Imagine, you were dating someone for around 3 years, you have a pretty intimate relationship and love eachother very much. You decide to take this test after saving up a bit. You take it annnnnnnd: She's your cousin.
Bilbo_Gamers FDR married his cousin and the royal families of Europe are all cousins. that's why royals have a plethora of " nationalities " in their family tree and they're all interalated.
I got my results a little over a week ago from ancestry DNA I literary lost my breathe I was shocked my life and my view of myself changed at that moment In a week I've been linked up with close relatives that I didn't know existed from countries that I had only ever read about in books..... I advise everyone who can to take the ancestry DNA test.... its life changing
+Lexes O'Hara yes it really is amazing and worth it I promise it's like finding an adventure that was waiting right there inside of you the whole time.... I've already contacted some cousins I've found on ancestry and they are close DNA matches , people I've never met or heard of that live 3 hours from me
+Lexes O'Hara it's really amazing even after you take the test you can take your raw DNA files from ancestry then upload them to a site called Gedmatch Thant will give you an even more detailed result than ancestry will.... I took the test mainly looking for my fathers family
I just got my results back this morning. I was always told 100% Greek. I am only 68% Greece/Italy and most other comes from basically middle eastern and Jews. Blessed are the peacemakers.
many greeks and italians have jewish dna, mostly because of the Roman empire, but also in the period of the Macedonian Empire in the middle east, many jews mixed with greeks. and most of the jews have italian dna, big or small, because of the Roman Empire.
+Roman Fox and what do you think "I'm more important than you" means? he wasn't talking about being more important in doing something specific .. but he was referring to being important as an Icelandic person.. as a human..and I really pity him
+ProVaLstaR what makes Icelandic people so special ? I'm Maltese my mother can speak fluently old school Maltese . What makes her more special then anyone else lol it's just the way the guy said it was so arrogant 😂
+xCarxMellax I don't really know 😂.. I personally think that if anyone brag about something they didn't choose makes them look stupid and illogical.. I am an Arab and in my country, there are so many retarded people that think exactly the way that icelandic person do.. And I really hate that.. we are all bone and flesh.. just please stop degrading others.. we are all humans after all!!
This is why I keep saying to folks, it's important to know who you are. This is because it can help determine where you're going and where your people have been. One way or another we're connected to a common ancestry, yet part of a larger group of people. And you never know what's in your DNA, this is all the reason we should respect and care about one another.
People need to know that we are all not 100% what country you come from. Me for example i’m Dutch but i know i’m not 100% Dutch cause i knew this bc of this video but also watched a history of my county now i also understand the lyrics of our anthem song more.
I work at a homeless shelter, doing my undergraduate training. An assignment was given for hypothetical training for the staff. Even though this is only for an assignment, I have played this video for a couple of the staff and will continue to show the others, to show them how connected we all are.
I guess being American I never really thought of people being like "Im 100% French and no one can tell me other wise." All Americans come from such diverse and different backgrounds. Such as I am German, Polish, Irish, French, Welsh, Swedish, and Scottish.
Adam Bumber French are a whatever concoction of Celtic Germanic tribes thrown in maybe Roman and Mediterranean people who colonized the coast in ancient days. 100% French is a political or national construct rather than a sctrict genetic code.
That's why the whole "African American" thing doesn't work. Just because someone has a darkened epidermis does not mean they are from Africa. We are all mutts :-)
This video should be titled: *"Some of the worst people in the world take a dna test to find out their heritage and only soften their outlooks as soon as they find out they share backgrounds with all those people they hate"*
I doubt that. I don't think anyone hates people because of their DNA. I hate China, with a passion, and I know Im almost certainly part Chinese. Probably 1/16th actually. So what? Im sure plenty of Chinese people hate China even more then I do. The Chinese government are MONSTERS. But I understand how hard it is to stand up to your government in the modern day of weaponry.
It's an old comment I know... Yet it is harsh to say these people are the worst in the world. Yes they have cultural and racial biases which can all be understood if one is able to learn their story.
@@martineshamzin7535 you hate the government not the people. a lot of people just hate a race and not their country. a lot of my people hate Chinese people because their cultures clash.
I took one of these tests (Ancestry DNA) and I found out I was 6% East Asian and 33% Middle Eastern when both of my parents are from Africa. There's no such thing as a pure race and anyone who believes that is an idiot, period. We were all just humans before countries divided us and race disconnected us.
+ANIMAL MOTHER Of course we've always been fighting but what my point is, is that people weren't like how they were today, they didn't care as much about mixing and having mixed raced offspring because race and modern nation-states weren't a thing.
***** You do realize "Middle Eastern" is a mix of many different races right? They have Caucasoid, ancient Nubian, Phoenician, Babylonian, Ancient Greek etc
ANIMAL MOTHER Of course, however history shows that while people did fight other tribes/groups for dominance, they were just as willing to procreate with them as well. Which is why most ethnicities today have mixed origins.
I absolutely love this film and I have used this footage daily in the schools we visit when we are delivering our CSI Forensic Science Workshops for several years now, however, of late it seems more relevant than ever. From analysing hair and fibers, our sessions naturally take us to discuss DNA and Ethnicity and I use myself as an example, as I am of mixed race and have recently taken my own DNA test. However, this film explains it better than I ever could and the reaction of the students and teachers is always 100% positive and opens up a huge discussion about heritage and culture, a subject in the UK that is not often openly discussed because of the fear of offending an individual or group of people or the fear of being accused of being a racist. I really hope in my lifetime, that all schools and colleges get the opportunity to view this film, it is so very, very powerful and has been put together so sensitively by MOMONDO. I wish it was a compulsory watch in our schools within the national curriculum, particularly within Citizenship, PHSE, Lifeskills, or Geography as it really would teach students from an age when it really matters that globally there really are more similarities between us than differences!
He was taught that bad attitude from childhood. Now he knows better from his DNA, he can choose to be better; you can see his attitude improve just from this new information.
I am from Macedonia and the political situation in my country makes me buy this kit and find out everything about my origin. It is fascinating to see how connected to each other people are 😊
I dunno if it's because Americans are so mixed and that I personally don't know my family's history or origin but there's no country or ethnicity that I would be upset to have ancestry from.
D Bojangles lol no. I don't know many Australians and I don't know any Aboriginals though having Aboriginal heritage would be shocking since I'm white XD
I have no idea what I am my dads side 75 percent blonde blue/green eyes mom is 75 percent Kurd/Turk/Arab my dads family is blonde blue eyed Turks my family tree sticks after my grandpa’s grandpa martyred in world war 1 I have no idea what im
I took the test last month. I thought I was Swedish/Italian. Well, I got a LOT of added surprises! I have a country list 100+!!! I'm Arabic, Jewish, Pacific Islands, North African, Asian. My head is still spinning!
To everyone saying that this is staged: first of all, thank you for reading my comment! I hope you have a great day :) Secondly, think about this: what if the people show are the only ones that had notable reactions? There's a whole group behind them! The rest of them could have been unimpressed or just shrugged. It doesn't *have* to be staged! They can just pick and choose the reactions, and also pick and choose specific moments from said reactions. And who knows, maybe they even pulled in a few different groups, and this is just the one with the most notable reactions, and a unknown pair of cousins!
I sat on a school bus with a friend in middle school only to find decades later we were distantly related. I believe it was our 4th great grandparents we had in common. Her reaction? "Our ancestors put us on that bus together." That always makes me smile.
I am from Mexico and we are a huge melange of "races" so I knew I had Native American, Ibero, Italian,African and Chinese, my parents and grandparents were well informed (and not shy at all) about our ancestry, the only regions that were bit surprising were the 2% or 4% ones like Britain, or Middle Eastern and Polinesia, those were a bit of surprise but I'm sure my ancestors travel so, I can see that, :)
I agree with the lady in the video who said everyone should have their DNA analyzed. I think a lot of people would be stunned by their results. It really makes you think when you're staring at your results.
this is beautiful. before I took my dna test, I promised myself, all along, that it is not what we are, but who we are that matters the most. we are one people -portugal, scandinavia, great britain, europe east, ireland, italy/greece, middle east, africa north, and new world is what I am, not who I am
this is amazing, me, my mother and my father did this at different times. keep in mind im puerto rican so i know I am mixed blooded already.here is the shocker though, i am more italian/greek and british than spanish. Those were the two highest percentages in my dna. my father's was 25% british and my mother's was 31% spanish and then we all had native american and various african dna amongst our own results muxed in with others from europe.
I did this. I was certain I was Polish, Bohemian and German. I get my results back, 60 percent eastern europe as expected, but i was 15 percent italian or greek, and 10 percent british. Just shattered what I actually thought I was.
I don't know if those are actors nor if the whole commercial was staged, I don't care, I can't hold my tears each time I re-watch it, and at the same time I find myself smiling till the end. Agree with the lady who says the test should be compulsory, discrimination due to ethnia does not apply anymore. My test revealed procedence from a dozen regions I would never have imagined and I ended up discovering that a very dear friend of mine is also a relative, something that made us both very happy. Do not hesitate, take it !!!
Thanks very much for taking the time to share your kind feedback with us, Luis. We're glad to hear that your DNA journey has been a rewarding experience as well. We hope you have a great day, and we wish you all the best in your continued research!
Thanks for watching and for sharing a little of your story, Luis! We're happy to hear that you've also enjoyed exploring your own family history and can imagine that it must be so special to find a family connection to a close friend. All the best with any continuous family research!
My father was Polish.... My mother is Italian... My surname sounds Greek but has Hungarian roots.... I was born in England.... then you can realise why I don't hate anyone...
We traced our roots back to an odd lil European couple who had no skills whatsoever, except for yodeling. This explains so much about my Uncle Phil. Thank you, Ancestry.
oh really wookie? wanna hire the guy from bangladesh? www.castingcallpro.com/uk/actor/profile/yousuf-emrani the girl frm france? www.castingcallpro.com/uk/actor/profile/aurelie-amblard This is not real.
maybe your friend is not but there are definitely actors in there. If you're too thick to open the links I published in my first comment, you should think twice before calling other people "jackass".
Bingo!! That was wonderful. I loved it when Mr. "I don't want to be German" finds out he's part German. Also, Mr. I'm better than you, finds out his results are Not cut and dried. Good job.
I'll never get tired of watching this. I agree with the lady at 3:40 i.e. that there is no such thing as a pure race. Best Regards, Michael M. Kamau, Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa, 27th November 2023.
The Ancestry DNA test is GREAT, but the ethnicity profile is just the start of the journey. The cousin matches are the real boon, and if you have even a modest ancestor tree attached to your DNA profile, you will discover all sorts of connections going back many generations. I encourage anyone who hasn't already taken the test to do so, it's well worth the cost even just for the ethnicity profile, but do try to attach your results to an ancestor tree, whatever you can create based on what you know and what your family can tell you. If you do that, then this test can tell you a lot more about your family's personal story than you can imagine.
I love this.. racism is a HUGE problem and I think this shows people that no matter what, you always have some kind of ancestral line that is connected to someone, or some kind of race that you don't particularly like.. ❤️❤️ I love it..
92 % South Asia with other some other regions along with potential distant cousins from the Middle East, European Jewish, Iberian Peninsula, Ireland, its absolutely amazing.
This is crazy. I was literally talking about this yesterday .Everything up to having open minds and me growing up thinking I was only black because that's what I was told as a kid then getting back my results back... It gave me a whole new perspective on everything there is a chance (very unlikely) but of my kid coming out European looking if was to get with someone that skin looks as black as mine. Racism really should not exist because its more colorism than racism . A lot of these people that are against certain races have no idea of their actual genetic makeup if we were aware there would be less judgement. I thought of something that might stop the extremism . Maybe an implantation in all schools across the globe that gives you you're full ancestry from an early age(10 or younger) so that it sticks with you for your whole life and you know the history of who you really are.
This Video is truly amazing, it really shows how alike we all are. The Lady was right! Everbody should know their heritage, that really would change the way people see eachother
THIS IS ACTUALLY SO CUTE. I don't understand why they cried a lot but oh well. I also ummm, already knew I wasn't just one thing? I thought it was common sense that we all had something of everything.
My family ancestors live in the US too. But i have Gypsies,German,Slovak,Czech,Hungarian,Romanian people in our family tree. Greetings from Slovakia. This video IS a really good Kick to start the Discovery.
AncestryDNA uses modeled population groups. You can read more about that in our white paper here: www.ancestry.com/dna/resource/whitePaper/AncestryDNA-Ethnicity-White-Paper.pdf
Shawn M Not real life. thats a animated stuff. I love it dont get me wrong but we will never be separate, we are all family through noah, or first humans. what every you believe in we HAVE to be related.
There are millions of pure blooded people.. I know people that are 99.9% Northwestern European that are made up of German, English and Scandinavian... The myth that says everybody is mixed is total bullshite
This revelation is about the secrets of the BODY! And it has a tremendous power in connecting, uniting humanity! IMAGINE what a power lies in the revelation of the secrets of the SOUL... Ez a leleplezés a TEST titkairól! És micsoda hatalmas ereje van az emberiség összekapcsolásában, egyesítésében! KÉPZELD EL milyen erő rejtezhet a LÉLEK titkainak leleplezésében ... With Love and Oneness / Szeretettel, Kripāmaya🌈
of course we are all connected, we all derived from a common ancestor so its likely that you're related to about 60% of the rest of the world, and the data these guys get is from only as far back as there are records, the first humans on Earth are everyones ancestors, so really it shouldn't a surprise if your ancestors come from almost every country out there. I dont get why these people are so surprised as to where their ancestors are from
I was looking for this video for the last 5 years. I saw by the first time at a philosophy or religion class (I don't remember exactly which was been) in school and I never forgot his... I don't why, but this video had target in my live forever.
The moment I have the money I'm freaking taking this! My dad once said we might have a little Native American in us, but on his side, my Mothers side is mostly Sicilian with my Grandmother, my late mothers mother being Irish.
Wow so many racists or disliking of other countries. If someone asked me if there was a ethnicity I wouldn't want to be, I would say there is none. Come at me, any other nationality I could be! no hate here
Our DNA reveals that we have more in common with each other than we think! Have you ever uncovered a surprising ethnicity in your DNA journey?

I did this. I was certain I was Polish, Bohemian and German. I get my results back, 60 percent eastern europe as expected, but i was 15 percent italian or greek, and 10 percent british. Just shattered what I actually thought I was.
I don't know if those are actors nor if the whole commercial was staged, I don't care, I can't hold my tears each time I re-watch it, and at the same time I find myself smiling till the end. Agree with the lady who says the test should be compulsory, discrimination due to ethnia does not apply anymore. My test revealed procedence from a dozen regions I would never have imagined and I ended up discovering that a very dear friend of mine is also a relative, something that made us both very happy. Do not hesitate, take it !!!

Thanks for watching and for sharing a little of your story, Luis! We're happy to hear that you've also enjoyed exploring your own family history and can imagine that it must be so special to find a family connection to a close friend. All the best with any continuous family research!
Love the video, I think a lot of people are missing out by not taking this test. 👍🏽
This is why you should never hate any countries or ethnicities... We are all part of the same world. So awesome.
My father was Polish.... My mother is Italian... My surname sounds Greek but has Hungarian roots.... I was born in England.... then you can realise why I don't hate anyone...

even with all the criticisms below i still find this video beautiful 😊
I love this video, its moving in so many ways. Show this to everyone, the world would be a much better place!
animus is real
How just anybody didn't notice that hilarious one?
Oo
We traced our roots back to an odd lil European couple who had no skills whatsoever, except for yodeling. This explains so much about my Uncle Phil. Thank you, Ancestry.
This is incredible.
Everytime I watch this I cry. It's so beautiful.
This was a really nice and touching commercial I'm definitely gonna buy the kit soon!
The absolute best Video that posted on UA-cam!! We are all from everywhere! ❤
Thanks so much for watching, Bianca! We're grateful for your kind feedback. 😊
So much drama.. they got good actors!
Its real.....
oh really wookie? wanna hire the guy from bangladesh? www.castingcallpro.com/uk/actor/profile/yousuf-emrani
the girl frm france? www.castingcallpro.com/uk/actor/profile/aurelie-amblard
This is not real.
There are no actors! I know someone who was in this jackass.
at 0:24 I know her.
maybe your friend is not but there are definitely actors in there. If you're too thick to open the links I published in my first comment, you should think twice before calling other people "jackass".
It doesn't matter if they are actors, it's the message that is important her!
That was awesome! Gave me chills :-)
Bingo!! That was wonderful. I loved it when Mr. "I don't want to be German" finds out he's part German. Also, Mr. I'm better than you, finds out his results are Not cut and dried. Good job.
Oh my god, I would absolutely adore and enjoy if i had such an opportunity like this
I'll never get tired of watching this. I agree with the lady at 3:40 i.e. that there is no such thing as a pure race. Best Regards, Michael M. Kamau, Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa, 27th November 2023.
WOW the best ad I've seen on UA-cam! glad I didn't skip
THIS IS BRILLIANT! I found out my dna and was both shocked and not shocked at all.
1/36 Irish totally makes you Irish.
The Ancestry DNA test is GREAT, but the ethnicity profile is just the start of the journey. The cousin matches are the real boon, and if you have even a modest ancestor tree attached to your DNA profile, you will discover all sorts of connections going back many generations. I encourage anyone who hasn't already taken the test to do so, it's well worth the cost even just for the ethnicity profile, but do try to attach your results to an ancestor tree, whatever you can create based on what you know and what your family can tell you. If you do that, then this test can tell you a lot more about your family's personal story than you can imagine.
I love this.. racism is a HUGE problem and I think this shows people that no matter what, you always have some kind of ancestral line that is connected to someone, or some kind of race that you don't particularly like.. ❤️❤️ I love it..
92 % South Asia with other some other regions along with potential distant cousins from the Middle East, European Jewish, Iberian Peninsula, Ireland, its absolutely amazing.
This is crazy. I was literally talking about this yesterday .Everything up to having open minds and me growing up thinking I was only black because that's what I was told as a kid then getting back my results back...
It gave me a whole new perspective on everything there is a chance (very unlikely) but of my kid coming out European looking if was to get with someone that skin looks as black as mine.
Racism really should not exist because its more colorism than racism . A lot of these people that are against certain races have no idea of their actual genetic makeup if we were aware there would be less judgement.
I thought of something that might stop the extremism . Maybe an implantation in all schools across the globe that gives you you're full ancestry from an early age(10 or younger) so that it sticks with you for your whole life and you know the history of who you really are.
I ‘m Excited waiting for my kit now! So so excited I’m sure going to have a mixture of things yay
Maybe this is the reason why I dont believe in coutries or nacionalities. I only believe in people.
Guishermito Busta it doesn't matter if you don't believe in them, they're not Santa Claus or god, they are very real and they exist.
It just divides people, same for the social construct known as "race".
This Video is truly amazing, it really shows how alike we all are. The Lady was right! Everbody should know their heritage, that really would change the way people see eachother
I agree with that lady too. Best Regards, Michael M. Kamau, Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa, 27th November 2023.
THIS IS ACTUALLY SO CUTE. I don't understand why they cried a lot but oh well. I also ummm, already knew I wasn't just one thing? I thought it was common sense that we all had something of everything.
I also wish this could happen to me. ):
My family ancestors live in the US too.
But i have Gypsies,German,Slovak,Czech,Hungarian,Romanian people in our family tree.
Greetings from Slovakia.
This video IS a really good Kick to start the Discovery.

Javaria Adeel yes?
This commercial makes me cry EVERY time 😩😩❤️
If there is no "pure ethnicities " How can they tell if you are %German Turkish, ect. There must be "pure specimens" to compare to
AncestryDNA uses modeled population groups. You can read more about that in our white paper here: www.ancestry.com/dna/resource/whitePaper/AncestryDNA-Ethnicity-White-Paper.pdf
yeah, but they died a long time ago.
anime irl the majority are pure fyi

Not real life. thats a animated stuff. I love it dont get me wrong but we will never be separate, we are all family through noah, or first humans. what every you believe in we HAVE to be related.
There are millions of pure blooded people.. I know people that are 99.9% Northwestern European that are made up of German, English and Scandinavian... The myth that says everybody is mixed is total bullshite
0:23 she's singing the old Russian Imperial Anthem, wow, wasn't expecting that. History is such a powerful thing.
3:41 ....aaand there it is.
iinRez ... And, although this is staged, *of course* it’s from a Frenchwoman.
I loved this video, absolutely wonderful. Thank you.
My teacher showed this to us at school and I nearly cried at the cousins
This revelation is about the secrets of the BODY! And it has a tremendous power in connecting, uniting humanity! IMAGINE what a power lies in the revelation of the secrets of the SOUL...

I would love to know about the guy from Bangladesh!!
please make a video based on DNA journey about that guy.....
Oh gosh this is very emotional! 😭
of course we are all connected, we all derived from a common ancestor so its likely that you're related to about 60% of the rest of the world, and the data these guys get is from only as far back as there are records, the first humans on Earth are everyones ancestors, so really it shouldn't a surprise if your ancestors come from almost every country out there. I dont get why these people are so surprised as to where their ancestors are from
I was looking for this video for the last 5 years. I saw by the first time at a philosophy or religion class (I don't remember exactly which was been) in school and I never forgot his... I don't why, but this video had target in my live forever.
Hi Pi, we are glad to hear that you have been able to find this video again.
Amazingly beautiful, we are all parts of each other, more or less! 8)
The moment I have the money I'm freaking taking this! My dad once said we might have a little Native American in us, but on his side, my Mothers side is mostly Sicilian with my Grandmother, my late mothers mother being Irish.
AMAZING!
Indeed!
The guy who loved to wish to be a Bangladeshi, Me sending greetings from Bangladesh !!!
Wow so many racists or disliking of other countries. If someone asked me if there was a ethnicity I wouldn't want to be, I would say there is none. Come at me, any other nationality I could be! no hate here
This authenticate the Fact "You only know what YOU know & even that is NOT 100% GUARANTEED"
these guys are actors
this was so POWERFUL
The dude “from Iceland” doesn’t even have an Icelandic accent.
Amazing advertisement! Thank you for creating this.
I think, I should try that with my twin sister.
Thank you so much ! this is a great work for all of us !
"Dövlet bize bökmiyidir ha"
Absolutely beautiful.
