Malta Potatoes 

we all have potato blood in our veins

This guy makes me proud to be Maltese. I have a lot more education than him and can speak better English but still i'm not even half the man he is. He is not only representing himself as a proud Maltese farmer but he is also representing his country by delivering the best quality of potatoes and looks like he is doing a fantastic job.

I never thought i would watch a documentary about potatoes

"You can taste the sea, the sun, and the church" - pure poetry. Mel & Peri love you.

"When we are going to harvest in your mind and in your hearts you feel that you are going to export the potato and never see it again.That hurt. "

I wish I cared about anything this much

This young man is a very successful exporter in Malta. His childhood dreams of doing what he does today, brought him to a great dedication to his job. In fact, he is a very well known exporter by foreign importers. Starting this kind of business by yourself isn't easy guys.. and that's what he did. :)

This is literally my favorite video on all of youtube. I try to watch it at least once a month to remind myself of the potato. Please, never remove it or my life will be over.

the passion he has for his profession is truly astonishing and it makes me very happy to know people like him exist

The best video in the world

On all levels except physical, I am a potato

I hope nobody told him how chips are made ...

It is not fair for the cruel comments. It reflects what you are and not what he truly is. What real people see in this video is a young man who is dedicated to his work and that does his very own best. Moreover, what is most important is that he is happy and satisfied with his work and is not afraid to show it. The only problem was the language barrier, but we as Maltese people could easily see that this young man had simply tried to translate each maltese word into English... so even if it is true... he has some language barriers... all of us could truly see what he was trying to convey and there was no reason to try and make fun of someone for simply showing love in his work!! Go man! Happy that you are happy! Remember, it is true that you can't speak English very well, but it is also true... that all those that claim to do... don't know how to take care of the potatoes like you do!;)

I like how everyone's making fun of the guy, but the fact is that he's simply vey passionate about his work, which is something 99% of us will never achieve. I mean when most of us wake up in stress on Mondays morning to go to work we hate, this guy is actually looking forward for his harvest... Say what you want, I'm really jealous of this guy.

JE SUIS PATATE

I love this video. The farmer shown is an honest young man who clearly loves what he does. Good on him!

Potato is love Potato is life !

I'm really proud to be Maltese. I 'm also trying to grow potatoes and this person is a good model to follow. WELL DONE.

What a fantastic video. You may laugh at the farmers simple and humble way of expressing himself in a language he probably doesn't feel comfortable with, but he really is passionate about what he does. I wish him and his family the best. This video reminded me of how much I love my country. Without farmers you would have very little to eat, and anything you did eat would cost the earth. We are lucky to have people like him working so passionately every day.

I admire this farmer for expressing himself in a language that's not his first. He's passionate about his work, he treats his soil and the product it gives him with great respect, almost reverence. I wish we had more of him.

If this is an advertisement, i would rate 5 over 5 stars because it was very funny and potatoes are delicious!

Oh yes, the Maltese farmers are the nicest most amazing, friendly people you will meet! In Gozo especially, they will just stop and ask if you need any help if you look even remotely lost!!

One of the few farmers with passion left on the Maltese islands , GOOD JOB MATE !

Exactly ! The bloke did his best to express himself in a language he barely studied and he actually succeeded . Well done dude ! :)

Beautiful in its simplicity. I love this it shows us that we are missing something in our busy lives and that is that beauty is found in the world around us, in Nature and what it gives us.

"My life is potato. I dream of potatoes. I have potato blood in my veins." I never seen anyone who is this passionate about potatoes. Honestly, I'm not sure how I should react to this video or how I should feel about Mr. Potato Lover over here.

I love this video cause it is true to the heart, he seems like a really good guy and is a professional in his field, no need for a Master's or PhD.

MA VIE EST UNE PATATE

My life is potatoes

moi aussi j'aime les patates, je m'en met souvent dans l'urètre

Dude's passionate about what he does, and most likely does it really, really well. I'd love to have that kind of passion in my career.

I hope in the future I am this passionate about something like this man, he seems so humble and happy with life doing what he does, potatoes. Brings tears to my eyes honestly for someone being so passionate and loving something so much.

1:17 Le désanusseur de Malte vous présente...

i love how happy he is. This is awesome haha :D

As a potato (danish) speaking human i respect this man. Infact, ive been to malta, and yes, the potatoes are very good

"...you can taste the sea, the CHURCH, the sun..." a great witness of humbleness, meekness and greatness of soul, humanity and ROOTS!!! Recognise in this the immensity of life’s philosophy, if one can grasp this, for if one does not, Michael surely does, for lives it, he says it and he shows it! God bless you Mike and all your family tac-Canki and tan-Nemusa our dearest friends and God’s household brethren! God watches over you all always! AMEN! Kunu Imbierka - KI+++

Pousse vert si la video what the cut #32 t'as forcé a voir ça -_-

Patatamalte !

This is astonishing how passionate they are about their potatoes. Seriously

1:33 a god damn poet... "you can taste the sea, the church and the sun in the potato"

Ces patates importées d'Italie et qui font face à l'Afrique du Sud!!!!

"my life is potato" :'D

How beautiful it is to see someone so humble and hardworking, passionate and truly proud of his work.

This documentary makes me want to visit Malta and eat these delicious potatoes!!! Keep up the great work!! xoxo

this guy i makes me proud to be maltese

ma vie est une patate...mon amour est la purée

I buy Maltese potatoes from abroad, and they are really the best! Love the Maltese culture and dedication!

If everyone was as passionate and dedicated about his work as this guy is we would live in a better world. Proset sieħbi!

When the subtitles can't even know what a person is saying.

My name Artour Babaev. I grow up in small farm to have make potatos. Father say Artour, potato harvest is bad. Need you to have play professional Doto in Amerikanski for make money for head-scarf for babushka." I bring honor to komrade and babushka. Sorry for is not have English. Plz no cykapasta.

I never thought potatoes could be so important, inspiring and interesting. The Maltese potato is the best in the world, and their growers are the best in the world !

we should be grateful to people like him who are providing us with food... his knowledge of the land, chemicals and his hard work - we get what for us is a staple food. The message would have come across better had it been done in Maltese with English subtitles.

Quand je pense à vous, je suis patateuuh ! Quand je pense à moi, Je suis patateuuh. Quand je pense à toi.. je suis une tomate O_O

Ceux qui aime les balançoires mettez un pouce bleu sur ma BALANCOIRE merci.

This is actually a rather humbling video. A lot of work goes into the food we eat every day, and we take it for granted that we can just buy it on a shelf, and demand it be cheaper and cheaper.

this guy is a legend, malta would be a better place if people would farm with passion like him

Cette vidéo ... C'est la vie :')

Et c'est ainsi que Antoine Daniel planta son drapeau

Beautifully made video, and we see Maltese life which we don't often see. Thank you from Australia.

I hope this video will never be forgotten

That guy probably speaks better English then whoever did the subtitles.

WHY SO MANY FRENCH 😂😂❤

This guy changed my perspective on potatoes and i am grateful for it

I am proud to be maltese. This is the most popular potato video on youtube.

1:16 Le désanuseur de Malte vous présente ses meilleurs patates 2:43 Vous sentez l'émotion qui monte en vous 4:41 Ce sont mes Pommes de Terre Lol !

this is lovely

This takes "Insiru Patata" to a whole new level!

Apart from our unique language, culture, art, history, architecture, blue sea and pleasant climate our potatoes are among the rest. Well done to the producers of the movie. Speaking English with potatoes in the veins is unique as well.................. Again well done excellent production. It shows a bit of everything. However it shows loads of openness and genuine hospitality. After all we Maltese are known to be a genuine and utterly hospitable......................

1:17 If you have potato in your blood

What do you think he eats...?

I like the way this young potato grower presented this feature. Good job and well done.

you know you're never gonna see the potato again and that hurts.

Quand je pense à toi, je suis patate.

Antoine Daniel m'a inspiré une autre chanson tout aussi magnifique : *moaaaa j'aime les pataaatatamaaaaaltes, quand les patates paaaartent, ça fait très maaaaaaaaaaal, ma vie est une pataaaaaate et la purée mon amouuuuuur* BREF, c'est nul à chier, surtout que c'est un *commentaire* youtube... MERDE, LES PATATES VONT PARTIIIIR !! _(moi)_ *NOOOOOOOOON !!!* _(elles)_ *NAAAAAAAANN* _(moi)_ *HEEEEEUUUUUUUH !!!* _(elles)_ *AAAAAAAAAAN !!* _(moi)_ *EHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH !!* PUTAIN, CE COMMENTAIRE N'A PLUS AUCUN SENS !!

It is true that its difficult for him to express himself in English but at least the process that he tried to explain is understandable. Respect to this guy and others who do this tough work. Thanks to them we can enjoy a wide variety of fruits and vegetables of high quality on the market at cheap prices.

This guy has better grammar in English than some Americans I know, so he's got that

What the cut plante son drapeau!!

What's the name of the song?

I suggest that the owner of this video should remove all the negative comments posted here. I also would like to commend this young man for his passion and would like to shake his hand. It is shamefull how certain people , big head people do not appreceate the hard work of farmers who strive to keep food in our plates.

Man I lose it every time a wise guy spells potato with an e.

potato....

Je suis une tomate.

That was positively serene.

True, maybe his english isn't all that great and he's making aliteral translation from maltese to english. But at least this guy is authentic. He's doing something he loves. He's not being fake and someone he isn't, just to please others around him. I honestly respect him for that.

3:58 - Allahu Akbar!

I find his English to be endearing and I admire his family’s passion.

What a video! Everything is so raw and heartfelt, and it's difficult not to be infected by the speaker's passion! Despite what many are saying about this young man's English, he speaks it very well, including generally grammatically correct sentences and the use of technical vocabulary. However, the subtitles are a disgrace and don't do the speaker any justice.

This guy is a living legend. Id get his autograph

Me:im going to sleep early today. Also me at 3 am:

This guy makes me proud to be Maltese. I have a lot more education than him and can speak better English but still i'm not even half the man he is. He is not only representing himself as a proud Maltese farmer but he is also representing his country by delivering the best quality of potatoes and looks like he is doing a fantastic job. 2 thumbs up

agreed, well done to this promotional video, his job that he takes pride. well done!

"I have potato blood in my veins"

considering the guy probably worked in agriculture his whole life and infact lives in such a traditional style, I not only congratulate him on his effort to speak in English but thank him for rightfully preserving this authentic exhibit of Maltese culture....or rather what it used to be. I'd be more concerned with the spelling of the words on screen...supposedly written by people with degrees and far more 'elaborate' and 'superior' studies(as some would say)than the lad who cultivates the field

Beautiful video, thank you for sharing. Now I really want to visit Malta!

Their dedication is awesome. ❤

awesome video... now I really want to try a maltese potato

Ah yes, the elusive maltese potatoes, roaming wild in the potato lands of malta

c'est tellement émouvant... aime si tu pleure à chaque fois

“The family thinks always from morning to evening about the potatoes... wE CAn fEeL AnD TOuCh pOtAto ONe bY oNE”

This guy is loving life, wish I had his passion
