Bertha Benz: The Journey That Changed Everything
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 มี.ค. 2019
- In a time when “car” was not even a word yet, and people relied on horses to pull their wagons, one woman challenged the status quo. To prove to the world that her husband’s invention was the future of mobility, Bertha Benz went on the first long-distance journey with an automobile, facing all kinds of challenges but stopping at nothing. The rest, as they say, is history.

This is how you make a commercial and a history lesson. Thanks Mercedes.
LOL no one in the 19th century was screaming about witches. "Horseless carriages" were around since the 18th century with the French Cugnot. Even the most backwards Junker Michael would know of them.
Mercedes teaching us all that the Germans were speaking english in Germany back then... great history lesson!
My bollocks sweated
this is a piece of garbage camouflaged as history
She was an amazing person and brave I think
"are you trying to poison your carriage horses"
'no I am the future’
Some girl:counts to 3
Me:IT SMELL LIKE WITCH IN HERE
Yes
I guess you guys aren't ready yet but your kids gonna love it....
she was not the future, the FIRST ELECTRIC CAR in history was the future 18 YEARS BEFORE THIS WOMAN AND HER TRAVELS, but JP Morgan and his damn oil engine CUT OFF THE FUTURE FOR 150 YEARS TO PROMOTE GASOLINE AND EVERYTHING THAT DAMN FOSSIL FUEL, everything else you saw is feminist and pro-English propaganda, curious thing that this lady was german and the commercial was all in english, didn't you notice that?
Thanks but why isn't she black? or at minimum an immigrant? or event at very least disabled and lgbtq2+xyz?
Little girl: *IS THAT EVEN AN AMG?*

She might be disappointed to see them now coz newer AMGs aren't gonna come with the V8 anymore 😒

She lived to be almost a hundred years old, she must have seen So much innovation and change, including the automobile industry going from nothing to being huge.
@R Λ M P Λ G Ξ T Ξ R M I N Λ T 0 R
The most important technological inventions in the last 500 years are the printing press, which led to knowledge and accelerated inovation, the precision lath which led to the invention of steam and combustion engines which led to mass production, automobiles. trains and aircraft. The camera, telegraph, telephone, lightbulb, phonograph, movie camera, refrigerator, radio, television, computer, internet and cellphones.
She saw her Carrige grow into a Panzer 4
@Pablo Gonzalez she was the one who paid for it. Karl Benz wouldn't achieve anything if it wasn't for his rich fiancee. She invested in his inventions and promoted them. So it's rightfully her carriage.
@R Λ M P Λ G Ξ T Ξ R M I N Λ T 0 R Electricity tops them all

For all those people who don't know history, everything presented in the video is true. Bertha Benz is a legend and the woman that gave Karl Benz his first sale. Respect! She was an engineer, a marketeer ,an investor and business partner.
She was incredible. 🥰
Yes .....she was ! I lived near Wiesloch for few years ,- visit the first gas station of the world !
no it's not! They've made up all this overdramatic nonsense about witches, hatred and spitting on the ground. Mercedes should be ashamed of this...whatever it is.
You won’t find girls like that nowadays. They just want your money, then they dump you. Hahha
Not all 😉
Lol a brand that was started as to be a working class car now only sells it to elites... What Bertha will think... 😂
As an automobile enthusiast, this is quite simply one of the greatest stories ever told.
😊⭐
NO, actually it's Mr. HONDA. I guarantee you, You will be crying! Listen to Tony Robbins 5 mins talk about it. Took Honda 40 years of fighting sheer demonic Evil!

Bertha Benz , the original Wonderwoman ...
Without Feminismus. Only a strong Woman.
@@@Z3RO-M07
No, with the true feminism, with the
feminism which is all about
equality between woman and man,
equality in a marriage based on
respect, loyalty, belief and love of
each other.
BERTHA Benz was a feminist ahead
of her time and she had far more
to deal with things keeping women
in a cage....starting with her father
who had choose a husband according
to his wishes...and Berta said NO....
The movie "Carl und Bertha" from 2011
shows their beginning and how Bertha
resisted the laws for daughters and wifes of their time....
Well said, Beate! 🙂

Exactly what I was thinking! Also quite like the fact that despite all the women drivers jokes the first person to actually drive a car was a woman. Such a powerful story!
There's a German film about this titled "Karl und Bertha"

Cecilie BERTHA Ringer BENZ was a bold German visionary long before the spoke of female empowerment. She changed the world as we know it.
Even as a minor, she asked her father to emancipate her so that she could take her dowry in advance and invest in the small business that her fiancé Carl Michel Vaillant Benz was starting there in Pforzheim. They later moved to Manheim, where they founded a metallurgist interprise, in which Carl created his prototype used for the patent application, granted in January 1886. For THREE years, through magazine advertisements, newspapers and exhibition fairs, he tried unsuccessfully to sell his product but nobody wanted it, it was thought that it was much more practical (and cheap) to use a horse than that "contraption". This led to the bankruptcy of the Benz family metallurgist, with the attachment of all machines and equipment for auction.
Only the small vehicle was left, even the bank didn't want it.
But Bertha believed in the invention of the desperate and desperate husband and secretly planned to help him.
In the early hours of August 5, 1888, with the help of his teenage sons, Eugen and Richard, she moved away from home and started the engine of Patent Wagen No. 3 (the first two were very fragile and unstable - no one had actually run satisfactorily with them) and undertook one of the most important journeys in the history of mankind. At that moment she just wanted to save her family. After sixty-six miles to her hometown of Pforzheim, she not only publicized her husband's upbringing, getting the first clients, but revolutionized the world:
She was the very FIRST PERSON to truly DRIVE a car - and not by meters (as Carl) but by HUNDREDS OF KILOMETERS;
It started the world auto industry (August 5, 1888 is the official birth for this feat);
Created Product Engineering, there is no car factory without it. His critical observations and emergency modifications throughout the journey, later passed on to Carl, made for a better product.
And saved the man she loved.

This was the first ad I've watched and didn't want it to end. Fantastic story, shooting and editing. Hilarious shot with the priest! Good job Mercedes!
mercedes liked this comment wonder why... mmm maybe because one point of the editing is showing that Christianity is holding technology back, which you have noticed, and made them happy
Not really, Charbel, it’s not a religious discussion, we’re just glad our fans like this video. 🙂
@@charbel5992 That is one theory, but it was not the case in my comment. The commercial was shot in Romania as far as I know and in some rural areas people are still using those outdoor bathrooms. It was unexpcted, that's why I said that it was hilarious. I don't see any religious connotation here.

What is even more cool is that her husband, Carl, being the engineer that he was, told her it wasn't yet ready to show the public.
So while he was asleep, Bertha took her children and the car out herself.
One could say she was also the first car thief :-)
But I admire her spunk and determination.

She passed away in 1944. That is so recent. She helped inventing the first ever car and probably also saw rockets flying in the 1940s. We achieved so much in one single lifetime! It truly amazes me what humans can achieve in such a short time.
So true....how amazing it would have been for her to see the world changing from horse carriages to flying planes...I wish she should have also witnessed the landing on the moon for the first time by any human....😃😃

I always skip ads, and rarely comment on TH-cam.
This...is something I had to watch to the end! 4 minutes is a record for someone like me, as I efficiently skip every single Google ad, all the time.
Then and I had to come here to watch it again and comment.
First I didn't know what kind of ad this was. A movie? But as soon as I saw the lady, it became very clear.
For how bad advertising and marketing have become these days, in some rare cases the message is wonderfully delivered in style.
I am personally fascinated by the story of Bertha, I have always admired the success of Mercedes cars, form an engineering point of view, and enjoyed their comfort for 40 years.
I must often mention Bertha, in those conversations with others, when talking about cars.
Some people don't know the whole story, and when talking about the history of cars, many have the bad habit of saying the "F" word (not f**k).
Advertising must continue as a process of branding, and in this case you had all the elements to make a successful ad, emotional and beautiful to watch, at least for my taste:
1) Quanlity
2) Historical facts
3) Original idea for a movie
Had you changed one single bit, I would have skipped. The movie was perfect. And that little girl, just another powerful element.
Finally you chose the right date to publish this movie, I suppose it was no coincidence.
What would we be riding today, if it wasn't for a woman?
Thank you Bertha!
Thank you for your very nice comment, PYNAPPOL, we do appreciate it!

Don't know why but this made me pretty emotional.
Her determination to achieve her goal no matter what others feel is pretty motivating.

They need to make a kit for her. Like a “S560B” for Bertha and design it especially for long road trips. A baby Maybach with a 800hp electric motor

Congratulations for all writers , actors and actresses, directores and team!!!
The hostility would make sense if there were no steam locomotives at the time. However I am glad her story is being told, and Mercedes Benz should name a car or something in her honour.
Yeah this hostility is soo forced. Also if im not wrong at that time ther already was a steam car. They were first to use combustion engine
+War never...
Correct, in the book she writes about how people were amazed her carriage was so small for being self powered, most carriages that were steam powered were huge.
So Bertha Benz is an actual person? Thought she was made up for the purpose of these videos.

Absolutely! A movie would be awesome! I hope they do 😃😃😃
But hope they don't only focus on her but also on Karl and his triumphs. Truth is both partners in that marriage where complementary to each other, needed each other to achieve success
@@leepalmer1210 The concept of why they pointed our her specifically is because she was a wife who supported her husband.
I understand the tidbit of just showing her, but there's too much of "independent women" going on now. Many women do not understand the true meaning of support.
In this case, supporting her husband.
Many feminists will hate this, because they are showing a wife who supports something her husband created, but it's a great message for many young girls to not be so mean and bitter towards men.
In short, it shows how strong women can really be when they share goals with their husbands.
This in my opinion has to be a message to young girls and women that it's OK to support men.
@@leepalmer1210 I'm sorry. Wasn't trying to steal the spotlight. I just really like Bertha and what she did for her husband. She was an amazing woman and a wonderful wife.
I just feel that her story would make a great message.
It's a clean slate that modern society needs.
There is. I can’t really remember the name but I do know that the actor that plays karl is ken duken. A little google search and you’ll find it.
It’s a really beautiful movie by the way. Hope you can find whit subtitles, cause it’s shot in German.
Unquestionably the finest advert ever made. Everyone involved deserves the highest praise
why i watched this video again and again , it 's just so powerful it has a story of a wonder woman .
This actually looks like a scene from a Hollywood movie based on the life of Bertha Benz. It's just perfect.
Yeah. The town characters are just too American movie-like. I wish they made a full movie with more true German-like attitudes.
The fear factor was a bit overstated, imho. In the 1880s there are steam engines and steam trains everywhere.
Awesome!!! Mercedes-Benz remains my best automobile brand.
Better show an advertisement about how Mercedes Benz helped Hitler conquer the world and carry out genocide of people, because it was their engines that powered tigers and other tanks! Show how prisoners of concentration camps were driven hungry to work at Mercedes Benz, how they were mocked! This advertising will be more interesting, after which no one will ever buy your deceitful equipment!
However this ended up in TH-cam I am thankful. This is exactly what I needed to see, being different and thinking different will always provoke ridicule from those that only think like the crowd!
It ended up on TH-cam, because we thought it was a nice way to celebrate Mrs. Bertha Benz in the Women's history month. But we are so glad that you like it. 😍
@@MercedesBenz I loved the little girl who was clearly inspired!
There are so many videos about Bertha Benz, this is masterpiece of them. Ive watched at least 20 times.
This brings goosebumps and tears at the same time
We share exactly the same feeling! 💖
Filmed in Sibiu, Transylvania, Romania
Really ?!.. Wow
@@SuperHinckley Sibiu 2019, looks the same as it did then, nice.
@@ExaltedGamingWorldWide with a bit of stage set-up and cgi backround yes, maybe... but the houses are still there.
@@ExaltedGamingWorldWide Why are full of hatred? every time you open your mouth shit comes out of it... poor people around you - filmed in Cașolț village, in Sibiu County

That is why I love Germany and German brands. Because they have their own humble beginnings. Either it is Adidas Or Puma, or Mercedes or BMW, they rose from the ash and reach to the top. Mercedes is brand I really wanted to own one day when I am self sufficient enough to buy it because Mercedes cars are history in itself.
what's a humble beginnings mean?
that’s true
because american and english cars have history but in currency like technical products are shit
asian brands have no history and no soul
@@oldschoolracinggames5729 Asian companies mostly just copy from Western companies. I hate asian products because everything is so poorly made.
VW rose from the ashes but just because the British wanted it that way. Let's not forget that Wolfsburg today is a product of the nazi regime.
Let's not forget that slave labour was a thing in the third reich from which these brands benefitted. Yes they said sorry but don't fuel the ignorance for other products. Other countries make good products as well, i.e. Volvo, Toyota, Land Rover.

The best commercial ever in the history of TV or internet. The responsible for this, is a genius....would deserve an OSCAR
It was underestimated in the past, is now becoming more and more popular
This..is a masterpiece that made me cry
I love Mercedes!!

Greetings back to you, Eduardo! Stay safe! 🙌
I can imagine myself as that little girl.... Inspired....♥️
That little girl called her witch😂😂
That same girl would have been beaten by her parents for dropping that milk
@@nathanieltraynor3326 Haha I hope they don't will do it
Public releations level 100!
Gut gemacht!
Great and powerful lesson. Loved it, and the little girl, she looked hopeful, confident of her future.
The only problem with that line of thinking is that the little girl only had to look forward to tending to the wounded and dying in her late 60's and hearing how her sons died, if she even made it that long.

The inclusion of the little girl was meant to show that, while the girl thought Bertha would be helpless when the machine broke down and have to ask for aid, when she fixed it herself the girl saw a more hopeful future for all women - that they were capable of more than just being pretty (or, in her own case, working the fields). It’s a feminist angle, that transcends the specific future Germany experienced.
I have always been a lover or Mercedes Cars since I was 12 years old. I didn´t know why I felt this very special, almost magical affection for them. I NOW KNOW WHY! Bertha Benz is SUCH AN INSPIRATION!!! HERE WE GO BERTHA!!!

Thank you for this. Would be so good to see a movie on this! x
Thanks! 😊 There is a movie about it actually, it's called Carl & Bertha (2011) by Till Endemann.
