In this reaction, I’m checking out “7 Crazy Facts About Denmark We Can’t Believe,” and honestly… a lot of this was brand new to me even though I’ve reacted to Denmark videos before. The first thing that had me like “it’s 2024 man, wow” was the name law situation—having to pick from a registry, having six months to name your kid, and even getting fined if you don’t. That just feels super restrictive coming from the U.S., where people will literally name their kid Apple. But I also thought it was kind of funny/cool that names like “Awesome” and “Viking” made it onto the approved list. They also got into Denmark and Sweden basically being the most “peaceful-looking” countries today, but historically going to war constantly, which is a wild contrast. Another thing that stood out was the whole “week numbers” system—like “meet me in week 12”—because my brain wants an actual date. And then there’s the Danish language being scientifically hard (all those vowel sounds), the Danish pastry not really being called a “Danish” there, and the fact that Denmark has way more pigs than people. I wrapped it up asking Danes to fact-check the video and tell me if these claims were accurate.
