Rammstein wrote Mein Teil after one of the band members drew their attention to a newspaper story about Armin Meiwes aka The Rothenberg Cannibal. He had posted an advertisement on a cannibal cafe forum inviting a man aged between 18 and 30 to be slaughtered and eaten. After some men turned up and subsequently declined, a man named Brandes arrived and there's quite an horrific story attached to his visit. His teil was removed and he and Meiwes cooked it and tried to eat it but it was too tough so it was given to Meiwes' dog to eat. Branded was killed eventually and Meiwes went on to eat over 40 kgs of his flesh ( some may have been eaten by Meiwes' mother, played in the video by Christoph Schneider). As far as I'm aware, Meiwes is still in prison but was eligible for parole last year. The video, to me, shows the fractured parts of Meiwes' mind. Brutality, along with fragility, conflict, madness etc. The walk at the end suggests Meiwes' mother's attempt to keep her son under some sort of control. In the point of the Angel and the destruction of childhood innocence, Meiwes admitted during on of the trials that he'd fantasised from the age of eight about eating his classmates. To add to the whole gore factor, the whole Meiwes-Brandes interaction was video recorded and shown to the trial jury. As we sometimes say here in the UK, there's nowt as queer as folk!
As others have said: the song is about Armin Meiwes, the lonely cannibal, and his voluntary victim whom he found through an online forum. The whole story is just as disturbing as this video. Yes, there were two people eating "das Teil", porcelain and wine and candles were involved. The "Making Of" explains the different scenes and band members as representing parts (hehe) of a sick mind, mommy issues included. The Mother (played by the drummer) probably played a role in the perpetrators pathology, but she also keeps all the parts chained together and following society's rules. Armin's breakdown with this whole horrible culmination only happened after his mother's death.
She is Rammsteins drummer who is playing the part of armin meiwes mother. Apparently when they were coming up with ideas for the music video they noticed that Doomie looks an awful lot like the cannibals mother.
Ich wusste nicht, das du Deutsch sprichst! Cool! Ich komme auch von deiner Reaktion auf Dan Vasc. Rammstein ist nicht ganz meins, aber ich liebe deine Reaktionen! Grüsse aus Deutschland ❤😊
Live ein ,,Augenschmaus“🥴 Man brauche einen Koch, einen Keyboarder, einen Riesen Topf und zum Abrunden des ganzen einen ,,kleinen“ Flambierer“ 👍🏼Rammstein live ist einfach nur gigantisch!
Oh hell yes! My fav Rammstein video! Creepy as fuck with classic chunky Rammstein riffs! My only complaint is the music wasn’t loud enough. I had my headphones maxed out and it still wasn’t loud enough! Keep it going buddy! Loooooove my Rammstein!! 🤘🤘
@@VikingReactsWhere did I ask for it? I’ve checked your previous Rammstein reaction and could see my comment but not a request. Hey I’m not complaining! My fav Rammstein song is Führe mich so look forward to that one!
Fun fact the Angel is actually going down on him for real. The director Zoran Bihac is absolutely a madlad. When Till is getting slapped in the face its actually Zoran doing that FULL FORCE bc he thought that the Angel Lady just wasnt hitting him hard enough😂 He knocked one of Tills crowns loose 😂 The story itself is based on the case of Armin Meiwes who met up with, killed and ate Bernd Brandes. The wild thing is Brandes WANTED to be eaten, it was actually wild. There is a making of of this music video which is absolutely worth a watch😂 I watched a 2 hour interview with Meiwes and it was actually wild to hear him talk about his whole idea that through eating parts of Brandes they would kinda become one, or Brandes would become part of him. He also makes a joke about Hänsl and Gretl I think 🫣
Dein Deutsch ist super, Viking 👍🤩 And your English is very understandable for a non native tongue 👍😄 Waiting for Satur-Dan-Day and some Erik Grönwall, or Beast in Black 😁
Having been born in Germany helps ;). I’ve lived there the first 13 years of my life. I have the song picked for the next saturdanday… I’ll let it be a surprise though ;)
@@VikingReacts 13 Jahre Deutsch, da vergisst man nicht so schnell 👍😄 Ich habe von 2 - 5 in Portugal gelebt, habe fließend Portugiesisch gesprochen, und leider ist alles weg 😔 Vielen Dank für Deine super Reaktionen, Viking 👍🤘😄🤩
I love Rammstein I have many of there albums, although I have no idea what there saying never seen this video before but who cares there always awesome I love the video to Sonne one of my favourites but I love this song also. There are so many cool tunes by them.
Ja ik ben dan vasc fan, ,,maar heb ook wat met Rammstein 😁 Ik versta geen Duits, sommige woorden zijn net Nederlands.. denk ik . Mag ook wel meer Rammstein hoor 😃
That thin dude doing ballet,is the Keyboadist,Flake, and that isn't the weirdest thing he does for this song, when they preform it live, he stays in a massive Pot all song.
You should react to their Song Ramstein, im the music video Teil wears a jacket, that he sets on fire, while wearing it. Live he wears cool Flammenwherfer gauntlets.
I absolutely ❤ Rammstein! Bitte mehr davon! But if you are up to creepy stuff you should check out Marilyn Manson "Beautiful people"!😂 Beside that I bet that Blind Guardian would be a Band you could be really into!
My long ago heritage is 50% German, my understanding of the language is 15% at best.The music seems very angry, vengeful and possible evil? Possibly a loss in tranlation.

I wonder if during the filming of the scene in traffic if people thought "What the...oh, it's just Rammstein" then carried on with their day.

Armin also became a vegetarian i believe
Apparently so, yes.

sounds like he didn't enjoy his sausage

I’ll have to look that case up. I’m a true crime fan but don’t recall reading about that one. Thanks for the info. ;)
"Doomie" 😂 I adore how well doom has stuck hahaha

Und da hat man wieder was gelernt ;). Es ist schon eine Weile her das ich so richtig Deutsch gesprochen habe aber verlernen tut man es ja nicht.
Я всегда поражаюсь музыкальными клипами «Рамштайн», это просто нечто.

Armin Meiwes Fall.
The video and real-life event are like something from Tales of the Crypt TV show I very much enjoyed in my younger days.
Yep the opening is "Looking for a man, 18 to 30 years old, to be butchered. -The Master Butcher."
Very strange, not really my cup of tea… but thank you for expanding my view of a different genre. Another great reaction!
the guy at the end is the director. he is the real pervert. i like him.
you should watch the live version...

The live version is pretty awesome too
I love how you keep saying "who is she" and it's Schneider 😂
I also said that it is obviously one of the band members ;). I meant who is “she” supposed to be in the story?
@@VikingReacts in this story "she" represents the mother of a c@nnibal Armin Meiwes

Es passierte! Wie "Wiener Blut" auch.🤔🤷♂
Besser nicht darüber nachdenken Viking ;)
Hallo, hope you are feeling beter. ❤
🙏👍🤝🤝
Could you react to Infant Annihilator's song blasphemian?
skål med dig ..Og hej jeg må nyde det. ;)
Questa canzone parla di un fatto reala di cannibalismo successo in Germania

It´s not white washing, like in the USA, here.
Not for me. Thanks. 😮
The stageshow of this song is just as wild but totally different. There’s a good video of the Paris to be found on YT. Check it out!
