No
I prefer freedom they can keep their Democracy XD

We had an exchange student from the US here a few years ago who wanted to go really fast on the Autobahn for once. We took him in a car that really does go 300 and drove to a good stretch where you can go that fast.
The scene was very similar to your clip. Until 180 he was quite happy, at 230 he said it really was enough, beyond 250 he was begging for mercy...
I don't think he wet himself, but sure came close...
Not that we were "used to" driving that fast either, but we didn't let that show.. ;)
Try that on a bike..
@@MrTorbz I've done speeds way beyond that on bikes, and driving cars, but mostly on racetracks / closed off roads.
You never get "used to" driving that fast on public roads, because there are lots of other people / factors around that are totally unpredictable, especially on a bike where you are so easily overlooked.
For Americans that's 186 mph, which is also about the top speed for high speed rail in Europe.
Yes, all the fastest conventional high speed trains (TGV, ICE, Shinkansen,...) have a maximum speed of around 320 km/h in regular operation. They can only go that fast on sections of the tracks rated for such speeds, so the limit is actually the tracks. The trains themselves could go way faster.
The current speed record is held by the french TGV at 574.8 km/h, that's about 357 mph !!!
So if you want to go really fast while relaxing and looking out the window... take the train!
Hahahaha oh Germans, you guys are diabo1ica1 😅
Ahhh, but the beer in Germany is served cold! No need for ice. If it gets warm it means you not drinking fast enough...
THIS!
I would say it is more "cool" than "cold". Americans like their beer "ice cold" - to mask the taste
I once bought a package called in 12 beers around the world and it came with serving recommendations including the correct beer temperature. It was always between 6-10°C. This basically means Amerikans don't know how to drink beer.
@@janos5555 they drink WINE also Ice cold which means they have no clue of a good taste
True
I like how chill the German dude is with all the American shenaniganery but the straw that breaks the camel's back is putting ice in beer
LMFAO
Lol, germans are not allowed to get angry.
it really IS an immortal sin, if you did that in Belgium people would not talk to you anymore
I have never, in my life, ever seen someone put ice in beer, this is not a thing in the USA....maybe its a California thing?
@@AD-1138 I have recently seen a picture on Reddit and was shocked that someone would put ice in beer. If I wanted watered down beer, I'd order a Kölsch.
@@TheStiepen Its a rare thing then, as I said, in all my life I have never seen anyone put ice in their beer. Either they drink it warm or they wait for the beer to chill in the fridge or freezer. This is NOT a normal thing in the USA.
As an American, I can confirm our phones all have the president's phone number pre-programmed into them in case there are Russians around.
Hahaha! No they don’t
Smooth brain @@margritpiepes8242
So... There are russians in ever US state that time 🤔 americans aren't nation, they all are migrants
That's way Trump will be your presedent, isn't that?
Yes they do. The President is on a built-in speed dial.
Please do a "When Germans visit the USA"
It's gotta happen sooner or later^^
@@RadicalLiving Feli has talked a lot about the differences but hasn't done any skits like these, other than "conversations" between her German and American selves. She's not quite the ham that NALF is.
They’re going to die for all the friendliness 😵
@@CesarGarcia-nd5xz Or be enraged by it. 😆
That would be the same but in reverse
I do like how the American guy can just produce guns at a moments notice, I like to think he's not even carrying them, he just _wills_ them into existence.

that’s the american way
The Constitution of the United States of America gives its citizens mystical powers.
That's how it works. The reason there are so many shootings is because of that power. You get angry and the country just spawns an AR-15 with a big ass drum mag right in front of you.
@@paradoxica424 lol
After 30 years in Germany, now I get a culture shock back in the US! 😂
Opening a beer bottle with teeth is debatable, but it's true that we use basically everything as a bottle opener: lighter, table, rings, other bottles, ... in that clip my go to choice would have been the railing
Fork, spoon, knives.
This is typical dutch behavoir too
The bench in the park
Some people use their smartphones... which is... desperate
almost everything, the one exception being...a bottleopener
I actually watched part 1 while visiting Germany last year. Pretty spot on. I'm glad y'all made a sequel.
Oh, this is part three. Part two and four are on NALFs channel.
Link is in the description.
Part 1 to this one was just posted earlier today: ruclips.net/video/zohJt_vkjx8/видео.html
The one you had seen last year is a different one. ;-)
No Ice, No Ice anywhere is what I have noticed the most in Germany after being here for two weeks. Driving is insanely fast here too. I never know how to answer all the questions about America and guns. Great video!!!!
We just put our beer in the freezer for a few minutes since we have and aversion to ice, because we got the ICE, wich is our notoriously unreliable [as in always late] high speed train that we hate for not confirming to our ideals. Oh, I forgot to explain, a train is like a truck that people outside the US put on rails to make it pull more stuff XD
@@S7E_Siriel-PrivatSo you don't serve your beer cold ?
@@iggyblitz8739 We serve it cold, but without ice.
Hey man we have ice, and chlorine-free too! Unlike those toxic waste cubes one gets in the good old USA. I love this country but never understood how people could tolerate the taste 🤢
We do not like our drinks to be watered down and we pay for a 0,5l drink and not a glas full of ice with a little bit of liquid. One day US Americans realize that they are getting ripped off with all that ice in the glasses I think the tradition of free refills came from someone who complained about a half empty glas. Just try it when you are back home. Get a normal drink with ice and an empty glas, now pour the drink into the empty glas without the ice and you see how much you really get for your money. 😉
When the American realised Alaska was owned by Russia
After living in Germany for 6 years, I can say that it was not a difficult transition. Sure some things were awkward at first but my neighbors and most Germans I ran into were very forgiving as they could tell that I was making the effort. Its those that dont make an effort that have the most trouble and usually get accosted.
One thing I wish you would have put in there is that the Polizei do NOT mess around, they will not argue or negotiate. Either you do what they tell you or you go to jail.
German police is very nice.
They don't even bother you if there is no real reason.
If they do, well ..
@@laktho Yes, sorry, I was not implying that they are rude or aggressive. While I have not been pulled over by one, I had to stop at a safety checkpoint and they were very courteous.
I was simply making a comment that they do not mess around, if they give you a directive, you follow it or face the consequence of your actions.
Hey! :)
May I ask what your reason was to move to germany? I'm considering moving to america.
I personally made a different experience with the police and the Polizei. The police in german is pretty distanced, cold*. I feel like they are pretty unfriendly too and do their jobs as if they just wanna get done with every case asap, as if people were some kind of paper work. I ran into a police officer in america. I did only once but this police officer actually cared about me, I could tell. He was being very friendly and just made it obvious that he seriously wanted to help me.
Not sure if that's just a cultural thing but imo german police officers are not very sympathic
I would consider the German police very relaxed compared to the US counterpart, considering that the latter one will draw a gun on you if you move your hands away from the the steering wheel or make any sudden moves that scare them.
but the best thing about polizei is most of the time u dont get shot for trivial things like ur crazy cops in the us.its true they dont mess around but at least they dont kill someone almost every day
Lol the phone call to the president and the fighter jets along with the patriotic music was great! 🤣
Yeah but those are Russian jets
@@ryanzogu6193 oh lol, I didn't even notice 😂
I did notice the Russian jets blended with with American flag. They were not even German jets.
Don’t try this at home: opening a German bottle of beer with your teeth 🦷 😩 Even Germans don’t really do that. Use your plastic BIC lighter and pop the bottle 😃 Lovely series, yes that’s everywhere in Germany ! Never ask how we are doing - else we will tell you ! 😜
Could also open it with edge of kitchen counter if you don't have an helpful Swiss knife ( useful in the car, in the tracking bag...). Or if you have 2 bottles ( Bier bottles always go in team) open it Nalf's way, using an other bottle to open it !
Was that a joke or did those beers have something more like a cork?
@@emjayay Well, it is a normal crown cork.
I was actually more confused how the dude tried to open the bottle, with his bare hands.
in case you dont have a lighter at hand, use a spoon or fork (use the back end) to pop the bottle cap, alternative ways, are using a piece of folded paper, or a ruler, or open it on the side of the box it comes in. Also you could use a special tool called a bottleopenener.
@@marvintimke3978 In the North America they open by turning.
Coming from south east Asia, the German portions are fucking huge for me! Will be visiting the USA this year. I'm scared and excited! 🤣
I’ll give you a quick tip, the cheaper the restaurant, the more food you get. The more expensive, usually the less food you get. In Chicago my friends, fiancé and I went to an expensive Italian restaurant, and my fiancé and I got ravioli. The ravioli cost 30 dollars, but we got three small dumplings. We were still hungry after our meal. But if you go to Olive Garden, you’ll get 1000 calories or more in a meal
As an American the German portions are huge for me too😂
Wait wait wait… where in the US are you going?
Come to Texas
@@jamesmcadory1322 you need some democracy
Love that sense of humor. Give him another lager 6% beer. "If he dies, he dies" XD
I love how when he calls the president and the planes fly overhead, the planes are actually Russian Su-27s, Su-30s, or Su-35s.
Thanks, i thought i was the only one to see that lol
Yep noticed that too definitely sukhoi Russian planes
How the hell do you know type of planes by just looking
@@FA-dz8ls just like how someone can recognise a car just by looking at it
This is su-30-s(or sm) type. Su-27 and su-35 has no front stabilizer, su-34 has different tail.
Guy's! Awesome! Enjoyd your humour and regarding "democracy" my extended hug! Perfect idea and realization.. laughed a lot😂
As a guy from Norway living in the states and have traveled to Germany many times…..this is a must see video if you going there for the first time.
My Austrian wife taught me to walk more and stop spending on taxis or gas. But the hiking part really blew my mind, they really love their hikes hahaha. I'm always like fuck that, i adapted enough, don't use taxis or cars anymore, but you can go on the hike without me hahaha. I still do most of the hikes at the end, but it's fascinating to me how common it is here. Nothing wrong with enjoying hikes, I was just surprised of how common it is. It's not a niche thing, it's a shit on of people that do it.
To be fair, there are several outdoor activities where I come from that are not common here but very common there, so it's kinda the same thing.
Yes, we really love our hikes xD even people who hate sports (like me) will often still enjoy a good hike.
Hikes are AWESOME
The thing about walking or wandering around isn't so common anymore in some parts of Germany.
@@forestmanzpedia because of an event not far back?
Sorry for that 🤣😅
sgotta be the scenery. Europe (Austria moreso than most) , you can just walk outside and find vistas, nature. Maybe even mountains (im dutch so no elevation here)
America, car infrastructure . fucked up sidewalks, dangerous even. car parks all round. gotta go to designated parks to see the beaut (note: no not All America, obviously, just most)
those are...Su30s..Russian jets at 2:50 xD
I went to timed comments just to see this! XD
exactly the same in the Czech Republic, Americans have still open eyes and mouths over these things,, super video
Can't wait for part 3 😅
Um, this is part three.
part two and four are on NALFs channel.
Was german. Budweiser
i still would love to see a next Part 😁
Been wanting to shoot forever, but NALF is too scared to come to Berlin lol
I lived off-base in Germany for two years while in the military. Beautiful country, very nice people. And yes, our American beer tastes like cat piss compared to theirs. Yet, I was glad to get back to the U. S. of A.
I think your Part 2 was spot on.
“Our American beer”
Which beer are you talking about because I don’t know if it can be disputed that a lot of the best beers now come from the states?
It can be disputed, and as a recovering American alcoholic, German beers are on average noticeably better, even considering US microbreweries.
@@jaythomas2032 All beer tastes like ass to varying degrees so the bar is low I guess.
All beer tastes terribly. Addicts just don't understand that.
@@MelGibsonFan As an avid American beer drinker, I don't see what they mean. I think they're talking about macrobreweries. We have some amazing craft beer. I absolutely love German beers and I wouldn't call them any better or worse than our craft breweries.
I actually plan on visiting Germany and this is all I need, thank you
The Dude is always welcome!
Ah yes Budweiser, nothing more American then naming your beer after a city in the Czech Republic with a really German name
...and now owned by 'ABInBev' - based in Leuven, Belgium!
Correct. He could simply have gotten a real Budweiser Budvar for this american.
Calling a Sport Football, which is obviously Hand-Egg. Calling liquid Gas. Messure everything in fantasy scales. God I love that dummie dumbies. 3rd world in a gucci belt. Hahaha.
@Richdragon You understand that AB was started by German immigrants.

Finland: "We have like 2 weeks of summer here in Finland"
Do finnish houses have AC?
@@NietonoNoShana243 Most don't, some newer houses might have. However, portable AC seems to be much more popular. Cost is low enough for some not so rich homes to justify buying a cheap one. Also... if you live in an apartment building, if your flat is conveniently located away from sun it will stay cool enough during summer.
@@NietonoNoShana243 Heat pumps are getting very popular here in finland, because they are energy efficient and can be used both for warming and cooling. But ONLY AC is very rare.

Ich doch---schluss mit der deutschen Überheblichkeit!
You are so right about how is it normal to buy Russian oil and not American because it would be a lot more expensive, it wouldn't be environmental friendly and it is far away anyway. I just love how you presented Americans always feel the need to defend democracy and see Russians as some kind of villains which is ridiculous. So true.
Ice in beer in Germany is like ice in wine in France : unthinkable, a sacrilege 😉
No surprise they'd kick you out of the bar, restaurant or Biergarten !
Americans don't put ice in beer either. Neither is hot ketchup a thing
Mayonnaise with french fries is disgusting for Americans. Yet McDonald has that for Latin Americans and people eat that normally. Every culture is different.
@@aquarius5719 How is that disgusting to Americans? They put in on everything but no on fries?? tf lol
Nothing better than Pommes Rot-Weiß (fries red white aka ketchup and mayonnaise)
@@aquarius5719 Say that mayonnaise with fries is disgusting in Belgium and you're gonna be in trouble. Considering Belgians created fries to begin with and our fries culture is protected world heritage you should never pick a fight with us about fries and what belongs on/with it.

Man when I lived in Germany back in 2013. The amount of food was actually an opposite shocker. It was a lot more than what I expected for the price. So much schnitzel...
Oh man do I miss driving on the autobahn.
There is never enough Schnitzel.
As an Austrian, I have a moral obligation to tell everyone that most (not all) German Schnitzel sucks. They put sauce on it. SAUCE. When I first heard of that, I almost choked to death lol
@@lo4568 Yea the first place I went to did not. You had the choices of using dipping sauce or not. Which I prefer vs it being drowned already.
@@zacharylewis417 Yes thank God they let you choose hahah, my bf has family in Germany and they asked him if he wanted sauce on his Schnitzel and the poor guy was so confused, he was like: Sauce? What sauce...? lmao

I was a prep cook in a restaurant for almost a year, and never heard of 'heated ketchup', so I decided to do a web search and all the results were saying to never do this and it spoils the ketchup etc.. Maybe Nalf was looking for some kind of red pasta sauce or something. That and white ranch dressing would be normal to get with chicken nuggets Lol :)
I don't think he wanted heated ketchup, he wanted hot ketchup. Like, spicy.
@@Squigamunk1 Maybe, but people from America would say Hot Sauce or spicy ketchup, and he specifically asked for "Heated Ketchup", so I think it's a joke for like marinara pasta/dip sauce but Idk 🤔
Hot sauce and hot ketchup are two distinct things, at least in the part of the US I live in, anyway.
I will say, I just rewached it, and you're right, he says 'heated,' I misheard him. I've never heard of heated ketchup before (and wouldn't put ANY ketchup on pasta, of all things).
Edit: it looks like pasta, but it occurs to me that I wouldn't put ranch on pasta either, so I don't know what he's doing/eating, I guess.
@@Squigamunk1 Yes, if a video is going to poke fun at weird customs, they should make sure those things are actually real customs 👍
I as an American was confused by hot ketchup, also ketchup or ranch with noodles is... weird
I would actually LOVE the kind of trip this American is on: going to a beautiful old town in Germany, having a local German guide you around - who also speaks some English 'cause my German is that good (😏yet), and then also go on a lovely hiking trip?! Sign me the fudge up! 😊

great video showing the differences between the US and Germany!
Glad you liked it!
Heated ketchup? Must be a Oregon/west coast thing! Granted, the horror of ranch dressing permeates the US coast to coast.
What is hot Ketchup and what is Ranch? I mean I've heard about Ranch in videos but have never seen it anywhere in Germany. How does it taste like?
Ranch is amazing. You take that back!
@Richdragon Me either, and I've lived all over the US. Maybe someplace in Portland serves it.
@@althelas Ranch is a type of salad dressing or (thicker) dip (for vegetables or chips [ UK: crisps]. The white color and tanginess is from buttermilk.
Ranch is amazing with cheesy fries or pizza :-)
People in America don't even drink Beer till they are 21. We in Germany drink Beer at 12
Yeah, they can't drink, but they can drive and buy guns🙄
@@user-zw40ba50o yeah because that’s not an option in Germany, shocker but guns aren’t illegal in Germany and most car brands are german. Idiot

Anyone else notice the planes mentioned at 2:52 aren't american but russian flankers
Myself and a couple of buddies backpacked Europe in 2017. When we got to Berlin it was 90 degrees F, (32.2 C) and was the start of June. A heat wave. As we made it to our small hotel room, we were dripping in sweat. There was no AC so you would sweat right away after a shower. We couldn't even open the window because of the mosquitos. But ill never forget my buddy rushing over to the Fridge and getting what he thought was water. Took a massive sip and then started to choke/gag. Turns out, most of Europe drinks sparkling water as their go-to instead of tap water. They call it "Still Water" and you have to ask for Still water or you will get sparkling. Nothing worse than thinking your gonna have some ice cold water after walking miles all day, only to have it be sparkling water. I was laughing pretty hard tho. He should have known better as Germany was already our 3rd country.
Every hotel worth a penny has Air Conditioning.
AC isn't common in residential households here but anything commercial will most likely have full AC.
30+ Celsius summers are simply hell in Germany.
„I thought this is a first world country“ is exactly what europeans think when visiting the US. People aren’t that different after all
Do they? I loved the AC and the lifestyle, what in the US makes you think they're not first world?
@@m.m.2341 the standard of living
@@m.m.2341 The condition of roads for example and i have seen neighbor-hoods that look like warzones
I mostly agree with your statements about standard of living and neighborhoods, but simply put: Most of the neighborhoods you'll find that are that bad, and I live near a few of them myself, are generally that way because of the people that live in them. They don't respect the neighborhood in the traditional way most do here. To them it's just a shitty cheap place, or maybe even the only place, to live and it won't get better until they themselves care about the neighborhood as well. The roads do suck. Fuck the people behind that, and we hate it too. And honestly when you consider our nations lack of export goods our economy stays alive pretty well and when it suffers like right now it is, it's usually the gov'ts fault for doing some dumb shit. Most other nations that are close to us in GDP have a lot more export goods and better international trade. Considering though, that we don't do enough exporting and the fact that the poorest of our poor still live a better life with higher quality of living than many people throughout the entire world, I would say we're not doing too bad. I mean point in case, Being homeless here generally means sleeping on a friends couch or going to a shelter. The majority of homeless throughout the country only go without food a day or two at a time, something I do intentionally fairly often because I'm a tight-ass with money. In my city there are often "homeless" people pan-handling outside of a walmart, yet when I worked there the manager and I would go offer them jobs and they would say no. And poverty here really is your own fault, with the exception of certain individuals in certain circumstances. There's always a way to make money in this bitch. I myself have been unemployed for a year consecutively in the past and still managed to do just fine on my own without turning to crime. Even crime like tax evasion or operating a business without a license etc, perfectly legal and still made enough to keep my head above water and not have to work in shitty ass factories. Hell I had a buddy whose dad's back was crushed by an I beam and couldn't work in the traditional sense so he started up his own small business and did fine(as well as receiving disability pay). It's more about willpower and motivation than lack of opportunity, especially now with the free marketing you can get for yourself on social media. There's plenty of room for improvement in our workforce don't get me wrong. Low end jobs are almost always worse here than in any other first world country. Most European's I believe can get leave for almost any valid reasoning from better paid and longer lasting maternity leave all the way to your kid needing something small. Here though if your kid has a mild emergency at school and you have to leave work to deal with it, low end jobs very well may fire you for that. I believe Europeans often get twice as much vacation time as we do as well. Actual holidays I believe they get off for, as for us its only the really big ones, and often the case not even because a lot of our workforce is in the service industry which doesn't close down for most holidays. Healthcare system sucks, most would say because there isn't much gov't healthcare that's good but in my opinion its actually the fault of health insurance companies that make healthcare so unobtainable for most. And another thing, the United States is fucking HUGE. Maps don't do its scale justice. Because of this we have a lot of diversity both financially and culturally. The point, Just because you experience Southern California does not mean you've experienced Northern California, let alone the rest of the US. States here can easily be just as jarring as going to other countries throughout Europe, in some cases even more so. I live 30 minutes away from a metropolis city in a rural area, if I drive down there, everything is different. Different state technically so different traffic laws and regulations, slightly different economy, higher cost of living yet oddly enough similar wages. If I go another hour south of that, completely different story, rural area again but yet completely different culture and cost of living than both the metropolis area and my home area. hour and a half of driving, three different cultures vaguely, and three different economies. Now imagine how much different it is all the way on the other side of the country. 2 days of drive time non stop in distance. The whole of the US is hard to judge unless you've been to all of it. Really big place with lots of ethnic and economic diversity. Hell for the last few years cost of living has been going up in my hometown alone at a faster rate because people from the metropolis south of me want cheaper cost of living. I'm sure that happens in Europe too but its kind of my point. They come here only 30 minutes away to get a cheaper cost of living, yet get out of it a better quality of living. 30 minutes away and they get both cheaper and better quality of living. The US is not the same everywhere. Sorry this was so big.

A theocratic supreme court that violated women's healthcare and privacy rights.
Crime "management" instead of crime prevention.
Healthcare "management" instead of healthcare prevention.
Too many superstitious and religious people.
Too many sexually repressed people who can't tell the difference between nudity and sex.
"Dud they have ak"
"So what I have democracy"
Got laugh hard🤣🤣
I love Germany and the Language. I’m trying to learn it!
2:16 I think before the war it was actually paid in USD
You can also include calling toilet a restroom. One of my relative did that in Austria and the poor guy was literally confused.
I was hoping you guys would make a part two at some point!
Friends from the US were shocked, that children in primary school were allowed to walk to school and then go home all by themselves. They said that was also a very forign thing to them, as only approved people have to walk their kids into the classroom and pick them up at the end of the day. Can't imagine that happening in the town I grew up in
Honestly the walking bit has become less common here in Sweden since I was a kid in the 80s. Crime has gone up (a bit), traffic has gone up a lot and parenting is different today. When I was a kid in first grade (!) I had never _heard_ of anyone getting a ride to school! It was not a thing that existed...
Now if you live in a some parts of some citites, kids are not even allowed to walk by themselves before 4th grade. Where I live there are no such rules, but still kids get driven to and from school. We do the same thing, at least in winter but now the kids are 8 and 10 years old, they do go by themselves more and more.
Many places in us kids walk to school and very safe. Unfortunately media pushes only the bad and so people assume all America is like the worst seen often in big cities. Which is far from truth. The same with all places in the world. It all depends on where you live. America is huge. So likely their surprise is due to the situation where they live in the country not a reflection of the norm.
It used to be more common in the US.
0:53 thats not a highway xD
This video is funnier than part one! 😂 Cause as an American, I can actually relate to the American in this vid, mostly on the driving (I freak out & my already bad anxiety goes through the roof if someone goes 80 mph) & the air conditioning (I live in California, if I don’t have it I’ll die). Tbh honest I thought Germany actually had Air conditioning lol, guess not everywhere. Cheers from the good ol’ USA! 🇺🇸❤️🇩🇪
Air conditioning in buildings is pretty rare in most of Europe, even in the Mediterranean.
A lot of public buildings have AC, Hotels too, but not (most) private homes
Even in the few homes that has AC they rarely use it
I lived in west LA, I had no air conditioning and did not need one.
It all depends.
Might also has to do with high electricity prices.
The eurofighter typhoon behind an American flag is just so😢😢😢
that were Russians SU-34
even as a non german / american that was so fun to watch
As an American, it wasn't fun because the stereotypes are waaay off and I found it a little insulting.
@@Seismitoad3 Exactly. They see a very inaccurate picture of the US and videos like this perpetuate these kind of largely inaccurate stereotypes. There are plenty of truths to poke fun at.
@@Seismitoad3
Just treat people with respect if they aren’t jerks. Don’t generalize all Americans.
"Americans" are all people who live in the American continent, not just in the United States
@@Revolución_Socialista
That’s only true in your region.
I have been waiting month 4 it
He really right.Here in America we eat way to much(not talking about those impoverished,Of course).Life is meant to be lived.Not sitting around thinking about what your going to eat later.
4:51 there gonna be some teeth broken among viewers
As a Russian I like your jokes guys
Same
Brilliant vid and great comedy acting, and great to see some funny stereotypes.
NALF seems such a genuine nice guy :) if you are able to take/make a joke about your own culture is a good quality i think :)
Love the 'call this a first world country'! I remember my father asking me if I wanted to take some toliet paper with me when I left for Germany the first time (he was a WWII veteran). Hate the gun part though; though I can see where it comes from. I knew I wasn't in American anymore when I first arrived for the first time at the airport in Germany and the polizi were carry around rifles on their back. I did double take. This was back in the early 90's.
I'm from Europe and bud light commercials where the greatest beer commercials ever.
3:25 open window.
This doesn't cool down the temperature
Ice in beer??? I understand frozen beer glasses, but ice??? Now I understand people supporting death penalty...
as someone who lives in austria, connected south-east from germany, i must say we are quite a lot like that. there are some things i didnt know in this video since austria isnt 100% germany, but still its quite funny seeing how others view whats basically 69% of the culture i grew up with
gnihihihi ... 69
Very good editing! I like all the cuts. How much work to find the right timing. Democracy and religion, yeah thats what we really need in germany! Please America save us with your guns 😀
germany has more democracy than US, it is true.
America saved Germany once from hunger and misery and provides security up to this day. Only idiots think it is a joke and spread antiamerican idiotic propoganda.
Last time USA saved Germany by carpet bombing the cities
America is a continent, not a country
4:41 I mean there are some different ways to open it. Maybe like 3 or 4... thousand.
Beer with ice cubes, LOL!!!! "I'm gonna call the Immigration Office!" BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!
When they said play football, we all knew what was coming next! 😆
lol yup took me about 2 milliseconds
4:10 The funniest part of this is the fact that the good old American Budwiser is actually from the Czech republic
Not true. American Budweiser (Anheuser-Busch) has nothing to do with tasty Czech Budweiser from Budweis/České Budějovice.
American: Germany need more democracy
Germany: "Full Democracy"
USA: "Flawed Democracy"
2:44 America also buy oil from russia lol
As a russian, i confidently saying that im dying of ruble joke
I’m American and while I don’t live up to most of the stereotypes, I admit I am spot on the same way about Russia as the American stereotype in the skit lmao. I would love driving the auto bahn, they have speed but also strong rules to ensure safe driving. Either way, I wonder what the German perspective on Russia is right now.
It seems very mixed. Some want the war to end immediately and have Ukraine cede territory, and others want to keep backing Ukraine until Russia gives up. I don’t live in Germany but I read their news and talk to Germans on the internet. It’s interesting in Europe the far-right and the left to far-left tends to be more sympathetic to Russia. In the US it seems that the far-right is sympathetic to Russia, but our left and far-left can’t stand Russia. The anti-Americanism seems to be based largely in US foreign policy since the Cold War, as well as the US having troops in Germany and other parts of Europe via NATO. Because of that, some Germans want to get America off their back and seem to think moving closer to Russia would be more beneficial. If Russia were a stable democracy that’d seem like a better idea, but considering it, you know… isn’t and it seems like that’s fairly short sighted
Now we try to buy less russian oil and gas but American oil is not the Alternative
"Autobahn" is one word.
Remember, we like to make one long word, out of two words
Well most Germans hate russian government (especially Putin), but don't have anything against ordinary russian people. Suspicion here and there is normal tho I guess.
@@marvintimke3978 😂😂oh, yes, you really do

Das wird definitiv ein must have seen Video, wenn meine amerikanische Familie im Sommer kommen möchte.
You should have got him to try the German chocolate. Better than the overly- sweet, tastes of vomit, kerosene wax containing junk that Hersey's churn out
True! Part 3 then 😸
You know what's better? Swiss chocolate. Lindt chocolate is simply superior to other chocolates. And the white chocolate... Give that to a suicidal person and they'll learn what they'd be missing out on.
@@Cl-2048 Nope, Cailler is clearly superior to Lindt. I'll fight you on this!!!
As a Dutchie I totally agree. This is the perfect description of Hershey's (I'm not even going to call it chocolate cause it isn't) and it's absolutely disgusting.
@@missmoon6624 try white "chocolate" taste like lard
