Kids don't try this at home , this man has trained for years and is a professional
Kids don't have to worry about closed doors... The little c++ts don't close them in the first place.
@@andysanger4606 aaargh too funny🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂
Kids don't try this at home....just find a house with an open door. You live there now.
yes, don't try to open doors simply walk through them
A man to his panicking wife in 1978: "Honey, please stop worrying about Finns, we have doors, they can't get inside."
The Finnish in 1979:
HAHAHA
HAHAHA
HAHAHA
HAHAHA
HAHAHA
This instruction was strongly disapproved by Finnish prison facilities, because after these instructions spread, they had to install locks on cell doors, which cost a fortune.

The man's sheer confidence is impressive, you can tell he's a veteran in the arts of door opening.
If it weren't an IKEA door things would be far more complex.
A PhD in Door-ology
I'm sure his confidence springs directly from his macho beard...
His name must be Price or something.
The overaverage door opening enjoyer.
I can't believe content like this is available for free. What an age we live in!
Really great times!
Absolute godsend
This changed my life after seeing it a few years ago. I was able to finally leave home, start a career and family. Thank you Finland.
"The door is approached calmly"
Words I never thought I'd hear in my life
Don't let it notice your fear!!!
Be careful of Rabid Doors! They've been known to close aggressively!
You should start playing DnD.
@@FantasKanal If he starts playing DnD, there's a lot more words he'll never hear in his life, such as "I do". Jk, God bless!
In more modern terms: don't pull aggro on the door xD
The more I learn about Finnish people the more I'm convinced that they exist in their own space-time continuum.
Or 'Finland', as its more commonly known
@@FuckFeminists thanks for the totally unnecessary “correction” genius
@John Orson r/woooosh
I apologize, but I had to do it.
@Black Man shut up
@@johnorson6907I suspect that was not a correction but him pointing out that Finland IS the "other space-time continuum"
I'm surprised to see no one has mentioned the respectable moustache this gentleman has. It's incredibly hard to focus on the video when there is someone with such a majestic moustache.
You can not open a door without such a moustache, the balance would be all wrong
Fortunately for me, I possess not only a moustache but a full beard, and I can attest that facial hair is indeed an important asset in the complicated process of door-opening.
Agreed. Vintage porn ready.
his mustache look like the door knocker to one of these large, fancy doors
Fair point well taken, This video is one of them that keeps on teaching, for instance, I no longer watch it without due respect to the forgotten `Tash` workers involved in the making of this invaluable PSA
Professional door opening should be in the olympics.
To all members of my family: Please note that he also CLOSES THE DOOR immediately. He does not stand there with the door open. He does not walk away and leave it open.
OMG, yessss!!!!!
Yeah, try explaining it to my cats sometime though.
Yes but HE IS an expert!!!
I can relate
Every Finn learns to close the door behind at the age of one - when they're introduced to sauna :)
In the man’s defense, he doesn’t just open the door. He also rolls on in.
Opening a door, with style
Plus, he's rocking that black tie.
I agree completely. This technique is so much more than it appears. We're not only learning how to defeat the obstacle of the door, but how to genuinely, "make an entrance." We learn that as we circumvent the solid wall and gain entry into the room or building, we can also demonstrate our absorbing personality by twirling into the room making every set of eyes take note of the compelling figure who has defeated the obstacle. Outstanding! I've been trying this for the last couple days and I've already won a couple of dates with fine-looking young ladies and been offered a few new jobs...and also a promotion from my current one. Try it out!
@@andyappleton3353 lmao thats great
@@andyappleton3353 lol very nice👌🏼
There is actually a benefit to this style of door opening. On cold/windy days, it would minimise the amount of air exchange between the warm interior and the cold exterior, so it actually is useful.
I would add that it is useful to sneak in at parties when one has arrived later than arranged. And... leaving earlier too!
In 1978, the ministry accidentally dubbed their original "how to open doors" video with the audio of "how to dive into a pool."
This video was aired with an apology to the thousands who suffered from broken necks.
A great example of classical Finnish humor:
- dry
- meta
- appears serious
- self-ironic
- an attempt to do a thing right, to avoid a possible embarassing situation, while in fact creating another, even more embarrassing situation (I'd say the majority of Finnish humor is one or another way based on embarrassment and especially second-hand embarrassment)
- you're still wondering if they were serious or joking
That explains why my Swedish friends don't notice finnish humour and think the finn is weird. The humour lost in translation. I my self is half dane and half Swede and notice finnish humor because it's simmular in Denmark. 😂😂😂
We Brits love dry humour too heehee
It’s not a joke, it’s a training video.
@@mikeb4535 or is it?!
yeah. i forgot just how much i loved their humour until I've stumbled upon this video. spurdo for the win
As a finn, we really do need instructions for everything. That's why we don't freeze, ever, because we haven't learned it yet.
Instructions unclear. Invaded Russia
Coolest joke ever

This was an incredible performance! So agile! Such smooth movement! I’m just in awe! That leg kick and spin was just….wow!!! I’m in tears!
I too was particularly impressed by that half turn/ twist as he went through. It's the way he makes it look easy that tells you he is a true master of doors, a door-sensei, if you will. I'm grateful to have his example inspire me. ❤❤❤
That swoop on the turnaround goes BOOM! He opened the hell out of that door. If my mind was even half that open..
Learning a skill like this could really open a lot of doors for you.
OMG, the best comment ever! Very much on point :)
Lmfao
Comments are the best part of yt.
🤣🤣😂🤣
If you don't pass the practical exam at the end they'll show you the door.
I feel sorry for those people who haven't seen this life changing video.
The youth of today are struggling with so many complexities. This video might help iron out a few wrinkles in their convoluted landscape laden with Karen Traps, OK Boomer misnomers and the stinging issue of the world being an easier place to live in than ever.
True. Imagine being stuck outside all your life because of a door. Sad.
Literally!!! I wake up with confidence knowing I can open doors with style and stealth 🙂

You should always knock before opening a door away from you to alert someone on the other side who may be just about to walk out or standing there.
I don't know if I can master the unique and precise footwork whilst pivoting around the door
For all the youngsters out there... life was tough before the discovery of opening doors in 1979.
They don't know how easy they got it nowadays. This vital info just available to them on the World Wide Web. Only the smartest among us used to be able to find workarounds for doors.

I just can't get that right leg forward and handle pushed down at the same time. This guy is a master.
He truly moves with pure elegance - what an absolute great role model
As an italian, approaching the door calmly has never been an option.
Lol

As another Italian, I can feel you there and solidly confirm your statement
Now you made me remember that video with Chris Pratt where that guy he talks to speaks in rapid incomprehensible Italian, Chris says "What" and shoots him.
I'm glad that it isn't only me that scares people when I open the doors but it is a cultural thing because I'm italian

What really intrigues me is: aren't there door-opening connoisseurs?
Well, I've opened quite a number of doors, if I say so myself.
This shot is riveting
I have owned a subscription to In’N’Out Aficionado for 35 years.
Well I have been practicing it for almost my entire life.
Nation wich is able to open door this way deserves to be the happiest nation in the world. What a skills, what a elegance. Astonishing.
Gordon doesn't need to hear all this, he's a highly trained professional!
Hard to imagine where we would all be today, if the Finnish did not make this video back in 1979. Probably all still stuck out in the cold!
damn I saw this at 444 thumbs up and came to say dont touch it...14 more thumbs up in a matter of 1 minute...the internet is wild...as is this video for ppl who just got MIB flashy thingied apparently
This educational video was a blessing and a life-saver to me. Just minutes ago, I was quickly hurrying to my living space after paying respects to my great grandfather Alfred Einstein when I ran into a door! A solid yet gorgeous mahogany door that very clearly was made by s true master craftsman with absolute passion. After spending about an hour admiring the work of art, I realized... I had no idea how to open the door! My breath was taken away after witnessing just how complicated and unearthly the contraption was! It truly felt like I was in Mars, as I was not sure how to activate it. After a few more minutes of preparing myself, I held my breath and tried opening it, but when I turned what I believe they call a "doorknob" and slowly pushed it open, I quickly slammed it shut, feeling the entire universe beginning to completely split in half. I searched for a few more hours on how to open a door when I came across this! I was so lucky that I did, and despite only knowing the Finnish words "kuka seia olvet", it was like I spoke this man's language perfectly, and once I performed the action exactly like how the good gentleman did, I made it inside without anyone dying or getting hurt! I truly am indebted to those who contributed to this film, and I am willing to save their lives when it comes to it.
Don’t forget he was kind enough to post it to TH-cam too
that's how they stopped the russians,simo and the boys just put a bunch of doors on the finnish-russian border
@@kvr22_ That was better than watching the whole damn video. I would watch one of you just reading. 😂

Not gonna lie, this is actually a pretty in-depth and accurate tutorial
"There is hardly anything easier than opening a door" Yeah, I get it, he is a door grandmaster, but no need rub it into our faces.
no shit! what i got from that is, "you must be a complete moron if you need this tutorial". :D
and i do.. need this tutorial
He wears the grandmaster door operator beard. Guild members may only wear this after receiving full grandmaster status.
He's a showoff, with his beard and precise movements...
*mumble*iamnotjealous*mumble*
Not a beard. That's a 'horseshoe' moustache.
We all start somewhere… he was once a beginner…
The precision, the confidence, the accuracy. He is truly a master of his craft.
I had no idea that I was doing this wrong for Decades! I might have got it right once or twice by accident when I was high or drunk...
His confidence is derived from his moustache.
He seems approachable, like you could have a beer with him
I think he's dead

At last I can exit my apartment. I have been stuck in here forever. Thank you Finland for releasing me from my captivity. You will forever have my eternal gratitude.
To be totally honest, I just went outside of my room to perform good opening of my door for the first time in my life. I feel proud of myself and ashamed at the same time, for I was opening my door in a wrong way all of these years!
I would be eternally gratefull for the ability to translate this video to my polish community, as I see it as great contribution I could make to my country.
The spin he does as he enters the door is honestly hilarious; now that’s how you enter a room with style!
It probably doesn't do much for the carpet or floor covering, over time, though.

I can't believe how many years I have been doing this wrong. I'm embarrassed to say I used to just open the door and walk through. Please don't laugh, I didn't know any better.
I know! ;-;
The embarassement must be excruciating
How embarrassing… we know now
Hahaha haha get laughed on
The burning you feel? It is shame.
Ive been stuck in my room for 14 years and finally with your help, ive managed to get out. I had a spare charger with me but it was rubbish. So now that I can touch some grass because of you is so heart-warming.
I think you are missing the point with your joke. That's why it's so important that these instructions are slow. It's not whether you can or not open doors, but how to do it safely, most efficiently, least chance of disturbing or hitting anyone on other side. the smoothest. Everyone can cook an egg but not the exactly same way.
So glad this tutorial exists, I have been trapped in my bedroom since it was built and haven't been able to get out.
I sent this to a friend and he wrote: “This has been holding me back my entire life, thank you so much. This will open so many doors for me.”
brilliant lmao
My friend just said "wtf is this shit"
thanks for the idea, sending it to the friends i dont have
Kind of a cheap joke tbh
@@joshuamcnab9605 nah we love a good pun
Me: "Is this serious, or is it a joke?"
Finnish Person: "There is no way to know this in Finland."
in mother Russia, door is kicked open.
in Finland, foot is kickable before door is opened.
Thanks you. Had the same question and it was really bothering me.
Judging from the beginning of the video I’m guessing it’s real since it teaches people who have been shocked and have probably lost a lot of their functions
😌
Now THAT is some of the finest door opening I have ever seen in my entire life! And to top it off he actually stepped through and closed it!! I was all like BOOM GOES THE DYNAMITE!!!
There will be time in the future where door were all automatic and we forgot how to turn the handle. This genius of a man is thinking one million years ahead!
People who like dry comedy seem to gravitate towards British comedy, but I've always found the Finns go a step further and leave that comedy in a woodshed for a good two years to properly season. This is a masterpiece, and it gets better with age.
was this really made for comedy tho? its finnish so i dont really doubt its real :P

This is actually good advice haha. If only for metaphorical doors. People who ignore all other opportunities and distractions, and instead focus on practicing one thing a thousand times... you should be afraid. Elon Musk/Micheal Jordan/etc...
you can clearly see he is a professional at door opening for many years. Maybe even decades. Impressive
I never realized how important the footwork is
Imagine in a far far future, where exists only automatic doors and someone finds a normal door and needs to follow this video.

@Star A Star That xenos scum put this impassible contraption here, didn’t they?!
Let's take a moment to appreciate how he was just supposed to teach how to open the door, but he went on as to teaching us how to close it as well.
He took that additional step. 👏
A true hero
He didn’t want to leave us hanging.
Closing is actually hard and truly needs instruction, judging by all the assholes I've experienced just "throwing" the door shut with a loud noise. The door to a study room with a sign on the door requesting being quiet. I wish this guy had shown it more clearly, his body was pretty much blocking the view to how he did it.
Absolute Madlad
Thanks, finally I was able to get out my room after 20 years.
The question is.. Was it worth it to leave?
This is so helpful. We need a complete series. What about
- lefthanders/footers
- doors opening to inside
- revolving doors
- elevator doors (pure evil and very dangerous !)
- handicaped people in wheelchairs or with crutches.
We need help and guidance !
“The method we learned just now should not be applied to opening any other kind of door or you’ll be left outside” 😂
High point of the video for me also. So much packed into this one line 😂
,,Well maybe you should know
Just how it feels

I'm still standing outside, waiting for a sequel that never came.
There are so many variations on this technique, but sticking to this as a baseline will help you gain confidence to tackle different varieties of doors in your journey through life.
I’m still stuck on on the sliding automatic doors. There’s no handle for me to confidently grab, and even if there was one I would have trouble reaching it in time while staying professional.
I’ve tried being quick and using a similar method to the classic Wild West saloon door style, but that on resulted in the doors on the ground, broken glass everywhere and everyone staring at me. Somewhere a baby was crying and in the distance I heard sirens.
and maybe u dont know if u need too push or pull... sometimes confidence need to fail and reopen the doors
@@Arakiven Maybe if you do it Darth Vader style?
My problem with this technique is that it's slightly outdated, I prefer the Double Wedgehammer myself
imagine door opening as a contest LOL
At first I was curiously hesitant, but after he mentioned the sheer amount of other techniques and possibilities, I'm now on the verge of giving up.
Finally. I've almost lost my faith to find a decent tutorial
As a Dane, I’m embarrassed on our behalf. It seems we’re still ages behind the incredible technological advances of our friends the Finn. I hope we’ll get here someday

I love the humorous tone of this instructional video. It makes learning how to open a door so much more enjoyable.
This is just an example of the Finnish type of humor.
It was most likely broadcasted in prime time on a Saturday evening.
If 1979 had instructional videos like this, then we really shouldn't wonder why 2022 looked the way it did...
Thank you for this video... I've been in the same room for 65 years and this showed me there's a whole world of things to see and experience outside of it.
As an Egyptian, applying this "door" technology could be a little bit tricky since we all live in small pyramids.
In this case, the "doors" will be inclined. Therefore I would kindly request our fellow Finnish scientists develop a different method on how to open "doors" that are suitable for our environment.
Thank you

Thank You for Your reply.

I like that he said "Basic Door opening", that means there is an Advanced Door opening. We mortals can't learn it.
Advanced door opening is for doors that open towards you.

I'd never imagine it's possible to get fast through the other room with sneaky body rotation. 👏
I don't know how this got into the algorithm but that was a smooth turn when he walked through like that.
And they did it all in Camera no computer generated imagery, he actually performed his own door opening, no stunt double was used, it's so impressive
He is at the top of his game on this one
@@wallywooyeah1 I can only aspire to be that good
He had high altitude training for 2 months prior this. Our national hero!
@@Eppu63
They should make a documentary on how he achieved this incredible performance
So brave
What an emotional roller coaster. That hurdle of the raised door jam, the spin, the hand switch from entry handle to exit handle...amazing. 10/10
It should be an Olympic sport!
Amazing! 8/8
That door jam looked SOOOO high
@@carolina11b Designed to trip the non-native Finnish!
I need to know what happens if he has an arm full of groceries. I've been on my porch for 10 days. The groceries ran out, but I bought more and now I'm stuck out here again.
If this video would have been made today from a TH-cam it would be titled:
"You've been doing it all wrong your whole life - how to open a door the right way!"
after searching for 5 years finally found a good video on this topic.
He makes it look so easy.
Years of training paid off.
Hell, the pros always do.
Im still learning how to use door
Yeah, but wait 'til you try it yourself!
As a Finn I can say It's actually damn hard. I've been in this room for my lifetime and I'm finally starting to understand how to get out
"The Door is approached calmly"
Oohhh that's what I've been doing wrong
Yea I sprint to my doors, I've been a fool
I approach every door I come across gripped by unrelenting terror
Harry Potter reference??
@@will9961 Never show fear. Doors can sense fear.
@@bobbell1922 Jim Morrison “There are things known and things unknown and in between are the doors.”
Honestly, it's pretty informative. The way I opened doors has always been standing with the center of gravity on both feet. Lean my entire body towards the door. Push with all my might just to buy enough time so I can quickly regain my balance, then squeeze through the door as fast as possible before it closes again. Never thought of using only a single foot before.
Sometimes the door closes before I get to go through, and I either have to open it again or get hit by the door from the side. For doors that don't close, I always end up banging the door on the wall. It's quite annoying.
I can't lie.. That was a smooth transition through that doorway. The guy is classy.
As a Finn, I have rarely been more proud than right now, having seen this video. We are leaps and bounds ahead of our rival Swedes in using this special space-age technology.
But obviously we've developed new, more efficient methods to this day. They're kept in secret from the foreign world so we maintain the advantage.
We’re very jealous here in The Netherlands
nyt tiedetään miten avata ovi
This is only town snobs. We still use windows for entering the log cabin in the rural areas
@@Lars._ Yep I visited Amsterdam once. Beautiful modern and old architecture but zero doors. Made me feel nostalgic of the times in Finland before 1979.
