The Finnish Way of Drinking - Robert Gustafsson

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 ต.ค. 2024
- Swedish comedian Robert Gustafsson portrays the 5 (stereotypical) stages of Finnish drinking on the TV-show Time Out. English subtitles. NB
Yes, the subtitles are wrong, at 0:14 Gustafsson says "euphoric happiness", not "fool's happiness" (although they are practically the same ;))
I misheard it when I hastily translated it for a friend to explain the Finnish mentality when it comes to alcohol, I never thought the video would get so many views... But the subs are hard-coded so I can't change them anymore.
Tack och förlåt!
okay, as a finnish native speaker his accent is so on point it confuses me. like everything he says sounds like real finnish words, like he was actually speaking fluent finnish, but nothing he says makes sense.... it’s like i understand it and don’t at the same time. basically like listening to a real finnish drunk. so black out drunk nothing he says makes sense, but it sounds like it should. 😂
robert gustafsson is amazing at imitating swedish accents as well, didn't know it translated into finnish too :P
Tl;dr he sounds like a drunken finn because you can't make sence what he's saying
Henkka Henrik Can you give an assessment of the «accuracy» in this clip where the late Norwegian comedian Harald Heide Steen jr speaks gibberish Finnish? The clip starts with him (in character) speaking a Western Norwegian dialect, and then at 0:26 he encounters a Finn in the sauna on a ferry to Finland:

selenographia there is a slight swedish accent to it. it’s just a tad too soft and expressive. like probably somebody from åland, or a swedish guy living in finland. finnish accent is a bit more monotone and harsh than that. like we were a tad angry and swearing all the time no matter what we say.
Henkka Henrik that’s very interesting information that I could not know unless told by a native speaker of Finnish. Thank you very much and greetings from Norway!
I'd say it's pretty accurate
Rubenick you have no idea how many times this has happend whenever my dad have gotten drunk XD
Not too accurate. But funny.
That sounds like a pinpoint accurate description of a nice and satisfactory evening. :-)
yup. spot on.
still so funny =) haha showed it to my finnish friends here in sweden and they still havnt seen it ... haha they laughed their ass off... its so accurate.. but the finnish he speaks not so much =) watching in 2019 haha
Sounds like finnish, but its not. Exciting to listen, because sounds like finnish (my mother language) but you still don't understand it. That's good imitating.
kyllä sen saatana perkele ymmärs
+Hi im sparkles second one Saatana perkelettä ennen oli [gibberish] eli siansaksa
Skärp dig för fan. De flesta finnar tycker att det är kul ju. Vad är ditt problem?
Varför är du så aggressiv? Personligen tyckte jag det var en intressant observation. Det visar att Robert är bra på dialekter och språk. Poängen med ts första kommentar var inte att klaga på att det var gibberish, utan att påpeka att det var en bra imitation. Dumfan.
You can hear some words like kaskelotti or minä
Oh, I forgot to mention, The Coma to which drinking ends, is also known as a Monday.
Monday? You dont happen to mean sunday vol. 2?
Although he imitates a Finn in gibberish, it sounds like our language a lot! He did great job adapting the accent and some kind 'tempo' in our way of speech. I laughed so hard since those stages of getting drunk is true of some people :,D I'm a Finn as well
last time i had this phase of drunkness in Suomi...i somehow got slapped by a really pretty girl...no idea what i said, but apparently i mastered Suomiska.
Oddly, this is also the typical reaction Finns have when watching their Hockey team play Sweden, Canada, or Russia..
other way around this year :
Well... I would say it has been other way around this year! 😂
It's because that's done drunk as well. Not because of the outcome of the game.
And now USA...my Finnish friends tell me.
100% of the finnish people sounded like this in 2003...5-1 to 6-5 in the world hockey cup
I'm a finn and I laughed my ass off! This video goes to my favourites, hahaha!! Gonna show this to my Swedish teacher!
;D
I'm a 3rd generation Finnish diaspora. It must be in the DNA or something because I do this exact same thing. But mine goes this way...Silence, fool's happiness and altruism, sadness, anger, coma, regret.
@dimapez Yup. Alcohol, the cause of...and answer to all of life's problems.
Oh no... How are you going to poo from now on?
Why, teachers arent built that way. Instead they will say:BACK TO WORK!!!!!
This guy could go to a bar and talk like this in Finland and people would get confused whether they forgot their language
That would be so funny 🤣
Miesparka kaipaa kaskelottiaan... kaikilla suomalaisillahan on kaskelotti :)
Voi voivoi... miun kaskelotti SAATANA PERKELE! TORILLA TAVATAAN
korva kokikalogi skiisskklajnen
Väinönsuon kaskelotti :D
Ja maha kurnii
Tai kaksi...
Golden, golden, golden, absolutely golden! Cheers from a Finn! This is so spot on - even the pure gibberish parts were in some weird way well rooted in Finnish phonetics, prosody and intonation. This guy is clearly a genius. I hope he'll do a comedy tour across Finland. All thumbs up!
he's been the most famous comedian in Sweden since the 90's, the guy is hilarious :D
@@sisyr5615 he is the best we have, and maybe ever will have :)
This is 100% true.
Last year, Robert Gustafsson was awarded the most prestigious Pro Finlandia Medal of the Order of the Lion of Finland for his unparallelled efforts in the domain of examining and portraying the Finnish mind and Finnish Culture.
I am Finnish and I have to say that partaj and Robert Gustafsson imitate Finnish people perfectly. Very funny XD More comedy like this. I can´t get enough. If you can´t laught at yourself you are just way too serious :)
I’m Swedish and I must say wekre blessed to have him, he’s by FAR the best swedish comedian
i suppose, he is the only comedian? XD
I find that sad
That "voi voi voi" was so hilariously accurate
Smör amör smör
@@cste9146 Precis 🤣🤣
what do you actually say then like that ;D smör
Lol what does that mean? Nothing?😂
As a Finnish man who drinks, i can confirm this is true
As a half Finn, I saw a lot of this when I grew up in the 80's from my uncles. You get the whole spectrum of feelings 🤣 I'm no different, but only half of the time 🤣
Robert Gustafsson is also a master of the Northen Swedish dialect! :)
Nej
Seems like he is indeed. :D
Sjchoooo...!👍
No, he was not very good at that one
I have been watching this over and over and over. It never gets bad or old in that matter. And it's pretty accurate too.
Greetings from Finland!!!
And i had many finnish friends in Sweden before and i know its true.
Only in Hockey we are enemys!
😆 Greetings back to you from Sweden
You know, this is not only super hilarious, but he is actually very talented. I mean, he is just brilliant..
Robert Gustavsson is Sweden's most talented comedian, most likely Sweden's greatest comedian throughout modern times :)
Who's drunk right now watching this?
I'm finnish and i laugh at this :D
FirstOnRaceDay Capri 2904 me too. xDD mikä vitun kaskelotti?! xDD
sä et tie mikä on kaskelotti? voi hyvä luoja
Kyllä minä tiedän mikä merinisäkäs kaskelotti on, mutta mitä helvettiä se tekee tässä Ruotsi konseptissa...... ja en kutsuisi sitä luojaa tähän avuksesi koska siitäkään ei olisi mitään hyötyä. xP

Tauno and Veikko shared their parents' home. Father died and Veikko stayed while Tauno went to America and he won a prize in the lottery. He bought a ticket to Finland and went home to visit He saw his brother going into the tavern, where they basked in each other's glow for some minutes. Finally Tauno asked "How's mother/" Veikko answered angrily, "Say! Did you come here to talk or to drink?"
that Saatana Perkele make Finns smile and laugh :D thats just god damn hilarius
As a finnish native, hes 90% on point. We do act like that without the crying part and end up in coma
I had a Finnish customer that many time after a beer to many came talking to me crying about his former wife and how he still loved her
Hahahahaha. I'm finnish and I laughed my ass off! This guy is HILARIOUS. Have to see more about Robert Gustafsson x)
As a Finn I have to agree... this is pretty much how it goes... and damn well acted... he sounds like Finn also.
As a Finnish person, I can say that this is 100% accurate
No perkele sentään. Love it. "Kaskelotti" 😂😂😂
Being a finnish man, I can confirm this is true.
king tommi
This was awesome xD. Thankful to have such awesome neighbors :D
This never get’s old, he is the only guy who can speak Finnish without speaking it 😁
Greetings from Finland! This is brilliant, I laughed my ass off XD
The guy sounds and acts very accurately like your average Finnish middle aged, old school man who's drunk. Very accurate!
"Euforisk glädje"= "Fool's Happiness"?!? Njae...
Den översättningen är nästan lika rolig som klippet i sig!
Robert Gustavsson är iaf. flera klasser bättre än alla andra svenska komiker. Helt fantastisk!
He's not saying "fool's happiness", he's saying euphoric happiness.
Which is basicly the same, the point got thru for most nonetheless 😁👍
That's my weekend.
No matter how many times I watch this, it's every time as good as for the first time. Many times situation goes exactly like described on this video. And yes, I'am Finn.
Finnish People wont stfu about being Finnish in these comments... As a finn, i noticed.
Now tell Me how you really feel 🤔
@@andriandrason1318 that was the joke..
Feel? Something like hungry?
Fucking hilarious (compulsaroy "and I'm a Finn" remark).
Guess what, I do the same things and I'm not a finn...
There must be a finn somewhere in my soul... :D
SAATANA PERKELE!
+Liekki Valo Åkerfeldt Maybe it is your name Liekki and Valo. Cant get more finnish than that.
Judging by the name you're most likely finlandsvensk (fennoswede) and it's highly likely you have finns in your genetics. I am half fennoswede and I don't doubt I have finnish as well as swedish ancestors.
yeah, I agree, this pretty much applies to us Estonians aswell :D
dude: speaks finnish
subtitles: gibberish
som finländare kan jag bekräfta detta. :D
Aivan mahtava! Outstanding imitation :D
There's one minor translation error at the beginning here, he doesn't say "fool's happiness" but "euphoric happiness". I guess the translator thought that he said the word "fool's" in English for some reason, but what he says is "euforisk glädje".
@cobrastern Doesnt really matter, its nice to see somebody taking the time to translate one of the greatest comedian of swedish history :)
That moment when he said SAATANA PERKELE! I felt it.
Härre guuuuud😂😂😂😂I’m a Finn and I have to say there aren’t better imitation of Finnish drunk old men than this one😂Jag älskar svenskar!💕
haha i showed this to my finnish friends here in sweden and they laugh to hard.. still... they have missed this video.. they say its sooooooooo true =) finns say they can hold the alco so much but that aint true =) always so angry haha.. fast du kanske pratar svenska eftersom du skrev härre guuuuuud så vet inte varför jag svara på engelska... perkele kaskelotti.. krapula huomenna
DjMiBsweden Hahhaah I can imagine their reactions😂I think you’re right about the thing that Finns can’t really hold the alcohol that much😬even though I’m sober and I don’t have any personal experience about alco but I’m basically telling what I’ve seen here. Ja, jag kan prata lite svenska men jag förstår engelska bättre. Jag borde flytta till Sverige att jag lärde mig prata flytande svenska😁Har dina finska vänner lärt dig några finska ord?😂Jag gillar det!
I love it! :D The gibberish Finnish (and of course SAATANA PERKELE!) was awesome, I was laughing so hard! Greetings, a happy Finn
SAATANA PERKELE!!!
XD I love this!!! Thank you TH-cam for putting this in the recommended videos :)
Paras imitaatio koskaan :D top performance!
Does he not say "euphoric happiness? At 0:14.
+Embolo Bolo yup
+Embolo Bolo Yep. "Euforisk glädje"
as a finnish, i must admit that this is soooooo true :D
Swedish have so much better talk shows than we do here in Finland XD
Uutisvuoto.
Jokerijamis Eeehh... Ei oikeastaan minun mielestäni. Ei ne tosissaan ole hauskoja, en minä ainakaan repeile juurikaan heidän oivalluksilleen tai mitään.
Omasta mielestäni suomalainen huumori on muutenkin aika tylsähköä, mutta ehkä mielipiteeni on yksipuolinen siinnä suhteessa.
You can find the reason why that is in this video :I
Lauri Hirn Jep. Niin pystyy :p
Sweden is better generelly 😉:-)
I'm from Finland. I don't use alcohol at all (I'm 21), but I laughed so hard at this hilarious piece XD Mainly because it's SO true :D
now that your 31 how much do you drink?
@@kosonenkosonen9278 32, still don't consume at all ;)
First time ive seen a swedish person convincingly impersonate finns lol good job man this had me laughing my ass off
I love Finland support from Azerbaijan 🇦🇿🇫🇮
I dont see whats the problem here, I find this video very awesome and truthfull. Cheers my Swedish friend. :3
As a finn, i found this hilarious 😂
Hahahaha... that's true. I live in Finland. Brilliant video. :D
stages of swedish drinking:
1. coma
It KIND of sounded like finnish, I could only make out a few words though. Probably says "Suomalainen" (means finn) in the beginning of the joy phase, and something that sounds like "Kaskelotti" (sperm whale) in the sorrow phase, although it's probably not what he actually says. And of course there's saatana and perkele, the most common curse words in finnish. It's like you're listening to finnish, but not understanding it. Weird feeling.
Ah my jaw is hurting coz i fucking laughed my ass off!
Shouldnt it be ur ass thats hurting? :)
Here I was going to say that euforisk glädje doesn't mean fool's happiness, but what I find is an all out comment war. Please, can't we just have a cup of tea and chuckle to the video clip? I think the Finnish intoxication is beautiful.
I cannot stop watching this. I can't explain why except that Swede is funny when he goes into that "coma."
I love this guy, one of the funniest videos on YT! :D (from my viewpoint atleast, I'm Finnish btw)
As an norwegian this is so damn funny
I would love to learn why this is funny to you, as norwegian? I am finnish living in Norway and interested asf about how this tickles your black humor sense
Imitation is spot on. What he's saying certainly doesn't make any sense in Finnish (I'm a Finn) but it sure does sound hell of a lot like it, especially a drunk Finn.
Our comedian Robert Gustafsson is one of the funniest in Sweden for sure.
Man I love him!!
Growing up in Finnmark, I remember I would do drinking contests with anyone. Anyone except the Finlanders. I still tell people "Even if you win, you loose."
Hey fellow Finns! There is no need for be upset! This is very accurate and funny video which is also educational. I can clearly recognize myself on this :)
As a Finnish person, that pretty sums it all up :D
Hahaha, are you for real? This is hilarious and you as a Finn should just be proud of it! Had it been a Swede drinking, he would have passed out after half a Fanta :) Greetings from Finland!
Nå ja. Var lagom kaxig. Fast det sägs ju att det svensken dricker en kväll spiller finnen på västen😅
As a Spanish native speaker, this 00:37 is pretty interesting and fucking hilarious
He nailed it!
I m glad as a albanian had a chance to work with old finish welder bad as workers in Kockums Industrial in Malme Sweden.
They were very silent but they had a sense of humor. Very tuff.
Did they Finnish the job?
One of the best comedy pieces ever :) And also in many cases very true as well.
Turn on the English auto generated captions....... Wowser I'm dying hilariousness !!!!
that was so awesome xD I can't stop laughing. I remember Finnish sounding like that to me at first like all the time! haha! And drunk Finns used to scare me xD
Then you married one?
GreedAndSelfishness Haha I sure do love one very, very much ^^
Such a beautiful classic. Thanks swedes.
Added to favourites... Yeah, that's accurate. ;)
WTF...that was almost too accurate ;) Well done, made me laugh.
Yeah, that's about the gist of it.
Swedes have no idea how spot on that was.
😆
pretty accurate after few liqour bottles
Remembering the times when alcohol was cheap in Estonia, that video is so correct.
Typically Swedish humour doesn't go over me too well, but this is hilarious!
The way he hits his head on the table in 0:50 is oddly satisfying
Looks quite similar to the Irish way of drinking. Except they leave out the silent part, of course. :-)
(Disclaimer: I'm not Irish myself, I'm Austrian. But I have been over there quite a number of times
to live, er, sober up to tell the tale.)
Maybe my finnishness is slightly broken but I usually go from reserved to slightly happy to passive aggressive to depressed to throwing up
Meanwhile in Sweden: *tastes beer* 0:32
Yeah thats true, you know why? Because its almost empty. That explains the tears
As a finnish person I can 100% confirm this.
laughed my ass off here, good job swedes :'D
Hahaha! Päivän naurut, olihan toikin ihan pakko pistää tähän videoon :)
Haha, his mock Finnish is fantastic :D
Sibelius composing his 7th symphony [colorized]
Pretty funny. But its the same in sweden too. :D
A finish friend of mine once taught me to say "Hello, how are you?" in finish and told me to say that to an Big old finish guy here in Sweden. The words he told me was "Tule tänne minä haluan sinua". After that all was black...
haha do you have any idea what you really said to him? xD
Found out later :)
Sounds a bit like estonian
Brothers in arms.
Russian 5 stages of drinking :
1. Blyat
2. Blyat
3. Blyat
4. Blyat
5. Blyat
I heard that many times,what that means?
I can confirm this!
Yes. This is how it works.
