      She lacks nothing. She is a 100 out of 10. I made out with her court-side at Mavs games one time and Luka got jealous but then I woke up realizing it was all just a dream and she would inevitably have rejected me in that same scenario if the kiss cam came on, by back handed slapping my ugly face before tossing her court-side beer into my dull eyes in order that I become temporarily blinded, so that she can run away while Luka tells security to kick me out for trying to kiss cam a girl who is evidently way out of my league, which security would immediately then agree and start clubbing me with their betan before throwing me in the trash can out back with the rats who all even find me disgusting.

    If you plan to make a future video, consider mentioning Jure Robič. He was a Slovenian cyclist who won numerous races, including the Race Across America (RAAM) five times, setting a record in the men's solo category at the time. Tragically, he passed away during a training session when he was struck by an oncoming car.

      I'm not a big road cycling fan but kinda interested in the race across America and bike packing as a way of cheap travel and seeing the country. Not pedal the whole way but take a small fuel efficient motorcycle or ebike. I have a van but since it doesn't have a wet bath. I think it's a waste of money in fuel/poor mpgs, vehicle maintenance, possible expensive breakdown,etc. If it had a wetbath, decent mpgs, reliable then I'd consider taking it. I think van life is kinda dumb with no wetbath & 15mpgs. When you could have a bigger RV with more room, wetbath. With only slightly less mpgs, like 12 🆚 15.

    As an honorable mention would add the swordsman and knight Reepicheep whom we consider an honorary Slovenian. For it was along River Soca, Bovac, Slovenia after the Battle of Beruna where the great Aslan restored Reepicheep's tail and "it's the honor and glory of a mouse." In addition to being a noble and victorious warrior, Reepcheep, the honorary Slovenian from Narnia, is fitting to describe him as courteous, courageous and chivalrous.

    Igor Akrapovič is the only famous person I know of, well he is famous in the motorcycle and car world. Great story about him, A self made man and started a small aftermarket company making exhaust systems for motorcycles called Skorpion, Before Slovenia gained its independence in 1991.
    Igor was a motorcycle racer from 1977 until around 1989, He found that the companies already making performance exhaust systems for motorcycles in soviet countries were not good quality, and that American brands were too expensive so he started making his own exhaust systems in 1990, Slowly his products were gaining a reputation for quality and also offering performance gains. Eventually they were contracted to provide an exhaust system for a professional race team and his brand got recognition. After a few years he renamed the company Akrapovič and in 2010 the company branched out to include automobile exhaust systems. Now you mention Akrapovič and people know it’s a name that means excellence. I use it on my motorcycle. Anyways that is the only Slovenian I know of besides you.

    Is a video I watch every few months for years it’s so good!

    1st 1, i member him from you mentioning him before, as i am not a basketball fan, i wouldn't know know who he was.
    2nd one. Either 1 i only know, because you have mentioned him, as i don't follow that sport as well.
    Third 1, same as the 2 before.
    Fourth one. I didn't know rock wall climbing is a sport now.
    The 5th 1. Same as 1,2 and 3.
    The 6th one. I wonder if he did swimming in freezing water. As apparently that record for longest under water that is freezing is being held by a Dutch guy.
    The Seventh 1. Idk that guy before though.
    The Eight one. She either did some adult movies. Either her younger years she looks a bit like Sofía Vergara in her younger years, even though they come from 2 completely diff countries. She either knows more languages than the 1st lady after her, not just ones before her.
    The 9th. I don't follow that sport as well.
    The tenth. His nickname in Romanian would be Dracul. Wonder if he is born in year of Dragon as well.
    The 11th aka crazy nr. You missed 1 famous Slovenian, her named is Barbara Horvat.
    In part 2, do some historical figures in that 1 or famous animals.
    Soccer is the biggest sport in my country and i only know of some older players, because classmates talked aboot it, i never liked the "sport".

    That is how us Slovenian see our famous people. Other countries maybe see Slovenia diffrently and depends in what are they interested in. And yeah, we are good in sports. Go Barbara 😉

    It's worth mentioning the Slavoj Žižek's physical mannerisms (pulling at his clothes and grabbing his nose) are not down to simple annoying habits. He suffers from involuntary 'tics' which doctors have speculated is probably a form of Tourettes.
    And Melania (originally Melanija) Trump's claimed language skills have been disputed. In fact she has never been heard to say more than a few words of Italian, German or French before switching to English. She obviously does speak English and like most Slovenes of her age she will speak Serbo-Croat too so I suppose she probably does speak more languages than any other First Lady but I would never describe her as a 'noted polyglot'. And I don't think it's unfair to point out that, although she has lived in the USA for probably longer than you've been alive, her English is nowhere near as good as yours.

    14:49 If he is into psychoanalysis and Hegelianism, I'm afraid that Slavoj as my colleague (though I'm not good at oral debates) is probably also Evolutionist, alas.
