- Reaction To Johan Lindström - Ambasadören (Robert Gustafsson) Swedish Comedy
This is my reaction to Johan Lindström - Ambasadören (Robert Gustafsson)
In this video I react to more Swedish comedy from Swedish comedian Robert Gustafsson and his character Johan Lindström
#sweden #comedy #reaction
Original Video - • Johan Lindström - Amba...
1:06 the king of Sweden (Karl XVI Gustaf) is sitting in the audience
I love this act. If you look at the smiling man 1 min 10 sec in the video it´s the King of Sweden. He´s got a good sence of humour and knows fur sure that Robert Gustavsson is a really funny caracter. I also saw the Finnish president, Swedish prime minister and many other really prominent persons. It´s also funny that it seems that many in the audience doesn´t realise that this is a joke.
Robert Gustafsson is our national treasure.
A lot of the comedy here is language related as the character is not very good at english, and often mixes swedish/english words with diffrerent meanings. If you know swedish you can pick up on what he wants to say in english, but he often ends up totally buchering it. Might be hard to pick up on if you do not know swedish.
Yes, it is more fun for us.
I was just going to write the same thing. A lot of the punchlines here really requires knowledge in both languages. Otherwise I believe the script and jokes might just come across as a bit ”strange”.
Oh well. Have a nice day! :)
We called it swenglis where im from 😆
Definitely.
I reckon the awkwardness is funny enough for a non Swedish speaker.
the play with "swenglish" and direct translation is brilliant
Carl XVI Gustaf King of Sweden, Paavo Lipponen old prime minister of Finland, Martti Ahtisaari old Finnish president and so on. He is performing basically to everybody who is important in the nordic region… Funny part is that during that time Nokia and Ericsson were battling, which one is the no 1 mobilephone manufacturer in the world… Funny guy :)
1:08. The man on the right is the Swedish king Carl XVI Gustaf.
1:44. The man on the left with a red tie is Göran Persson. He was the swedish prime minister from 1996 to 2006.
He's been regarded as the funniest comedian in Sweden for many years. I love him. It's sad how much comedy around the world can't be enjoyed because of the language barrier. And here he's doing some word play with Swedish words that sound like English words with a different meaning.
1:08 Sweden's king right there. Robert is like the modern day jester to the king. The one famous one in Swedish he did for the king is the best of this type.
Han är dock grymt överskattad. Barnslig humor.
@@RichardVemvillveta Haha nae.
@@RichardVemvillvetaHan har dock gjort allt, från det smalaste och mörka till den folkligaste av humorform.
@@naikfbk Och varit konstant urtråkig och överskattad.
@@RichardVemvillveta Jag håller inte med, och någonstans där kanske debatten slutar. Alla de rolltolkningarna han gjort, Torsk på Tallinn-rollerna, teaterrollerna, Christer i Fyra nyanser av brunt, som Allan i Hundraåringen och Peter i Det som göms i snö med mera, allt det är i toppklass enligt mig. Självklart är ju humor subjektivt och därför blir ofta diskussionen svår. Ofta får jag känslan av att anledningen till att man anser att allt någon gjort, hur mycket det än är, är dåligt är att man sett för mycket av personen och att man pga detta menar att allting är urtråkigt. Jag har svårt att se att man tycker allt Robert gjort är dåligt med tanke på allt det han har gjort som är så otroligt brett.
This was a big economic forum with the focus of the nordic countries. Many diplomats and politicians from Europe and the US was in the audience.
It is full of Swedish words that does not work well when used directly in English. A few examples are "chef" (boss or manager), "prick" (dot, when referring to Swedish character Ö/ö), "fock" (make unemployed), "blåsningen" (scam, but literally meaning "the blow"), "dessa härliga bollar" (these wonderfull balls, but "härliga" sounds like "hairy"), "the deep throat" (refers to "vrångstrupen" which means "the wrong throat", which can make you choke). The clip would need quite a few of these explanations to make sense for a non-Swede. At the end, by the flag, his is singing a very direct and poor translation of the Swedish national anthem.
Robert Gustafsson is the GOAT of swedish comedy, he's the swedish version of america's Jim Carey
Him & Johan Glans are our best comedians but Robert is the OG and most definatly the most skilled comedian & actor we have had if you dont count the Skarsgård & Hollywood Schooled actors!
Really tho i actually dont think that any man could do the things Robert do with a straight face!
The proffesionalism he has with all of his charachters and personalities is astonishing!!
1:07 the man in frame is our king. Love from Sweden !
One of his best acts ever was speaking at the Kings 60:th birthday (?) He performed a speech in Gibberish to Hans Majonnäs Honungen (his mayonnaise the honey, each word just slightly one phoneme away from His Majesty the King) XIV seemed to love it. Best king yet ❤
Good on you mate. But don't worry about explaining jokes, takes away the magic. Also, this youtuber only posts stuff for Swedes, no one else is watching.
@@oakleaftWhat are you talking about dude 😅
The comment with the translation was obviously to mern. And its not an explanation of the joke, its not that kind of joke. But one have to understand the language or have a translation to these kind of jokes when the joke litterly is about mixing and fumbeling with words 🙂
I thought it was a great comment! It reminded me to put "that skit on the kings 60's birthday" to my list 😁 haven't seen it in a while ✌🏼
50th birthday
Is he..? 😂
The "sneeze" is a trope of Gustavsson's characters, slapstick.
Gustafsson is by far, miles and miles our best comedian in sweden. We don't really have much of a respectable stand up scene and thus he reigns supreme.
The first part is before the "Nordic council of ministers". In Swedish, the council is called "rådet" which in some other context could be translated as "the advice". The Swedish king is seen at about 1:08 into your clip.
Gustafsson was hired to perform this comedy act at the Nordic Council.
"fack" means to fire or to sack people...
I love him when he plays Tony Richardsson. 😂
Look up Robert Gustafsson when he does Bertil Svensson (the garden show host).
The backstory is based on a real person who had a gardening segment in a Sunday TV show on SVT. And in a live segment he managed to cut himself in the thumb. So he was bleeding on live tv. But ever the professional he kept on a good appearance before someone could come to his aid.
Robert hasn done a parody character on Bertil that always ends in severe injury or other shenanigans in the most insane ways imaginable..
My gavorit: "Robert Gustafsson - fråga bertil - Grillning".
The most genial part of this clip is that he use some Swedish words, and he put the sentences together like we do in Sweden or put two Swedish words together in directly translation, and still the audience who don't speak Swedish understand the funny parts and what he means with everything. He make himself and Swedes look stupid but still he got the attention from everybody, that's really hard and really good to do that.
I read this in the voice of Robert Gustafsson.
He is the best comedian in sweden. Probably ever.
Also does great imitations and superb on different swedish dialects...
Hope someone can find more subtitled sketches with him.. because there are hundreds hilarious ones..
❤😂😂😂😂 Robert Gustavsson is simply the best, he is outstanding
He is in Helsingfors 2002 it's 8n front of the Nordic Council and the swedish king ( the one that looks very happy, he loves Robert Gustafsson ) premier minister and some CEOs are there. When he is at Royal Albert Hall 2001, it's a big production with music foremost called Rhapsody In Rock. They tour almost or every year and they always have a comedian in the show. And a famous artist. As a huge Deep Purple fan I can mention that one year was the Hammond keyboardist Jon Lord there and another the bassist Glenn Hughes from DP Mark III.
The Swedish royalty is in the audience.
A great movie with him is "The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared"
original language is Swedish, but I'm pretty sure it exist as dubbed as well. It's a similar vibe as Forrest Gump. it's a whole movie so I don't think you'll react to it here, but it is a good film I recommend.
1:06 this is our KING, so yes, pretty important people! 😁
You should watch clips of YRROL, a swedish classic. A comedy with a collection of some of the best comedians we ever had in Sweden, in my opinion.
Robert Gustavsson is Sweden's own Robin Williams..
Hope not, don't want him to off himself. But otherwise yes he is ❤
Its sooo brilliant he makes people feel sort of uncomfortable rather than laughing their asses off :).
Sill is pickled herring! The fish in the "Surströmming"! Surströmming is fermented fish - that smells like something in between something rotten and a portapotti on a warm day!
THE smell of the fermented fish is truly VILE!
HOWEVER the Swedish Pickled herring IS VERY popular! So popular that it is eaten both at: - Christmas, Midsummer's eve and Easter!
There are quite a few different kinds of pickled herring - I myself only like the Curry or Mustard varieties!
Most people prefer the onion pickled herring.
It always amuses me when Swedes try to get foreigners to taste "inlagd sill" (fermented herring) and proudly presents it like some sort of delicacy.
I guess Robert finds it equally amusing. 😂
He creates his characters,He also makes other characters like real celebrities and pokes fun at them. in this one he plays a character who is an amassador from Sweden
Hahaha Robert is just that, awsome on silly and on que. cheers!
5:33. The woman on the bottom right is the Swedish Princess Madeleine.
Ja det är bra nu, ingen vill veta som inte redan vet. Ingen frågade men fortsätt du, finns några till i publiken.
I just told him i don´t like our so called prominent people of Sweden, i know one person in the dark will not like it but i don´t care what some x-tra net parent thinks, i´m 57 and am not looking to get adopted.
Its the actual nordic ministry council. The actual king of sweden is there, you can see him in the video. He was like a comedic middle act.
Robert Gustavsson is epic! The best swedish comedian ever! :D
My favorite ”Mamma, pappa,barn ” with the two swedish comedians Johan Glans and Josephine Bornebusch but it must be translated. Super hilariuos!
Full version!! 3 minutes
Robert is definitely one of the absolute best and biggest comedians in Swedish history, especially when it comes to slapstick humor and use of different dialects.
Some of these jokes might've gone over people's heads, because he's speaking what we call "swenglish", which is the combination of Swedish and English that happens when someone isn't good at English.
I highly recommend you watch Robert explaining the dialects of Sweden, because that's really brilliant and you'll get a view over how much the language can change depending on where you live.
Also his skits from the show Nile City is awesome, especially Greger the fire captain.
But over all, the best stuff from him is most of the things he did in the 90's and early 2000's.
Distinguished people? The king of Sweden was in the front row!
He is preforming for the Swedish royalty and statesmen.
It is the Swedish elite.
The king is there.
Members of parlament is there.
It is a big audience.
You should check out Lynda woodruff. (Sarah Dawn Finer comedy for Eurovision Song Contest)
05:34 Front row: Princess Birgitta, the Swedish King's older sister. Next to her, Princess Madeleine, youngest daughter of the King. Behind them our former Minister of Culture, and next to her, her husband who was Governor and Party Leader of our versions of the Tory party.
The King of Sweden and many more VIPs were there.
"vrångstrupen" (kinda means "the wrong pipe" (in the throat)
That’s the king giggling in the audience
This is extremly funny.
Not to forget the "vomit cough" trope.
A classic 😅
The guy in the right smiling at 1:08 into the video is the Swedish King.
You didn't notice the Swedish king in the audience 😂
Hehe, some details go unnoticed for a non swede ofc, "chef" for instance means Boss. :) This is how we sound when caught off-guard haha.
The swedish king is there, as well as the at the time prime minister. So it's probably something Nobel related.
yes Robert has done som fun and crasy stuff throu the years. sketches and movies and some standup and short vidoeclips in media..
Our king at 1:08 1:44 politicians at the time
the Swedish king sits in the audience
The performence is before the Nobelfest. Only celebreties in the audience.
Hi I love your Chanel. Actually the Swedish King was in the public. Björn
That is Obama, Märkele, The King… He has that kind of punch here.
That’s not Obama. It was a black man though so….
Do you mean Merkel?
It a hugh amount of ”swenglish”, a langauge hybrid joke. Pricks translated would mean dots, obviously something else in english…basically language is 80 percent here. And the king is watching.
you should watch "Nationalsången" by a comedy short program called Folkets främsta företrädare (the peoples' prime representatives - roughly translated) where they "correct" the Swedish national anthem. It's a great skit plus you get some nice insight with the translation of the original national anthem, It's also a very "Swedish" type of humor.
1:11 The Swedish King Carl XVI Gustaf
Robert Gustafsson offers features from the Nordic Council in the
Albert Hall. He mixes in some Swedish words.
Recorded in 2001 (I think)
There is an icelandic comedian called ari eldjarn I think who also has performed at on of these nordic meetings. Well worth to check out.
The king and Queen was in the audience 🎉🎉
It was live.
Kungen satt bland publiken
There was a swedish show called Rhapsody in rock in Royal Albert hall in 2001 where Robert was a part of the show. Cant figure out why all the important people was there though.
That’s not from Rhapsody in Rock. (I attended Rhapsody in Rock at the Royal Albert Hall in both 01 and 02).
I’m thinking it’s a political/diplomatic thing, with a few royals thrown in.
1:10 is the Swedish king :)
He’s performing in front of the Swedish king, the prime minister and I think politicians from around the world
He's a wonderful comedian and very versatile and talented and you can only laugh and feel good about his silliness
i feel like a lot of the jokes will probably go over your head since they are very clear direct translation or easy mistakes with false friends in english and swedish. your word for chef being the same as our word for boss for example or him calling helsinki helsing-river since its called helsingfors in swedish where fors could be translated into river.
Robert Gustafsson is more or less the most famous and most loved comedian here in Sweden. Most of the people you see you think is high up´s. they are not. most of them in picture are just random people. but Robert Gustafsson was invited to all types of event´s to perform.
Royals, prime ministers, cabinet ministers CEO:s etc etc l would say there are lots of prominent people in the audience :D
Robert Gustafsson is indeed a very good actor and comedian. I can suggest a look at "Nazisterna" (czcams.com/video/PMxH2QAtZCo/video.html) or possibly something from his own collection of subtitled clips (czcams.com/video/XfeXDx8jiLI/video.html)
Skönt veta att våran kära Robert är älskad i andra länder :P
Distinguished audience... well... two kings, a prince, four presidents.. at least four prime ministers....
There is nothing more nerve wracking in this video than seeing Robert waving around with that red can of fermented fish (which of course is a prop) but it still sends chills down my spine.
If you haven´t; check out some surströmming videos here on youtube to understand why (maybee Smelly fish challenge uk).
Very true, you don' mess around with surströmming i.e. fermented herring. A couple of weeks ago there was a short movie clip from Ukraine where some ukrainian soldiers opened a can of this stuff. Hilarious to see their reactions😅. They doomed it at the end to be a useful biological weapon in the fight against Russia. I will try to see if I can find a link to the clip in question.
Look at "Ukrainian soldiers are in the process of opening a Swedish Surströmming"
@@allanasp771 Funny litle "give away" that came with the Archer launchers. two of them almost throw up...
They should have sent something better...
He is the enterteinment
first clip u had the swedish king and the prime minister at the time, and some other big shots
This is probably more fun for a swede, as many things are word play, that get lost if not know what he refers to or make wrong translations. make a O with pricks = dots .." Ö ". Glad you enjoyed it anyway.
1:06 is the Swedish King btw :D
*"En afton på Zekes"* is some of Roberst absolute best work.
its about an hour I believe so you might wanna split it up (or just do the whole thing, I dont think anyone would mind).
Its up on youtube, poster both on Robersts personal channel and on SVT, so Its not piracy or anything, ITs actually freely availible for anyone to watch.
Im ALMOST sure there aare english subtitles.
It not, there aint much point for you to watch it :P
I've seen this several times and totaly wrecks me every time. I agree. Forget that it is Robert.
Have you seen the "tal till kungen" speacj to the king? Dont know if it exists ith english subtitles though
Iris politician and Swedish Royal family, you can even see the Swedish king 01.06. very Fancy Gathering off the Swedish Elite.
He is legendary, the funniest man in Sweden.
I think most of th ejokes do not work unless you know Swedish. The point is that he translates Swedish into English is a very word-by-word literal way, sometimes merely because the words sound similar. If you're really bad at English, this are the kind of silly mistakes you might make.
All of that is lost on someone who doens't know Swedish.
You should watch the movie, 100-åringen som klev ut genom fönstret och försvann! (The 100 year-old who went out the window and disappeared) :D
Robert is the "Swedish" (The king is french and the queen is german) royals favourite court jester.
The queen, half german/half brazilian
@@marcusfridh8489 Anders Lundin berättade för Svenskamerikanerna om Bernadotte (House of the Axe, vars motto är Härska genom Delning och som stöder "mångkultur" och islamiseringen av Sverige, precis som våra folkförrädare) när de var på besök på Åland om varför adeln hade tagit hit Jean Baptist Bernadotte, i förhoppningen att han skulle återta Finland från Ryssland, men istället tog Norge.
Finns att se och höra på Dailymotion" Allt för Sverige 2015 Episode 3"
The king and queen of Sweden are there
It was a total joke, Robert Gustavsson work as a comedian, this is one of hes characters.
This is actually funny - for the Swedish audience, watching it here in this context, it is not really... and yeah this is performed before some important people, at 1:06 the Swedish monarch can be seen.
"Sill" (herring) is a bit smelly if you get it thrown at you, but basically quite nice in the right contest. "Surströmming" is also herring but requires a bit of bravery to try (bravery I, as a Swede, have never been able to muster), because it is frequently ranked as the most foul smelling food on earth (incidentally it is forbidden to bring on aeroplanes, even in the tin).
Correction: "s" and "x" are close to each other on the keyboard; it should be "context".
it is the Swedish king and the prime minister as well as other important politicians and officials
It's the swedish King, parlement people from different countrys and the swedish government.
If you can find some subbed clips from the movie Yrrol, YOU MUST WATCH. It's my favourite comedy of all time, it's insane and has a bunch of sketches, basically
Its jokes about "swedishness", extrapolition.. like if no other know anyting!
Note one of his best. But I love his comedy overall. It´s like Mr.bean. A very aquired taste but once you start to like it you´re hooked.
Ministerråd -> minister + råd -> minister + advice, but ministerråd does actually means Council of Ministers.
its i magick jhonson.
so fanny🤣🤣
you should check out gösta ekman´s sketches as the character "papphammar" for som old school classic swedish slapstick. Its so stupid yet so hilarious. not sure if their are videos with subititles, but most of it is strictly physical comedy without words
As many allready said. There are the King, our old prime minister, princesses and other "importent people".
I think you should look in to Gösta Ekman. Robert is very much inspired of him.
Have you seen the show called Nile City, it’s hilarious 😂
I consider he's language a bit raw but very funny after all. He's Swedens "Ismo".
