6:38 This aquarium (in Berlin) doesn't exist anymore. It cracked/exploded by mechanical/thermal stress. It was very sad and caused a lot of discussions as hundreds of tropical fishes ended on the street in winter!
A wheelchair doesn't mean you are able to sit anywhere. A swing needs you to balance, have muscles, etc. . For paralyzed people, people with mental disabilities, this is really nice.
The Elevator Aquarium no longer exists, the tank burst about 1.5 years ago, massive damage to the building due to saltwater, near all fish died. And the overhead powerline for trucks was ruled to be non viable after a decade or so of testing.
_"The ELISA project (german abbreviation for 'elektrifizierter, innovativer Schwerverkehr auf Autobahnen', eng.: electrified, innovative heavy traffic on motorways) has been involved in the planning, approval and construction of the first eHighway infrastructure in Germany since 2017. The eHighway is located on the 'A5' between Frankfurt am Main and Darmstadt between the Langen/Mörfelden and Weiterstadt junctions._ _The first section of the eHighway was completed at the end of 2018, and the test facility was commissioned in May 2019, initially covering five kilometers in both directions. The expansion of the route by a further seven kilometers in the southerly direction began in 2022. Ten overhead line trucks (O-trucks) are currently on the road every working day on the test route, which is now 17 kilometers long. The vehicles are overhead line hybrid trucks. The first purely battery-electric O-truck is expected to go into operation in September 2023._ _In January 2021, the newly founded Autobahn GmbH of the federal government took over the overall project management of the eHighway Hessen from 'Hessen Mobil'. Together with Siemens Mobility GmbH, e-netz Südhessen AG and the Technical University of Darmstadt, Autobahn GmbH is continuing the project until mid-2025. The field trial is funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection (BMWK) and is continuously evaluated from the perspective of different actors and interest groups under technological, traffic, ecological, economic and organizational aspects."_ (quoted from 'Autobahn GmbH') Regardless of how critical one might be of the costly and complex installation of overhead lines on motorways when a largely electrified rail network already exists, you are just tellying fictitious nonsense here. You sound like a secret influencer of the combustion engine lobby.
You both are really very interested in Germany and you are nice: Here's some background information: most of the films you both react to are often about differences between the USA and Germany. Or the largest economy and the third largest economy in the world. E.g.: in the USA it costs you an arm and a leg to call an emergency doctor, in Germany it only costs 10 euros. - I hope that your very nice manner attracts many more people :-)
2:58 I actually live in that city and I can confirm this picture is 100% authentic. Apart from the library there's also a Cafe on the ground floor where you can actually sit on the bridge while enjoying your drink. Apart from being allegedly (I didn't fact check it myself, so I'm cautious) the only Library Bridge in Europe, it does even more. Outside of the frame, to the right, there's a public square now. It was constructed together with the library and it replaces a car park that was the largest in the center of the town for decades. Now the car park has been moved under this new town square, enabling a public space with a market every Thursday and shops, restaurants and cafes, all connected to the other side of the river through the Library bridge, where there's a spa garden and spa house ("Bad" in German literally means "spa" and is an attribute that is awarded to cities that are traditionally associated with health spas), thus connecting this area with the center of the city as well. Although heavily disputed in the planning and building phase I think it contributes a lot to the city's character. Nice to see it pop up randomly in your video (which I'm thoroughly enjoying to watch).
You can easily make Spaghetti ice at home. Just buy some vanilla ice cream, some strawberry sauce and white chocolate. Scoop the ice crem in a kitchen tool to mash potatoes. It is a press with thin holes in it. Then you add the sauce and pour over grated white chocolate. Ice cream resembles the Spaghetti, the sauce the tomato sauce and the white chocolate the cheese. It's really simple to make, but tastes really good. Btw. the damned escalator in Uni Vaihingen is still broken. It's been years and years now. The aquarium around the elevator exploded and all the animals inside died. The entire quarter of the city was flooded. It was a disaster and happily nobody died, as far as I know...besides the fishes.
@10:12 the rack is on graveyards. we lock them there that we can water the flowers on the graves when we visit them and dont need to carry it every time
spagetti ice is great it gets a much bigger surface and that surface frezzes the whipped cream under it so you get ice ontop of half frozen whipped cream with tomato sauce and parmesan cheese made from strawberrys and coconut
Guy from germany here... The R2D2 is in our city on our university campus. Walked by it daily for many years. And that professor also made "Star Trek Lectures" where he talked about Science Fiction technology, mostly Star Trek but also a bit Star Wars. Had an frozen Han Solo Replica in our biggest lecture room (or maybe the original prop, i don't know). Greetings from Zweibrücken - Germany.
11:40 regarding the swing: if you ever had to lift someone out of or in a wheelchair, you will understand its way easier to just rolll the wheelchair in, fix it and who ever is in the wheelchair is still strapped and protected by the wheelchair mechanism but can swing. if the kid in the wheelchair is very young and light weight, ofc lifting it out is not the challenge, but maybe the kid cant balance or hold on itself on a usual swing.
Women-only parking is usually near the exit and is always illuminated very well. However on public parking spaces it is not legally enforceable. 5:00 The Cologne Cathedral took over 800 years to finish. It is the building that took the longest time to build (in the world I think).
Ofc it doesn't, but the video also doesn't say that you can find all these things all over Germany. It's like when a French video shows the Eiffel Tower, then you also do not automatically expect to find another one in Marseille or Lyon. 😜
Probably more Germans than any other nationals visited India! ❤ Indians and Germans have a mutual affection for each other! By the way: I went into the "Golden Temple" in Amritsar in 1979.
@@TheLoudBro I saw the Golden Temple before it was attacked and Indira was shot. I heard it has been restored as good as possible. I'm happy that the Sikh community is living in safety and security ever since! What India does not need at all is religious wars. As long as every Indian respects that, it is fun and a good experience to meet with any of the 1.4 billion Hindus, Muslims, Sikhs, Jainas Zoroastrians, Christians, Jews, Buddhists and adherents of tribal religions. May God grant us peace!
Because kids in wheelchairs can without aid by others just swing like every other child. There many disabled out and about in Germany and not hidden away. While not perfect there are efforts made to include everyone.
On escalators out of order.. This is a thing in Germany. Many escalators and lifts don't operate. They are broken for a very long time. Ine reason os a lasting labour force shortage. Another one might be lack of competition in this field. People are getting annoyed that things are out of order for such a long time and start to make fun of it. It started with a broken door at a university. The administration just put up an "Out of order" note with "Technician is informed". The latter went viral. Students created funny memes and placed it at the door. Hilarious. May be you find it on the internet.
2:16 The tampoon-book is a nice idea, but it will not work. Not every book has the reduced VAT of 7%. It depends on the main use case of the book - is the main use case reading: 7% if not: 19%.
The disabled swing: You enter it with the wheelchair and can swing like a child.
It's lovely.

Please don't see everything as "typical". There are many local specialties/oddities that are unique. I even didn't know half of it. 😂

If you're a book worm and love libraries please take a look a Stuttgart's new Library.
It is by now; World famous. ^^
An architectural bliss.

a leotard is what gymnasts or dancers wear. There is a female and a male version. A unitard is unisex leotard=same uniform for men and women.

i think this is more of the easter eggs of germany rather than a whole representation of germany
You must try Spaghetti ice cream. It´s great!
The wheelchair-swing is for children who are in a wheelchair, that they could have fun too.

A lot of Fun in Germany, better than India
wtf is this? im from germany and at least 90% of this is just unique things/tourist traps. thats not
representative of germany.
I dont know what's worse, the terrible original video or the overly fake reactions
