Brazil's REAL-ly Cool Banknotes. A look at the new 200 Brazilian Real banknote, as well as the rest of the series, the animals on them and their security features. Instagram: @halfasleepchris Merch: halfasleepchri...
In the “old family” of Real, we had the 1 Real note, featuring a hummingbird. But these notes are replaced for the 1 Real coins in 2005. Now they’re a super rare collector’s item.
Hi Chris, i'm from Brazil and the animals on the notes were chosen because they suffer from extinction risk. That's why Central Bank doesn't put the Caramel dog on it, unfortunately! hahaha

Bandido tem no mundo todo, em todos os países. Na América do Sul, se você for pra Argentina por exemplo, é impressionante a quantidade de dinheiro falso que circula lá. A mesma chance de ir no centro da cidade e ganhar un panfleto kkk
Interesting fact: the Jaguar in the 50 reais note is not just a representative picture, but it actually exists, her name is Gabi and she lives in Rio de Janeiro's Zoo.
O brasileiro que comentou em inglês não tá querendo se passar por gringo, mas sim ser compreendido pelo autor deste vídeo. Comentar em inglês também evita de que a seção de comentários seja tomada por brasileiros. Nós assistimos estes vídeos no intuito de saber o que os gringos acham do Brasil, mas isso é impossível de saber tendo só brasileiro na seção de comentários.
I am a simple Brazilian, I see something about my country and I like it. Actually I love the fact that the Brazilian Real is represented by native animals, better than putting politicians.
@@michellecavalcante5883 pois é. A nota de 1,00 real tava novinha. A minha ex mulher tinha mania de abrir minha carteira e pegar dinheiro sem me avisar. Uma vez tive que descer do ônibus a dez metros de onde eu estava. porque minha ex esposa. pegou o dinheiro da minha carteira e não avisou. E eu fui a pé pra rua.kkkk😂😂😂
I Find it funny how brazilians are such a big part of the internet, and we hide in our own youtube ecosystem, but then some english channel puts "Brazil" In the title... Welp here we are, thanks for calling us, your faith will now be to come to Brasil :gun:
@@scartz890 resumindo o texto: eh foda q o brasil ta na maior parte da net, mas eles se escondem no ecosistema deles, mas quando bota "Brazil" no titulo, vish
@@Flaviopneuzinho "Os políticos brasileiros queriam resolver o problema de guardar maiores quantia de dinheiro em lugares com espaço limitado, tipo... UMA CUECA!" Foi mais ou menos isso que ele disse kkkk
fun fact: , when Real was lauched in 1994, face values of the notes reflect the rarity of the species: 1 real (humming bird, very common elsewhere), 5 reais (heron), 10 reais (macaw), 50 reais (Pantanal's Jaguar), 100 reais (manatee and garoupa, at risk of extinction). Later they launched 2 reais (seaturtle) and 20 reais (lion-tamarin) and break the pattern.
@@corterapidoetramontina2904 Não tem nada a ver com vira lata, pelo contrário, Brasileiros sempre quer saber o que estão falando sobre eles, não vejo nenhum Brasileiro pedindo atenção de gringo na internet, são eles que querem a nossa atenção.
@@MarcosSabinoCreator eu nao disse "pedindo" no sentido literal. Mas quando um gringo faz um video sobre o Brasil, ele JÁ SABE que vai atrair muito br...isso já virou senso comum la na gringa. A questão é que esse tipo de comportamento dos BRs estampa claramente o desejo de ser visto, de querer ser falado, de ter curiosidade sobre oq os outros falam de ti. Você não vê pessoas de outras nacionalidades com esse comportamento online. Imagine se eu crio um canal amanhã pra falar sobre algum aspecto da cultura do Cazaquistão, ou da Polônia, ou da Indonésia por exemplo...não vai dar em nada. Porque eles não ligariam para oq um estrangeiro pensa ou fala sobre eles. Os brasileiros ligam, e muito. Essa é a diferença. Por isso digo que são vira-latas clamando por atenção...
@@amandasbatalha4938 two impeachments happened in a span smaller than 40 years and a third one is likely on the way That and the current president is literally an anti-vax
Behind the fish (a garoupa) on the 100 note, there is also a coral, named Muricea flamma. Endemic to Brazil when the note was released, later found also in Bahamas. The coral is also pictured at the holographic band. In 2018, dozens of people wore costumes inspired on this species in one of the sectors of a carnival parade in honor of the National Museum.
I don’t think it’s actually because of it, but I remember asking Chris to make a episode about the reais notes because of the 200 real note, i didn’t really thought he would do it, but the madlad did it anyways.
As a brazilian, I really disliked when people didn't want the maned wolf. It's an endangered species. I saw someone say "why would I want a maned wolf? I never see one" yeah that's exactly why we should put it there. They are ellusive animals and brazilian people are not very aware of their situation. Everyone loves caramel dog, but come on.
@@joaoguilherme-ug9tu claro que não vai, mas ajuda as pessoas a lembrarem do bicho. pode ser simbólico, mas tem impacto, sim. ficar querendo o vira-lata amarelo e ignorando o lobo é desmerecer a fauna nativa que já é desmerecida demais.
A few curiosities: 1 - up until 2005, we had the 1 real note, it was green and featured a hummingbird, nowadays we only have the 1 real coin to represent this value, which is the biggest coin, and also the most beautiful bc it has a golden outer ring 2 - many Brazilians complain about the fact that both the 2 reais note and the 100 reais note are blue, it's pretty common for people to mistake the two in day to day life, which may cause people to lose a 100 reais note, some people even advocate for changing the 2 reais note color to green now that the 1 real note is out of circulation 3 - in 2000, to celebrate the 500 years of the country, we had a special print of the 10 reais note, it was made out of plastic and featured a completely different design, older looking, with a more classic font, the face of Pedro Alvares Cabral (the first sailor to find Brazil) instead of the face of the Republic, and a big red dot on one of the sides, I was born in 1999 and saw this note everywhere until my late childhood, even though they were only a special print 4 - Despite Brazil being a laic State (in theory), all notes are printed with the phrase "Deus seja louvado" (God be praised) on them, this caused a nation wide hoax in 2013, when a satirical news website posted that someone changed "Deus" for "Goku" on an entire printing of 100 reais notes, and lots of people didn't realize it was a joke and believed it 5 - the Real has only been around since 1994, we had multiple other currencies prior to it
When they announced that the maned wolf would be the chosen animal, counterfeiters created a 200 note of their own design and it was in circulation before the real deal was released. The thing is: the fake note was MUCH prettier than the actual one. There were a lot of memes on the internet about how ugly the real design was, given how beautiful the wolf is and how good the counterfeit's design was. It's an unnecessary and ugly note.
here in brazil it was said that the note was created to facilitate the financial assistance the government gave for people with money issues on the pandemic. but since then, i never heard anything about it, no complains, nor compliments, the thing that we meme about, is that the actual wolf is sUUper beautiful, and the one on the note is TERRYFINGLY UGLY
@@irmaosmatos4026 the fish itself is not a beautiful thing, at least it's well represented. The wolf on the other hand I cant event tell whether the furr was bad drawed or the animal was caught on fire
As a brazilian myself I can confirm that the vira-lata caramelo, or caramel mongol as you said is universally loved here, and we made thousands of petitions and on-line protests about it not being in the 200 reais bill.
The problem with the 200 note is that it's hard to exchange for smaller notes. When I got it in my hands, people are always annoyed at how big it is, and we always have a conversation along the lines of "why did they release such a big value note, if exchanging a 50 is already hard enough"
@@josiasroig8622 exactly! it's such a nightmare. I`ve seen a guy buy a single 2 liters bottle of Conquista guarana with a 200, at a liquor store, while I was waiting in the line behind him. there's nothing the cashier can do or say but the look on their faces says it all, it's a massive pain in the ass
Existe uma lei no Brasil que é "se qualquer outro país escrever "Brazil" no título do vídeo, pode ser um meme a uma aula de economia, o Brasileiro clica e comenta qualquer coisa" Está na seção judiciária página 420 linha 69 do lado da lei SAKURA MELHOR QUE SABER
@@WafflesOinc em defesa dele, tinham muitos comerciais quando eu era criança, principalmente quando lançaram a de 2 e de 20 pra explicar tudo sobre a nota, depois disso vi em alguns cartazes de banco e depois passei anos sem ver nada educativo sobre as notas, é a cara do Brasil explicar pouco sobre como o pais funciona pra população
@@Imperio_Otomano_the_realest Em vídeo sobre a Polônia tem polonês pra cacete, a mesma coisa com o Brasil, no fim isso é normal e o brasileiro se acha especial por isso... A diferença de nosso país prós outros é que o Brasil é super populoso.
@@snxw69420 brazil had a green R$1,00 note, but it was replaced for the R$1,00 coin, which is silver/grey on the middle area with a yellow/golden ring on the outer area. Also, at same time, they removed the R$0,01 cent coin, which everyone just used as a R$1,00 coin anyway, now brazils lowest value coin is the R$0,05 cent coin.
well... Worthless mortal, do you want to go to Brazil? Then bow to us, treat us like divine creatures, and give us 1 dollar(the economy here is terrible)
@@VictorCampos87 Yes, but unfortunately, Rio de Janeiro (the city where the episode takes place) does not know how to differentiate art, comedy and criticism of slander and offense, they threatened to sue Fox and The Simpsons and even censored the episode.
@@user-zl2zo9vm6o Shut it Brazilians had to adapt to understand most of the online/gaming media for years, so there is a considerable amount of us that do know a thing or another about speaking english
@@delksbwg3777 @Delks BWG the truth is that some Brazilians do not like to understand the English of foreigners when these same people don't try on a minimal scale to understand our Portuguese
There used to be a one real note, with a hummingbird on its back. It was green, but it doesn't exist anymore (wich is a pity, in my opinion, because it was one of the most beautiful notes)
Every single one of your videos has a weird cute charm to it. Do i care about money in other countries? no, not even in the slightest. Do i watch your videos because they are YOUR videos and have that adorable charm? yes, every single one. Great vid!
Os gringos têm dificuldade de entender que os memes do Brasil não têm limites. Iremos memear até a morte e todos estiverem convencidos de que estamos sério.
I’m Brazilian and just knew some of the the security mechanisms in the bill. Great work portraying them all. I don’t know if it’s universal with other countries bills but there’s a marker pen that paints different colors on a real bill and a fake bill. Most cashiers use it when receiving the large bills (50 or higher).
The reverse of the $2 note is actually quite nice and interesting :-) I wish that all of our notes depicted either an events or an idea of United States. Like Liberty, equality, the pursuit of happiness, etc.
It's more easy to full a suitcase with ilegal cash with small notes than big notes. For exemple the same suitcase can have 3x more money with 200 real notes than 100 real notes. Our are politics are more happy than never.
@@pedrofelck Demencia, isso cabe ao presidente do Banco Central, não ao Bolsoanro. Pela cara na foto, é mais um "estudante" que vai sair analfabeto funcional.
@@LUCASDOMINIO sim colega, o banco central não tem a presidência escolhida pelo PR e ele não tem influência nenhuma sobre coisas assim, pode confiar. Sobre o ad hominem: vou me formar em medicina, e tu, o que faz da vida com esse QI altíssimo de apoiador do asno?
