  • Americans, charming?, cocky?, well just cocky, there aint no, fucking charm there!.

  • ALSO...'the few english that bother to go to america'. Four million english go to the US each year. That's 8%, or 1/12 of the population. That's like 26 million americans visiting the UK (the entire population of New York state).

  • "the english are inherently lazy'. Yeah, that whole 'worlds largest empire' thing just fell into their lap with no effort....

  • funny thing is, the only place i have ever been in america is florida, same with all my friends with the exception of one who has also been to new york

  • Do you think that we should adpot american English to make your life easier. Do you also think that all Brits are booze heads? You are a guest in the UK and you insult it. Go home yank.

  • That was really interesting :) I just want to say that I'm English and I've only been to Los Angeles and Seattle over on the west coast, but I know what you mean about Florida and New York, English love to go there. Seattle was awesome, I've been twice and the experience was kinda familiar and exotic at the same time, I guess because of the distance, y'know? One thing that always cracks me up is how utterly evil English place names are for foreigners to pronounce!

  • That's pretty cool that you are from New Mexico. I love it there. It was one of my favorite places to visit! I'd miss it too!

  • regardless of the difference in economics, politics and culture, it is a fundamental fact that the USA and the UK alike are 2 of the best countries on the planet. I hate it when i come across videos and see some idiot saying something like "our country is better than yours''. I've been to America and submerged myself in the culture to experience what its like to be American and it made the summer of 2007 the best summer i've ever had! and i can't wait to go again.... and no it wasn't Florida lol

  • Fuck yeah Sheffield!

  • mate you got are number

  • i think you will find that most of us go on dates i mean i had a girlfriend for one and a half years and we did more than "pull all the time" lol. i think maybe the guys you are around just want sex and not a relationship at the moment. i am sure many americans are the same too.

  • DRINK YOU UNDER THE TABLE BOY! and you're older than me! Bud is 3% in USA WTF? 3% My mum couldn't get pissed on that!

  • @MetusModus In Utah, all the beer is regulated to have a lower alcohol content than in other states... Can you believe that shit???

  • @BrianKizzle Yes in NYC it took me a lot of Bud ( at 3% ) to get just as drunk as I would here. 3% THREE! So I tried a Manhattan, when in Rome I thought, nice enough drink but it took a lot to get pissed. A lot! Where do you have your washing machine? Where is a better place than in the kitchen?

  • My washing machine is in the Utility room...Im from England :)

  • @WarriorPoetAg he's 23 and this aint the Victorian period 'dates' lol

  • @WarriorPoetAg of course we go on dates, that is silly?

  • Not bad although there are a few stereotypes in here.

  • With your dating bit, we're not all the same you know. And whats wrong with having the washer in the kitchen? Lol.

    And with the laziness bit, we're not all the same their either, just like how not all Americans are the same.

    And the end of this video...aww :)

  • Superb vids mate, The washing machines are in the kitchens so we can wash our mushy peas. LMAO

  • Hmmm.

  • holy shit, you got the whole florida - step one thing spot on! how did you know lol basically we have steps here, 1. Florida 2. New York 3. Boston 4. Miami and i doubt i have ever seen an english person in all my life get past step 4. DO MORE VIDEOS ON UK lol they make me laugh mate

  • brian, come post your videos in my happier abroad forum! happierabroad dot c o m!

  • I generally dont like Americans, but, that was a good video that shows Americans in a good light to be clever, witty and humourous. The complete opposite of the majority that I have experienced and so based my opinion on.

    Nice one

  • i study in Sheffield too :D

  • American's are lazy that's why alot of you guys are fat

  • @13r1tish over two-thirds of Americans are overweight: one-third are considered "obese". For every child born after the year 2000, 1 in 3 will develop Type 2 Diabetes. For minorities (non-whites), that number is 1 in 2. Health in America is directly tied to income, as healthier foods are much more expensive than junk food. The difference between the prices at Wal-Mart and Whole Foods is alarming. However, physical exercise doesn't require money, so people have no one blame but themselves. x

  • Nice work Brian - it's always interesting to hear how other people see us.

    Please bear in mind though that most of the observations you make are based on a student life and therefore a student culture. This does not mirror the actual everyday life.

    This thing about people being inherently lazy actually goes against European studies that show British people are just about the most under-paid and over-worked of all of the EU communities - we have fewer holidays and do more hours per week.

  • ok..ok ok....england isnt lazy, your just saying that cuz you were probably hangin around with a bunch of chavs..and i dunno where you stayed because in england the things we hate the most are outsiders (e.g paki's), journalists and beeing bored

    if your british like me youll agree if your british and you dont..then your a filthy paki

  • @1818181818p LMFAO with a hint of BNP sprinkled on top

  • @toxic2k7 hahaha!

  • our clothes washer is in the utility room, not kitchen. and im in england...the north ghettos of britain!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!

  • @joew559 utility room? fuck me how posh are you haha

  • if you complain about it so much why dont you fuck off.hope some chav watches this and jumps on your head

  • 90% white?

    Well that's wrong there's 45% Middle East in a recent survey in the Times

    Which is like a decent paper which is RARE! :O

    anyways last comment been spamming too much Enjoyed watchin this <3

  • Oh fecking lol "checkout staff are lazy and do not back your backs"

    Fecking hell your the lazy one dear >.> Its supposed to be faster if you pack and the checkout helps you pack. Your a able-bodied man if a old fella/lady or a young kid comes around checkout staff are REQUIRED to assist them fully. I mean WTF are you supposed to do if you are not packing bags? Play around on a snazzy gameboy? : / Make a phone call and look important? jesus christ you lazy git that got me fired up xD

  • @Unit06JAW bags :p

  • Our education system is a wee bit different.

    We are supposed to spend it on study and personal progression as peeps in Britain are expected to mature faster. The average age for someone to be out there working now is 16-18. I'm sorry dear but the American culture that you came from is a very pampered and protected way of growing up. You don't get that here save the Queens English areas. We get a shorter amount of classes because we are expected to work out of class. And get work experience.

  • @Unit06JAW I've been grilled for generalizing in these videos, but I must admit: I think about 80% of American students would fail Uni in the UK because they aren't driven enough to do school work out of class. x

  • @BrianKizzle tbh about 90% of British kids fail at the school system here aswell. You do need that drive, places like Japan and America do a good job of forcing kids through school for better or worse.

    Australia and many european countries has the system I previousally explained.

    Kids here are a bit more relaxed about the whole education affair and tend to get to working and raising a family very early.

  • its ryan jarman with an american accent

  • Oh and people in shopping centres where I live always offer to pack your bags for you, I always decline, how damn lazy is that needing someone to pack your shopping bags. FGS I'm not a child.

  • I really resent you saying that students are lazy, don't generalise so much. I am a student and I work bloody hard, with 20 + hours a week not including all the coursework and extra reading that I need to do. Between Oct-Jan I never had any free time. It would have been impossible to have a job, I was working late into the night every night. Its got better recently I get a bit of free time though still not enough to work.

  • As for money, a lot of students have to fund themselves, I worked for a year before going to uni. Loans DONT cover everything, my loans barely pay accomodation or tuition fees and we have to pay them all back, that means students are getting out of uni with about 20,000 pounds worth of debt :(

    You are acting like people are giving money away to us which is just not true. Please think before you generalise so horribly.

  • That's it, I'm going to study abroad in England.

  • @OmgPanda1 glad you saw something positive about it. I'm amazed this guy is saying that there's such huge diversity in Britain and then he's putting us all in the same boat.

  • its cool to know u like England, take a trip down to Cornwall its sunny there and they host the surfing competition on fistral beach!

  • primart = child labour

  • @hackingtime88 so is about half of all American clothing stores. It's sad that people (in general) don't care about such things. x

  • lol english people

  • I dont know what your on about with dating thing.

    We do have laudary rooms.

    I do love american music aswell especially metal.

    Youve not really seen enough universaties.

    People do pack shopping. Point said.

    Ied love to go to america :)

  • @borednerd74 Also if florida exists, isnt it american? Just a thought :)

  • @borednerd74 Also if florida exists in america , isnt it american? Just a thought :)

  • haha i live in florida.. It seems pretty american to me!

  • Lol interesting to see what you think of us. Im from Newcastle which you mentioned, and we have the best nightlife here. I love your accent.

  • i talk to girls all the time pal . we love america wy do you hate us.?

  • Whats up, U.S. in the house. Or on your page thingy. I find your video to be fascinating. Is there any chance in hell someone without money can find a way to study in Europe? I've only been to Holland once. I always click more with people who are from other countries than with other Americans.

  • too bad you are not gay. you are sexy.

  • Great video and he is spot on

  • haha nicee vid :)

  • obviously 7 months wasn't enough...

  • Top bloke, i'm english and practically everything he said is true.

  • Lol its funny how different the Brits and Americans are.

    The Brits love to party, drink, fuck and be miserable.

    The Americans like to talk, work and eat.

    Lol and the Florida thing is true, I'm English and I've been to America once, and I went to Florida.

    And England is not 90% white. It's a very multicultural place.

    And Americans always follow the Brits, not the other way around.

  • stop dissing sheffield people (:

    it's mint there :D

  • @heaxthxerx that's not me dissing! That's classic American tough love. I'm actually moving back there in September... Sheffield is my fave! xx

  • thank you a video about england made by an american that makes me proud to be british and ye your right it is a small country with over 68,000,000 people living in it and the university loans over here are quite big my cousin got one for about £15,000

  • nice to hear you like England mate

  • "The English pee themselves when they see the site of every disaster movie" lol!

    Florida has never appealed to me to be honest. Too plastic.

  • Great video, super funny !! I am in the process of hopefully going next semester. Do you have any advice?

  • your video was super funny! I am in the process of trying to do the same thing next semester. any advice?

  • very...very....lame

  • This guy is funny! Think he might just be living in his own sweet little bubble over here. What ppl need to realise is that you cannot generalise a country and I definitely don't believe that us English r lazy.OK Maybe the students that r living off mummy and daddy. One generalisation I think is safe to make though is that Great Britain is a nation of drinkers and we love it!!! :)

  • america is the best.

    I love going over there.

  • hate 2 say it mate but shefeild is a bit of a dump and what you say about dating is completely wrong!!!!

  • lol that was pretty funny. I completed USA stage 1 twice and ready for stage 2 NY. Yea brits dont hate americans, far from it. Its just seen as cool in the media to pretend we hate them.

     although dont agree with 10-12 hrs of uni a week being considered a lot over here, science degrees are usually 20-30, 10-12 is normally if you have alot of reading to do for the degree - like an english lit BA.

  • Aw Im glad you like our country,

    some brits [such as myself] also go to Florida for disneyland, :)

  • I'm English and I just drink and fuck and hang out.

    I thought everyone did that.

    apparently not

  • Good video man I liked it...glad you like our country.

    But Sheffield????

  • lazy? im 18 and i work 43 hours a week... top that yankie...

  • Before I moved to England, I had 21 hours of class time a week, two jobs which ranged 35-55 hours a week, plus I was in five student organizations. And I still found the time to drink myself silly. Granted, I didn't know anyone who did as much as I did.

    My usage of the word "lazy" was meant to mean at a slower place-- the length of breaks at work, the length of shifts, etc, in relation to America-- a systemic ease of pace, not individuals screwing around. You are certainly NOT lazy in my eyes.

  • @BrianKizzle ignore him mate, some english people like to start arguements for NO reason lol eg if they feel like they are being attacked, they will fight back on auto-pilot lol and that made me laugh so hard about washing machine in kitchen, i thought that was normal lol mine is in my kitchen aswell??? i dno man. kool vid

  • dude your a tat bit obsessed with alcohol. the washmachine remark made me laugh soo much .:) Its cos houses are smaller ! and all uk students arnt loaded ! We just dont have the culture of having a 'college fund'.

  • @darkstar01010england Well said mate!

  • Finally a balanced, experienced, non-insulting portrait of UK.

  • the UK always is the place to go for good music and has been since the 60's. the UK festivals cant be beaten

  • Comment removed

  • plus we dont HAVE to be in possession of a passport, its nnot british law, you need to research more, my fragile narrow minded american friend

  • @adamidus he didn't say it was British law to have a passport smart one. He said that it's necessary to have one because countries in Europe are very close to one another.

  • oh ok my bad dude maybe i heard it wrong, but i still think the guy's image of our country is wrong, i know plenty of americans that love the UK and dont have a bad thing to say about it, apart from our pretty violent nightlife and kiddy gangs in cities, but where in the world doesnt have that?

  • i love the way he's generalising us british by saying we're too polite, that we're not outspoken, there are about 70million of us, you havent met us all yet! entertaining video, naive but entertaining........

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • exactly bartapian, i like my job, i like working, i earn good money in return for around 70 hours of my time per week, i am not by any means lazy, , the wider picture has not been considered, and it's his view, which he is entitled to, saying that the british "feel" like they need to be polite is weird, but have u researched the murder stats for both countries? america = around 11,500 murders per year and britain = around 300, even considering population, these figures are staggering....

  • population in america is around 260,000,000 and britain is around 70,000,000, and just look at the size of the US compared to UK in terms of land mass, if our country was the size of the US, and we were as densely populated as we are now, sociology expert say the population would be in excess of 1.5 billion people, thats amazing. and i bet we would still have less murders, i love the UK just the way it is, ok apart from a few things, but everywhere has its ups and downs.......

  • I doubt the murder comment. The reason why we have so many is because a larger country is harder to govern. Also, Great Britain is an island. Mexican and South American drug cartels cause a lot of crime in the South West. A lot of the crime in this country is because of drugs and drug gangs.

  • lol fuck ur self

  • finally an american who can see england as not all stuck up and snobbish

  • LOL really?! There's adds everywhere for Florida?? I heard there was add's all around for Cali, so is that true?

    Holy sh*t 90% white?!! I've never even been in a room with 90% white lol

    lol at the ASU reference, nice man haha

    I want to visit England!! lol

    But of course I'm part of that 19% and don't have a passport!! hahahaha!

  • I think youve no quite experianced all of england quite yet.....

    The only part you got rightwas the drinking and the shaggin bit....The bitish arent quite as ignorant as the amicans :)

  • this guy has lived there for seven months, im pretty sure hes got the jist...and to call all "americans ignorant". you seem to be the stereotypical brit

  • typical... someone waiving their hands in the name of righteousness whilst proclaiming those across the sea as ignorant....

  • Well at least he likes us...You could have fooled me at the beginning though.....

  • Alot of this based on you own experiences. I'm english and i am nothing like that or anyone i know -.- At least we have culture here.

  • The Florida thing is mostly due to Disney World in Orlando, I think.

  • "inherently lazy" I think not... We just have a slower pace of life and enjoy it.

  • i like him.... he makes sence

  • Well that was patronising, lol. So in conclusion, the english are alright because we dont stop drinking?

    And that laziness thing was just harsh.

  • Excellent!! This video is so cool.

  • Hes joking about the hills right?

  • I'm English and you got us more or less spot on!

  • mate your spot, you more or less described me lol

  • Hey, I'm British and I date...

    And a bf or gf is someone you love and want to be with!

  • i went to florida for the rides! lol

  • students are SUPPOSED to spend most of the time shaggin, drinkin or doin drugs - you've got the rest of your life to work all week

  • sheffield nightlife ftw..that city is a mint night out

  • where do you keep the washing machine in America then if its not in the kitchen?

  • uhh we keep our washing machines in the laundry room. lol

  • im english and mine is in the laundry room

  • Soooo true about you being able to pull off any outfit :P ... The Flaming Ho topped it off for me! Bri bri, you've MADE my first 7 months at uni stand-out amazing. What would I do if I couldn't come to your wealth of american dating knowledge?!

  • not all english are lazy i am a student i work 2 jobs do 15 hours lectures and have placements as well which can sometimes be 40 hours a week
