I am surprised your actual last name is "Beat." That's cool, it seems like a stage name.

I didn't know you were 100% Filipino

Hiya Matt... I disagree that no one in the future is not going to remember (or miss) you. You have that spark of greatness. There is that inquisitiveness (from you) that comes from the heart and your genius. Hang in there, Buddy! 🤪 (By the way, you would make a great Senator).

Mr. Beat: Alright, I'm scrolling to where the guesses were. "Mr. Beat, please be Chinese." Mr. Beat: Alright, I'm scrolling back down.

Thanks for the video Mr. Beat! Lots of topics! Nice casual style and you kept things moving. :-)

With regards to white privilege and racism. I once was boarding a plane in Iceland flying to America. Everyone in the queue was white apart from three black Muslim teenage girls in front of me. I'm cheap, I buy the worst seats on the plane so the majority of people had boarded already without any problem. The first black teenage girl reaches the checkpoint. The officer looks up and says "you have been randomly selected for an extra security check" and the three black girls are moved to one side. An anecdote I know, but it always stands out in my mind.

I saw a man walking into the Olympics carrying a nylon bag with fibreglass poles sticking out. I said "Are you a pole-vaulter?" He replied "No I am Cherman, but how did you know my name is Valter?"

Your videos brighten my day. Thank you for doing what you do

Pretty cool. My results would probably be all over the place.

Results at 33:17

Congratulations on the scandinavian heritage, that is some good DNA right there

Thanks for the pre-results statements. We are all human and it’s nice to remember that 😃

Your email address was showing in a tab when you were showing the results

I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS !!!!

What amazes me is that i can trace my ancestry back to my 26th great grandfather while some people have to take an ancestry dna test to find out where they came from thats just weird when you think about it

You kind of look like my seventh grade science teacher Lol

I love your videos.

I usually hate live stream, but this was interesting! way to beat the stereotype!

Humm..I have 'peach' tone as well. Guess we are just 'peachy king'. 😊 Isnt that just peachy? 😊

Cool. Although my results showed that I am basically English, Irish and Scandinavian but did get 2 percent Asian.

Assuming your family lore about Eastern Europe is correct, these results could be a good segue to talk about the history of Eastern Europe, especially as it pertains to Viking conquests of the region.

Another interesting up𝕓𝕖𝕒𝕥 video! I have almost the same ethnic background some British, mostly Irish and Prussian. My family was unable to trace my mother's grandfather beyond the East Prussian passport. Since you are a history guy, I'll share more with you. His passport said he was Lutheran, but he never talked about Prussia and never went to church. I took a German history class in grad school and found out more about that area. My great grandfather's name, depending on the spelling, could be German, Polish, Russian, Jewish or Lithuanian. That area was included in the Polish Lithuanian Commonwealth [or Empire]. However, during the19th Century the Prussians had a pre-holocaust called the Kulturkampf, in order to follow Martin Luther's directive to convert the Jews. I suspect that my ancestor was a victim of the Kulturkampf, but he only spoke and wrote German. As you say, it doesn't matter, though it's interesting because of the history of the area.

I remember when I got my results, it was really interesting.

Can you do midterm elections as a lead up for 2020?

Shout out to Mrs.Beat

Missed the stream because I watched Toy Story 4 :(

it shouldn't be offensive to assume someone's ancestry is northern European, however to assume they are a lesser human being because of whatever pigment levels in their skin, is offensive and I wish we could get this bend in the road navigated and over with!

On a totally unrelated note. I spy that Ibanez back there, as a guitar player as well. What kind of music do you like/play? Unless it's not yours I guess.... lol

Damn i guessed you were a Vulcan.

It surprises me that you don’t take more interest in ancestry considering you are a history teacher and you make history and geography videos! I know ancestry doesnt matter much but I find it interesting myself. Each to his own!

I would love to take one of these tests, but I have a feeling I wouldn't get the degree of accuracy that I desire. Europe has 607 regions mapped and Asia only has 12... so... sucks to be Asian lol. :(

Wow that’s mostly the same as mine how strange, strange....

you look almost exactly like this polish guy I work with, so I'll guess polish

A fellow Swede!

Oh wow that’s weird I took an ancestry test not too long ago as well, hmmm...

City Council and local offices matter a lot to daily life including your taxes, programs, policing etc. School board is another.

King Gizzard is pretty good. You should give them one more chance.

I am 75% Irish, and the rest is French-Canadian and Native American.

The percentages really don't matter, unless you know the details. Mine shows Scottish, Irish, etc. but the maps when viewing - it shows Brittiay, and Normandy. Even the English portion pointed to Northern France. Confusing portion is the Celtic portion of history. Of course it does not matter in the long run. Great job. I did lasic, lasted 20 years. I really don't regret it.

I actually took an ancestry test because I wanted to know once and for all what my background was considering I’ve heard people surmise bout this on my behalf and other experiences, (like possibly having Native American ancestry) then my dad had darker features a bit. I’ve been told a few times like “u look jewish” and it made me really curious. I was sort of hoping maybe I was related to the Merovingians as well something interesting. I’m “jewish” lololol...my dad was “white” actually, but I dunno...plus my dad was adopted which only lead to further curiosity.

Que extraño el titulo del canal viene en Español

What would happen if you rub your dogs cheek? Just to keep the testers honest and make sure they aren’t making stuff up...

It seemed that you said mostly Eastern Europe. Vikings from Scandinavia raided & some settled in Ireland, Scotland & England. So that is where your Norway & Sweden genes come from.

I'm half with you on people's obsession with their heritage. I 1,000% agree with it being weird that people take any pride in it or hinge any of their own identity on it. However, I do find it really interesting to follow your heritage just for the story and events that led up to you in the present, just out of curiosity and the historical story of it. Basically I find it super interesting in the same way I find any story of historical people and events and how/where it went through time interesting. I don't find it to be any source of pride or identity though, and I think it's silly that some people do. I had nothing to do with it to be proud of, and it has no influence on what I do with my own life. I do find it funny though how your wife got you a gift, and in return you made an hour-long stream about how much you don't care about it and how underwhelming it was lmao. xD

make a video about composers

I'm mostly English, Irish, Scottish, German, Italian, French, Swedish, and Russian. Almost completely caucasian. Which makes me privileged. Kind of unfortunate that we live in a world like this.

I start learn english，can not understand completely what are you talking.....but I think it is fun😂

did it say anything about America

I do like your name. You should get some royalties from the head phones.

Edinbruie vs Glasgow vidio

Most people dont feel the need to defend structural elements of a country until someone tries to change it, like the electoral college. I can see the wisdom behind it.

I --AM NOT A PIG.... DAD'S SIDE-ENGLISH , MOM'S SIDE GERMAN & SOME POLISH .

you should try 23Andme

I am a mutt. I have so many different bloodlines that it just makes me native American because I was born here🤗💖

You say that people should not dismiss people because they are fans of the president but that doesn’t mean that those fans should be called “some of the coolest people ever” especially with what you about them swarming you regarding the Electoral College.

I get mostly northwestern Europe, and Germanic Europe.

Epic

I like history

It's a travesty that these views are so low

I thought Mr. Beat was Gypsy

The people in the camps at the border wont forget about it in a couple of weeks.

Anything Wrong?

Probably from the vikings

You are looking like a typical Germanic human

how come not American

I agree, be proud of what you do and what people you know and care about do. You don't have ownership of your ancestors or their actions, so the pride is kinda just masturbation.

it said nothing about America

Mr Beat you're mainly English, it's not a biggie but England is ok and we're mostly democratic, so all good

Hi Matt, due to losing half of your ancestors' DNA with each successive generation, many of your ancestors' DNA is completely lost. So it's quite possible that your native American DNA has been lost in the shuffle.

I'm 1% native american

like most Americans you mostly English with a bit German Dutch French and Irish

I'm mostly Iberian and Italian.

I disagree, kansas state is better 😄

Now you annoyed me with your white privilege argument. Its 2021 not 1968. If i have the choice of hiring a nice clean cut well spoken hard working Black person or a sloppy, slacker white guy ill take the black guy any day. Its character and attitude that counts not color today. If anything today black privlege in college admissions or two people equally qualified and with presence one black one white applying for a job, all things being equal who do you think is likely to be first choice? And im ok with that but dont be a woke tool. I like you.

You sold out Mister beat you know we yeah I already mentioned it so you know I still stand by the selection series was one of the most amazing things on KZfaq You've totally sold out

Wow, you're white. Never would have guessed.

Interesting chat. "White privilege" only exists if the person doing the judging or making the decision is a racist. So while it is someone else causing it, the person being judged is blamed so that makes the person who is judged in this case a victim. It inextricably ties the unsuspecting person to the racist. It is how most victims are treated. They dont get to pick who singles them out and cant control that they get blamed. They certainly dont get to pick what skin tone of features they are born with either. What is worse is that "white" covers many groups with disparate cultures, similar to what the latinx label does and what "black" does. It also puts the onus on the judged person to behave in a different way than anyone would when being treated well such as the need to apologize.
