Yeah, we also need hunters to control the population of some wild animals like deer. Hunters need to be excellent shots, anything else would be animal cruelty.
@TRW98 In Germany you can get a license to own a gun. There are four different types depending on owner and purpose (Sport/Hunting/Collecting/). None of these allows you to carry a gun in day-to-day life. You can get a permission to carry a gun, but those are hard to get. Generally spoken it's only for money transporter staff and licensed security companies. Public security is provided by state authorities only such as customs officer, federal police or state police.
@mariokrings okay cool to know. If you have a gun other weapons for collecting is it allowed that the gun still works? Because I live in the Netherlands and so far I know it's allowed for collecting on the conditions that the gun is made unable to fire. Ofcourse we have also hunters so I think they have guns but there is only 1 kind allowed with the option of 4 calibers. Even brass knuckles and pepperspray are illegal.
Smart cars were designed and build to withstand a crash with a Mercedes S-Class. Mercedes developed the 'Tridion Safety Cell' to give drivers of a Smart a very high chance to survive a collision even with a much larger and heavier car with only minor injuries.
Once had a Smart Fortwo as rental when my Mercedes was in for inspection. I then parked my Mercedes in a right angle to the Smart with the right side aligning to the rear end of the Smart. When I looked alongside the other side the Mercedes still covered most of the front wheel. This way if you get t-boned most of the impact is taken by the chassis, not be the body! Also the Tridion cell is built to withstand high energy impacts. Additionally the low weight of the car makes sure that the car gets kicked away by the impact, eating up the impact energy!
Vodafone is a big mobile phone network operator in Europe. This commercial is pretty old, nobody bothers with like 3/60 minutes mobile plan anymore. But sure, it was a thing at one time (like 15 years ago).
@jimbo6059 I would be concerned by that offer, too! 🤣🤣 My current mobile plan gives me unlimited calling, unlimited SMS and 30 GB of high speed internet for 10 Euros!
Canal+ is a French based streaming service which I believe also does some film and tv production. Yes, we have gun ranges in Europe. Loved the Heinz commercial, I shall be laughing all day
*StudioCanal S.A.S. (formerly known as Le Studio Canal+, Canal Plus, Canal+ Distribution, Canal+ D.A., and Canal+ Production and also known as StudioCanal International) is a French film & television production and distribution company which is a subsidiary of the Canal+ Group. As of May 2024, the company has 14 production companies in Europe and the United States, and holds around 9,000 titles in its extensive film library. StudioCanal/Canal+ was founded in 1984....* ⬅🎥🎬📼📀📡📺
Of course Europe has shooting ranges. Every German shooting club has a shooting range, so does every village! And they file their shooting cards in file folders. That was a German advertisement for an eye product.
there are privat too in my neighbaring village is one where you can shoot all different guns like MG34, Bren or Maxim, Sniper Rifles, MPs old one like MP40 or newer ones like MP5 and as far as i know its no shooting club where can be a member
Of course we have shooting ranges in Europe. Most of my teenage period, I went to 15 meter ranges, shooting with .22 rifle competition. When I turned 18 or so, I joined the national guard. I had my M75 automatic military rifle at home, although without sharp ammo. I also grew up in a family of hunters. At home, we had 2 bebe rifles (one for me and my brother), a bebe pistol, my brother had a shotgun from he was 16, and my dad a shotgun too. All my uncles had rifles and shotguns. Weapons aren't illegal in Europe, they are just regulated. I live in Denmark btw.
@saladspinner3200if you think the Nordics are on another level you should look at Switzerland. Estimated 27.6 guns per 100 citizens. 2.5 million guns. And they have a gun range where people shoot across a highway. It is basically the US, but with a responsible gun culture.
@saladspinner3200 You need a hunter's licence to have anything bigger than a bebe gun in Denmark. It takes up to 6 months to get that licence, with an exam at the end. Or you can shoot competition like I did, which requires no licence. You borrow the rifle from your club, or you can buy your own rifle, but then it needs to be stored at the club. You can also do skeet shooting with shotgun, without a licence, but I don't know the rules around the weapon here. Skeet shooting is an Olympic discipline. If you look at both summer- and winter olympics, there are also competitions with .22 caliper pistols and rifles. All these competitors learned from a young age, like me, and they are from many different countries. Also Europe. I'm sure, they have something similar in Belgium. There's also bow and arrow for both competition and hunting. For hunting, you need a licence. I don't remember what the discipline is called, but it's also an Olympic competition, with many young competitors.
That Vodafone talk plan is old & defunct. Not a scam as I used it for about 3 years. It was very good as all other mobile companies charged by the minute for all calls
Now, at least in Poland, you have almost only unlimited plans where you pay a fixed monthly subscription fee and have no time charges within the country, and something like 100GB of data
I think it went right over his head. Seems to be too good to be true to an Average American, even today in 2025, when we have unlimited calls, unlimited ultra high-speed data plans for €15-50 a month, depending on the country.
@Marco-zt6fz Yes, but before that Smart was Mercedes, then a Mercedes - Renault Cooperation (That's where the car in the commercial is from) and just recently Mercedes formed a joint venture with Geely and what is now the Smart #(insert number) is made in China and FAR bigger than the original Smart Car was.
6:50 The point is they did all different dances from the past, because the end says: Guezle from the good old days (time). The Czech ketchup commercial that came right after is still my favourite though. 🤣
a big difference is that in Germany it is forbidden to roast another brand in your commercials. Like Cola and Pepsi in the US roast each other in their commercials
That's not true anymore for more than a decade. But still almost no company does it, because it doesn't helped the few companies, that tried it in there commercials, to sell more.
@T0MT0Mmmmy I, personally, would hate it if this becomes a trend in Europe. It's a typical American behavior taught to young children since kindergarten - that they are better than others, smarter than others, that nobody can beat them, that America is better than every other country .. basically instilling superiority complex into you without a basic coverage. And publicly - in an advertisement - bully your competitors, is no better, in my opinion.
Here in Czechia Hyundai failed because of that here because we don't like this anti-campaign where you tarket some other company (they targeted škoda) and Koreans just didn't understand that in our culture, this is considered cheap and disgusting if it doesn't at least have a proper humor in it.
3:34 the smart car is actually really strong and safe due to the build in safety(race) cage in it. If it would collide with a older model American car, it wil split the old car in two. Believe me…been there done that😅
The shooting one was a commercial for eye capsule vitamins . We don't advertise presciption medication in Europe in the media to the general public that's not allowed . Those were eye vitamin capscules no prescription required hence the commercial was allowed.
Bulgaria begs to differ. In Bulgaria 90% of advertisement in all time slots, is about meds. Vaginal discomfort, vaginal odors, menstrual cramps, diarrhea, bloating, prostate enlargement, kidney stones, the new kids' cough syrup - NOW WITH BLUEBERRY TASTE AND A TOY THAT COMES WITH IT - and kids jumping around screaming MOMMY MOMMY I WANT IT! ... it's fucked up. Prescription meds or not.
@alanpotter8680 in Poland too, it was a shock for me as Czech when I visited Poland for the first time and turned their TV on, it was so bizzare. We have mainly cars, mobile operators, banks and such things and Poland is like 75% some pills.
Canal+ is a private broadcasting TV channel in France (well you might say like cable TV), it's also a big producer on french or European movies, you might have seen their logo at the beginning of films
6:26 Looks Swiss to me as an Austrian. Of course we have gun ranges everywhere in Europe. Lots of hunters here, sport shooting and one of the most famous gun manufacturers globally comes from Austria: Glock!
Yes we have shooting ranges in Europe in fact some of the best firearms in the world come from Europe specifically , Austria, Switzerland , Belgium and Germany .
About that sound thing. The strangest thing for me , that had a ruff youth and know what fighting sounds like, is the bass they add. When you punch some one in the face, it sounds like a clap, no bass at all. And when you get hit, the feeling/sound is more inside your head. You don´t really hear the punch sound as such, more a numb low impact sound in your head. But, on another note, where would movie fights be without the sound effects..?
I think you didn’t got the joke of the smart car . Smarts cars were only 2 seaters . The driver turns his head back and sees another passenger and was surprised about it . Now there are smarts with 4 seats
There are shooting ranges in every bigger town in Europe, as far as I know. They are just not advertised and you have to search for them online or ask around to find them. It's not like seeing a big sign like SHOOTING RANGE next to it, like supermarkets are.
a smrt is really safe, the european admisssin is very strikt in licensing. it's safe for passengers and pedestrians. the size of the car dos not matter, it is important where to direct kinetic force. for example, a very big truck hits an object, if the truck issnt well designed the engine could move into the cabin and do a lot of damage. but if the engine will will move underneath the cabin on impact the ppl will be safe. same with small cars, as long as the impact force will be around the cabin, it's all safe. szre nothing is a 100% and there will be ways to to do more harm, but the sides of a car are allways the weak points, no matter the size
We have a pistol shooting range in the southern pylon of the Sydney Harbour Bridge in Sydney & there is a rifle range several kilometres up the road from our property. We have seen shooting ranges in Europe during our trips.
Smart cars are safe! Its solid steel barrier and loads of air bags. Watch a video a 2x bigger car going into a smart car, the smart car slices into the other car haha
re Smart car: driving in Europe is a very different experience than in the US and in many cases a lot more practical when it comes to parking, narrow roads, distance, etc. Owning a car is also very pricey. The bigger the car the more expensive it is. Obvious, but this also translates to the amount of road tax we pay.
That with the smart was completely "missed". The funny thing is smart was for 2, but then the driver sees a third person in the vehicle and gets jump-scared. That was all of it but still 100% on point.
BTW in Oz ph plans both pre & post paid have unlimited phone & text calls included! really it is only about the data included in the plan that makes them more expensive! Even in Oz we have shooting ranges too, though not many!
gun ranges are in the uk as well as the eu union ,in Austria you are taught how to use a firearm when you are young and in adult to practice but yet hardly any crime in austria to do with firearms.
Even in Greece there are multiple gun ranges, people do own guns rifled or smoothbored . During the Athens Olympics I was volunteer in the shooting venue and the local shooting clubs that were volunteering on the sports side were salivating over the quality of the installation. I had several skeet clays (I used to smoke back then) and we used the clays for ashtrays. Also, a lot of the athletes were also smoking. Edit: Vodafone had a large share in the Verizon wireless business. When the ad was released Vodafone was the largest carrier in the world with networks in many countries. I used to work for Vf Greece and sometimes I got emails meant for an Australian guy with very similar name to mine.
Hi Joel! I'm so looking forward to your reaction to these. I imagine your kid brother would get a real kick from some of them. 😅 It always surprises me how prudish most Americans are.
For me the best Vodafone commercials are actually the Christmas ones in Portugal. I think they've won some awards on some - it's more visual than speaking in Portuguese, but I'm sure that subtitles are available.
Your videos make me happy because of your fresh perspective. And canal+ is a tv canal, duh. I forgot wish country. My grandparents had it in the 90s on some Satellite we used, Eutelsat.. Small cities have no cable tv. An of course we have gun ranges in Europe, we just don't use our inner cities as gun range. And those Vital Capsules are something to eat, mostly blueberry extract. And we also have strong laws against scams in advertising.
The following I personally have seen lots of times when I was the same age as the younger couple. The laugh they have in the end has to be the most European thing I ever saw on freeTV: ruclips.net/video/CY9FAXFS6jA/video.html
lol I’m Aussie I can tell you there are definitely gun rangers in Europe …my sister and I were in latvia and we were asked if we wanted to do a surprise tour …turns out the tour was at a gun range and we shot guns for 3 hours ….
Very funny... May be the Vodafone ad highlights British humour? Canal+ is a streaming option. That was a very imaginative commercial story. Very French. Thanks, enjoyed the video.
As others have already pointed out - the smart cars are very safe. They are built like a cage and are exceptionally sturdy, however whiplash can be an issue due to the small size. What stopped the brand from being an overwhelming success is that the cars are quite pricey for their size. Sure, they are also pretty high quality, but you simply don't get a lot of car for your money.
Hello from Norway, of course we have shooting ranges in Europe, I am there once a week and practice on the 800 meter range with my old Mauser M98K (heavily modified) about one in ten Norwegians have one or more firearms and hunt or shoot for competition... And it's much the same in the rest of Europe. The difference here is that we buy weapons in special Hunting and fishing/weapon shops with specialists behind the counter and have to apply to the police for permission before we can receive the weapon... We must also have either a hunter's license or membership in a shooting team and of course a fairly clean record of conduct.
The commercial with the banana is originally much longer and that is why you miss the clue. In the full commercial you mainly see women who find it uncomfortable to eat a banana. That is why the squeezed version in a bottle is less uncomfortable. The clue of the commercial with the Smart is that the original Smart only has 2 seats, so no back seat with room for two more people. The driver is not used to his 4-person Smart and is therefore startled when he looks back.
Of course there are shooting ranges in Europe. I, a Dutchman, have shot for years with everything that goes "boom". My favorite handgun was an IMI Desert Eagle .50. When you ran out of bullets you always had a solid piece of iron in your hands :-)
I live in a small town surrounded by many small villages (some below 1k population), and every village has its own shooting range for his "Schützenverein".
here in Czechia, I live between 3 thousand people city and 1 thousand people village and I have gun fire from 3 side - from police shooting range, from local shooting range and from hunters in forests 😀 I am that used to it that I don't even notice it, but I still hear stupid highway, that's something I will never get used to
10:50 That's the whole idea of the ad. Duh. Short, on point. And those are multiple ads, not the same thing running one after another. Plus, that's probably from the 2000s - when mobile services were expensive. I want to believe that all Europe now have unlimited calls, texts and 4/5G internet for a fixed monthly fee. I pay €18 for unlimited calls and 300Mbps internet within my country, unlimited calls while abroad (but not when calling abroad from home - which is still pocket change per minute), 50 GB traffic within EU - which is more than enough for a 2 week vacation - more, if you take advantage of wifi networks. If I'm staying longer, I just get a local number. It's pretty neat.
Canal+ is a French pay-TV channel, and Guetsli is a Swiss German word for sweet bakeries. Therefore, the scientists are supposed to be Swiss scientists.
I've seen many American reactors react to this specific compilation, and there are 2 commercials almost none of them seem to get. The one with the dog and Ikea, and the one with the screenwriter for Canal + . They are absolutely hilarious, but apperantly not suited for the American sense of humour.
I don't know if you read this one, but I would highly recommend a video from the channel "Not just bikes" that talks about the safety regarding to cars, i guess it's called: "These stupid trucks are literally killing us"
Safety is absolutely not an argument against small cars. The Smart and other smaller cars are built according to modern aspects to reduce accident damage. Is fear the reason why there are so many insanely large cars and insanely wide roads in the USA? Compared to a truck, all cars are small, so according to this argument it would make sense for everyone to drive a truck. Or even a tank?
The Smart for TWO - began with a x4 star rating - embarrassing many larger cars - The Tridium Safety Cell - which you can see from the side, around the door frames. It can only get better. Can cruise upto 130 km/h. The engineering is far more concentrated than larger cars - one reason why to pay for it, it couldn't compete on cost in Australia.
That's a strangely PHALLIC microphone. Then you say 0:58, "One problem with eating a banana, you don't know who's watching you." Coincidence? I think not. What are you trying to tell us. Joel? 🤪
Why wouldnt we have shooting ranges? Yea we do, we have guns in Europe. We just dont buy them at the bakery or walmart with our groceries.
This and laws and restrictions are far tighter than in the US.
Yeah, we also need hunters to control the population of some wild animals like deer. Hunters need to be excellent shots, anything else would be animal cruelty.
It depends where you live. I can't buy a gun legally. I think there are some shooting ranges but I have never heard about one or seen one.
@TRW98 In Germany you can get a license to own a gun. There are four different types depending on owner and purpose (Sport/Hunting/Collecting/). None of these allows you to carry a gun in day-to-day life. You can get a permission to carry a gun, but those are hard to get. Generally spoken it's only for money transporter staff and licensed security companies. Public security is provided by state authorities only such as customs officer, federal police or state police.
@mariokrings okay cool to know. If you have a gun other weapons for collecting is it allowed that the gun still works? Because I live in the Netherlands and so far I know it's allowed for collecting on the conditions that the gun is made unable to fire.
Ofcourse we have also hunters so I think they have guns but there is only 1 kind allowed with the option of 4 calibers.
Even brass knuckles and pepperspray are illegal.
Seeing ketchup in a whole new light now.
Smart cars were designed and build to withstand a crash with a Mercedes S-Class. Mercedes developed the 'Tridion Safety Cell' to give drivers of a Smart a very high chance to survive a collision even with a much larger and heavier car with only minor injuries.
They are surrounded by roll bars under the panels, very safe.
Once had a Smart Fortwo as rental when my Mercedes was in for inspection. I then parked my Mercedes in a right angle to the Smart with the right side aligning to the rear end of the Smart. When I looked alongside the other side the Mercedes still covered most of the front wheel. This way if you get t-boned most of the impact is taken by the chassis, not be the body! Also the Tridion cell is built to withstand high energy impacts. Additionally the low weight of the car makes sure that the car gets kicked away by the impact, eating up the impact energy!

Verizon was co-founded by Vodafone.
It is a worldwide concern.

Interesting fact mate. That Heinz ad idea was taken directly from a Swedish movie at least 14 years ago and that ad is circa 2016 or earlier.
Yep,I thought so,'The Ketchup Effect'(aka 'Hip Hip Hora') from 2004,directed by Teresa Fabik.👌👍

I think you didn’t got the joke of the smart car . Smarts cars were only 2 seaters . The driver turns his head back and sees another passenger and was surprised about it . Now there are smarts with 4 seats
It's European humor. He didn't get the Vodafone one, either. Especially it being English.
Canal + Is a paying tv channel in France. They have studio canal which produces tv shows and movies. They'd be the French equivalent of Sky in the UK.
There is a shooting range in next village I live in. The village has about 80 inhabitants.
What happened to the banana advert did you skip it
Surprised the heinz one made it in considering the smoothie one got cut out.
The thing about Smart cars is that the body panels are plastic and the engine is from a motorcycle.
They have 100 mpg on a 5 metric gallon fuel tank.
That Cookies are from Switzerland

Smarts are actually so much safer than most big cars.
CANAL+ is a European Tv channel.
re Smart car: driving in Europe is a very different experience than in the US and in many cases a lot more practical when it comes to parking, narrow roads, distance, etc. Owning a car is also very pricey. The bigger the car the more expensive it is. Obvious, but this also translates to the amount of road tax we pay.
and despite its size it's VERY SAFE. Joels concern was the on the mind of its engineers from day 1 and they solved it masterfully.
Smart was originally the brainchild of Swiss watch company Swatch Watch. They enlisted Mercedes Benz when it became too big for them.
That with the smart was completely "missed". The funny thing is smart was for 2, but then the driver sees a third person in the vehicle and gets jump-scared. That was all of it but still 100% on point.
Joel you slightly blushing during HEINZ Ketchup advert was the clear winner.
they opted for this approach in which country? sounded Eastern European...
@embreis2257 Czech Rep and it is quite old commercial
@embreis2257 It's from the Czech Republic. The creators borrowed the theme from the Swedish film Hip Hip Hora (The Ketchup Effect).
BTW in Oz ph plans both pre & post paid have unlimited phone & text calls included! really it is only about the data included in the plan that makes them more expensive! Even in Oz we have shooting ranges too, though not many!
gun ranges are in the uk as well as the eu union ,in Austria you are taught how to use a firearm when you are young and in adult to practice but yet hardly any crime in austria to do with firearms.
So funny, most of the times, watch his face, he just didn't get it 😂😂😂
Even in Greece there are multiple gun ranges, people do own guns rifled or smoothbored . During the Athens Olympics I was volunteer in the shooting venue and the local shooting clubs that were volunteering on the sports side were salivating over the quality of the installation. I had several skeet clays (I used to smoke back then) and we used the clays for ashtrays. Also, a lot of the athletes were also smoking. Edit: Vodafone had a large share in the Verizon wireless business. When the ad was released Vodafone was the largest carrier in the world with networks in many countries. I used to work for Vf Greece and sometimes I got emails meant for an Australian guy with very similar name to mine.
Hi Joel! I'm so looking forward to your reaction to these. I imagine your kid brother would get a real kick from some of them. 😅 It always surprises me how prudish most Americans are.
sad that the german coastguard one wasnt part of this, its my favourite^^.
That ist great :-)
For me the best Vodafone commercials are actually the Christmas ones in Portugal. I think they've won some awards on some - it's more visual than speaking in Portuguese, but I'm sure that subtitles are available.
ofcourse we have gunranges in europe. i personally own more than a dozent firearms for sportshooting and hunting.
Your videos make me happy because of your fresh perspective. And canal+ is a tv canal, duh. I forgot wish country.
My grandparents had it in the 90s on some Satellite we used, Eutelsat..
Small cities have no cable tv.
An of course we have gun ranges in Europe, we just don't use our inner cities as gun range. And those Vital Capsules are something to eat, mostly blueberry extract.
And we also have strong laws against scams in advertising.
What makes the HEINZ Ketchup advert even funnier... READ what it says on the label... "JIZ" ( jiż od r. 1869) 🤣🤣🤣😎
It's již which means since but I get what you mean.😂
The following I personally have seen lots of times when I was the same age as the younger couple. The laugh they have in the end has to be the most European thing I ever saw on freeTV: ruclips.net/video/CY9FAXFS6jA/video.html
lol I’m Aussie I can tell you there are definitely gun rangers in Europe …my sister and I were in latvia and we were asked if we wanted to do a surprise tour …turns out the tour was at a gun range and we shot guns for 3 hours ….
Hello Joel. Try reading"Subliminal Seduction" about advertising.
Very funny... May be the Vodafone ad highlights British humour? Canal+ is a streaming option. That was a very imaginative commercial story. Very French. Thanks, enjoyed the video.
the ketchup thing was funny!
As others have already pointed out - the smart cars are very safe. They are built like a cage and are exceptionally sturdy, however whiplash can be an issue due to the small size. What stopped the brand from being an overwhelming success is that the cars are quite pricey for their size. Sure, they are also pretty high quality, but you simply don't get a lot of car for your money.
Hello from Norway, of course we have shooting ranges in Europe, I am there once a week and practice on the 800 meter range with my old Mauser M98K (heavily modified) about one in ten Norwegians have one or more firearms and hunt or shoot for competition... And it's much the same in the rest of Europe. The difference here is that we buy weapons in special Hunting and fishing/weapon shops with specialists behind the counter and have to apply to the police for permission before we can receive the weapon... We must also have either a hunter's license or membership in a shooting team and of course a fairly clean record of conduct.
3:07 if you don't know the smart, the reason he gets a shock, the orginal smart, only had 2 seats, so someone sitting in the back is scary :)
H.J. Heinz and Co is very much American. Pennsylvanian.
The commercial with the banana is originally much longer and that is why you miss the clue. In the full commercial you mainly see women who find it uncomfortable to eat a banana. That is why the squeezed version in a bottle is less uncomfortable. The clue of the commercial with the Smart is that the original Smart only has 2 seats, so no back seat with room for two more people. The driver is not used to his 4-person Smart and is therefore startled when he looks back.
5:13 You can easily look it up. What is this?
Canal + is french public TV
Im guessing Canal+ is a french TVchannel.....
True fruits is a quite pricey smoothie brand from Germany. Freaking delicious, but pricey.
That ketchup commercial 🤣
Definitely like & comment!!! ❤
Of course there are shooting ranges in Europe. I, a Dutchman, have shot for years with everything that goes "boom". My favorite handgun was an IMI Desert Eagle .50. When you ran out of bullets you always had a solid piece of iron in your hands :-)
I live in a small town surrounded by many small villages (some below 1k population), and every village has its own shooting range for his "Schützenverein".
They are the original militia.
here in Czechia, I live between 3 thousand people city and 1 thousand people village and I have gun fire from 3 side - from police shooting range, from local shooting range and from hunters in forests 😀 I am that used to it that I don't even notice it, but I still hear stupid highway, that's something I will never get used to
10:50 That's the whole idea of the ad. Duh. Short, on point. And those are multiple ads, not the same thing running one after another. Plus, that's probably from the 2000s - when mobile services were expensive. I want to believe that all Europe now have unlimited calls, texts and 4/5G internet for a fixed monthly fee. I pay €18 for unlimited calls and 300Mbps internet within my country, unlimited calls while abroad (but not when calling abroad from home - which is still pocket change per minute), 50 GB traffic within EU - which is more than enough for a 2 week vacation - more, if you take advantage of wifi networks. If I'm staying longer, I just get a local number. It's pretty neat.
Canal+ is a French pay-TV channel, and Guetsli is a Swiss German word for sweet bakeries. Therefore, the scientists are supposed to be Swiss scientists.
hello,canal + is a French broadcasting.
I've seen many American reactors react to this specific compilation, and there are 2 commercials almost none of them seem to get. The one with the dog and Ikea, and the one with the screenwriter for Canal + . They are absolutely hilarious, but apperantly not suited for the American sense of humour.
I don't know if you read this one, but I would highly recommend a video from the channel "Not just bikes" that talks about the safety regarding to cars, i guess it's called: "These stupid trucks are literally killing us"
What happened to the bananas. Don't you eat fruits in th US? 😲
Excellent commercial by IKEA. Never seen it before, but very funny nevertheless.
I pay 10 quid with unlimired phone calls and free texts , i do not use the internet on the phone although i have a limit on it so i do not use it .
Canal+ is like HBO ^^
You've been working out, haven't you? Looking more buff than I remember
Safety is absolutely not an argument against small cars. The Smart and other smaller cars are built according to modern aspects to reduce accident damage.
Is fear the reason why there are so many insanely large cars and insanely wide roads in the USA?
Compared to a truck, all cars are small, so according to this argument it would make sense for everyone to drive a truck. Or even a tank?
The Smart for TWO - began with a x4 star rating - embarrassing many larger cars - The Tridium Safety Cell - which you can see from the side, around the door frames. It can only get better. Can cruise upto 130 km/h.
The engineering is far more concentrated than larger cars - one reason why to pay for it, it couldn't compete on cost in Australia.
Oops - spelt Tridion wrong 😮
smart car is safer than you think. 70mph crash into re-enforced concrete barriers and you can still open and close the doors
That's a strangely PHALLIC microphone. Then you say 0:58, "One problem with eating a banana, you don't know who's watching you." Coincidence? I think not. What are you trying to tell us. Joel? 🤪
