Hey, Connor! Greetings from 🇩🇪. To answer your question about the jumping fans: Yes, the construction is designed for exactly that. Many flexible elements are installed that vibrate and can compensate for the vibrations. It's not just a single large reinforced concrete block, but individual segments.🤘
Worth mentioning that construction regulations for stadiums in Europe became more stricter after Heysel disaster from 1985 at the European Cup final between Juventus and Liverpool.
At least the way i see it: Football is so important in Europe because it replaces War. Football took the Tribalism and Aggression and gave them a more enjoyable form than war, so basically where we Europeans would in the past have gone to war with our Neighbours for the sake of them being our Neighbours, now we scream at each other while our club smashes them in Football - or gets smashed. Especially in the Balkans, as that area s still quite... geopolitically "active".
the chat at 7:50 is "Avanti ragazzi di Buda" a song about the Hungarian revolution, the reason the video is blurred is because some people were doing Nazi salutes. Lazio ultras are far right
I like how genuine you are. Not too much editing to make mistakes disappear or to make youtube fame by being someone else. I like your attitude, interest to learn. I don't mean just this video, but in general. Continue please, this is therapy for me and many others around the world. Greetings from Finland.
Hi Connor. I have seen a video with fans jumping and a close up of the upper stall of the stadium which especially designed to withstand the pressure. Amazing footage.
They do nowadays. They've gotten much better at it since the 1980s. There are still collapses, but since civil engineers have gotten a better understanding of eigenfrequencies there haven't been any really major incidents.
4:38 Number of sports has nothing to do with fans, if stadium is decently filled then there is enough interest and fans for creating good atmosphere. In Europe various other sports are very popular, in number of European countries basketball is on par with football, hockey is big in some, handball, waterpolo, volleyball. Of course football is by far most popular in most but you can find clips of similar support for various teams in various sports... You have a view of Europe that is largely based on England or UK but they are more similar to the US then to most European countries, especially countries of Southern and Eastern Europe.
Yeah. NZ has rugby (both union and league), cricket, basketball, netball, football/soccer (as we call it here), track & field events, cycling events. UFC/MMA types. WRC events. Plenty of room for all sports in any country.
What’s funny is that Basketball will soon be a much bigger and greater sport in the rest of the world because the fans and Ultras is what will make the clubs grow. Add to this that the US teams is selling out to China. The us will be left with Baseball which is boring AF😴
The stadiums are usually designed to withstand all the jumping up and down but collapses are not unheard of. Doesn't happen very often nowadays though.
The next step is to convert all the energy that the fans jump into the stadium into electrical energy. There are dance floors that can do that so why not a stadium.
If war ever came to Europe the enemy would get into big problems. Imagine if all football matches had to be canceled until the war is over. European football fans would just quickly deal with the war so that they can see the next football game. As it is scheduled... :)
PROUD PAOK FAN HERE! ✋I have been to multiple games like this, the atmosphere is just insane, the adrenaline is pumping through your veins, you scream at the top of your lungs and thousands of people become one. Our stadium (Toumba=tomb) is notorious for its fans, we are quite intimidating for the opponents. Most of them are really anxious when they have to play here. 🤪
US doesn't have the passion. In Europe you support your club, doesn't matter in which sport. If you are a club member then for every sport the club participates. That would never happen in US.
You have to understand that football is much more than a sport. The political, economic and social context all play a role in the fanaticism. The supporters of SS Lazio (blurred video) are extreme right. There are also communist clubs. You can imagine the security measures that have to be taken when certain teams play against each other.
the 1944 banner was put on cause the game was played on or close to memorial day. we in europe dont forget that time. the stadiums most likely dont fall down from the jumping cause the stadions are build to withstand that ( like it is earthquake safe) and the fires are flares, syberia and serbia 2 regions in europe but thousands of miles apart the chants start when the fans go to the stadium in public transport and stop when they get out of public transport when they are at their home destination
The stadiums are built in a way to withstand the stress of bouncing by "bouncing along". The individual elements are not connected. You can see this very well in a Eintracht Frankfurt stadium video. th-cam.com/video/D-sGh2qzRHE/w-d-xo.html :)
Of course they calculate the loads of people jumping up and down, otherwise we'd have a major disaster every week. That being said, the crowd will never jump up and down completely simultaneously.
The bit that you were trying to hear from the Leeds United clip: Marching On Together! We're gonna see you win We are so proud, We shout it out loud we love you Leeds! Leeds! Leeds!
Hi Connor, About the fire. Those are torches and/or smokes that are usually used by skippers/sailors or ski/mountains hikers for emergencies. That's the reason why it's quite easy to find and buy. Cheers from France btw, and nice videos thx !
USA has zero top sports hence why only Americans like it. You do realise more people partake in football (soccer to you) in the US than any other sport
I"m going to give some background with this and im going to use your video's on the troubles in northern ireland as segway. In those vids you saw how deep religious divides go in europe sometimes. We take those into our sports too, catholics wont support protestant teams and vice versa, like in scotland with celtic (catholic) and Rangers (protestant) teams in glasgow. But it often goes further back. Back in the days of city states, you had intense rivaleries between cities that are now in the same country. Fast forward to today and that old rivalery is still there. Clubs created by certain classes of people, rich man's clubs vs the work man's club etc. Thats where club identities come from here in europe.
6:20 I think it started earlier 80's in England. It was a kind of hooligan ritual. It was copy from Liverpool fans from 80's. But it's like a football dance if may say. 9:00 Normaly the Ultras are around minimum 2000 for big and midium Football Clubs. The stadiums in Europe, especially, are built on the basis of the vibration of the fans, they are built on anti-seismic foundations. 9:50 Legia Warsaw, Ultras made an appeal for people not to forget the atrocities of WW2, in which 160000 children were killed in the gas chambers. and as you see they did 1 minute of silence but the Legia Warsaw Ultras start chating words to not be forgoten the horror of WW2. 10:30 About the currpcion in UEFA asking them where the 35000€ fines went to.
Difficult in England and Wales to be in a crowd like 'most' of these, as it's all seater stadiums at the top levels these days and clubs take a dim view of flares. Germany has a few exceptions, with special standing areas today but it was like that in both countries when I used to go regularly in the seventies through to the early 2000's. German stadia back then usually seemed a little safer generally as when standing, we had a bit more room. Someone told me they use 'Aeronautical Technology' incoporated into the building of these new stadia to give strength and flexibility. Sounds plausible if true?
Flares are for atmosphere, fires are for rival club fan-attributes. They burn fan stuff taken from rival fans outside, trough the year. Hats, scarfs, shirts, anything worn in the wrong place, wrong time. It's like a extra middle finger, to your rivals. These attributes are always hung below, up front, for all to see getting burned. U€Fa Mafia.
Hi Conor, 🔥⚽🔥A typical American may never understand but everyone around the world can understand what this game of football can bring to your mind. it's beyond your imagination can ever reach, greetings from Europe, South America, Africa,Asia and Oceania 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 ⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥USA SHOULD PROMOTE THEIR SOCCER TEAM TO RECOGNISE IN SPORTS FIELD
In US football is called soccer and it is a game that is considered a way to commercial income and entertainment BUT THEN you came to Europe and things are based as it was to be First football is called football and fans of the opposite teams that have a match they march at the stadium prepare for war because a match between two teams it is exactly that a "War". I got to say as a Greek fan if you don't see a regular match day in Greece MYOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IT MEANS TO BRING FLARES AND SMOKE IN A FOOTBALL GAME.
The flares are banned from football in most countries but some people just do it anyway. Fights have started quite a few times and police has to step in.
Minute 13:37 - They are signaling smokes; those used by militars to signal a target or as emergency localization when you're lost and you want to be seen from far away... I think you translate it lie "smoke bomb" or something like that
Hey, if you really want to see madness in a stadium, you should watch " O ESPETACULAR DERBY DE CASABLANCA - WYDAD X RAJA " by the channel O Canto das Torcidas
Hi can you react we were revolutionaries inter milan fans by copa90( is a video about italian inter ultras during lockdown)and tell a bit of what ultras are and what they do Or Top 10 ultras italy by ultras avanti
20:00 and yeah that is a trend, to try to explain, further south you go in Europe people are more passionate more hot headed and that sort of thing, and further east you go people are harder, tougher and Balkans are in that spot, east and south and Balkan fans are probably the most insane ones. And those are poorer countries, with history of war and conflict, some ongoing, some in recent past that all affects society and what affects society affects the fans.
That thing you talking about having to many top sports Europe have all sports you have plus some more and we do still have this kind of atmosphere in nearly every sport that the club is playing Fotball of course have the best but they still have ultras in basketball, Handball , Hockey and sports like that
The French fans were repeating the same thing to each other from different sides of the stadium to intimidate the opposing team and fans. You should watch these videos with translations, it has a bigger impact when you understand what they are chanting. By the way, I love your reactions. They are so honest.
Uhm, no, they are usually build at surface level. It's just good construction engineering skills that allows stadiums to disperse the force they have to endure, they are built to withstand this force. Of course it includes regular maintenance and replacing parts that are getting too worn out over time, but they can withstand a damn lot before that is neccessary.
15:02 it's not a pirate thing, it a sign that some units of Yugoslav royalists resistance wore during WW2. Oh and about the fires, those are Bengal flares, they develop huge temperature, 1000 degrees celsius or 1832 degrees fahrenheit.
I'm acctually sad for the end of the cup, simply becuase after argentina won against my national team Croatia in semifinal , they exchanged jerseys with our team just to film themselves throwing them in trash later. That's hillbilly behaviour and very disrespectfull seeing how they were knocked out the group stage by us 4 years ago like actual trash lol, and we all just ignoring the way quatar been setting up this games lmao, never a bias so obvious than this year ( i dont belive my team couldve gotten gold but at some points you didn't know if we should cry, laugh or yell at the judges that were clearly bought out)... whispers : both messi and mbappe (france) play for PSG, a club privately owned by quatar... funny how that happens
hahahaha "realy cool exchanging with the rivals" ... dude, football is like war for us! During match day we dont have rival friends. Just for you to understand, our clubs are bigger then our countrys! Its like our famillys!
Those are tribal dances and chants, what you see. Europe was full of wars in the last thousands of years, countries or cities against each other battling all the time... The official hate ran out, but it still lives in the sport rivalry. And to answer your question, how can the fans bring the flares and those huge flags.... those are the ultras of each team having separated parts of each stadium, where they are allowed to bring the stuff.... The main sectors are heavily controlled, so you can bring your family to enjoy the game and still leave safelully after no problem...
Minute 4:36 - It's not that. We have the same things in our Basket and Volley matches. It's a different style and attitude twoards sport in generals Look for European Bastketball fans and you'll see that it's the same as footbal (you call it soccer)
Just thought I’d throw in our anthem/chant from Norwich City FC for a couple of reasons 1, we have a American international in our squad “Josh Sergeant” so playing the favouritism card as you are also American 😆 and 2, it’s actually the worlds oldest anthem/chant not having changed in about 120 years since we formed as a club it’s called “on the ball city” and has featured on shirts as o.t.b.c and is commonly used by supporters in comments or messages as a hype phrase as o.t.b.c th-cam.com/video/7bqg28FRrM4/w-d-xo.html
Connor, I have a special treat for you: th-cam.com/video/G3jVt3pr2X4/w-d-xo.html (you can skip the first 3:30min). Here is a video of an English football fan visiting a game in Dortmund, Germany. You see the build-up of the match in the town, the fans marching on foot from the city center to the stadium, the excitement before the game and the atmosphere in the stadium. What he sees is the game Dortmund vs Schalke in Sept.2022. It's a very special game: there is a VERY intense fan rivalry between these two clubs. But Schalke had been relegated to 2nd division for some time. So this is the first time in years that these two arch rivals actually meet. And they do so in the stadium with arguably the best fan atmosphere in Europe.
To the people it's going to mean more to? You're saying it wouldn't mean as much to the Brazilians or the French or the Germans or English or Dutch or Italians or ... Your reasoning behind that statement...?
You should be worried. Here is what you dont understand. Imagine that you are a government body and you see this sea of people under someone control, but not yours. Would you be scared? Think about that
I am in my SEVENTH decade of attending London matches but you MUST watch The Argentina Celebrations when millions turned out at 3.30 IN THE MORNING to welcome back Messi and The World Champions. They are amazing TH-cam videos showing the Argentine celebrations in Argentina and All Over The World:)
Soccer is a British word. We all used to call 'Association Football'' ''Socca Football'', to differentiate it from other competing games, like Rugby Football. Eventually the Brits dropped the ''Socca'' part, and the USA dropped the ''football'', but the fact remains that Soccer is a British word for football.
@@tainted3922 I'm 55 and English. We called it soccer at school when I was a kid in the 70s/80s, and nobody once thought of it as American. We had no idea they even played the game. There was no internet or American sport on TV. The myth that it is an American word is a fairly recent one.
@@tainted3922 Occasionally, but only if I need to differentiate football from American football. I don't say 'togger' either, or 'footie'', or any of the other of the schoolboy names we used for it, because I'm not 10 years old, and not being a fan of the sport, I rarely have occasion to mention it at all.

yeah same in netherlands. \de kuip does the same.
US have stadiums, Europe has arena's.
Qatar has graveyards
I don’t know if you were trying to emphasise our atmosphere by calling them arenas, but we have stadiums. Apologies if you were kidding
@@jmschrch I think he means with 'arena' that its a real gladiator vibe stadium. Of course it are stadiums
@@SlamTheBam then he’s absolutely right

Well Said,My Friend..
Hi Connor. I have seen a video with fans jumping and a close up of the upper stall of the stadium which especially designed to withstand the pressure. Amazing footage.
They do nowadays. They've gotten much better at it since the 1980s. There are still collapses, but since civil engineers have gotten a better understanding of eigenfrequencies there haven't been any really major incidents.
The World Cup takes place every four which makes it more iconic.
4:38 Number of sports has nothing to do with fans, if stadium is decently filled then there is enough interest and fans for creating good atmosphere.

Plenty of room for all sports in any country.
Usually those are emergency flares used on ships..
that's why they are so bright..
If you like the yellow/black jerseys, you need to take a look at the yellow wall of the Borussia Dortmund team in Germany. It's insane.
Who's "Marcel" Connor?Did you mean Marseille (pron Marsay)
This is pretty tame, watch Ultra our way of life.
We tend to smile when people in the U.S. use the term 'World Series', when only the U.S. and one team from Canada take part.
What’s funny is that Basketball will soon be a much bigger and greater sport in the rest of the world because the fans and Ultras is what will make the clubs grow. Add to this that the US teams is selling out to China.
The us will be left with Baseball which is boring AF😴
Galatasaray Istanbul in Turkey has the world record for the loudest stadium in the world. The fans over there are absolutely crazy
Its Beşiktaş , not Galatasaray
The stadiums are usually designed to withstand all the jumping up and down but collapses are not unheard of. Doesn't happen very often nowadays though.

Can a black person go there with the ultras or are they racist ( please be honest my friend is in Greece)
US doesn't have the passion. In Europe you support your club, doesn't matter in which sport. If you are a club member then for every sport the club participates.
That would never happen in US.
You have to understand that football is much more than a sport. The political, economic and social context all play a role in the fanaticism. The supporters of SS Lazio (blurred video) are extreme right. There are also communist clubs. You can imagine the security measures that have to be taken when certain teams play against each other.
the best joke about germany i´ve heard in a while. greetz from germany!
He did the same joke in a comparison of American football and european football fans...Funnily also when they showed Dynamo Dresden^^
the 1944 banner was put on cause the game was played on or close to memorial day. we in europe dont forget that time. the stadiums most likely dont fall down from the jumping cause the stadions are build to withstand that ( like it is earthquake safe) and the fires are flares, syberia and serbia 2 regions in europe but thousands of miles apart the chants start when the fans go to the stadium in public transport and stop when they get out of public transport when they are at their home destination
The stadiums are built in a way to withstand the stress of bouncing by "bouncing along". The individual elements are not connected. You can see this very well in a Eintracht Frankfurt stadium video.
th-cam.com/video/D-sGh2qzRHE/w-d-xo.html
:)
12:08 That song "Burning Down the House" is so cute to us Europeans when we are used to burning down the whole stadium ^^
Of course they calculate the loads of people jumping up and down, otherwise we'd have a major disaster every week. That being said, the crowd will never jump up and down completely simultaneously.
The stands aren't "bleachers" like in the States. They're reinforced concrete with suspension to allow for movement
very interesting "salute" by some of the Lazio fans.... 🙄
The bit that you were trying to hear from the Leeds United clip:
Marching On Together!
We're gonna see you win
We are so proud,
We shout it out loud we love you Leeds! Leeds! Leeds!
every club ultras has a leader that conducts the ultras in and out of the stadiums

About the fire. Those are torches and/or smokes that are usually used by skippers/sailors or ski/mountains hikers for emergencies. That's the reason why it's quite easy to find and buy.

12:37 just a regular Sunday with football match in Greece, we have smoke flares and fire
@12:20 that fireworks is before the match. YUou can see the players lined up in the middle. They will just wait till it's gone.
It is so funny how many football chants took their tune from Pippi Longstockings
This was great! Such joy and madness. Bengal fires are VERY illegal in sweden.

@10:00 that's not a movie. But they remember the fact, that thousands of kids were murdered by theGermans in ww2
Even the smallest stadium in Europe is louder than the supposedly loudest stadium in the US!
Yeah, I was in the video. I'm attending every game that AIK (Stockholm, Sweden) plays, and have been since 1995.

Every time when is game it is like this. Dont go out of the house. 😬

As a lifelong Celtic fan , our best chant is the 67 Lisbon song ....like your content and go Seahawks 😝
What are all these American TOP SPORTS. NO Country has more than ENGLAND .
No problems to get big flags inside.
There are no regulations against flags.

No Pyro no party.. Du musst vor der Tür warten 😂✌️🦅
This is what homefield advantage means in Europe.
Football is religion!
I've got Come and See on DVD. Brutal film
hahahaha "realy cool exchanging with the rivals" ... dude, football is like war for us! During match day we dont have rival friends.
Just for you to understand, our clubs are bigger then our countrys! Its like our famillys!
Connor, I’m planning a US road trip for the 2026 World Cup. Do you plan on attending any games?
This is our religion
Those are tribal dances and chants, what you see. Europe was full of wars in the last thousands of years, countries or cities against each other battling all the time... The official hate ran out, but it still lives in the sport rivalry. And to answer your question, how can the fans bring the flares and those huge flags.... those are the ultras of each team having separated parts of each stadium, where they are allowed to bring the stuff.... The main sectors are heavily controlled, so you can bring your family to enjoy the game and still leave safelully after no problem...
And forza Roma ❤️💛
There's a version of this with English subtitles.
Minute 4:36 - It's not that. We have the same things in our Basket and Volley matches. It's a different style and attitude twoards sport in generals
Look for European Bastketball fans and you'll see that it's the same as footbal (you call it soccer)
Just thought I’d throw in our anthem/chant from Norwich City FC for a couple of reasons 1, we have a American international in our squad “Josh Sergeant” so playing the favouritism card as you are also American 😆 and 2, it’s actually the worlds oldest anthem/chant not having changed in about 120 years since we formed as a club it’s called “on the ball city” and has featured on shirts as o.t.b.c and is commonly used by supporters in comments or messages as a hype phrase as o.t.b.c

Also forgot to mention we have one of the owners is American “also owns the brewers in baseball” and we partner with tamper bay fc 🤦♂️
Rangers v celtic pure hatred
Connor, I have a special treat for you:

Here is a video of an English football fan visiting a game in Dortmund, Germany.
You see the build-up of the match in the town, the fans marching on foot from the city center to the stadium, the excitement before the game and the atmosphere in the stadium.
What he sees is the game Dortmund vs Schalke in Sept.2022.
It's a very special game: there is a VERY intense fan rivalry between these two clubs. But Schalke had been relegated to 2nd division for some time. So this is the first time in years that these two arch rivals actually meet. And they do so in the stadium with arguably the best fan atmosphere in Europe.
What Topsport's did America have??? Football?? Baseball?? 😅😅😅
those are flares!! and bombs
wining little people? Wow, we are wining little people Europeans😂 It IS football, for 150 years. We actually ONLY use feet
It’s an awesome sight
To the people it's going to mean more to?
You're saying it wouldn't mean as much to the Brazilians or the French or the Germans or English or Dutch or Italians or ...
Your reasoning behind that statement...?
You should be worried. Here is what you dont understand. Imagine that you are a government body and you see this sea of people under someone control, but not yours. Would you be scared? Think about that
well brother they are not songs they are hymns and some are over a hundred years old
I am in my SEVENTH decade of attending London matches but you MUST watch The Argentina Celebrations when millions turned out at 3.30 IN THE MORNING to welcome back Messi and The World Champions. They are amazing TH-cam videos showing the Argentine celebrations in Argentina and All Over The World:)
i see that and imagine Justinian seeing the same shit at the beginning of Nika uprising
Tbh , any Italian ultra performance tops anything else in Europe 😐
Road flares
Not marsel.........marsay............pronunciation...........be well .........
GLASGO,GLASGO For F+++s sake not GlassgoWWWW.
You should make a search on why you call this soccer or even better why you call football to a sport that is mostly played with the hands?!!?!?!?
It's a few pyros m8. You guys carry guns,ffs.
In this case Celtic is actually pronounced with a S, like this: Seltik
1944 powstanie warszawskie
the polish fans you must See
Lazio is extremely right wing.
The video is actually blurred because several fans do the Nazi salute.
Soccer is a British word. We all used to call 'Association Football'' ''Socca Football'', to differentiate it from other competing games, like Rugby Football.
Eventually the Brits dropped the ''Socca'' part, and the USA dropped the ''football'', but the fact remains that Soccer is a British word for football.
It might come from the uk but only north americans use it these days. It's an American/Canadian word now.
@@tainted3922 I'm 55 and English. We called it soccer at school when I was a kid in the 70s/80s, and nobody once thought of it as American. We had no idea they even played the game. There was no internet or American sport on TV.
The myth that it is an American word is a fairly recent one.
@@emdiar6588 do you still call it soccer?
@@tainted3922 Occasionally, but only if I need to differentiate football from American football.
I don't say 'togger' either, or 'footie'', or any of the other of the schoolboy names we used for it, because I'm not 10 years old, and not being a fan of the sport, I rarely have occasion to mention it at all.
The best fans in the world, Red Star Belgrade 🔴⚪🔴⚪🔥
