They are. Obviously, sometimes a train is going to be cancelled. That doesn’t mean it’s still not better than América train system and public transport in general.
he would have been able to take any of the other trains to frankfurt though, as the ticket would be valid for the whole route even if the train got cancelled! #zugbindungaufgehoben
I absolutely lost it at the “Zug fällt aus“ part. This entire time I was like “can’t wait for them to get to germany and have all of their plans messed up by DB” 😂😂😂
Ich wäre enttäuscht, wenn das nicht passiert wäre 😂 Auch die Verspätung auf der Schwarzwald-Bahn war halt so berechenbar - wenn man weiß, worauf man sich einlässt 😅
croatia is the same with nationalized rail as it was in ww2, outdoing the germans in how bad they are. If a train arrives within an hour of its scheduled time, it is considered on time. Also the average speed of passenger trains is like 50 km/h.
I love that Sam is so focused on the game he just casually has a shot of Cologne Cathedral in the background not once, not twice, but multiple times!. One of the most famous and most impressive churches in the world within a few hundred yards, doesn't have time to take in the view haha. That said, very cool series. Love the creativity. Keep up the great work.
I started laughing so hard when they said not to run so people wouldn't think there was an attack, but as someone who would ride the Deutsch Bahn (german train) all the time, trust me people are SPRINTING through the station at times because of all the delays that happen lolll. Also I'm team ben and/or adam so when sam was upset that his starin was cancelled I laughed a little because fun fact, if the Deutsch Bahn canceled your train literally all you have to do is wait for the next one or go on an alternative and they'll let you on because in their program that they use to scan tickets they can see if a train was cancelled and thus you don't have to buy a new ticket.
@@Tehnameless1 My guess is it would be fine since the coins are used to buy the ticket not ride the train. Some train tickets in Europe are anytime tickets which can be used on any train for the journey you purchased it for that day, so in this case the ticket would be acting sort of like one of those
I think its hilarious that Sam's brain is like "well humans are animals so i can touch one of them" in an insane rule bend, but not "Well a berliner is just a jelly filled doughnut right?" so he goes out of his way (albeit not that much) to find a place that specifically calls it a berliner.
@@ThePrimevalVoid Not necessarily. I think it's in both Sam's and Adam's best interest to make a deal with one another. Helping one another would increase the chances of winning for both of them. That would make it really difficult to guess the winner, right?
@@DavidJonRandom Adam has to get closer to Jersey than Ben got to Borkum, and unfortunately that means going slightly west of Paris (on city trains) which is slightly too tight imo unless he has enuf coins for high speed rail
He's playing by different rules. The others pull a card and do the challenge on the spot or veto. He's pulling a card and just completing it some time in the future, even in a different city.
Obviously not at the Wiener Feinbaeckerei, Dunkin' or any other place at the station which only sell pretzels and buns or donuts for travelers "on the hand".
"Don't run, everyone is thinking there's a terrorist attack" Nope, most people would probably think that you're late for you're train which is normal lmao
19:50 To clarify about all the Badens: The whole region between Mannheim and Basel is called Baden. Then, there's the town called Baden-Baden which is in the region of Baden. The town where Ben and Adam are at 19:50 is called Bühl. The Baden in brackets means that it's the one Bühl in Baden because there are other towns or parts of towns called Bühl. That's why they added the region to the station sign.
I'M SO ADDICTED TO THIS CHANNEL!! ...Idk who other people are rooting for but I'm literally rooting for whoever is the runner at any given moment, lol.
Just a tip for the future: Unlike in other countries, in Germany, when you buy a train ticket, you buy one trip from the starting point to the finish point, NOT the trip in a specific train. In other words, if the train you were supposed to take is ever cancelled, you do not need to buy a new ticket to take another train, including slower ones (faster ones can only be taken under the circumstance that a long enough delay occurs)
10:50 policy of the german railway srvice is that you can use your ticket to take any alternative connection. You wont have a reserved seat, but you could just take the next train after.
Yeah, but that's just for the actual train tickets. But they're using their coins as stand in currency. So while he might only have to pay the Flexpreis ticket with actual money once, he still has to pay the trip with their coins, cause that's the rule, if you can take the trip or not.
isn't that just all trains? idk the uk doesn't have reserved seats like.. at all so you jsut kinda buy tickets from one place to the other by any route..
Sam, you can get a Berliner at literally any bakery in Germany. Bakeries are everywhere. Although Berliners also go by "Pfannkuchen" or "Krapfen" depending on where in Germany you are.
I was physically in pain when he called them "donuts" though, that simply goes too far. I'm aware that's what they'd be in English but it feels deeply wrong.
It's absolutely mental to watch the past episodes of this series seeing you guys go through France and Belgium... and now you've not only ended up in Germany, but even went to the region and the cities I live and used to live in. Really cool to see my home region in this challenge
I’m a nebula subscriber and got the opportunity to watch the next episode early. Big surprises ahead. Unfortunately Ben ends up in a French hospital for 8 months having sustained a long term trauma injury. Adam is arrested by Swiss police upon entry into the country. Sam elopes with the former 2005 Miss Arkansas and they live happily ever after. Really great series- we need more!
yes of course the high tension scenes are hilarious but it was so funny seeing adam knock the water bottle off the table and sam's phone fall slowly, like damn the editors have a sense of humour i love it

Spoiler I think every german knew that relying on the Deutsche Bahn would turn out to be a huge mistake. This episode was honestly crazy, so many things happening and the end was madness. Honestly hyped that Ben might still have a chance to win. Great show!
that's what i was thinking too. there were so many posibilities with the amount of coins he already had + whatever he could have farmed and virtualy no chance of getting caught.

For the next time if you book a DB train to some destination and it is delayed enough (I think 20 min) or cancelled you can take any other train to this destination.
doesnt help them here because their rules say they have to spent points for every train... but they could only book from one station to the next to get on the train (if it comes) and than book the whole trip once they are in the train
@@edenoftheeast1739 Honestly I'd say it's fine to use this rule, as then traveling through Germany is actually possible. The only addition I would make is that you HAVE to get off at the station you bought the ticket for, and not earlier on a different line.
so like, when DB cancels your train do they just tell passengers to go fuck themselves? or are the tickets good for a replacement train as well? if so, could that be a rule that carries over into coins?
@@bobidou23 just checked the ruling: if your train is delayed by 20+ minutes or canceled, you're allowed to take a later train of the same exact line, or to get your money back for tickets you bought for a different line. That said, because you do actually need to pay for new tickets, I don't think Jet Lag should be allowed to travel without using travel coins, so I retract what I said in a previous reply.
No-he wouldn’t have the challenge deck which is with Sam, and thus he would need them and he and ben would have to be together at all times under the rules.
Y'all should play this game next in the Nordic countries! I'd love to see the chaos which ensues when you'd go to Finland and all the trains would be late 🤣🤣
Can't be worse than Cologne. Just this week, I've had delays of up to 2h for 20 minute trips and not a single train of my daily commute has been on time.
Thank you so much for having amazing subtitles for these videos! It really helps me follow along since I can't always hear very well and process otherwise.
as i understood the rules, the shop had to advertise it as a berliner or it wouldn't count. doughnut's probably just what they call it in the us, so that's what sam called it.
Ok, so, Adam failed to get off the train before it left, but if he did manage to get off in time, he still would've needed the challenge cards, which are with Sam. So there was no chance for Adam to get off the train anyway
well i think if the train had left a bit later sam and ben would've been forced to get off the train as well, otherwise they could sabotage adam by staying there which would be unfair like when adam got caught in paris they all left the train corridor and went out of the station to reset the runner role and items
Genuine question, if Adam got spooked and jumped off the train before Ben tagged Sam and then Ben and Sam were stuck on the train would the game have just... stopped?
Props to the team for naming berliner the right way because we germans are really arguing about that name and berliner is the one and only right one. Good job
The interesting thing is that DB tickets, once your train gets cancelled, become "you can take any train which gets you closer no matter what" tickets so technically the coins aren't gone you could just hop on any train or am I missing something? Also it could have turned out more interesting because Frankfurt main station and the airport are equally well serviced (like trains which stop at the airport may not stop at the main station and vice versa), some trains avoid Frankfurt all together and some trains avoid Mannheim but I guess that doesn't work well if you need to be fast and are in a hurry.
there's nothing that fuels my dopamine more than seeing a hopeful american at a train station pulling out google translate to type in "zug fällt aus" and just seeing the light in their eyes extinguish as they realize that yeah, we weren't kidding about how bad it is and that every third train is cancelled because idfk they popped a tire or forgot to set the tracks properly and surprise sent everyone to hannover instead of frankfurt or something never fails to disappoint, you put the bar on the ground and they bring a shovel :):
as a german i am not surprised that the train was cancelled. try not to travel by train in germany when it is an improtant trip. but very cool series its is fun to watch.😄
If there are any Americans reading this, is it really like that? That you don't run in train stations because people could think it's a terrorist attack?
He should have taken a regional train to darmstadt which looks like its barely in his winning zone. Then with more regional trains along the border between the zones further east until he is in the middle of nowhere.
@@wave1090 Yeah and you can just spam challenges until you have enough points to freeze the chasers or find out where they are (which Sam used pretty well at the start of this episode). You can wait until your train's about to leave, or when a train they could feasibly get on to get to your location is about to leave, and then freeze them so they can't get on. Or if you track them, you can find out what train they're on and right as you see them approaching your town you just get on the nearest train that leaves (and if they're still far away then you can chill continuing challenges). It's a shame he didn't have enough points to freeze the chasers right before they got on this train since it was leaving so soon after; it would've been legendary. On another note Adam's in an interesting spot since it's basically impossible for him to win now, so he's in the driver's seat to decide who he wants to win lol (it's called being a kingmaker in game theory). If they do this more (which I hope they do) they should definitely add a rule that balances it out to give the 3rd player an incentive where they can still win. Or do a 1v1 type mode, or bring on one more person to do teams or something!
This is so insane, i found your channel while i was in America doing travels and vaction on my own. And now back in Germany you guys are literally traveling through my neighbourhood. Love this series :D

@@liammidd all it takes is a curiosity stream subscription of $15 for the year. It's worth it. I won't spoil it here, but there is a TON of suspense in that last episode.
Oh my god, the build-up! It's so perfect! At the start of this episode, I really didn't think it could still be anyone's game. But the plot twist!! I can't wait to see what happens next.
one tip for Sam: if an ICE train is cancelled in Germany, he can use the same ticket he bought to get on any trains as long as he is going to the direction of the destination.
You guys should play Scotland Yard IRL next time. Kinda similar mechanics, except instead of a tracker, they have to reveal what form of transportation they are on. Love this series.
It is so funny to see you in cologne because I knew every place you where walking by, it’s just typical that the German train system has failed you, that is what we go through every day! Great video❤️
This is by far the best series you guys made so far. This concept and game is way better, and far more exciting to watch, then the 4 in a row, and the circumnavigate game. Hope you repeat this concept more!
It's so funny how for 5 episodes the train rides were flawless and then Deutsche Bahn kicks in
exactly. I was like: You sure you wanna go to Germany ?? xDD
I was reliably informed by Europeans that trains are super duper convenient and way better than American cars.
They are. Obviously, sometimes a train is going to be cancelled. That doesn’t mean it’s still not better than América train system and public transport in general.

For the next time if you book a DB train to some destination and it is delayed enough (I think 20 min) or cancelled you can take any other train to this destination.
Yes finally somebody pointed that out
doesnt help them here because their rules say they have to spent points for every train...
but they could only book from one station to the next to get on the train (if it comes) and than book the whole trip once they are in the train
@@edenoftheeast1739 Honestly I'd say it's fine to use this rule, as then traveling through Germany is actually possible. The only addition I would make is that you HAVE to get off at the station you bought the ticket for, and not earlier on a different line.
so like, when DB cancels your train do they just tell passengers to go fuck themselves? or are the tickets good for a replacement train as well? if so, could that be a rule that carries over into coins?
@@bobidou23 just checked the ruling: if your train is delayed by 20+ minutes or canceled, you're allowed to take a later train of the same exact line, or to get your money back for tickets you bought for a different line.
That said, because you do actually need to pay for new tickets, I don't think Jet Lag should be allowed to travel without using travel coins, so I retract what I said in a previous reply.
ben speedwalking through a train station whilst singing everything is okay is the epitome of positive affirmations
big brain play for Adam would be to get off the train before Sam even being tagged as it's certain Ben would catch sam
No-he wouldn’t have the challenge deck which is with Sam, and thus he would need them and he and ben would have to be together at all times under the rules.
I can’t put it in words how much I love this series. Gimme more, pleaaaaase ❤️
Sam posted on Twitter earlier today saying he was planning his outfit for the next series.
Y'all should play this game next in the Nordic countries! I'd love to see the chaos which ensues when you'd go to Finland and all the trains would be late 🤣🤣
Can't be worse than Cologne. Just this week, I've had delays of up to 2h for 20 minute trips and not a single train of my daily commute has been on time.
Wouldnt really be interesting since there are so few train lines
Yup
late/cancelled trains are definitely a part of the Nordic culture too lmaoooo
He didn't get off the train in time, oh that is real suspense, cant wait on EP 7!
Thank you so much for having amazing subtitles for these videos! It really helps me follow along since I can't always hear very well and process otherwise.
This is literally my favorite series on UA-cam
"there are no berliners, they call them doughnuts......."
-buys a berliner
"once i finish this doughnut...."
as i understood the rules, the shop had to advertise it as a berliner or it wouldn't count. doughnut's probably just what they call it in the us, so that's what sam called it.
Ok, so, Adam failed to get off the train before it left, but if he did manage to get off in time, he still would've needed the challenge cards, which are with Sam. So there was no chance for Adam to get off the train anyway
well i think if the train had left a bit later sam and ben would've been forced to get off the train as well, otherwise they could sabotage adam by staying there which would be unfair
like when adam got caught in paris they all left the train corridor and went out of the station to reset the runner role and items
@@cyclon3s good point
Genuine question, if Adam got spooked and jumped off the train before Ben tagged Sam and then Ben and Sam were stuck on the train would the game have just... stopped?
@@EngineerLume Adam still wouldn’t have the challenges (which Sam has) and he and Ben have to be together as chasers.
Gonna miss this series when it’s done 😢
Came here to say that same thing. :)
@@gidstanton7173 Second-last one
Just another episode with Ben, Adam and Erling Haaland
Props to the team for naming berliner the right way because we germans are really arguing about that name and berliner is the one and only right one. Good job
The interesting thing is that DB tickets, once your train gets cancelled, become "you can take any train which gets you closer no matter what" tickets so technically the coins aren't gone you could just hop on any train or am I missing something?
Also it could have turned out more interesting because Frankfurt main station and the airport are equally well serviced (like trains which stop at the airport may not stop at the main station and vice versa), some trains avoid Frankfurt all together and some trains avoid Mannheim but I guess that doesn't work well if you need to be fast and are in a hurry.
Me being from Germany myself this is definitely a certified Deutsche Bahn moment
I laughed so hard at “zug fällt aus”… Deutsche Bahn moment
@qiaxlo bro don't spoil it for everyone on UA-cam -_-
@qiaxlo I read the first quarter not gonna read the rest
there's nothing that fuels my dopamine more than seeing a hopeful american at a train station pulling out google translate to type in "zug fällt aus" and just seeing the light in their eyes extinguish as they realize that yeah, we weren't kidding about how bad it is and that every third train is cancelled because idfk they popped a tire or forgot to set the tracks properly and surprise sent everyone to hannover instead of frankfurt or something
never fails to disappoint, you put the bar on the ground and they bring a shovel :):
as a german i am not surprised that the train was cancelled. try not to travel by train in germany when it is an improtant trip.
but very cool series its is fun to watch.😄
Europe is so amazing. The fact that in a few days you have crossed numerous borders without being stopped is so amazing to me
Loved this season! Would love to see something like this again, definitely more repeatable than earlier seasons
this DB experience is exactly what I was hoping for ahhh
I laughed so hard at “zug fällt aus”… Deutsche Bahn moment
5:08 running in a train station is just the basic thing to do in a train station 😂😂
Yeah, nobody thinks is a terrorist attack. People just think you are late to your train
If there are any Americans reading this, is it really like that? That you don't run in train stations because people could think it's a terrorist attack?
He should have taken a regional train to darmstadt which looks like its barely in his winning zone. Then with more regional trains along the border between the zones further east until he is in the middle of nowhere.
Lol, honestly a winning strategy. Should've just taken a train down to some random village in the middle of the Schwarzwald
@@wave1090 Yeah and you can just spam challenges until you have enough points to freeze the chasers or find out where they are (which Sam used pretty well at the start of this episode). You can wait until your train's about to leave, or when a train they could feasibly get on to get to your location is about to leave, and then freeze them so they can't get on. Or if you track them, you can find out what train they're on and right as you see them approaching your town you just get on the nearest train that leaves (and if they're still far away then you can chill continuing challenges). It's a shame he didn't have enough points to freeze the chasers right before they got on this train since it was leaving so soon after; it would've been legendary.
On another note Adam's in an interesting spot since it's basically impossible for him to win now, so he's in the driver's seat to decide who he wants to win lol (it's called being a kingmaker in game theory). If they do this more (which I hope they do) they should definitely add a rule that balances it out to give the 3rd player an incentive where they can still win. Or do a 1v1 type mode, or bring on one more person to do teams or something!
One of the most well-made series on youtube. Absolutely spectacular
Wednesday is becoming one of my favorite days of the week because of these guys!
Insane timing first minute club
My German heart bled at the Berliner being called a Donut
@deprimeret chæetåh Nochmal in Deutsch, bitte?
@deprimeret chæetåh Berliner
Let's GO! Love this series guys, keep up the good work.
I hate the delays and cancellations of Deutsche Bahn, but I love it for watching you to get along with it.
Very nice series =) Thanks!
Can't wait to see the epic finale! This has been a great show to watch with my mum these past couple of weeks!
Wednesday's wouldn't be the same anymore without them.
True
Sadly it's ending soon...
Season 4 on the way 😉
This is so insane, i found your channel while i was in America doing travels and vaction on my own. And now back in Germany you guys are literally traveling through my neighbourhood. Love this series :D
How'd u like the US. Did u try the famous foods?
@@greenmachine5600 From Mannheim usa has no famous food its foodf rom around the world with extra fat and sugar
yes
I subscribed to Nebula just because I couldn’t wait to see the end of this. This is not a paid promotion. It’s that good.
Its so fun watching these videos. I literally binge watched all video on this channel in 2 days.
I've been watching over on nebula, but these are my favorite videos ever. I'm more excited each week for these episodes than anything else! Thank you for a great 3rd season!
Who won? Please tell me I have to know
@@liammidd all it takes is a curiosity stream subscription of $15 for the year. It's worth it. I won't spoil it here, but there is a TON of suspense in that last episode.
I laughed so hard when he walked across that bakery that clearly had a bunch of berliners in one section and he walked past it
Your videos are honestly the only thing getting me through 2 weeks of covid!
hope u get better
Get well soon!!
get well soon we believe in you
When Sam was in Frankfurt he could've tried to reach 5'500 points and fly to Zurich at 13:00.
Oh my god, the build-up! It's so perfect! At the start of this episode, I really didn't think it could still be anyone's game. But the plot twist!! I can't wait to see what happens next.
It's amazing such train-schedule-and-route masters they are.
It’s so funny that they all have brilliant plans and the DB just fucks it up
Best show on UA-cam. Hope you guys plan on doing another one
Every new episode makes me love Ben even more lmao
I can't say enough about how great this game is. Hope to see many versions of it
„The train is there, it’s on time, it’s great“
Me: „He’s going to Cologne next so let’s see how much longer he can say that sentence“
21:41 Those people behind need to get a room lol
My favorite season so far! Can't wait for finale
I love how realistic this is: As soon as you're in Germany, everything is delayed or cancelled. Sänk ju for trawellin wis Deutsche Bahn.
i love this channel so much. the quality of a regular tv show for free on youtube. thanks so much sam for this great show lol
I love how basically the minute they step into Germany, DB messes up all their days.
one tip for Sam: if an ICE train is cancelled in Germany, he can use the same ticket he bought to get on any trains as long as he is going to the direction of the destination.
He can’t. The trains are payed for with coins, not actual tickets in the game.
I watched the finale on Nebula, good show! Very wholesome at the end, thanks for the entire series. Please do more!
Some moments are just too stressful, sometimes it seems like the runners have got him, but other times seems like the runner outsmarted them
You guys should play Scotland Yard IRL next time. Kinda similar mechanics, except instead of a tracker, they have to reveal what form of transportation they are on. Love this series.
I never anticipate these episodes but am always so happy when they come out.
Me too
This episode absolutely made my day. Well done, all!
It is so funny to see you in cologne because I knew every place you where walking by, it’s just typical that the German train system has failed you, that is what we go through every day! Great video❤️
This series is awesome! I can’t wait for season 4😊
This is by far the best series you guys made so far.
This concept and game is way better, and far more exciting to watch, then the 4 in a row, and the circumnavigate game.
Hope you repeat this concept more!
I went to europe recently, mainly germany, and its cool to see the different places I visited in this video
