TLDR's Race Across Europe - Episode 3

[@ANTREU96]

Rookie mistake from Ben's team: never expect Deutsche Bahn to be on time

[@AndreiZisu]

Came here for the exact same comment. The naivity of booking with a 4 minute change time

[@jackson9143678]

The "P" in Deutsche Bahn stands for "punctuality"

[@will_lol]

and the "o" stand for "on time always"@@jackson9143678

[@TemetN]

This is one of the big takeaways about European trains from Jet Lag. Deutsche Bahn is terrible. Honestly the only trains that seem really good were Switzerlands.

[@FrederiChoppin]

Good old Deutsche Bahn.. the symbol of German punctuality and efficiency

[@miloPRcohen]

I can still remember Sam having his trains cancelled.

[@josephc.9520]

​@@miloPRcohenTwas on a train to Frankfurt, no?

[@IMRadishMan]

Better than Amtrak

[@theanyktos]

As the Wise Guys like to say "Senk ju fo trevveling wis Deutsche Bahn"🎶

[@Freezyloen]

Ahahah, I knew this was coming, and it did not disappoint.

[@theanyktos]

I love that some random person in Denmark got some TLDR merch for free😂 they're gonna be so confused

[@TheAskingthepvp]

Lesson from JetLag: Dont trust the Deutche Bahn

[@jacobchung7707]

Sam be like ~~~

[@Falco.]

Is so amazing that jack team realised the mistake zak team meade a gew minutes before they met them

[@TLDRnewsEU]

Honestly, watching it back it doesn't feel real. Especially because I confidently say that because of that they can't be on our flight... just for Zac to walk up behind us before I finish the sentence - Jack

[@bathamsteryt]

Do you think Zak's team ever realizes thier mistake

[@Falco.]

@@bathamsteryt no i think they'll realize at the end of the run. Jack team has no plans on getting to the true danish destination. That is just going to slow them down

[@Twilightsfavquill]

The Ghost order continues to be a source of glee for me

[@RosyMiranto]

And the Ghost Order Logo is sitll among my favorite part of this series

[@JaegerDreadful]

I loved the clown music when Zac made the made up delivery.

[@RaymundoX]

For some reason, this series makes me much more stressed than JetLag!! 😜

[@WOBBLINDATNOLA]

I agree. I'm an American who lived in UK and traveled Europe in the last four years. I feel the stress and also I'm yelling at the screen going why would you take that route. But strangely, it's fun and exhilarating when the episode is over. Now to sign up for nebula to watch the next episode before the forecast high temperature here (New Orleans, LA, USA, reach 38⁰ C with a heat index of 50⁰ C

[@oscarw1060]

The jetlag team seem to plan things out more beforehand, whereas these guys are flat out planning on the go. Jetlag are also just more experienced at this point. I love both!

[@RaymundoX]

@WOBBLINDATNOLA I'm American currently in London for the summer. Whenever they mention Ryanair, I stress bc I have to go in the visa check line every time 😩

[@TLDRnewsEU]

Don't worry we found it very very stressful too haha - Jack

[@dukesilver3491]

Really enjoying a British version of Jetlag. Don't get me wrong, I love Jetlag, but it's very American. I'm happy to see something I can relate to more.

[@Interitus1]

i feel so bad for all parties when these groups of random people show up at the door and give packages. The person who answers who speaks varying English. And the actual fan who ordered and missed a chance to meet some of the people from TLDR

[@sinc45]

Ben's team literally jumping for joy, not getting his bratwurst, the MTV Cribs tour, Jack throwing the envelopes down when he sees Zac, I love it!

[@Eiweing]

This is so lovely due to the genuine reactions, and spirited conversations. Nothing staged, just people invested in a fun (yet stressing) task :)

[@justmeajah]

Yes!

[@Fannywikstrom95]

the people at the wrong address in denmark getting free merch must be so confused haha

[@TLDRnewsEU]

I'd love to drop them an email to explain, but as we obviously don't have their contact details, we can't ever really reach out to explain - Jack

[@nebuzaradan7022]

​@TLDRnewsEU you know their postal address... couldn't you send a letter?

[@sinc45]

Will the real address ever get their order? Tune in next week!🤣🤣🤣

[@AngelaLSullivan]

Deeply in need of a new TLDR show hosted by Jan and Scarlett (Ben is allowed to make guest appearances). Incredible banter.

[@ulrichbrodowsky5016]

As someone living in Germany I was really surprised when the ICE from team red was a few minutes late. I instinctively assumed that it would be 2 hours late like normal!

[@jacobchung7707]

lmao db

[@sphinx3r]

You could have hit both the ones in Denmark quite fast actually. There is a plane that flies from Copenhagen to Sønderborg 3-4 times a day, and Sønderborg is quite close to Aabenraa. But it's not a cheap flight, and afterwards you'd struggle to get out of Aabenraa (easiest would be a several hour drive to Billund or Hamburg), so it really should have been a 4-5 pointer.

[@cuatez2]

Loving the series! It's so well edited. It's been really clear to follow who is doing what, where and when. Kudos for the excellent graphics, colour schemes and overall context setting. And I am loving THE DRAMA!

[@samuelbuehler4751]

With the 8hr sleep rule a night train would probably be the best solution. Possibly flying into Milan, get the 2 in Switzerland, the one in Southern Germany (around Freiburg) and then the night train to Amsterdam.

[@DAG924]

No matter how punctual the trains are... You just don't do transfers when the gap is 4 min. Not to mention DB , haha!!!

[@jrsmeets]

Additional support from Sam Denby, Adam Chase and Ben Doyle. So actually a Jet Lag spin off.

[@lukasinkovec]

This is an incredible series ;D Repeat for 20k orders?

[@aidanclarke6106]

Next year: TLDR Survivor

[@SuperFitzyBoi]

I feel so bad for Jack. I forgot my passport on my way to a gig in Paris 10 years ago and realised just before getting on the EuroStar in London. I had to go all the way back to Stoke-on-Trent (about a 5hr round trip) to pick it up, somehow I still made it to Paris just in time for the gig. (Luckily I had set off early in the morning because I'd planned to spend the day queueing). I can't even imagine the stress of that happening while in the middle of a race 😢

[@thetrison]

"That is so cocky." LMAO.

[@talisenamell]

I wish this was live it’s been so good

[@achtundsechzig792]

Deutsche Bahn brings a nice twist to the game

[@triton_152]

typical deutsche bahn experience at 14:33, one train is on time, one is 15 mins delayed and the third one is cancelled (=fällt aus)

[@peterfireflylund]

Should we tell them that there is a train from Helsingborg down along the coast and then across the bridge to Copenhagen Airport? There was no need to take the ferry back and then take a taxi or train to the airport (and certainly no need to stop at Copenhagen Central!)... It takes between 1h04 and 1h30.

[@sebastianrebiere9017]

this is so nice to see, it's like getting another jetlag while jetlag is uploading now

[@napoleonibonaparte7198]

Imagine if Zac's team flew to New York, Ukraine for a New York order...

I feel for you Jack. But seriously losing your Passport in a taxi is a rookie mistake!😂

[@albevanhanoy]

The 3 ghost points will hurt...

[@theconqueringram5295]

Man, losing your passport would be the worst case scenario.

[@Tundethelegend]

Absolutely love this

[@lukexu7256]

13:20 how did they book the flight without his passport?

[@snako3338]

It is interesting to me that the Race vids get less views than the News vids by far, since I for one only subsribed because of that But thinking about it News probably reach a more generic and wide audience while the Race is relatively specific Please do something like that again even if the views are bad :)

[@therstn]

Deutsche Bahn messing up TLDR News after jetlag 🤣

[@justmeajah]

Damnnnn the wrong address drama is sooooo amazing!!! I missed this in Amazing Race

[@pd1596]

Haha love how you worked out the blunder 😂😂

[@xamwright]

I’ve already watched this on nebula, but I’m gonna watch it again on KZbin!

[@Han80837]

Deutsche Bahn should never be trusted

[@Lemonaitor]

Having been to copenhagen earlier this year, I don't understand why Ben's team took the metro from Copenhagen station when the trains are even 10 or 15 minutes? and take like 15 minutes? the metro must have taken at least half an hour

[@MengSabei86]

Oooh man, I'm still so sad that I missed you in munich 😞

[@Banigoat]

Great content as always

[@BolphesarusMaximusWardius]

I will see the whole series while my order is still yet to arrive several months after purchase.

[@inarahey]

This is amazing - so fun to watch!

[@molequ0356]

Why did no-one just rent a car and drive through all the destinations?

[@lucas1984]

It's against the rules. They explained this in the Nebula discussion.

[@swewiking432]

[@MrFahrenheit9]

Yup, don't trust DeutscheBahn to be on time + use 1-hour Umsteigen on the DB navigator

[@NY-DC-LA]

This really is so much fun to watch.

[@mndrew1]

2 questions: How the hell do you lose a passport in the middle of a trip? Would you have needed a passport if not for Brexit? (i.e. can you blame Boris Johnson)

[@peterfireflylund]

Yes, because the UK was never in the Schengen Zone. Even if it had been, they would still need some form of photo id -- doesn't have to be a passport, could be a driving license for example. Electricity bills and gas bills don't count ;)

[@petertaylor4980]

Technically they would have needed a passport. However, on non-air routes checking was sometimes lax. My grandad went from England to France for D-Day commemorations one year and only discovered at the UK border on the way back that he'd taken my late grandma's passport by mistake. He was allowed back in eventually on the strength of his WWII military ID document!

[@JaisalTanna-awsomeperson]

There is one host that made me fall in love with the channel - and want them to win!

[@oliverpolak6761]

why do you copy someones idea without mentioning the yt chanel that made this idea (im talking abt jetlag) so if you dont wanna get striked but yt then i recomend asking jet lag for permission and mentioning them in the first link

Bring back TLDR USA. You said you would give it a second chance and barely made any content for it. It's such a good channel.

I thought they did few videos on it, and that's their second chance.

What about all of the other customers that you don’t go to… their deliveries will be late. 👍👍👍

[@Sturmlied]

What is this talk about hotels? Seriously? 30 hours in the competition and they want to waste time and money on a good nights sleep? Suck it up buttercup. Power naps on trains, planes and anywhere else where you have time for it! Coffee and energy drinks for the rest. After that they have time to crash! ;)

[@jeffrey6124]

[@jipjonnie9088]

My science brain immediately started working the moment this game started. If I was there, and I knew in advance how the game would work, I would try to write a program to calculate the optimal route for both points and money. All you'd have to do is input the destinations and the time you start going and the program would do the rest. Would that be cheating? I know it would take all the fun out of it, but you would most likely win. Think brains over brawn😂

[@usernameusername4037]

way too many unpredictable variables - delays, cancellations, losing your passport, other teams getting there first, etc - would def need an adaptable strategy to not catastrophically collapse... plus it's way easier said than done to write a program to consider every single travel option between even just two points (factoring in possible walking/biking/driving/etc time as well that isn't timetabled - how would you know how long it takes to get from the airport to some house, for example?)

[@jipjonnie9088]

@@usernameusername4037 and that would be the joy of making the program. To see the adaptability come to life. Make sure the program would be able to adapt to real time delays and charge the plan to still be optimal. To change strategy based on available data, such as another team on your tail. Of course I would only be happy about that after I've thrown my pc out the window multiple times because coding that would be a terrible mess, I've been through that before, but it would be fun to see it actualy work, hypotheticaly.
