    "When even the swedes are laughing at us.." Sorry to burst your bubble America, but we have been laughing at you for several decades.
  • @Oxtocoatl13
    As a Finn I find the whole comparison between forests up here and in Cali completely ridiculous. Finland is in the arctic, it's covered entirely in forest (except in the far north where trees don't grow) and one could basically either ski or swim through that forest all year around. Finland is cold. Finland is wet. That's why Finland isn't on fire.

    Almost three years later and this still makes me laugh out loud. Seth Meyer is one of the most genuinely funny people in the U.S. I think it's because he gets such a kick out of his material and sharing it makes him so happy.
  • @JayMaverick
    As a Finn, I'm just here sitting with my dozen rakes wondering what the joke is.
  • @teapotlizard
    i gotta say finnish social media has never been as entertaining as it was yesterday. someone posted a picture of a tree branch with just one leaf left, saying "just waiting for that last leaf to fall so i can rake it. any minute now" and i just about died laughing.
  • @SatanicBunny666
    As a Finn, I'm announcing my run for presidency the next time around with the slogan: 'Rake Finland Great Again' and will be dispensing hats and custom rakes. It's gonna be 'UGE people.
  • @Asa...S
    3:15 "I haven´t seen him in a while". 3:20 "I see him a month ago".
  • Every Finn I have ever had the joy of knowing has exhibited the most glorious sense of humor. Thank you all in Finland!
  • @mursuli7934
    As a Finn, it is my honor and duty to wake up every morning to rake all the 23 million hectares of forest here to prevent forest fires.
  • @aswaney7449
    LOL that Finnish lady with the vacuum cleaner wins the internet.
  • @munchey99508
    When Seth giggles towards they end (talking about Trump saying he’s seen better mansions then Bin Laden’s) it is the cutest thing! 🤣🤣
  • He must be repeating"I have a friend" to convince himself he has at least one!
  • @user-ns3vs3bp3e
    “One of Trump’s weirdest recurring lies, that he has a friend...” could have stopped it there mate
  • @JoelAlva1000
    He's wrong though, its not just Sweden, Germany and Finland that's laughing, its the whole world xD
  • @drizer4real
    America: Remember that time when raking in Finland was your biggest problem?
  • @contrapasso
    It’s deeply weird coming back to this video and seeing Seth in a suit and hearing the audience.
  • @EL-bo7kj
    This is so much funnier to watch if you're from Finnland, Sweden, France or Germany. Kind regards from Germany!
  • As a German, I would like to confirm that we're indeed still laughing about you.
  • @linshanhsiang
    To be fair, there is a thing called the "forest floor". Seth , being a city boy, maybe hasn't heard of that. But all the rest is a slam dunk. So glad that slab of lard is no longer in the White House embarrassing us.
