AMERICAN REACTS To A helmet has always been a good idea

[@mikkelturtvig]

this is made by the danish council for trafic safety to promote the use of helmets while cycling, given how many people cycle in Denmark.

[@rednaxela7875]

It wasn't a commercial for a company, it's just a video from the government to encourage wearing helmets :)

[@KnittedSister]

Fun fact: he calls the boy Hjalmar. Thats a norse name that means helmeted solider.

[@malytheson]

O dunno here in denmark a few people are called Hjalmar

[@KnittedSister]

@@malytheson Hjalmar is an old name used since the time we spoke norse. Thats just what the name was meant to project back then. That doesn't mean it isn't valid as a name today. Halfdan is just as old a name, and that's still used too. Almost all names has some sort of symbolism that may have become less important over time, but is none the less still attached to it. I know a Svend, a Frida and a Signe. Those are names originating from Norse too, with their own original symbolism, but still used today alongside names originating from Christian tradition, like Jacob, or Christian.

Actually helmets in this AD are better than in 99% Viking films.

[@Leandorz]

becuz its made in denmark, the home of viking helmets

[@EmilReiko]

@@Leandorz The original of the helmet he put on was found in Norway, and the original helmet on the other guy was found in Prague

[@Ozzzy506]

watch norsemen.

[@dmitryskliarenko2451]

@@Ozzzy506 There is only 3 good films about Vikings. Norsemen, Utlagin & Dragens fange.

[@EmilReiko]

@@dmitryskliarenko2451 The Northman is by far the best viking age set movie to have ever been made, both in regards to presenting the material culture of the viking age, as well of the mental culture and values that guided scandinavian societies at that time.

[@kasperkjrsgaard1447]

Actually quite a lot of the danes do wear the helmets - even if we’re not going to England. It’s mandatory for riding motorcycles and mopeds, and is by your own choice on bicycle, horse, skateboard, rollerskates etc etc. But a good idea. 😉

[@lotteolsen3920]

For cycling - all the vikings arguments against a helmet are the ones used by adult Danes, as bad excuses why they do not wear a helmet while their children do….

[@Alexandros.Mograine]

I mean, ofc not just danes but by everyone. Expecially the "im a careful rider" :D i literally remember saying that asa kid/teenager.

[@birkebk9527]

I love this one 😂😂😂 specially the guy laughing - he is the best

[@henrikcarlsen1881]

Strange, as a Dane, I find him delivering the worst act. Should I edit something out it would be him.

[@HelleKurstein]

In the US you won't get it, unless you realise that most Danes ride bikes all the time - from 3-year-olds going to kindergarten (accompanied by parents on bikes, of course) to way beyond 70 for shopping, meeting friends, anything.

[@larsrons7937]

Thanks for the reaction video. I absolutely love that video. If you haven't done it, I wish to recommend this other safety video: _Air New Zealand - The Most Epic Safety Video Ever Made __#AirNZSafetyVideo_

[@LynxLord1991]

It's a safety commercial

[@rickybuhl3176]

yeah, promoting cyclists etc to wear a helmet. Kinda cute - and it probably translates better than the "Hvad f*ck er en bælgfrugt?" from Fødevarestyrelsen..

[@LynxLord1991]

@@rickybuhl3176 Haha Yes definitely

[@TainDK]

Its a PSA - As you know we bike - like a lot. It is not a law to wear helmets (as that would decrease riders) so PSA's are the way to keep us thinking about wearing that helmet =)

[@-_LEPIDODENDRON]

I have seen this commercial several times, also a Hello from denmark🇩🇰

[@Nicoleoguchi]

This is a fun video 😂

[@darklady6987]

so funny !

[@dennissindlev1903]

now a day's we do not use helmet's when we go to england... #roligans

[@viper71dk]

I do....but then again I do ride a motorcycle.

[@PhilipZeplinDK]

One of the funniest commercials made :D fucking hilarious :D

[@vrenak]

If you like that one, kzbin.info/www/bejne/hJC2mmmAnJ1gmtU this is for my regions public bus service, (also in Denmark)

[@helleeckert2522]

In Denmark we use helmet when we bike,skate everything.

[@MrGamer-kx8yl]

I'm from Danmark😂

[@langbo9999]

🇩🇰👍

[@peterpoulsen1191]

They should make a full movie with that sort of humor....

[@lewalskidk]

A lot of danish movies do. And they have actors like Mads Mikkelsen and his older brother Lars, too ;)

[@eidodk]

Stopping a two minute video TEN times.... come on.....

[@kingwacky184]

my thought exactly such a short video he can watch it all the way through and talk after

[@antonlb143]

Bruh stop complaining go watch the video itself if you find him annoying

[@cbjmurer]

Tror du har misforstået konceptet med reaktioner... Hvis du vil se det uden afbrydelser, så opsøg den originale video. For mit vedkommende, er halvdelen af fornøjelse, at se andres reaktion. 🙂

[@jonasmejerpedersen4847]

@@cbjmurer helt enig i det

[@LordVictorHalgaard]

We do generally wear helmets here in Denmark, at least in populated areas, cause you'll get a huge fine if you don't...

[@mulakai666]

det er noget fis det der ;D du får ikke en bøde for at kører uden cykelhjelm på cykel..

[@RikkeDK1996]

you will only get a fine for not wearing a helmet if you drive a moped/motorcycle/electric-scooter(not the handicap thing) there are no laws regarding helmet wearing on bicycles. Which is why this advertisement was made in the first place, to encourage the use of helmets.
