I used to live in Flogsta (the place where people scream out of the window) and yes, it is true, but as someone already said, it is in Uppsala, not Stockholm. The general rule was that you were allowed to scream for a few minutes at 10 pm to relieve stress related to studies. People didn't scream every night but it was still frequent enough that you started to use it to tell the time. Many people didn't scream because of stress though, but rather to join in on the fun. At a few occasions it lead up to a pretty impressive choir of screamers. It was great for students who had moved there to study since it provided a sense of community.

Healthcare in Sweden is "almost" free at point of use. It is free for all children. Adults have a yearly maximum of about 120 USD for treatments (matching the price of 6 doctors visits, if you go more often then that, the rest is covered) and 220 for prescription drugs. Over the counter drugs have regulated pricing, but no cost cap, so if you need anti-histamines or other drugs on a regular basis you are better off trying to get a prescription. Once you hit those numbers, the rest of the 12-month period is covered. So if you get really sick you will never pay more than about 400 USD a year for everything. And that is without insurence. Dental is not covered, although it is completely free for anyone under the age of 20. After that you can choose to have an insurence or pay as you go. I usually end up paying around 150-200 USD a year for two visits, but it is cheaper than my insurance would be.

@cecilialeitet2794 Год назад

@Snurres Having actually resently been critically ill and in need of life saving treatments, I couldn’t disagree more. (And to your second point: I never called it free, I called it free at point of use, very different!)

Fun fact about the origin of “Sweden” in Swedish! (“Sverige”, if you don’t remember). Sweden, before it was one big country, was mainly a kingdom called “Svea Rike” (then naming Svealand, it was right there in the middle). If you say “Svea Rike” really fast in Swedish, it sounds a little like “Sverige”!

@tilltugg Год назад

During WW2, Sweden didn't have all that much of an army.... So seeing that Norway and all those other countries got ran over.. what would be the best choice of action to protect the people? Yes, there is controversy in all that happened, but I remember being a kid in the 70's and 80's, and during summer this Norwegian family would come visit my grandparents... Every summer. It wasn't until later I learnt that my grandparents (And their family) had taken these people in as they fled Norway during the war.. and that friendship lasted for decades. I myself can sometimes think that sweden could have done more... but Sweden DID do a lot of covert stuff to help the allies.. There are plenty of documentaries about it. So... in all... I think Sweden went with the least bad choice. (Yes, I'm Swedish).

Lapland (Sapmi) is an area across the northern parts of Norway, Sweden, Finland and Russia. Finland have opened a Santa Center in Rovaniemi (In their part of Lapland) Santa Claus in Sweden is not like in the UK. No fat man in a red suit, chimneys or raindeers. In Swdish tradition he's called Tomten and he lives with the household all year talking to the animals and watching over the family. If you have been nice to the animals and had good behaivour all year he might show up in his greybrown clothes and red hat on the 24th of December to give you a present, especially if you give him rice pudding with butter. Nowadays the tradition has been sort of fused with all the american influence of christmas movies But nevertheless a lot of Swedish homes have a miniature staue of a grey liitle Tomte somewhere in the house all year around.

@Dan-fo9dk Год назад

Sampi (Sami land) covers the mentioned areas ...yes ....but Lapland....no.... Unlike Sweden and Finland does Norway not use the term Lapland. The term lapp is condescending. I know that Sami people in Sweden also think so ....and don't want to be labelled as lapp.....but Sweden don't care. While Norway was the first country to sign up in 1990 on ILO/UN convention 169 on minority/indigenous rights has Sweden not done so yet..... after 33 years.... ....so LKAB just can do their business as usual....

Yes, up North often the sun never sets and it's gained the name "Midnattssolens land"("The Land of the Midnight Sun"). I mean the purpose of dynamite was first and foremost to create a more safe and stable explosive to use in places like mines and such. Before you had a lot of nitroglycerine and similar explosives which could potentially explode if dropped and it constituted a massive occupational hazard that would continually claim lives. Alfred Nobel's father Immanuel experimented with nitroglycerin and in an accident it killed one of Immanuel's sons(Alfred Nobel's brother Emil) and was allegedly one of main reasons that drove Alfred to develop dynamite. In the Garbo bit his pronunciation of that place was so weird that I couldn't understand it, turns out he meant "Hötorget". Wait... Santa? In Lapland? No idea what you're on about, mate.

It s only far up north it s colder than north England. But you have snow too over there. Scandinavia is not the north pole. But up north in Norway, Sweden and Finland the winters are tough. Snow, ice and freezing. Sunlight only up couple of hours aday in winters. But summer there is midnightsun. Daylight 22 hours . Northern light in the winter. Scandinavia is not so different from northen England. Our culture and people and system not so different from Britian. Remember the vikings conquered British land for a while long time ago. Norway has always had close connection with UK. Especially in the 2. WW and after. The norwegian king is from the british royal family. His grandmother was a british princess.

I know we also cured meat with salt and put them in cool cellars that looks kind of like hobbit steadings hehe (you can see them everywhere still and for some reason they really freak me out) but I guess that was meant for warmer seasons

Not 100% sure but i believe there is a rolling 1 year cost ceiling for hospital costs and prescriptions of around £99 (1 300 SEK). This basically includes anything hospital related except for the dental category. To clarify, you will never be charged more than £99 per year for hospital expences in sweden. For dental i believe many have a £5-10 ish monthly insurance, or dental procedures can cost a couple hundred pounds (not sure if thats expensive or not comparing to other european countries or not). Keep up the reactions, love it :)

@SailorYuki Год назад

It's correct. The cost cap is very useful if you have many medical issues. You can get subsidised dental care but only if you qualify (like have a medical condition that causes dental issues). Medicines have their own cost limit, but they're on a sort of a step system. Going from 10, 20, 40, 50, 70, 90 100% discount, depending on how much you've paid so far.

But there is a lot of reductions and deductions befor one get the last tax decision! The median salary tax is actualy 27%! In my healt care region one pay 100 sek for every visit/for every night at hospital.. up to 1200 sek for a 12 months period! For prescripted medecin one pay full price for the first.. up to 2400 sek for every 12 month period! Dental care is a bit more expensive.. it kind works the same way, at first one pay full price, then when the bills start to rise, one start to pay 50%/25%/10%, for a 12 month period! And in my healt care region there is a grant of 1200 sek to use.. mainly becuse they want people to visit a dental nurse for examination and plack removal.. befor its get worse! Count 1 Dollar/Pound/Euro as 10 sek.. for conveniens, one get the cost picture!

11:14 Our winters are terrible. The sun doesn't go up until about 9:00-11:00 (different depending where you live) and goes down at about 14:00-15:00. At some northern places at sweden, the sun goes down at 12:00 or 13:00 if im not mistaken. At the most northern places the sun never rises or sets (as you saw in the video). Not only the sun, but also the weather. This year we had about 1 meter snow in average. The snow often got mixed with rain, which made it even more depressing because it was almost impossible to go anywhere. At the end of the winter, when almost all the snow rains away. We have "Översvämningar", which means that the land is covered with water during a longer time period. At one point, there was about 2 decimeters full of rain almost everywhere in the country.

Oh, and also (didn't see any comment on that) - that about ppl screaming 'their lungs out'..? Maybe it's just me - but I've never heard of that, so called 'phenomena'! ;-)

Not me singing along to the background music lol, also a traditional winter day consists of the sun rising at around 12 (10 if you’re lucky) and going down at around 15-16 (3-4pm for any Americans) so around 4 hours of sunlight, that’s 20 hours of darkness every day every winter

In the 1970s and 1980s quite a few heating plants were built, and today, when we are careful about garbage sorting, there has been a lack of garbage to burn.

Flogstavrålet (Flogsta scream) is actually in Uppsala and not Stockholm and yes it is true. It started with (what some say) with a student screaming out his anxiety about 40 years ago, and since then it's a tradition 😅

I can't remember all the questions you wanted answered and I'm sure by this point most have been answered but: The one about health care. There is a cap of 300sek/visit (today) and as I recently went through therapy, I learned that there's an annual cap as well (1200sek at the time) which meant that when I reached that, all visits within that 1year period were free of charge

Universal health care in sweden covers hospital bills (You have to pay 250 sek for a visit (approx 30€)) and if you have healthissues by something its covered for this sum. (it will be applicated on each visit). You will have a max cost for around 2000 sek/ year, all visits after that is covered by the healthcare. When having prescriptions you get to pay a maximum of 2000 SEK/year (unless they have changed any of this max costs), after this "roof" is hit all prescriptions are also covered by healthcare. Dental in the otherhand is expensive here. You get a fund of 35€/year and can have a maximum of 70€ saved to your account. This is primarly the fee for checking up your teeths, if you need to fix something its not too uncommon to pay around 4-6k SEK/ problem.

Sins the the upload is from a month ago you might already know this but, the dynamite was invented as a (stable) alternative to nitroglycerine and it is and has been used a lot in mining (one of Swedens largest income sources). :)

14:49 Alfred Nobel made it his life mission to create a safe way to explode stuff after his brother died when experimenting with Nitroglycerin. Before dynamite there was lot's of freak accidents using explosives

I live in a small town called Hässleholm in the south part of Sweden ( landscape Skåne) and in the winter , we only have about 6 hours of real daylight! That`s why so many Swedes gets depressed during wintertime, we don`t get enough sun. The weather can also change very much, one day it`s raining and the next day it can snow a lot!

I live in kiruna and the winter is almost 7 months. So its super dark, But in the summer the sun never goes down.

@yamikage8826 Год назад

I live in Umeå in northern Sweden and during winter it starts to get dark after 2 pm in the afternoon. And during the summer it doesn't get dark at all during the night but the sun does set.

@johanlahti84 11 месяцев назад

As a northern swede. In the darkest season we don't see the sun at all for a week or two. Likewise, it won't set in the opposite season.

I am born and have lived my hole grownuplife i Kiruna, in Kiruna we dont see the sun between the middle of december til the start of january. I moved to the westcoust of Sweden then I realised that had effected me. I enyojed the sun when I was walking on Christmas Eve.

@wallecoffe Год назад

What Alfred Nobel did what find a stable mix for Nitroglycerine and making it stable for use in mining operations, that's why its so dangerous to poke around old abandoned mines with dynamite, the sweating you see is the nitroglycerine leaking from the mix and makes it unstable again. This has then been taken to be more developed and use for other things like demolition and yes ofc war ;/

@mikaelsvensson8346 Год назад

For someone who is born in Sweden this is pretty accurate

@johanlahti84 11 месяцев назад

Dynamite was useful because nitroglycerin was so hard to handle. Accidents were common. With dynamite that stopped.

Regarding ABBA's scene clothes. At the time Artists could make tax deductions forwork equipment. Clothes were however only deductible if it wasn't possible to use them for everyday use, leading to most Swedish artists of that era being covered in sequins from head to toe.

in the summer, Sweden is actually really hot. The average summer temperature is 19-26 degrees celsius, but there is mostly rain. But our lakes and oceans get really comfortable to bath in.

@SwompyGaming Год назад

Dental is free up until the age of 21 if I remember correctly after that you pay around 50-60 gpb per visit depending on what you need done and we have a high cost cap on prescribed meds that is around 200gpb after that its free. going to the doctor is roughly 20 gpb per visit

I'm Swedish and I did not know we invented Minecraft and Candy crush!😮 The screaming out of the window: I've never heard of it. I don't think that's true.

@janiruuska1909 Год назад

Dynamite was mainly used on mining and that was first reason to invent it at all

@Pubbehey1 Год назад

I have a friend that went on a hike and camped outside in the far north, they did not bring any wrist watches or phones or anything. So they had no idea what time of the day it was when they were up there. Kinda a fukt up situation when there is daylight all the time. And they had no idea if it was night or day, (this was before the time of mobile phones). Also, the guy that was part of creating candy crush lives in my hometown, great guy! he invests in the town and local companies.

I have never heard about the Flogsta scream. But, googling for it, it seems to happen. It is a student thing though. The city Uppsala, where Flogsta is situated, is a university city. So yeah, why not?

@user-zf6zn3dz7c Месяц назад

You have to check out Göteborg and Malmö too. Swedens 2nd and 3rd biggest cities. Both located next to water. Malmö is connected to Copenhagen, Denmark by a Bridge

@TheSecondAlmightyPotato Год назад

The Flogsta scream is true, but Flogsta is located in Uppsala not Stockholm

@elvinahlstrom9474 5 месяцев назад

Dynamite was invented for the purpose of having better control over the explotion when down in the mines. As opposed to just having , the very reactive, nitroglycerin.
