As a little background to the gameshow: Originally, the show was called "Schlag den Raab". Elton was not yet the host, he only appeared in one specific quiz game. Every episode, german TV star Stefan Raab would compete against normal people. Contrary to what this might make you believe, the games were far from just bean bags and geography. It could be anything, quizzes about anything, sawing a log as fast as possible, milking a cow, driving weird vehicles... The price for beating Stefan Raab was massive: 500,000€. That's not all: when the competitor lost, the jackpot would rise. The highest jackpot somebody has won was 3,5 million. After a few years, Stefan Raab retired from being a TV star, only working behind the scenes from then on. That's when the show became "Schlag den Star". Instead of the same star every show, each show had a different celebrity, and the jackpot would be drastically decreased. So did the popularity of the show. Eventually, the normal person was scrapped and two celebritys started competing.
So this show was adapted for Swedish TV as well. Initially called "Vem kan slå Filip och Fredrik", two contestants team up against Filip Hammar and Fredrik Wikingsson, who are basically two tv personalities who are super knowledgeable, and somewhat fit. Now they've been replaced by alpine skiing and hockey legends Anja Pärson and Peter "Foppa" Forsberg. A bit harder to go up against former world champion athletes in the physical challenges haha.
The game worked so well with Raab as he is a god tier gamer. He simply didn't give up and fought every game like his life depended on it. I think most viewers had a love /hate relationship with him in this show. The audience normally sided with the guest every time. There was one episode with Hans Martin though. He was a random guest, who was so unsympathetic, that the audience cheered for Raab and actually even booed Hans Martin a couple of times. This episode was so epic, I think I have seen it like 3 or 4 times. Tv gold. Edit: The show also lived from the show hosts: Optenhövel (?) and Buschi. They just didn't take any BS from Raab. I really enjoyed that show, but watched without Ad breakes afterwards. Incredible commitment of the normal audience to watch this time sink live on TV.
I would watch the shit out of an american version of this. Imagine a weekly show where contestants have to face-off against Will Arnett to see who can dunk a coconut into a nest floating in the middle of a pool the fastest.
And after that it's like he does a crazy good job at understanding German just by context and the similarity to English. I know a little bit of German but he was still understanding it almost as well as me. It's hilarious
@@evorhard Well, German and Dutch are almost the same language. I'll take a conversation with a Dutchman over a conversation with a Bavarian any day of the week.
@@Orillion123456 My college German professor was from Bavaria and warned all of us that if we went to Germany we may find ourselves accidentally angering anyone who wasn't Bavarian.
@@ryanshatkin8906 Nah, if you're a non-native speaker having made an earnest effort learning our language and then doing your best to communicate with us (even if there are bits of dialect in there from your professor), there's no reason anyone would get angry at you. The reason why Bavarians are frustrating to talk to is because they are FROM HERE and yet still near-impossible to comprehend in a way that goes far far beyond what any other local dialects (even austrian, swiss and luxemburgian, which are separated by national borders) do. While the perceived hostility between Bavarains and the rest of Germany is just a meme, the language barrier is actually real and I'm not joking when I say that I can understand dutch, which is supposed to be actually a different language, better than Bavarian, which is supposed to only be a dialect.
@@williamapple7705 Wikipedia says the shortest Schlag Den Star episode was about three and a half hours, and the longest episode went for just under 7 hours.
@@saberaxe its just adding the components that make up the actual thing :D very descriptive instead of just making up a new string of letters for something that can be perfectly described by what you see.
A Bit of context what this Game-Show is. There is this german celebrity called Stephan Raab. He hosted a Late night comedy-show called TV-Total which was so damn popular that the channel gave him more and more freedom to host other events and aired repeats of his late night show every night. He started hosting the TV-Total Wok-WM, where german celebrities would slide down an icy track in a wok, the Stock-car crash-challenge, where celebreties would drive in a circle in a car and the goal would be to destroy the others cars until they couldn't drive anymore, and so on. The most popular Special he did was "Schlag den Raab" where some guy would challenge Raab to 15 different exercises and could win at least 500,000€. If Raab won the amount on the line at the next "Schlag den Raab" would increase by 500,000€ and so on. Once he announced his retirement, the channel started to promote "Schlag den Star" which had the same formula as "Schlag den Raab" but was lower budget (only 50,000€) and less popular.
And the game adaptation is as representative of the show as the family feud or the who wants to be a millionaire games of the actual shows. (at least that's what I heard, I don't watch TV)
I just checked the Wikipedia of the show and I saw that the show also had musical guests. Many of them German acts, but they also brought people like Eminem, Justin Bieber and the Blue Man Group. Was it really that big of a deal in Germany?
@@brokengirrafe Stefan Raab WAS the entertainment industry in germany in the 2000s. It wasn't a problem for him to get huge international acts sometimes.

I love how presumably this gameshow, within the game, has such a large studio and production value visually. And cornhole is just a red piece of plywood on the floor and some bean bags.
I genuinely would never expect cornhole (and actually named cornhole) on a game show, let alone one originating from a country halfway across the world. Cornhole is the game drunk dads and children play at a bbq, lol.

There's an actual game show on TV that this is based on. Before it was called Schlag den Star (Beat the Celebrity) it was Schlag den Raab (Beat the Raab), where contestants would compete against german entertainer Stefan Raab.

You´ve got to watch the original Series "Schlag den Raab" espacially the episode with the candidate Hans-Martin^^ The whole appeal of this show is the banter for me, which does not well translate to a game.
Never had so much fun seeing this game. As a german I can say it Was so much better than Wachting it on Pro 7 at 20:15 (live Television). Thank you for playing.

Although I saw this masterpiece live, I will pog in the YT-Comments as well to please the algorithm.
Ich bin gerade so pogged aus meiner gourd heraus, it's unbelievable. This content is injecting liquid joy and happiness straight into my cerebral cortex. Thanks for the company NL.
Ive watched like 1000 Isaac Videos but as a German I have to say DAS VIDEO WAS PERFEKT. Much love
100 minutes of maximum poggy content, have one for the algorithm!
I just finished my "Monday" back from vacation, hit the ganja, started watching this and it's the funniest thing I've ever seen. What a great return to form circa 2021.
German here.. been watching NL for 6 years... This was the most I ever laughed at a UA-cam video... Thanks for that incredible amount of pog content.
this is insanely good stuff, NL. only you could play a game in a language you don't speak or read and still do this well
You´ve got to watch the original Series "Schlag den Raab" espacially the episode with the candidate Hans-Martin^^
The whole appeal of this show is the banter for me, which does not well translate to a game.
Never had so much fun seeing this game. As a german I can say it Was so much better than Wachting it on Pro 7 at 20:15 (live Television). Thank you for playing.
0:21 I'm sorry, you'll do what?
Nl's ability to play triva in a different language is akin to Homer Simpson being able to speak in any language as long as it's related to food.
51:20
Honestly one of the hardest intellectual flexes I’ve ever seen
This was far more entertaining than I thought it would be.
Wow, egg is actually really good at figuring out german from context and similarities to languages he knows.
Most native english speakers don't even make any effort, but this is pretty good.
The game is still extremely accursed, tho.
3 minutes in, as a German, im laughing off my buttocks and POGGING out of my gourd
It seems every one of your german viewers has to write a comment here. That's also the only reason I'm typing right now. Los geht's nördlicher Löwe!
