The Schleim expression makes more sense when you consider the verb "schleimen". Sucking up to someone, trying to impress him in a greasy, slick, slimy way means "sich bei ihm einschleimen" - literally "sliming up to him, greasing yourself into his good graces".

Ironically for an also sort of lighter salad (compared to the rather heavy potato salad with mayo instead of vinegar) have a pasta salad with salad cream, tangerines, curry and tuna (with the sweet/vinegar base from the cucumber/tomato salad as base so it's not as thick of a cream), works surprisingly well together.

Additional information on the bridge demolition: there were houses nearby, so that the bridge had to fall down perfectly. Only 1.5 meters on each side were allowed as „additional landing place“. The houses nearby were also protected by shipping containers, that were filled with water (I think) and they put lots of soil as a „pillow“ on the ground to protect everything around as well.

There was actually even a whole company beneath it that they had to secure and clear out because it was too dangerous with some of the chemicals in there. For anyone interested, the bridge was called "Rahmedetal brücke"

Exactly guessed! That sign is a temporary sign they put up when there was a sudden roadblock like an accident or a dangerous jam. You can see the official orange Road-construction-car behind it that carries the sign. They can also display lots of different things if needed
Cucumber salad definitely is a thing. Its mostly done with cucumber slices, oil/vinegar, dill and other herbs like parsely. Some people sweeten it but I dont like that

Statistically, Germany has one of the fewest traffic fatalities in the European Union (World's 12th safest country in %), although germany is the only country without a speed limit (on parts of the highway). Thanks again for your entertaining video :-)
Some of the German drivers go to the car as Dr. Jekyll and become Mr. Hyde at the wheel. Then they behave like agressive beasts. After getting out they are again the nice neighbor from next door.
The road sign is mobile. At the time, the bushes along the roadside were being trimmed.

The "Old German Beerhall" in Milwaukee looks more "typically Bavarian", not "typically German" (Yeah, still differences between Bavaria and the rest of Germany) ;) One thing I would count for whole Germany: It's much too bright in there. Our bars are more "gemütlich" (cozy, placid, snug) from the light used there. It looks more like a beer tent on Oktoberfest or a turkish living room than a German bar.
I say McDoof for McDonalds, meaning McStupid.
The car simulator game is actually from like 2012, but now a lot of tiktokers make videos with it. It looks so new because it’s getting constant updates. The game is called beamng drive

The bridge that was blown up was on a very important north-south highway in Germany. It was not very old, completed only in 1968. But the traffic, also with heavy trucks, has increased extremely. Many bridges that are only 50 years old are dilapidated and have to be blown up. This is a huge problem for the German infrastructure.

Yes and not only for the infrastructure, the people living near these bridges, in this case like me, are affected so badly by all the cars and trucks driving threw the city because of the traffic jams, loud noises, air pollution and damages to the streets
Remove the ceiling fans and the tv screens and it might pass as a German beerhall.
6:32 funfact HB stands for "Hofbräuhaus" the brewery of the (bavarian) king's court and they make amazing food! if you visit munich .. a must visit ("Hofbräuhaus" or "Hofbräukeller" [different location same owner])

Ryan, I'm so proud that you pronounced Porsche correctly. GG
They are clapping because nothing of the rubble parts hit the house next to the bridge
In my Region Schleimscheißer is just negativ word for a kid. And What he means is called a Schleimer!
7:01 They are drinking "Kleiner Feigling". It's a very popular fig liqueur. And for some reason it's some kind of tradition to knock the bottle on the table a few times before you open and drink it.
the Beer is "Münchner Hofbräu" and according to the Bierindex it is ranked as Drinkable. The use of the "kleiner Feigling" (fig schnapps) is correct. the TV should be showing FC Bayern but at least, the sticker is there.
10:40 It was the _Rahmedetalbrücke_ in my city of birth... _Lüdenscheid_ It has to been demolished, because it was so heavily damaged, that the *Autobahn* A45 has been closed for more then 1 and a half year. And it is a very important connection between the west of germany with the south-west.
My guy is so integrated, he even gets German HelloFresh codes.
cucumber and potato salads are very wide-spread in germany and also the best kinds of salads.

Cucumber Salad (Gurkensalat) Is 100% a Thing here in Germany.
Cucumber salad can be awesome. My dad makes the best 😅
Cucumber salad is a real thing and goes great with potatoes, fried fish and a glass of Riesling white wine.

The bridge demolition with controlled blast was amazing, until they were told it’s the wrong one
2:42 It's not only animated, it also yells at you over CB radio channel 9: "Achtung Gefahrenstelle!! - Uwaga strefa niebezpieczna". Nevertheless, these things are the most dangerous place on the construction site. They are always new because they don't get old. On the A2, they hung behind rental trucks because they have fully comprehensive insurance and are cheaper than a Unimog.
The German bar looked like someone had one day to decorate 2 containers kitschy and then hang up a few TVs.
Mixed salad, cucumber salad, tomato salad, we have even carrot salad. Speaking of which, have you ever tried carrot cake?
So, at least here in eastern Germany, cucumber salad is THE thing :D I work in a small food company and one of our biggest products is actually cucumber salad :) i don't know anyone here around who doesn't eat it. Everyone has their own recipe, but my grandma makes the best one ;D
I almost burned my kitchen down to ashes along with the entire house by forgetting I had a pot of water on the stove. ^^' I feel you on this one. ^^
You would feel safe driving with a German, because over here you spend so many hours learning how to drive with a driving instructor (and it's quite the investment...) The thing they are doing to the small liquor bottles ("Feigling") is tradition and it's why these mini-bottles are called "Klopfer" (translates to "knocker") the rest of that clip ... let's say it's more accurate than most other American things I have seen branded German. Cucumber salad is a thing, my German grandma just uses a dressing of cream, vinegar dill, (sometimes chives or finely chopped onion) salt and pepper and it is delicious.
Of course the bridge explosion in Lüdenscheid was trending on TikTok, of course xD That bridge has been the bane of the area's existence. Good ridance, let's hope there will be a solution for the infrastructure situation here soon.
The cucumber salad is very much a thing. Often served with lot's of lemon juice mixed in.
Cucumber salad is definitely a thing in Germany! .... although I only know it without any creamy dressing, just cucumber with minced onions and a dressing of vinegar, oil, sugar, pepper and salt.

Slimeshitter isn't as random as it sounds. One (derogatory) verb for "brownnosing" in German is "to slime" (the idea is that you're lying so disgustingly, your lies are covering the other person in slime). We used to say "Don't slip!" if someone was brownnosing too much, because they were sliming so much they'd figuratively leave a trail of slime.
