Please consider tracing Klaus Schwab’s family tree! Allegedly, he is directly related to Karl Marx! If you happen to be interested, I can provide some additional details
Some of them were quite pretty/handsome: Philipp the Handsome (son of Maximilian I.), Marie Antoinette, Franz Joseph, Rudolph (son of Franz Joseph and Sissi), Maria Theresia when she was young -> whenever the inbreeding was not so intensive, hahahaha. Greetings from Austria.
So now we need Keith to do a video with a genealogist and trace back as far as humanly possible. It's also possible his last name is a coincidence but maybe theres still a maternal line connection
Everyone comes from inbred ancestry. If you could trace out your ancestry far enough, you will find siblings having children, fathers/mothers and daughters/sons having children, uncles/aunts and nieces/nephews having children. Also, the inbred Hapsburgs where around a few centuries ago, so all the inbreeding would’ve been diluted from outside DNA by the time Keith was born, anyway.
Wait a dang minute! I've been saying this for 5 years now! I even made my husband listen to a rant about how I believe Keith to be apart of this family! Thank you for this video!
Me too! I was googling every year for someone to find out he definitely looks like them! Also because of the eyes. I am from an inbred royal family myself I feel it lol
sure, but while the house of Habsburgs ruled Spain + Portugal, only Charles I (or Emperor Charles V) + King Phillip II had mothers from Iberian-origated houses. Charles I/V's mother was Joanna of Castille, the last sovereign of the House of the Trastamara. Phillip II's mother was Isabella of Portugal, from the House of Aviz. Kings Phillip III, IV, + Charles II had mothers that were from the Austrian branch of the House of Habsburg, through inbreeding. Phillip III's mother was Anna of Austria, also his cousin as his father's niece. Phillip IV's mother was Margaret of Austria, who was his dad's cousin once removed. Charles II's mother was also his cousin, as his father's niece. @@Calucifer13
Just to add something to the analysis of Keiths surname. Hab and Haber don't have the same word origin. Haber is an old word in Austria and the South of Germany for Hafer which means oat. So Habersberger just means someone who is from oat mountain. There are also three towns in Austria with the name of Haberberg so Habersberger probably means someone who is from one of these towns.
When your family looks similar to a royal family or somebody who was famous back then, your surrname often is similar to the royal family/famous person. I have a friend who's surrname is Rudolph because all men in his family look exactly like king Rudolph II. It's funny.
Rudolph is my surname. And Family of this side came from Selisia ( schlesien) today u call it Polen. Not really royal because most of time the royal ppl were called rudolf with f instead of ph
Hahahaha. Warm greetings from Austria, the country, where many legitimate "Habsburger" and presumably even more illegitimate Habsburg-descendants are living......
You forgot to mention that because women have been disregarded as the second sex all throughout history (and likely forever), their last names and lineages have all been lost and overlooked (with the exception of royal blood). I'm sure many a -berg and -burg met, intertwined, and begat ample-faced babies over time.
fyi Berg just means mountain and Burg means castle. It doesn't necessarily mean royalty or even nobility at all. Many places, villages and cities in Germany have 'Berg' or 'Burg' in their name. Most people whose name end with 'Burger' or 'Berger' are just people from that place. (For example, someone from the city 'Freiburg' - 'Free Castle' - would be a 'Freiburger'. Someone from the city 'Meersburg' - 'Sea/Lake Castle' - would be a 'Meersburger'. Someone from the city 'Hornberg' - 'Horn Mountain' - woulb be a Hornberger.). Habersberg is the name of a few places in Germany, all of them are just mountains. 'Haber' is an older regional word for 'Hafer', in english 'oat'. A Habersberger is a person from oat mountain. Surnames weren't always a thing in Germany, especially for commoners. In Germany they started to become a thing from the 12th century and mandatory only in 1875. Very often folks would get their surnames naturally, by being called by their first name and their profession (hence names like 'Miller', 'Smith', etc) or the place where they are from (village/city/place name followed by '-er' suffix). There are exceptions, e.g. my surname 'Hein' is the shortened form of 'Heinrich', which seems to derivate from 'Heim/Hof' and 'Reich'. So, someone with a rich home or a rich/vast court/courtyard/farm etc. Someone who owns land and is the lord of the house, probably a small fry noble without a title (very common thing in Germany btw). My boyfriends surname is 'Klingele' and in his case it is known that it's an old noble family from this region. Adding a 'Le' to a surname is the regional dialect, the original name was maybe 'Klingler' or 'Klingeler', very common surname for knight nobles without a title or even land to own.
@@noshimoshi except its just simply not true, op just wants it to be because of his/her view and just projects that view onto everything, while ignoring the things that go against it.
The difference between Burg and Berg in German is so interesting when compared to English. Obviously we have words such as Ice-berg that imply mountain, but I immediately assumed there was a spelling error in Keith's last name simply because that is so common in immigrant stories in the US, most of us changed name spellings to anglicized versions. My initial thought was that Burg was obviously city and corresponds to the English Borough which is derived from Burg and that berger was a misspelling of the Middle English burgher or a free towns-person which has become the UK English term Burgess. But anyway, it just intrigues me that there was enough spelling consistency in the Germanic languages in that period to be positive that berger means mountain (person?) rather than a misspelling of burger, which would have been much more common as a surname in the English world. Just fascinating!
I think the confusion only happens in English because burg and berg are pronounced the same in English. But in German they are pronounced quite distinctly. Compare it to, say, cat and cut. You wouldn't confuse those words because they are pronounced very differently.
Burg is castle, Berg is mountain. Both are VERY common in german city/village/area names. If a surname ends with 'Berger' or 'Burger' it means 'a person from that Burg or Berg'. There are several 'Habersberg' and even 'Habsberg' places here in Germany, for the most part mountains. 'Haber' is old for 'Hafer' - oat in english. So yeah, very royal oat mountain.
-bury -brough, -burgh, and I think -borough are British name suffixes that all come from this word. Shrewsbury, Middlesbrough, Edinburgh, and Scarborough are some examples of these.
This is totally crazy! I'm a girl that lives in the Czech Republic and I love watching the try guys. This just randomly popped in my ytb recommendations and I do not regret watching. Big thumbs up 🤩🤩
He did mention in one of his videos that he is related to the famous Habsburg family...but I don't know if he knows that for sure or was just going off the similarities in their last names and facial features. He has a geographic tongue as well. I'd love for him to find out for sure!
Not that I think it applies here, but never underestimate the human capacity to make stupid mistakes. Sure, to someone who knows German a "-burger" and a "-berger" are two very different things, but to someone for whom it's just a chain of arbitrary (but identical sounding) sounds, there may as well not be a difference. Like how English speakers call these German sausages "weiners", even though "Weiner" means something like "crier" (i.e."person who cries") in German and the sausages are named after Vienna, or "Wien" in German. Lots of people run around with misspellings of their own (original) name, because people couldn't spell the name correctly and at some point their ancestors or people who just happened to go by the same name couldn't be bothered correcting people. Like I said, with his ancestry traced all the way back to Bohemia I don't think it applies here, but if his family tree stopped at his grandfather and he had already been born in the US it would be a totally different story. It's not a huge leap from Habsburg to Habersberger and one key person consistently mispronuncing or misspelling the name could make an annoyed Habsburg go "You know what? Fuck this shit. Fine, I'm a Habersberger now if everyone keeps calling me that anyway."
My family was also of royal descent (for my family it’s also the chin, but also the nose and ears lol) and my grandfather changed two letters of our last name because he thought it looks better. So it’s possible that his great grand parents thought that too lol (also because the habsburgers were pretty badmouthed in some areas)
My teeth come together with no over or underbite, and I gave a big ugly hateful jaw. It runs in my family. I figured somewhere there was in-breeding going on…but now I see it may just be a recessive trait. I got all my dad’s other recessive traits, including the jaw.
Thanks a lot for explaining the difference between Berg and Burg. It may sound very similiar in english, but the meaning is very different from each other. So it may not be related at all.
At The Queens Platinum Jubilee, there was a young girl, I don't recall whos child she is, but she was in the window with other children and she definitely has this facial look. I wonder if she is of Hapsburgh heritage? I find this very interesting, thank you for making this video, I enjoyed it. Then my husband just mentioned Jay Leno. 🤔 hmmm
Thank You Fran for Not being an Idiot. I really object to people like this who print crap and can't even start by getting the proper name spelled correctly. I wonder if they Know that they look like complete Idiot's? It's maddening for them to try to ACT LIKE they know history and get it All Wrong in front of the entire WORLD !
Mostly like one of Peter Phillips or Zara Tindall’s daughters, Princess Anne’s grandchildren. The British royals don’t have any descent from the Spanish or HRE Habsburgs. By the time the Habsburgs came to prominence with the marriage of Juana of Aragon and Philip of Burgundy, England was aiming toward Protestantism. Mary I did have a Habsburg husband but they had no children, and none of the Catholic Stuarts who reigned married Habsburgs. Then when the Hanoverians took over, they married Protestants from then on out.
Haber is actually also a mundart term for oats. Habersberger might mean his ancestors were oat farmers on/near a mountain where this was a common profession.
As a German linguist, let me expand on what you explained about the names: Haber could come from Hab. It could also (and more likely) come from Haber, an old spelling of the German word Hafer (oat). So that would make a Habersberger someone from the oat mountain - a proper name for a farmer that grew oats on a slope which, looking at the Austrian landscape, is not uncommon at all. Fun fact on the side: Berg and Burg do actually have a common root. The verb bergen originally meant "to hide, to protect hidden inside". A Berg keeps ores and stuff hidden and protected inside the rocks whereas a castle hides and protects people. You can still find that meaning in modern German in the verb verbergen (to hide) because bergen turned into its opposite and today means "to rescue, to recover".
I think that the spelling also depends on how long his ancestors were in czechia because a lot of german surnames were changed and altered due to the difference in languages. Since czechia and south bohemia especially did often switch between czech and german as official language. So that might have altered the spelling.
Omg I've thought about if they were by any chance related because of the last name and similar features. Did not expect someone to cover it in a video 😂
A member of my family has the same jaw. It is genetic, problems both sides of the family. It has to be fixed with surgery and dental work.It's also rare, 1 percent of the population, but even one percent of the population is still a significant amount of people.
Honestly everyone looked the same in paintings back then. You never knew what they actually looked like. Even their deformities were down played to make them look better…
This is actually a giant myth. Emperor Maximilian I, grandfather of Charles V who was the first Habsburg to exhibit the ‘incapable of closing his jaw’ deformity, shaved his beard and made sure his jaw was shown in portraits because it was seen as a noble feature back then. Just like high foreheads.
this is so funny imagine if someone went like "hello, sir. i researched 4 generations of your family, located where they come from and concluded youre not related to this fucked up family despite your uncanny appearance. goodbye"
He went to my high school and undergrad school. Too big a school to know him and we were grades apart, but he seemed nice to everyone and also kind to the younger students (hazing was awful there, and the teachers actively encouraged it).
You might want to factor in lexical drift. In the 1500s my family's name was Marriott like the hotel chain and now it is Merritt. At some point it was Marryott too. Not everyone could read or write so well in earlier eras. So, it is just as likely that surnames and names could change. A person might know how to say their name, but when the records were being taken they would just let the record keeper spell it however because whatever. There was a guy in my history I was looking at that just kept spelling his name different ways. And I'm not sure if he was doing it on purpose or not. He might have been trying to be sneaky. Also, one thing I pay attention to during family reunions is how people say are last name. It is not always the same. If I were to break it down with IPA it would be all over the place. While Haberberger and Hapsburg might be derived from actual words that mean something, they're function as a surname might negate this. Also, of course the regular telephone game of communication is always going to be going on through time. The further you go back in time, the less consistent things are in this regard.
My mother and her own brother pronounced their last name differently. If people still couldn’t spell in the 60’s, there would be two generations now with different last names recorded on official records.
This! After people learned how to read and spell, especially document their names there’s not much gray area to spellings now. English at some point in the past was more abstract.
yep! just found out that in the somewhere in the 1800s my family got changed from dyre to dyer, which unlocked a whole new set of relatives we didn't know about
Keith briefly spoke about it in a video, but I can't remember whether he said he was or wasn't related, and I can't remember which video that was, but I'm guessing it was the one with DNA tests. 🤔
One day a few years ago I was scrolling through RU-vid, saw a RU-vid video about the Habsburgs and went "whoa so that's where Keith comes from. Neat" and then went about my business lmao
ur channel is growing so fast! this vid is so random (bc its the tryguys) but also so on the nose for your content, love it. have not seen videos dissecting a modern person and comparing them like this
berg and burg have the same etymological origin. Before anyone questions me on this by saying it is just a theory of mine, or there is very little evidence, keep in mind that the entirety of Proto-Indo-European study is speculative. *behergh- means high, with derivatives meaning hill, or hill-fort. So behergh becomes the hill, then the small fort on the hill, then the castle of the elite on the hill, then the castle becomes the center of the town around it, then it is applied to any town. As far as to "where and when" in the history of the geman language the two words became fully separated, in meaning, spelling, or pronunciation is something I dont know, and of course we have to then cross reference this with the "where and when" of the history of Germans appiling surnames to common folk. I would be almost certain that all the varients spellings and pronunciations in the first part of the video were applied to people thought to derive their origins from the same region in Switzerland, even if it was long after the fact.
