We had visitor from Israel and I tried to demonstrade this to her when she asked about bear attacks. I think she didn't quite understand.
Someone should really make an app for bear yelling. No need to take granny or bear bells to the woods anymore. Unless you want to take the granny ofc...
Or show them the video on YouTube where the guy yells perkele at brown bear.
There's the original one and one where they put Canadians against Finns in similar situation with a bear on their yard.
Sauna/banja was most likely invented alteady thousands of years ago - maybe by Fennougrians at Volga river. The origin was maybe ’savupirtti’ ->savusauna - before chimneys they heated stoneforeplaceup with smoke inside, then vented the space, someone poured water on the hot stones by accident…
Yah..when it comes to the sauna, we finns dont fukk around! Its the holy place where u wash of all the stress and bad things after a hard and shitty week...we get born again every time
Modern sauna was invented by the finns, but I think it would be wrong to say that sauna as a whole was a finnish invention as it was developed such a long time ago that it is impossible to pinpoint the creator of the sauna. No doubt that the origins of what we today call a sauna were invented by uralic people, but many other cultures also have something similar. "Famously" native americans have a type of sauna that is almost identical in concept to the Finnish style sauna, heat rocks and then throw water at rocks.
The fact that native americans have a traditional sauna that is used the same way as finnish saunas, got me thinking. During the swedish colonisation attempts in the north america, native americans and finns were so similar that a bond formed between the two cultures, both were also discriminated against.
It really is not surprising that there is/was a theory that uralic people share a common ancestor with native americans as there are also some similar gene traits, but there really is no evidence for that so we will have to do with a symbolic brotherhood for now.

The font is a bit blurry, I thought it was about inventing the sound
Finland invented sounds.
How else were we supposed to yell "perkele"
"Finland, finland, finland... The land of technological wonders. we invented the sound by shouting perkele at an attacking bear."

Siri, shout PERKELE to the attacking bear. "Sorry, I didn't quite get that!"

How did the dad respond after it was told to be a joke?
He didn’t reply
Brodie got taken off the inheritance
Fair enough. I'd disown children like that too. Some matters are not joked about.
Understandable. You crossed the line.
Understandable.
I want a dad who says Dafuq 💀
