concerning the filming and german laws... you are allowed to film in public, just not allowed to film people directly and individually. This was on the outskirts of some protests though, so that makes it a place of public interest and filming is allowed, especially because this guy comes up to the camera, thus by his own actions putting the spotlight onto himself.

4:46 The "Hausrecht" (domestic authority) is also a thing in Germany and generally allows companies and establishments a lot of freedoms. There is a huge misconception where people think the Hausrecht isn't enforceable because proprietors have to serve everyone as long as they don't disturb the service. While generally speaking, a proprietor may not discriminate for specific attributes - like race and gender and stuff - the burden of proof lies with the person who feels discriminated. Disregarding cases of discrimination, a proprietor can pick and choose their customers. With a major exception: when the business holds a monopoly position in the region or provides essential goods or services. In such cases, the proprietor's right to refuse service or entry may be limited. I remember reading about a spa a few years ago, where a pair of customers were "generally obnoxious" and got thrown out and sued against being thrown out. The court found that even without a reason, the proprietor would have been well within his rights. Which is something people generally argue with me about wouldn't have happend, even when I showed them the article.

Another addition: The "hat citizen" also approached the (highly visible) camera. The "hat citizen" has thus decided that he will be filmed in close-up. You can't prevent filming (by reporters at a demonstration) by going in front of the camera. This is a misinterpretation of the law. Filming a demonstration (without zooming in on individuals for no special reason) is permitted in Germany.

And obviously that had to succeed since they only had one take for that part.

1:30 well, there are different rules depending on the purpose of the recordings. In general, you're allowed to make pictures in public if you're on a public road. If you want to publish them you need to anonymize faces and other details, like car license plates - which is kind of a new rule, and did not apply at this time. However, he's part of a demonstration, and demonstrations are viewed differently anyway, as they are part of a "contemporary historical event" (=Zeitgeschichtliches Ereignis), so there's no need to anonymize anything if you publish pictures or videos, but especially not if we're talking about journalism.

Besides that. He approached the cleary visible camera. The laws for Dashcam recordings are in full fleshed German law language making it hard to translate. (Unbestimmte Aufnahme usw) But the most important part is : By going into public space you risk to be seen and accidently recorded. So you have no right to complain. And even illegal recordings are taken into perspective if the data protection of the individual is more important than the importance of the evidence. I just love how overcomplicatet, overregulated those laws are while at the same time they dont matter and court/judges etc are the ones who decide.

Its so funny when that happens, it also shows, that we have a massiv alcohol problem not a drug problem!

0:51 she says "Ginger Allee". Allee means tree-lined road.

[@marcgyver677]

Or simply "avenue".

[@RubenKelevra]

@@marcgyver677 avenue got more than one meaning, Allee does not. So tree-lined road is the most precise translation.

[@marcgyver677]

@@RubenKelevra It still amazes me when people get "thumbs up" for nonsense. No English speaker would use the term "tree-lined road", because there is a short and simple word for it - and that word is avenue. It's the EXACT translation of Allee.

[@clauslangenbroek9897]

@marcgyver677 I gave you a thumbs up for your amazement :) I'm certain English speakers would use tree lined road or canopy road to describe an 'Allee,' specifically. There's a reason why those words exist. You would not say 'Straße,' if you wanted to say 'Allee,' would you? But you could say 'baumbestandene Straße,' if we did not have the word 'Allee.' 'Avenue' describes so many different types of streets that nobody would understand that you are talking about the trees.

I really enjoyed watching you go over that video again at the end and analysing it!

[@LemmyD_from_Germany]

23:19 : I will only say - metric system: The sign with two zeros on the right side is promille ‰. Wikipedia says: A per mille (composed of Latin pro 'in relation to' and Latin mille 'thousand' ) or thousandth stands for the fractional number 0.001. Permille information is usually indicated by the permille sign ‰ . A per mille is 1/10 of one percent . You're welcome. Greetings from northern germany ❤

[@johnnythemachine6949]

22:20 that's a clip of the German reality show "Die Ludolfs". It was about the four brothers Peter, Günther, Uwe and Manfred Ludolf, who ran a junkyard together. Sadly Günther passed away a few years ago and the remaining brothers fell out with each other and they sold the junkyard, so the show ended. But as far as I know they're on good terms with each other again

[@zeldamaster-12321]

Finally a somewhat good translation of some real classic german memes.

Fun fact about germany:in germany thereare frog fencec these frog fences are plced near roads that are close to lakes so frogs dont get run over bye cars ,at the end of the day a person comes and brings all the frogs to the other side/to the lake

[@theoremofnik]

Every clip in there is soo iconic xD

[@MiaMerkur]

Is "iconoc" another word for boring?

[@Mokrator]

percent vs permille : its 1/10th of a percent... and usually above 4% can be deadly. getting above 5 / 1000 and still be able to put the key into the car he must be very used to alcohol.

[@BloodyRabbitProject]

8:53 "What was it about?" was a very bad translation, probably from google, because thats the exact sentence goole spits out when oyu type it in. Its a phrase in germany and the better one for "Woran hats gelegen" is probably "Why you were loosing today"... and he answers the same way

[@Patte-chan]

Hard disagree. Considering the phrase means "what circumstances lead to this outcome", "why were you losing today" would be far too narrow an interpretation.

[@MiaMerkur]

What caused it? Woran hat's gelegen? Nicht What was it about? Um was geht es?

[@BloodyRabbitProject]

@@Patte-chan I dont think its a hard disagree. That would apply a complete different approach. "why were you loosing today" is asking for the circumstances by itself. Itsliterally the same as "what circumstances leads to loosing". So i dont know what this "HARD" disagree is about. Even a disagree is a pointless word for the same question, its just different words. And if i think further, translating about "circumstances" wouldnt make the whole clip funny, because then you cant answer like he did. Which was the point

[@mistynightsatnoon]

13:36 another cool things about the video that I just noticed is that the boy actually manages to pull the table cloth off the table cleanly. So that’s basically two magic tricks.

[@RKSE79]

In Germany counts the law 'rights on ur own picture' u can film anybody and anything freely in public without any charges against u, but if u share it or release it in some way, u need the permission of the one u recorded, otherwise u can get sued for

[@vonBlankenburgLP]

Not on public demonstations. § 23 Abs. 2 KUG.

[@RKSE79]

Yes i know, and was defending the one who filmed not this guy. This guy was legaly recorded by press at an pegida demonstration, and there was a special right given by judge to release the footage of this particular event afterwards without the right of own picture.

After a football game he was asked why his team had performed so poorly. He was extremely drunk and couldn't find an answer himself 😂

[@nilshoppenstedt6073]

Die Übersetzungen waren Schrott. "Lügen sagen darf man nicht" wurde übersetzt mit "you can't tell lies", was so viel heißt wie "man darf nicht lügen". Aber der Junge meinte ja, dass man schon das Wort "Lügen" nicht in den Mund nehmen darf. Das ist ja gerade der ganze Witz in dem Meme.

[@maxheadroom22and26]

Bin nicht sicher, aber: Er meinte schon, "man darf nicht lügen", hat es aber falsch ausgedrückt.

[@aoeuable]

It's ambiguous, at least mundartlich "you can't tell lies" is a valid interpretation, there's not always a strict distinction between "sagen" and "erzählen". Also younger kids often have excessively regular language (like mouse - mouses instead of mice), in idiomatic Standard German it's Wahrheit sagen but Lügen erzählen it doesn't take much for a kid to use it differently. In any case I don't think they were discoursing about fine semantic details they just got caught up in a "nein - doch" loop.

[@nilshoppenstedt6073]

@@aoeuable Ist vielleicht etwas albern, das hier so detailliert zu diskutieren, aber hier ist nochmal der Disput im Wortlaut: Junge: "Lügen darf man nicht sagen" Mädchen: "Lügen darf man sagen. Aber lügen darf man nicht machen" Junge: "Ne, das darf man nicht. Lügen darf man nicht sagen" "Lügen darf man sagen. Aber nicht lügen." Es geht in dem Streit also nicht darum, ob man nicht lügen darf (darüber ist man sich einig), sondern ob man das Wort "Lügen" in den Mund nehmen darf. Wie gesagt, das ist ja gerade der ganze Witz an dem Clip! Und der geht halt durch die Übersetzung völlig verloren.

The correct translation would have been "you're not allowed to SAY lies" not "tell".

Fun Fact 16:12 The -Yippie! Is now a Meme in Lethal Company (Hoarding Bug)

[@SotGravarg]

That % sign with the extra 0 at the end means per mil it means that per kg of blood (it is expected that 1kg of blood is 1 liter) contains 1 gram of alcohol so with 5.5 per mil that would mean he had 5.5 grams of alcohol or 5.5ml (milliliter (Mil·li·li·ter)) per each kg (liter) of blood. So as a grown man with 5 liters of blood that would be 27.5 grams of alcohol in his body. Life is in danger at about 3 per mil because you are in danger of blood poisioning by the alcohol which can lead to death. So 5.5 per mil is really A LOT! Which makes it even funnier. I laughed so hard I felt my brain pulsating against my skull and I could hardly breathe cuz I was choking on my laughter. Prime example of german humor. 😂
