1st time at Brighton Beach

[xanyxxxx]

Filthy ghetto of BB...hope it drowns in the ocean, there's nothing but human filth and frauds living there, mixed with illegals, really rough place.

[rmpbklyn]

let's see you go all the way Coney Island and you don't go to Nathans???

you saw the sign, duh

note to tourists, look up restaurants first before going about. the food you want is not going to magically appear before your eyes. NY is made of many mini-cities/neighborhoods each with different ethnicities.

[OSMOOLEE]

there r sure lots of RUSSIANS over there....

[plushoom]

I remember Brighton Beach, and people look a bit nervous there.

[Sadistica]

lol same here in Berlin when you enter a turkish kebab shop!

now I am not sure if I feel comfortable about visiting nyc o_O lol

[danaburnsdotnet]

haha!

well i don't really count brighton beach as "nyc" hehe. Stick to Manhattan, you'll fit in anywhere, and if you go to the outer boroughs stick to the neighborhoods near Manhattan unless you have a certain place in mind to check out.

[dmitriy40]

Although they mostly speak Russian around Brighton Beach, about 90% of people there are Ukrainian Jews. So a Nazi pig will most definitely NOT be comfortable here. Nor will he/she be very welcome. So why don't you just stay where you are and direct your hate towards the turks who make you so uneasy in your Aryan paradise! :))))

[RRramzRR]

[diefantastischenvier]

BTW youve got a nice website.

I especially like your painting of the gates in central park.

I love the work of Christo and Jeanne-Claude.

Do u remember when they covered the "Reichstag" in Berlin?

My uncle is a light artist and he and his partner re animated the building by using huge projectors.

Ill send you the link so you can have a look

[danaburnsdotnet]

Thanks a lot! I appreciate you taking the time to look at some of my work. I have seen pics of the 'wrapped' Reichstag, it's incredible. Wow you're uncle lighted it? That is great! I'd love to check out the link, please email me. ;-) Danke ~

[diefantastischenvier]

Ive sent the links to your YouTube Mailbox.

Oh, you now how to talk in german, excellent job :-)

[diefantastischenvier]

Hi, how far way is Brighton beach from Manhattan?

Im from germany and i have no idea how big the new york area actually is.

For europeans its like New York city is Manhattan and maybe we know Queens because of the King of queens.

[danaburnsdotnet]

About an hour from lower Manhattan (south Brooklyn).. right next to Coney Island. (Take the B or Q train to Brighton Beach)

Wilkommen. ;-) That's cool for me that you're form Germany, I've always wanted to go there. Where in Germany?

Yes Manhattan is just one part.. it's very safe now and it's getting built up and more expensive as the years go on.. so many people who can't afford Manhattan move to the Bronx, Queens, or Brooklyn.

[diefantastischenvier]

Ive heard about it, real estate prices are on a unbelieveable lvel right now.

Im from the middle of germany the city is called Kassel. We have a huge exhibition which is calle "documenta" in our town.

Maybe you heard about it!? Its world famous for contemporary art which is exhibited.

[diefantastischenvier]

But the half of my family is from the south of germany near to the "Black Forest" and the other half is from a city near cologne.

But I was born in a town called "Göttingen" about 30 miles away from Kassel.

[arktikgraywolf2]

Actually the wind down there is blowing constantly, cut its the board walk of the beach, for those who didnt know.

[danaburnsdotnet]

it's good in this hot weather, no? when i was there in this vid it was freezing - so the wind just made it worse.

[marie1986]

did they really kicked u out for beeing no russian?

if they did its unbelievable

[danaburnsdotnet]

he said 'private party'.. hmm but what kind of private party?? haha. the people seemed pretty rude.. i could easily pass as being russian so i don't think that was the reason.. i was just kidding around about that. ;P

[dmitriy40]

I live near Brighton Beach. Russians are reserving the whole restaurant very often for all sorts of occasions -- birthday parties, anniversaries, weddings, graduations, etc. To suddenly find out that your favorite restaurant or cafe is closed for a "private party" is pretty common. Just go to the next one -- there are dozens of spots in the area. ;)

[cjwright79]

Sounds like you were in a hurricane.

[danaburnsdotnet]

C'était trop froid et venteux - so we split the scene..
