So I returned to Ulm, to ask questions the British have sent me to ask the Germans yes Brexit came up. As I thought but the reaction was so much better than I thought I would have got! I loved meeting all of you lot, I really hope we meet again maybe in the street again.

Fun fact: the UK national anthem used to be the German national anthem , too (until 1918). Not all that surprising if you think about the close family ties between the Royals, though. (Queen Victoria was Emperor Wilhelm II's grandmother)

As an American, I believe British royalty is something only women love because it incorporates the fairy tales of princes and princesses. It has all the romance and now gossip most of us guys find boring and a big waste of time. My wife just loved it all. Couldn’t get enough of it. This attitude I believe is world wide.

Yep. I lived with two german students when I was at uni, AND I worked in a factory making what we laughably refer to as "bread" over one summer. Because of that, I own a bread machine and make my own. The best thing is, not only do you not eat what is essentially a high fat low nutrient bread that's only any good as somewhere to put butter, but you never need to worry about air fresheners because your home always smells AMAZING!

German folk have hearts of gold. I can never understand how they constantly get labelled as dull and rude. My question, or should I say series of questions to German's is just about linguistics... 1. Can you opt out of learning English in the German education system. 2. How often do you speak English in your day to day routine? 3. All German's sound the same to me😂😂, do you have drastically different sounding accents in your country? Like Cockney and Scouse in England or New Yorker accent and Texan drawl?

Most of Germany dont speak a Lot. But are surroundet by english language (music, TV, Commercial) usually it depends on your Job.. 3. There are thousands of accents. North Germans Sounds totally different to south Germans ans east to West. And often there ist a different accent inside a local area..

Germans know much more about Britain because they are true Europeans with a better educated population in general. German people also seem much more pragmatic and interested in collective welfare. It is a hard thing to see how angry, blind and bigoted so many of the British people have become and I really do think education is the key. It seems a lack of critical thinking and human empathy lies behind this. I am British by birth this time and my heart expands with love toward our German friends. People forget that evil can and does rise everywhere if we let it. God alone knows how we are going to sort out this Brexit folly though.🙏 Hilfe!

Left side driving comes from the old days where streets were full of riders. Getting on and off a horse is more common on the left side and riders didnt want to step into traffic for that. At one point cars mixed in and they just kept the way they did it. Like why the US is still on the emperial system despite the fact that the whole world is on metric. But the very funny thing about the US imperial system, it is by law defined in metric units...^^

Questions for the Brits: 1. Why did you invent the “continental breakfast” and blame a whole continent (of which your island is part, by the way) of very diverse countries with very diverse culinary traditions for this abomination? 2. Why have you neglected your seaside towns so badly? The first German seaside holiday places were modelled on UK towns (visit Norderney and the architecture looks like Brighton). But while German seaside towns are upmarket, well kept, surrounded by pristine nature and packed with German tourists that worship the North Sea even when the rain blows horizontally, their British equivalents have headed in the opposite direction. Why? Socks&Sandals: The older generation wears them for the same reason as my 8yo: It’s practicality over style! You head out early in the morning while it’s still chilly with socks and take them off in lunch break, when it’s hot.

@@magmalin The thing with sandals and socks is a stereotype we have, as some Germans do actually wear such things. Dying in the Alps because of bad footwear isn't a stereotype, I've never claimed that. Also there are different types of bad footwear, like sneakers, house shoes (yes, some people wear those) and also tracking shoes, not just the stereotypic sandals, I know. Fact is that many people think that a mountain isn't dangerous, but there is a good reason why most mountains in Austria were first climbed by non natives. The natives always had respect for them and didn't want to risk their lives just to have a good view. The Alps are just as harsh a desert.

I think the socks and sandals question required context. If you ask do Germans wear sandals inside the home and take off their outdoor shoes outside. The answer is a resounding yes in my experience. As opposed to. Do Germans wear socks and sandals outside. Perhaps some from the older generation, like in the UK. Great video and great people.

I always acknowledge it when foreign tourists try to speak German and then answer slowly, clearly and as simply as possible. (This certainly distinguishes me from people who do not speak a foreign language themselves and therefore mistakenly think that because they understand a foreigner, he also understands their mumbled cockney). I would only answer in English or French if I had the impression that strangers misunderstood me. In fact, if you live in the country and speak to Germans in German, you can also get very far very quickly in learning German.

I feel like our bread is different, because we use it differently. Here in the UK, bread is mainly for toast or a closed sandwich, so it has to be softer and not so dense. Most germans I know use bread to accompany something else, as a snack, or as an open sandwich, so they just have one slice at a time. We do know what "proper" bread is, but we just have our preferred way to use it. (I do love a sourdough cob though)

It depends on each area. Some UK areas have their transport together and it's well organised. I've been to some rural areas that have really impressed me with the ease of getting around. I've also been to some rural areas that are impossible to travel in without your own car or bike. It's all about money. If it's a tourist hotspot, there will be better chances of transport. If it's some tiny village in the arse end of nowhere then good luck finding a bus to get there! Trains are a shit-show! I would have to sell my kidneys and my first born child to afford train tickets in the UK if I want to go further than 50 miles.

My question is: Why are the Brits (seemingly) so obsessed with comparing themselves in a competing manner with us? It feels to me like whenever Germany gets mentioned in UK news, sports, documentaries or even comedy there is a deep rooted rivalry towards Germany whereas here the focus is on Italy, France and the Netherlands (especially in football) when looking for comparisons/ rivalries whereas the UK is mostly just checked as a bit weird, nice but overall rather obscure in comparison to those stoned cheese heads, smelly frog eaters and overdramatic spaghetti munchers. The contrast of seemingly deep rooted rivalry to rather indifferent fondness always baffles me when encountering British media, especially around world cups when our blood pressure rises at anything orange or Italian but any English speaking advertisement (even in Canada) seems to be obsessed with England versus Germany
