What Do British Think of America? 

It is funny the British calling Americans obese , isnt that calling the kettle black.

How about you actually ask some British people.

More than half the people you interviewed were not british my friend

You’re asking a bunch of non British people though?

No, he didn't say "a beast". He said "obese" (= very fat).

Didn’t see many British ............

The last time I was in London it was packed with Muslim gangs. My lady friend (Scottish) was genuinely (and justifiably) afraid. I’d rather be in the relative safety of Miami than anywhere around King’s Cross.

Who's gonna tell that black French guy that Obama hasn't been president for damn near 10 years?! 😅😅

That guy you First interviewed isn’t English mate. He’s Asian

The chap calling us fat and greasy looks like he’s in good shape

I love the fact that I’m seeing more and more of these videos on RU-vid. Asking countries what they think of other countries is great we all learn a lot at least I do.

As a Californian I really enjoyed this. Of course the U.S. is huge and powerful, so true. It's as big as from Ireland to Iraq. Sure, people abroad have stereotypes of us, that's understandable. But every state is like it's own country, we all have a common language or two, considering many of us speak Spanish now too. There is culture here, and different customs in different regions. If you want to know our regional food and customs you have to stay for while with a family and eat dinner many times ;) all the commercial restaurants are not actually American food, that's just a corporate overlay of blandness. I grew up on a small ranch and farm, riding horses, throwing hay, hunting and fishing in the Sierra Nevada mountains, but I also lived near a big city and had all that experience and education as well. We absolutely have a culture, or many cultures. It's just hard to get past all the pretend generic American culture of movies. And we're not all obese nor rude lol When I go to European countries everyone thinks I'm French. Haha Je ne se qua. Parle Fransais un pur. But I've found French people and Danish people and Swiss people to be very friendly. Zer gut, tre magnifique. One thing to consider, all the Americans you like overseas are exactly the same Americans who have money in the States. Lol And are perhaps the ones you don't like from afar. Isn't that weird? I think so, so nuanced that relationship. Anyway, don't worry about another Trump, that will never happen again. We will learn, have learned, and are rapidly compensating so it will never happen again. Besides, Trump was trying to be President for many election cycles, maybe it was inevitable. But he is a one-off, there is nobody else in the U.S. positioned like him and with his uniquely horrible attitude, thank god. Lol Slainte! Salude! Slante! Prost! Skoll! Nostrovia! Cheers

Everyone wants EVERYTHING from USA!! but you don't like us? 😊😊

Seems a lot of Americans are commenting on here and they don't seem happy about the video. I'm an American and I totally get what they're saying. This is just a sample portion of many different cultures. Majority of the world doesn't like Americans. It's just a fact. Some are justified and some maybe not.

Disclosure: I'm American. My son-in-law is English. Many of the people interviewed could very well be British citizens without being ethnically English: the result of empire. America has a similar variety, because we are a nation of immigrants (voluntary & kidnapped both), except for the Amerindians. The reason the US is a dominant force in the world goes back the the Bretton Woods agreement at the end of WWII. The Americans were the only world-class economy left standing. My grandparents said to yours, "We will assume security requirements for you, and guarantee free trade with our navy. We will give you free access to our markets. We will rebuild your countries and feed you until you get back on your feet. You promise to be our friends against the USSR." Everyone thought that was a good deal. But the object of this agreement, to defeat the USSR, has been achieved. Yet we stumble on in this arrangement like sleepwalkers, going on 70 years now. The US is generally happier to go home, as after WWI. We don't like land wars in general, even though we engage in them. We are getting ready to go home again. It's a big home, with lots of space for us. You may not miss us. We'll see. Either way, America and its close neighbors will be fine.

Great video man! As an American I love to see content like this, it's really engaging to find out what other's think about the things you never really pay attention to. Maybe you could ask people about the things they think we take most for granted, just a thought! Keep up the good work dude!

A lot of those werent British people

😆 A lot of people talking trash about the USA were wearing denim clothing... This material came from the Sierra Nevada Mountains as a durable fabric (reinforced with rivets) for the miners. So, I guess we're not all bad? 😜

I THINK IT IS TERRIBLE HOW MUCH ISLAM IS IN THE UK AND EU

Been to America numerous times and best place ive ever visited. Customer service is world class, value for money and the people are very nice in general. Would like to go back one day and highly recommend to people who havent been to visit. Great place.

As an American, I didn’t realize how fat we were until I traveled to other countries. Several countries I’ve been to barely have any obese people

Britain is quite far itself. UK is 27% obese. That is more than 1 in 4 British that are obese. The US is ranked 13th. So yeah, we have a lot of fatties, but we aren’t the only ones. Russia is 30% obese. New Zealand is 34%. In the US 54% of black women are obese. 50% of Hispanic women are obese. 38% of white women. Hispanic men are fatties. White and Black men are about the same.

Im British and have zero issues with Americans except when they are tourists in germany on public transport, my best friend is german so i go there alot and on a number of occasions i have spoken in german as im fluent in it and pretended to not be able to speak english because idk what happens to yall there but damn yall doing too much.

When the guy said "obese" and the subtitles said "a beast". LUV IT! LOL

At the very start when he asks the man sitting down what the first word he thinks of when he thinks of America is, he says obese, but in the subtitles it says a beast!😂😂

At least Americans know how to serve up a proper breakfast!

England is best and I am staying here.

Hey friends im mexican and wanna visit both countries. i love usa and united kingdom ❤

What mass media stereotype comes to mind when the British think of America. That should be the title.

Jealousy is a sickness.

most of the stereotypes that these people are using to define America almost identify exclusively with New York City and Texas... lol

@2:00. Of course or people were not Friendly in Ohio and Newyork. People are friendlier down south and out west.

good energy! keep going! viewer from Denmark

I Took World History and a course of English Literature in High School over 56 years ago. So I was familiar with Churchill, Beowulf,Geoffrey Chaucer Shakespeare, Christopher Marlowe George Barnard Shaw, James Joyce, General Montgomery, Thomas Moore, King John and the Magna Carter, Jane Austin, the Bronte sisters , George Eliot and many others ie John Wesley., William Wiburforce, William Penn Shelley, Lord Byron, Keats, Mary Shelley ,George Orwell, C.S. Lewis, John Bunyan, Charles Dickens. Famous scientists, Francis Bacon,Isaac Newton,Findley, Faraday, Priestly are just some old school scientists from English history. Do people in Great Britain take high school courses that include USA History and and American literature. Someone remembering Eisenhower, Gen.Marshall or the Marshall plan and the dropping of food to Germany would be nice. John Paul Jones came from Scotland. Our Navy greatly appreciates this gift of a man. Hemingway, Scott Fitzgerald, Edgar Allen Poe, EE Cummings, Walt Whitman, Edith Wharton are some USA contributions to literature. Eli Whitney inventor, Edison Inventor, Alexander Graham Bell inventor, Benjamin Franklin, inventor, author, statesman but preferred the French to the English. Some other famous people besides the least that was spoken of in this video. How about George Washington Carver and Fredrick Douglas writers, statesmen and educators. So many more of the last 50 years that were working during my life time after my high school ended. I will add a immigrant to USA Irving Berlin who wrote Over There" God Bless America he aptly described my country from sea to shining sea. There are purple mountains, there are lands that are flat and are golden with harvest, the are mountains that are green and birds sing and streams murmur and there are oceans that are white with foam, there are humming birds, and theaters, too many lights and prairies, lakes and fields of wheat, corn,pumpkins growing and great trees and tumbling weeds. Hot winds and big canyons, hot waters that spew a hundred feet high. Board walks and canyons made out of sky scrapers and ice and cold winds. When you come do not hang around the cities and do not go to tourist traps. Go to little towns, to the Midwest, to the west . Walk the many paths. Stop at the fields and waterfalls. Look for the old homespun ways. Learn of the pioneers and the strong women who endured loneliness and nursed and brought up their families.

'big up george floyd' wow says alot about him and what he supports

Your voice only comes from left side. It will be perfect if u can fix the stereo. Thanks for the effort! And yes, US is a country of immigrants and mixed cultures.

what's with the audio?

He still things Obama is president 😭

Envy and jealousy are very powerful emotions .....

I was shocked at how many of the people interviewed had actually visited the US. My guess is that the vast majority of Americans have never been outside the US.

lol im trying not to be offended as an american

Tysm 😍😍

We are so misunderstood. I welcome anyone to come and enjoy the diversity of the USA. Foreigners think we are just New York, California, Florida, Wyoming, Texas. Fuck all that, get in the guts, go to Alabama, Tennessee, Kentucky, West Virginia they will treat you well

good old moor market

So you watch TV and you go to the tourist places... great. No mention of how huge the gap is between rich and poor here. No mention of people working two jobs living paycheck to paycheck. Just a bunch of stereotypes about the U.S. being rich and loud. Try going where the tourists don't go, you may have a totally different experience.

I’m English I’ve been to Quebec Canada and I have to say everyone spoke French, ate French food, French architecture it was kinda scary

at 1:37 he must of got his ahh whooped thats why he hates it

Come to WV. You’ll love it here😈

America is extra! :)

Didn’t we save yall in world war 2 🥱 guess they forgot that one ☝🏼

LOL ppl are obsessed with American culture but they just don't wanna admit it LOL

Thanks...

Big up bro

We argue then think we can buy are selfs out of it

wow

What’s up with the audio

yea obese is a beast :D

We LOVE Donald Trump!! He’s exactly what our country needed!! God willing he will be back in 2024!!!! 🇺🇸

Would love to see some of it , l think most of the people are good folks ,but drugs and guns are the down fall .

TRUMP2024

That music is annoying

Most of them are not British.

Jealousy

Why not speak to actual British people 😂

I've been in just about every American state. Traveled lots in America. Now, I'm ready to go abroad. To the UK first. So, I"m very interested in what they think. Yes, America is huge. The majority of Americans do not like Donald Trump. He did not win the popular vote. I don't see cultures being that different from one state to the other. Rural America is different from urban America. Rural America is usually Republican and conservative, urban America is usually Democrat and liberal. I think we are all very upset about the great divide that has happened in our country over Republicans vs Democrats. Most Americans are in the center, however and we can't seem to get back to that. Biden is at least in the center. I wish the Senate and House would start working together. I hurts that we are so divided. Yes, obesity is an epidemic here. A real problem. Portions are very large in restaurants. What I and many people do is eat half of their meal and take the rest home for another day. You really get two meals in one. But those who think they can eat it all or do eat it all are probably at risk for obesity. We are always assessing ourselves and criticizing ourselves and protesting about things. So...I think we are much harsher on ourselves than any other country would be. I agree with many of the criticisms of America in this video.

SHEFFIELD REPRESENT!!!!

I been in England. I don't like England I was from USA . Y'all have everything so small . My ideal is just stay in my country . Y'all beautiful people but uk is not for me . I like Ireland more

I’m from America New Jersey you are right bro everybody is right in this video. We are so corrupt and fat and greasy.

I visited Britain 1 year ago and I thinkk the people looked down thier noses at Americans a lot, but I was not impressed at all by my visit with the people and the country.

lil baby😂😂😂

When I think of America? I think about Peru or brasil.

Everyone knows that Americans are big like their country. They can't lay off the fries.

Yankee

America? The continent? Where in America? United States? United States is not America, it is in America. Reminder... America is not a country is a continent with many countries in it. But US not just stole the land, but also the name America. America starts in Canada and ends in Patagonia Argentina... When are people going to get it? If you say US people? Use their nations name United Statesians.

First think gun culture🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫🔫

wow
