Rumspringa - Amish Teens Head For The Outside World | Pariahs

Anke and Elmer are two innocent Amish teenagers about to embark on Rumspringa, a time when Amish adolescents can let loose and explore life outside the community.
After sampling some of the delights of the outside world before their trip, they prepare to depart for the big city… but are they ready?
Written and performed by Jamie Demetriou and Ellie White.

I swear, watching this makes me smile no matter what else is wrong with the world. Amazing job.

[@kaseymorist8991]

What makes this good is these actors are good.

[@rhysfriesen]

Mennonite here. This is top tier Amish parody! And from Brits as well. Full respect for the research and care put into this sketch :) An entire series of this, please and thank you!!

[@toulow]

Hey woah, What do you mean “and from brits” I’ll have you know we’re a pretty funny bunch of people. I once dirtied my shoe after a peasant child had cleaned it, then made him clean it again hahahahhaa.

[@Ang.0910]

“Standing still, pass the jar” “I want to try heroin” This shit was hella funny 😂

[@HannahYael-MayaDevi]

It’s not real because the Amish don’t where buttons. Also her hair is all wrong.

[@avclayton5]

HannahYael Pretty sure they don't wear eyeliner beards either.

It’s because the ‘him’ sounds like on of those tubes you turn upside down

She laughs so many times in this. My favourite is at 2:20. Would love to see the outtakes.

[@straightedgesteve3923]

Sacha Baron Cohen still looks so young.

[@alexandraclaro8898]

This is so funny

[@wellesradio]

Not to nitpick, but their communities are usually adjacent to highways or they have public roads that run through them. They've seen lots of cars. They probably do business with people who come to them in cars.

[@awkwardsean5141]

For the first couple of minutes I thought they were just having a laugh and being sarcastic...was I the only one?

[@daveyhal]

Sounds and looks a bit like Christoph Waltz.

[@makaso92]

How would they know?

Fuck off

I assume you're going to do all the faiths? Let's laugh at them all! Only you won't.

[@weirdscience8341]

They won't I want a Muslim one bollox will they do it u know why ...as far as the non Christian BBC is concerned Christianity is fair game and if u don't like it your racist and Elizabeth the 1st was black bla bla I'm moving to Poland fuck it here

[@AlanWattResistance]

amazing how you can mock Christians but not any other minority group, talk about inconsistent.

[@avclayton5]

Kind of surprised that BBC would make a skit mocking an entire community's faith/way of life. Bad taste, guys.

[@Chistralish]

I interpreted it as them making fun of how other people/videos have represented the amish

[@avclayton5]

Chistralish I hope that's the case. To me it just feels like they're taking cheap shots on a medium that their target doesn't have access to.

[@jojolikescocoa]

though i agree, not like they can find out and get angry about it, technology..

[@jamestown8398]

It's not like any Amish are going to get offended; they don't watch television! JK. I agree that mocking a religious community is in bad taste for BBC.

[@princeryell]

who cares lol

Wtf is this 😁🤣😂?

[@maximilliansmith2]

This wouldve benefitted from even 2 minutes of research on amish accents and culture. Very vague and inaccurate, so the joke doesnt carry

[@princeryell]

just laugh man...its not suppose to be taken that seriously 😂😂

[@al_p]

Nice one... them Amish had it coming for ages, being all nice and standing still and doing farms. Now, do a Muslim one or some other random Abrahamic monotheistic religion or something. Get all like turbans and curry and stuff and do the accent! p.s. Anke looks lovely and sensible passing that jar and finding those belts! I saw her at the Fringe during her Rumspringa and have been quite besotted ever since.

[@samsonbreitbart]

BBC should make it more clear from the beginning that this is satire

[@48C]

It's not up to them to help morons.

[@honeybunch5765]

May we still joke about things about this? Everything is so political correct nowadays. 🤣
