The Truth About Germany – Garden Gnomes
This weeks episode of “The Truth about Germany” looks at the German invention and one of the most well known German products Garden gnomes.
Garten Gnomes are often found in gardens and used for housing decoration, especially in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
They were originally made from burnt clay but now they are mostly made from plastic.
The first Garden gnomes were introduced at the end of the 19th century in Thüringen.
The traditional dwarf held a lantern, but today’s Gartenzwerge wear cool sunglasses and bathing suites.

I love gomes! Though there’s just something really creepy about them. Maybe that why I love them ^_^
Thanks, we need to increase awareness!!!
Gnomes… o_0 almost as scary as Trolls.
~L~
Complete misuse of the English language…
LOL!
Sorry, I forgot the other guys didn’t take thiers. I really like the garden gnomes. Nothing more sinister than those little creatures. They seem to multiply like rabbits in the burbs.
I’m on it, I’m on it!!! And I did wear that knife the whole time in Afghanistan. The last thing I wanted to do was let it stay clean somewhere dry and safe. General Yarborough wanted them used in country, so I did.
Nice video man. I can’t believe you wouldn’t take your knife to Afganastan but you used it for a prop in your video. Now quit screwing around and finish my tool video.
The story is getting crazier and crazier…
Thanks!!!
great video man!
the laughing gnomes lol… the change is good
“I Am Gnome Men”!!!!hahhaha
Deport all Garden Gnomes out of the U.S.!!!
Great location, great film crew and fantastic cancerous water!!!
I saw the movie “Rendition” recently and decided to tie that in with this…It worked out perfectly…
Good point about not underestimating the Garden Gnomes…
“For granted” would be if they had done something useful and helpful for you. In this case, don’t you mean something like “Don’t underestimate Garden Gnome!!!!”?
P.S. What’s this “+Rendition”? Are you parody two movies now? I definitely understood your message about waterboarding, from your MySpace blog.
Wow, what an awsome episode. Whoever shot that gets an A plus! Gnomes, who would of thought…..
haha, that little visit turned out to be more trouble then it was worth, freaking gnomes dude, dont mess with those little bastards
Never take Garden Gnomes for granted!!!!
HAHAHA Thats some creepy stuff man.
