Jesus, narrator's voice is very boring.

[rewboss]

@frozone8 Naja, wenn man die Wahl zwischen Scheiße, Müll und Schrott hat, fällt die Entscheidung schon schwer.

[projetliberte]

I'm going to Hamburg in 4 months to study "Volkswirtschaftslehre" at the "Universität", I'm so excited !

[DerekBondo]

I think people are being a little harsh, but I would suggest killing the sound from some of your video clips where it was windy. It's a distracting noise.

[Inspektisto]

Miasto bardzo ładne/jak wszystkie niemieckie//byłem w nim dwukrotnie/ale zbyt duże jak dla mnie.Odpowiadają mi najwyżej /do zamieszkania oczywiście/ miejscowości liczące od 500000-1000000 mieszkańców.

Salutas al cxiuj el Pollando!

[Timbo92]

This is the most unbelievably shoddy video I have ever seen in my life. Absolute SHITE. You are the most boring bloody person I have ever listened to in my life (and I've heard a speech by Gordon Brown). You talk about the QM2.. why the fuck do I want to know about the fucking QM2? I wanted to know about Hamburg you tosser. Shite video, SHITE narrator. Fuck sake I am so angry. Fucking woeful.

Thanks for uploading! I learned a lot about Hamburg from this video. Danke!

[61diemai]

The name "Hamburg" , originates in the name "Hammaburg" , the name of an early Christian settlement founded during the 9th century , located a bit south of the inner city shopping malls ,........."hamma" is a term describing a tree-covered hill protruding over marsh land , ......."burg" means as much as "castle" .  greetz from Hamburg , 61diemai

HAMBURG BEST CITY !!

hamburg meine Perle

[cocko999]

great post.....thanks

[latengocomoburro]

Hamburgers did not originate in Hamburg, they are american, there is no argument about that, look it up.

[rewboss]

@latengocomoburro There are huge arguments about it, because nobody knows. Sure, the dish we all know as the modern hamburger is American, but where did the idea of a ground meat patty originally come from? An American city called Hamburg? Visiting sailors from Hamburg? Is it a descendant of the German dish variously called "Frikadelle" or "Boulette"?

[latengocomoburro]

@rewboss I recognize that the meat patty might have come from Germany however the combination of bread, lettuce, cheese, etc. Originated in the USA, go to Wikipedia and read about it. It was a big mistake of the Americans to call it Hamburger. Its like saying that spaguetti is not italian because the noodles originated in China.

[fwbz]

@latengocomoburro Well - 1. reading Wikipedia I can found many times "exact origin is unknown" and so one. Also it mentiones many first or second Generation German Americans - and a first Generation immigrant is at least as German as American. And 2. Wikipedia is great - thats clear but it is nevertheless tendentious and often quotes one-sided or unscientific/trivial sources. - So I would say - the origin is uncertain but the origin of the name seems certain -->Hamburg.

[rewboss]

@fwbz Ah yes, but which Hamburg? There are a couple of Hamburgs in America.

[fwbz]

@rewboss True - but these Hamburgs are all named after the German Hamburg and were mostly settled by German Americans - at least in the first time of its existence ;-) So - if it comes directly from this Hamburg or took the detour over a "little" German American citiy - in the end the roots go back to North Germany ;-). But of course no one denies that the Hamburgers are associated with the USA. - By the way - I am no fan of McDonalds. :-)

[diemutterfuckerdie]

@rewboss it is accualy a german dish for poor people where they put the "sonntags braten" in to the oven again on monday and put the hot meat into a piece of bread.

[Freyja1133]

@rewboss The Hamburger was brought over to The United states By german Immigrants from Hamburg ,Germany the fankfurter was brought over to america by German immgigrants from Frankfurt germany

Why don'y you watch the HIstory Channel sometime?

[germanman3826]

@latengocomoburro What did you use? Wikipedia? :P

[cloudyskies15]

i am from hamburg and i've been living in munich for a few days. this vid makes me feel really homesick. excellent! :) i love my home town, and you show it beautifully. thank you for that :)

[whoiszizou]

magnificent city

[go2dive]

very nice video, but only the normal tourist things are to see. next time show the beautiful districts of Blankenese, Eppendorf and Ottensen with lots of amazing old houses, show the beautiful park downtown "Planten un Blomen" and so much more. not only harbour, city hall and st. pauli. that´s boring.

[Baronof92]

Hamburg meine Perle <3 :D

I just love to life in that city :D

[IdaMae86]

Liked it! I am a pround inhabitant of this town. :) <3

[ABBCCC86]

Awesome video. How's the traffic over there? I hope it is better than the traffic here.

[aandrebs90]

when was this video shot? was it in july/august?

what's the weather like in hamburg? i hope not like london, they're quite close..

[HamburgCity21]

Love this...the Reeperbahn should be shown at night!!!!

[eyckman]

very nice! i am from hamburg and this video is really good! greetings from this beautiful city =D

[Gameinggames]

lol seen that ship in Saint John Canada

[rewboss]

You mean the QM2? She does get around, doesn't she?

[Sugartalker]

That was really well done man! Very pro. I love Hamburg. No mention of the Beatles with St. Pauli and Reeperbahn. Tisk tisk. I had my first exposure to Django gypsy jazz in that red light house ship in the harbor there. As a fan of fast and intricate guitar playing, that music blew me away.

[rewboss]

Unfortunately, we didn't get all the way to Beatles-Platz, and I kind of felt that saying "This is where the Beatles honed their skills before becoming famous" while showing pictures of strip clubs and peep shows might possibly have given the wrong impression.

[iainirv]

Brilliant, abosolutely brilliant. you have sold me the holiday. How long did it take to film, record edit and voice over?

[rewboss]

I cheated slightly on the filming: although most of it was done on one day during an 8-hour walkabout, I did the boat trip and a few pick-up shots a couple of days later. Editing must have taken 4 or 5 hours, and maybe another hour to find all the music.

[iainirv]

Thanks for the response. I really feel like i need to get into making vids for youtube. I have no real excuse not to. Got a video camera and a mac. Just need to sit down to it. Thanks for your vids you have been an inspiration.

[rewboss]

Go for it. But start with very simple videos: it takes time to develop the necessary skills.

[iainirv]

yea, i think i will do something simple to begin with. I think i will maybe record playing guitar or talk about technology. Some people say its a good idea to respond to what people have already done on youtube. Other people say to record yourself in short sections so that viewers dont get bored. Whatever way I do it; i feel that there is a need/want .

[stuartyboy78]

I just missed you, Hamburg was the last stop on my mini tour of Germany, i left there on the 14th Aug., great video, great city!

[SoLuiPi]

Shorter hair would fit much better for you!

[downhill240]

Wow! This is professional grade work. I can't believe you can't syndicate these types of programs to Television or perhaps local tourism groups! This was the best over-all I've seen, Video and audio. Your voice over was both informative, and structurally sound.Even the music worked. Great production Sir! I can't believe I missed Hamburg way back in the early 60's when I was in the American army stationed in Paderborn. It's beautiful.

[Gravedinger]

nice :D

Mir scheind du hast momentan urlaub :D

[rewboss]

Schön wäre es...

[TheGearsKeepTurning]

Cool! I never knew how diverse some cities could be... I thought they were all modernised.
