OT: Top Gear VS the Germans

Post by Kerensky »

So the German racers arrive in German cars. The British? In Spitfires. Yea, THAT Spitfire.

This show... is amazing.
Also, probably one of their funniest clips:

I haven't laughed that hard in months

Thanks Kerensky.

I evidently have to start recording Top Gear
....that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain.......and that government of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth.

The comments of the video are also hilarious. On of them says in German:

"-How many wars have been won by America?
-All of them, except for Vietnam

-And how many wars have been won by Germany?
-Zero"

Not quite true, though - ask the French about 1871. Of course, they may be neglecting the wartime achievements of Prussia.

For the non UK members of the forum, Jeremy Clarkson's humour should perhaps be explained. He deliberately spends most of his time dealing in stereotypes, very un pc comments and generally trying to annoy everyone, he is either loved or loathed. I'm a fan, just because he breaks the mould of an increasing po faced society.

... and the war against Austrian Empire of 1866... But I guess the joke refers to the XX century only. The best thing about this joke, is that it was written in German, so it means that the Germans aren't so humorless at the end... :wink:

It`s funny and very well presented, I love even the title.

"The Germans..." sounds like just a bunch of people, like in the film "Gladiator": "I present to you ... the barbarian horde!" :)
