The guy in the car isn't German, he's from the UK. He lives in Germany with his German girlfriend. In the shorts he describes German habits in a satirical way. Super funny to see him doing it (German here)

I love Gurkensalat

The Schleim expression makes more sense when you consider the verb "schleimen". Sucking up to someone, trying to impress him in a greasy, slick, slimy way means "sich bei ihm einschleimen" - literally "sliming up to him, greasing yourself into his good graces".

cucumber salad is a big thing here in Germany, either with vinegar and oil, or yoghurt / crème fraîche seasoned with dill, tarragon and chives

It's really nice to meet up with Ryan every day in his kid's room and chill out watching Germany-related videos that US Americans sometimes have a hard time understanding.

Additional information on the bridge demolition: there were houses nearby, so that the bridge had to fall down perfectly. Only 1.5 meters on each side were allowed as „additional landing place“. The houses nearby were also protected by shipping containers, that were filled with water (I think) and they put lots of soil as a „pillow“ on the ground to protect everything around as well.

Moinsen from Germany :) I think the biggest givaway of the "German" bar/café (which heavily leans on bavarian culture) are the ceiling fans, which are extremely uncommon in Germany xD

8:30 i love how that guy explains german in english with mandarin subtitles Also, yes cucumbersalads like that are a thing.

Cucumber salad ("Gurkensalat") is quite common in Germany. There are 2 types of dressings: with cream and dill or with vinegar and oil.

To get a drivings license here in germany is literally quite hard compared to other countrys,especially in the US. Our license is also acknowledged by over 150 countrys worldwide. Funny enough im doing my license right now.

Exactly guessed! That sign is a temporary sign they put up when there was a sudden roadblock like an accident or a dangerous jam. You can see the official orange Road-construction-car behind it that carries the sign. They can also display lots of different things if needed

The cucumber salad is a real thing, there are some variations on the dressing, though all I've had up to this day have been delicious.

Ryan most of us call it Meckes 😂 tho maccies is certainly a way to say it

Aah! That bridge was blown up SO close to where I live and it's on my route to my workplace too! Well, it was.

Cucumber salad definitely is a thing. Its mostly done with cucumber slices, oil/vinegar, dill and other herbs like parsely. Some people sweeten it but I dont like that

Statistically, Germany has one of the fewest traffic fatalities in the European Union (World's 12th safest country in %), although germany is the only country without a speed limit (on parts of the highway). Thanks again for your entertaining video :-)

The road sign is mobile. At the time, the bushes along the roadside were being trimmed.

To drink "Klopfer" is very german. 😂 I mean that booze in that German Brauhaus in that tiny bottles. It is very important to put the bottle cap on your nose (!). They are tasting aweful and they guarantee you a headache

Some of the German drivers go to the car as Dr. Jekyll and become Mr. Hyde at the wheel. Then they behave like agressive beasts. After getting out they are again the nice neighbor from next door.

Gurkensalat beste schwöre

The ceiling ventilators give away that the beer hall is not in Germany :)

I eat different kinds of cucumber salad several times a month. With oil and vinegar, with different salad dressings or with yogurt, dill, salt and pepper... So yes I would say cucumber salad is a thing here in Germany. You will also always get it at fast food restaurants etc..

He found the Elevator Boys (second clip), that's so funny

"BMW coming out swimming.." **CRUNCH**

I never once called McDonalds "Maccies" I sometimes call it "Macces".

Glad you got another sponser! Congratz

Der gute alte Gurkensalat

"Das Pferd frisst keinen Gurkensalat" was the first sentence ever transmitted by phone in 1861. (The horse does not eat cucumber salad.)

you read the sign correctly: cunstruction ahead,right lane ends,merge to the left.

I say McDoof for McDonalds, meaning McStupid.

Never heard someone saying 'Maccies'. And I´m German :D

As someone who has been on german highways alot (i live in austria) i can tell that we get very annoyed when theres a construction on the road, and also that car crash simulation is a game called beamng drive

"Every car enthusiast wants a 911." Seems to be true. I once saw a whole group of Americans with 911 signs saying they'd never forget.

The car simulator game is actually from like 2012, but now a lot of tiktokers make videos with it. It looks so new because it’s getting constant updates. The game is called beamng drive

Gurkensalat (Cucumber Salad) is one of the german salads, wich are made like "Add much much mayonese to an ingredient and now it is a salad!". We do this with Noodles and Sausages, too :D

The "Old German Beerhall" in Milwaukee looks more "typically Bavarian", not "typically German" (Yeah, still differences between Bavaria and the rest of Germany) ;) One thing I would count for whole Germany: It's much too bright in there. Our bars are more "gemütlich" (cozy, placid, snug) from the light used there. It looks more like a beer tent on Oktoberfest or a turkish living room than a German bar.

Ryan, I'm so proud that you pronounced Porsche correctly. GG

Jaja... HelloFresh, die leckerste Abo-Falle: Das Essen ist echt gut, die Rezepte sind lecker. Nee, andersrum natürlich: Die Pappzettel schmecken nicht... Aber wenn man dann mal keine Lieferung haben möchte, kann man nur pausieren, aber nicht ganz abbestellen (ausser komplett zu kündigen). Irgendwann ist die Pause zuende, man denkt schon gar nicht mehr dran, und zack: Steht ein Paket von HelloFresh vor der Tür und eine weitere Lastschrift wurde abgebucht. Und es kam bei uns sogar schon vor, dass wir zwar in der App pausiert hatten, die Änderung aber komischer Weise nicht im System ankam. Wenn man sich dann am PC einloggte, war keine Pause verzeichnet. Und das war dann die nächste ungewollte Box, inkl Lastschrift. Auch wenn es echt lecker war: Fraglich ist diese Praxis schon etwas...

In my Region Schleimscheißer is just negativ word for a kid. And What he means is called a Schleimer!

Remove the ceiling fans and the tv screens and it might pass as a German beerhall.

7:01 They are drinking "Kleiner Feigling". It's a very popular fig liqueur. And for some reason it's some kind of tradition to knock the bottle on the table a few times before you open and drink it.

They are clapping because nothing of the rubble parts hit the house next to the bridge

cucumber and potato salads are very wide-spread in germany and also the best kinds of salads.

Cucumber salat is pretty common here servend to bbq for example the recipe shown is with Crème Fraîche,dill.. I like a oil and vinegar dressing instead

The bridge that was blown up was on a very important north-south highway in Germany. It was not very old, completed only in 1968. But the traffic, also with heavy trucks, has increased extremely. Many bridges that are only 50 years old are dilapidated and have to be blown up. This is a huge problem for the German infrastructure.

Cucumber salad is a real thing and goes great with potatoes, fried fish and a glass of Riesling white wine.

10:40 It was the _Rahmedetalbrücke_ in my city of birth... _Lüdenscheid_ It has to been demolished, because it was so heavily damaged, that the *Autobahn* A45 has been closed for more then 1 and a half year. And it is a very important connection between the west of germany with the south-west.

6:32 funfact HB stands for "Hofbräuhaus" the brewery of the (bavarian) king's court and they make amazing food! if you visit munich .. a must visit ("Hofbräuhaus" or "Hofbräukeller" [different location same owner])

My favorite pub even serves a cucumbersalad-cocktail! And it tastes way better than it sounds xD

My guy is so integrated, he even gets German HelloFresh codes.

Cucumber Salad (Gurkensalat) Is 100% a Thing here in Germany.

Cucumber salad is fucking amazing. and yes it is an actual thing here

the Beer is "Münchner Hofbräu" and according to the Bierindex it is ranked as Drinkable. The use of the "kleiner Feigling" (fig schnapps) is correct. the TV should be showing FC Bayern but at least, the sticker is there.

Yeah you finally get sponsorships, you completely earned it.

The bridge demolition with controlled blast was amazing, until they were told it’s the wrong one

Cucumber salad can be awesome. My dad makes the best 😅

Ich liebe es wenn er TikTok’s kuckt

My Grandma actually lives near the bridge and I visit her so I saw the explosion live.

Mixed salad, cucumber salad, tomato salad, we have even carrot salad. Speaking of which, have you ever tried carrot cake?

2:42 It's not only animated, it also yells at you over CB radio channel 9: "Achtung Gefahrenstelle!! - Uwaga strefa niebezpieczna". Nevertheless, these things are the most dangerous place on the construction site. They are always new because they don't get old. On the A2, they hung behind rental trucks because they have fully comprehensive insurance and are cheaper than a Unimog.

You would feel safe driving with a German, because over here you spend so many hours learning how to drive with a driving instructor (and it's quite the investment...) The thing they are doing to the small liquor bottles ("Feigling") is tradition and it's why these mini-bottles are called "Klopfer" (translates to "knocker") the rest of that clip ... let's say it's more accurate than most other American things I have seen branded German. Cucumber salad is a thing, my German grandma just uses a dressing of cream, vinegar dill, (sometimes chives or finely chopped onion) salt and pepper and it is delicious.

The German bar looked like someone had one day to decorate 2 containers kitschy and then hang up a few TVs.

Okay, how do you NOT know about the deliciousness of cucumber salad

Auf dieser Brücke bin ich oft gefahren, unter ihr her auch einige Male, ich freue mich auf die neue Brücke, die dahin kommen wird 😉😉😉

its eihter "Mekkes" or "Restaurant zur goldenen Möwe" (Restaurant to the golden seagull)

Of course the bridge explosion in Lüdenscheid was trending on TikTok, of course xD That bridge has been the bane of the area's existence. Good ridance, let's hope there will be a solution for the infrastructure situation here soon.

Cucumber salat is awesome. And incredibly easy

So, at least here in eastern Germany, cucumber salad is THE thing :D I work in a small food company and one of our biggest products is actually cucumber salad :) i don't know anyone here around who doesn't eat it. Everyone has their own recipe, but my grandma makes the best one ;D

Sure there are bars like that.

The cucumber salad is very much a thing. Often served with lot's of lemon juice mixed in.

congrats to your sponsoring!

Slimeshitter isn't as random as it sounds. One (derogatory) verb for "brownnosing" in German is "to slime" (the idea is that you're lying so disgustingly, your lies are covering the other person in slime). We used to say "Don't slip!" if someone was brownnosing too much, because they were sliming so much they'd figuratively leave a trail of slime.

Cucumber salad is definitely a thing in Germany! .... although I only know it without any creamy dressing, just cucumber with minced onions and a dressing of vinegar, oil, sugar, pepper and salt.

The simulation is the Game BeamNG Drive...and yeah its quiet realistic in terms of damage models

the German beer hall was almost on point... but the beer gotta have at least 2in Schaumkrone (foam crown)

Gurkensalat ist hier sehr verbreitet, auch ohne "Hello Fresh" 😂. Meine Oma hat immer wenn Gäste im Haus waren folgendes gemacht: Große Schüsseln mit Kartoffelsalat, Nudelsalat und natürlich auch Gurkensalat! Der Opa hat dann Rollbraten (Sehr gut gewürzt mit Zwiebeln, Knoblauch und Schinken eingerollt in der Mitte) gemacht und der wurde dann mit 1-2 Scheiben Brot aufgetischt. Den Salat hat sich dann jeder selbst mit einem Löffel 🥄 auf den Teller gemacht. 🥒 Jeder nach seiner Fasson! (Ein Spruch von alten Fritz). Lg Kai aus Deutschland

The highway bridge demolition in my city was celebrated enthusiastically. For the past year and a half, the entire highway had been redirected through the city center, causing inconvenience and frustration. Now, the hope is that the construction of the new bridge will proceed swiftly, allowing normalcy to return as soon as possible.

as an human of the female species -I appreciate it too 😂😂😂❤ - precise work 👏 Love from Austria/Europe 🇦🇹

I almost burned my kitchen down to ashes along with the entire house by forgetting I had a pot of water on the stove. ^^' I feel you on this one. ^^

10:49 das ist bei mir in der nähe bei Lüdenscheid..die brücke musste abgerissen werden...wird nun neu gebaut weil auf der brücke eine autobahn war ...aber dadurch das der verkehr zunimmt ..ist die brücke stark beschädigt worden und wird gerade neu gebaut...😊..

I have never heard the term "Maccies" for McDonald's. But we call it McDoof which translates to McStupid.

definitely cucumber salat is a thing here in Germany :D

nailed that sponsor-clip! nice video, have a good one! cheers ;)

what they are doing at the bar when they hammering on the table ... thats a drink called "Klopfer" in english knocker. There is a number under the bottle and u have to knock as often as the number is saying.

cucumber salad is a big thing here, yes! very yummy

0:13 OMG! Hallway reveal

my mom would make the cucumber salad with shredded cucumbers so you can spoon your salad ;) i still make it the same way

The cucumber salad or Gurkensalat as it's called is legit

Yes, the cucumber salad is a thing, sometimes with mayonnaise or with vinegar and oil, but always with dill.

Gurkensalat is a real thing

I gotta say Hello Fresh portions are tiny, it appears they are portions for kids. Maybe i am not doing them justice but its 2023, we are used to bigger meals.

Gurkensalat is very delicious You can put in optional things to if you want like onions for example

12:03 the sign is when the road is blocked or something and you have to go on the other road

You say porsche like a german 😍

Funny, an "Old German Beerhall" in the USA lookes like an american sportsbar in germany. Just without the TVs.

Did your ad say you’d get 90 years off your first shipment of Hello Fresh? If so that’s their best ad ever!

Ryan du bist der schönste Mann alive 😍

Cucumber salad is awsome, it is super juicy and fresh. Perfect for a hot summer day.

Yes the sign is digital on a trailer or car of the road maintenance department. It says: slow down to 80 because the left lane The left lane is closed and flows into the middle lane. And the other drivers on the other lanes: be cautious and let the other drivers in!
