Of course. Everytime you guys refer to the Americans it's fun and friendly and not at all condescending 😂

Ich bin auch deutsch❤😂 Thanks for 100 likes❤❤

@@HanQuokkaie heyyyy 💗💗

@@gachabear1616 heyyy💗

Why should anyone talk in a friendly way about the USA in the first place? They are so involved in everything bad in the world 😂😂​@@breef.8599

The silence seems much more respectful

The silence would kill me. As an American we love noise and thrive off good energy. This crowd was boring

I like how you explained that. I could tell that crowd was impressed.

AS an Austrian I confirm that opinion. We ar quiet because we do not want to disturb your concentration 💪👍😁

​@@KinGDesertEagle00we love silence too much noice is exhausting for me

Really? So why did Koi say they were giggling and pointing at his teammates and shushing them? That doesn't seem respectful to me at all. Shame on them. There are many apologists in the comments saying its a sign of respect, but giggling, pointing and shushing is disrespectful and outright rude.

@@mygirldarby you want to see something which is not there. Basically you are saying that the German audience was racist and because of that nobody applauded. But after the performance the whole audience applauded. That leaves two options…either the audience was not racist but kept their mouths shut not to distract the athlete during the performance , or the audience was racist, but only during the performance and afterwards they wanted to fool the athlete with fake applause. What is more likely?

​@@AKI-pn5yl don't even bother trying to educate this one in logical thinking. I've read multiple of their comments reacting to other people explaining it was a sign of respect. And all they kept saying was basically "na-ah, I don't believe you" 🙄

@@ssgtblackmamba7991 I am sure you are right. Thanks

​@@AKI-pn5yl how did you read them thinking it's racism into that comment? Am I missing something? They never said it was racist

I don’t think cheering crowds or teammates are trying to make it “their moment”. They’re making someone else’s moment a bit more memorable

@@isitoveryet9525I get that, I just think it's a cultural difference. We were always being taught that you're not supposed to disrupt an athelete during their routine by being loud, but I also see how your teams + audiences support can really help someone and make their moment more special. Doesn't mean one way is better than the other, we were just taught to see it a bit differently :)

Exactly.

​@@isitoveryet9525I think loud crowds ARE trying to infringe and make it about themselves. I like this quiet watching. It's respectful to an athlete's need to concentrate.

That's exactly it! A sign of respect and so they can concentrate on their routine. He did so well! Kudos to him. 👍❤👍

Excellent point. Thank you for sharing that!

Ok now I understand

Absolutely, it’s respectful to watch all the competitors. I remember the Olympics in America. I thought the Americans were so disappointing and disrespectful shouting and booing. I suppose different cultures…..

did not know artistic cycling was a thing, it's cool!

@@lavishgoblin glad you think so, it's really cool, not a lot of people are aware it exists, I wish someday more would know :>

In Germany there is one sport we're people are loud and annoying and that is football.

I am an artistic cyclist as well! I never thought I would ever meet another one on here

Lmfao artistic cyclist

That's and showing respect for the sportsman

Then why did Koi say they were giggling at his teammates and shushing them? Thst doesn't sound respectful.

@@mygirldarby if the American team did this ‚cheering‘ during other routines, they might well have been shushed because in Germany that is a sign of disrespect, yelling during the actual performance

@@mygirldarby the giggling might have more to do with how insanely loud and obnoxious the cheering seems to a German. Same as Koi was disheartened by the respectful silence… These are cultural differences

@@mygirldarbycause they think they don’t know the etiquette. It’s funny and embarrassing in a little way.

Not as loud and annoying as the Americans 😂

Not all Americans are loud and annoying 🙄 some of us are quiet, but you don’t hear us.

@@user-lt1jd1ye3v but those in crowds are.

​Rude

You seem like a mean person 😟 idk... Maybe stop surfing the crowd on hating on every little thing Americans do and just live your life? It's quite frustrating, nobody will defend against people who always say "Oh, Americans are ______" and I can't explain it as well as others can but I feel my heart ache whenever I see people text these things, calling us annoying and assuming we're all like that. I can't even defend against it because I feel I don't have the right to do it because my country is considered "Annoying and Wrong, Full of fat people, Evil gun lovers, and we have no culture:(" everyone likes making fun of Americans, I find people comparing us even in videos that don't involve us! And then there are other Americans saying that their country is terrible and how other countries are so great and how they would have preferred to live there instead(basically glorifying or glazing every other country ((especially Japan and Korea)) and talking bad about their own country.) Everything is just so frustrating because everyone has one mindset, America is Bad, stupid, fat, gun maniacs and they have no culture, have never invented something original and are just rude people:( sometimes I blame the Karen compilations in America.

True we stay quiet and admire the show provided

​@quin7117 really? Koi said the crowd was giggling, pointing and shushing his teammates for supporting him. That's not respectful. Germans are very well aware that Americans support each other vocally during athletic performances. They were rude to the Americans.

@@mygirldarbybut you’re not in America…

​@@mygirldarbyYou are very judgemental. 1. Not everybody knows that it's common in America, I would say almost no one knows it, maybe a few people. 2. They weren't giggling because of disrespect, but because they don't know this kind of behavior and maybe that's why they giggled. They didn't laugh at them. Did you never had a giggling reaction when something is happening with what you feel uncomfortable? Thats the reason, why some of them giggled and some of them tried to "shush" them. Because for them it's rude to be loud, maybe they thought they were distracting him. You should be nicer and try to understand people's behaviors instead of being so judgmental. I am sure there were no bad intentions behind it. They also clapped in the end and liked his performance.

​@@mygirldarbyAlso you could say the same. It was not in America, so you could also show respect to the land you come in. If he was the only one performing in this moment, ok. But if other ones performed at the same moment it could have been very distracting for them, because for them its not normal. You should always look at different sides and not find things to complain about.

(I am from Germany) just to know🙈

Yea I don't get how this helps, hearing your name called causes your brain to open an auxiliary consciousness stream. Normally that's irrelevant, but when doing such an extreme concentration activity like acrobatics, maybe it's not the best idea. Especially since it's such low IQ mouth noise. "cmon bert", "you're on the bars, bert" Yes, he fucking knows.

@@hansolo631 I don’t do a performance sport like gymnastics so maybe it depends, but I have played several team sports, and for me, hearing my name and cheers is motivating and not at all distracting. in fact, half the time, I don’t even hear the individual cheers because I am focused, but hearing noise comforts me and makes me feel supported 🤷🏽‍♀️

@@jrpunkin1 Yes, in Hockey, I'd rarely hear the crowd. But in this clip, they are in a completely silent gymnasium at point blank range. It's weird, it feels like trying to distract

@@hansolo631that’s not what people in the crowd intended at all

It also makes sense that, if Americans see something out in the wild, they blurt out like little children, while Europeans would watch in silence, not to disturb whatever is in front of them.

​@@Bamboule05Is it necessary to respond to an informative comment with bias and bigotry? Why some Europeans like you think you guys are the standard to the world is beyond me with your history.

@@vlhhill659 Don’t bring history into this… Your hands are not clean either!

@@soude85As an African American, MY hands are pristine. Black Americans have done nothing to anyone but fought for our own rights. I, more than you, am very well aware of the harm this country has done. But it was most of the European country who first starting the trans-atlantic slave trade, world War 1 and 2, and the colonization of other countries, particularly Africa. So again, like I said, stop acting as if Europe is the standard for etiquette and sophistication!

@@vlhhill659clock it sis

thing is, that we are not allowed to Clap or cheer in churches. Especially not in catholic ones. 😅 So normally the crowd is looking for the sign of the priest to start cheering. 😅

As someone who played in an orchestra, I want to say it's clear that the German way is objectively the correct one lol! No performer wants to hear audience noise even between movements (parts of the larger musical piece), let alone when we're actually playing!!

@@cosmicmuffin322 there's no "correct" and "incorrect" terms, it's just different cultures 😊 the video is an example how a person from another culture is confused by the silence, because he is from the culture where people cheer, so he expects cheering. If you expect silence and get silence - this means this culture fits you in this aspect (or maybe you are still in your home culture) 😊

​@user-ln8jg7oi7k If there's cheering in the middle of a song when there's a quiet moment, it is wrong in my opinion. How do people enjoy the song, when they miss the next bit, because the noise was covering it? The silence is there, because the one, who wrote the song, felt that it would enhance the next part, so clearly there shouldn't be noise during that part? If the cheering is between songs, then that's acceptable (well, not to me personally, I would hate it, but I would accept it, if I lived somewhere with that culture) but never during the song.

Was zu

Video:explains tittle You:selective

Trueeeee as a German I didn't see the problem😂 I guess I would be distracted if everybody was loud during the performance😂

​​@@ratisekgobela9The video's title is selective too since it disregards the cheering at the end. It just selects the other part. And it's either culturally ignorant or purposely misleading, making the viewers think that people were only silent during the American athlete's performance as opposed to it being the etiquette to wait with the cheering until after the routine. It implies a hostility or indifference on the part of the German audience that just wasn't there at all.

@@ratisekgobela9spot the American… 😂

@@thefirm4606American where?

So true! 😊

No one said a thing about disrespect.

I can understand why the culture there is like that. For us though, the audience cheering can be a source of energy for the competitors. Rather than being distracting, it can be helpful!

@@brandonm1708 Exactly, it's just a difference in cultures. I did comp cheer and I feel like if the crowd was always silent like this when we performed we would've felt like we were doing so bad lol, we genuinely thrived off of the crowd going crazy. It's such an adrenaline rush.

foreign competitions (as an american) seem kind of boring and insulting since no one cheers until the ends, like theyre not impressed with the routine. its the sportsmanlike thing to do in america and a way to show you're engaged with whats happening. silence means boring here

@@calacalamari3977 I think it’s comparable to music, with pop/rock concerts versus classical concert. Pop/rock concerts are all about hype, whereas classical ones are about being attentive and respect for the art form. 2 different ways to view the performance, both are good in their own ways

@@calacalamari3977well that’s what happens when you travel. things are done different in different places

I get the silence...but Americans are encouraging him thru performance....it's just a different way.... doesn't make it wrong or disrespectful.

@@gretaabdallah1114 That’s correct but Koi implied some form of disrespect by the audience in his title… He knows better yet he still did it.

I would be seriously pissed off if people WEREN'T quiet during a classical music recital, it's beyond bad manners to make any noise. I find the American customs of screaming and shouting during gymnastic routines most bizarre, I mean why would anyone do it?

In the U.S. a lot of our athletes are used to the noise and it even lifts some of their spirits to prepare! It is a social norm thought to stay silent at classical concerts as well as theater shows till either the song has ended or the show has ended depending on where you are!

@@morganzander5814 no one shouts during a dressage event, either… I think the college sport is the reason why so many athletes think immature behavior like demonstrated here is ‚uplifting‘ …feels more like Greek fraternity bro culture to me

Americans are way too convinced only their ways are ok. Or normal. It is some thing they need to grow up about. USA is not the best nor the place that dictate what “normal” is.

​@morganzander5814 Going to the movie theatre in the United States is ridiculous. At least the couple I've been to. Many people feel the need to not just laugh annoyingly loud, but lots feel they need to talk directly to the movie also. I've never seen so many audience members think that they were the ones who everyone paid to see. Any footage of concerts that I see from there, the people are screaming the lyrics ruining the experience. That's if they aren't just screeching at the top of their lungs.

Shout in the background “Let’s go BERT!!”

I prefer that

American here too, and I agree 100%

Exactly

It isn't respectful to point, giggle and shush the American teammates who are supporting Koi.

@@mygirldarbyit isn’t respectful to go to another country and not follow their customs. They shouldn’t have needed to shush them if they weren’t being disrespectful.

​@@Venus20000how is cheering for your teammate disrespectful?

​​It's kinda annoying when always ppl shouting you're name or making lout noises that myb u can't ​focus anymore. Idk lol. @@ratisekgobela9

He probably accused them of being racist.

It clearly felt weird for him though

@@SE-gs6gdok, well that's difference in culture. He's in Germany so that's how people act there. I'm Dutch but our behavior is quite similar to the Germans. I've been to the US and their behavior during performances etc made me uncomfortable lol. Again, difference in culture. A person who's visiting a country, should expect that and respect it also. The locals are not gonna change their behavior for you.

@@raiinzyy oh for sure. It’s just an observation. I would expect the same courtesy from people visiting the US

Do you point, giggle and shush other people who aren't conforming to your cultural norms out of respect? Koi called you out and now Germans are here pretending they were being respectful. 😅 Sorry. He made it clear in this video that your countrymen were anything but respectful.

​@@mygirldarbystop it now, people explained it to you a lot of times!

​@@mygirldarbyDid you watch the full clip? At the end everyone cheered. 🤯

​@@mygirldarby Yes, if someone disturbs the social norm, we point it out. I think it is very weird that you think someone should be allowed to disrespect others and be rude. When you are in a different country, you try to assimilate and follow their rules. Right now you are a prime example of the stereotype of the loud Murican who can't grasp or respect other cultures. Do better.

​@@mygirldarbyThey are trying to silence the rude behavior out of respect for the athlete. Don't you think that every athlete deserves the same treatment? It's your own business if you don't like Khoi, but at least the audience liked him and respected him.

yet audience attend to be part of it and to support alongside. Althletes who can perform regardless of what the crowd is doing are able to become the strongest as they learn not to be distracted.

If it were something else... the cheers would not have roared immediately as you landed.

Yeah I was thinking it's almost too quiet...too easy to get in your own head and overthink it...

Yeah positive thoughts and cheering yields positive results even in plants so why wouldn't we do it for teammates? We do tend to stay quiet for golf and tennis but most sports and athletes like the cheering crowds! They use it to advantage or have learned to ignore it the way I learned to read books on the schoolbus. Lol. Plus fan comes from term fanatics and most fans aren't exactly shy. 😆
