when someone say good things about Germany and germans, they are telling the truth. when i was new here (about 32 years ago) i only saw the negative things in that, they are not friendly, sport activities are expensive and time consuming (like getting a license to fish and before you do you have to attend a class and to pass a license exam which defeat the purpose sometimes because by the time you pass your examination, the fishing season is over), even for salesgirls, they only not learn how to be a salesgirl they also specialize (salesgirl for bakery shops, flower shops, butcher etc.) or how expensive it is to get a driver's license etc. After awhile, i realize they do that because they want to be top in everything they do. That's why Made in Germany is known around the world. Germans should be proud of that.
In Germany, the fishing laws are strict, but that's a good thing, after all, because it's about living things! If you have a fishing rod with you that is for a certain type of fish that you're not allowed to catch in that time, you have to pay a fine. You don't want the animals to suffer a lot here, so you have to take a course and abide by the law.

Idk I'm German and I know quite a few racist people... I also feel like there is a huge anti-American sentiment, almost everyone I've spoken to hates American Politics and foreign policy, and some people have told me with full conviction that Americans are superficial and dumb (which is a super ignorant thing to believe of course) ...I almost feel like you're gonna face less stigma if you're a black American in Germany than if you were a white American. Cause I think all of these negative stereotypes aren't associated with black Americans as much. But idk, that's just my impressions and experiences, might not be representative of Germany as a whole
pss you can´t say that loud , or you are one of these "racist" people :D .it´s not ok to bring refugees back in they´re country after they raped or killed people here and the reason is "cause they could get killed in they´re country". left logic will ruin europe. @Long Schnozzed Tribesman
Andererseits ist es doch genau das: den deutschen geht es ja alle drum, ihr kleines Häusle gebaut zu kriegen (oder die Eigentumswohnung in der Stadt) deswegen sorgen wir uns überhaupt um Sachen wie Wohnraummangel, während derartige Gentrifizierung in den USA als Normalität akzeptiert wird, weil man ja, wenn man den American Dream lebt und groß denkt, sich nicht kleinlich drum beschwert, dass man sich die Miete kaum leisten kann. Also letztlich eben der Fokus erstmal darauf, die Grundbedürfnisse aller zu erfüllen, bevor man große Träume verwirklicht. Ich würde sagen, das ist die Essenz von "simple life". Die sicher auch in den USA von vielen Menschen wertgeschätzt wird, aber definitiv nicht gut gesellschaftlich und staatlich unterstützt.
Dude, I was born in the USA but my mother tongue is German. I went and lived in Germany for almost 30 years. You are so right on! I didnʻt know then that the USA is so hateful. And you express this in such a positive way. I love you. Really, I do. As a white American who spoke a dialect of German when I arrived there, I can really relate to you. Vielen, herzlichen Dank.
I'm sold. My husband has been hinting that he wants to move to Germany but I was skeptical untill this video. Thanks Soo much. You answered every question that had.
if you do, join the american- german expat reddit and inform yourself upfront about every single detail. id take the language tests in the u.s., since language classes are super expensive here.
Compared to US, one of the most important things is Health care. Even if you don't have a job and are poor, you get almost the same health care and you don't have to pay. This piece of mind is really important
@Princess Trump And they all rely on America's military to defend them. Americas healthcare would probably be free too, if we practically had no military and didnt provide security for other countries.
Dude this places where people were tortured to death in public are part of a history which is hundrets of jears ago,. The last public execution took place in 1864. The nazi crimes of holocaust happend behind close doors and not public.
as a German this actually makes me appreciate my country more again. We do have our problems and lately they seem to pile on, but actually we're pretty lucky to be here ^^ and cheers to you for going to university! it's definitely worth it :D
There's a lot of whining all around Europe, especially from people with political agendas. Fact is, we have some of the highest living standards in the world. I've met some people who fled their countries to come to mine (Greece) in the middle of our crisis and they couldn't believe their luck because bombs weren't going off over their heads. Europeans should be looking to further improve the lives of all our people of course but we also should bear in mind just how good we have it.
In America it's like $ 20 000 to $ 50 000 while in Germany it's free or at a low cost. I don't wanna go to College but still Edit: I meant $ 20 000-50 000 a year btw
As a German I have to say thank you! I guess it’s in our nature to complain about everything and seek for perfection. People like you help us to value our wealth and our ”after all not that bad country“.
Of course, the flu is better than the plague. Still i'd prefer not to be sick. I think it's just a lack of imagination and courage that leads to accepting our horrific imperfections. I don't want to ignore the good things. But there's a hell of a long road to walk before we can enjoy our riches. For now almost all of it is built on the tears and blood of people and beings far far away, or hidden behind curtains. Let's keep our eyes open!
Waldzwölfe Exactly right. Germany has destroyed itself in service to the third world for fear of maybe some subhuman somewhere in some third-world shit hole might say Germans are racist. And all of this is the fault of that fat, dumb, ugly woman running Germany. How the fuck did she even get into that position?
I‘m German and I spent my entire life in Germany, and actually I was never that much into beer, but when I did my exchange semester last year, I realised how good German beer is in comparison and now I really value it.
I have been moving this year from Germany to the US for my company. And honestly once I am back I will never say anything against paying taxes. We can be so glad about our social system. Greetings to Unser Kommentar bereich bitches. And yes American beer is shit
@@bneshel1514 I found some nice local breweries here at my area. But when I buy beer at a liquor store, I only choose becks, Franziskaner and even sometimes a Corona 😜
My great grandfather's from Germany. It wasn't it's best hr so he split. I've always been proud to be a American but lately it seems to be losing its values placed upon its forefathers. The trash in the streets the straight disrespect for the law the media making situations worse. The big thing is Corruption. It seems Germans try hard to make a good image for there country and stands for a nation. Here in the states it seem alot of people more stand as a individual then a nation. It's not to see how to better as a whole but only to better as a individual. Americas Constitution is a amazing thing but people try to bend and break it again only to help them self as a individual. We have are problems but the best way to over come it is to come together. We need to better as a whole not as a individual a group or a race but as a whole.

It feels so good how you, as an American, appreciate Germany. We germans are far too humble to be proud of ourselves, but it gives us great joy to see others love our culture and country! Seeing you being happy makes us very happy...and secretly proud
perfectly said. I came here to say the same thing but couldn't put it that well ;) I am German and I love watching your videos, Chris, because they make me feel so happy and grateful. It's so great that you like it here, you are welcome to stay as long as you like! Just feel at home ;)
Only the leftists think they have to feel guilty about things they literally have nothing to do with. Please dont act as if you represented every German. All the Germans can be proud of their homeland, the events of 70 years ago dont change this. Noone should be "secretly proud", we should be openly proud.
I am a Romanian livin in Germany (not gypsy) I really like this Country..Very nice teachers,cleaned streets,good beer,good food.Danke Deutsche Mensch dass Sie haben meinem Leben gut gemacht :)

I reckon they've had it tough I like gypsies and the idea of travelling around but this is just my opinion. You gota do what you gota do to survive in this world.
I'm new here, moved from the states in Dec of 2019. I can't find fault in what you said. Not that I have had as much time to develop a reference point. I lived in a small rural community in VA. Now I'm in Hamburg and I feel just as safe if not safer than I did in the states. I love being here and have no desire to move back.
My older brother moved to hamburg ,Germany in 2018 , fast forward 2021 , he is telling I should move to Germany , the school is free the culture is so much different from the u.s , and I am planning to move in at the end of 2022 , I am currently saving money , I don't want to leave in the states anymore
An American acquaintance of mine once claimed this: "Everything that is promised in the American Dream, you can get in Germany" He was stationed here when he was in the military and misses this country dearly.
"Germany is in the *middle* of Europe, how convenient is that?" Pretty convenient, except if you want to start a world war or two. Just kidding, it's actually amazing! :)
Obviously you don't get jokes often. It's okay, relax, trust me that I do. There's no use in trying to prove my point anyway, right? I'd tell you anything and you would know better because ... internet.
I don't care for American bread at all. I love and miss our German Bauern Brot. I have to order mine online. Its expensive but I can't hack the American bread. If I have nothing else in my house, I will toast the American bread. That's the only way I can eat it. German bread is more salad and has a crispy crust. You eat a German sandwich, you know you ate. Not so with American bread. Its like fluff in my mouth, sticks to the top of my palest (Pallet?) Americans grew up with their kind of bread, that's why many don't like good ole German bread. I grew up with it, so its no wonder I miss it terrible when I can't get any. Plus I miss the Broetchen warm out the oven. OMG, my mouth is watering now.
When you buy something that’s from Germany you know 100% it was built correctly. I collect antiques and let me tell you if something says “Germany” I will definitely be buying it.
@@MrRoob10 That is stupid. The V2 was a secret and also never called V2 from the military. They know it as Aggregat 4. There would be no evidence during the war who was participating in what ever design of weapons. I have a civilian production Luger 08. Guess what was written on it about the manufacturer ? S 42 ... Or should they write on it : Yeah, this pistol has been made by the company Mauser situated in Oberndorf close to the river Neckar. Go drop some bombs on me . ?
The funny thing is that the "Made in Germany" designation was originally mandated to distinguish the lower quality goods from Germany from the high quality British production.
@J Sull cry about it. I am sure u have probably never had real german or even european beer. Only coz its writen on it , at the store u buy it, it means shit. 🤣 u dont even have the called "reinheitsgebot"🤷♂️🤷♂️

@J S I think visitors to the biggest beer festival on the planet may also disagree with you. Belgium beer is good mind you. What about German laws? the only country in the world to have no speed limits in certain areas is a good idea. Moron drivers that can't think for themselves will be a problem no matter what a sign post says. Also traffic is restricted to lower speeds in the wet and "quit times" by built up areas. Silly?

@@andreiplane8380 I spent a month in the USA. Food was disgusting. I don't doubt there can be nice specialities, I don't speak about special dishes but about common, everyday food. Also, the quality of products is horrible in the USA compared to the European Union (where there are a lof of regulations about food quality, for exemple meet with hormones is forbidden). I could even feel the big difference in quality products between MacDonald in the USA and MacDonald in Europe... However it's cheaper in the USA, but for a good reason.

I was stationed in Germany from 1983-1988 and since then I've been back to visit TWICE. I fell in love with Germany from the very first day I set foot there and will always be in love with it till the day I die
I lived and studied in Germany for a year, and I had a hard decision to make; come back to the States, or stay. I missed my family, so I came back to the States. If I had I could do it over again, I would have stayed in Germany.
The two best/most interesting and exciting years of my life were when I was stationed there 1985-1987. I really miss it and know soldiers I was stationed with who are still living there more than 30 years later. I live in the NY metropolitan area and, as much as I love living here, I sometimes wish I never left Germany. In fact, if I wasn't married with children, I'd probably go back.
@Anna Sichla Great message in that video but, as it often happens with social media, I think you misunderstood what I said in my post. I'll try not to do the same with your comment. "Stop blaming your family..." is judgmental and way off base here. I'm not blaming my family at all. While I meant what I said in my comment about missing the good old days, they are just that... the good old days. Times change, circumstances change. I *chose* to get married and have kids and am committed to my family. The life we have here keeps us here for a number of reasons. Walking away from what I committed to just to satisfy my occasional bouts of nostalgia, would be quitting in its highest form.
@@NJbakintheday just curious: where did you live, when you were in Germany? I've had some classmates in school whose fathers were originally British soldiers stationed in Germany who also decided to stay!

You forgot the Autobahn. In no country in the world can you legally drive cars the way their built to be driven by consistently and safely pushing them to top speeds.
German infrastructure sucks because we only build new streets and not care for the streets we already have. For a politician that makes much better PR.
Um yes and no. You couldn’t or wouldn’t try to drive an American imported car here at the speeds at the distances. They can’t handle it. Also not all of the autobahn has no speed limit. Just FYI.
John Zook american cars could handle your autobahn just fine, not that you would ever really get to test them with it being under construction all the time
I disagree. The statement is an exaggeration with no credibility at all. I just had high speed (up to 304 Km/h) runs yesterday multiple times on multiple stretches. The Autobahn is constantly being maintained somewhere and most of the time (and most of the distance) is NOT under construction. Regarding American cars handling autobahn. I wouldn't dare drive normal American cars at high speed. I know for a fact for example that the previous generation BMW X5 had a so called "high speed package" as one of its standard configuration elements on vehicles destined for the German market. This included larger and stiffer anti-roll bars...
I like how he noticed that you don’t always feel the pressure to buy material things there. Here I’ve always felt like I have to have certain things to measure up to everyone else because they have so much.
I have been living in Germany for 5 years now. I use to be a soldier and met a German woman and got married so I stayed here. Besides missing family every single thing about being in Germany will always be better than living in America. Simply driving I've only ever seen 4 police cars randomly driving around and that's in 5 years (excluding Polizei at the scene of a traffic accident). When I am near the Polizei I do not fear them as I do American police. Germans are a peaceful people. I have never even seen Germans fight only Americans fighting each other for some stupid reason or another. The year long indoor pools are really nice. The Biergarten is my absolute favorite place to eat so it sucks when it is not warm enough to be open. Germany as a whole has great food, but I personally think Bavaria has the best food on earth. Same as you said about going to the states again last time I went I had not been home for 2 years and everytime I left the house I was kind of afraid haha and of course the food messed my stomach up again. Only 1 thing I wish could change about Germany is warmer weather. Although now I have been I have to have me some Weinachtsmarkt and Glühwein!
I am portuguese and i've been around in Europe quite a bit and worked in Africa ( Angola and Mozambique) , been to the USA and Brazil . Germans are the best hosts and the most efficient in every thing they do.
Can't agree enough! We moved to Germany a few months ago and are loving documenting it. We haven't had a chance to partake in many of these incredible things yet but we already know Germany is a great place to live!

I think what you were trying to say in the end is that Germany takes accountability for their past atrocities as opposed to the United States which pretends that their past atrocities never happened, or was “inconvenient”.
As an American I would say that there are Americans who are aware of the different problems we have had as a nation but many are in denial that these problems ever existed. One of the huge problems we have in my country is the way we are so politically divided. This has been the case for decades for several different reasons. When conservative groups protest a policy that they disagree with they get a lot less opposition from others including law enforcement than progressives do.
Who denies atrocities that happened in America? I guess all the movies about slavery and segregation mean we’re trying to pretend those things did not happen?
Someone wrote here "that we Germans love to see videos about our selfs", but I have different reasons to write this here. Reason number one: I'm in a MMO and (hopefully) a social guy, but often get called Nazi by U.S. players only because I'm a german. I'm not organized in the K.K.K. or something like that, I'm far from a racist - they don't even know me. And that is a sad fact. Well we have a few racists also here, but it is hilarious if Germans get called Nazi still by default if racism exist also (sadly) in the U.S. and everywhere else. Reason number two: I dislike prestigious thinking. Get to know a person and than judge about what you really know. For the record... There where nice chatting with U.S. players to, but it happened very often to me. And you can grow allergic to such tendencies in behaviour till you point them out, in all respect.
Argus Argus!!!! The same happen to me. I live in Texas, still speak with a accent, lightly only. Often the call me little Nazi girl. The think its funny. Maybe to them, but not to me.
One of the BIG mistakes Germans make is to tell insulting people they are not racists. Stop playing their game. We are the most tolerant and giving people on earth, anti german atrocity WW2 propaganda is alive and well, demonizing us is a Hollywood specialty. I simply reply to someone who calls me Nazi, that that is a compliment and fuck off. The reaction id usually priceless.

One of my biggest regrets is wasting my time when I was stationed there. I was young and stupid and blew all my money partying, I could have travelled and done so much other great stuff. I loved Germany, I need to go back some day.
The menu in America has changed. One thing about the menu in the US is that it has huge selection from all day breakfast menu to different coffees and frappe to salads and a whole lot of other things. When it comes to the quality I got to give to Europe. I’m in England now and I love the quality here so I can only imagine Germany.

Education : Finland, as far as I know, actually pays you a small amount per month to attend university; it was about €400 per month, a few years ago (any suomalaisia,(or is it "et " ending?) please correct this) , but they do, now, limit the number of degree disciplines, so that they don't pay forever, and can free-up a place for another student..

That's interesting. I may be wrong. But I bet Soldier of Life has minimum knowledge of Africa or much more knowledgeable about America than Africa. So how accurate is it to label him African? Also Africa is a continent with many different countries. Does an Egyptian want to be called African? Moroccan? Syrian? And how do you know that he's from Africa? There are Indians with skin color darker than his. Then doesn't even account for what other genes influence his heritage from each ancestor of his. So educate yourself before you embarrass yourself.
WTF is african american german? Is like saying italian american german or latino american german. Absolutely doesn't sound right. Once he fully transitions into german soceity, he becomes afro german/black german.

Thanks mate, you’re doing a lot to promote European way of life... when we say those things to Americans they think we lie ! Hopefully, they will believe you.
@Waldzwölfe I'd rather be called a slave than someone turning people in dire need away for whatever reason. I wish they'd do it right though... Can't just put camps here and there and shout 'assimilate, adapt, comply' at a bunch of people and expect results :-) that's not the European way at all! Where's that 'sponsor a refugee' program? We have those for everything else...
@Waldzwölfe yeah, generalization will help you in no conversation, ever. Being rude to others also doesn't help. You seem to be the angry part, not them. Anyhow, talk in a normal, non derogatory way, and we can discuss, in this form I will not speak to you.
@Waldzwölfe I have noticed it. I have noticed people in need. In need of a lot of things. Hate and rejection is not one of them. And the people you are talking about are actual criminals and well known for the most part. Those might be handled in a wrong way. Granted. But the majority of the refugees are decent people out of luck. We have more than enough luck to spare you know. Stop being so greedy and grow a conscience. How can you enjoy all your luxury knowing there's people suffering everywhere. It's time for heads to be pulled out of our owns behinds. If a healthy state like Germany would turn refugees Away, what is our wealth worth? Nothing.
@@notjustforme you are absolutly right, but du you think they would do the same thing for you if it was the other way around ? Most of them just want a better life, but germany aint got so much space to fit the whole world in it.
Lived in Germany for 4 years from 1988-1992(I was there for reunification) while in the USAF. Got sent back to the States as Operation Desert Storm was winding down and never made it back. All these YT video's shows it's totally different there now from when I was there.
I've been living in Germany for 6 years and you can't pay me to move back to the states. Whenever my family or friends in the states ask me why I live here, I pretty much tell them the same things you said. I'm from the inner city of Chicago, and trust me my upbringing was like growing up in a warzone. Being in Germany gave me a new found appreciation of life. It's easy going, peaceful, very diverse, beautiful women and always something to do. I'm prior service military as well, but instead of going to an actual University in Germany I chose to go to school on post (in order to get my G.I bill benefits). Whenever I hear my European friends complain about living here and want to move to the states so bad, I always remind them how good they have it here....Great video fam
@@timasunshine7989I can see why you'll be skeptical about moving to Germany. My situation was different since it was mandatory for me to move here because of my career. I got a chance to experience what it's like living here prior to making this my permanent home. I love to travel and honestly take trips somewhere I've never been in Europe monthly. Like he said in the video it's very peaceful here. It's crime that goes on here as well, but it microscopic compared to the U.S. I understand that the change like the decision that's upon you could be scary, but in my opinion it's an opportunity for a lifetime. If you don't like it here or get home sick you can always go back. I guess the decision was also easier for me since I'm single and don't have kids. My only regret is I don't speak the language, and not really interested in learning it since I work with Americans and all my European friends speak English. But I'm sure you'll make whatever decision is best for you at this point in your life! I wish you the best and if you can comeback to this comment and let me know which choice you made....Goodluck

I was an exchange student in USA eight years ago and still go back every year to visit the family and everytime I go back I see the points you mention in the video making my really love Germany more and more even tough we also have flaws. Its so great to here this as a German because we arent really a patriotic country, actually we critizise our country a lot but I also think going back and forth that we should be more proud.

Hey, great video. The Germans are great people. They don’t talk much but build great and amazing things. What an incredible people. Hence no.1 economy in Europe. Boy, you got a serious country there👍
Dee Mil you can’t say that in general In every country are people with different characteristics. Some people don’t talk that much but some do. Well it’s right we’re not saying “Hey sup what u doin today?” to strangers like in South America or Spain but that doesn’t mean we’re not talking much
@@dylcana4122 Well it's true that on average people are less communicative, the more south you go in Germany the less communicative they get. I personly never talk to strangers, but the main reason is that I'm usually busy thinking about something and when I get interrupted by someone asking me a question in the train or sth like that it might take a few seconds before I anwer HÄÄÄÄÄ? I think what he meant over all is that it's harder to get into a conversation with a German than with people from other countries.
After living LA for 20 years, I just got tired and looked for other possibiities. Australia was initially in my sights, but fate changed everything and ended up in Austria, been here now 30+ years, never going back. I have lived on 4 continents in 7 countries and on an island.

when someone say good things about Germany and germans, they are telling the truth. when i was new here (about 32 years ago) i only saw the negative things in that, they are not friendly, sport activities are expensive and time consuming (like getting a license to fish and before you do you have to attend a class and to pass a license exam which defeat the purpose sometimes because by the time you pass your examination, the fishing season is over), even for salesgirls, they only not learn how to be a salesgirl they also specialize (salesgirl for bakery shops, flower shops, butcher etc.) or how expensive it is to get a driver's license etc. After awhile, i realize they do that because they want to be top in everything they do. That's why Made in Germany is known around the world. Germans should be proud of that.
In Germany, the fishing laws are strict, but that's a good thing, after all, because it's about living things! If you have a fishing rod with you that is for a certain type of fish that you're not allowed to catch in that time, you have to pay a fine. You don't want the animals to suffer a lot here, so you have to take a course and abide by the law.
The fishing License should be mandatory in USA too do you see how they fuckin treat the fish???

Interesting point of view. I never saw it out of that perspective :) Greetings from northern germany.
You took the red pill :)
My experience many years ago was that most German people try very hard not to be "haters". Very accepting of other cultures.
Idk I'm German and I know quite a few racist people...
I also feel like there is a huge anti-American sentiment, almost everyone I've spoken to hates American Politics and foreign policy, and some people have told me with full conviction that Americans are superficial and dumb (which is a super ignorant thing to believe of course)
...I almost feel like you're gonna face less stigma if you're a black American in Germany than if you were a white American. Cause I think all of these negative stereotypes aren't associated with black Americans as much.
But idk, that's just my impressions and experiences, might not be representative of Germany as a whole
You know why ? I know why :D
pss you can´t say that loud , or you are one of these "racist" people :D .it´s not ok to bring refugees back in they´re country after they raped or killed people here and the reason is "cause they could get killed in they´re country". left logic will ruin europe. @Long Schnozzed Tribesman

Andererseits ist es doch genau das: den deutschen geht es ja alle drum, ihr kleines Häusle gebaut zu kriegen (oder die Eigentumswohnung in der Stadt) deswegen sorgen wir uns überhaupt um Sachen wie Wohnraummangel, während derartige Gentrifizierung in den USA als Normalität akzeptiert wird, weil man ja, wenn man den American Dream lebt und groß denkt, sich nicht kleinlich drum beschwert, dass man sich die Miete kaum leisten kann.
Also letztlich eben der Fokus erstmal darauf, die Grundbedürfnisse aller zu erfüllen, bevor man große Träume verwirklicht.
Ich würde sagen, das ist die Essenz von "simple life". Die sicher auch in den USA von vielen Menschen wertgeschätzt wird, aber definitiv nicht gut gesellschaftlich und staatlich unterstützt.

There's a lot of whining all around Europe, especially from people with political agendas. Fact is, we have some of the highest living standards in the world. I've met some people who fled their countries to come to mine (Greece) in the middle of our crisis and they couldn't believe their luck because bombs weren't going off over their heads.
Europeans should be looking to further improve the lives of all our people of course but we also should bear in mind just how good we have it.

As a German I have to say thank you! I guess it’s in our nature to complain about everything and seek for perfection. People like you help us to value our wealth and our ”after all not that bad country“.
Of course, the flu is better than the plague. Still i'd prefer not to be sick. I think it's just a lack of imagination and courage that leads to accepting our horrific imperfections. I don't want to ignore the good things. But there's a hell of a long road to walk before we can enjoy our riches.

My great grandfather's from Germany. It wasn't it's best hr so he split. I've always been proud to be a American but lately it seems to be losing its values placed upon its forefathers. The trash in the streets the straight disrespect for the law the media making situations worse. The big thing is Corruption. It seems Germans try hard to make a good image for there country and stands for a nation. Here in the states it seem alot of people more stand as a individual then a nation. It's not to see how to better as a whole but only to better as a individual. Americas Constitution is a amazing thing but people try to bend and break it again only to help them self as a individual. We have are problems but the best way to over come it is to come together. We need to better as a whole not as a individual a group or a race but as a whole.

The best cities in Germany are in my opinion Hanover, Munich, Cologne and Frankfurt upon Main. The best smaller town in Germany is Landshut, because it's very attractive to tourists around the world.

You forgot the Autobahn. In no country in the world can you legally drive cars the way their built to be driven by consistently and safely pushing them to top speeds.
You can in Thailand and emirate no one cares
German infrastructure sucks because we only build new streets and not care for the streets we already have. For a politician that makes much better PR.
Um yes and no. You couldn’t or wouldn’t try to drive an American imported car here at the speeds at the distances. They can’t handle it. Also not all of the autobahn has no speed limit. Just FYI.
John Zook american cars could handle your autobahn just fine, not that you would ever really get to test them with it being under construction all the time
I disagree. The statement is an exaggeration with no credibility at all. I just had high speed (up to 304 Km/h) runs yesterday multiple times on multiple stretches. The Autobahn is constantly being maintained somewhere and most of the time (and most of the distance) is NOT under construction.
Regarding American cars handling autobahn. I wouldn't dare drive normal American cars at high speed. I know for a fact for example that the previous generation BMW X5 had a so called "high speed package" as one of its standard configuration elements on vehicles destined for the German market. This included larger and stiffer anti-roll bars...
It's all about the quality of life. Family and friends, and then work. Wealth is useless.
I like how he noticed that you don’t always feel the pressure to buy material things there. Here I’ve always felt like I have to have certain things to measure up to everyone else because they have so much.
I have been living in Germany for 5 years now. I use to be a soldier and met a German woman and got married so I stayed here. Besides missing family every single thing about being in Germany will always be better than living in America. Simply driving I've only ever seen 4 police cars randomly driving around and that's in 5 years (excluding Polizei at the scene of a traffic accident). When I am near the Polizei I do not fear them as I do American police. Germans are a peaceful people. I have never even seen Germans fight only Americans fighting each other for some stupid reason or another. The year long indoor pools are really nice. The Biergarten is my absolute favorite place to eat so it sucks when it is not warm enough to be open. Germany as a whole has great food, but I personally think Bavaria has the best food on earth. Same as you said about going to the states again last time I went I had not been home for 2 years and everytime I left the house I was kind of afraid haha and of course the food messed my stomach up again. Only 1 thing I wish could change about Germany is warmer weather. Although now I have been I have to have me some Weinachtsmarkt and Glühwein!

Be very careful if you come to Canada and lump us in with Americans like that. We'll be polite about correcting you, but ho boy, you will have committed a serious cultural faux pas. Like, confusing the Scots and the English together levels of faux pas. (And definitely, _definitely_ don't make the mistake of lumping Quebec in with the rest of Canada. They are special snowflakes and like it that way.)
@@maaax1173 "The landscape is just amazing, whenever I see pictures of Canada I wanna move there"
There's definitely a lot of places like that but...I gotta say, the praries are really, _really_ flat. Like just...flat. To the horizon. Flat. It's terminally boring. The _rest_ though is pretty darn nice, it's true. XD (Do all Germans only visit the West Coast? Is it some sort of tradition or something?

I think what you were trying to say in the end is that Germany takes accountability for their past atrocities as opposed to the United States which pretends that their past atrocities never happened, or was “inconvenient”.
As an American I would say that there are Americans who are aware of the different problems we have had as a nation but many are in denial that these problems ever existed. One of the huge problems we have in my country is the way we are so politically divided. This has been the case for decades for several different reasons. When conservative groups protest a policy that they disagree with they get a lot less opposition from others including law enforcement than progressives do.
Who denies atrocities that happened in America? I guess all the movies about slavery and segregation mean we’re trying to pretend those things did not happen?
Someone wrote here "that we Germans love to see videos about our selfs", but I have different reasons to write this here.
Reason number one: I'm in a MMO and (hopefully) a social guy, but often get called Nazi by U.S. players only because I'm a german. I'm not organized in the K.K.K. or something like that, I'm far from a racist - they don't even know me. And that is a sad fact.
Well we have a few racists also here, but it is hilarious if Germans get called Nazi still by default if racism exist also (sadly) in the U.S. and everywhere else.
Reason number two: I dislike prestigious thinking.
Get to know a person and than judge about what you really know.
For the record... There where nice chatting with U.S. players to, but it happened very often to me.
And you can grow allergic to such tendencies in behaviour till you point them out, in all respect.
Argus Argus!!!! The same happen to me. I live in Texas, still speak with a accent, lightly only. Often the call me little Nazi girl. The think its funny. Maybe to them, but not to me.
One of the BIG mistakes Germans make is to tell insulting people they are not racists. Stop playing their game. We are the most tolerant and giving people on earth, anti german atrocity WW2 propaganda is alive and well, demonizing us is a Hollywood specialty. I simply reply to someone who calls me Nazi, that that is a compliment and fuck off. The reaction id usually priceless.

Funfact... : the quality-level of Dogfood in Germany is much higher than the quality-level of human food
Yeah, we really love our Dogs :D
first-hand experience? :P
Haha, kind of xD
No for real, e.g. the hygiene rules in dogfood companies are more strict
More strict, is what Deutschland means in french
just a rumor. in fact: Dogfood has a lot of chemical stuff in it like oil sometimes or even chemicals you can use to protect your car from frost, but you don't wanna eat it. Human food quality-level in Germany is fine IF you look for the right stuff to buy. As always: If you want it cheap, you'll most likely get low-quality stuff.

So, do you refer to yourself now as African American German?
That's interesting. I may be wrong. But I bet Soldier of Life has minimum knowledge of Africa or much more knowledgeable about America than Africa. So how accurate is it to label him African? Also Africa is a continent with many different countries. Does an Egyptian want to be called African? Moroccan? Syrian? And how do you know that he's from Africa? There are Indians with skin color darker than his. Then doesn't even account for what other genes influence his heritage from each ancestor of his. So educate yourself before you embarrass yourself.

@Adam Adams Yep and if u say something you'll get called guess what a RACIST
@Waldzwölfe I'd rather be called a slave than someone turning people in dire need away for whatever reason. I wish they'd do it right though... Can't just put camps here and there and shout 'assimilate, adapt, comply' at a bunch of people and expect results :-) that's not the European way at all! Where's that 'sponsor a refugee' program? We have those for everything else...
@Waldzwölfe yeah, generalization will help you in no conversation, ever. Being rude to others also doesn't help. You seem to be the angry part, not them. Anyhow, talk in a normal, non derogatory way, and we can discuss, in this form I will not speak to you.
@Waldzwölfe I have noticed it. I have noticed people in need. In need of a lot of things. Hate and rejection is not one of them. And the people you are talking about are actual criminals and well known for the most part. Those might be handled in a wrong way. Granted. But the majority of the refugees are decent people out of luck. We have more than enough luck to spare you know. Stop being so greedy and grow a conscience. How can you enjoy all your luxury knowing there's people suffering everywhere. It's time for heads to be pulled out of our owns behinds. If a healthy state like Germany would turn refugees Away, what is our wealth worth? Nothing.

Lived in Germany for 4 years from 1988-1992(I was there for reunification) while in the USAF. Got sent back to the States as Operation Desert Storm was winding down and never made it back. All these YT video's shows it's totally different there now from when I was there.
I've been living in Germany for 6 years and you can't pay me to move back to the states. Whenever my family or friends in the states ask me why I live here, I pretty much tell them the same things you said. I'm from the inner city of Chicago, and trust me my upbringing was like growing up in a warzone. Being in Germany gave me a new found appreciation of life. It's easy going, peaceful, very diverse, beautiful women and always something to do. I'm prior service military as well, but instead of going to an actual University in Germany I chose to go to school on post (in order to get my G.I bill benefits). Whenever I hear my European friends complain about living here and want to move to the states so bad, I always remind them how good they have it here....Great video fam
I have a job offer to move from the states to munich and I'm just so scare
@@timasunshine7989I can see why you'll be skeptical about moving to Germany. My situation was different since it was mandatory for me to move here because of my career. I got a chance to experience what it's like living here prior to making this my permanent home. I love to travel and honestly take trips somewhere I've never been in Europe monthly. Like he said in the video it's very peaceful here. It's crime that goes on here as well, but it microscopic compared to the U.S. I understand that the change like the decision that's upon you could be scary, but in my opinion it's an opportunity for a lifetime. If you don't like it here or get home sick you can always go back. I guess the decision was also easier for me since I'm single and don't have kids. My only regret is I don't speak the language, and not really interested in learning it since I work with Americans and all my European friends speak English. But I'm sure you'll make whatever decision is best for you at this point in your life! I wish you the best and if you can comeback to this comment and let me know which choice you made....Goodluck
