There is that joke about Germans obeying rules. A guy wanting to cross the Sahara with his car was missing. A rescue team finds him several days later, died of thirst, because for some reason there was a red traffic light in the middle of the desert and his German obedience to traffic rules prevented him from going any further.
1:45 - I recall an experiment back in the '90s to test just how obedient Germans would be to perceived authority. A group of researchers went to a pair of phone booths in a city and put up "Men Only" and "Women Only" signs on them. Then they watched to see if the German public would realize the absurdity of the distinction or if they would obey the signs. When a woman entered the "Women Only" booth, another woman with her child stood outside and waited. Her little girl asked, "Why don't we use the other booth since it's empty?" "We can't use that one, dear, it's for men only." Apparently only one person violated the gender rule: a French woman who looked at the signs and then entered the "Men Only" booth while muttering, "Only the Germans would think up such an idea."
Germany is not the only stigler for traffic rules. Finland is very much the same, people here WILL wait for traffic lights even with no cars around. However we've come up with a work around. In the early hours of the morning / night with very low traffic, some traffic lights are turned off. This way there's no traffic lights to obey and people feel more free to cross.
I wait for traffic lights with no other motorist around too. United Statesian. Also autistic and funny how we tend to adhere to rules that are presented to us, in general.
1:49 As an American who doesn’t drive and uses crosswalks a lot, I can confirm that we do in fact wait for the walk light to turn white for us to cross. Not all of us are as rule-disobeying as Drew. I’m glad Germans take the crosswalk rules seriously, we need more people to follow crosswalk rules.
As an American of German extraction, I'm all for everybody obeying the traffic rules at all appropriate times and places. But really, at three in the morning, when you're a pedestrian and you can see there's no cross-traffic for blocks, if not for miles, then it really doesn't make sense to wait for the light to change.
@@dead8514 Idk how yall even navigate that. Its kinda the same in big cities here like New York and La which is where he lives which is propably why he said he doesn't wait. But its nowhere near the level of indian traffic.
I’m living in Germany for a while now. People do jaywalk sometimes here it’s not THAT strict as I imagined. But after I went to Paris once, now I know… yeah
Fun fact for Americans: The total number of stripes (red & white) in the flag of Malaysia is 14, which is equal to the number of points the star has, resembling the amount of states in the country. It would be interesting to see the US try to do so.
The german 's obedience to traffic light is incredible... once we were in germany and there was this traffic light which was broken and didn't become green so after a while we (italians) fed up and crossed the street... when we looked back the germans were still waiting for it to become green😂
@@genovayork2468 Flag of Northern Ireland is St. Patrick's Saltire which is Red cross on a white background.

Me: *sees* 6:19 Also me remembering i am Serbian: *looks at Serbian and Russian flag* (In short when you look at Russian and Serbian flag, Russian flag is just up side down Serbian flag and boy just how many times did some people said Serbian flag is Russian flag)
Japan doesn't mind Palau having such a similar flag to theirs because they think of each other as brothers. Japan being the older and Palau being the younger, and that is why Palau made their flags so similar to Japan.
The reason germans wait for green, even when there is no car, is that its an infringment. If a police officer catches you crossing a red light as pedestrian you get a fine of up to 10 € and if you have a driving license you can even get penalty points (if you accumulated enough your driving license will be taken away). Same applies to bycicles and everything else that takes part in the overall traffic.

The family was originally developed from the popular retractable-gear Cessna 210 and produced by the Cessna Aircraft Company.

American sure has a history of getting triggered over our boats. From the Barbary Wars and American raid on the Islas Malvinas(Argentinian Falklands) to WW2 and Vietnam.
To be fair we kinda need our boats. We’re separated from most of the world by two oceans. It makes it really hard for anyone to attack us but it also makes it really hard to do basically anything else.
at 5:39 it says 'happiæst' instead of happiest. Now, it would make sense to just say happiest, but if you want to embrace æ, it's pronounced happiast. It would make more sense with hæppiest though...

'Trans' in this case means 'beyond', because Transjordan refers to the land 'beyond the river Jordan'.
We know dude….
It’s part of the meme…
Another case of the joke went over his head… syndrome
the funny part is is there a cis-Jordan that is part of Palestine (For how long we don´t know )
