[TTKSF]

it's really extremely funny!!))))))))))lol

[77violingirl]

lol this is so funny i could watch this video over and over again and i will still laugh

[hants23]

This is what's being said in German at the start: - Das hier ist mein Sektor. - Das hier ist das wichtigste Gerät des Küstenwächters. - Das Gerät und das Gerät. - Überlebensradar! Translation: - This is my sector - This is the coastguards' most important device (also could mean instrument or tool) - That device and that device - Survival radar! Judging by how broken up it sounds, it's obvious that these are a few snippets from a long conversation.

[weirdguy75]

@hants23 Thank you for translating. My german is poor as hell these days.

[SirAapo]

I'm Finnnish, so can somebody tell me what is that music what plays the end of the video. I've heard it so many times, but don't know what it's name...

[iconner85]

@SirAapo

Its called "Ode an die Freude" from Beethoven. It is also the Hymn of the EU so I'm a little disappointed in you ;)

[languagenut5]

@SirAapo It's called "Ode to Joy". It was written by Beethoven.  :)

[EikC]

Oh, and if you keep pressing 7, he starts beatboxing into the microphone. VERY unprofessional if I do say so myself!

[EikC]

I think the real reason he's unwilling to help is because it's obviously a British ship.

Think about it... :)

[eliteswordsman1]

@EikC just cause hes a german hes not a nazi okay? germans are perfectly regular people nothing wrong with them

[refragerator]

@eliteswordsman1 well i'd say we're more german than normal, but you're right in saying not all of us are Nazis. Still too many are though.

[fluffy0788]

this is actually great for german learners of english to show them the different pronunciations... and it's sooo terrible to be recognized so quickly because many germans make that mistake as we don't have this consonant, but it's still hilarious!!!!!!! ^^ *rofl*

Hallo. What is your sheep thinking about?

[zygia]

@ssmusic214

[sinks for a second] ... Meh..

[StefanKahler]

@ssmusic214

..."sinking about?" ;)

[ghenulo]

@ssmusic214 Only German has both those sounds. However, it lacks both the voiced and voiceless th sounds, which makes it hard for native German speakers to hear those sounds.

[captainkpeanuts]

lol this is just....ah i love it!

[EvilPotHeadAngel]

ive been discouraged from joining the Coast Guard, if anyone IN the Coast Guard can inbox/msg me, i'd reallllly love it. I wanna know if what im being told is true, or not... so i can join already!!

[stewartx5]

This commercial is especially funny for me. I was once in the US Coast Guard and have lived (worked) in Germany for some time. Years ago, a young business associate sounded almost exactly like the young man in this video (looked similar too). He was a very nice guy, but his English was atrocious (part English, part German, and part something in between), forcing me to mentally translate nearly everything he said. Of course, his English was actually far better than my German.

[TheKourosh1990]

what are you sinking about?

German wins

American fails

[ColesyM]

@TheKourosh1990 The other side is british.

[baileybushey]

@TheKourosh1990 becase the german have ballz to do stuff im german and trust me hitler had ballz to to have new world order

[WayneTre]

Why the hell is he trying to speak into a radar anyway !!! Radar are for locating ship position, what you need to talk to ship is actually called a Radio...

[spinglasshydra]

And some people don't think German's have a sense of humor....!

[kerrycindy]

@spinglasshydra I sink this comercial was from sweden.

 . .

\__/

[kcegr]

why? Goethe is a german name....

[Jorgenstor]

Haha, so Germans can't pronounce Goethe.

[crazy0christoph]

@Jorgenstor

Well.. obviously they can, it's just that English speaking folks can't

[LostDeadSoul]

HAHAHAHAHA :D That is a GREAT misunderstanding :D

[jennyfromtheblog30]

ahahaha!!!!!!

[ynet2931]

That is so funny!!!!!

[neillian1]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA­HA

LOVE IT

[JazzInc]

I laughed so hard I cried!

[Schrammich]

i am from germany and i can't stop laughing :D:D

[Lollykitty94]

I showed this as an example for advertisement in my english lesson... the reactions were hilarious :p

[SNAZ101]

Well of course it's funny. It's making of fun of two different languages. Not two different ethnicity's. Replace the two with different countries and the joke would still be funny

[Jorgenstor]

If Germans can pronounce words like "Bibliothek," why can't they pronounce "think"?

[pustebluemchen79]

@Jorgenstor

because the pronounciation of th in german is different from the one in english

[ZhengmuWang]

I bet most people like this video can't speak German.

[RevisitedWand]

I'm not German but I love their language.

[jimilimijimi]

as a german i can say that.. it's true that our old people are talking like that, because they just didn't learn it right, but people under 40 don't have that "slang"

^^

[sumboyo]

brilliant.....

[cybertekxp]

I liked the part were people died

[staycalmadmitnothing]

i'm German... I thought it was hilarious...

[guntruckfahrer]

it is an ok commercial. but I have to mention that germans are more open minded to speak an other language than people from france for example.

[gwenifredd]

Love!!!! Ahhhhhhahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahaahahahahah­ahaha

[fsteyn447]

If you are German you won't like it, if you are anythin but german enjoy!!

[iwantahat]

@fsteyn447 sorry to disapoint you but germans do laugh a lot about this - it's even made by a german advertising company aimed on german customers ;)

[Softair33]

@fsteyn447 im german :D and i love it :P

[Andy690122]

It almost killed me :-))))))

[alpha123465]

[GokuFan13]

@TehIrishItalian Our Security teacher (I am in training to be a guard) showed us this and we laughed our guts aswell :)

[sicktoilet]

Guy:Hello? I would like to order 3 pizzas please.

German:Hallo? Zis is the German Coast Guard

[chanctonbury63]

Improve your German?

[o0Slipdisc0o]

Lol at the comments about "thinking about sinking" !!! Please people, the whole commercial is just a stab at people (Germans in particular) not being able to pronounce the "th"" letter combination properly, turning it into an "s". It's a thing the Germans and the French share (offcourse not all of them). Ever saw the Pink Panther movies?

[mrshutter45]

@o0Slipdisc0o Sorry but we are moving fast in to Spanish...YIKES!!!

[mrshutter45]

@o0Slipdisc0o I am German as well!

[fistof555]

@chronocentric67 Very good! Just a couple of things to think about...

Those stupid Germans!

Too stupid to speak any English!

Wait a minute... I am a German guy in the US... all my friends in Germany speak some English... but no American ever speaks German.

[TainDK]

@fistof555 I am Danish, speak English and a bit German like most Danes... How many German ppl speak Danish.. less then half as it has little impotence... Like German to English...

[ToviaPicoru]

@chronocentric67 Ich bin Amerikaner und ich spreche Deutsch. :P

[tiooso123]

I do. If you are a German living in the US, your grammar should be much better than what you demonstrated in your comment.

[chronocentric67]

@tiooso123

also wenn dein DEUTSCH besser ist als mein ENGLISCH, dann hab ich ja Respekt vor dir,

ansonsten.....EINFACH MAL DIE FRESSE HALTEN !

[tiooso123]

LMAA

[chronocentric67]

@tiooso123

now that's what what i call exquisite knowledge of the german language.

very impressive....

grosses Maul - nichts dahinter

[TainDK]

@chronocentric67 I lige måde i forhold til dit danske og mit tyske!

[Algerianbrahim]

[SQMiller]

@mrbomholtz - I think he meant that because they were sinking, they were thinking that they were sinking.. as redundant as it sounds. they were thinking about sinking.. xD

[hsv1909]

@mrbomholtz Noo ;D?

[URWillEB]

[BigDTexas]

There laugh yes the chickens!

[rosmarinusofficialis]

@saxoncheif Why are the English so lousy at spelling in their own language? The Germans reinforce the deckchairs with steel so that they won't collapse when the English on holiday get up just before noon and sit in them, Saxonchief.

[Riegel2222]

[annascott2000]

ooohh, i love that accent! Even though english isnt my mother tongue my friends and i use english to communicate because i cant speak german yet :( their english is flawless but we all have our accents, this is slightly exaggerated but it is hilarious...i'd like to see one made for portuguese speakers!!
