I was surprised in the middle of the song, I realized it was "Smooth" by Rob Thomas and Santana. How cool is that? These musicians were playing something so modern. I even sang the lyrics to the tune, it matched nicely. Nice video Sam.
For any doubters: It's fuzzy, but it appears that the letters below 80 on the speedometer at 15:03 are "mph." So they really are going over 100 mph, not 100 km/hr, which would be only about 62 mph. In fact, the yellow numbers in the inner circle must be the speed in km/hr, since they're bigger than the corresponding white numbers. The biggest yellow number is 240, which is about lined up with the white 150. 240 km/hr is about 149 mph.
OMG, I love those Sommerrodelbahnen so much! Like, if I was minutes away from death of blood loss and someone'd ask me "Hospital or rodeln?", I'd definitely go for a ride.
You should definitely check out northern Germany, too. Especially the Baltic Sea has some amazing places to see in the Summer. Go to Fehmarn for example. It's one of the places in Germany with most hours of sunshine. And of course Hamburg is a city non-comparable to any other German city. One night of good partying on the Reeperbahn and it's gonna be hard to top that. It's a whole different flair there. I know it's a long drive from Stuttgart but it would be worth it. I like your videos a lot, thanks for sharing.
I really liked this video dude.. your presentation and video production is pretty good, really fun. I'm gonna sub. Look forward to watching all the rest of your videos :)
Did the Rodelbahn in Todtnau in 2012. Had fun driving 100+ mpg, too. Not sure if you drive stick, but it's easy to pick up and even more fun! Keep them coming!
I hiked there! That was a beatiful trip... And I done this Rollercoaster-thing, one hundred times, everytime I where in the area... =) It makes fun and it´s cheap, if you compare it with other stuff. Nice video!
accidently came across your vids, nice to see our country from another point of view... hope you are enjoying your time here! greetings from Kiel at the Baltic Ocean ;)
I have been living in Germany for over a year now in Augsburg, so the Black Forest area is one place I must go see before I return to the USA. Wish I had a video camera so I could record my travels, but awesome video. Thanks!
Best joke is at 10:16 about someone with OCD having a seizure seeing all the clock pendulums swinging out of sync. I was going to ask what you call that ride that ran in free fall around and down the hills, but then I zeroed in on the sign at 12:10. I think it says *Rodelbahn Gutach Öffnung April bis Oktober: **9:00** - **18:00**.* This translates as Toboggan run Gutach opening April - October 9 AM - 6 PM. I don't understand *Gutach.* However, *Gutachten* can mean expert's report; so perhaps *Gutach Öffnung* means official opening or exact times of operation? Can someone explain *Gutach*?
Dokus LOL! No wonder I didn't understand Gutach! *Danke!* Because I thought I had a language problem, it didn't occur to me to google Gutach. Lesson learned: Always google before giving up!
Dokus Good point, thanks! I try to be self-reliant, so I was thinking I gave up and asked. But yeah, there are a lot of helpful people on the Internet (like you), so it doesn't hurt to ask.
Interesting video of the Black Forest. You can reduce the shake by selecting the magic wand icon on TH-cam. I use it frequently for videos from autos or from walking.
Hi Sam! I just discovered Germanys black forest online and basically fell in love! so I tried to find some videos on it and found yours and its safe to say I definitely want to go now! please could you tell me where the rollercoaster ride is and how much it is? would it be possible to visit the places you visited in Germany without a car? i was thinking about going to visit on my own as an adventure and also cause I live in the UK so Im not far. would you recommend it? from Pheebs. :) *goes to watch your other videos*
I'm going to The Black Forest in Germany soon, I'm from the UK and am visiting Karlsruhe. I have a day planned to visit there and your video has made me more excited. Where abouts is that little ride though and what is it called. Thanks B
Hey Sam, do you mind if I use a short footage of your hike through the forest on a video I am making? It's about amazing places you should visit before you die and I would give you full credit. Thanks for your time! Amazing seeing the true beauty of the Black Forest in first person! :)
My family and I have been to the Schwarzwald in 2016 and we’ve been to the same tourism shops there, to the waterfall and to the 'Rodelbahn' as it’s called too 😂😂
+Tridhos Hamburgers are popular in Germany; and, some claim they originated there...but, I understand your point. I'd have returned home thirty pounds heavier from eating every kind of German sausage in sight, along with beer. :D
+_who_cares_ That's what I thought, but, you know how others often claim they originated, invented, and, discovered different things. Most of the world believes that the Polish invented the perogi and galumpki...but, they only invented the name change. It was the Swedish who introduced those foods during their occupation of that region in the 1500-1600s before they were pushed out by Peter The Great. Ironically, I read that in a Polish cookbook!?!?
I went to the Black Forest two weeks ago, it was okay, but a bit too cloudy. But I wonder about you, being from Greenville in California, didn't you get a culture shock when you came in my beautiful country? Facing all the technology, great cars, people eating with forks and knives and being civilised? Did it take long for you to adapt? I hope you use your stay to learn useful things, so you can be an educated American. :-)
I'm from Greenville, South Carolina. Not California. And I would say we're very civilized in America! (We DO use forks and knives.) xD There are definitely more nice cars here than in my part of America, but I wouldn't say technology in general is any better. And I'm still adapting. Thanks for watching! :)
waaah, i've been in triberg 2 years ago. stood right there at the waterfall - so beautiful! :3 BUT! my friend and i had to go that slope you were walking at in the beginning to very f***ing top, because that's where we parked our car... it was so damn hot in august! ;A; really like your videos by the way! :)
It's funny seeing the town where you go to work daily through the eyes of a turist. And i'm always like: who wants to visit Triberg, it's not THAT beautiful :D Did you also visit Schonach on that trip? My home town btw... :D
I went to Triberg with my family in the last summer holidays and it was pretty awesome :) We also looked at the biggest Kuckucksuhr and went on the Sommerrodelbahn :) Are you still in Germany? When yes, hope you'll have a great time and when not I hope you had a great time visiting us here in Germany :) xoxo
okay so you will take me to Heidelberg?? GOOD cause I have never been there (only in the trainstation once) also I could show you arround the German part of Italy :)
Sehr cool! Ich komme aus dem Schwarzwald und lebe jetzt für ein Jahr in Maryland!! Freut mich das es dir in Deutschland so gut gefällt!! Thats really nice, i´m from the Black Forest and live for one Year in Maryland! I´m pleased that you like Germany!!
Very nice. But you don't go to another country to hear your own country music, or eat a cheeseburger. You go there to eat sausage and cheese and bread rolls dishes and to listen to their country music. Just doesn’t make sense.
No, we did NOT buy that crap. xD If we were going to buy a clock we would have gotten a real one. Lol There was a lot of cheap junk at those stores but they had some reeeeealy nice stuff too.
why oh why do they, who live in Baden-Würtenberg vote for the Green party? Why oh why do they residents of one of the most beautiful places in the world have to be crazy :D
Oh yeah, so crazy. Trying to keep our air and water from becoming full of poisonous chemicals, and making sure we have a livable planet to pass on to our grandchildren. Mad!
Was 'ne Klischeescheiße. Ja logisch gibt's im Schwarzwald Kuckucksuhren. Und wer kauft die in aller erster Linie? Japaner und Amerikaner! So sieht's doch aus.
I was surprised in the middle of the song, I realized it was "Smooth" by Rob Thomas and Santana. How cool is that? These musicians were playing something so modern. I even sang the lyrics to the tune, it matched nicely. Nice video Sam.
Wow, great video, My Great Grandmother lived in the Black Forest, a long long time ago in the late1800's. Thanks for posting!

FYI There's a beautiful light fest in Triberg around Christmas, I was there last winter!
12:55 Forget Verbolten... this is the TRUE way to "Brave the Black Forest!"
I will be studying in Germany next year, your videos are very informative to me, thank you from Jordan :)
on witch place ?
Which city bro?
Very nice street performance to start the video🌸🌸🌸 Everything else its just beautiful, I love it, thanks for sharing!🌸🌸🌸
this is nice, kinda reminds me of my youth, going on roadtrips and sightseeing with my family... nice times :)
12:47 was at the Söllereck Sommerrodelbahn.
OMG, I love those Sommerrodelbahnen so much! Like, if I was minutes away from death of blood loss and someone'd ask me "Hospital or rodeln?", I'd definitely go for a ride.

It's a whole different flair there. I know it's a long drive from Stuttgart but it would be worth it.
I like your videos a lot, thanks for sharing.
Flensburg has Some nice springs
Hamburg, meine Perle!
Did you watch the episode of Hogan's Heroes with the clocks? trying to rememeber what season the eppi was.
I really liked this video dude.. your presentation and video production is pretty good, really fun. I'm gonna sub. Look forward to watching all the rest of your videos :)

We need to set up a bunch of those little train-track rides in rural America. It'd give the kids something fun to do.
I have been living in Germany for over a year now in Augsburg, so the Black Forest area is one place I must go see before I return to the USA. Wish I had a video camera so I could record my travels, but awesome video. Thanks!
Thank you for presenting my home :D I live in the Black Forest!

+alwaysuseless gutach is a small town down there. obviously the rodelbahn is located in or near the town of gutach.
Dokus LOL! No wonder I didn't understand Gutach! *Danke!* Because I thought I had a language problem, it didn't occur to me to google Gutach. Lesson learned: Always google before giving up!
+alwaysuseless you didnt gave up, you asked. thats the way.
Dokus Good point, thanks! I try to be self-reliant, so I was thinking I gave up and asked. But yeah, there are a lot of helpful people on the Internet (like you), so it doesn't hurt to ask.
Gutach is the name of the place
Definitely on my bucket list (Black Forest):D
Interesting video of the Black Forest.

Hi,
Where was the fairground type ride... wanna have a go at that!
Hey Sam, do you mind if I use a short footage of your hike through the forest on a video I am making? It's about amazing places you should visit before you die and I would give you full credit. Thanks for your time! Amazing seeing the true beauty of the Black Forest in first person! :)
Absolutely! Go right ahead! Although I must say I'm sure you could find better footage elsewhere... But yeah feel free! :D
theres a place in Hollister MO, just like that!
My ancestors came from black forest and then migrated to Austria a few hundred years ago for reasons I'm not sure of...
though breathing :D I like your videos and I was happy seeing you were in the good, the badisch part of the black forest XD
with what program are you working for editing the videos??
Final Cut Pro X
SamWaltonMan Okay danke für die schnelle Antwort
5:56 the moment when you were there too lool xD
My family and I have been to the Schwarzwald in 2016 and we’ve been to the same tourism shops there, to the waterfall and to the 'Rodelbahn' as it’s called too 😂😂
That's Oberstdorf right? Because I think I might have been there before...
What made you decide to move to Stuttgart?
We are coming to germany in September 2015 we have been watching your videos. Thanks for the idea's.
what a well done video. I feel like I went there.
You should plan a trip to a CCC (Chaos Computer Club) event, I think you would have fun.
You are in the Black Forest and you chose to eat a hamburger! Wonderful to see the Germans taking such care of their environment.
+Tridhos Hamburgers are popular in Germany; and, some claim they originated there...but, I understand your point. I'd have returned home thirty pounds heavier from eating every kind of German sausage in sight, along with beer. :D
+classiclistener01 Hamburgers originated in Germany because of their Name Hamurger --> Hamburg (a City in zhe North of Germany)
+_who_cares_ That's what I thought, but, you know how others often claim they originated, invented, and, discovered different things. Most of the world believes that the Polish invented the perogi and galumpki...but, they only invented the name change.

The worlds biggest kookoo clock, that is cool...good vid.
Greenville, SC is my hometown!!!
I've only been to a smug of the Black Forest. It'd be cool to go again but like you did in this video.
It's called "SCHWARZWALD!!" XD
MigotRen that's what it's called in German

+rafa saleem Triberg!
+Silvia Isele thank you

Did you also visit Schonach on that trip? My home town btw... :D
Aber ned des schonach bei Haslach oda?:D
+Wasted Lifetime Es gibt nur ein schonach in bw :D
achso ich wusst nur das es 2 schonachs gibt aber wo des andere liegt wusst ich ned:D
Will you do a video of the Nurburgring? Love to see it
Sehr schöne Reportage.Gut gemacht!
you need to slow down the movement of your camera turn then stop and your focus is far to close
In fact she used to pick mushrooms there, did you see any mushrooms?
I wish the fairytale places were real in the black forest that's where they take place
I went to Triberg with my family in the last summer holidays and it was pretty awesome :) We also looked at the biggest Kuckucksuhr and went on the Sommerrodelbahn :)
Are you still in Germany? When yes, hope you'll have a great time and when not I hope you had a great time visiting us here in Germany :)
xoxo
The House of the 1000 Clocks is only 85,9 km away from home :D
okay so you will take me to Heidelberg?? GOOD cause I have never been there (only in the trainstation once)
also I could show you arround the German part of Italy :)
Holy sheet I've been there!
Triberg :)
Im about to travel to Freisburg im Breisgau, so this is helpul to make me an ideas hows it is!

TheSmartie1992
So true.
COOL ROLLERCOASTER RIDE !
I guess this place is called Triberg.
Same Intro as Familie Bert from Alberto :D
That moment when you already did everything shown in the video...

Little boy tagging along!
Europa Park is the best place in Germany
Sehr cool! Ich komme aus dem Schwarzwald und lebe jetzt für ein Jahr in Maryland!! Freut mich das es dir in Deutschland so gut gefällt!!

***** ja, geht mir genau so... obwohl ich in Todtnau nur 2x war...
YAAAY skied at the Feldberg

And? Nothing bad about it at all. In the past everyone stayed in their Region/state.
Garden sweetpea! Haha!
My ancestors were from the Black Forest
Ps I am not Jon ossoff lmao
I want that beerstein with the eagle
Grateful to see, but you need to hold the camera more steady. You are jumping around too much.
hdf
Oh boy, it's tree-berg and not tree-berd :D
Love your vids!
cool stuff thankyou
Very nice. But you don't go to another country to hear your own country music, or eat a cheeseburger. You go there to eat sausage and cheese and bread rolls dishes and to listen to their country music. Just doesn’t make sense.
Did you mean Triberg? Tree-berk. Trie-bärk. Triberg. Hope that was helpful :)
My mistake, it was actually my Grandmothers Grandmother, so that would make her my great-great Grandmother.
nice video...come to berlin and you will have a lot of fun...greetings from berlin
Ya ya, this is nice and all but where are the withes, demons and supernatural?
LMAO I want to get some super ocd person in here and will probably have a seizure!!
What's the point of putting awful music over that downhill ride?
Just use the raw footage and real, recorded sound.
Der Schwarzwald ist wirklich schön
Schwarzwald i life there nice episode :)
No, we did NOT buy that crap. xD If we were going to buy a clock we would have gotten a real one. Lol
There was a lot of cheap junk at those stores but they had some reeeeealy nice stuff too.
Might be great for a verbolten movie.
Yep! Hahahaha
i live 20 minutes away from that :D
cool
The cake is a lie.
why oh why do they, who live in Baden-Würtenberg vote for the Green party? Why oh why do they residents of one of the most beautiful places in the world have to be crazy :D
+41Djfu#lksdkjfd What in your opinion would not be crazy?
+41Djfu#lksdkjfd i live in Baden-Würtenberg ^^ Das Schwäbische Land :D
Oh yeah, so crazy. Trying to keep our air and water from becoming full of poisonous chemicals, and making sure we have a livable planet to pass on to our grandchildren. Mad!
Yellow Blue
For a "Original", you have to spend about 300€
Rodelbahn!!! :D
Was 'ne Klischeescheiße. Ja logisch gibt's im Schwarzwald Kuckucksuhren. Und wer kauft die in aller erster Linie? Japaner und Amerikaner! So sieht's doch aus.
Chinesen, du hast du Chinesen vergessen :D
Franzosen fehlen auch noch...
Koreaner
Ja und? Eigentlich traurig da es ein Deutsches Kulturgut ist...
Kulturgut? Naja..... Ansichtssache. Auf jeden Fall KITSCHgut!
