the only reason americans have biger houses is because they have 9× the land of the uk
Yes my house is very bogfer.
We also are fat and need more room as you Brits would say!
Yes, I can attest... I do have a bogfer house than you.
Sam Roberts that is true. Plus it costs less to make the house in America if it was the same size as the average houses in Britain. But more if you made a British house the size of an average American house. As they are made out of different things.
Sam Roberts basically, British houses are safer in general
about the uk
1. we dont drink tea all the time
2. we dont all sound like the queen
3. there are lots of different accents
Yeah but we can agree that Pewdiepie is in the UK
Us PewDiePie not swedish
Alot of TH-camrs live in the Uk, I gotta start planning a trip there
we do drink tea all the time at least the older genration dose
Rah we have more regional accents than every other English speaking country combined. Travel like 15 miles from ur house and you'll find a new accent and dialect
I think you will find the USA’s colleges is far more expensive at more like $25,000 a year not $9,000
It just feels like that coz ur poor
@@JP-dj3ty bruh british citizens only have to pay 9000 pounds a year for uni
@@JP-dj3ty yeah the maximum a university can charge per year is £9250 with it being limited from going any higher. Idk where u heard the £30,000 a year from.
J I have no idea where you got that number from but it’s simply wrong.
Its the average
I’m an American, and also an introvert. I think I would be more accepted for that in the UK than in the US, where there’s too much social pressure
to be loud and popular. America views quiet people as odd, shy and having low self esteem when this isn’t true at all.
yeah i noticed i am one to with social anxiety and potentially philophobia but at least i have a higher chance with living in the uk than us
a little story i was at a metro centre first time alone and for 4 hours i was ok for first hour but started getting stressed i coundn't leave becuase it was a school trip a few years ago, got into trouble with security guards about 3or 4 times never kicked out for a while i avoided metro centres (shopping centres or malls) but at least when i eventually went to one again different and bigger i was able to work with the staff to have something in place so nothing happened although the one i was at (at the time i came) they had an incident with somebody who screamed really loud and then just collapsed they had a serious panic attack so yeah and i know that in america the outcome will be different
The uk is a terrible place
I am an American living in the UK. Come over, America is horrible.
I don't know what you're talking about. I'm an introvert UK citizen. My wife is a US citizen. I have experienced complete acceptance for who I am in the US. In fact I've found US folk are far better at bringing me out of my shell, which benefits my mental health. Maybe it's just who you hang around with.
Uk see it the same way
You could argue that Britain has less cars per capita because of far better public transport which is mostly state funded. You don't really need a car in Britain unless you live in a very small town or village.
fe good point
Pfffft Britain has terrible public transport, the main reason is because people are less dependant on cars because cities are more compact compared to cities in America which are made up of expansive suburbs.
I live in Britain. Public transport is expensive and extremely unreliable, well except maybe in London public transport is good, but outside of London public transport is terrible.
fe so true. been in both. used to think Britain was expensive for transport but in America it's similar price and totally unreliable. you can't really get far without your own car there in America.
America's public transport is atrocious when compared to Britain. 'Cities more compact', have you never heard of London? Manchester maybe? Birmingham? The three major cities of the UK are not compact and arguably are made up of more expansive suburbs. Greater London is the same size as the country of Luxembourg, so please tell me how those suburbs are 'compact'.
As an Englishman I could never imagine saying "I can't afford to go to the doctor"
but the odd thing is we have time wasters calling Ambulances out at £250 a time. But we have elderly people falling over and having seizures. Refusing to call an Ambulance out.
Britain is communism. have you ever heard of help from the government?
same i'm also an Englishman
I live in England and I can’t get braces not because of money because it’s like free but because I have to many baby teeth but you probs pay for it in tax
Or the government help you

No

Bruh they’re different
Why? I did too but its because he forgot northern Ireland, but do you have a a problem with the 'great' part?

You can get scotch whiskey, scotch tape and scotch eggs, but NEVER a scotch person. It's scottish person, anyone who refers to themselves as 'scotch' is so far removed from being scottish, that they should never refer to themselves as being remotely scottish.
I'm 1/2 Scottish 1/2 English
@Scottish Games I'm 3/4 Scottish 1/4 Northern Irish
A Scottish person doesn’t call themselves scotch, but Ulster Scots from Ireland that migrated to the US in the late 18th early 19th century coined the term scotch-Irish for themselves and descendants still use it. They aren’t claiming to be authentic Scotsmen, they are a culture of their own. That’s why they can call themselves that.

When you use dollars to talk about the uk
He has to use the same currency to make it comparable
BabsW then you use a neutral currency and you could say the average for each country in there currency then put a translation

Nick Gurse people say it because it’s true
Also free education until uni x
Funny how you barely spend 5 seconds on the NHS compared to American privatised healthcare. It's free over here.
Not for much longer if the Tories have their way :(
Tru Pype yep but I can see JC getting in
It's not free. You pay for it in taxes.
still better and cheaper than having to pay for private health insurance.
Healthcare is not an easy debate. The NHS means worse quality, longer wait times, less R&D, less innovation, but better access means that people don't die from curable illnesses. The American system means that they have the best surgeons, most innovative procedures and treatments, and the highest standards within their private healthcare system, but the poor have a terrible time and even die from preventable illness. It's a debate worth having - partisanship detracts often - the right values the quality, choice, effectiveness and freedom of privatisation, the left values a society where the wealthy pay a bit more so that those less fortunate can be looked after. It's not easy, as someone who has experienced both types of healthcare (the public system in the Netherlands and the private sector in New Zealand) I can say I much preferred private, however as I can afford insurance and medical bills this is obvious (who wouldn't prefer a far better product.) However, it troubles me that people have to sell their homes or even die because they can't pay to save their life, kids getting sick because they couldn't spare $50 to see the doctor. A system where children and necessary procedures (eg heart surgery rather than breast implants) are paid for publicly but run privately would be ideal - the government foots the bill for low income patients who receive the highest quality for the lowest price, basically utilising all the benefits of the free market whilst also making sure that your society is looked after. This beats both systems: avoids forcing people into insurance (obamacare), avoids low quality and inefficiency (NHS), and avoids unfairness (total free market)
I visited and stayed in the UK for a month and a half and one thing that really stood out to me was the people there really don’t care about your racial or ethnic background like a lot do in the USA. Americans put a lot of importance on race when it comes to relations with people. In the UK they could care less. My experience.
Fax. Americans so surprised to see no “ghettos”. My schools r all mixed, african,asian,etc
Most people get along well here unlike the states where there’s news on racial tensions every other month
I still think the media is to blame for a lot of racial tension in the US. And I don’t think the US is as racist as they make it out to be. But, there is a barrier between whites, browns, and blacks that you can feel, like an imaginary line. In the UK everyone seemed to be more in sync with each other. It also doesn’t help that Americans are very passive. People are in the UK are way more upfront.
That’s why it’s so relaxed out there when you see stuff that would actually offend an American. They don’t look at it as racist just art and products. God forbid your clothes has a monkey on it and a BLK kid is modeling it. Lol that it the end of your corporation lol
Here in the uk you’re usually judged on class system or what are you’re from we don’t care about race
Any other brits laughing about how he pronounces Britain
he's only missing out the 't' to try and naively warm up to us brits
I laughed when he said “the United Kingdom of Great Britain” that’s just not how it works
ik mate right "THE UNITED KINGDOM OF GREAT BRITAIN" like what
Yes
American says Britain sounds like they are saying Briton
5.6 weeks paid vacation! Fuck me, goodbye America!
Jam well at least you guys have massive houses and earn a lot more, and have cheaper cars....
Jarno Modderkolk and cheaper gas / insurance
Jam finally both nations trying to immigrate to tje other im so happy
At least they have real houses and not wood huts. (can contain irony)
"and have cheaper cars...."
How is that a pro ?
The cheap versions that many car companys produce for the US marcet are horrible (US Passat as an example).
Hardwarehelfer well mustangs and other fast muscle/saloon cars, are really cheap, and fuel is less then half the price... you pay like 40k for a brand new mustang with v8 (not 4 cilinder they sell here) and over here the v8 version is well above 100k and then fuel prices and insurance...
American's may have larger house's and all that. But do they have CHIP BUTTIES!?
Haroon Danby very valid point
Haroon Danby hahah they don't have a bigger house than me and its o ly like that cause they got those kardashians running around buying 3 houses each

@@epiphany55 What? 😂
@@epiphany55 explain how that would work
But they missed out that in the UK you only pay back your student debt once you are earning £20,000 a year, and even then it's partial payments based on your income, barely anything, over a gradual time. And once you reach a certain age that debt is completely cleared, if it hasn't been fully paid already.
+Ciara Thompson Sounds fair and reasonable...i wish we had something like that here in the U.S. we're a little more demanding when it comes to student loans
only one question,,
if you have student loan in uk and you want a home mortgage from banks..what will local banks do??
Income based repayment plans and loan forgiveness is available in the US too
Someone has to pay. Maybe not you, but someone. =^..^=
Ciara Thompson ecleast our education is free.. Unlike america
one voted for brexit and the other voted for Trump
GHrime in terms of political direction, they're kind of one and the same, the U.K. just hasn't had a real "brexit politician with those political views.
GHrime Their kinda the same.Both of us don't want Muslims and immigrants in our countries.Like father like son bro.
a lot of people voted for brexit not to stop immigrants but to theoretically give the NHS and other services more money
Jeremy Shiu there was the three brexiteers; Borris Johnson, Micheal Gove and Nigeal Farage
I LOVE YOU the brexit vote had very little to do with muslims. In my mind it was Mexicans and Poles that swayed the argument
Americans and English are basically brothers who've moved out of their childhood home, getting a home of their own, and constantly competing as to who can bake the best bread. This question has always intrigued me, but I'm American and I barely see the difference. We all have different problems but react to said problems the same way. Case in point: The comment section.
And the Brits still live with their daddy after all this time while the Americans moved out right away
I don’t get why Americans are always so patriotic, like not everyone in the U.K. hates America so stop attacking us.
@@justsomeunicornwithinterne6490 there is nothing wrong with loving your country
@@danteluciani2318 What do you even mean by that? Many Americans are descended from Britain (and other European countries) while Brits live in Britain. So? Do you expect everyone in the UK to move abroad?
@@danteluciani2318 not true but ok
5:00 you'd never catch a brit saying 'vacation'
It's impossible to say " vacation" as a Brit without using an American accent.
I actually can't say 'vacation' in an American accent, it comes off British.
Which is strange because I have an American accent but I've lived in the UK my entire life.
This is a mess, please ignore.

Also want to point out that if you don't pay off your student debt by the time you're 40 in the UK, it's written off!!
It's actually by the time you're 51. It's 30 years after finishing university, usually graduating at 21.
My cousin has university dept and he only pays back something rehdiculas like £5 a month then gets written off by the time he's 40 I think
They will change that in the future

I chose to live in England as there are so many costs and taxes in the States it eats your wage. Couldn’t believe the cost of everyday groceries in Walmart compared to Tesco, it was like double! Running a car can be cheaper in the States but the cars in England are usually more efficient. The biggest thing for me however was convenience. In the States I had to drive miles just do do a basic shop. Here in England even small towns have everything I need within a small walk. Both countries are great in their own way, I guess it just depends on how you live your life.
You do know we have other stores other than Walmart, right? lol.
Well, the cost of living in both countries is almost the same. It’s more expensive in the U.S, but you also make more money in the U.S.

we say pounds not dollars in britian m8
yeah but you cant compare if he says GBP then dollars because of conversion rates.. £1 is like $1.38 so no need to get angry at it
im not 100% on the conversion either.. but that is the answer i got from google lol
Yeah lmao the pound is worth more than the dollar so idek
I think it is so that the comparison is easier because £ is losing it's value with Brexit so if they said £ and $ then it would be a lot harder to compare. And because the creator and probably the majority of viewers are american and would find it easier to understand something in $.
Hope that cleared some things off
He was making it comparable

Bob Jeff did he continually say the United States of America???
NuggetsTM screeching at this, he never actually called it the United Kingdom of Great Britain AND NORTHERN IRELAND, instead just the United Kingdom of Great Britain
Liam Barrows Yes you are correct and the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland is the official terminology but most people say UK as it's implied that it involves Northern Ireland. Great Britain only involves England, Scotland and Wales. So you're sorta correct.
Craig Phoenix well he's not "sorta correct" he is correct?! The United Kingdom is the UK of GB and NI, that is the UK.. GB is Scot, Eng and Wales. NI is not part of GB it is only part of the UK. It's really not that difficult. Like I fucking wish it was the UK of GB with no NI but unfortunately that isn't the case :)(:

Can I just point out the massive population difference with the USA at around 325 million and here in the UK, around 65 million so some of your facts should relate to that (like how many billionaires there are etc) and also we have no where near the space you have, thats why our houses are smaller, but their cuter too! :)
Vaxiq Americans make houses out of bricks here is some wood but those houses there is nothing wrong with them they work fine
iOwn Squidz they always burn down and stuff
iOwn Squidz they burn easily though and in hotter areas of the US that are poorer have wooden houses as they are cheaper but are in the desert so they burn down also wooden houses full over a lot easier than brick houses do and the uk doesn't have wooden houses and doesn't have earthquakes

Well, yes; By law we are? The Countries in the United Kingdom are England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland so we are all British; I have a British passport and I have always had one.
JavozREKZ / REKZboss
They are, indeed, British. They aren't English.
JavozREKZ / REKZboss but we're not Irish we're Northern Irish, it's like saying England and Scotland are the same because they're on the same Island; The republic of Ireland have their own laws and culture and so does Northern Ireland.
Anyone else hate it when Americans say “oh I’m Irish” like na fam u American
George Stark do British people not say there Jamaican or something but nah fam your still British
Never heard an American say that, but if we do we’re talking about ethnicity or ancestry. Coming from a country made purely of immigration in the last 200 years we say what our ancestry is a lot. Because our massive amount of diversity. It’s like going to Africa and asking people that are there their ancestry when it’s 99.9% of the time going to be African.
Well I was born in America by my grandfather immigrated from Scotland and my grandmother was born in England. Does this make me pure American?
Anti-ticktick Special Forces yes. Because you are a natural born citizen.

Can I just say America is way way way wayyyyy bigger so of course they are going to have more room for bigger house plots and are going to have a bigger population for billionaires and other things as well!
It doesn't necessarliy mean they have more land for bigger houses, the populations of the UK and America are also different which means that with a population of 65 million for britain, we have 'x' amount of room for houses but America has a population of 330 million. Do you see what I mean?
Millicent Bowers Have you been to America? They definitely have more room for houses lol
I'm talking about how much room comparatively between both countries.
Millicent Bowers And so am I. In the UK, we have 660 people per square mile. The US only have 85!
Believe me, I am well aware of the housing shortage in Britain! I don't know why you're arguing the same point as me.

United Kingdom is different from Great Britain.
Great Britain consists of England, Scotalnd, and Wales.
United Kingdom consists of England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland, hence the name 'The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

Hang on, america has more billionaires because the population is greatly bigger. In America, 0.00017% of people are billionaires, but in the UK, 0.0002% of people are billionaires, so technically we have more in relation to population size...
The UK has between 45 and 54 billionaires depending on who is reporting it, so we'll say 54 in a population of 66.65 million or 0.81 per 1 million population. The US has between 585 and 614 billionaires (we'll use 585) in a population of 328 million or 1.78 per 1 million population. That means that the US has more than twice as many billionaires per capita than the UK has (220% as many billionaires per capita than the UK when comparing the minimum reported number for the US and the maximum for the UK).
Rich i used the figures from the video itself- 134 for the uk and 565 for america as that would provide an even basis as they must have been from reliable(ish) sources for the video to use them. Plus it also depends on whether £1bn or $1bn is used, since 1bn pounds is 1.2bn dollars. On the sunday times rich list, 148 people are listed as having atleast 1bn pounds, and 123 have 1.2bn pounds or more- which is the equivalent of being a billionaire in america (1bn dollars) . But then in an article by CNBC, the uk is stated as having 93, showing how is can change depending on who reports it, hence why I used data from the video as the sources must have been the same or trustworthy.
Ultimately, i wasn't trying to make a statement about the uk being better, I just wanted to put it into perspective that the us population is almost 5 times bigger or something like that, so naturally they would have more billionaires, which is something the video neglected to mention.
@@ellaf3877 dude, is it right that the price of smart phones in UK are much expensive than the price in other countries?
MOBILE SPECS i think so. I don't think its wildly more, but it could be a bit more. I think though, it is partly down to the fact that more people buy monthly contracts, where I am paying for the sim-card and the phone in one go, instead of using a sim-only plan, where you buy the sim card separate from the phone, which makes the price of the phone appear cheaper.

Ahhh i all ways thought the USA had taller men and women than us Brits, guess its all that BS thats in the Films and Tv.
How does that change anything to do with average height?
They should have done a bit of research instead of taking what the BBC told them. In actuality USA men are taller than British. The Average British male is not 5'10. the ave female is not 5'5. Some simple research could have saved them from this.
Americans might think they're taller because they watch basketball. I am a Brit who spent most of his younger life in the USA, and at 5'11" I was taller than most American men.
MMRG carnival ouw naked girls here. B_razil
dfirthc An actual 5"11 is on the tall side for all countries. Average American male is roughly 5'9, average British male slightly less. Those numbers are from studies where heights were measured, not self reported. On that note, however, there are several "studies" giving different numbers which calls into question how accurate any of them are and how representative the samples are. Why use measured over self-reported? Because just like women lie about their weight, rounding down, males tend to up their height more than what they actually are.

Matthew Washer: Hahahahahahaha. Go back to school, mate. Great Britain is a single island containing England, Scotland and Wales. Ireland is a different island, but the Northern part is governed by the UK (as it's part of it). The 'British Isles' is an outdated title that is rarely used any more. The Republic of Ireland is a separate sovereign state, but Northern Ireland is part of the UK, not the Republic of Ireland. Have you never heard of the Troubles? The whole reason for them is because of the UK/Ireland dispute in Northern Ireland. Just Google it to avoid sounding really, really stupid in future.
Having more vehicles isn't a good thing, america
Because more vehicles equals more pollution ☹
panther harper, since when did we say it was a good thing
And accidents
I guess the entire population, all those millions of people with homes in America, said the exact words “there’s no flaws about having more vehicles!” Lmao you are so stupid
Sadly
To be honest, in England, cars aren't necessary for transport. I can take a train to reading or oxford easily. Furthermore, you shouldn't be proud of more people owning cars, the emissions are astonishing!
According to Americans on Quora describing their experiences visiting/living in the UK compared to US, 2 things that they noted was our higher standard of public transport, a well connected and far reaching network thus a car is, for plenty: a non-essential, that said majority of households have at least one car, usually 2 where I live.
Obviously it helps that we are geographically smaller to establish such a country wide network.
Secondly; that there are a lot of ‘helicopter parents’ in the US, parents will drive their teens from one thing to the next, even if it’s a mile away (apparently walking to places is less of a ‘thing’ too), whereas here teens will often just make their own way to places they want to go (due to public transport/walking etc) yes parents do give lifts too if getting there is particularly tricky, but it’s not as extreme as in US, where the teens are more dependent on parents’ cars. I’m told this is partly due to some ‘state of constant fear’ that’s seeped into US culture since the 1980/90s, some blame their media (adverts, TV/Film) for hyping up a false sense of danger everywhere, and less inclusivity of different cultures in communities. It’s both interesting and sad.
But anyway that (to me) explains why cars are of particular importance and popularity to Americans. I just hope they all switch to eco-friendly fuel types soon, more powerful than some realise too. (According to Robert Llewelyn [Kryten, to us] and he is now a convert and expert on it).
