1. Amish are awesome people 2. Amish do generally smell bad due to no deodorant, and lots of hard work 3. Rumspringe is their chance to experience the "English" lifestyle, most of them do actually come back 4. The "English" are generally just modern American people.
I live in Lancaster and have Amish neighbors. Amish are a religious sect under the umbrella of Anabaptists. There are different orders with different rules. Some are more strict than others. Farmland is getting scarce, and more are going into business, such as furniture manufacturing and construcion. The "English" are anyone from the "outside." So, technically, I suppose you would be considered as English too. The vast majority are really good and nice people. But they are human beings, and as humans, there are good ones and bad ones. Say what you want about the horse and buggies, I've never seen two of them in a head-on collision. Be very wary of the TV reality shows. The Amish Mafia was complete B.S. Lebanon Levi was actually from a small town near where I grew up.
I delivered freight to a Amish building center. They constructed purpose designed metal buildings. Their factory had up to date technology machines. They brought in rolls of steel . They rolled the metal corrugations then sprayed the custom colors. Baked on the color. The entire process. But the office girl wore a plain shirt and longer skirt. Her hair was single braided down her back abd when she sat on the simple wood 3 legged stool the braid reached below the chair seat. The factory was computerized the office was run on paper. They had a fleet of new construction equipment and trucks. Of course their building was pretty fancy in a warehouse kind of sense. Then I delivered to another Amish settlement. They had one telephone set attached to a pole in the middle of their "main street" and the whole place was horse driven. I had 2 thousand pound Square bales of hay. I backed under a A frame and kicked thr bales off to a horse drawn wagon . one kid kicked a bale off the side onto their wagon. The father cussed him out like any body would except it was all in German
The Amish have a deep Dutch accent. They call all non-Amish the English. Shane is 100% accurate about the smell. When I was younger, I realized that only hippies and Amish knew how to make soap, but both groups seemed to be afraid to actually use it- made me wonder what insight they had that I was missing.
This studio you've created is great. Plus you closer to the camera is so much better for us viewers. We can pick up on your cute and hilarious expressions that make you so adorable. Lighting is perfect. Nice job, Britt. Great setup indeed.
15:30I grew up in the country, literally next door to an old order Mennonite family and they were terrible people. They tortured and killed my dog. I don’t think you can an be “born into a religion” I think most of these people are deeply unhappy and wish that they had been born into a normal family and they only stay because of shunning.
Yes alot of Amish smell bad as 1) they work hard 2) don't have indoor plumbing 3) don't take baths that often due to that 4) most Girls and women don't shave due to religion unless they are more advanced sect
Yup, I have seen this happen out in Pennsylvania, just outside of Penn State where I received my Ph.D. Buggy s Quakers, going down the highway at about 20 miles an hour on mountain terrain, a vehicle slams them from the back going 65 killing the people including the horses... Darealdeal
With how crazy technology, AI, and social media have become, making it hard to even find true information these days, maybe the Amish were on to something about the no electronics 😂😅
Hey Brit, I’m no expert but Ari shaffirs comedy special Jew explains many of the questions you ask. Probably not a reaction video but an educational production that has humor.
2nd comment and going off of my former Amish buddy John. It’s a religious based culture and John doubled down and said it more resembles a type of cult. But the Old order like my buddy is from looks at the ones up north like the rest of us look at segments California or Florida. But no. Unless you actually someone from the Amish extremely well??? You’re not going to hear what goes on. Yes they’ve got alcoholics, child predators, incest and some other issues. They just keep it all to themselves and settle things themselves. While pretty much thinking the rest of us are going to burn in hell.
as a pennsylvanian I can say this all accurate as it gets for the amish also it's kinda like an ethnic religion like Jewish people, because they all are descended from German immigrant farmers and are very similar to quakers in that respect, but anybody can join, I've known a couple black and one Asian amish and Mennonite people, also the difference between mennonite and Amish is that they hate each other, that's about it kinda like Scotland and ireland
they are literally stuck in a time similar to when they were ruled by kings, that came here to break away from it and practice their religion / lifestyle with out persecutions
Amish guy on RUclips Eli Yoder has videos about his old order Amish. They only took a bath once a week before church and do not use deodorant. He describes the first time leaving the Amish and being told to wear deodorant. Very funny interesting videos about the Amish.
😂😂😂 I agree up in southern middle Tennessee with some of the Old Order Amish. Had a buddy who was kicked out. He shared the exact same name as about 10,000 other Amish 😂 John Yoder. The stories he told me would FLOOR most people. But yeahhhhhhhh a good whiff of some Tennessee Amish when it’s 100 degrees outside will make your damn eyes water. 😂😂😂😂 Gotta let the Long John Silvers air out for a few minutes in the summer before you go grab your 3 days of greasy fish burps. It’s NOT talking bad about them. It’s just how it is. My buddy John was a middle child of 15 kids and talked about how miserably hot it was. 😂😂😂 He wrecked his first vehicle 5 damn times in less than a year.
Britt listen to snl weekend update point/ counter point. Jane curtain and dan th 1970's ..yes it's about modern relationships it's funny and short one..😅
😂😂😂 3rd comment. Noooooooo they don’t use anything to cover the smell. I talked about my buddy Amish John. Middle child of 15. He said that they took a bath ONCE a week. And they all used the same water in a tub. And the order went oldest to youngest. Dad, mom, and then the kids took turns. 😂😂😂 Theo talking about the romance of it. 😂😂😂 The romance stops when the eyes start watering. John said “The younger you were the darker the water was by the time it was your turn to wash.”. He also told me that they thought that black people were basically the devils spawn. He said they would be nice but they were scared of black folks.
The Amish make THE BEST chairs, sliding chairs, Rocking chairs, Etc. They are SOOOO comfortable!!!!! I go to Pa. to visit family on vacation. And Northern Pa. And Ohio is Amish country!!!!!
Yes, Britt, you would be English. No true Amish would purposely go on a show to be recorded or photographed, although communities do have people who are chosen for those needs - usually an Elder. The Amish are mostly really pleasant people who live a rough life in modern respects. You do see them in cities for business or to see historic sites. They hire drivers. They shun any Amish person who is not respecting the faith as an adult. Shunning is a complete cut-off. Openly LGBT does not exist. Those people have to leave the order to live outside the community to live as their true selves. Same for the Mormon faith and many other strict religious households. Their smell is obviously referring to the natural soaps they use and the no perfume beliefs. Older youth have a chance to test faith and order to go out in the real world, having to choose to return or leave forever. Obviously, most return - as the English world is overwhelming - and the Amish community still thrives. I have a few Amish and Menonite friends from local farm markets, and two who left to live their lives more freely in Philly.
It’s a problem for humanity to be trapped in a repressive cult. Amish and Hasidic culture is a terrible idea…not to say anything negative individual people. The lifestyle itself is inappropriate
Tremendous accomplishment requiring a skill set possessed by very few!!! Can’t imagine how you pulled it off!!! 🎈🎊 Congratulations!!! 🎊🎈 Here’s your participation trophy 🏆
Have you done Ari Shaffir's special called "jew" ? You'd die laughing
OMG, that last quip. "Cocaine, you know how much we could get done around here?" lmao
Yes Britt, you would be English. They refer to anyone who isn’t Amish as English, which in no way, however, is considered as being “from England.”

Shane has a degree in history and taught abroad in Spain. He just pretends to be a goofball.😂
He also played D1 football, a war veteran and starred on SNL
He also invented the hamburger and made 11 holes in one the first time he played golf. He was born under a double rainbow.
@@brianyaniro4797 what I said was true.
@@owdeezstrauz I know.
you dont have to be smart to remember history lol. its not like you have to do calculus to figure out who the presidents were
There’s a significant Amish presence on my area of Maine. They make great donuts.
The Amish make good furniture too
We bought an outdoor table set from a place in Eastampton Township that could survive Armageddon.
Using people as furniture is unethical
They're just great craftsmen, I live in northern Pennsylvania and a lot of people will hire Amish guys to do the roofs on their houses.
Yes alot of Amish smell bad as 1) they work hard
2) don't have indoor plumbing

Every Amish person I have talked to they were nice and respectful. And they ard the best cooks in the world.

I Surprised Amish People by Speaking Pennsylvania Dutch. Would be worth a watch for your curiosity about some some Amish culture.
