[Holy Sh*t Reaction lol] Rammstein - Du Hast Live in Paris Reaction 

Sarah is extremely perceptive. Yes, they are covered in fire proof gel. And, yes, Till is certified in pyrotechnics. And, yes, it gets REALLY hot at a Rammstein concert. And, yes, they have to tone down the pyrotechnics in the US. At the concert I attended Flake (treadmill guy) was sent out crowdsurfing paddling a rubber boat. They are unique.

Rammstein formed in 1994 and 27 years later the band still consists of the 6 original members, which is quite unique.

Flake, the treadmill guy, is not only a musical genius and the backbone of the band, he is also a very funny and highly intelligent person. If one hears interviews with him, one can only describe him as a philosopher. The role he plays on stage is mostly the comic freak and he plays the role so well. I just love him.

flake walking on a treadmill are the most normal thing in Rammstein

Only Rammstein can bring 10s of thousands of frensh people to shout fanaticly in german... Biggest accomplishment a german band can achieve! 😁

Aaaaaaaaaan RU-vids most used sentence ever is: Is he on a treadmill?

It made me laugh when she said "The treadmill guy probably said "can I be a part of your band?". The truth is they asked him "would you like to join our band?" and they never got the answer :D

The sheer fact that Rammstein, a german band that almost exclusively performs their songs in german, gets to fill stadiums full of people singing their songs for them in France, the UK, the USA, etc is just so mind-boggling. Less than a century ago there was so much bad blood between those nations and look where we are now. Sure we have little jokes at the expenses of other nations but it's in good humor and while the internet has a few places that are really bad as a whole it just brought us more and more together as humans.

i can confirm, if you're in the first 10 rows of a Rammstein gig you get very warm, amazing when you're there, Til is a trained and licensed pyrotechnician

The lyrics actually are very clever (maybe not as clever as other Rammstein songs, but still) , it's just that most intricacies get lost in translation. Till (who writes pretty much all of the lyrics) is a brilliant lyricist, a true poet even. His lyrics are characterized by interwoven layers of metaphors, plays on words, double meanings and references to literature, culture and history, all while using a writing style that appears simplicistic on the surface (just like Rammstein's music in general: their standard musical structure is very simple, sometimes even repetitive, but underneath they touch on very deep subjects. To me, they are pure Opera) . Till's style is so unique that I would recognize his stuff anywhere^^

Greetings from the UK. Sarah, the band members are some of the nicest, most fun loving people in the industry. Til especially is known for taking time to talk to fans, even on the street. He is a kind and thoughtful person. Rammstein are one of the best live bands, ever. They are an experience that you will never forget. Their look is like Kiss, just to be different from mainstream. Listen to more of their songs, watch more of their videos. Enjoy.

The singer is a fully licensed pyrotechnic who overseas all the pyrotechnics on set. What you see is amazing to see live. I saw them first time in London 20 years ago and it was just unforgettable. This band is iconic. You need to review more of their music

It's the other way round, the rest of the band begged "treadmill man" to join, and he refused at first. Then they told him that they would split if he would not join. So he did...

The lyrics are German wedding vows except they said no at the end of the vows. They played on the fact that the German words for "Have" and "Hate" are homophones. Du hast is you have. Du hasst is you hate.

''Have you been on vacation lately !? You look so well tanned.'' ''Nope. Rammstein concert, first row, last saturday.''

I've been at the very front and centre of the crowd on the barricade for a Rammstein show. The heat from the flamethrowers is intense, was shocked I still had my eyebrows after the show.

Flake is on that treadmill because he said he doesn't like to hang around on that stage doing nothing and - no reason to worry, Till (the singer) is a certified pyrotechnician

Roses are red, violets are blue, if I listen to RAMMSTEIN my neighbours do too. Thank you for that 😂

Seeing Rammstein live is amazing! The best show I've ever seen. They were the only band that played that night, and they played for like 2 and half hours! So much Pyro.

Till is a licensed pyrotechnician, which is why they can get away with such amazing pyrotechnics. I need to see this band live before I die.

parts of the lyrics get lost in translation. "du hast mich"(you have me) is pronounced the same way as "du hasst mich"(you hate me), so it's playing with that double meaning

As far as I can remember, Flake was always nervious on stage, and started walking around. But because of the Pyrotechnics, it was to dangerious. And so, the treadmill was introduced.^^

For the most insane pyro show ever you have to check out their performance of "Sonne" (multicam) in Saint Petersburg 2019!

It actually takes a lot of skill and vocal control to sing like that. He's a master at it.

Don't know if you will read this more than a year later but the singer (Till Lindemann) is actually in private a very quiet introvert that will put on a stage persona to fit the performance. But he's really a huge, gigantic teddybear.

Rammstein has to be seen live, because they are a weapon there and the incredible crowd control is a trademark of them and no matter in which country they play, the audience sings in German like in Paris.🆒 The action with the fireworks did not even take place in a stadium but in a hall ( Palais Omnisports de Paris-Bercy ) and would be unthinkable in America due to their immense safety regulations. If they go on tour there, the fans miss out on a lot and will never get to see many effects ! By the way Til does this specific move, called "Til Hammer" cause he had dislocated his knee before a concert and repeatedly hit it in the backstage area to bring it back in. The other band members found this movement totally cool so that he he adopted it for the stage ! Apart from the fact that Til is a trained pyrotechnician, at Rammstein concerts a special stage worker is very close to the stage and is connected by a microphone to the person who controls the fire. He feels the temperature on his cheek and gives corresponding instructions whether you can still step it up a notch or the flames have to be reduced. Another pure madness with with the audience - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-fAaIFUXj4-8.html At another concert Til greets his band members, who are carried back to the main stage in a rubber dinghy , with a "Welcome - Sign". A political statement for the refugees who have drowned by the thousands in the Mediterranean Sea. Please look at the live performance of "Ich will" - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-QkBPoGCPE04.html - "Rock am Ring" is one of the biggest festival events in Germany. The Ring, which we say, is the legendary Formula 1 race track "Nürburgring"(The green hell), located in the middle of a central mountain of Germany, the "Volcano - Eifel". Rammstein was the Headliner and there are more than 85000 fans on the target line and I was right in the middle 😜 and not only the few thousand hardcore fans directly in front of the stage answer Til's questions, but actually the entire audience down to the last row and to have been there and to feel the concentrated energy of the audience was just indescribable ! At some point Ramstein discovered that you can make up with instant coffee. According to concentration, black to red spots appear, which looks like dirt or blood. Flake was hyper nervous all the time during an earlier tour. What did he forget ? That he was made up with lots of coffee in the evening during every concert - Maybe the reason why he needs a treadmill 😉 ? But without Flake Rammstein would never have been what they are. Again and again he is only moved into the nerd corner and underestimated enormously. What most people remember is only the treadmill he is running on while playing. Most of the Rammstein pieces are backed by a mostly inconspicuous but sometimes bombastically symphonic sound body combined with techno elements and so much more. It´s done so cleverly that it is hardly noticeable in the foreground. But if you take it out of the equation and mix it away at the mixer console, the rest sounds almost like any metal band. Together with the typical Rammstein monster guitar riffs the keyboards in the background fill up the entire sound, make things round, and not at least because of this Rammstein sound so unique ! Please check it out - ​​ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-IjGNTqAW58E.html - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jRxW5Vzeo0A.html (here you can see Til flying) Exactly this concert in Germany took place about 20 km from where I lived and you could still hear it over a hill in between and see the light show flickering in the distance. You could clearly experience the sound level at which Rammstein are traveling 💥🤯 This melodic sound together with the unbelieveble power that Rammstein brings over is also to be seen here - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Uq41Fmw5CGI.html Totally whacky. Richard Kruspe tells the story in an interview on the DVD "In Amerika" released in 2015. First the police arrested Paul Landers off the stage and then one by one, the sound became thinner and thinner as the other band members were arrestet and at some point he put his guitar down and turned himself to the cops. For Rammstein, who had come together in the former GDR, the left dictatorial eastern part of divided Germany, America was in their imagination the "land of unlimited possibilities" in which you can do pretty much anything. After a night in jail they know that it was a really stupid idea to perform anything like that in a big city in the "Bible Belt" - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pRXkDYTSAj4.html - 😱😉 In Germany, this kind of thing doesn't upset (almost) anyone anymore - we're a little more relaxed there. Rammstein pieces are pure energy and if one can keep his butt still while listening, you should see a doctor as soon as possible 🤣

The electricity coming from the keyboard is very real. Ever heard of Tesla? The scientist not the car. That's the reason he's on a treadmill.

What's truly amazing about this performance is it's in Paris, with a crowd singing along to a German song, in German.

Hall Owner: "How much Pyro will be there?" Rammstein: "Yes!" Hall Owner: "Yes?" Rammstein: "Yes! We burn the whole place down!"

I've seen them 3 times (2 outdoors, 1 indoor), and they fire that at every concert. There are actually some wires that drags the flares above the Crowd and back again (I don't know the details more than that). The Fireproof gel, is what makes them look dirty because a mixure of the gel, sweat and residue gives them the dirty/bloody look. Till Lindemann (you pronounced it correct), used to be on a short list for the Olympics, but fell short., and as you can see he have kept himself in shape. I do believe Rammstein & Sabaton looks somewhat familiar, the way Joakim/Till roll's the R's. They banging on the knee (Till did it because at one point he dislocated his kneecap during a show and he "hammered it back, and have continued to do that. The reason Flake (keyboard guy), is on a treadmill is because he have so much energy he cannot stand still, and with their crazy amount of fireworks, he cannot run around randomly on the stage, so the solution is a treadmill.

I’m just here for the “is that a treadmill?” and “what’s he got in his hands?”🤣Flake (“treadmill guy”) has said he doesn’t like standing still. He has a “dance” that he does during weisses fleisch, and there’s more interesting moments of him for you. He and Til (singer) also often have a stage act that can range from lighting him on fire to til resting his head on Flake’s shoulder

Next step would be Rammstein - Sonne (2019 concert) - if you want even more fire.

Till is an awesome lyricist. Thing is there are lots of double meanings in his songs. He is super talented. He also gets stage fright. I think a lot of his antics help him deal with it.

Rammstein live is something you never forget once you get to experience it🤯

"Keyboard guy" Flake Lorenz is the same age than the others. He often plays "the butt of the joke" in their live shows and videos, but he's an incredibly nice guy and talented musician who brings so much more to the music than is visible in the live shows.

Du hast live in Paris was crazy , I just watched it for the first time today and I think it’s incredible performance especially pyrotechnic wise , the flames and the fireworks

Till (the singer) has PhD in pyrotechnics so everything is allowed on their shows 😅

Yes Sarah at the Paris live Videos there are 30 Cameras - it was filmed for Cinema DVD ... with a professional Film Director and 2 Yrs post production and you are right with the 80´s Synth Sound (do you know the Band "Kraftwerk"?? Flake didn't want to join the band at first he found the music boring "Ich tu dir weh" live at Madison Square Garden you will love it

The Singer is an certified Pyrotechnichen!! So Till knows what hes doing.

First off, that keyboard player is pure frickin gold! Also, I read that the singer was actually shy, so he got his pyrotechnics license, so people watched the fireworks!

Was directing the band to the backstage on Roskilde Festival back in the dayes, sitting on Tills motorbike. He was so sweet! 🥰🥰 Greetings from Denmark 🇩🇰🇩🇰 …and They performed the best concert that year!

Now you have gained a LITTLE insight. And your wife is right again, probably more than she herself suspects. Flake stands out from the others and he is the comic relief character of the band. In addition, he is always the victim in the performances. The big guys on the little ones, so to speak. Watch "Mein Teil" (my part) live and "Ich tue dir weh" (I hurt you) live madison square garden. You two will notice what I mean by that. You will have a lot of fun and of course be amazed. 14:40 Don't worry, no child will put together such a big stage at home and then blow it up. 😁

More Rammstein Dudes 🤘🤘

Therefore you can buy after a show of Rammstein a T-Shirt written on it: I survived a Rammstein concert. Rammstein is the best live band on earth by fare. No band in the world can compete with Rammstein when it comes to showmanship and pyrotechnics. I'm nealry 60 and I saw them all. Stones, ACDC, Queen, Metallica, Kiss, Iron Maiden, Manson, Slipknot and so on. They are all poor prescholars compared to rammstein when it comes to showmanship and pyrotechnics. But also the lyrics are deep and Rammstein riffs are very famous. In many movies you can listen to Rammstein Soundtracks: Matrix, in different Resident Evil movies, Hellboy, Mortal Kombat, Lost Highway, Nymphomaniac, xXx - Triple X with Vin Diesel, So High, Lilja 4-ever , Possession and so on. A Rammstein concert ist a life time experience, you will never forget. Even Kiss members begged for ear plugs, during a indoor Rammstein concert backstage. The music and the explosions were way too loud for them

He's a certified pyrotechnitian, he does all the pyro for their sets, sets the timings down to the T for the music 👏 it's just insane 😂

Yall gotta react to Ich Tu Der Weh from Madison Square Garden. Pyro is awesome

Rammstein is my fav to see live, and yes i did see nightwish

Every du hast review that I’ve seen: “Is he on a treadmill?”

“Is he on a treadmill?” EVERY. TIME. 🤣

it´s pretty smart to link this to the 80ies. in the end, rammstein is a very very heavy pop-band.

To see them live is incredible…Till and his pyrotechnics are freaking amazing… Flake is so fun to watch

Great reaction, would be cool if you reacted to this one: Rammstein: Paris - Wollt Ihr Das Bett In Flammen Sehen?

I was at their show in 2012. IT was terribly hot. I think i lost some hair there. 😂

Great!🔥🤘 Next react to Rammstein's "Feuer Frei" live!🔥🔥

‘Du Hast’ in German actually means ‘You Have’. This song is possibly about questioning marriage, by the denial of the vows. 😄🤘

It's kind of sweet how you think about the tretmile-guy. Actually they wanted him to join the band and he took almost a year for his decision to join. So its the other way around :-)

The lightning IS legit. He's wearing a faraday suit and is controlling a Tesla coil using the keyboard effects.

If you think this was cool, check out Remmstein - Remmstein Moscow 2019 the stage effects and pyrotehnics in that one are out of this world

"Ich tu dir weh" is a great Performance and a great show. The Lyrics are also much better.

Your faces when the pyro starts were just priceless :)

Rammstein, to me, is like the musical embodiment of German expressionism. They have lots of horror imagery that they combine with techno and heavy metal. It's just very cool and unique. They also have a very wry sense of humor. I really enjoy the song "Amerika". It's so cheeky.

Great Reaction! Was waiting for you to do this song

Till Lindemann the lead singer is a pyrotechnic expert in real life

Check out Rammstein "Wiener Blut" One of their best performances

"Meanyhead" Sarah fixated on 80's nu-wave keyboard friend from high school with treadmill and lightning fingertips. You guys crack me up. 😂

I've seen alot of metal bands live over the years and have seen rammstein twice and they were the best two shows I've ever seen and yes you feel every note played through your body for the whole show

Every band member is now a certified pyrotechnician and has the safest show using fire on Earth. Pyro is also Manually Done !!!!

Hola' Tuffnuts: First of all, Welcome to the Rammstein family...You're now ONE OF US! Till Lindemann: Lead Singer (Former German National Swimmer) Richard Z Kruspe: Lead Guitar (also the founding member of the band) Paul Landers: Rhythm Guitar Oliver Reidel: Bass Guitar (also the band's tallest member at 6'7") Christoph Schneider: Drums Christian "Flake" Lorenz: Keyboards I've been a fan since their inception in 1994 and have been to 18 of their concerts around the world. Rammstein fans are without a doubt some of the most rabid, dedicated and devoted fans this world has seen when it comes to music, if you have the chance to go to a show, GO, do not pass it up.

"Du Hast Mich" translates to "You have me".... So... It's a love song!!!

Did you even notice the drummer wearing chainmail? Rammstein is known for its Pyros! Lead singer, Til Lindenmann is also a licensed Pyrotech Expert. Noticed that they are covered in gel. Gel protects the band from being burned. Reason for Til being licensed Pyrotech, there was an incident with some in the audience were burned from failed pyros in 1996. Til works with a crew of technicians make sure all pyros are safely designed. Fans of their shows can feel the heat from their pyros.

As you know Til is a licensed pyrotechnician. There was an incident occurred in I believed in 1996 when people gotten burned. Since then, band has a specialized crew of pyrotechs designed and build stage props. They worked with Til on displaying the props safely. All members of Rammstein are covered in fire proof gel for their protection. Flake The Keyboardist participate stunts with Til like with the song called Mein Teil. Warning: this song can be offensive for Sarah. Mein Teil in German means "My Part or My **** I have to censored myself. Song is about cannibalism. Based on a famous criminal case occurred in Germany. It is up to you watched and react to this song. Rammstein always sing about their country, Germany with historical or criminal events.

I can't wait to see Rammstein again in September !! After the lock down it will feel so good to see one of the greatest live shows ever.

Ive come across a few Rammstein (ram-sh-tine) reviews and this has by far been the best with the unedited reactions. Love it keep it up 🙌❤️

wow that stunned mouth open gap is the best reaction that i have ever seen to the indoor fireworks part of this video

I worked with the band back in 2005 and the pyro tech had the t-shirt wich had a print: "I work with the pyrotehnic, if you see me running -try to keep up..."

LOVED Your reaction!

In case of Rammstein, precise translations of the lyrics is hard work (and sometimes not possible in subtitles), because they are playing many times with double meanings of words or slightly modify common German expressions and symbolic language pictures to invert or change their meanings. That is even used in the very simple lyrics of "Du hast". The first three words are "Du hast mich" (you have me) which at that moment doesn't make any sense in German. But it sounds (intentionally) the same as "Du hasst mich" (you hate me). Later in the song, the first three words are extended to a full sentence: "Du hast mich gefragt und ich hab nichts gesagt." (You asked me and I did not answer.) And then, to show what he was asked, the chorus is a wedding vow: "Willst Du bis der Tod euch scheidet treu ihr sein für alle Tage?" (Do you want to be faithful to her for all days until death do us part?) This is answered first by a kind of female voice "Ja" (yes) and afterwards by Till's harsh voice "Nein!" (No!). These - plus a slightly obscene word play on the wedding vow, that I will not explain here - are the whole lyrics (repeated a few times).

Yes, they are a little older... Till is 58 years old... youngest member is 49, I believe...

Many years ago, a friend of mine ended up at an after-party with the whole of Rammstine. She said they are wonderfully nice people and very down to earth.

Don't panic Tom and Sarah. Til is a real licensed pyrotechnician.

"im hope you all deliver on those comments here" Till hold my flamethrower...

After a concert you can buy T-Shirts saying „I survived Rammstein“ so…. it gets hot in there😄

It's very funny. Flake (the keyboard player) describes and introduces himself as "guest musician" although he is in the band for so long.

The vocalist is actually a licensed pyrotechnic, he's the guy behind the pyro show.

Last Concert I was, they set Flake on Fire. Always Fun to watch them

"Is he on a treadmill" -- Every reaction video to Ramstein in Paris.

Cracks me up. Literally everyone: is that dude on a treadmill?? Lol

Your wife was right, Till is a trained a Pyrotechnician . Rammstein formed in the mid '90s they've been recording since 1996.

Hahaha! You went silent real quick.🤣 Rammstein is a must live see.

Funny thing is, as graphic and extreme as Till comes off live and in videos, off stage he's one of the most extremely shy guys you'll ever meet!!

Have a look at the Channel of educatedmarine. There are all known Rammstein Videos with Subtitles

I watched the whole 2hrs 8mins of this concert last night and it’s insane Paris 2012. Prob the best live band to see for the show

Du hast is there first big single in the states. It has become a stable for their live shows and still gets some of the biggest pops after 20+ years.

It’s a dual meaning. It is. You have me and also You hate me. The song is deep.

Saw Rammstein twice in Montreal , the show is insane !!

He is actually a professional pyrotechnic 🔥🔥

Fun fact about keyboard-guy, who's name is Flake: the others kinda begged him to be part of Rammstein instead of him begging them. He said in an interview, that the music and the live performances would've been too generic for him to be entertained doing it, so he added comical elements like the treadmill to his character.

thank you for trhis video.

The electric Flashes are real. Highest Voltage but only some Milli-Ampere. Experiments like this you can see at Universities. ;)

I will be there next year July. Front and center, in the Feuer Zone (the Fire Zone), so damned ready to have my eyebrows singed off! Ooh, yeaaahh!!
