I didn't fight two World Wars (and one World Cup) to have German blood  :mad:

You're a pureblood Celt then? I didn't realise.

Why isn't garbon called on making a gay reference and I get it all the time?  :mad:

You suck and I do not. Deal.

That's pretty cool.  Is this something only that one can do, or they're just the first one to think up excavator gymnastics?

Dunno. It's an excerpt from a German prime time weekend show (once a month or so), loosely translated as "Let's make a bet". Candidates bet weird things (like climbing that tower with an excavator, or one guy in the 80s recognized cars by the sound their doors made opening/closing, or someone would recognize songs just by watching the equalizer on an old stereo while another could accurately guess the temperature of water by holding his nose into it. The show's been around for 30 or so years, and usually features international stars who have to guess whether somoene succeeds or fails and offer a forfeit. The past few years the show has become increasingly sucky and is going down. It was a big thing in the more limited media landscape of the 80s/90s, but these days I can see cooler things on YouTube.
