Not gonna lie, the interaction with the tourist was total gold :P

[groenholt]

Janik is so good at English that those who are tourists think he is a tourist too 🤣🤣

[LucyWoIf]

9:50 Those two tourists must have a very very bright future ahead of them, I can tell by this one single interaction

[FadedUploads]

the fake cannabis shops should be banned from advertising like that, gives prague a super bad look in my opinion

The only reason Irish tourists don't have a bad reputation is because everyone thinks they are british. Lol

I'm from Poland and while I was in Prague I was second-hand embarrassed for the idiotic tourists like these. People like these threat the destination they go to like a rollercoaster ride - they do not care if they're doing something stupid, breaking laws or being a nuisance. They just want to "spend their holidays" no matter how much damage they do to the place they're in.
Whenever you go anywhere for your holidays understand this: YOU'RE A GUEST. You don't get to do whatever you want whenever you want. Obey laws, and if you don't know what they are READ BEFORE YOU LEAVE YOUR COUNTRY.

9:53 I genuinely thought these were British tourists until I had a closer listen. They're not, they're Irish I'm ashamed to say as an Irish person.

The last bit she said was "will yeh" (will you) instead of "elsewhere".

I'm not kidding... you should run for Prague Mayor! You have good manners and a genuine desire to make things better. 👏

to everybody defending the two tourists - the issue is not the fact that THEY were being a nuisance. it's very easy to overlook an annoying person. the issue is that residents of prague have to put up with stuff like this on a daily basis, and after a while you just get fed up. there was nothing wrong with the way janek handled this situation. he was not disrespectful, he was stern. had they been using the road (as they are supposed to), there would be no need to create noise pollution to "let people know they were around".

The Netherlands did a great job of preventing cars to go through only public transit areas - just a few months, I saw a street which got converted to be only used by busses (and bikes). Additionally to signs, the city installed a simple camera system which detects and sanctions drivers automatically who don't follow the new traffic rules. Great system as it doesn't require any police to be around all the time but is available 24/7

9:50 I'm disappointed that any Irish people would act like that in Prague, some of us actually care about locals like yourself and want to do right by you and the city. Thanks for all your videos I had a great time in Prague last summer which was helped by your tips.

10:10 the guy looking back every second. "Is he watching? Is he watching?"

[overlordpancake]

Bruh not the tourist aggressively ringing the scooter bell and looking at you like a petulant child 💀

A loooong time ago (the 80's) I held a job as a civil servant for the municipality of Copenhagen and one of the more odd tasks I had to perform was inspection of the rented areas of the pedestrian streets of the central city.
While we were at it, we would also politely notify business owners who would be in violation of the use of public spaces that they were so (often chairs and tables or clothes on display). Some newcomers could often be rude, while most of the more established businesses would instantly rectify the situation excusing themselves with having new people in the shop not knowing the rules.
At an unspecified time some weeks later, we would arrive again. This time with a flatbed truck and the police. Anyone breaking the law would find their shi.. erm, nice stuff confiscated and on top of that, if they started arguing or trying to remove the items, they could find themselves fined for hindering police business.. We rarely had repeat offenders..

Our city here in Germany introduced an app a few years ago where people can report issues to the city like broken traffic lights, trash lying around, scooters blocking the way and other issues that the city should get done.
This allows the mayor to track how fast these issues are resolved, it makes issues explicit that often were untracked before. Apart from the fact that still too few people know about it, IMHO it was quite a success. A valid criticism was that there might be people who use the app to denunciate others, but up to a certain extent things cannot get better if laws aren't enforced.

I live in Prague and am happy to go along with you when you film the red umbrellas as extra protection for you. They are annoying!!

[LykeArgy]

7:28 it could've been solved in a month by hiring 1 worker to fine cars 1000€ per illegal park, trust me, the word of mouth would've gotten out quite fast, and that money could be then used to hire 1 more worker and have them be paid for months after that

[hpee]

9:39 they sure do look depressed with their holiday in Prague

[bINNENmigrant]

I gave you a thumbs up just for the interaction with the tourist. You deserve it for keeping a calm attitude.

[dualfluidreactor]

The two tourists on the scooter at 9:50 perfectly fit the topic of the video:
What are you sick of in Prague
