I live near Newcastle upon Tyne in the UK. Here on June 21st the sun rises at 4.29am and sets at 9.50pm but get this if the night sky is mostly clear of clouds you can look towards the north sky and it is still light. That is a midnight twilight. However on December 21st the sun rises at 8.30am and sets at 3.40pm. So it ranges from 7 hours and 10 minutes to 17 hours and 21 minutes of day light every year. This isn't taking into account dawn and dusk.

[@MrsBrit1]

Dawn and dusk are exceedingly long in summer....and non-existent in winter. I swear it gets dark before the sun even sets in winter. 😂

[@what-uc]

@@MrsBrit1 I had to research this. Twilight is shortest at the equinoxes (march and september) and in midsummer it is the longest but in midwinter it's somewhere in between. It's to do with the angle of the sun's path and the angle of the part of the horizon it goes down at

Bear in mind sunset means just that. In summer the UK doesn't get what science considers true night. On clear days it's pretty obvious, like I've gone outside and looked west at 11:30pm and ..... yeah the sky is dark, but there's STILL some light on the horizon. And at the peak of the solstace, I think I woke up about 3:45am to go to the toilet to find.... yup, it's not sunrise but it was already getting light. Then the opposite in winter..... and if you have one of the really bleak rainy days it barely feels like there was any daytime

[@klaxoncow]

Though the Sun technically sets at, say, 9.20pm (or to use the correct 24 hour notation 21:20), that's the Sun reaching the horizon - the sky can still stay bright for another hour or so. There's a bunch of different twilights - astronomical twilight, nautical twilight, civil twilight - which define the absolute darkness of the night sky for different applications, and in the Summer months, the UK never technically reaches "night" but only "astronomical twilight" (I mean, to the eye, that's night but it strictly never reaches the proper "zero brightness" of true night). Of course, this is nothing compared to those further North, inside the Arctic Circle, with their 6 month "day" and 6 month "night".

The "Bless You" response to a sneeze goes back to bubonic plague (sneezing was a symptom of Black Death). In Ireland, the gaelic population lived in more remote areas and largely escaped the fate of the Anglo-Irish living in the ports and cities. Guess English transferred the custom to the 13 colonies...good to hear it's still a thing stateside.

I'm Scottish. I don't think I've ever NOT heard anyone say bless you when someone sneezes! Also, at this time of year (I'm in the far north) it basically doesn't get properly dark at night.

I have just returned to England after fourteen years living in China. I have been back for ten months now and I still feel like this is not the same country that I left. I am having far more trouble adjusting to this than I had moving to China. The point about feeling that you don't belong is all too real. Unless you are getting back into the social circle that you originally left it's really difficult (especially at my age - 67) to find any kind of social life and as I had a large circle of friends in China - both international ex-pat and Chinese - it's a massive culture shock to find that I don't have that in my own country.

I worked for many many years as a holiday rep and spent 3 years in Spain 3 years in and out of Greece, I spent 2 years in Italy and I'm English so each and every time I would come home something about my country had changed but it also made me homesick when I was working away. The only country I never felt homesick going to was Australia and there I could have stayed for the rest of my life. The whole of the UK is split into counties and each one is different but also the same if that makes sense. No county is perfect. The food portion sizes in America would feed two or three people. I remember going to Florida with my entire family. It was quite a large gathering we booked to stay in Kissmee it was lovely. The hotel we stayed in was clean tidy and really nice. On our first night there we wanted to order Pizza. We ordered 10 pizza's thinking they were on the same size as what we get in the UK. I have never in my life seen pizza's that big we were still eating pizza for lunch the next day. Your MacDonalds sizes are huge compared to the UK and also a lot of what you eat our country will not allow here. The winter solstice occurs on the 21 December at 9.21am GMT. The winter solstice occurs in December, and in the Northern Hemisphere the date marks the 24-hour period with the fewest daylight hours of the year. That is why it is known as the shortest day of the year, or the longest night of the year. The summer solstice is an astronomical event that marks the longest day of the year and the start of summer in the Northern Hemisphere. It nearly always falls on June 21, but can also fall on June 20 or June 22 depending on the year and time zone you are in. It's not RACIST to say you will never be a true Londoner it is a fact so why did he use that word. If you are born in London you are a native.

I would say, for almost any brit, no matter what you've done in life, what you've achieved, how high a status you've achieved, whatever class you've come from, no matter how good quality the food you now eat is, or as refined as your palate has gotten as you get older, for most Brits their absolute favourite food can be something as simple as nuggets chips and beans, fish fingers butties with ketchup, tomato soup with cheese toasties, or even something even more basic from when they were kids, and it's not because of those foods being fantastic or amazing to eat, but because of the memories that they evoke. But then you have certain dishes from childhood that you don't just eat for nostalgic reasons. There's things my mum used to make for me as a kid that I still make now, 25 years after she's passed away and I'm now an old fart, simply because they taste effing amazing and can't be beat. Also, why do Americans take the piss out of the Brits for saying "bo-ull off wa-huh" or some such bollocks pertaining to the words bottle of water,-which, in reality, to be honest you very rarely hear anything remotely like that - but then a very large amount of America pronounces it very much like "baddle of warder".

The coffee machine had a fault so it was making the coffee hot enough to breach regulations. If I recall correctly the fault was known about by the restaurant. Also, whilst the story was spread that she was driving when she spilt it, she was just sitting in the passenger seat, and the car was stationary, in the restaurant's car park. The top wasn't well secured and when she put the cup between her legs some spilled out, burning her and causing her to flinch, causing more to be spilled on her.

It took me until the last minute of the video to realise Evan had a chinstrap beard. He somehow looks exactly the same but extremely different to normal. It's in itself a sort of reverese culture shock.

I watch Emily D.Baker (a lawyer) and there are ridiculous cases that gave her a headache. Either badly written, joined or just ridiculous. Like the woman wanted to sue as when making a ready made food it didn't include putting the hot water in, in its timings.

It's because the untoasted bread that is supposed to be toasted is not bread and therefore needs a different label 😂

[@michaeljeacock]

ALL bread can be toasted. if it's a bread then you can toast it.

[@davidwilson6577]

"No, not laws!" 100% Agree. Not for any specific reason about situations where big portions are appropriate, just on principal. Evan has immigrated into a part of the UK where overpopulation has led to overeager regulation of normal behaviour that's fine.

[@nagillim7915]

If Evan is missing German food in the UK he should find himself a local Polish shop. My aunt is half German and whenever she comes to visit she takes bags of Polish food from the local Polish shop back home with her on the train because she says it reminds her of Berlin. You'd think Aldi and Lidl would be good for a fix of German foodstuffs but she says what they stock in the UK is completely different to what they stock in Germany. 🤷‍♂️

Whatever he's on? I want some of that!!!!!! 🤔

When I pass a fish market it reminds me of drunken one night stands and hangovers

She got a third-degree burn from it. A third-degree burn means that the bone is exposed.

The American wadder😂

[@Olim22]

In the US actual bread is a rare occurrence, like seeing a leprechaun. All they have is TOAST. As you see in this reaction they don’t even know what bread is. It’s all toast to them 🤷‍♂️😂

It's an old thing in parts of the Midlands.

[@hardywatkins7737]

Funny. I grew up in a town which had something of a reputation of being a kind of 'hippy town' ... organic/health foods, art/music college, alternative therapys, great music scene, and in the time when i had moved away for years, because of it's reputation it just got worse ... more hippys, more 'green cafes' more health food shops, more spiritual/alternative stuff and people walking around in bare feet and white dreadlocks, tie die clothing ect... you get the picture. And every time i visit it's just frankly wierd and alien and i'm both amused and bemused by it. I call it a parody of it's former self.

I think I found a unicorn, a soft spoken american on the internet!? Color me impressed.

you wont last long in England if you jump the queue. We take queueing seriously plus its out of order, suppose you have been queueing for ten minutes and Someone just walks in and is ahead of you lol

[@LalaDepala_00]

As a Dutch person I have culture shock almost every time I speak with people from the U.S. Dutch people are pretty direct and open and I am used to being able to speak about everything with anyone. Not every American appreciates that. There is quite some censorship in the U.S. and "things you can't say". That is very foreign to me. If two Dutch people have a disagreement, they can still be friends. If I disagree with an American, especially about politcs, they consider me the enemy. Edit: Grammar

I wonder how long it'll be before Tyler reacts to this same video, then the others. I don't know why you all don't get together in the same room and watch and react to the same videos at the same time. I'm sure you'd be able to cover more ground as a group.

[@davidwilson6577]

0:21 slickest awkward edit I ever saw.

[@rikardottosson1272]

From the outside, it seems the Netherlands do a lot of “do Dutch things, eat Dutch food, don’t be weird” when dealing with immigration, like Americans saying the get home-made American fruit snacks they had packed for their kids rejected by school because “it’s not Dutch”. Nice enough to tourists, but - enough is enough, don’t be putting down roots! I mean I get it, it’s important to preserve your culture. Fair enough.

Toast. Many words change meaning when adopted into another language.

I had terrible culture shock when I returned to the UK after 3yrs living in rural Thailand. The cheap & delicious food, the sunshine, the friendliness, the way that nobody at home was remotely interested in what I'd been doing while I was away & my only friend at work was a guy who had also lived overseas & was shunned by our coworkers. I had the double whammy of being northern but ending up working in the south of England 😬. Sure Thailand has it's problems like anywhere and not everyone fits the friendly stereotype although that's mostly in tourist areas & not surprising because so many tourists are awful entitled people. For years I still ate rice or noodles for most meals & 20years later my preference is still for Thai or other Asian food. I regret not returning to Asia when I had the chance 😢. Moving back to North Wales where I lived before Thailand has been a good move though. Maybe being a foreigner just suits me 😅.
