Feels like someone is about to announce an Amsterdam date and after the laughs in London we're ready!
Okay, this segment was absolutely true and Denmark is very much like that as well. They take biking very serious. As for German food there is other good foods and pastries like a Black Forest cake they should be forgiven for. Lol the Scandinavian talking was hilarious though. Thanks for the laughs today, your comedy is a great enjoyment.
Хрин-хрин - it’s in Russian😂
Free Palestine
Tears are rolling down my face! Great job Trevor! 🙂
As a Dutch person I am deeply offended, we would never put a helmet on our kids
Haha!
Correct this must have been an expat family 😂
Bikes are part of our body's. Helmets are not.
True, dutch people don’t wear helmets unless you’re a 70+ boomer
yes we would
As a swedish speaker myself, i laughed my lungs out. His gibberish swedish was hilarious. He said tack (thanks) and hejdå (bye). The rest is just bunter.
Then be careful watching this during winter :D
My honest question is, even being born there, can you get really used to the long days and nights, or getting tired of it as from the nonstop rain?
.
I was as far as Hamburg, and the sun was still up while going sleep and already up before I wake up. I was psychologically tortured, but I wasn't born up North. Does it feel natural or you want to colonize ?
Seriously 😂
@@szolanek I live in central Canada, so I can kind of relate. There are some times of the year where it's transitioning from those extremes, so its not as bad. For example, right now, the sun sets at 10:07 PM, and it gets dark at around 11:30 ish. The sun is back at it at 5:08 AM.
@@szolanek there is a town in Northern Sweden called Kiruna. In close to the arctic circle and in Winter the sun doesn't rise and in summer the sun doesn't set. People use clocks and eye blockers when sleeping. It gets even more interesting for Muslims trying to observe Ramadan. They will use Mecca time to start or break fasts. U get used but it takes long to adjust. The rain gets pretty bad if it falls after a snow fall because the snow becomes slippery and the risk of falling increases significantly. So u need spiked shoes and an umbrella in your bag.
“For 1 hour, I forgive you. Relax”.
🤣🤣🤣 Trevor is so silly.
I miss Trevor so much. I thought I needed you most during the pandemic but I was wrong. NOW I need you most.
yo cool buddy wid life..?
Yes I really miss him from the daily show.
NPC
Totally agree, we got to see him every day if we wanted. Especially here on TH-cam. Miss you tons Trevor, I can't wait to catch you when you come to the South East somewhere. ^^
Bit dramatic, don't you think? He's not dead.
The gray blanket of clouds with no end in sight is so real 😭😭
Growing up in Joburg summers was amazing. Sunshine all day. Then the storm hits in the afternoon, then it clears up and the sun comes out again for the afternoon and evening.
Last year there was like a month of clouds. It really got me
I travelled from Africa to The Netherlands in the dead of winter. I really did not understand the depth of cold I was getting to encounter. It was a particularly cols winter as well. My body could not make sense of the temperatures! It was around December time and the level of daylight and the length of the day were also incomprehensible to my circadian clock as well! It is hilarious to look back at it
😭😭😭
No clouds, just a grey sky
🤣🤣That’s the most legendary complaint about Amsterdammers ever! You're right, Trevor, we're too wild on two wheels!
to be fair every single expat says the same
😂😂😂 @vinaygowda-395
I mean, if you have to stop for every tourist who steps out onto the bike path without looking you’d never get anywhere in central Amsterdam 🤷♀️
@@rdklkje13 that is also very true!
Try Copenhagen. No prisoners taken there either! 😮😂
The Dutch bike thing is 1000% accurate. I am super guilty 😂😂😂
😂so why don’t use the brake?
Use the brakes bro 😂😂😂
@@Khalid-Haji idk why you have to explain this over and over but here we go: people in other places don't cycle for fun but to actually get somewhere (job, meeting, home etc.) So the bike is not a toy, but a means of transportation. If you wanted to mess with such, you could also step in front of a bus - but you don't. Why? Because the bus is stronger and therefore you have respect. How american is that: disrespect everyone just bc. they have a gun that's smaller than yours.
@@william4852-xs You wouldn't saunter out into car traffic without looking, why are you walking in the bike lane?
@@william4852-xs OUT OF MY WAY lalala
Love the way Trevor plays with languages. Great ear. Great talent.
His "Dutch" sounds more like German though.
@@fiachdubhe401more like Afrikaans 😉 there is an interview on TH-cam from Trevor Noah at rtl late night where he explains that if he speaks Afrikaans as if he is drunk, it sounds like Dutch 😂
@@fiachdubhe401 isn't one of his parents Swiss? Dad I assume.
Language talent 0
@@LydiajonkerAs someone who speaks both, it does sound more like German lol.
When you're slowing down every 20 meters for a tourist and braking every 50 meters for another tourist, who seem to not get the conecpt of roads and traffic now that they're abroad, it tends to wear patience thin. Very funny and spot on description :)
Check out Fran Lebowitz, she describes the same thing in Martin Scorcese's film Call it a City
lol tourist bring money too
@@Chocolateprincessmaya Yeah, but not to me. And when it's getting to much and to ignorant, it can drive a saint insane. 'Loud, tasteless and out of touch' was not a bad description.
When you are a tourist, a visitor, the least you can do is respect the culture. Stepping into heavy traffic, oblivious, thinking you're in a museum, is disrespectful. No amounts of money makes up for that. Unless you want to see yourself as a ho.
@@Chocolateprincessmaya not much of that money benefits the people of Amsterdam.
@@modnarpias Unless Amsterdam somehow adopted a very weird tax model, all the money spent by tourists is taxed and those taxes pay for countless programs you can benefit from and the infrastructure of Amsterdam and the rest of the country. Last year Amsterdam raked in an estimated 242.5 million euros from tourism alone.
Quick tip for visiting a city in The Netherlands, if the road is painted red consider it lava and get off it asap.
I'm a brother🇺🇬 from Sweden. Sometimes I don't even speak when it's cold, I just nod or shake my head 🤣🤣🤣
Also, I understood what words you were imitating: "Tack, Hej, Vad gör du...".
A Ugandan in Finland and I don't bother speaking at all. 😂😂😂. To who now?? 😅
I've spent time in Gothenburg for work. To me Swedish sounds like Italian but without the happiness.
Yep I'm from the notorious Pacific Northwest and it used to be the same but thanks to global warming we are the new California. A blessing and a curse but altleast my SAD is curbed
@@cocofrog1976as fellow SAD sufferer, I get you. We had a crazy heatwave in NYC last week, and those are the days that I was up early and most productive (eventhough I am not a fan of excessive heat) I was vibing off of the energy of the ☀ like Birdman!
Ug is the best
Trevoh Noah’s Jokes are so hilarious and educating at the same time 😀😀
I've seen an Amsterdam mom training her tiny toddler. He was probably 20 months or so, and had a tiny bike with no pedals. His feet could reach the ground, tho he had a seat. She walked slowly and waited for him down the sidewalk, and he scurried up to her. It was so cute! I watched from my son's balcony-it was cool seeing slices of life like that.
Oh yeah we learn how to bike at a young age. We even have a "bike exam" around 10/11 years old.
@@sportysp ik kwam hier om dat te zeggen!
That’s a pushbike. Have you seriously never seen a pushbike?
My brother had a version that looked like a red plastic locomotive! But it was the same job for the kid.
We were in Utrecht earlier this year and someone’s bell had broken so they rode through the crowd yelling “Ring ring!”. Tbh thought everyone responded the same way and just got out of the damn way because conditioning
The pic in my head ...so funny...little person riding shouting ring ring....so so funny!!!
Thku
It is more effective to use your voice. The tourists' reaction on a ring is often to stand still, curious were that cute sound comes from.
I'm Dutch, I do this in any country I visit when I cycle without a bell 😂
@@r0consciouslove that!!
That’s actually a normal thing here in The Netherlands 😅😂
Bro said Suriname and I felt so heard... Love from Suriname bro
Ja he, dat hij dat weet, deze man weet echt alles.
@@lifestyleandbodybalanced4463Toch?🇸🇷
"YAAA PAPA, YAAA PAPA" Trevor got me laughing out loud!!😂😂😅
That broke the audience completely. Do you realize how difficult it is to get a northern European audience to laugh like a Black audience? I mean that deserves a Nobel Peace Prize.
You mean 'jaaaaa' with a J bro
@@bkrider19 nahh that's true!!
Biking in The Netherlands is a means of transportation, independent and affordable. There's nothing more annoying than tourists walking in the bicycle lane, looking everywhere except where they're walking. Hitting the brakes takes away your momentum. Especially when it happens every fifty metres.
You know what I think is worse? When I see a group of Dutch tourist having a bike tour on a European city (outside the Netherlands) that is not planned, nor designed for cyclist.
@@jessicabautista6209 Really, Jessica? That is worse? Also, if there's a bike tour in that city, how do you think they got their bikes? Somebody's organising that - most tourists won't bring their full sized bikes to a city trip. They hire them from a company that organises bike tours. And because those exist, the tourists of course think it's o.k., so blame the organisers, not the tourists. Also, those aren't constant and frequent. It's one group that you can pass and then forget them. What is described above is all day every day. Silly sour grape.
@@chantalvanderende515the organizers, of course, being Dutch people
@@chantalvanderende515 and yeah, I think Dutch tourist being intrusive with bikes in cities that are not designed for them I believe are worse than tourist being in Amsterdam not knowing the difference between a bike lane and a walking lane. Compare to the first, in the later there is no bad intent, just ignorance.
I was in Amsterdam and then in the Hague. The cyclists in Hague are much more friendly than those in Amsterdam. I see myself a "well-behaving" tourist, still, the rudeness of some cyclists in Amsterdam shocked me.
I was at this show. I laughed at every joke, you are so funny,my type of humor. I adore you Trevor.Thank you for the laughter.
Where are you from? Just a study case I am trying to do?
@@petermuhoho3780😂
This was about 16 min. of ‘jokes’ so I’m astounded you laughed at one of those…
@@hansdenotter7376 what do you mean?
@@Times343I’m reacting on AnaMaria, it wasn’t that funny at all, this 16 min clip…!
As a German it's so interesting to see my own reaction to my culture being constantly associated with negative stereotypes. You become so used to it you just expect it to happen. It's a bit sad, but then you wonder if maybe you should feel flattered about having made everyone feel so safe about us that they aren't scared at all about our reaction. 😂
No worries man, the population of the countries that DO matter to Germany, the Dutch, the Danes, the Polish etc...have had decades to adjust the post war grudges.
I grew up in the 80s and 90s...learning our WWII history taught me to have any grievances I could muster against Germans.
But eventually growing up the sentiment completely shifted and we grew more financially attached than emotionally disdained.
You're by far the main motor of Europe... morally, economically, directionally... you're an prosperous and dedicated example for the rest of Europe to grow towards.
But to conclude, the sentiment outside the EU is irrelevant, and mostly fueled by lack of education and narrow mindedness.
I don't go on a holiday very often, but in a few weeks I'm doing a nice roadtrip between München, Maagdenburg and back home through the Ruhr...I'd rather do that than boring my mind into oblivion at some summer resort in a third world EU wannabe.
I have visited Germany at least three times. One of my favourite countries in Europe. The reputation is inaccurate to present-day Germany.
We Dutch love Germany! I visit at least yearly. Only city I found the people a bit difficult was München. People there are a bit 'short' with you. They seem a bit rushed.
yeah until they enter our roads bc germans can't drive for shit here. most dangerous traffic participants I have the displeasure of coming across
@@hadassahward7969 its so inaccurate so they started to vote and elect nazi parties again :D
With Trevor, you're always guaranteed to get your history lessons. Especially the bad one from which you yourself find it hard to laugh at.😂😂😂😂😂
I'm not saying you're not kind, I'm saying you're not warm... Such a laughable moment there 😂😂😂
This is perfect. I married a half-Dutch woman (also half Kiwi). Lived near Amsterdam for a couple years...yeah, not mean, but not warm. I went back to the US for a bit before me and my wife moved to New Zealand, and in New Mexico or Arizona I was going into this gas station and some guy held the door open for me and said "after you, sir"...I looked around for this "sir". Meanwhile, back in the Netherlands, it was "I have enjoyed your visit, but it is now time for dinner...have a nice evening. Bye."
Bicycle CRAZINESS , We are from San Diego, and just returned from the Netherlands; experience the bicycle craziness. Trevor! You nailed it that’s exactly how it is. We were shocked and amazed that we didn’t see more head on collisions or people clipping each other‘s handlebars or kids flying out of their bicycle seat.
We used to race bicycles and it was mind-blowing to watch these people intertwine throughout the towns. We asked the Innkeeper the best day to ride a bike if don’t want to get into an accident, SUNDAY! You were right! The day to ride on the side streets and get out to the country perfect.
Your skit was right on thank you. I laughed so hard. I was crying.
This is just Amsterdam. Crowded with bicycles and tourists that don't understand eachother. Other places have less tourists and outside the big cities also less bicycles.
I didn't know much about Africa/S Àfrica until Trevor came.When President Mandela died I was affected and I didn't even know him but through Trevor I really felt sad because I could feel Trevor's loss.
Ah yes. Typical American ignorance. Please stay away.
But that makes sense. The bikes are not leisure here it is a mean of transportation and bikers have roads and rules , just like cars. And people are going to work, to pick up their kids from school, with heavy groceries and so on.
And plus to this , those people are not at all protected, like in the cars. If the do a sharp turn, or slip, they go flying and meet a hard ground!
Mate, the secret is that we, unlike you guys, _care for each other!_ So it’s a dance of social interaction.
We see our fellow citizens that we cooperate with. You only see everyone as competition and an enemy. So it’s a king of the hill last-man-standing MMA cage fight.
Also, we learn to ride a bike without touching the handlebar, _including_ curves and going in and out of circles, before we hit puberty! We learn to dismount the bike and stand on one pedal and _then_ brake and get off and keep walking elegantly like there was no transition. We can all ride at walking speed in a crowd and not fall over nor hit anyone, if we have to.
I love how Trevor cannot get a Dutch accent right, alternating between German and Indian haha :P

What did I do with this croissant 😂
I think I have learned more about culture, and why certain things are the way they are in different parts of the world, from Trevor Noah than the other human being. Well done! And if you read these comments yourself, Trevor, well done, sir! Big fan of your work. Bought and read your book, “born a crime”.
Trevor just showing off his mad multilingual skills! Such an intellect. ❤
Finally a stand-up devoid of American context YAY
Yes, at last!
He is afraid that they will not let him in again under Trump... If he wants to use US content again he must move to another country.
Because he is South African.
@Dharmarenee Yes but, he lives in New York.
Trevor's IQ beats the ceiling 🙌🏽 when wisdom mixes Humor you get Trevor!!
He steps on a bike lane without looking and then complains about the cyclists.
That's low IQ
So true 🤣. Just enough rain to extinguish a cigarette. Not enough for a T-shirt contest.
I tried using my umbrella in Utrecht's rain, but 3 steps later the WIND did not approve and finally folded my umbrella back 😅
"Ive neer seen a country take such a fun activity in such a serious way!!" got me 🤣and how you imitate the the angry bell sound ...😅 - from Cape Town, South Africa.
its so true. I've heard that angry bell in A-dam.
the traditional bells do make a different sound depending how you turn them.
Watching Trevor evolve his comedy based on his travel is dope . Hope to catch him live one day cheers from Atlanta
Same here, I think I will Crack😂😂 already by greeting that everyone will think I'm crazy
I don't care who says what- you're the best comedian in the in the whole world that ever was
True!
Yebo
He's funny, but best in the world? Not even close. Next to Dave Chappelle, George Carlin, Bill Burr, Jimmy Carr, nah, not even close. Funny tho.
NPC
At least definitely in the top 5.
As soon as I saw that Trevor released a video, I couldn't help but click on it.
Trevor loves people. That's why he can tell great stories about each country.
Amsterdam is the only city in NL where the light turns green, it's your turn to cross, and you get screamed and cursed at because the bike had to stop for you.
that's rude, inconsiderate and also illegal I guess?
Only city in the NL where you may want to watch out when you have a green light 😂 Walking through red light is safer😂
@neutralname404 depends, sometimes the cars and bikes go together on green but in the city center often bikes and people of foot go together. But Amsterdam is mayhem, so don't look at the traffic lights but at the traffic period.
@@neutralname404 Yeah, but in Amsterdam cyclists are the law. Or they think they are
I’m even more terrible, as I step in front of a bicycle when I have right of way, just to make them hit me so they fall and get hurt. And then I’m not sorry and don’t help them. But even after decades of doing this, it doesn’t get any better; bicyclists are still as bad as back then.
When I’m on a bicycle, I’m bad as well. Then some stupid tourist crosses without looking up from their phone, and I hit them, and then I topple over and get hurt and damage my clothes. Nobody really ever learns anymore. Adults are failed children.
Well, I've once read an analysis of sounds in languages depending of the climate. They found differences due to suond waves travelling in warm and cold air! So Trevor is perfectly right!
11:24 had me exploding with laughter 😂
But it's weird that Sweden and finland have the same climate but very different way of speaking?
And Greenland and Alaska also have the same climate.
They also seeking different.
Maybe it's because it's a different contry all together. (^^,)
true
No comedian interprets the word better than Trevor! 🤞🏾🤣
I must Say, Your a Great Observer of different Cultures. You can hear a Nation Giggle at your Humor, Bravo. lol
So proud of you Trevor, the funniest and most intelligent comedian ever.❤❤❤...proudly fellow South African 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Trevor is the best!
Trevor, do you ever feel like no one is on your level? I swear, genius in truly seeing people and applying it to comedy. ❤
As an Américan exchange student in Amsterdam, I can attest re. the cyclists. And *I* became just like them (when in Rome!😅) Tourists would wander onto the bike path all the time. I would hit them, then scream̂ as I peddled away, "YOU'RE ON THE EFFIN' BIKE PATH!" 🤣
Thank you for upholding our values and traditions!
I am gathering up all my screams. So when I get to the Netherlands with a bicycle, I can scream the hell out 😂😂😂😂
“Yeah yeah yeh Papa!” 😂😂😂😂
Hilarious bit about euro-cycling
Omg!!!! The crazy cyclists had me in stitches. First time to Amsterdam I was run down by a bike! Couldn’t get over how aggressive the cyclists were, like they had some sort of invisible shield preventing them from getting hurt. Great way to be entertained at a cafe watching other tourists flew for their lives 😂😂😂
Oh wow, really, I feel so bad for you Klaudia. Carparking is most expensive of the world in Adam, everybody is forced to get a bike. But that is not an excuus for aggressive behaviour right. I dont know were the agression come from, even on holydays, Dutch are agressive, never happy, always something to complain about the food, bath, steps etc..... Anyways much love from a Dutch Suriname person from Adam.
@@lifestyleandbodybalanced4463 not hanging with the right people. My Dutch friends were 99% very happy and patient. Although you do not want to cross the line with the Dutch. that patience comes with a price ;)
The reason why Dutch people get angry on bikes is because tourists are walking on the bike lane all day without looking. Then add weed to Amsterdam and people stop paying attention even more. We use the bike as our only mode of transportation, a lot of people don’t own a car. You would also get angry if people kept stepping in front of your car too right? Next to that Dutch people are kind, sometimes just a little direct 😊
Great description 😂
@@younailedit Adam is een rommelig bouwput in vergelijking met Berlin, Parijs, London, New York enne Paramaribo 🙂. And how dare they cross the bikelane as if Dutch behaves excellent on holydays, thats way the Spain Major wants to ban Dutch tourist riiiight. Gaslighting or hypocrity or both?

My family spent two weeks in Europe when I was a teen. I had a lot of great food there, but in Amsterdam I had some fish soup that I am certain was the most delicious thing I have ever eaten in my life. I doubt I will ever have anything so good again.

Nope… I had high hopes.
@@hansdenotter7376 the numbers don't lie 😂
@@KagisoLebeko-l8xwhat numbers?
@@hansdenotter7376if he wasn't funny do you think many people would still be following his comedy? If you don't find Trevor Noah funny it doesn't necessarily mean he is not funny for some of us.
@@KagisoLebeko-l8xright, but show me the numbers…
Please understand in the Netherlands the bike is a normal transportation unit. It is as much fun or no fun than driving your car. You go from A to B for all kind of sort of appointments. And Dutch are on time and have their schedules. You cut off no car so you cut off no bike. You "read the area" for bikes all the time. Stay on the pedestrian areas. Simple.
Same in Denmark 😂
Same here and.... I'm Italian. Biking to work in winter in the icy fog at 57 is everything but fun.
In the words of Trevor " you can relax it's just a comedy show😮😂
@@firebear3867You’re missing the point here… Neither in the Netherlands nor in Denmark do we joke about tourists walking on our bike paths, them standing in the middle of the path or - and that is absolutely NO joke - tourists renting bikes to go around the town on. They have no clue about traffic rules, bike around in pedestrian zones, risk getting hit by cars or other cyclists and are generally a nuisance. (I’m Danish myself, but even I wouldn’t venture out on a bike in Copenhagen. Just like I wouldn’t drive a car in NY) 😂 We have absolutely zero patience when it comes to that - I imagine it’s a bit like taxi drivers in NY - we just want to go pick up our kids/go grocery shopping/go home. No time for that! 😂😂😂 Please, do come visit, but stay far away from the bikes and the bike lanes. The same goes for the electric scooters.
@@firebear3867 I am relaxed cause it's me who got my bike radar on ✌
That “yey yey yey yey” is so South African ngempela 😂
The problem is that stopping and getting started again is the most difficult, dangerous and exhausting part of biking. Because whe you stand still you have very little stability. So you have to get your feet of the ground to start pedalling, you start to fall over, and you have to make speed fast enough to be moving before you really fall over. That is why all bicycle riders hate stopping... Keep moving at all cost is the mantra of the bike rider... And Dutch bicycle riders are actually very good at that, because we have developed a very subtle language of small movements and even simple eye movements that tells us where the other goes, so that we do not need to stop... However if somebody stands in their way who does not understand that game, he or she will feel the wrath of the Dutchie...
Small torpedos waiting to be launched "Yeaah Papa!"
🤣😂
Oh my God. Someone finally gets me. Its the same in Germany! It' not clouds. Its just GREY, for weeks at a time. Everywhere else in the world, even Ireland, weather changes, reshapes, wind, forms. Yes, its like depression in the form of weather.

One thing about Trevor he'll make you pay for your own roast as a group 🤣🤣
A testament to his true genius is not only how he people things about themselves that they have never seen before, but then makes them laugh at it !
For your conformational in SA system needs with love from Becki Viner.
Thank you Brum.
I’m Dutch, I’m warm and kind, but don’t get in front of my bike 😊
Bicyclist here-you can brake but it's more muscle to power up again on a bike than it is with a car-just some ankle pressure there. As an explanation.
Dutch cyclist here: this is true, but many bikes also don't have the best brakes. We use bikes to go places, not for leisure and a lot of bikes have milage on them, have spend some time in the canal or have been misused in a bicycle parking lot.
I will not hit the brakes. For the tourists: Pretend you're in a city! The street is for cyclists and cars, not for pedestrians. The sidewalk is for pedestrians. The bicycle bell is not a cute macarena song. Its a warning. If you do not listen to the warning, be prepared to face the consequences. It's the same if you as a pedestrian decide to walk on a highway, you can expect to be hit. If this is hard or difficult for you to understand, or think this is a fun experiment, you will get hit. Amsterdam is the capital city of a country with 17 million inhabitants, its not your personal disneyland. If you don't intend to respect the local rules, you can expect the consequences.
The rain description sounds like Portland Oregon! LOL
i grew up in the Netherlands, and have lived in the USA for 50 years. I love the rain, I miss the rain, sunshine all the time gets so boring....
Even as a Dutchman, when I am in Amesterdam I have to remind myself Watch out for the cyclists. They are full blown anarchists. thinkking rules do no apply to them.
If that is really your experience, the only conclusion is that you yourself behave like an absolute selfish knobhead, because otherwise it's mostly just live and let live.
Why do I feel this guy could do the best Arnie Impression...Get to da choppa.😂
As a Canadian, we appreciate the gifts from the Dutch people. Thank you.
As a Dutch person, I loved my trip to Canada last year. Beautiful country and such kind people!
Bro said 'yoi yoi yoi yoi yoi yoi'😂😂
Yes, this was exactly what I experienced and felt when I visited Amsterdam, the cyclists didn’t stop when the traffic lights were in pedestrians’ favour, and you had to give way to them. They were really crazy 🤪
When I went to the Netherlands I realized on day two to just let the fietser have the right of way and everyone is happy. Still, less stressful than getting through traffic in Germany 😂
First time I've heard a comedian compliment the Dutch cuisine.
Mwoh, rijsttafel is fantastisch,(en ja, da's niet compleet Indonesisch) een goede stampot is geweldig op een gure dag & we maken mijns inziens zo'n beetje de beste koekjes, elk durp heeft een ander koekje. Met andere woorden, 't kon slechter.(kijkt naar IJslandse verrotte haai)
First time I've heard anyone but Dutch people compliment Dutch cuisine
We don't have traffic laws. We have rules of engagement.
The bicycle bit is awesome😂
😂😂😂 The Dutch weather. Never a dull moment.
As an Amstardam cyclist this is my take: you are to be out of the way. If you don't know traffic laws, read up or take a taxi.
using the brakes when you have no right to be in my way? are you serious? what makes you think i have time to look behind me to check if someone faster than me is currently overtaking me, then if it's all clear and safe to brake, look back in front and start braking? Your balls are 30 meters removed from your legs, dangling on my spatbord by the time i stand still if i use my brakes.
you're right, there's a human being in front of you. on a bike, just traveling. And you kamikaze your body in front of me, how does that make anyone but you the bad guy?
i hope you don't wonder how the train brakes work when you just wander onto the tracks without looking
loved the show btw good laughs liked the vid
Hilarious and spot on EY EY EY 😂 the bike part got me 😂😂
_"It rains and then it leaves"_ Who is personifying the rain now😂😂😂
English is my third language. But i couldnt really feel that part. The reason being, we speak our first language while speaking English. 😂😂 so, for people who English isnt their first language, wont notice that part bcoz we understand it clearly.
part of the comedy i guess
I can't hear their laughters in the end, I guess they are not laughing anymore! 😂
I had the experience of being shouted at by cyclists in Amsterdam 😂
Some of the best acts I've heard so far. I laughed so much that I am in really bad stomach pain. 🤣🤣🤣
Hahaha, we Dutch are annoyed by anyone who does not pay attention stepping on the bike lane. And in busy areas this happens a lot so that is pretty annoying.
Stepping in front of a bike all of a sudden on a bikelane in the Netherlands
is like stepping in front of a car on a highway in any other country.
just don't step on them and we can all be friends.😎
proxemics, sociology, imperialisms through language, all-in-one, beautiful skit.
8:04 what an absolutely legendary observation. Trevor is a sage, but packaged as a comedian
Was in Amsterdam over 30 years ago... I see that the attitude of the dutch cyclist hasn't changed! It strikes me how such generally relaxed and friendly people become so aggressive on 2 wheels 😀
like americans on four
I love sauerkraut, though… 😅
Ich auch.
Me too, but it is definitely an acquired taste
Nazi
And German bread is an art form.
Zuurkool (stamppot) in Dutch. My favorite food.
14:38 “just hit the brakes”
Yet another petrolhead’s comment.
Imagine you need to hit a brake in you SUV, stop completely, turn engine off, step out of the car, lock it, and then unlock-start engine-drive off.
Hitting brakes, then accelerating from standstill is not the same in car and on a bicycle
I just adore your laugh Trevor; it makes me happy.
I am from Germany amd laughed my a.. off! 🤣 This is a very interesting, comprehensible theory though.
👏
I’ve never been more afraid of driving anywhere in the world - and I’ve lived in Russia, Kazakhstan, and Armenia - than in The Hague and Amsterdam. The rules with cyclists are:
1. The cyclist is always right.
2. If the cyclist is wrong, refer to Rule #1.
Weirdly enough, the Netherlands has been voted the best country to drive for 9 years or something. You just have to expect & respect other road users.(Not Just Bikes)
Yes but I call it bike terrorists (and I am Dutch). Amsterdam seems to be worst. If you live outside of Amsterdam it seems a little bit better.
@@LeafHuntress I’m sure it’s true. I’m totally fine with deferring to bikes but it takes some practice (especially the bike lanes when you’re turning right and they’re not stopping).
@@markovelikonja5399 Perhaps it helps to learn the rules of the road of the country you wish to drive in, before you're going to drive there?
In the case of a road which goes straight & you in your car wish to turn right, EVERYONE, including pedestrians, has right of way before you.
In Dutch it's;"rechtdoor gaat voor" straigth on through goes first, irregardless of which form of mobility you're using.
@@markovelikonja5399 They dont have to stop when you turn right lol see them as people that are walking they wouldnt have to stop either if the light is also green for them, in Dutch traffic having patience is a must.
This killed me. Dutchies on their bike don’t play! It’s not fun, it’s transportation 😂 Great impersonation. Loved your Scandanavian accent 🤭
I was working at Sea and a German Captain stated: God protect us from storm and Wind and Germans who are abroad 😢
My survival kit for the winter with darkness and The Great Grey (Finland) is a bright light lamp and blackbird singing from the speakers.
Highly recommended! 😅❤
I'm envious of the blackbird recording. I miss "my" blackbird SO MUCH. He lived here for a few years and raised so many clutches. Sang all day every day and nested in the Camelia next to the front porch where l sit in the sun. He had even learned to eat the apples l put out for the Waxeyes /Tauhou (Māori for little stranger ) and would sit on the clothesline and feed pieces to his babies. Neighbour's bloody cat killed him last year and no-one has replaced him yet, l had hoped one of his offspring would move in but no luck. I certainly do miss his singing though. 😊
As a Dutch person i'm laughing my ass off at the bicycle part. But i guess its definatly something to get used to. By the way, its often safer for every road participant for a cycler to not slow down
