The book featured in this video is ISHMAEL AND THE RETURN OF THE DUGONGS by Michael Gerard Bauer. Buy the (HILARIOUS!) first book in the series, DON'T CALL ME ISHMAEL: http://amzn.to/dtsNl8 The band playing the song is Gone Fishin', and most of them are seriously German doctors.

In which John describes what he did on July 24, 2010, the day of Youtube's Life In a Day project. He spent most of the day walking around Munich, Germany trying to find a watch for his wife and a present for his son, but there were side trips to bookstores, churches, and a women's soccer game. The day ended with an extraordinarily awesome concert.

  • I love these videos, they're exactly like John's books, the perfect mix of intelligence, humour and brilliance.

  • looking at the church, I kept trying to figure out how I'd climb it in assassin's creed

  • This is so awesome when you're from Germany :D

  • I find it extremely coincidental that Hazel went to Amsterdam to meet her favorite author, and one of your fans met up with you in Munich.

    Europe inspires me.

  • If you look in the background of the late few seconds you can see that John has the book Matched by Ally Condie.

  • I love Munich. I fell in love with Munich while doing a three week study abroad program for grad school in which we worked at that very castle, Schloss Blutenburg. <3 And I too hope that we still have castles and music and stories in 500 years.

  • I honestly almost cried watching this o.O I hope that our castles remain as well...

  • I dont know why, but I love Johns face at 1:38....

  • I started watching Hank and John's videos about a month ago and now I've discovered I was in Munich around the time when John was. Oh, if only I'd discovered the awesomeness back then and met him.. :(

  • I used to have the same watch as the yeti.

  • 1:14 - How wierd woulden't it be if your last words were "I'm a little bit embarrassed, but mostly delighted". :o :)

  • COOOOOOOME BACK! I mean Munich is not close to Cologne but at least colser than America :o...
