This was epic you guys! 👍 We Germans should be full of guilt as ashamed as well, for how we looked like in the 90's! I go down to my knees because I was already a teen, full involved in the GDR community [without an accent you noticed, right] and also responsible for this pictures we painted for the rest of the world. Anyways 😂 The longer the video last the better it gets. There was so much within this short movie. Where Jerry is holding the f6 cigarettes, they btw survived until today. Also so much proved stereotypes and the guy in Cologne who's talking to Jerry, made me falling down from my couch 😂

The British have separate taps because the hot water could be contaminated and unsafe (to drink). They had open boilers for the hot water. (See Tom Scott)

[@RoderikvanReekum]

@77-ca-1-76 It's more complicated then that, see the following video for detailed explanation "tom scott british taps" there is some logic to it.

[@busking6292]

It used to be that the only SAFE drinking water was from the kitchen 'cold' tap which was at mains pressure,all the other taps hot and cold were fed from a loft water tank which could become contaminated over time,this was ALSO fed by the mains supply but only gravity was used from the tank to the various other taps and boiler feeds.Most of the tanks were plastic or galvanised steel with just a cover on top for ease of access and were almost never cleaned internally(awkward and difficult job mostly)

[@RoderikvanReekum]

As a Brit it’s uncomfortable hearing the Berliners discuss UK healthcare near the beginning as what they’re saying is true. Unfortunately the UK is presently in REAL shit and not just in healthcare.

[@hudsondonnell444]

The mean household income in the United States was $6900.00 in 1965, the year that Medicare and Medicaid were established. The cost of a month's stay in a hospital was easily paid in full by a middle-class household in a reasonable time. Currently, the average monthly cost of hospital care is about $80,617 US dollars. The intrusion into healthcare by the government raised the cost of healthcare 600% from 1965 to 1975. Governments create problems and then offer smoke and mirrors solutions to fix the mess that they make.

At 11:14 the "East German town" shown is actually the Kornmarkt in Zwickau, Saxony. It's where the aforementioned Holiday Inn used to be located, by now called First Inn. Never has been particularly busy of spot because as there is no real business there, while down the street is the Hauptmarkt with cafes and other shops, quite busy back then and even today. Also; Back then 20:30 was a somewhat misleading time to pick in Germany to judge "activity" of people on the street. German TV has the tradition of showing news at 20:00, and then some interesting movie/show at 20:15. So between 20:00 and around 22:30 plenty of German streets can be eerily empty, particularly back then when streaming wasn't even much of an option.

@Zen Well, maybe I am overimagining things here, because I like him as well as being German myself. But I do feel like whenever he insults people or is racist about something, it is not in fact meant that way. Not in an insulting or deminishing way at least. It may be criticism, but in many cases it is his way of processing difficult subjects into a story that is lighthearted enough to be enjoyed. I mean he managed to scrape quite a few parts of deep-rooted world-moving problems that originate in Germany, while not making them so overbearing that the 30min long episode becomes a heavy history documentary. Because that is never what was intended.

32:03 - erm ... the EU was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2012, Britain left it in 2020, so now Germany actually has a prize for peace and Britain doesn't. 😁

[@AK-ULTRA]

Germany still killed 6 million Jews

[@gimmeagig]

Great segment. There is nobody like Clarkson.

[@7inrain]

@17:28 BTW: The guy who expressed his taste for Blue Nun asked after drinking it: "Is' Wein, ne?" Which translates to: "This is wine, isn't it?" So you get some clues about his expertise.

Germany is famous for beer , found barrels at Bodensee lake 8000 years old. Barrels were the reason why homo sapiens started satteling at one place

[@THE-BUNKEN-DRUM]

@@_Alfa.Bravo_ : HA, you said "Homo" 😆

[@Lexx1976]

Let's compare our car industry. Germany has Mercedes Benz, BMW, AUDI, VW, PORSCHE, OPEL, RUF, BRABUS, ALPINA. And they own Lamborghini, Bentley, Rolls-Royce, Seat, Skoda.... Britain is left with... wait...!? Never mind

[@chrisprobert6]

I reckon Sabine is pinnacle of German engineering...😄👍👍

[@gmy33]

[@3isr3g3n]

Kek this is top banter "I enjoyed it quite a bit, until you bastards started shooting at us", i am in tears, that guy is gold What a somber end. Great show, gonna binge that thing.

[@markusschmidt7513]

"In just over 100 years, they started two world wars, killed 6.5 million Jews, were occupied by four foreign powers, and invaded almost all of their neighbors. So it's no wonder that the Germans had very little time to learn a musical instrument. Whatever radio station you tune in to, it's always complete rubbish. If I gave my 6 year old daughter a violin I'm sure she would make a more appealing noise." Love these lines to describe Germany in a nutshell (and, of course, completely leaving aside that Germany is the home of classical music and even the British coronation anthem was composed by a German (Händel)...)

[@tick999]

The English can't Handel the fact they're actually German 😉

[@stephanfuchs7891]

That was 20 years ago. It'll be awesome if he did an update.

[@Berenvacht]

Hahah, the part about the radio stations is still true. Blows my mind every time when I drive through Germany how awful their musical taste is, or at least, that of their radio DJs.

[@jan_777]

May be you're just unable to tune in to the right stations. The music is the same in every country, nothing good nor bad about it. Always the same top ten on the main stations.

[@trentweston8306]

Herr Schmitt caught me off guard with that little joke 👏👏👏

[@SharpblueCreative]

That German at the beginning was right about our Health Service. And this was filmed years before the crap we’re stuck with now!

[@raycroal]

its ok in scotland

[@sebastian6192]

But don’t dare to look behind the curtains of German healthcare system financing 😅

[@THE-BUNKEN-DRUM]

No system is perfect, but to say "It's crap" is all kinds of wrong.

[@Lordvader330]

RIP Sabine. So good to see you again doing why you loved!

[@bluesque9687]

But German music history is awesome!!! It really is brilliant

[@pilsplease7561]

Most underrated comment ever " I enjoyed it untill you bastards started shooting at us" Lol im dead.

[@chrisbee9643]

02:40 Its now 32 Years... still not done :) Greets from East Germany xD

[@TWARDOWSKY.]

0:05 and in fact, they have nothing to do with the rest of the continent and they have BREXIT, England's biggest failure...
