I've been living outside of New Zealand for too long because some of you are telling me that many of the more modern NZ showers have removable shower heads 🙌 This makes me very happy.

I think most Germans want to lern driving in a manual car because when you learn to drive a automatic car you're not allowed to drive any manual cars but if you learn to drive a manual car you can just drive everything. So that would be my opinion...

As a German I love watching videos like this one, because it's cute to see what people of other countries think about us Germans.^^

Those 'weird' German things are actually pretty standard in the entire Europe, not just Germany

[paulinahengstermann]

Ich noch nie jemanden so begeistert von Duschköpfen reden hören.. 😂

German Smalltalk in a Nustshell:
Grüß dich!
Hi, und hast du schon Winterreifen drauf?
Nein Mann! danke für die Erinnerung, machs gut, wir sehen uns

[Lormenkal]

not having a removable showerhead sounds awful

[SanPendro]

Winter tires arent used during summer because they become too soft in warm temperatures and wear off quickly

[mtgreengarden]

Manual cars have Fahrvergnügen, automatics not so much.

[Alex-ztht]

I'm german and thought the whole time:"you don't do that?"

[BadSegeberg]

Winterreifen hätten im Sommer einen längeren Bremsweg als Sommerreifen.

Kids in Germany ride bikes at the age of 3-4. All of us ride bikes, old and young! It is really strange if someone has no bike.... 😀

[slimeworld]

If you enjoy people on bicycles you you go to Netherlands. They are basically born on a bicycle 😂

[Alisen]

Me (a German): watching video
Antoinette: Winter tyres!
Me: Crap! Really need to set a date to get my tyres changed.


Thanks you Antoinette for reminding me!

I think a more accurate title for this video would be:
Normal everyday EUROPEAN things that really surprised me.

"Some thin I love about germany: the older generation riding on their bikes..."
Wait until you got your drivers license.

As to the subject of winter tires: they deteriorate at an extreme rate when temperatures are above their ideal range. So you would need way more tires if they are used during summer time. Further they are less secure in summer. The rubber gets really soft and while breaking you would virtually slide ont the rubber and the car would come way later to a stop.

, ,...because in Germany it snows...."
Well, not anymore I guess.

Edit: Leute, ich bin Deutsch, man kann mir also auch auf Deutsch antworten xD

[Alias_Anybody]

No removable shower heads? O_O

How can you live like that?

[roy.mclean]

I think I learned more unusual things about New Zealand than Germany.
