Looking at you video and reading all the additions in comments makes one wonder why there was (and possibly still is) so much creative thinking in The Netherlands... Maybe the answer lies in the saying "God created the world, but the Dutch created The Netherlands".
That very well could be! :D Perhaps it's in the Gouda... the water.. or haring (omega 3, baby!). Whatever it is, we're in awe of the level of creativity and the "can-do" spirit of the Dutchies!

I think it might also have to do with the fact that it's a small country, so we have limited space and have to be very efficient with how we use it.

My grandfather always told me the story of the invention of the color TV at Phillips (which was an international efford). They used to show the first color screens to the cleaning and security crews to ask them what they thought about it. They were flabbergasted.

Ik ben een zuiderling (Eindhoven) en ik begrijp je sentiment, maar Amsterdam is voor veel mensen buiten Nederland wel het referentiepunt en ondanks alles onze hoofdstad. En laten we niet vergeten dat de dames van "Who is Amsterdam Tours" specifiek aandacht schonken aan Philips, mede de reden waarom Eindhoven zo groot is geworden.
they forget a few things they also found out the extinction policy for the jenische people also called kampers in Dutch The exploitation and torture of the Indonesian people Slave trade to America Apartheid south africa is also a dutch invention And a lot more things that the Netherlands is afraid to talk about
Hey there! Thanks for watching our video! Since this video is about amazing Dutch inventions, we decided to go with this list. We're aware of the rest, so maybe we'll cover that in the future. Thanks again for watching!
Dutch invented apartheid? The Dutch sounding name should not be conflated with a policy of segragation coming form South African politics. Nothing to do with Netherlands. Btw, and no not trying out whataboutism, do check out how Indonesians treated non whites during the merdeka period. So sure let's talk and discuss. Mean time I have moved on form both 80 years war agaisnt the Spanish and years occupation by the NAZIS. Just keep things real, peace!
@@ervie60 i still wake up covered in sweat from fear for the Romans 2000 years ago. but seriously, those people who cherry-pick things from a nation/group to b*tch about are just stupid. every nation/culture etc has done terrible things and things we wouldn't do now anymore. but slave trade/slavery used to be just another "normal" thing like child labor. compare it with fossil fuel. since the industrial revolution it's been the backbone of progress. but it might become illegal in the (near) future, as good alternatives will become more and more easily available.

I visited aRENa a few times, it's a bad stadium. No atmosphere, all concrete.
Hey there! Sorry to hear you didn't have a good experience personally. For Amsterdammers, it's special cos of the legendary Johan Cruijff. His legend lives on. :) But hey, thanks for watching our video though! Do consider subscribing for more great Amsterdam content!
Have been to a Bon Jovi concert there was terrible, the music bouncing around and voice hard to hear
@@annemariedusselaar9862 Hi Annamarie, we're sorry you didn't have a good audio experience there. But hey, Amsterdam has plenty of awesome venues. Our favourite is Paradiso. A former church that's got tons of atmosphere and awesome, intimate vibes. You can call it the temple of music - David Bowie, Amy Winehouse have played there. Check it out next time! Also, thanks for watching our video! Do consider subscribing for more awesome Dutch and Amsterdam-related content and more tips coming soon! :)
Yeah the Kuip in Rotterdam is the best concert stadium. The acoustics are awesome and the atmosphere and layout of the stadium make every concert magical. Too bad it's aging now. Hopefully the new stadium will be just as good. 🤞
Leuk gemaakt!

Why didn't you mentioned the orange carrots? The Dutch made the carrot orange.
Hey Draco, actually the orange carrot was already available! But the Dutch were the first to attribute it to the royals! 🙌 Thanks for watching our video and do consider subscribing for more awesome Dutch and Amsterdam content!
Lovely video made by a cute couple.
But please can we stop saying "gay marriage" legally there is no such thing. Marriage equality is what it is.

Amsterdam has nothing to do with the Netherlands
Thanks for your comment! Yes, Amsterdam is quite a different landscape and creature altogether. We love being here and being in this beautiful country. Thanks for watching our video. We appreciate you.
Ik ben een zuiderling (Eindhoven) en ik begrijp je sentiment, maar Amsterdam is voor veel mensen buiten Nederland wel het referentiepunt en ondanks alles onze hoofdstad. En laten we niet vergeten dat de dames van "Who is Amsterdam Tours" specifiek aandacht schonken aan Philips, mede de reden waarom Eindhoven zo groot is geworden.
Dutch need to get there facts right they did not invent the wifi Australia did
they forget a few things
they also found out the extinction policy for the jenische people also called kampers in Dutch
The exploitation and torture of the Indonesian people
Slave trade to America
Apartheid south africa is also a dutch invention
And a lot more things that the Netherlands is afraid to talk about
Hey there! Thanks for watching our video! Since this video is about amazing Dutch inventions, we decided to go with this list. We're aware of the rest, so maybe we'll cover that in the future. Thanks again for watching!
Dutch invented apartheid? The Dutch sounding name should not be conflated with a policy of segragation coming form South African politics. Nothing to do with Netherlands.
Btw, and no not trying out whataboutism, do check out how Indonesians treated non whites during the merdeka period. So sure let's talk and discuss.
Mean time I have moved on form both 80 years war agaisnt the Spanish and years occupation by the NAZIS. Just keep things real, peace!
@@ervie60 i still wake up covered in sweat from fear for the Romans 2000 years ago.
but seriously, those people who cherry-pick things from a nation/group to b*tch about are just stupid.
every nation/culture etc has done terrible things and things we wouldn't do now anymore. but slave trade/slavery used to be just another "normal" thing like child labor.
compare it with fossil fuel. since the industrial revolution it's been the backbone of progress. but it might become illegal in the (near) future, as good alternatives will become more and more easily available.
@@ChristiaanHW Agree with you.
Some Indonesian trolls are (mis)using you tube.
Just reply with one recent name: Timor,enough to shut them up.
Pot calling kettle black principle. :)
Nothing typical Dutch.
I'm dutch I knew everything. Except the vikings and his blue thooth .. but I knew whe invented it
Bullshit... Ericsson is a Swedish company and Jaap was only one guy in the team working for them!!
