The stat that says that Berlin is a net negative for Germany is quite outdated, and it's important to note that many German cities are quite strong, economically, which skews Berlin down more than, let's say, other French cities and Paris.

"her vibe as a depressed art student will be vital for getting her in" loll that's pretty accurate
It’s sad that a depressed vibe is considered good.
@@FuZZbaLLbee Where do they claim it as being good? It's just a ticket for getting into a club made for and by similar people.
As long as you're not a mentally destroyed person you'd get nowhere in Berlin !

I am a reguar at Berghain (I even have the Berghain logo tattooed) and can confirm that this is pretty accurate and not cringe like many other videos about Berghain.
An absolute honor. Thank you
same.
I think it is well researched. Just one think was strange. That someone thinks, that the bouncers would more likely refuse people, that do not look like a german person.
Sure 😂
I remember seeing this name in a dream where it swapped places with Washington DC. The sea level was different, and North America was sparsely populated. The world capital was on the Azores. The dream was set in a different zodiac age.
Sven Marquart has stated in interviews that they pick the guests aiming to create the right blend of people. Each night is supposed to be an unforgettable party, it takes a certain blend of ages, sexualities, nationalities and styles.
Yes, there are some guidelines that will help your chances to get in as stated in the video, but often it comes down to pure chanse.
Like the doorpolicy or not, if you have been in there, you can't deny they do an amazing job in selecting a great crowd. It in not just the young, cool and beautiful. It is not just middle-aged gay men, or only germans, or only tourists. It is all kinds of people.
Since everyone knows they might be turned away, everyone who gets in enters the building with a feeling of euphoria, a feeling of having been selected.
It is all a game of psychology, and it works!
You get in and you feel this amazing rush of exitement that carries you into the party.
I have been to Berghain many times, and that feeling still hits me every time.
Berghain is for those who got in that night. They will experience something amazing, but this magic trick only works if four out of every five people in the line gets rejected.
this is some facts
Sounds like they enjoy wasting the time of paying clientele. Sounds like a gross & elitist ideology with a veneer of mystique to make it more palatable to posers.
Have fun with all that, I'll just find a welcoming little club with an approachable door staff because I value not having my time wasted.
Make each second spent inside a reward, and the patrons will behave themselves more. Easy as that.
Such a great summary

That ad transition is unbelievable!
Too smooth, almost got fooled
Best I've ever seen
Why do people actually like being tricked into listening to ads?
@@SimonTangers I much rather prefer an ad that blends in well and is relevant than feeling interrupted and having to watch some ad about something uninteresting
@@SimonTangers I see what you mean but how do you skip the ad? Just jumping forward until the ad is gone?
If I am close to the keyboard then I do the same, but when am I far away then I just sit back and watch it to the end. Lazy, I know.
This is easily the most creative merch idea in a long time. Ordered immediately.
Having a litte Berghain in ones room is really rad
@@mattoni553I'm gay too buddy
@@kylekorona not only that I fear
😂❤
If you get inside, its mostly just another club. but i have to admit there is a special atmosphere surrounding it.
Also the Hitman level "Berlin" is a reference to that club, its a great level
club holle, apex predator, one of best levels in hitamn only downside is its piss poor implementation of agents
Came here to ask if that hitman level was related. Thanks for confirming!!
@@tastyboi2163 the bouncer next to entrence is also inspired by sven, also just to make clear, Club Holle was inspired by few clubs not only berghein
I found out about Berghain because of Hitman. That really is the best level.
Except the dark rooms. Sadly there aren't many clubs out there that have dark rooms and differently themed sex-positive rooms.
As someone who loves the techno scene here, I really appreciate that this comment section is so understanding and didn't immediately judge the club for being "exclusive". There are plenty of great clubs in Berlin and yet so many tourists try to get into Berghain, simply because they want to tick it off their bucket list. That spirit can bring a nervous, judgy and unrelaxed vibe to the club.
If you come to Berlin and are interested in the techno scene, here are some lesser known (outside of Berlin) but great places:
- RSO: Similar style as Berghain, dark, fast, monotous and meditative
- Else: Outdoor club with varying genres, great soundsystem and amazing atmosphere
- Club Ost: More popular among early 20s crowds, also varying genres and mostly good vibes
Most importantly: Don't come when there's a famous DJ, because it will attract tourists, more rejections. Check the DJs out on Soundcloud and follow the sounds you like. And welcome to the scene!
Went to Tresor while in Berlin, of course more of a 'mainstream' club, but the atmosphere walking towards towards the basement, with smoke blocking any vision more than 1 meter away, stroboscopes, the metal bars everywhere, the hard techno, everything, was unmatched by any club after.
My personal recommendation, just across the street of Club Ost: renate. Best vibes ever
i dont recomend looking the dj up at all. just go in without any expectations
Void club also plays techno sometimes, a lot smaller but it's easy to get into and cheap
i am a canadian and really wanted to try and get in to berghain. i just want to come and dance to techno and understand the vibe of the people in there. is it that frowned upon for tourists? or are you talking about the people that dont understand the scene and just are coming because of the berghain fame?
I went to Berghain a few weeks ago on a recent work trip to Berlin. I'm 33 now, but I've been multiple times since I was 19. As some other posters have said, Berghain is *just* a club, and you can find many spinoffs of it in other cities in the world. What Berghain has that many of the others don't, though, is: scale (it's massive), commitment to aesthetic (you don't find an old East German power plant anywhere anymore), freedom (you can kinda do whatever you want within reason), and originality (it is the remnant of an older era of Berlin and partying that doesn't really exist organically anymore).
The world changes, and so do the meanings of places, but what has remained so impressive about Berghain is its ability to maintain its identity and values in a constantly changing world. It abhors voyeurism and nightlife tourism, and I am fully behind the club's rejection of people who are there for the wrong reasons, even if it means I've been rejected 30% of the time for not being German. Just like the Brooklyn hipster aesthetic has permeated many corners of the globe, so has Berghain/Berlin-style nightlife. It's the CBGBs of this era of techno.
On my most recent visit, I did feel like the crowd was becoming a bit of a parody of itself, but maybe that's just me being 33 instead of 27 (my previous visit there). I still had a great time, but something inside of me felt like the era of Berghain would be soon coming to a close. I feel 5-10 more years.
5-10 years will pass by quick! Not that long.
Techno has gotten really popular recently, similar to how electro and progressive house got really popular and commercialised in the 2010s. So there are a lot of people who jump on the bandwagon without that genuine natural love for the music, and are just not self aware enough to appreciate the way crowds and atmospheres at techno events should be. So yeah, I'd say clubs like this are going to quickly deteriorate in terms of enjoyability for the people who truly love techno and only add positively to the atmosphere of the dancefloor. You see more and more dickheads taking stickers off their cameras to take pictures inside clubs these days, it should result in an instant lifetime ban
@@Dom-fw7nz So is there a no filming policy in many clubs then? What stickers are you talking about?:D Do they make you put on a sticker on your camera?:D
@@-AxisA- yeah for privacy they cover your cameras with stickers
@@-AxisA- yes in many clubs (especially in Berlin) no cameras are allowed. They put stickers on your phone cameras. It makes a better experience for everyone. Taking it off is insane disrespect and selfishness.
The ice cream bar was my highlight. Didn’t remember much else.
stretched out?
the first time I went I ate icecream with a middle aged office worker from Hamburg who spent 2 hours lamenting how much he hated his job, truly a unique place
@@ottohashmi Is it actually THAT hard to get in? LikeIf there is 100 people in line whats the ratio?
@@StonedSpagooter Like 10-20% depending on the night
@StonedSpagooter I think if you're into techno and club culture then you're generally gonna give the right vibe to the door staff. I think it's hard to fake, and hard to define.
This must be the building with the most interesting stories in the world tbh
The marketing behind it is probably the only truly interesting thing about it.
@@waterturtle2919 Most people that go to Berghain are regulars. Yes, Berghain could easily fill their floors with the hordes of tourists that want to get in on a given weekend-but they don't, for the reasons outlined in the video.
So marketing may make you come through the door the first time. The experiences, friendships and adventures are what makes you come back.
@@theceohq It couldnt fill the floor with hordes of tourists because that would destroy its marketing scheme.
Thats the entire point behind artificial rarity and the same principle thats behind diamonds.
If it was a club with regular entry policies, it would be just another edgy club in Berlin. No one would talk about it, no one would care.
@theceohq I wouldn't have said any better.
Berghain and the Lab are an experience that becomes something that feels like your own place.
vilest filth
Details, sense of humour and the graphics breakdowns all add up to a fantastic video - looks like I've got a new youtube channel to binge.
Welcome
“Loud British men equipped with puffy north face jackets and piles of make up that happen to come with a British girl attached” 😂😂😂
😂😂 its so true. I used to go to the Subclub a lot and you'd see a group like that queuing up in the freezing g cold knowing there's not a chance they're getting in but its Glasgow so it's better not to say anything and let the bouncers deal with it andd they're all sound.
I love berghain, have been dozens of times... never once rejected! It is a bit ironic because I went there initially not even knowing much about techno or berlin clubbing, but I guess they liked what they saw from me and let me in regardless. It turned out to be something way beyone what I expected, a totally immersive experience where yes the crowd does really matter. It is hard to put into words. I love the place and will return when I can.
sure buddy
Dang
What made them accept you? (It came out rude but it is a genuine question). Did you have to dress a certain way or have a certain amount of money or something like that?
I love when people lie in RUclips comments... so cool bro
@chamelion2879 Let's just say that I look like I'd be at home in the Laboratory.
Large septum piercing, bridge piercing between my eyes, gay on the harder side of things...
But one of my former colleagues from work who's a very clean and proper blonde girl right out of an Enyd Blyton's kids book, managed to pass the door and had quite the adventure of her life that she wasn't expecting nor was prepared for. 🤣.
I don't know how, but she managed to catch a glimpse of the Lab, and she remembered it vividly.
Some of my friends are more mainstream looking and just pass the door without issues either.
I'd say you can be a tourist, and look like one, but you should wear or express on your face the idea that you're prepared to experience it fully and not be a spectator at the zoo.
Another door that's supposed to be difficult but it's just a question of vibe and looks or dress code is the KitKatclub, another wonderful club where you can be yourself without much limits.
If you're half rejected at KitKat, just undress and you'll pass, as you can be naked.
They'll prefer that over an outfit that doesn't fit well with the crowds of the night.
wow, i cant believe they made the hitman 3 berlin nightclub level into a real thing
Almost as cool as when they built Los Angeles after GTA5.
I was just thinking that!
I got to go to Berghain for CTM as a guest of one of the headliners for the festival and had full run of the place more or less. They let us into the club a few hours early for soundcheck and got to meet all the staff and management which was super cool. Gave us access to the green rooms and let us have all the food and drinks from the green rooms we pleased. Was really cool to see beyond what regular patrons who get in are able to see, we also had our own door we got to use to the left of the main door everybody lines up for. We literally got to break all the rules of the line, being foreigners dressed however we wanted and getting to talk to each other in line. A group of about 10 of us all got to go as part of my producer friends rider. Still have the orange stickers they put over my phone cameras even though I don’t even have that phone anymore. It was certainly quite the experience being from the North American west coast rave scene getting that kind of access in such an exclusive club. One of the greatest memories I will ever have
nice to hear you didn't respect the place, it's customs or it's unwritten rules.
@@jamesdrummond7684 we got to break the rules of waiting in line because we were guest listed. Management literally came out and met us to bring us in. We got to stand to the left of the line just chatting amongst ourselves, we got in and we behaved. We didn’t do anything against the rules inside by any means and I don’t know where you may be conceiving this from what I wrote. You’d think if we were hanging out with the crew that we were pretty well behaved 😂, I also don’t know how you took my comment for anything but showing my admiration of the place which would imply that we respected it
@@jamesdrummond7684 can you explain to me what exactly we did incorrectly? When I say loud and obnoxious what I mean is that we got to stand to the left of the line and chat as a group of friends stoked to see their friend about to play at Berghain about to be let in our own door by management while everybody else had to stand in line all serous. Yeah, we broke that rule because we had permission to break that rule.. management literally came out and met us at the door to bring us in. We still all got stickers on our phones. Nobody took any pictures. We got to have an experience as a group of friends from a far away place that not many people get to do. We didn’t do anything unbecoming inside, we had fun, we were allowed access to the green rooms and to help ourselves to food and drinks that all the artists are welcome too as we were guests of an artist. I don’t understand what you think we did wrong but we certainly behaved ourselves well and we didn’t disrespect any rules inside the club at all. Dunno where you may be getting that from
@@starfishprime7721 Reading this tells me you would have failed the vibe check ngl
@@hydra5758 exactly. they were the obnoxious party the club was obligated out of courtesy to put up with. cool story bro

Fantastic work!!! This is like an award winning, long form New Yorker article in illustrated video format. Content Creators like you are making this era a Golden Age of knowledge transfer!
This!
As a Berliner whose been in Berghain a few times I can say that the way Sofie described the experience of standing in line is spot on, but I have a couple of additions/comments: It’s hilarious and completely tru that having a backpack significantly increases ur chances of getting in, the part about the vibe fits too, more than the clothes u wear, Berghain doesn’t have a Dresscode I would say, it’s all vibes, but black docmartens boots are better than white Jordan’s, then again I’m a white, blonde finance bro who doesn’t drink or take drugs so my vibe is not really the vibe😂😂😂. Regardingthe bouncers, yes you pretty much always have Sven there and up to around 5 others, with sometimes some walking around. These 6 bouncers are constantly sifting through the crowd, meaning u need to get ur act straight as soon as ur like 30-50m away from the entrance, they also talk to eachother, funny enough in code, they talk in numbers, like cops giving codes to certain types of behaviors. You should not have your phone out in those last 50m. Also if u don’t have guestlist, don’t get into the guestlist line. When it comes to arriving there there are 3 things I can say: Never really go there expecting to get in, plan another club or maybe 2 to go to if it doesn’t work out, go there after you’ve been to KitKat on a Saturday, meaning u line up at Berghain at around 5/6am on Sunday, by that point the line is tiny. If it isn’t, skip it to the last like 50m. As Hoog mentioned, the line is filled with internationals, who’ve prolly been standing there for hours, they won’t make a fuss and ruin their chance to get in and it’s not worth standing in line for more than 15 min. If someone does make a fuss, ignore him, it will most likely hurt him more than you. Last thing I would say, when you dress for Berghain, don’t be flashy in any sense. Be casual, but Berliny u Kno. As for the club, the location is awesome, it’s huge, spacious, and the music is quite good at times, but more than once or twice, or thrice is not a vibe. The thing with it being open the whole weekend is that on one hand ye u can party all weekend, but on the other hand everyone is fucked up, the vibe is grimy and druggy, the air is stuffy and reeks of piss (mainly because on the ground floor right next to the entrance and main stairwell there are booths where you can piss on people willing to be pissed on), the floors are sticky, the people aren’t really friendly, it’s dark as hell, but in a meh way, and doesn’t really feel all to welcoming. Then again I’m biased because I like clean clubs, good atmosphere, and so on. If you like sex clubs, or techno clubs with variety i recommend the KitKat club, my personal favorite and the one I frequent regularly. On Saturdays it has 7 floors, with a variety of techno and other arts, a sauna, good beds and such for sex, very inventive costumes (usually worn by women) and just a very friendly and welcoming vibe, and a clear Dresscode so you don’t have to worry about this whole vibe bs (although vibes and being not too fucked up before you enter are important). Generally I would say (if it’s not a big event) get in line at around 22:45/2300, then you have to wait barely 20min and they are more lenient on Dresscode.
That's a good summary, danke!
@@vommir. 👌👌
Holdup, there are golden shower booths? I’m from NL and always kinda wanted to atleast try to get into Berghain but I honestly think this made me rethink that tbh. Like say your dancing and some piss drenched mf touches you, hell the fuck no. I always thought I atleast somewhat fitted the vibe enough that I had a chance but nvm thanks for saving me from this huge letdown lmao.
@@shiftless215 yeah it's known for no rules and all kind of kinks
@@vommir. I mean kinks are fine, I don’t judge we all have some, but I’d say things like golden showers are best kept in spaces where there aren’t a ton of people bumping into each other hahaha. Like it’d ruin my night if some piss drenched guy gets in my aura and now I’m drenched in piss too, I’d just go back to the hotel, clean up and go to a more normal club lmao.
babe wake up, hoog has a new video
The Club: below average
the marketing: world class
Excellent as always, and the merch is brilliant. Will be grabbing one for sure.
Thought to myself "oh boy, here's another clueless Berghain video" but was pleasantly surprised. Nice job adding the history of Berlin and talking about how a person's vibe is what gets them in, not following the unwritten "rules". Also, the model is quite accurate so great job on that too!
i was watching this very seriously till i heard geopold voice acting 😭😭
I played there several times. Always an unbelievable experience. The people are so hyped up and you get 4h to tell your story which is a rarity.
I love the story of people at Netherland's Beyond Festival where they made pop-up Berghain, just so people can stand in the line and then get rejected.
Went to berghain once. One of the most entertaining and surreal atmospheres I’ve experienced. Met and talked with lots of strangers (locals and travelers), music was great, and each dance floor had its own vibe. In all, there was an energy to that place as mostly everyone was there to enjoy themselves in their own way ☺️
The quality and the production level of this video are next level. I'm so glad I found this gem of a channel!
gotta say your ad transitions are some of the best i have seen in this site.
yeah damn that one was smooth
Your videos are so interesting. Love the background on the subject as well. Thanks for putting in the effort!
There are some other clubs in Berlin where a lot of wild wild things happen. Truly people being "free" together and exploring each other out in the open. Such a wild city.

nice production man. i really enjoyed the mood, style, grading and pace of your video.
The 1st and only time I've been here with some friends most of us had no idea it was that hard to get in. I still don't know how we managed to enter and others not. But we all remember this place has one of the best club we've been, it's special and I hope they'll keep it that way as long as possible.
The video was fantastic! Not only the music selection, but also the animations and the information on point, thank you!
Well this was a lot more boring than I anticipated it would be
i dont know who you are or what your usual content is like, but this just got posted in the berlin reddit and as a former berghain enjoyer, this made me laugh so i will subscribe :) good video.

Call the girls i speak to berghain the way they reject me!😎
You've got to expand your vision beyond girls my guy become monkey
I love that the price of the little industrial building in Berlin is so fair
I’ve had the best nights of my life in laboratory, Berghain, Panorama and the garden. It’s a banging place.
However it’s not the only brilliant club in Berlin. There’s many many other venues where you can have similar experiences. Berghain is special though.
I’m a British Berliner and this video was so well researched it was uncanny. That graphic of Sven is a famous piece of street art in Westberlin that was my phone background for a year.
Also I’ve seen Sven walking around with his mum in Prenzlauer Berg before 😂 😁

I used to went there frequently so I had the privilege to skip the queue and could get in immediately, but this was 10 to 20 years ago. I had a great period of time between the age of 20 and 30, now my life has a different content and I don't do clubbing anymore in my first 40's.
Sounds like me haha...I used to fly in from London every month. I always got in. Like you, I'm now in my 40s and don't go clubbing anymore, different priorities now. Still in love with the music though.
@@hamelindabell1222 did you partake in the filthy activities that go down in there?
It always brings me joy when something is hard to get (in) and I don't care one bit about it and the exclusiveness of it

Awesome video, amazing production quality 👏 Glad I got it recommended 😀
Geopold's cameo caught me off-guard haha. Another wonderful high-quality video, as always!

Finally, Hoog merch! Grabbing myself a kit 🤤
Incredible ad transition and really funny too.
Oh ive been here.
Was invited by a friend named Gladys to go clubbing, not really into it but she insisted.
His friend says I'd be in for a "baptism by fire"... Didn't know the history of this club nor know what it is about, but i saw a lot of gay people, and i was like "oh... I think Im gonna get puked on tonight"
Got in at around 11PM, line was unexpectedly short even though it was a saturday, like waay shorter than what the video showed.
I dont think the people there were even waiting to get in, more like hanging out outside.
We kinda waited outside but Gladys was just waiting for another gay friend to arrive.
Got in, music was boring.
Went to the basement, i hear wheezing for some reason.
They're having fun while i was just there at the basement sitting on a stool looking very bored.
Went to the bathroom, at least two cubicles were closed, they're having a fuck party inside.
Went back, Gladys took me upstairs with his friends,
New people asked if i wanna fuck in bad English.
Said I'd rather go home and sleep.
They laughed at me.
The repititive music killed whatever anticipation i had, it was not even good.
Idk why the video Said theres different music venue in each floor, it isnt, same DJ controlling all the speakers on the main floor.
Song that ruined it for me was a heavy base song with a little boy singing "1, 2, 3.. 10, 9,8... Kiss me in the night" in German.
Might be mishearing it since my german is worse than a kindergarten, but that phrase kept on repeat all night, the only thing that changed was the accompaniment tempo or instrument playing, but the base is ever present.
Gladys had fun, i did not.
Idk what's so great about that place
"little boy singing"
could you elaborate that?
@@kittikorn6674 yes, either a syth or some vocaloid stuff.. sounds like a little boy, high pitched but definitely does not sound like a girl at all... if i have to guess, its a gay dude speaking sexily then they increased the voice pitch digitally. couldve been the DJ
@@superkamehameha1744 Do you mean "1 2 Polizei" ?
That's an absolute classic.
A gay techno club probably isn't the best place if you're neither gay nor like techno.
Gladys sounds fun.
Hilarious
this was a fantastic video! as a big fan of berghain, you capture the essance perfectly
Amazing video! Was lucky to live in berlin for 3 years and been there around 10 times
This sounds as the most pretensious and uninteresting place I've ever heard about.
Pretentious* but yea totally agree
Funny thing is, i was inside Bh when they rejected Elon Musk ( happened last year around easter).
Money doesn't get you everything.
Yeah, he is not very liked here. But many also worship him. He politically and socially divided the municipality where his Giga-Factory is build.
rightful so
@@secco1908 There are not many Musk worshippers left in Germany since he turned into a right-wing conspiracy theorist. That shit doesnt fly here.
@@u.p.1038 Germany is a cucked country. Vassals of the US. No point in being proud of your submission.
@@u.p.1038 Unfortunately that shit very much flies here these days. My theory is that he's just less popular here because being right-wing in Germany is more associated with anti-Americanism than it is in other European countries.
That was fun! I havent been in years, but been ca 100 times in my active years of raving. I enjoyed this video, the historic context (living on Stalinallee), level and insightful commentary and great renderings. Bought the model for my flat, goes next to some old BH metal wardrobe thingy.
S tier ad transition.. One of the best almost comical thank-you..
The world before the collapse of the Soviet Project is fascinating. The buildings are relics of Soviet ghosts in the wake of WWII.
It´s actually a classic marketing strategy, nothing new. Once you're inside it's just another underground club with a labyrinth of passages and dark rooms. And a great sound system indeed.
The Tunnel Club, or whatever it was called, in New York in the '80's was kind of like that.
well just an underground club is an understatemet. Yes it is true what you say that it is a "club", it is just that the whole architecture, all details, the sound system like you said, the strictly selected public makes it unique, like a perfectly designed piece of art.
the video quality , the attention to detail is unhinged here. instant sub.
bro youre really good at stroytelling. its like an informative movie with the visuals. 👏🙌
Is Neo also ran by the same youtube company? I initially thought that it was just fern and hoog that is the same youtube channel which I love.
No, neo is just a friend 🤗
I tried and got in TWICE... really, I must say it was BORING AF... and about the whole quantum physics to get in is actually quite simple, whether you belong to the scene or not, they can tell. We (Im a metalhead) ppl that belong to counter culture urban tribes and the such, well, you know we spot the normies from planetary distance, imagine the Bouncers doing that 12 hrs a day for 1/3 of the month... so yeah, the more alternative you look the higher the chances, also ppl looking completely comfy and like they really dont give a fuck how they are dressing but are dressing comfy clothes as to like dance for a thousand hours also get in fairly easy... if you are a normie tourist looking like one, well you wont get in, or you have to be REALLY lucky. Also women thinking they are going to a nice high end club dressing like one are the fastest to get kicked because they clearly have no idea where they are getting into xD
Elite Storytelling! I love the non-linear technique used to introduce characters and storylines! ❤
Amazing graphics in every video. Also really nice topics.
Keep it up, I love it.
When you been there many times, this is like a comedy. lol
I don't know why but I've always wanted to visit Berghain. It will never happen most likely because I'm an office worker in my mid 30's but I can dream.
I know two guys who went recently, one is 48 and the other 60. It's not like other clubs where the average age is 22.
i've never been to berghain, but I do love techno music with all of my heart. Berghain, even as someone who has never been, is still incredibly valuable and special to me-because of its reputation, it sets the bar for mutual respect and a deep care for the culture of techno in europe. i hope one day to go.
Interesting. So much effort in the design 😮 . So much effort to create an atmosphere of exclusivity, yet inclusivity, safety, even care about the visitor's presence.
This place sounds like hell on earth
If Sven saw how smooth that ad transition was he'd give you a lifetime pass.
Some of the lines in this script are the biggest fever dream I've head in my entire life, 10/10 would recommend
Your graphic effects and the visualization is incredible.
Hearing Geopold voice that brit made me burst out laughing… didnt expect that at all
East and West Berlin were not divided by ideology. Soviet Communists took over east Germany and imposed their vision on the people.
Very creative ad placement, I bought the product without having any need for it!
Lovely video and beautiful renders, as usual.
And gosh I'd love to know what the song at the start of the video and after the sponsored segment is.
8:07 brilliant.
The presentation quality of this video is insaaaane!!! 🔥🔥🔥
This is so well produced, incredible
12:35 - If it was just another "exclusive" nightclub it would be boring, but as you explained it had a fair bit more thought put into the design than I'd expect of such a place, which makes it a lot more interesting
Hitman reference
when?
Great video. So good in fact it makes me want to stay miles away. I'm so glad I grew out of the need for such places.
Possibly the greatest ad break in the world. Incredible use of mild humour and flawless integration 🎉
I've been there, though I preferred the line on the left... to Lab.oratory 😅😅 When you enter Lab, you see a changing area and reception, you get a large translucent plastic bag to put your personal items into, including clothes so you can change into your gear. The vibe is different from Berghain, much more catacomb-like, with one main looping pathway and offshoots to dark rooms and areas. There are lube dispensers on the walls, etc. Don't recommend going during any major holiday or festival - the crowding gets intense.
I love both, but I'm a creature of comfort and the Lab lacks on comfort for the kind of activities that happen there. So it's fun for bit but I quickly end up back upstairs to dance.
To really play while clybbing, I prefer the KitKat that I find more comfortable and a bit brighter lit.
Anyway, both are some of the greatest clubbing experiences on Earth and the very essence of Berlin for me.
are only gay people allowed into lab or you can also go as straight?
@@MrWick-el4wk Lab has bouncers too, so while you could pass, be ready to be confronted with a lot of gay sex and sometimes touchy invitations. If you try to ruin the vibe you will be ejected.
@@KyrilPG KitKat's layout is super disorientating for me, though the chill area near the pool is indeed much more comfortable. KitKat's organization, especially for admittance is much worse tho too, the reception/coat check area is way more hectic.
@@MrWick-el4wk No, it's not written on your face, but let's just say the kind of activity you'll find there won't be your cup of tea. Though I have some very open minded straight friends who enjoyed the place.
They just don't participate in "the activities".
But if you're really open minded and confident enough, there's no issue, just don't stare or behave like you're at the zoo.
