Funny thing about Simo Hayha is that he was born before the birth of the soviet union and died after the death of soviet union . Dude outlasted the entire soviet union .

As a Filipino from the Philippines I am proud that you made a video about my country Finland. Viva Mexico!! 🇬🇷

As a New Zealander I just want to say FINLAND MENTIONED!!!!!!!!!! 🦅🦅🦅

born to watch gattsu, forced to watch mr beast

I'm from Helsinki. I just went to the grocery store, my beard froze and I haven't seen the sun in 2 months. I'm happy.

I grew up in a logging town in Canada with crazy high Finnish populations. I blame them for my alcoholism, isolationist tendencies, and the overwhelming joy I fell when I'm in a forest and the temperature drops below -20c

Fun fact about "white death": he didnt use scope on his rifle because he was afraid that enemy snipers will see him due to sun shining off of scope so he sniped people from long distances without a scope. Remarkable achievement

as a person not from Finland, i can confirm that Finland is very Finland

WE HEADLINING A EUROPEAN METAL FESTIVAL WITH THIS ONE!

People visit Helsinki and are like "there's nothing to do here". But like, this is what I've done in Helsinki in the last 6-months alone: * Gone throwing axes at a axe/knife throwing range * Gone shooting guns and crossbows * Gone to fancy cocktail bars * Gone on a old war ship from the 1700s and sailed around the Helsinki sea * Gone rock-climbing * Played lazertag * Gone bowling *Gone to boardgame cafes and arcades to play games with friends * Gone to art museums * Gone to a VR-Games lounge * Gone to the movie theaters *Gone on several hikes, as well as mushroom and berry picking in the vast woods * Gone to the beach and swimming in the sea (Hint, best beaches are in East Helsinki further from Center) * Gone to the amusement park *Gone paintballing * Enjoyed autumn days in the park with some beers * Gone to an underground techno rave * Taken an oil painting course * Taken part in a yearly Light inspired Art festival * Regularly go to the gym * Tried boxing * Gone to sauna Helsinki is a decent decent for people with hobbies, who like doing things. You'll find lots of ways to entertain yourself if you look out for the places. But yes, they're not exactly easy always for tourists to find, or randomly walk across. In Helsinki, most fun and "hobby" places tend to be annoyingly hidden, so you have to know where you're going.

For the millionth time I have explained the term "happiness" used in the "happiness index" as someone from Greece moving to Scandinavia, the reality is very simple. Happiness by their definition is closer to carelessness, being able to enjoy basic stuff, and being content with life. It doesn't mean haha all day, nor stupidly being smiley the whole day after someone told you his dog died from extensive diarrhea, nor that you don't have problems in your life and thus coping mechanisms like alcohol, etc. Honestly, once I moved for an internship in Finland I got to experience that "happiness" and honestly it is so refreshing. Being able to hear some bad news and knowing that you can't change the outcome and that most likely the system is there to make the process smooth is just amazing. Being able to go out and just ignore minor inconveniences is amazing. In Greece where everything is held together by the thinnest string a single unlucky event just snowballs into a terrible week and with a bit of bad luck a whole month can be ruined because you were late once in your job, because the public bus just broke. The other thing that I love about them is how much they appreciate peace. Anywhere I've been before an uninterrupted day is taken for granted, in Norway and Finland it was very common to hear from others at the end of the day "How nice the day was smooth and easygoing" and the best part about them is that their whole society is built around making sure your day is smooth and easygoing.

Small note about how the World Happiness Report actually rank/"vote" Finland as the happiest country in the world. The "happiness" level is based on the following things in a country: "real GDP per capita", "social support", "healthy life expectancy," "freedom to make life choices", "generosity" and "perceptions of corruption". Not, you know, self-end rates or alcohol usage or opinions from random Finns etc.

Holy shit Estonia mentioned

Russia: Don't join Nato Finland: Alright, what is your counteroffer? Russia: Or else! Finland: Ah, the old mongol offer. We are going to Nato, cykaaaaa!

The whole "Are you happy" question can basically be summed up as "Are you content", this is where most Finnish people just say yes. It is the same in Denmark as well.

When the trees speak Vietnamese, the rooftops speaks korean and the snow speaks finish, you know you're fucked.

It's honestly really funny to realize that Finland is technically part of Eastern Europe, but is way happier and wealthier than any other Eastern European nation.

A interesting bit of Finnish American history is that a few thousand of men from Minnesota, Wisconsin and the upper peninsula of Michigan volunteered and fought in the Winter War.

I've always considered Finland as the long lost Baltic country considering how much they share with Estonia and the rest of us, especially the alcoholism
