I speak both English and German. This video made me laugh several times :) Obviously the 2 Germanic languages are quite different. I would think German is more "original" and English is a borrowed language. Personally I love German more.

We are singing. "what are you sinking about?". He confuses "sinking" with thinking. that's a German stereotype, most Germans know the difference. I told my Mom about this video. It would be dangerous if it were real, because of the misunderstanding. No one could save the ship captain.

I haven't seen this for over a year and it still makes me laugh out loud. I'm a linguist but in Spanish and French, but I love hearing verbal puns in any language
