2010 World Cup in Berlin

Celebrating the German victory over Australia Berlin style

While I was travelling around Europe I experienced how the Germans celebrated winning during World Cup - not an experience many people back home in England had the joy of doing.

The Videos were taken outside the 1936 Berlin Olympic Stadium on a big screen with thousands of Germany fans watching. I managed to find a small number of Aussies among the jubilant Germans and after miserably failing to convince them I was from the land down under myself, I proceeded to join in with their chants - a particular favourite being: "Aussie Aussie Aussie ...OI OI OI."

The Australian National Anthem:

Crazy Germans making a fair old racket in the Olympic train station before rocking what felt a very unstable train.
