Leider haben sich ein paar, sagen wir Ungereimtheiten eingeschlichen ABS für Seilbahnen = Bachmann, aber ABS wurde schon viel früher entwickelt Da wären Hallot, Wesselt, Bosch und dann eben Bendix aus dem dann das Dunlop-Maxxaret-System für den Jensen FF hervorgegangen ist. Hubschrauber = Focke, bei allem Stolz über die deutsche Luftfahrt, aber da fehlen eine Menge Namen. Lomonossow, Taylor, de Ponton, Lodygin, Kress, Ganswindt, Jurjew, Ellehammer, Karman, Berliner, Oemichen, Cierva, Pescara, Zaschka, Breguet ... die und noch viele mehr haben an der erfindung des Drehflüglers speziell des Hubschraubers großen Anteil ... Fockes FW 61 war der erste der Autorotation konnte. Hans Pabst von Ohain teilt sich die Erfindung mit Frank Whittle ... Axialverdichter vs. Radialverdichter ... nur Ohain hatte Förderer und Whittle musste mit Bremsern kämpfen. Die Deutschen haben schon einige Dinge erfunden und entwickelt, aber man sollte die anderen findigen Köpfe auch nicht vergessen.
Americans: "Our language is the best in the world." Brits: "Wait a minute, it was my language first." Germans: "Did you guys know that we invented it?"
Thats why one of the most popular linux systems is called SuSe linux (due to the spelling of Zuse's name 'Suse')as a tribute to the inventor of programmable computers. As well not mentioned bicycle (Freiherr von Drais), Otto Engine (when Diesel mentioned, makes no sense not to mention Otto engine which is used in most cars), rotary engine (also called Wankel engine by inventor Felix Wankel), motorcycle (invented by Daimler), car (Carl Benz), jet plane (by Messerschmitt using the jet engine by Hans von Ohain), rocket (Wernher von Braun), telephone (by Philip Reis, not like mostly told Graham Bell!!), aspirin (by Felix Hoffmann), nuclear fission and atomic bomb (by Otto Hahn) just to name some more ..
@@konstantinrheker4671 The jet engine was definitely invented by Frank Whittle (British) long before the German read the paper that Whittle had written and had been patented in 1930. The only reason it was not built and put up in the sky was because the British government would not fund it and then WWII was going on. The German was not the inventor of the jet engine.
@@valeriedavidson2785 uhm jaein. Two engineers, Frank Whittle in the United Kingdom and Hans von Ohain in Germany, developed the concept independently into practical engines during the late 1930s.
@@StrikerGTXR Frank Whittle patented the jet engine around 1930, a long time before your German got involved with jets. He published his findings for all to read. Look at Wikipedia. He WAS the first. The first programmable computer was built during the war years. It was a secret at the time. Britain was the inventor.
The printing press was Germany's most important invention and probably one of the most important inventions in human history. Without the printing press, the enormous scientific progress from the end of the Middle Ages would not have been possible. I would rank this invention with that of fire and the wheel.
The printing press is defintively the most important invention of all times. I think without, we wouldnt have a such high standard of living as we have today.
@@M0ralAp0stel Our whole scientific advancement and the education system, which made the progress in first line possible, is based on the printing press. Therefore, the good Johannes was voted the most important person of the last 1000 years...
the leastt important the printing press WAS invented gutenberg only put reusable letters to the game thats it not a realy too big thing and not realy too much of a new thing
@@ndrstrappyes and printing was not a new thing he just addet the exchangable letters thats it he did not invent anything he just changed a proven konzept not a big deal i will say that his change hat a huge impact but still it is not a big thing just a small change to a working system that had a big impact thats al oh and by the way at first it had pretty shitty impacts it was one of the things that caused multible wars enslavement colonistation all that fun things
Despite all criticism, Germany is still one of the most efficient and innovative countries in the world. We in Germany always say that you can still improve a perfect product. You could continue the list of products that were invented in Germany indefinitely. In Germany, a product is always considered a kind of work of art that can be improved again and again. Hence the name German Engineering Art. Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪 🇬🇧
From the air pump and the first artificial vacuum (1649/1657), to powered flight in 1901 (Gustav Weißkopf) in Connecticut, to the liquid rocket and computer in the 1940s, a countless number of German discoveries and inventions, or decisive improvements, have driven development. After all, 88 Nobel Prizes in the natural sciences till the end of the 20th century didn't just fall out of the sky...
thats only a small fracrion. some other big inventions cars, motorcyle, bike, computer, tv, glider, otto motor, amonia synthese, aspirin, rockets, electric drill, electric train, jet planes, glow bulb and telefone(not patented) hertz waves and so on
I'm always so triggerd when people call the telephone an american invention. Yes, Bell did get the patent for it but he stole a few things from Johann Philipp Reis (the real person that invented the telephone). He just didn't have the money to get it. For me aspecially, it's very important to point that out.
^^ well it also wasn't Ford who invented the car...the same goes for the jet engine...but Carl Benz invented not only the car, he also invented the boxer engine
Röntgen, wollte eigentlich nicht, dass die Entdeckung, nach ihm benannt wurde. Deshalb überall die Sache mit dem X. Aber wenn ich mich recht erinnere, hat der Kaiser das persönlich entschieden. Und deshalb vermutlich im deutsch- sprachigen Raum, Röntgenstrahlen. Und für diese Entdeckung, gab es auch den ersten Nobelpreis in Physik.
The German Konrad Zuse invented and build the first computers, presenting his first fully digital, programmable computer (the Z3) in Berlin in 1941. The Z1 prototype had still been mechanical. He build a number of other computers after hte Z3. Sadly, most of them were destroyed during the Second World War. In 1945 he fled with his family from Berlin where he had been born to the Bavarian Allgäu and could only save his Z4. He founded the first German computer company, the Zuse AG, years before IBM. His company was initially successful; in 1950 he was persuaded to install the Z4 at the university ETH Zürich (in Switzerland) where it became the first ever commercial computer worldwide, several months before the ENIAC group installed the UNIVAC I for the US Census Bureau (in 1951). But sadly in 1961 Zuse had to sell his shares due to debts.
The Germans also invented the countdown for the flight to the moon in 1926. Yes, that's right. In the radio play "Peter's Moon Trip" the numbers are 3, 2, 1, go! Then Peter is shot at the moon with the cannon. But Wernher von Braun was also a native German and developed the moon rocket. He knew the story from his childhood.
@@nightstorm5914 question: is a hybrid car something else then an electric car with a fuel-engine? ^^ BTW, ' would have though something about the sterling engine made 1st response.
@@BR618 Hybrid can be a combination of multiple things, could be also a car that has a tank for diesel and one for hydrogen and that can use both. Most hybrid cars are either an electric car with an additional fuel-engine for higher speed or long distance travel (called plug-in hybrid cars) or it could be a fuel-engine car with a system that recoupes electric energy when braking and other actions that normally would waste energy, which is then used to fuel an electric engine to reduce fuel consumption. (mostly know just as hybrid cars)
There even is a german invention which is central to private life of nearly everybody. I'm speaking of the Linde-Technique. It has an interesting story. In one of the world wars, Germany was caught off the route to South America. That, to this time, was the only source of nitrogen to make fertlilizers, but also things like dynamite. So some man thought and saw, that there was much nitrogen in the air and he invented the Linde technique to liquify the nitrogen of the air. And now the kicker: With the same technique behind it, modern fridges and air conditionings are used.
Haber Bosch Process not to forget and Justus Liebig for the discovery of phosphate fertilzer . Linde for refrigeration, Siemens for electric trains, ... so much stuff.
Hi! Also a blessing: Emil von Behring developed a healing serum for diphtheria and tetanus in the year 1890. This was an extremly interesting time period! Greetings from Germany 🙂
But you forgot many more important inventions by Germans like the computer, the telivision, the fridge etc and incredible inventors like Einstein, Von Braun, Daimler, Benz etc. You really have to remake this.
The computer, television and fridge were not invented in Germany. The computer was invented in England and made practical in America. The first public demonstration of artificial refrigeration was in Scotland, again made practical in America. Television was also first invented in Scotland by Baird though this was mechanical, electronic television was invented in America by Farnsworth.
The telephone wasn't invented by Bell.It was a man from hesse called Reis.He invented the fone about 20years be4 bell even thought of it.The 1st sentence transmitted over the thelephone was the horse doesn't eat cucombersalad.
We're watching this Video on our Computers, right? So remember one more very important german invention: The Computer itself! Konrad Zuse invented the legendary "Z3" in 1941. The first full functional Computer with floating point algorythm. Unfortunately it got destroyed during WW2.
@@valeriedavidson2785 your 'computer' was a calculator for making it easier for banks.. zuse was the guy who inventioned the first programmable computer like we know and have today.. with chips and the binärcode.. it's not the same.. also the tv was starting with the germans and the 'braunsche röhre'... the jet engine i don't know
@@Zamera91 All three are British. First programmable computer was done at Bletchley Park intelligence centre during WWII. Alan Turin was the genius who broke the German code. John Logie Baird is considered the inventor of TV. He was the first person to get an image on a screen and the first regular TV service in the world was from London in 1036. Colour TV was also achieved in England. The first jet engine was done and patented by Frank Whittle around 1930 in Britain although it was not built until wartime. His findings were published for all to see. He was the inventor. The world wide Web was done by Tim Berners-Lee from Oxford, England in 1990. Britain has invented more things than any other country in the world.
Inspired by William Herschel's discovery of infrared rays, Röntgen was curious if there are more invisible lights. He started to experiment with techniques to generate such and make them visible. The result were x-ray systems that looked like spooky Frankenstein creations but worked basically the same way today's x-ray scanners work. If you ever visit western Germany you should make a trip to Röntgen's home town Remscheid and visit the Röntgen Museum. 😊
Reminds me of 2 British "inventions", nothing like the inventions you are talking about : sandwiches named by Lord Sandwich and wellington named after Lord Wellington ..... both are extremely useful for everyday life - lol !!!!
Just started following your channel today - you really are very much fun to watch. You seem really sincere, likable and excitable without seeming to naive 🙃😊
germany is big in inventions for Music and film. Germany also invented the synthesizer and created the first electronic music. A lot of big companys in music business are german. Rode, Adam, Sennheiser, Beyerdynamics, Neumann and so on and so on

@@valeriedavidson2785 Telephone, 1861 - Johann Philipp Reis (german) TV 1886 - Paul Nipkow (german) jet engine - that one is tricky since Frank Whittle (Radial engine / british) and Hans von Ohain (Axial thruster / german) both build invented different kinds of jet-engines in the same year (1937) the first one to fly was the one from Hans von Ohain in 1939, while it took Frank Whittle till 1941 for a plane flying with his engine. Today we use the Axial thruster from Hans von Ohain, so it's mostly german. Computers, while the first mechanical automated calculating machines, have been invented by the brits, the first digital computer was build in 1941 by Konrad Zuse (german)
In the city where I live, the car, the bicycle, the rocket plane and the electric elevator were invented. That's still impressive for me, especially because I'm a noob in engineering :D
Its not only one invention which i miss here, but one is very important - Computer - Konrad Zuse invented the Z3 from 1938-41 - it was the first realy working and fully free programmable Computer - this is in my eyes the invention which did most to all our lifes
@@m0lDaViA The Z1 and Z2 was fully mechanical and because of this not fully functional, the really first full programmable and functional computer was the Z3
I did meet Konrad Zuse in 1985 around in German Museum in Munich, my company did rebuild his Computer (Z3) for the Museum and on opening day he was there and we talked about it, he himself said to us that the Z1 and Z2 was not!!! Fully functional and they was the way of learning for him what to do other in Z3, which was the first full functional computer (his words!)
If you ever visiting Germany, go to the German Museum in Munich. That gives you a good overview of what we are, what we made and our culture in technique.
Roentgen found xray beam by fluke. He didn't know what it was at first and he just knew it was a ray penetrating his wife's hand and creating an image of it on a metal plate. He called it x ray because he didn't understand its source. The name stayed. 😊 I teach this to my students in radiology.
X-rays are not only good for medical usage. They are also used in technical applications. For example checking railway wheels for cracks or internal fractures that are invisible to the bare eye. Such damage is usually caused by fatigue, so the wheels have to be checked on a regular basis. After the 1998 train disaster of the ICE "Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen" (coincidence?) in Eschede, caused by a fractured wheel, the regulations for testing the wheels on trains were increased massively. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eschede_train_disaster
If you are even slightly interested in X-Rays then you should definitely check out Nick Veasey. He is a British photographer based in London who works primarily with X-ray images. He x-rays everything from a shirt to a Mini Cooper to an airplane in the hangar.
I miss German inventions like cars (Carl Benz), bicycles (Karl Freiherr von Drais), refridgerirators (Carl von Linde), Computer (Konrad Zuse)… or check the inventers Heinrich Göbel, Johann Philipp Reis. Werner von Siemens invented dynamos, Manfred von Ardenne invented TV etc.
yea we just lived for centurys just day by day and waited.... we just waited for the age of technology and then we said: that´s it. lets go^^ btw, nice shirt
X-rays in Gemany called after its inventor "Röntgen" Röntgen called his invetion "X-Strahlen"/x-rays One of the first x-rays was from the hand of Röntgen's wife with the weddingring.
Did you know that the "Common Rail" Diesel engine was invented in East Germany (GDR)? It was world-unique, other people copied the idea, and the idea is still used in modern times. Now they try to tell the german people, that Diesel engines are the pure evil. And they punish Diesel car owners with high fuel prices and high taxes! That's NOT because of the environment, but because of political ideology! By the way, Diesel's first engine was run by Peanut Oil. He wanted to make power affordable to poor people, and make Europe independent of mineral oil. His circumstances of death are still a mystery...
Did you actually know, that about 50% of the American population have got german roots? Also there are way more Americans emigrating to germany than the other way round Btw the English are german, too 😅 I know, they try to deny it, but its true
The Printing is from China but the letter printing is from Gutenberg. The chinese was printing whole sites carved in wood. Gutenberg has further developed printing. I am from Mainz too. We are really proud of Gutenberg so we learn something about him in school.
Mainz, Gutenberg's town, is pronounced my-nts, not may-nz. Things like that can be looked up, and that's what I'd expect from people making documentaries. Wikipedia even reads it to you! mp3, well, I remember that mpeg 2 recorders were used by radio reporters, and they were EXCITED about it. With the low bandwith data transmission lines that were common in those days, they finally could transmit their recordings to the studio without physically handing over a tape. That added speed and flexibility to broadcasting. I also like "ice coffee", or "Eiskaffee", but in Germany, it's not like what you maybe imagine. It's cold coffee with a bowl of vanilla ice cream, and cream on top. In summer, that's very refreshing and, of course, delicious. You can make it at home, so try it! Oh, and the x-rays. We call them Röntgen rays in honor of the inventor. I think he's earned it. Oh, and his name was just Röntgen, not "von Röntgen", as they say here. He wasn't part of the nobility. -- And one personal experience: I once had a difficult and multiple fracture of my left femur, due to an accident. Thanks to x-rays, the doctors could fix it just fine. Without, I don't know how or even if I would walk today.
in a way Germans did invent the Microchip driven by need of miniaturisation on their way to the Apollo program an associated vessels as well as the exploration of Space in general
Bevor the 1st World War, X-Ray was called Röntgen Rays, but after 1918, they renamed this to X-Ray so it didn't sound german anymore. Because those bad Germans could not have invented such a helpful technology.
Germany also invented the car. The first computer. The radio. Big milirary invention like the forst jet fighter. The first objekt in the space. The first rocket with a engine. The forst stealth bomber. And bomber with stealth technology. Also the glowbalb is german. The first split of a nuclear core was also done by a german. Chose your favorite. Chose your inventin waisly
When the "tape" recorder was invented, they had no tape yet. So they recorded on a steel wire. Luckily the magnetic tape was invented later. And there is no X ray, saying it is X, something we don't know. It is a Rontgen ray, as we call it. But as the Americans can not pronounce Rontgen they named it X. And who invented the Geiger counter ? And who is Ampere and Volta ?
Lol the better questions is: how can anyone NOT know that germans invented the X-Rays ? Inventend in Würzburg, Bavaria and the Mainstreet there which is around the Central Station is called "Röntenring", because in germany the X-Rays is called "Röntgen-strahlung"
good coffee? in Germany? No, no, everyone here drinks (filter) coffee, but unfortunately it's not good at all :D For that you have to go to Italy, Greece or Turkey, for example.
also to mention and not to forget rockets bei Wernher v. Braun, wings-only plane Horten IX 229, jets with the Me-262, the first programmable computer ZUSE -1, fusion reactors (Otto Hahn), automobiles (Carl Benz u. Gottfried Daimler), and many mor things. we've had pretty dark and evil 12 years in german history and world lets us pay for that til today, but we also gave the world hundreds of inventions that made life better for blllions
Oh konrad röntgen yeah. But didn't marie curie research x-rays too?! I mean she died of cancer cause of exposure to the radioactivity. Can't remember what exactly she researched, but I'm fairly sure of her c.o.d.
The Germans have invented way more but it was the scientists under the Nazi regime that are responsible for one of the most crucial inventions. Werner von Braun had created the jet engine which was promptly adapted for the first ever fighter jets which were unbelievably faster than any other plane at the time, and he also used this engine to create the first jet propelled rocket V1. After the war, the Americans did not put him on trial like the other Nazi officers, instead they used his know how to give life to the NASA program where he worked on several models including the largest ever Saturn V. Fun fact, the Nazis did not just create crazy weapons such as a rifle that could shoot around corners, or an actual sound cannon (an idea that was later adapted for the movie Dune back in 1984), the Nazis also created the VW Beetle, they invented 3D viewing which led to 3D cinema, and they also invented Fanta because they could not get their hands on the ingredients to produce Cola. However, Germany is less famous for its inventions in contrast to its scientists and their discoveries amongst whom Werner von Braun is but one of them who moved to the states. Albert Einstein fled Germany along with many other scientists, Robert Oppenheimer was born in the States but his father was from Hanau in Hessen and those are just the ones who left. There were more quantum physicists here such as Werner Heisenberg (quantum theory having also been discovered in Germany) and then you also had other areas with names such as Ferdinand Moebius. I could go on but Ihave been rambling on way too much as it is. However, though Germany has a lot to offer, there are other countries such as England, France, Italy, Greece, China, Japan, Egypt, United States and a couple more which can also look back on many an invention, thought or discovery.
Another inventions or better creations made by Germans are: advertising pillar / "Litfaßsäule"/ Modern Advertising, known as "Reklame" was developed in Germany in the early 20th century. Also Lagerfeld said that Prêt-à-porter was created in a famous way in Berlin, not in Paris. So some other stuff too. But actually I dont care. May the German character is something more talented for inventions and creations, but there are so many silly Germans too. The basic German character is to be critical in anything. May be we are never happy with any results and always want to be better. But at the end, I would throw away any invetion back to nothing if we will finally find a way to live in peace together. But history always restarts.
With the japenes we invided also the cd .. a normal cd is 75 minuts long .. why ? The japenes had the System for it.. the german said only if its posibile to Listen to Beethoven.
Yeah, germany was always kinda leading when it comes to technology, science, industrialization, mechanics, electronics BUT altought these inventions were made in germany, not all the scientists were born in germany I think right? It's like with operation paperclip kinda, but not necesserally cause of wartimes
GUTTENBERG's Press is the by faaaaar most important invention in human history, simply without it, NO OTHER invention would have even be ... invented, bevause noone would have had books & magazines and newspapaers to LEARN FROM TTHHEEMM!!!
What you call gas engine here is called Otto Motor after his inventor Nikolaus Otto, then the Jet engine was also invented here, the nuclear fission, which led to atomic bomb and nuclear power plants, the heart and thoracic surgery, the minimaL invasive surgery of heart and arteries, lungs and skeletal joints and the whole abdomen, al without cutting the skin , all german inventions .Rockets to getting practical use. The " no crossing highways" ( Autobahn), The telephone years before the american patent, was here m but did not ask for a patent in that early and not much international trade. Not to forget the Television after Braun, who invited tube for it, and it was first used for transmitting TV the 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin.Oh i forgot rust free steel , artificial fertilizer , Aspirin and many, many ,many other drugs, the first cooling and freezing machines by Haber and Bosch( Yes that Bosch), the electric generator and -engine by Werner Siemens and so on, and so on.
