No asians - racist real estate ad
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ก.ค. 2019
- Classic clip from Australian news show, where the reporter confronts a man selling his home. But the ad ends with the words "NO ASIANS".
Re-broadcasted as part of Denis Norden's Laughter File. Entire episode here: • Video (uploaded by KillianM2) - บันเทิง
Probably watched this at least a dozen times. Always makes me feel good.
Glad to be a small part of making life a little bit more fun.
Same here, it's really heartwarming and hilarious. Best clip on TH-cam.
I'm racist too!
The asian agent watching this: "I can never catch a break."
Loooool
Brilliant.
Is he's an asian agent, is ge lazy or hardworking?
there's a skit right there! like ali G's 'veteran veterinarian.' lol.
@@boooster101 he is both until observed
Can you imagine what he was thinking? “Why the hell is this guy from tv caring about this”
"this guy must be a secret agent"
What I am doing against the law?
😂😂😂
Probably thinking, wow, slow news day.
@Lee It's not. This was a real incident, the show is called "Laughter File", which is a spin-off of the popular British show "It'll Be Alright on The Night" hosted by Denis Norden. "Laughter File" included real television mistakes and other various "oddities", this video being one of them. The video in question was a real journalistic attempt at exposing a racist on television, but after the misunderstanding, Denis Norden and his crew picked it up and put it in the show.
That guy went from an horrible man to a likable person in 2 seconds.
Fight the real enemy 😂
From based to a normal person
Why would he be horrible for disliking Asians? You seem to be one of those people who live in a sugary fantasy world where everyone loves everyone else, i.e. a phoney world.
@@svyatozar7692
Went from racist to non-racist. How come I, as a white man, have never had the urge to call racism "based"? Maybe it's because I was never mistreated by a black or asian person. Who knows...
He didn't go from anything to anything...other people imposed on him theirignorant fast-food judgements about a person they knew nothing about except what the media was telling them to think. All this stuff shows us is how utterly gullible and easily and instantly cajoled and drummed up we are about things we in fact know nothing whatsoever about. This is how easy it is to manipulate society via internet memes/soundbites and rhetoric.
To this day, he's right. Agents are a bunch of crooks
You mean lawyers are!

@@elliottbetancourt6914 wat
You'd be surprised, actually. There was this guy in highschool, about one grade older than me. He never really talked about his racist beliefs. Started talking to this guy about Ace Combat, then talked about planes and history, then politics. This was during Obama's presidency, and he revealed he couldn't stand the (then) current president. I asked why, and it was only then that he (described himself as)* "radically racist." Very respectful throughout the whole discussion, although an important note is that he saw white people as being a model for the other races, rather than wanted them wiped out or anything. He was an interesting character, mostly just got that attitude from his family (I later found out his beliefs were far more mild than his mother's, his father I think was in prison so I never got to meet him). Basically his beliefs were very colonial, as opposed to the more eugenic type of racism seen in Nazis. Both are very evil, obviously, but he struck me as confused more than anything.
Unfortunately, I was unable to really understand why he maintained the beliefs he did. Although one thing I did learn is that "racist" is not a personality, it's a belief. Much like how "gay pride" or "anti-racist" is a belief, not a personality. There are certain cultures that flow through it, but a great deal of variety. Can't say I have any respect for the belief, but any person that comes from a racist family that can tone it down at all or otherwise is actively searching for the truth does, even if they haven't discovered the problems with their beliefs yet.
*edited for clarification
@@101jir Yeah, thinking about it, I remember a black guy in school who was friendly with all races, but then one day, my mixed raced (black and white) friend said he was politely told by the guy that he "would" hang around with him, but he wasn't "full colour" lol.
Yes, so polite.
And you just said
Can we all take a moment to thank the uploader for not ruining the video with the title? He has preserved the experience of watching it for the first time for everyone
Hear hear!
And it was easy to find without giving the game away, when I send it to friends
The perspective of the house seller is hilarious. A tv reporter come to grill him because he's selling a house without an agent.
for sure. 110% true man
🤣🤣🤣
thats the first thing i thought lol....... both sides arguing a totally different point come to undertstand this hahahah
Ikr LMFAO
He also said that's illegal 😭
poor guy, everyone's thinking he's a shocking racist to begin with.
For anyone who still is a dumbass,He said AGENTS not ASIANS
Well yeah, at first. That's usually how developing information works
I was actually thinking it's his business who he sells to, not shocking at all.
This guy would have already have been fired and been arrested for a hate crime by today’s marxists.
bc your racist
I love how a nice pleasant conversation resolves a simple misunderstanding. Need a lot more of this in the world.
Wouldn't happen now. Reporters have an agenda dictated by whatever news agency they represent.
He wasn't milennial or younger.
Except there's usually no misunderstanding.
I just love this video. I've watched it countless times and recite it verbatim to my family. My wife thinks I'm mental but the kids have started to follow suit.

beautiful
I Identify as a real-estate Agent and I am deeply offended by this video.
Imagine if an Asian agent showed up and he runs them away yelling, “I said I don’t want you people coming by!!!!”
In 2021... that's likely AF to happen **shakes head** People today seem to lack critical thinking.
Lol.
“No no, I have no problem with Asians at all…”
Them: “Oh finally, someone cares about me-“
“It’s the agents I despise, I’d love to see them all wiped out”
Them: ☹️
Then ANTIFA would show up and burn the house down
@@thekingofthisworld2154 Does ANTIFA stand for ANTI F'ing Anything :)
This was a total surprise and absolutely brilliant.
Such a surprise....in such a good way!
Ironically the misspelling got his advert more views than it otherwise would have.
Wow imagine being in such a safe area that you could afford to be racist to Asians.. Like there were no better more deserving targets for your racism... I grew up in Louisiana... And ummmm Asians were the least of my worries... Lol
@@fresatx Sorry but I don't understand your point at all.
@@missrachael1709 At least in America they are.. I dont know if they like THUG LIFE 4eva! In other countries..but I kinda doubt it.

Had a similar experience having a conversation about pot plants with an American. Turns out the word "pot plant" means something different in the US than it does in New Zealand. We went for a full couple of minutes before we both realized. Conversation went something like this:
US friend: So, do many people have pot plants in New Zealand?
Me: Yeah prettt common, I usually had a few about the house in different rooms.
US Friend: Really!? It's not a problem?
Me: Nah. As long as you keep them watered they're usually good.
US Friend: You're just not the kind of person I pictured having pot plants in the house.
Me: Nah, literally almost everyone has them in New Zealand.
Me to other NZ friend: You ever have any pot plants back in New Zealand?
NZ Friend: Pot plants? I didn't. Mum always had them though.
US Friend: You're mom?
NZ Friend: Yeah old people love them. Their houses are full of them.
US Friend: That's crazy.
Me: Why is it crazy? They're just pot plants.
US Friend: It's not legal there though, is it?
Me and NZ Friend: What???
US Friend: I mean, what happens if the police find out you're growing plants in your house?
Me and NZ Friend have the sudden realization about what he's talking about.
Me: Oh. You mean marijuana.
US friend: Yeah?
Me: I thought you meant pot plants like a house plant in a pot.
US Friend: Ohhhh. You mean like a potted plant.
Like it! It's that lovely situation where an emotive issue sits in the middle- 'agents', 'pot plants'.
Here in the UK the Pot Noodle brand is almost a cultural institution. Instant noodles in a plastic pot, simple. I recently saw an american youtuber react to it as if it was a chinese takeaway with weed in it.
What 😂😂😂
Bro, do you think we are slow? You fabricated this story hardcore. You are literally spelling words the American way.
Us real Kiwis don't use 'z' in realise. Don't run up in here with fabricated stories - you attention seeking freak. 😂😂
Also in NZ Marijuana is referred to by those "in the business" as "plant".
My Mum kept plants in the house all her life. Once my parents had a Marijuana plant growing in their garden but that was because of the rubbish man leaving behind his smoked joint and it germinated.😄😆😅🤣
@@vermis8344 Lol. He thought it was pot in noodles when it was just noodles in a pot.
lol this guy probably couldn't believe he was getting grilled over why he didn't want any agents to contact him.
He honestly looked he was used to dealing with the press every day.
Imagine what he was thinking “man, they must’ve passed a law that protects those damn agents and I wasn’t aware of it… am I going to jail?…”
honestly, he seems used to it.
I wonder if people have thought he hated asians all his life, but really he hates agents.
and hes thinking 'why am I the only one who fuckin hates agents"
@Alpha Omega yeah but that’s not his fault though, he hated agents since when he was a little kid and they were all white back then. Can’t change his feelings just because they are different race now. That would make him a racist.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Honestly the funniest part of this for me is picturing him dictating his ad over the phone to the newspaper, the clerk hearing "no Asians" and just happily putting it in.
Yeah, someone at the newspaper will definitely get in trouble for this one.
Racism was really common at that time I think. People don’t find it wrong to be racist
@@Emmalittlepengelly1690 Racists like you are bad people.
@@waferschocolate7013 I mean it is his house. I'm Asian and I wouldn't be particularly offended. His choice what he wants to do with his own property. Most of us Asians aren't soft like Westerners.
Well I. Japan there are plenty of bars that has no foreigners signs and many apartments are not for rent to non japanese.
The only time a saw a real "no Asians" sign was in Italy at an historical cafe and ice cream shop which was for sale but the owner wanted a local guy to buy the place and keep it running while he must have gotten 100 calls from Asians that wanted to buy the location for something else it was a very sought after spot for business. However the owner would only sell to someone local that would keep the business as it was when he run it and didn't trust a Chinese guy to not change into some other business.
(The business was open since 1925 and went trough several generations of the same family but the last guy didn't have any kids).
"Why don't you want Asians?"
"Simple reason, they're too lazy" - said no one, except my Asian parents, ever. 😅
I'm also Asian and can confirm this.
It's not difficult to simply work or study...unless you're a "pinto."
i was thinking asians must be opposite in austrailia
The reason he doesn’t want to show the house to Asians is because they are extremely frugal, and will waste your time, trying to get an unrealistically good deal. Asians never pay anywhere close to market price. As a contractor, I can confirm this
I said the real reason, and then my comment was hidden on here. That should tell you everything you need to know
Imagine what the interaction would go like if the agent was Asian.
This is the real definition of :
"They had us in the first half, not gonna lie."
Can you translate what they were saying?
@@LucyFerr000 How does one translate from English to English?
@@LucyFerr000 The seller did not want to involve an agent (guy, that tries to sell the house on behalf of the seller) into the sale of his house. The newspaper misunderstood "agents" and printed "asians" instead.
@@Vandal3211 I meant I cant understand with their thick accent. Also I am not a fluent English speaker. So there might be words I was not familiar of.
They had us for the first three quarters, man!
It's even funnier when you watch it again from his perspective. Imagine him thinking about how serious this reporter is about him not wanting agents, even telling him he's breaking a law in a firm tone. Like, no serious reporter would ever even cover that, the guy must've been flabbergasted.
Best part is how when the reporter says "Asians" the seller still hears it as "agents" and vice versa XD
@@101jir You're so right!
Right lol. He's probably thinking "Why does this guy care so much about agents??'
@@lemonmarie2161 And probably something like "keep your nose to yourself, if I don't want an agent that's my business."
Especially when some of the more racist rural types seem to be drunk or out of it in some capacity, so this guy seems like he has an attitude he's actually just confused as hell lol
One of the most beautiful television news rollercoaster rides of all time. So many watching it for the first time would share the affronted approach of the TV reporter. The realisation from the reporter about what the seller actually means, and how the seller himself shows such genuine concern at being misunderstood, just triggers smiles from me every single time I see this. One minor point - while there is a Highgate in Adelaide, this one is actually in Western Australia.
If only every internet argument could end like this.
I love how he starts with “they’re all crooks” and you’re like “oh oh” but then it all makes sense in the end.
oh so its ok to descriminate against agents then........
@@jameskid81 Yes it’s ok to discriminate against people doing their job. It’s not like he’s harassing them or anything; he’s just saying he won’t use them.
@@jameskid81 There's not really anything inherently wrong with discriminating against people for their choices, as opposed to things they have no control over such as ethnicity, age, sexuality etc. But this isn't really even a case of that - just a guy expressing how he wants to sell his house.
@@robclarkson oh ok so its ok to discriminate against muslims then? coz they have a choice

At the height of the 90s heroin epidemic in Melbourne Australia, street dealers would often approach people thinking they were trying to score drugs. They would walk up and say to you " you chasing mate?" Which meant are you looking to score heroin. I was very naïve at the time and thought they were asking if I was a guy called Jason....as in "are you Jason mate?" This happened 3 times in 5 minutes one night. I was thinking, gee I must fit the description of a dude named Jason that everyone in Victoria street is trying to find.

As we are talking now in 2023, indians come in Canada, work and buy house and state "Only Punjabi" when they post a room or basement for rent.
I always said that "Agians" are the most racist people on the planet lol
The intro says this is in Highgate, a suburb of Adelaide, but both the accents of the news reporter and the home vendor are clearly not a typical South Australian accent.... Something was off about this...
So I did some digging, and it turns out there is no Smith Street in Highgate, Adelaide. I reckon the suburb is actually in Perth. Quick search on google maps reveals a different looking house at 69 Smith St, (google maps shows white façade), but early 2000s rental photos show exposed brick at the rear of the house, similar to the ones in this video. Perhaps renovations over the years? The house location itself is walking distance from the city (about half an hour to St Georges Terrace), and seems close enough to schools and shops (along Beaufort St) as per the ad., and the distinct yellow car license plate is typical of a Western Australia late 1970s-1996 plate. Apparently there's been a house at that location since 1920s, so looks like the guy put it up for sale late 70s, early 80s, probably when they after built Stirling Towers public housing next door 😅
Others here have already stated it is Perth.
His accent is so heavy, even he couldn't understand himself.
When he burps it sounds like a fart;
When he coughs everyone thinks he might be sick, 'cause it comes out as a sneeze;

What are the Asian agents supposed to think if this?
“agents of course being one of the minorities that anyone can slag off” had me rolling 😂
Thanks for letting us all know! Really appreciate ur insightful and knowledgeable contribution.
You know your comment is just as shallow as theirs is, you have no right to judge.
@@lachlancrimmings2235 I agree

He just kept thinking, why is this guy so invested in real estate agents?!
Imagine the frustration of the guy trying to sell his house without using an agent, and then some asshole from the TV comes along and gives you a hard time for not wanting to use agents.....
@@davincimemes3631 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I think he thought he was a real estate agent LmfAo 🤣
If it happened today he'd be cancelled on social media, lose his job and have his reputation destroyed before anyone worked it was an error in the advertisement.
yep.if if he said it was a typo the media wouldn't of backtracked that it was a typo
I’m Asian but the word “ Agent “ and “ Asian “ sounds very similar. I still sing that one song as 🎶Secret Asian Man 🎶🤣
Superjesus or Johnny Rivers?
The difference in Australian is subtle , but there.
...My classmates used to rag me along when we played that during band class lol.
"Agents are the minority that anybody can slag off" Lmao that was hilarious. Who is that cool oldie!
Dennis Norden, British comic and presenter. He was around for many decades.
Lmao he said "they're just a mob of crooks" 😂😂

@@rickytalbot84 Used to love is presentation of “It’ll be Alright on the Night” 😂
Dennis Norden, but he isnt usually that funny
I bet some Asian agents got extra offended after the explaination
Don't you mean Asian asians?
@@reshpect I think he meant agent's agent.
@Rahul I didn't see ANY reference to drink in the whole thing...
@PenileAugmentation we, the Agency of Asians, would like a word with this so called 'The Asian Agency'. We're sending our Asian agent.
In those days you could submit an advert to the newspaper over the phone - so it was probably the work experience girl who transcribed it wrong and didn't think anything of it!
"That was a typo! It was supposed to say "No Asian Agents" 😂
That dude was so standoffish at first cuz he thought the reporter was an agent😂
Good point 🤣😂🤣
with a camera crew?
You mean an aijens
My wife's a Chinese realtor. Can't wait to show her this!
This makes her a double agent?
I can see her reaction going from outrage to relief to outrage once again :)
Is she number one on the west side?
So how did it go down? 😁
What is "a Chinese realtor"?
As a non-native, I had trouble understanding the man. It was so hard for me.
I put generated auto subtitles and even that it did not understand what he meant most of the time 😂 no wonder he was misunderstood by everyone 😂
Don't worry asa native English speaker I have trouble understanding him as well :)
As a matter of fact that you should know is that if you use the subtitle section in English it doesn't properly translate any English with a strong accent, as this man clearly has.
He was speaking Strayan, myte.
I don't know what his first response to the reporter is. Subtitles has him calling the agents "turtles" but im not sure if that's accurate 😂
Tbh I can't blame him, I'm sick of all the Agents in this neighbourhood.
Not quite the same but this reminds me of a text conversation I had with a slightly dyslexic buddy who thought I wrote the word COCAINE instead of COLOGNE when I asked him his opinion on how much to use and what was a good price for some quality stuff. We went back and forth for about 10 texts each. Among the highlights were me telling him I had been using since I was 10 because the ladies loved it and him offering to help me "get clean".
I cant even begin describe how hilarious it was.
I hear it smells good too.
Yeah auto-correct makes for quite the backseat driver of many a convo!
that's hilarious. your friend's a good person too, offering to help you get clean (thinking of course you were using cocaine).
Gotta watch out for that man perfume, guys! 🤣
man how'd it end? like how did he find out u were talking abt cologne
As an Asian myself, I do admit when it comes to real estate, we all become agents.
When i was ill i sought homeopathic treatment and said i didnt want any doctors. Everyone thought i was being racist.
@@fredfinks : I don't get it. Is "doctor" a race?
@@Milesco yes, asian (its a joke, like orbit said 'we all become real estate agents)
*Chinese Wine Moms in California have entered the chat*
Or engineers
All he had to do was make a phone call before launching his crusade
If this happened today the reporter would bark at them for 2 minutes and refuse to let them speak. Then the actual explanation would have came out 2 weeks later on Twitter when nobody cared about it
This is possibly one of the most wholesome bait-and-switch clips in TV history
Australian newspaper still happy to print the ad thinking he meant no Asians.
It is just a low level grunt who takes those ad requests by phone. The main editor is not proofing these tiny ads.
he probably heard "Asians" the guy's accent is nutty
@Tristo Smitty Edgy
The '80's were a different time. The movie, Single White Female came out in the '90's.
Ah, back when we still and freedom of speech and thought
$50k for a penthouse. Those were the days.
They guy getting interviewed sees the paper advertisement and says " yeah yeah them too..........."
That's really cute. Rather than condemning the man, the reporter gets to the bottom of the story.
Righ That would never happen today. They'd make him apologize, get him fired from his job and burn down his house for that mistake. Even though it's not his fault
@@HM-eg9hv Its not exactly a typo. It was miscommunication through heavy dialect. He called in, and wanted to put an ad to sell the house. The other person on the phone call heard "no asians" instead of "no agents. So he wrote "no asians" in the ad. The reporter read "no asians" in the ad and came over to question him about it.
Both of them couldnt understand the other, the landlord thought the reporter said "agents", where as the reporter thought the landlord said "asians"
That's a good reporter. Nowadays reporters just make up the story hence the term "fake news".
@ConfusedOilPainter this is australia not america, not everything is fake
@@pretzel2558Just flatly wrong. Believe it or not journalists aren’t race fascy goblins.
My mother had this issue with a guy from NZ (before my time but had this story told to me). He was my father's employer when he went there to work; and had come over to Europe for a visit. He was tired after the long trip and asked for a "chair". My mother was kind enough to comply and brought him the chair he had requested. He was pretty confused and asked once more for a "chair". It apparently took her a while to figure out that what he really wanted was a shower...
LMAO🤣
Hows that? Shower ~ chair ...couldn't understand brother.
@@IILMNBD like shewr probably.
@@IILMNBD Yeah what RR above said. He asked if he could "please have a shewr". My mother was very confused, as there were places to sit, but still brought him that "chair".
@@IILMNBD - well if you’d have had any exposure to Kiwis you’d understand. Just as Americans can’t understand most other English speaking countries even though they share a common language.
This reminds me of the time I called a teacher a bitch and she heard me and asked what I had said so I said “I have an itch” 😂😂 it worked
i'm telling on you!
Funny how in the UK: Asians are Indians, Pakistanis
In the US: Chinese, Japanese, Korean
Happened to me in the UK. I lived with a family once during my A-Levels in Cambridge. The family's son was named John. A year later I called the family to see how they were doing and a male voice answers. And I ask, is this John, and he says, at least to my ears, "no, John's dead". After offering my condolences I later understand that he was actually saying, "John's Dad"
That sounds like something that would happen a lot in New Zealand.
@@Croz89 For sure, but the range of accents in the UK came as a big surprise as well
😂

That's what bias does to people.
@@verner3600 What bias *does* to people. Happens all the time. The "Halo Effect".
@@fightinandirish alright, I've edited my reply.
@@verner3600 You didn't have to do that. My point was redundant anyway. I was half awake when I wrote it. 😄
not liking a certain race of people doesn’t make you evil, if you dislike them for good reasons, let’s say the majority of them are bad people, that’s understandable and not racism.
I can't believe people think this is real. There is even a video here on youtube that explains this is from a comedy show.
No mate - it was real. The reporter (whose name eludes me) was a current affairs reporter, not a comedian.
The thing is these days the poor guy would of been cancelled by social media and he wouldn't of been believed if he said it was a typo
"Would of" .... oh dear.
"No Asians!"
Asian Agents: ☹️
"No, not no Asians..."
