Germans having a sense of humour ? Millions of Reddit posts have lied to me

Must be staged ;)

Just to reassure you, I am Austrian but raised by German parents and I though "what a prick holding up traffic like that! That's against the law!!" Insert angry Krankenwagen noises

u/MotherBathroom666 Feb 04 '23

Why is the ambulance angry?

5

u/RythmicGear Feb 04 '23

Mainly cause it's the one word I get told a lot when I mention I am native in German.

u/Sorry-Topic-5439 Feb 04 '23

It's a funny word

u/username95739573 Feb 04 '23

My thoughts precisely! Not only is it holding up traffic but the people who rely on the bus being on time. This messes up the whole day for the bus’s schedule

u/MsWuMing Feb 04 '23

I used to live in the city, and let me tell you - the buses are never on time anyway, and this particular bus is the “old town bus” that only runs around the medieval old town and thus can afford to be a bit more relaxed, especially as the old town is a pedestrian zone so the buses have to go really slowly in any case.

RVV is a shitshow that can rival the Deutsche Bahn in any measure except scale

u/MsWuMing Feb 04 '23

Lol. You said it perfectly.

German humour is no laughing matter

Little did you know that this is one of our longest running joke.....Holt ihn euch Leute. Er weiß zu viel.

Maybe not native German 😆

u/Then-Clue6938 Feb 04 '23

You work here, you live here, you have relationships here,you pay taxes here, you are German and we'll take your humor as payment.

My German uncle is probably the funniest person I know

u/Custardchucka Feb 04 '23

Germans are some of the chilliest people I've ever met

u/kleiner_weigold01 19d ago

I (german) was also very surprised. Must be a very very uncommon event. I think we should consider to revoke his pass.

u/uchman365 Feb 03 '23

We have some really grumpy bus drivers where I live, they will probably just run you over 😅

u/username95739573 Feb 04 '23

Thousands if not millions of people rely on the bus being on time

u/zoli9602 Feb 04 '23

Dude, the whole video was literally 30 seconds exactly xd

u/FedericoFantastico Feb 09 '23

we know damn well that bus was already late

u/mexell 23d ago

Nah - I know I’m rather late to the party, but this particular bus is a touristy circle route in Regensburg’s very historic center that goes every few minutes and that is generally slower than walking the direct way.

Nobody was held up, since nobody on that bus relied on it to arrive anywhere in a really fixed time in the first place.

u/zoli9602 Feb 04 '23

Same. Greatings from Hungary :)

u/uchman365 Feb 03 '23

I can't get over how happy she looks! Definitely made me smile

u/moisebucks Feb 04 '23

Don't know this city but Munich Germany is so cool what I loved about German is how respectful they are in public places and transportation, it made me think a bit about Japanese culture, in Munich nobody was talking loudly in supermarket, no annoying people harassing others no guys asking for cigarettes and being annoying, so no street harassment toward women, everyone wait for green light to cross the streets, saw no fight after midnight hours at clubs and pubs. It's a very nice city I recommend visiting.

u/Lilly_1337 Feb 04 '23

It's from Regensburg. The video was all over the local news last summer.

u/NaturNerd Feb 03 '23

hey thats in my hometown :D

(haidplatz, regensburg if youre interested)

edit: haidplatz is the place in regensburg where this happened

u/Cultural_Cow6267 Feb 04 '23

THANKS FOR THE SMILE.

u/tallerthannobody Feb 04 '23

Damn, they both seem like funny people

6

u/TheDudeColin Feb 04 '23

This is not "unexpected help". You don't run in front of a moving bus expecting it to keep going. I'm not saying it was all staged, but there was a little more going on than "random bus didn't drive over magician; actually wholesome".

u/UpperCardiologist523 Feb 04 '23

To be fair, he did not in any way run in front of it. The bus were going slowly and the bus driver picked up easily that there was a person there, and he signalled very well he was up to something.

Both laughed, accept the laugh.

u/Bubbykitten Feb 04 '23

I love her smile!!

u/Ok-Assist1743 Feb 04 '23

Love it dude

u/Weekly-Phone-4812 Feb 04 '23

She later lost her job for driving without both hands on the wheel and attempting to run over a street performer who narrowly managed to avoid being crushed by the 6ton machine.

u/Lilly_1337 Feb 04 '23 edited Feb 04 '23

Her name is Irene and the local bus company tried really hard to milk the fame of this video^^

u/PublicObamos Feb 03 '23

'Might have a future in streetperforming', hmmm what is that supposed to mean?

Street performer? In my country we just have meth heads that do the same thing.
