY my black ass perked up when the cute boy started talking about the need to address Germany's colonialist past ... in his German accent 🤩 I will take two of those please
Lmaooo
he’s probably racist tho
@@davidlehmann6233 what are you even talking about smh
OMG RIGHT!! I need his @ 😭
@@davidlehmann6233 stop projecting
The way Damon effortlessly makes friends with complete strangers in random European cities... my social anxiety could NEVER
Side note, thank you Damon for inspiring me to make my own content!
ikr same omg I would be so awkward
Right?!!! I'm so shy, I could never do that
I think his looks also helps, not trying to be mean though. I mean who wouldn’t want to talk to someone that’s good looking?
Omg same. But I guess he kinda has to because he basically has to ask for help as a foreigner (at least that's what I had to do when I was abroad). But I'm back home and I'm back to not speaking to strangers😆✌️
I know... I wish I could so bad!!...
my face when I saw Damon on tinder in Berlin: 0_0
I was such a waste of space in the Berlin Tinder game. I didn't meet up with ONE person.
@@damondominique wait a minute, what about the university guy?
@@mnaoitb1 I think he said the uni guy came up to him while he was at a coffee shop editing a video
This needs to be a netflix series! The cinematography feels so coming of age and the way you handle yourself in front of the camera is so candid, it's unlike any documentary I've ever seen before. A great watch.
I LOVE THIS. A MASTERPIECE.
Editing and color grading ON POINT
Jamás me hubiera imaginado este crossover pero ME ENCANTA.
no fr. the editing skills r leveling up!
Nmms mis dos favsss❤️
Is it really the grading or the camera? i wanna know too....
Robert asking magicians to hit him up in Berlin was the CUTEST
I was about to apply, but he asked for musicians :(
@@DominoLarry then he added that magicians as well:)
your filming style... literally makes me feel as if i'm watching a dope ass movie !!!
It's going to sound SO CLICHE but Berlin changed my life 13 years ago. I freaking love Berlin and I hope to live back there one day...soon. Loved this video!
literally EVerYThing! this video is EvEryTHING!
two german queens
I just watched your video and now this! I’m learning French but now I want to learn German too!!! Europe is an amazing place 🤍🤍
I literally just watched ur flying back vid huh
Yass sehr gut zusammengefasst ✨✨
I'm only two seconds into your channel and IT is eVeRRRyThinG!
okay but you SMASHED this. brb, gonna go rollerskate in tempelhof while eating sunflower seeds and living my best life because *that* is berlin energy
Wow I was just thinking jade is in Berlin too I hope they meet up and my 2 favorite worlds collide 🥳
sunflower seeds are *the best*
OMG HI JADE SO GLAD TO SEE YOU HERE! MY TWO FAVES INTERACTING
@@applebruises ikr i love emm
Literally got so interested in Berlin because of you and now I so desperately wanna go thanks to Damon 😭
I ALSO MISS CLUB MATE QUITE A LOT
Yeah man
Ekelhaft
@@suffsepp9995 Meine rede, holy. Jedem das seine - aber bei Mate bin ich raus.
"Was there like a huge border?" (surrounding East Germany instead of only east berlin is what you were asking I think) Because the lovely dude didn't answer you're question I will: YES THERE WAS. It was called the "Todesstreifen:" aka "deathstripe?" idk.
Anyway: Along the border with Schleswig-Holstein, Lower Saxony, Hesse, and Bavaria, a regulation which provided for a 5-kilometer wide restricted area on the territory of the GDR had been in force since 1952. From then on, every border crossing was subject to authorization. In the restricted area, there was a 500-meter wide protective strip "the Todesstreifen" at the border and a 10-meter wide control strip immediately in front of it. Entering the restricted area was subject to the obligation to obtain a permit, for which the residents had to register.
This is EVERYTHING a city guide on youtube should be. Respect man, you nailed this 👏
"Germany has enough to say I'm sorry about" is a weird response to someone saying the German colonial past must be acknowledged and spoken about esp because systemic racism (based on colour) is still highly prevalent in all spheres of German society, EVEN in Berlin. jus my 2 cents
Agreed! You can respect how far Germany has come without minimizing how far Germany has to go. His comment rubbed me the wrong way.
Thank you! I was so put off when he said that.
I thought he said “Germany has a lot to say sorry about” now he irks me
YES EXACTLY!!! Also the fact that he was interrupting him irked me as well like he was making important and valid points.
@@mariama12 wait, I agree with you but can you please elaborate on "without minimizing how far Germany has to go." part
Loved the blond dude mindset on acknowledging historic/current colonial behaviours:
"yeah we are changing and doing better than other places, but we can do better"
God, i dream about the day i can visit this country ✨
Reminder that Germany has still not paid a single cent of reparations for the victims of the genocide in Namibia.
Hello Damon, 24 years old Turkish person speaking, i really admire your appreciation of the culture wherever you go or whom you are speaking to. And if your plans work out about travelling to Turkey i would love to show you around and teach you how to consume sunflowers :D
i still don't get how Damon gets to meet all the cool people in a city where he doesn't even live... are you a magnet or whatt?
It’s not difficult to meet cool people in the city like Paris or Berlin (I would include Amsterdam) especially if you’re an outgoing american.
Kathy Ch I don’t think Amsterdam is comparable with Paris & Berlin but other than that ur rightttt
This episode made me realize that you are the answer to Anthony Bourdain. I think when you have your fully produced TV series people will see you as the next great travel show. 🙏🏻
luv it when my faves watch each other😍😍
No truer words were ever spoken. He da 💣🔥.
Love Anthony Bourdain and everything he did and taught the world in his style 🏆 Would be an honor to continue what he did on a larger platform! Anyway thank you for saying that ❤️
YES
This comment gave me chills!! I agree
I didn’t realize how much I wanted to visit Berlin until this video...THANK YOU!!
The font on the U-Bahn and S-Bahn signs and the whole BVG Plan system was designed by Erik Spiekermann who is the typography genius behind so many signs, logos and typography.
🔥 my original plan for this year was to go to russia, south africa, turkey, indonesia, and other corners of the world and make these minidocs, but clearly 🤷🏼♂️ that wasn't meant to happen in 2020. if you've been watching my IG story, you've been seeing that instead, i'm back in paris gettin' in fights with uber drivers and trying to get a hold of customer service to locate my damn computer monitor. please 2021, save us all.
🔥 production companies or tv agents who are tryna do a show like this with me, boom: management @ damondominique . com
Looks like your still making the best of 2020. An update on what is going on in Paris would be interesting. But I know we’re all tired of hearing and talking about covid.
Imagine 2020 was only a trailer for what's about to come for 2021 :3
You HAVE to come to South Africa when this is over!! We need to meet you 😭
You have to come to Cape Town!!
Yas you have to come to South Africa. I wana meet with you! 💕🤞🏾🙏🏾
The only way I can describe Damon is that he is the exact opposite of a toxic person
Damon can make the most boring storyline extremely interesting. Like walking down a street, or eating... I've watched many of his videos and I can't get enough. What is this voodoo?
Ok I have never seen anyone struggle with a "Pfandautomat" as much as you lol
Can we just take a second to acknowledge that Damon truly is a cultural anthropologist? I'm in school for that now and you're literally doing what I want to do: visit different countries, meet and build relationships with people from all over, explore and learn about their language/culture while filming. This is so awesome and I'm inspired by every video that you make. If you ever go back to school, please get a degree in visual or cultural anthropology! I would absolutely LOVE a series of you just making these kinds of docs. They're interesting, short, and to the point, and you include a lot in them.
I’m studying cultural anthropology too and was thinking the same thing!☺️
Wow.. could you do a video about it? I would 100% watch it all. I’m already subscribed to you.
I actually go to school for this, too. Seeing him doing this stuff inspires me to continue what I'm doing😂
going to school for anthropology (archaeology focused) as well and i agree!! his documentaries arent necessarily similar in an academic sense, but i think i am drawned to him just because how close he highlights culture in his videos, especially in his travel documentaries, it is honestly something really rare which even the most high budget documentaries do a poor job at portraying, which is why i love damon
oh yah! except don't some cultural anthropologists think that it's impossible to study Western societies/countries as a whole because of the huge diversity in populations/cultural norms even within the same country? just putting this out there, not trying to bring anyone down! but do you have some thoughts on this?
The edits, the colour palette... what are you doing to us
Okay but.. I want a documentary on Yang’s life LMFAO
studying german to live in berlin, such a dream i got. only 16 yo but i feel like i belong there❤️
I’m 16 and learning German too☺️
I'm 16 and I live in Berlin. See you in a few years then🌨
I life in Berlin i Hope see you soon✌️
I’m hoping to move to Berlin eventually ☺️ Good luck with your learning and travel safely!!
My favorite part of all this was “I’m 29, I’m getting this bowl”. Getting older has been such a point of liberation for me because of little, seemingly insignificant moments like that. Have things the way you want and don’t be too afraid or too shy or too ashamed to ask for it.
Oh, and “if you’re a magician hit me up” 🤣
fr fr
As a Turk, watching Damon struggle with his sunflower seed eating technique was pretty amusing (in a cute way). I feel like if he went to Turkey he would get the cultural context a bit better. In that German cafe it seemed like just a cool thing to snack on, whereas in Turkey eating sunflower seeds to while away the time is more of a national past time, while you catch up on gossip, watch people and think about life :)
thats so beautiful, wow. i loved reading that. i’d love to visit turkey but unfortunately they hate gulf arabs and i happen to be one lol
Damon: Everything Other Than TECHNO That Berlin Should Be Known For
also Damon: literal techno music in the background
The way the cashier said "Kamera weg!" 😂 👏🏻👏🏻
Damon didnt just go find any old skater, he went and found the most popular, most beautiful, most incredible roller girl right now 😍
lmao I noticed that. like whaaat??
Woooow bro! This is so next level. You gotta get a netflix deal!
For real!!
Agreed
Nah Damon is too cool for netflix
ein 5 Tage altes Video über Deutschland/eine deutsche Stadt & die Kommentare sind noch nicht von lauter alMAnS eingenommen? Wie kann das sein? HAHAH
Frage ich mich auch hahahahah
Das is bei jedem RUclips Video so, in dem entweder das Wort Deutsch vorkommt oder ein Deutscher nur durchs Bild läuft. Wir sind eine invasive Spezies, vor allem, was den Kommentar Bereich angeht :D
Viktoria Müller hat schon kommentiert !
haha jetzt wo dus sagst kommen bestimmt mehr leute lol
Kaaameeeraaaa weeeeg
The light turns yellow first so that they can shift their cars into gear before it turns green :)
Wait but you got three colors in your trafficlights too right?
@@JohnDoe-tl7zg yeah, it is red, then turns yellow for a bit (just as a warning I guess) before it turns green and you can drive
I wouldn’t say money isn’t important I think Europeans consume less compared to Americans. There is less of a consumer culture in Europe in general.
That’s a good point... we were all feckin poor by the end of WWII while the USA was BOOMING. It’s like European countries were having tantrums and fighting with each other, throwing our toys out the pram and ripping each other’s up until it was over and we realised we didn’t have any toys anymore 😂
I agree but i feel like especially the younger generation is more likely to spend more money
Americans care way more about status symbols. They spend money they don't have on stuff they don't need. It also happens in Europe, but not on the same degree. In Germany in particular we're taught from early ages to save money whenever possible and to think twice about what to spend it on or not.
in the US spending money is unavoidable and part of the stress on having a good job is having health insurance, dental ect since health problems can put you in debt. If you go to college you will have massive amounts of debt as well, and most will be paying that up till they are 45 years old. Most cities in the US are also way more expensive. You couldn't live in NYC by working in a coffee shop unless you lived with 3 roommates and decided not to have children.
Not saying this is the way it should be. I wish health care was free and college wasn't so expensive....
‘you dont wear make up, you go out and buy a bread’ yall i think i found my heaven
I am a Berliner and love all of this. I see you all over Friedrichshain, Damon. Love it!
😭when he just cut the clip when the guy started talking about his wrist problems
This little discussion between the tour guide and the native-berliner is actually super interesting. Because i was born and raised in Berlin and people looking from the outside in put Berlin on this pedestal that native Berliners sometimes cant comprehend lol.
Exactly! Just because Germany is doing a better job than some countries doesn't mean that we are doing a good enough job. We do have a problem with racism that shouldn't just be swept under the rug like this.
@@NoPityForThePlatsch exactly! And I totally get that people who come from other countries compare it to other countries like the US (which is a joke at that point)
Honestly his "Berlin/Germany has enough to say sorry for" rubbed me the wrong way, like, why would you think things are perfect now and even BE so confrontational with the other guy who was so chill
Like hey, I'm not saying that because he's from Berlin he has ALL the facts but at least have some respect for someone who's clearly speaking from his love of his city, like damn
I don't know what the deal with people from other countries (specially the US, honestly) who are so CERTAIN everything they know and say are just facts
@@TheRiotPunkGirl
The guy that said that, the tour guide, isn’t he from Germany too?
I couldn’t tell.
@@Shay45 His accent sounded American but I might be wrong
also very accurate for German culture: grumpy cashier and cars honking aggressively. Still love Berlin tho ;)
really? when I was in Germany (Bautzen) in some kinda super market cashier literally screamed HALLO!! at me with the biggest smile (I was terrified but in a good way haha) and also it's maybe like only Bautzen thing but there was no walkway anywhere so you could just cross the street where you wanted and every car was stopping and no one had a problem with it
maybe it's like cultural differences between cities/lands...idk
Berlin is our grumpy town. It's kinda mandatory to be slightly pissed off all the time. Berlin dialect is referred to as "Berliner Schnauze" (Schnauze means mouth, mouth of an animal or here: way of talking) which is a loving way to show the ruffness of the capital.
This is incredible!
I'm from Berlin and moved away a while ago and this made me fall in love with the city again. You showed me what I loved about Berlin and what I'll always remember. Thank you! Seriously, thank you so much! Late night Döners, park-encounters, openess, friendliness, the feeling of being sorrounded by people who are down-to-earth and yet at the same time somewhere else in the clouds; depending on how much money you have for the rest of the month haha wonderful video!
Waiting for the day Damon gets a Netflix series. Please do Copenhagen or London soon.
*waitin for the phone call* ⏰
@@damondominique Or Vienna. It has the quirkiest people
Oslo dear, Oslo would be a great revelation to you...
I love that you mentioned that Berlin "isn't about the money". I'm from Canada, and I feel like we have the same mentality than Americans in the sense that we are a capitalist country where careers are an important social status factor. I lived in Berlin for a year and I noticed that no one talked about their work or how much money they made during conversations with friends... money just wasn't important, nor was climbing up the ladders in big corporate companies. I miss that SO much about Berlin. What a great city - thank you for this lovely and interesting documentary!
Tbh I think that's more of an East German thing. In West Germany many people do care about climbing up the ladders in big corporate companies, especially in cities like Stuttgart, Munich, Frankfurt, Hamburg. Berlin lost all company headquarters when it was split and they never returned. So people intending to make a big career are less likely to move to Berlin.
Talking about wages is a big taboo in Germany. That is really frowned upon over here. I think it is the same in most European countries. The idea is that if you tell how much money you make, people will either pity you or be jealous at you. Both isn't nice, so you've got nothing to gain by telling.
Damon this is so great! I love how you meet such inspiring people, your edits and effort and it makes me really happy to be young and hopefully be able to travel a lot.
watching this warmed up my heart. love berlin so much. and this editing is incredible. thank you
Damon's french accent when speaking german kills me
1:20 I'm actually from Essen and I sometimes feel like our biggest accomplishment is our name.
I mean I'm fascinated by it!
WHEN THE ROCKCLIMBING GUY BRUSHED DAMON ON THE HEAD W THAT CLEANING BRUSH
I love this video! Berlin is for sure one of my favorite places I've visited. And the one thing you didn't include (probably because i doesn't happen to you) that really stood out to me is that I traveled by myself to Berlin and went everywhere by myself at all times of day and not even once was I harassed! That has literally never happened to me as a female traveler in ANY city I've visited before. I felt very very safe and comfortable there as a solo female traveler.
Damon why did you take the pfandbon right after every bottle. You can throw every bottle you have and then press the button lmao
I was actually laughing at this one too 😆
The new ones come out automatically if you’re not quick enough😂
I was so confused by that lmao
"you dont have makeup go out and buy yourself some bread" A MOOD
i love the editing of this- actually i love everything about it
This is amazing I'd love to see you making it into a series, to see it about other countries! Awesome work Damon
okay about that magician=musician thing, I met this German guy once at a beach and he told me he's a 'magician'. Later that day in the evening he started playing music with his guitar and after he's done i'm like cool what about the magic? And he's like that's enough for today. I WAS SO CONFUSED FOR QUITE SOMETIME until I realised...
at this point you need to trademark "Damon Dominique Documentaries" because you killed it yet again
Get that triple D haha
this video is...amazing. great freaking energy, flow, shots, interviews, wowowowo
You put so much effort into your videos- i get so excited every time you post
As a person who grew up here it's really fascinating to see how people precive what you deem to be normal
Isso... ich finde es schon krass, wie positiv er über Berlin gesprochen hat. Meiner Meinung nach ist Berlin so eine Stadt, die man entweder hasst oder mag. Bei ihm merkt man, dass er die Stadt gern hat.
so pumped for this!!! 🔥
this was amazing damon, i haven't been back to berlin in about 3 years now but your video just brought back all those good memories and feelings i had in the city
amazing mini doc! I have tears in my eyes while watching because I miss this place. You have captured something really special. Thank you for sitting down with all these fascinating, genuine people that make Berlin the city it is.
I used to go out in Germany in my fluffy pink winter pajamas, ride the tram, walk around the city, no one ever batted an eye. Loved it.
@Master Pooshi Well, jokes on you because in February the Karnival happened and then EVERYONE was wearing their onesies and pajamas! XD
i was having a miserable night... not anymore now that damon’s back with a mini doc 🤟🏼
Turn that night around! The path forward doesn't have to be dictated by the past.
@@damondominique thanks for always bringing me (and many others) so much joy w/ your content 💙
I don’t know where you see “mini” 👀 dis a whole ass doc. 38 minutes is a FEAT 😂
@@damondominique Damn man thank you 😭
@@damondominique that is so Alfred Adler! (sorry just read about his psychology and saw this comment of yours) lol
your videos are everything! Literally it is so nice how you connect with everyone and you notice the little things of each place and you enjoy it. Plus you always give that knowledge content and facts about the places!!
I love how Damons videos are so educational & philosophical.... I love it so much
Who knew recycling could be this entertaining
Just saying (from a German speaker): The gender of a word does not change in the different cases, it always remains the same. It's just the form of the article that changes (but not the gender)... Loved your documentary, Damon! Keep it up!
Yeah, he just gets it confused because it does seems to anybody who hasn't learned about akkusativ, nominativ and dativ, that the noun's gender will just "randomly" change in a sentence (like from die to der) when in fact this change is because the verb in sentence is either akkusativ or dativ (for example), and this will change the gendered "the" to a new word, which happens to look like other gendered "the's", but that's just a coincidence. Albeit, a VERY confusing coincidence :)
This is the kind of videos/documentary I really crave and crave to make. You are a KING for thiss. I hope more people find this and get the same sense of deep appreciation for your videos!!
I just love how open he is with his thoughts and thought process. It is so interesting and he makes me think in a different, more worldly way
What an idea to interview the guys from the photobooth!! Everyone sees them and love them but nobody really actually bother to know more about it. Great idea !!
10:12 when Yang said she was part Turkish, I was so surprised! It is so rare that people talk about Turks without insulting them. Bless her, she's so sweet.
i have to agree on that as a german with turkish roots!
You nailed this, my friend. You gave a very good representation of how life in Berlin for a lot of young people is like. Well done and authentic!
Damon I do not understand how of alllllll the travel videos and youtube videos I spend my time watching. your videos are so incredibly UNIQUE- not only from everything else on youtube, but even from your own videos! Each video is so new and exciting. you are honestly incredible and I live vicariously thru you
Am I the only one that gets nervious by the fact that Damon leaves his camera aside to film himself walking risking that a thief grab it and run. no? anyone?
Ok I know there’s probably a million other comments like this but...
the ✨EDITING✨
the ✨MUSIC✨
this video is a frickin masterpiece guys 🥵
Thank you ALL for watching and caring! 😟 sorry im listening to soft nicki minaj ballads and gettin' in my feels seeing all the love.
Love your channel so so much Damon! You’ve inspired me to take a gap year after I finish college (in two years) and go see the world and find myself. Thank you for being your authentic self in your videos and as a RUclipsr and for all the amazing videos you create, can’t tell you how refreshing it is to see. Lots of love to you 💛💛💛
Incredible. Everything from the editing, colour, and showing the non stereotypical sides of Berlin I’ve always been curious about. One of the best location vids I’ve seen dude. Great work
love how you translated "Kamera weg" with please put the camera away cuz she basically meant put the damn camera away lol
holyyyy shit dude!!! that storytelling!!! i'm speechless. this is far better than like... any documentary I've seen.
this made me so happy and so thankful that i live in germany. you are so wholesome and truly one of the few creators that actually make their videos meaningful and sooooo incredibly inspiring!!! i noticed that with your paris series too and i am so happy for you that all your hard work and the risks you took are paying off. keep doing what you do and being so creative and open minded :)
Love this!!! Whenever I'm out of Berlin I kinda forget about that easygoing version of myself that only unfolded as I was studying there carefree andn this just reminded me to carry it with me proudly
Okaaaay, we need MORE documentaries from Damon!!!! Like, I'm sorry but Netflix who?
Never heard of her
When this corona madness is over you should make a video about the technoculture and Berghain!
if they let me in 🤭
@@damondominique they have to!!
@@damondominique if they let me in they will def let you in!
Berghain is honestly so overrated 😄 the sound is amazing but the artificial exclusivity is just such a turn off for me
@@damondominique If they don't let you in, then we don't wanna go in either. fuuuq dat haha
Berlin is my hometown and this was the most heartwarming documentary I have watched about it. So, so good
love these mini docs!!! PLEASE make more
