David Hasselhoff at Berlin Wall 1989

[techgeek97]

When the wall came down and the russians rushed out it was a day when freedom won...

But david hasselhoff started singin and the wall was put back up...

[Sabohaque]

That scarf was designed by Mugatu.

[itsdinger]

Chuck Norris was busy that day so he sent the Hoff with his terrible singing to make the wall fall :D

[modshroom]

this is beautiful, seriously. the symbolism behind mankind relieving themselves from political oppression always puts a tear to my eye.

[jmewhyte]

yeah germans don't hassle the hoff lol

[momolew]

DAT JACKET

[andreletourneau]

I was in Berlin celebrating the New Year as the wall was crumbling and this "Hasselhoff" took the stage. What a disgrace!! An historical moment ruined by cheap american propaganda. Even though that I'm not a Scorpion fan. I agree "Wind of Change" would have been much more appropriate.

[earl77]

I would have rather seen the Scorpions performing "Wind of Change" instead of him. That would have been epic.

[GaeasBlessing]

You just don't hassle The Hoff.

[grego3447]

super jadore

[jackmasterhun1]

Thank You HUNGARY !!!  freedom

[Ventgirl5]

As my crasy History teacher would say "anyone you likes the hoff might as well like Hitler"

he said this because we went from WWII to Cold War.

[zerawk]

he is teh one whos responsible for teh fall of teh wall! <3 u hoff!

[lildickheads]

nice jacket

[fsol13]

Hahaha holy shit!

[johnnydepplover288]

my world geo teacher told me to look this up lol

[Briconartist111]

I cry every time I see this...because this is ass-clown is ruining such a beautiful moment

[chosuriki]

After Disaster!

[CardinalJiles]

the loveline after disaster brought me here. #boom

[justmoijah]

Amezzin'

[girlie347]

amazing that people dont give him more credit, after all he's directly responsible for the fall of the berlin wall and the subsequent fall of communism worldwide.

He should get the nobel prize for this.

[SirAlucard15]

historic...pre-historic....dav­id, with this jacket, looks like dynamo from "the running man"

[bovb902]

Serious o-o the berlin wall is still up

[zlajacrnjak20]

lol, where can I get that jacket? It's sooo...hip xD

[TheNemesis1365]

you REALLY REALLY could'nt make this video up

[ZyctoH]

Thumbs up if Dagbladet sent you here!

[pani74]

Germany demolished the Berlin Wall and built a bigger one around its external borders

[okgotocommerical]

it was his jacket that brought down the wall

[katts11]

Wow I didn't know that David H contributed that much to the fall of the wall! See? Just ONE american with a cool jacket and a cool song is all it took baby! The mythical power of the United States of America will never cease to impress me.

[ChiandraPaula]

@katts11 really ???? man , u stupid !

[zonip67]

@katts11 Trolololol

[TelephoneScatologica]

TO BRAINWASHED FUCKING AMERICANS. THERE WAS THIS EVENT, AND HASSELHOFF SUNG THERE AS AN ENTERTAINER. HASSELHOFF DID NOT BRING DOWN THE WALL WITH HIS SWEET AWESOME SONG. YOU NEED TO GET OUT OF YOUR MOTHERS BASEMENT. FUCKING NERD.

[globalcannibal77]

Shouldn't he talking to the Berliners in english at the end of the video if he's in Berlin, just a thought

[DXvsnWo1]

He should go to to Libya and sing this!

[TelephoneScatologica]

@DXvsnWo1 Gaddafi was trying to implement a currency for Africa and Middle Eastern states, which is why America replaced him. surely Berlin fucking wall was a more honest expression of people's will,

[survivrs]

Nothing more than a pretty boy wanna be! Never liked him in the 80's and don't like him now. His presence on BGT is a slap in the face to the competitors. He doesn't know jack about singing to be a credible judge.

[ArticulatingMadnessY]

That firecracker almost singlehandedly saved the 90s from David Hasselhoff.

[katts11]

OMG I want a jacket like that I'd wear it at least 15 times a year - I'm sure I'd get all the cool sexy milfs who still live in the 80s

[GamingWonder568]

rucka rucka ali russias gay song

[Fred6191]

how does that jacket work does it need to be wired to work

[SexyBuilder1888]

living legend

[KrazyKommieKiller]

Somehow Hasselhoff showed the initutive to make up that song (the words, he stole the tune) just in time for one of the defining moments in German history, thus securing himself stardom in Germany for the next decade.

[SuckBoot]

The song that single handedly ended communism.

[richerite]

WOW! What other world events involved the Hoff singing?

[chaosandwalls]

@richerite It's a little known fact but David Hasselhoff's performance of "I would do anything for love (But I won't do that)" was actually responsible for the Cuban missile crisis

[dasadist22]

@chaosandwalls hoff sang in 1963 ? wow !!!!!!!

[apiel1139]

That song sucks

[Cassius1706]

The Hoff rocked so hard the Berlin Wall fell down

[BeanButterman]

the hoff is a trooper, you know he heard that shit whizzzz by.

[dietcoke111989]

i NEED that jacket.

[Alexilconte83]

his coat is horrible

[WhiteBreadLife]

"like" if "Same Name" brought you here!

[MrDts1988]

if i was an eastern european, after seeing this i would have said 'thanks, but no thanks' and rebuilt the wall

[thegranitebison]

@MrDts1988 Is Germany not actually in Western Europe..?

[nathfrancis01]

@thegranitebison don't be a scrot.

[thegranitebison]

don't be a dumbass

[sushifornico]

Happy Birthday David!!

[mercuryrulz]

He is an american hero!!!!!

[Fo0O0oTBall]

3:22 FREAKIN DODGES A firework!

[archerourpark]

is it a plane?

is it a christmas tree?

no its the Hoff!!!

[DeepSnowBand]

If that firecracker had hit him how differant history would have been...

[RiverRatGaming]

Why does everyone talk crap on Hasselhoff...Im German and love his music

[KidCult]

@RiverRatGaming exactly. your german. the rest of us have taste.

[DeepSnowBand]

What I wanna know is what idiot invited him...?

[dennisgeleyn]

I want a jacket like that one.

[TheAwar12]

@ 3:24 I was expecting someone to push him off

[redmustang03]

This is something Dirk listened to probably last night before the game.

[MegaJim555]

KNIGHT RIDER HELL YEAH!!!

[hurricane567]

And this is where that Evil Empire knew they were on a one way trip to the dustbin of history.

[66fee99]

I love his jacket! So shiny xD

[Amyfisnmv]

scott mills as well ;)

[djh29971]

If they knew the Hoff was going to perform this trite, they would of kept the wall up!

[diegodaudt]

Lies...

[laurwaaa]

[rpm371]

Diiirrrrkkkk!!!

[crazytrain2008]

DIRK!!!!

[scamkid]

pure propaganda

[DeepSnowBand]

He never could sing...

[97channel]

I would have torn down that wall entirely by myself, with my bare hands, for that jacket.

Imagine turning up for an important job interview and sparking that thing up. They'd be like "Woah, he's THE man! You're hired!".

[rar9518]

Can you imagine the atmosphere in Berlin at that time? The Berlin Wall hasn't even been down 2 months and Germans are celebrating at the location that had been closed for so long with there idol David Hasselhoff singing a song about freedom. Must have been electric and happy.

[TheLego96]

want that jacket

[TheSvenskMan]

oh my God hahaha you americans are so stupid Russians did all of the work

[Dweezer123]

Don't HASSLE the HOFF!

[gnarlygnarlington]

assassination attempt foiled hoffstylez

[BlueLeopard200]

I suppose it's fitting that Hassellhoff sang this song - only in a free society would someone like that be allowed to sing

[TheMusicDude1997]

When the jewish people heard his voice, I'm sure they sprinted for those ovens.

[alicemad89]

@TheMusicDude1997 the thing with the jewish was during the 2nd world war.. this here is in 1989 - end of East Germany-nothin to do with Jewish people. - even if: plse be careful - it not a really funny part of the history where to make fun of burning people!!

[alicemad89]

@TheMusicDude1997 the thing with the jewish was during the 2nd world war.. this here is in 1989 - end of East Germany-nothing to do with Jewish people. - even if: plse be careful - it not a really funny part of the history where to make fun of burning people!!

[TheMusicDude1997]

@alicemad89 It was a joke by a comedian called Lisa Lampanelli

[zaak928]

Esat Germans may have wondered: are we sure we want to be on the side?!! Waiting during 40 years for that!

[dctandeable]

david Hasselhoff will be always great I will be his fan always.

[dctandeable]

i like watching david in knight rider

so lay off of him who ever dogs him is just jealous that you are not rich and famous

[dctandeable]

i like watching david in knight rider

[sehguh1]

If he got hit by that fire cracker, he would've caught fire, fell down, died, and the Cold War would continue. WWIII would start, and we'd all be dead. Thank you for ducking, David.

[shaahb1]

we should have invented a time-machine FOR KNIGHT RIDER. !

[danielchilton]

1989 and the best we can give the soon to be reunited Germany is the Hoff? What the crap America. What the crap.

[E55Jake]

@danielchilton how dare you!!



[talon115]

Get 'em Hoff!!

[crinihendrix1350]

wow. did david hasselhoff really single-handedly tore down the berlin wall?

[shaahb1]

playback and pianoscarf is the best the men can get.

[Dixie0815]

I was there that New Years Eve (Sylvester) , but I don't remember him - funny that!! :-)

[ivouken]

I fancy that technodrome jacket!

[anaaardvark]

light up leather jacket AND a keyboard tie? well done, sir. well done.

[shaahb1]

hassel has the leatherjacket

[deepakkamuz]

In germany,  chuck norris is well known as david hasselhoff.

[69KMAR]

WOW....Germans go APE SHIT for him.....at least someone likes him......

[cripbabe111]

frightening -

[fyckthissht]

you will never sing a popular pop song on the berlin wall just as it collapsed while being david hassellhoff

sadfrong.png

[shaahb1]

Still looking for that bliss..

[corn7869]

44 people haven't been looking for freedom.

[sewerdivingcrew]

anybody else notice the bottle thrown at him around 3:22 lmaoo

[TiCyB]

@sewerdivingcrew It's actually a firecracker.

[sortedevaras]

Just think, the first thing they got as they are escaping Soviet domination is fucking Hasselhoff singing.

[sniperRobert]

@sortedevaras lmfao

[xirtlu]

"Hijack!!" 4:06

[n0lzie]

Hoff's electricity bill must be throught the roof!

[alisterfletcherluvr]

I really wish I was not only born when this happened, but I also wish I was there!

[padraigomuireagain]

your right ear just went funny at 0:24

[OtakuxKei]

Is this why the East German's wanted to escape so bad?

[Seidelus]

David Hasselhoff ended communism that day!

[PlatinumV3]

@KhazModan East Germany was Communist and West Germany was Democratic and both East and West Germany became one germany

[mercuryrulz]

Hasselhoff is a fuckin god to them now

[momolew]

Of all the famous artists, Sting, Bono, Madonna; they chose The Hoff to sing in democracy and freedom.

Semper fucking fi. :D

[moralhell]

Where can I get this scarf?!?

[mercuryrulz]

@moralhell SCREW THE SCARF I WANT THAT COAT

[chapleeds]

What a complete tosser !



[ma06immensee]

[bozothefighterpilot]

Our freedom as Americans are slowly being disolved by our elected communist in Washington DC. 

[MoPPsychotik]

@bozothefighterpilot we are SHEEPLE ROFL XD

[Iwearstripythings]

@bozothefighterpilot

You clearly have NO idea what communism is.

[timticklerful]

@bozothefighterpilot Hey man don't hassle the Hoff.

[YOUROXJACK]

Egyptian National anthem

[Ahmadad]

You know what's missing with the celebration in Egypt....David Hasselhoff

[rehpot73]

@Ahmadad That's hilarious!  I thought the same thing! I hope he wears the same outfit.

[thefinedetail]

haha, someone tries to shoot a firework at him at 3:20. barely missed.

[FUCKyouANDyourDOG]

The Hoff is without a doubt 1 of the most important figures in World history.

[JohannBrigtsenNOR]

@FUCKyouANDyourDOG bwahahahhaa. ur funny. that was a joke rigth?

[J4K31]

@FUCKyouANDyourDOG LMFAO WHAT

[rmallat12]

[AHafan1]

The greatest symbol of DDR oppression turned into a party just like that =D ich liebe

[rogeralexander7]

:LOOK A PERSON...TODAY..AND YOU KNOW WHAT HE HAS BEEN IN THE PAST: HE HAS GOOD PLUBICIST,..MARKETING PEOPLE..,,HELL HE IS NO REAL ACTOR....THE CAR HAD MORE PIZZASS AND YOU NEVER SAW ITS LIPS MOVE.

[jfko6]

@rogeralexander7 Sour Grapes. Sounds like sour grapes.

[jp3438]

Please can someone send me the song by email j.c.porter@hotmail.co.uk

Thank You

[mysteryscience3000]

the Hoff brought down the wall, giving Germans something to be united about: their love for him

[AsunaTakezaka]

For those that noticed, if Hasselhoff stopped bending over by like, 5 inches, he would have been decapitated by a firecracker at 3:21

[mytubenik]

Buying hes jacket , pm me :D

[TyreezyTyrak]

@mytubenik from where??? I've been trying to find it but havent had any luck. I NEED THAT JACKET!

[Turkeysucks2010]

@TyreezyTyrak They buried it with Michael Jackson.

[BullsFan23331]

lol this part is in rucka rucka alis parody russia is gay!

[kevinl9391]

one thing i learned is that a wall cannot hassel the hoff

[jesper1406]

Again, in 4/4 - Germans just LOVE that march pitch they can really clap their hands to...

[celt67]

They didn't need bulldozers. The Hoff's awesomeness broke down the wall all on it's own.
