  1. Loads of car brands do not exist anymore, even though they made important cars: - Rumpler made the "Tropfenwagen", the car with the best air-drag-coefficient for a production car until ~70s ... and they were made in 1923 (many of them being destroyed in Fritz Lang's film "Metropolis" and they were mainly used as taxis in Berlin). - the NSU was a pioneer for cars with Wankel-motor

  2. Most / all this footage looks to be "northern Sweden", where they have a "harsh climate car testing area" which many manufacturers go to. Frozen lakes, snowy inclines ... and if you come early you can even do the "muddy autumn season".

  3. It is the complaint of a "tourist" ... and someone who doesnt own a map (google maps is no replacement for a real map which you look at before setting out on a journey, because you can see the entire journey on the real map).

  4. A few grammar mistakes, but an audible dialect too.

  5. I think we had one or two school shootings in Germany ... about 20 years ago.

  6. Airplanes USED TO BE designed to be "stable" (since the planes had to be controlled manually ... it makes the job of a pilot easier). Only with computers can you have unstable planes that need constant auto-adjusting.

  7. It is more important to be able to "hit the brake" than the accelerator, so it makes sense to have that one be BIG.

  8. In 1953 the CIA regime changed Iran from peaceful democracy to brutal military dictatorship (after lying to two presidents to get permission for it) ... with "Operation Ajax". "They got the name from the dish soap" - Deadpool [instead of the greek hero]

  9. ... and as "permanent homes" for small (semi-mobile) hippie/alternative/minimalist lifestyle communities.

  10. "Cops SITTING AROUND for radar traps" is wasted money.

  11. The problem is not necessarily "the IQ dropping" ... but rather - the low-IQ people not knowing/ACKNOWLEDGING that they are stupid and - the low-IQ people are MORE VISIBLE thanks to social media ... and them being far more loudmouthed than 150 years ago It is a bit like "being able to detect illnesses more easily DOESNT mean they are getting more dangerous/prevalent" ... they are just as bad as they ever were.

  12. Those would come via air delivery.

  13. "If you are an american ... you shouldnt own / drive a vehicle." [After watching loads of "fail" videos.]

  14. They are also a nice piece of INSULATION whenever it is full of snow on the outside. Windows are typical cold spots.

  15. So they need to look into bridge construction ... because they typically arent calculated for "being pushed up".

  16.  @stuarthancock571  A "ball" is a spherical object ... which an "american football" most certainly isnt. There is no name for a "two-pointy-ended oval shape", so calling it "hand-egg-bladder" is the most precise description IMO.

  17.  @pikminologueraisin2139  It's NOT that hard ... and what are you talking about? An oven is just an oven ... and you simply need to LEARN / FIGURE OUT how to do it! If nothing else works ... getting a flat stone and putting that in the oven to bake the pizza on is going to work. STOP BEING LAZY / BRINGING EXCUSES! There are videos on YT for everything!

  18. 8:00 "... a lot of people cant see past our borders" ... WELL, when I was growing up - early 70s, West-Berlin - we had a "story" / "diss", which probably came from a statistic, which stated that "only 25% of americans are able to point to the USA on a globe." Seems true.

  19. Just bake your own bread ... it isnt complicated and just takes half an hour (at most) to mix the ingredients and then an hour or so to bake. The most important bit is to find a tin to bake it in (to give your bread a certain shape) ... mine is a coated tin which I dont even need to butter, because it comes out on its own (after cooling down for 20 minutes ... which makes the bread / tin shrink and thus separates the two). Baking your own bread has the advantage that you can determine how much you bake ... half a kilo or a full kilo. Mine is a whole grain bread recipe with sunflower seed (you can also use pumpkin seeds or other stuff) and it lasts about a week.

  20. NASCAR is still boring ... no corners, no excitement other than crashes ...

  21. NASCAR is BORING ... but if it was done on ... - DIRT TRACKS + Asphalt roads - with a case of Moonshine in the back - and some Cops chasing them [and maybe allowing for a "choice of road of different quality to use" ... it might be a bit more exciting. Winner is determined by distance traveled / escaping the cops AND amount of monshine bottles still intact!

  22. Ignorance is bliss ... the one reason that keeps the "we are the greatest nation in the world" alive.

  23. There was a video on how these logs dragged from the forest were cut into big logs for half-timbered houses here in Germany by hand ... but sadly it got deleted. A quite interesting process involving a decline and a really big hand-powered saw where one man was standing on top of the log and just pulled up the saw, while the other one was pulling it down. Sadly this kind of knowledge gets lost more and more every day ... and fewer and fewer people "touch grass".

  24. France has the advantage of having loads of "uninhabited land" where they can simply build a train track in a STRAIGHT LINE for a great distance. Germany or the UK couldnt do that, because there are loads of small cities "everywhere". And some mountains.

  25. Hint: "Hockey" is played on grass ...

  26. "Should be it's own sub-category" ... yeah ... it's called TRASH.

  27. #25 "Formal dances" are not very formal ... because the people dont really know the "formal" (traditional) dances and just do regular "club dancing". I wish europeans would get back and VALUE THEIR OWN TRADITIONAL CULTURE more.

  28. "Chicken Schnitzel" is definetely not german ... it sounds very much AMERICAN ... because a Schnitzel is a piece of meat "beaten flat / tenderised with a hammer" ... which doesnt really work with chicken meat ... and only americans eat that much chicken ... cheese ... strawberries ... chocolate ... chicken EVERYTHING

  29.  @ReaperOfSouls83  A necessary TEACHING EXPERIENCE ....

  30. Not just those ... my VW Passat is also very "clear" in its design and very practical. Car manufacturers hadnt yet completely rounded every corner/edge for maximum wind tunnel efficiency, which meant that you could actually tell which car it is from their silhouette, which becomes impossible after 2000.

  31. One of the great parts about "cars from late 80s/early 90s" is that they are still LIGHT ... compared to 2003+ models, which is when we got "five star NCAP crash test" advertisements ... which pushed car manufacturers to sacrifice EVERYTHING to achieve this ... by ADDING MORE MASS.

  32. Jane Austen has the first written mentioning of the name in her novel "Northanger Abbey" from 1803.

  33. 5:00 Those tourists were LUCKY it wasnt in the USA ... because they might have been shot as home invaders.

  34. ... and ENGINEERING ... to prepare the car for the loads/ABUSE it will be facing.

  35. In addition it is a 100W lightbulb, which means it is high load that should make it break faster.

  36. #3 The police car is escorting a truck with a "lane closing / move over" sign on the back, which is used to close down a lane for a longer time AND it is visible from further away than a few cones on the road. The accident must have been severe enough for it to require such a measure.

  37.  @verttikoo2052  NO G-Wagon is "cool"! It is an ugly BOX.

  38.  @Alias_Anybody  Egg (pedestrians) was first ... because lizards already laid eggs (and pedestrians existed long before Carl Benz).

  39. Architecture changed ~1900 when architects stopped being educated in ART colleges and instead got their degrees from TECHNICAL universities. GONE is the urge to create something BEAUTIFUL to be replaced by MINIMISING COST and MAXIMISING SPACE (for more profit). There was a german professor of architecture [Bruno Specht], who complained about "ugly architecture being built all around us WITHOUT ANYONE COMPLAINING", which would be a good thing, because everyone has to see it while using public spaces called streets.

  40. Heavy Metal musical ... because it is quite loud.

  41. Good thing you cant identify the driver ... right? Good thing our police doesnt analyse the speed he is driving [the length of the white lines on the road is normed, so you can do it] from a video ... right?

  42. 4:25 The brakes AND the DOWNFORCE ... because he is overtaking others in the corners at significantly higher speed.

  43. Wearing a baseball cap ... is a good start, but if they still do it INDOORS it is a pretty sure sign.

  44. Concerning "elevator in 1600" ... there were "elevators" of sorts for mines ... where you had a seesaw with basically two long logs hanging from the ends and one of them was going up and the other down and then it reverses in a few seconds, so you'd have to constantly go from one log to the other, standing on a little platform (large enough for your shoes) and holding onto a handle. It takes a while to get up/down ... but at least you dont really have to climb it and save your strength for the work shift.

  45. #2 looks like "just slap another THIN layer of surface on some already existing road (including imperfections) ... which is NOT a good way to do it.

  46.  @eelco1982  NO ONE - except for the ones who can affor their lifestyle - is really "free". Working for a living is part of life, but the USA is especially bad, because "exploiting fellow citizens is seen as acceptable or even praised.

  47. The siren sounds pretty old school too.

  48. 3:20 Oh come on .. "white men cant jump" and there must be something in the genes of kenians to make them superior runners. 5:20 Just remember ... there is a "Paris, Texas" too! (There is even a movie about that and many MANY "Berlins" exist ... because "you guys" cant make up your own names.
    2
  49. FIRES make up only 4% of all the calls in the USA, so "water pressure" is kinda IRRELEVANT. Again ... watch the "Not Just Bikes" video!

  50. 2:30 That crowded stuff is LONDINISTAN (it's not called London anymore) and you might want to rethink that statement, because that city has TINY ROADS which dont really hold many cars AND HARDLY ANY PARKING SPOTS. Simply go at NON-RUSH-HOUR TIMES ... so ... that video is just as flawed as the statements he criticises.
