- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 ส.ค. 2024
- 16 days of madness! Some 6.5 million people travel to the Munich Oktoberfest in Germany every year - and they all head for the beer tents! But they’re often closed due to overcrowding! The Wies’n - as it’s commonly known - is the biggest Volksfest (beer festival and travelling funfair) in the world! If you can’t have fun here - you’ve only yourself to blame!
The 2020 Oktoberfest was official cancelled due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

Oi
The dubbed voices are the most enthusiastically acted I've ever heard lol
I am a German guy and love the voice, too! Super cheerful :D
Best dubbing ever.
dubbing voices is the most idiotic thing ever
There are people having a normal discussion and then there is this one guy who always wants to spread hate in anyway. and its absolutely true as you see in this comment section...how should people that don’t understand a single word german watch something in german and be immersed into it? Subtitles wont do the same job and i really can’t see a problem when dubbing documentary’s what joke or meaning is lost while doing so? Your whole commentary is useless and idiotic thx
Reminds me of some 1980s English dubbed Kung Fu movie
As a bar owner I can guarantee that controlling thousands of drunk people is the biggest logistical challenge ever. Kudos to the entire team, specially the security guys.
It definitely would take someone with the right demeanor to deal with so many drunk assholes and not make things worse.
I can't imagine. hahaha
I give credit to all security workers and all people involved there within the department of security
Looks like a quiet introverts worst nightmare.
The Octoberfest 2020 was undoubtedly the most peaceful and sober of all.
I missed it, that the U-Bahn was not full of barf, songs and laughter.
Shut up sheeple
Randy Bridges Octoberfest of 2021 will be even better with smart guys like you.
@@AgnostosGnostos Obviously I don’t believe the goddamn Tell Lie Vision or a Corrupt government
The saddest October in Bavarian history
hello from ireland , i went to the munich oktober beerfest way way way back in 1987 i was a very young man 23 years old lol , such a fantastic experience even back then , i always planned in going back again , but so far have not accomplished that , pushing 60 now and hope to do it soon, love germany and the german people. . very freindly and helpful. just like us irish
Aaaaaay Fellow Irish lad
Going to the Oktoberfest was by far the best experience of my life. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks Welt for making me remember that amazing experience!
I went there in 84 when I was a GI ,it was a great time we also went to a lot of summer weinfest in small towns. We always slept it off in the car and drove home in the morning, nobody ever gave us a problem.
Being an American soldier in Frankfurt, being around drunks was easy. My goal, therefore, became getting away from drunks. I learned, if I wanted a good time get away, far away from Americans.
Same, put a lot of miles on my bicycle all over the med. 250 drunken sailors could sap the charm out of a scrapyard.
@@YABBAHEY1 Every friend who joined the navy hit same bars in Baguio City PI out on West Pac. I heard about Captain's Mast .
I just discovered this and now I’m literally saving up to go in the future
Ikr. I had heard about it, but seeing it for the first time. In my bucket list.
Hey me too
with a name like that u belong in uganda
Bruh, me too
Rather than figuratively?
The good ol days of oktoberfest before COVID was a thing
Doesn't that suck....so many experiences gone now, I hope not forever but who knows...
Don Thank the German government for bringing in millions of undesirables
Covid turned Oktoberfest into Ventilatorfest
@D thank you Bil Gejts and Globalist...
Oktoberfest will be back in a year or two. Pandemics don’t last (even though it seems like forever when you’re in the middle of one).
My school happened to be right next to the Octoberfest. It's just crazy. You can ride roller coasters, get sausages or some beer in your lunch brake.
Thg?
-School
-Beer
Am I missing out on something? When my cousin tried to board school with half a bottle of vodka he got two weeks suspension lmao
@@riograndedosulball248 until 2010 circa, my former school bar (yeah i mean bar, not cafeteria) was serving wine, but then alcol sales was stopped at all because some 18yrs student get alcol during school time.
@@riograndedosulball248 No you won't go into school with that beer. You go to the Wiesn during your lunch break, drink it there and then return to school. That happens alot in Germany when festivals are held in cities. But even otherwise normally you won't get suspended if you were found to drink one beer or something while in school. But it is depending on the schoo, the circumstances and the teacher that catches you of course. One of my teachers once found me on the last day before the summer break with a bottle of Vodka sitting with my friends in school before classes started. We stayed awake during the night before drinking in the park (you can do that in Germany without problems). The teacher just told me I should go outside and spill it or drink it out fast before the younger students come which is reasonable. Other teachers that saw us before just smiled at us, knowing that we were celebrating the end of the school year. Alcohol really is normal for teens older than 16 years in Germany.
We were all 18 btw so we didn't do something illegal by drinking that Vodka.
In most schools however the consumption of alcohol during classes is forbidden. Nothing is wrong however with bringing alcohol. You can just say you want to drink it after school.
I served in the US Army in Germany back when there was still two of them. I got to attend 2 Oktoberfests and had a ball in each one.
The thing about it is that my squadron [battalion - I served in a cavalry regiment] commander never let us take leave for the whole two weeks. This was 1983, and tensions between NATO and the Warsaw Pact were very high. Because of that, the CO didn't want half his regiment drunk off their asses 75 miles from their duty stations. The max amount of leave you could take during Fasching and Oktoberfest was 3 days. But I sure as Hell did what I could to make the most of them!
You are not supposed to be there all the time. The people of Munich say they go there 3 times: one with the family, one with the friends and one with the work colleagues.
@@mikatu We have an event like that where I live too.
What do you mean "when there were 2"? There never were two. Are you confusing it with the added "Oide Wiesn", which is a bi-annual add-on festival, intended to be "like ye olden days"? But that was added only a few years ago. In 1983 I still lived there, and I'm quite certain I know how many Wiesn there were - unless one of us was seeing double. Which is a distinct possibility. 🤣 Or did you mean Starkbierzeit?
@@michaelhoffmann2891 I was in the BRD for three years... I went to Oktoberfest two years in a row.
@@carlhicksjr8401 Oh! Whoops, my bad! I thought you went to 2 different O-fests *in a year*. I was so confused. Were you over in McGraw Caserne? I lived close to there. There used to be the Little Octoberfest, which was a fun weekend US style BBQ.
That Australian who got back in the hotel twice in a day via an ambulance
Definitely a MadLad
Lets all get drunk and hop on a roller coaster............ said NO ONE EVER!!
@Shane B Once you’re drunk you might change your mind!
I like tequila before a rollercoaster ride
Lmfao HOOAH
I feel like I'm going to throw up just thinking about it.
I miss Germany a lot! Was fortunate enough to go to Oktoberfest once and it was absolutely insane!
too many people, too noisy, too expensive and beer is ok, but nothing more. It is mainly a tourist thing. Much better to go to smaller festivals
I was there in 1988. Stayed on the Olympic grounds. Such good memories!
I was not quite there in 1995 but in Hamburg. Munich has The Wiesn but Hamburg has the St Pauli district and the Reeperbahn. Even there they had huge tents and beer halls. Nice
Germany so beautiful, stationed there during my younger day’s in the army , been to October fest twice , never forget the fun and awesome experience
A mate and I travelled from Berlin for the first weekend of Octoberfest 1978. Looking at this video, it was nowhere near as commercialised in those days. I don't remember any security staff, even though thousands attended. We stayed in the Lowenbrau tent all day, as we had good seats alongside a friendly German family. There was a large carnival parade prior to the opening of the fest on the Saturday, then it was every man for himself in a race to the beer tents. My hotel room had a massage bed, which I foolishly activated after numerous large tankards of beer. It was as if I were at sea during a force 10 gale.
Ouch.
Incredibly sad i can't go this year after going for the past 3 years. I miss it so dearly
If you have never experienced it, you must. There were 12-14 "Beer Tents", each could hold approx 5000 "drunks"; sit whereever you like, everyone is friendly; drink and eat, and SING (even tho you don't speak German). I did it in 74, in a 36 hour period I downed 7 huge liters, and pissed an equal amount. Roam the fair, try different brews, enjoy.
10:15
This entire interaction is pure gold
I lived in Munich 25 years ago and went. I don’t remember how I got home and the next morning I woke up and though “hey, I don’t feel too bad” but then as soon as I moved I changed my opinion! 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺🤢🤮
Lol. Don't drink so much then. Keep it under control and enjoy your time ! Haha !
@@DipayanPyne94 Agree 100%! That was the last time I ever got anywhere near that drunk.
@@Sashazur Aah. Ok. Fine then. U aint German urself, right ? It must have been a lot of fun to explore a different country, particularly during festivals. I haven't explored my own so much. Lol.
@@DipayanPyne94 Enjoying without alcohol? Good joke
@@marvingordon7121 Why ? If you suffer because of Alcohol, don't drink. Or, at least keep it under control. As Simple as that ...
This might be the greatest documentary I have ever seen! The english dubs are incredible! Well done all-around.
You have to be in Munich once in your life while Oktoberfest. It is so festive. I was in Munich for Oktoberfest 2019. Really, really enjoyed myself.
Dude seriously, this is the BEST Welt documentary ever!!! Me biased? Nicht. I am 50% German with the remainder being Irish, Welsh, and Scottish, yet I am American… I have been wanting to attend Oktoberfest for close to twenty years yet it still has not happened; one day… 🤔🍺
Very similar on most ways too. American of much German descent and English and Scottish. that has wanted to go to Oktoberfest forever but hasn’t made it yet!!
Sir the fact you have Irish, Welsh and Scottish blood in you >>?? makes you Beer connoisseur and one of us :)
I want to go back so bad I was there in the 80’s I was 18 in the Army and 15 of us went and had an amazing time
I think I have watched this docu in German, already, the English dubbing is really excellent- kudos!
This docu showed a good and not so good incident takes place at ocktober fest. Knowledgeable must say.
Got to love how there is a designated hill for peeing and there is a crowd watching and cheering all the drunk people on lol.
I'll learn german just to fully enjoy being there
Ja sehr true mein freund . Das ist ein interessant idea. German isn’t easy except for some basic phrases like most languages but you can get general feel anyway.
@@burtonkephart6239 you are bang on.
Good luck!😅
Deutsche Sprache, schwere Sprache
Drunk german is even harder to understand
been there, done that, and amazingly never puked. i credit the high quality German beer for that, plus all the great food that was everywhere. would recommend getting reservations, even back when i went in 99 you needed reservations for almost all the tents. i see nothing has changed.
me neither but i did fall asleep outside the ladies toilets??? hmmm NOTE. i said OUTSIDE
Schneiderweizen is the BEST beer out there.
Illegal or not, I have never had issues with kids stoned on weed, the problem makers are the drunks. Something about alcahol is that it makes many individuals very aggressive. Weed smokers just sit around and vegetate. I was glad when the laws changed and didn't have to haul kids in for smoking. We still have issues with the drunks.
LE for over 20 years.
Yes, thats why I go rather to Ozora festivals. No drunk faces, no problems, just pure enjoyment
Alcohol brings out the REAL person. Ijs
Weed is trash
@@bradIeyyy and what is alcohol?
Fabio robbed those joints for the boys back in the security office
an aussie brought back bt ambulance twice to his hotel !!!ihats an aussie lol
One of the best places ever! BIG love from UK ♥️🍻🍻🍻
Thank you Welt for reminding the barflies of the world what ain't happening this October.
Best time I ever had in my life!!! So much fun!!!
The guy turning his friend to the camera at 33:43 lmaooo they’re now immortalized
@Chris you are weirdo with your creepy comment s
@chris falkenberg that was a little deep lmfao
Going to München in September of 2023, which is in a few months. Will report back here to this video on my findings lol
Unforgettable, beautiful Munchen, Die schontest staat.. !!
36:59 Poor Granny got smacked in the temple by a waiter! 🤭
I’ve been to the Hoffbrau Haus, but this looks like absolute hell.
as a man, I worked as a weightier and no one has ever fondled me like the morning coffee grandmas. Those old ladys tipped well and pinched, fondled and cupped everywhere. I made more working those morning shifts than my new job where I get payed about $25 ph.
I miss that morning shift.
Beer. Sausages. Busty women in a dirndl dress. This place has everything i need to be happy.
Great expression on the translations!
This is a great occasion for having a good time. I'm sure it originated from a harvest festival - all the wonderful stuff that nature provides. Because of it's success it's now on the international map and the locals can feel the pinch as usual.
Nah it originally comes from a royal wedding, which was such a great success that it was repeated consistently.
I've always wanted to go, but not anymore. 20 years ago would have been perfect! It just doesn't have the draw for me in my middle age anymore. Still it looks exciting, maybe my Son will go someday and I can hear all about it!
Same
Yeah, it looks like a young crowd. I'd feel out of place. I've tried to convince my friends' kids that they should go while they're young or they'll regret it later. Of course, since ancient me recommends it, the advice is ignored.
P.S. I've noted in a comment that the Oktoberfest crowds were older only a few decades ago (per TH-cam videos of past festivals). I don't begrudge the fun loving young adults taking over, though. Good for them!
What’s middle age ? You don’t look old
As a German I can tell you it's just overrated. Other cities also have beer fest, which are very close to Oktoberfest. Only difference is the lack of Australians, Italians and Americans.
@@Luflandebrigade31 Yeah, but it's neat to see young people from all over the world converge on Munich and associate their time in Germany with fun times. It also helps dispel all the outdated negative stereotypes about Germany and Germans that still persist in other countries.
I had been there several times and it is spectacular.
Watching videos on TH-cam of the Oktoberfest in past decades, it seems that even as recently as the 1980s, the crowd was older and not many were wearing traditional Bavarian costumes.
It seems like a much younger crowd from all over the world now, many in Lederhosen or Dirndls, whether the wearer is from Bavaria or Australia or Japan.
I think that's cool. Unfortunately for me, I'm past "young adult". I'll have to content myself with a Maß in a leafy beer garden among my peers and try not to think of the fun that I'm missing out on.
While wearing Lederhosen, yes?
I was in the service. I went to one of these events. And this video brings back alot of memories. Thank you for sharing this with me. German beer and the frarlines great times. Enjoy your selves
.
Perfect day to have fun, hope could spend some time there one day.
Love the video. That is so awesome. I would love to visit there.
Been there, done that. So much fun.🍺🍻👍🏻🥨
I was three times @wiesn love it !!! Hope so good old time come back soon ,
Used to go to the Beer fest in Nuremberg and Bayreuth
I never been to Oktoberfest I want to go someday. Looks so much fun 🙂
@chris what a weird strange comment, weirdo
@@bradIeyyy 🤣🤣🤣
Octoberfest is by far the most cultured and peaceful events as far as festivals go.....I went there in 1998 and it was fantastic!.....Never have i seen less totally drunk , misbehaved and unsatisfied people!.......It could be a reference point to all the other similar festivals regarding to behaviour, management of facilities and other jobs , which comes with having that kind of event.......Really i have been visiting many concerts and events all arround Europe and never have i seen better display of cultured behaviour and management of those individuals, who doesn''t comply to general rules......Keep up the good work in OCTOBERFEST 😎🍺🍻
As a teen I used to answer many of my phone with the line " Roller coaster appreciation society can I help you?" ok put a bunch of drunk people on a spinning and see who slides off last. that cant end badly
When ever there is a capture of busted person, it is going to be a big feast for security guards.
I was there in 2000. Such good memories!
I'm from Munich, almost 50 and still loving it 😂
Have seen drunk Australians fighting in pubs and bars in 2-3 countries :)
Really enjoyed this :)
Oktoberfest Community hold together 💯🍺💯🍺
22:00 : Not a German moaning about tourists getting to the front before everyone else!! She's clearly not been abroad before and taken a sun lounger!! 😄😂😂😂
The Daily Mail need only copy and paste that trope year after year. 😀
great documentary thanks
16:22 this guy must love his job
That is a great guy... when you could understand his dialekt, the way he provokates random people to make jokes is just excelent.
I used to live in Wiesbaden
big thanx for this video. i´m even did download it.
Imagine the chaos in the old days. Way before radios and comms
So glad I've experience this before the pandemic happened! What a memorable and fun experience.
That’s a very funny language😃
Greetings from Germany
first class videoI like very much.Pl.produce more videos like this .Thankyou.India.
Beautiful Germany/South Bavaria/Munich!
Does anyone find the beer lady similar to Gwyneth Paltrow ?
But cuter than Gwyneth!
Gwyneth Paltrow has German ancestry on her mother's* side.
*the actress, Blythe Danner.
I’m very German (ethnically) and I know nothing about German history or culture (except.... well...) but today I’ve found out about Oktoberfest and I wanna learn German now. (So I can go there)
Don’t be too surprised, the world develops simultaneously all the time.
I'm going down this year. 2022. Can't fucking wait!
🙋🏻♂️ 🍻 Hello from Sweden 🇸🇪
I like how you can drink yourself into a coma but get taken to jail for weed.
Yupp. One's legal, the other illegal. Kinda sad
Alcohol makes people want to fight and yell. Weed makes people want to relax and chill out. Yet alcohol is the legal one??
@@Retrosenescent having one as i type free the weed
The English guys really were drips loool hehe
That is what i called life!
Amazing
Maybe in next 10-15 years I'll be there❤️.. I'm poor now... it's my dream fest.
Very interesting😀😍
Olympia Looping is a legend. Ride b4 u drink. This is my only reason for attending oktoberfest munchen.
New Zealand represented.
What an all round great attitude! Much of the world would benefit a visit! Really Great event!**
Was on a Contiki tour of Europe back in 1991 with a bunch of Aussies & Kiwis, got through six steins. Was never the queues like it appears nowadays.
This is what earth looked like before COVID my dear youngsters
Is Oktoberfest gonna be held this year 2020?
No
really great documentary!
Wow. I would like to enjoy it. Someday I'll.
I'm saving up to go to Oktoberfest🍻 drink beer, eat sausages and enjoy the German summer. ♥️
Goddammit... they know how to have fun
on that spinning thing it doesnt seem like people are wearing underwear lmao theyre like college party animals but more extreme XD
It's great and looks like a lot of fun, but it is not the biggest gathering in the world. The biggest gathering in the world is the Kumbh Mela in India, which happens once every 3 years. Despite being Indian myself, I have never attended it. As far as I know, more than 100 Million people attend it. Hope to be a part of it some day !!
It's a beer festival not a gathering there are lots of festivals in Germany you don't after go here to have a good time
Watching this during corona virus!
I´m planning to go... This video gave me a very good Big Picture of the party.
