About this sound

Ronny Schäfer asks if they have no 8 metre tape measure in this short German TV voice clip, used as a funny reaction to DIY and measuring fails.

This is a very short German voice clip of Ronny Schäfer asking, in a blunt and slightly exasperated tone, whether nobody has a tape measure that is eight metres long. The line is delivered quickly and matter of factly, as if the missing tool is the obvious reason a job cannot be done properly. There is no music or build up, just the frustrated question landing on its own. That directness is what makes it funny, because the complaint sounds completely serious while the situation feels disproportionately urgent to everyone listening.

Pro tip

Cut straight to the line just as a character stares at a too short tape measure or an unfinished measurement, then hold on their reaction for half a second. Do not add music underneath, because Ronny Schäfer's flat, annoyed delivery is the punchline.

How people use it

Drop it over DIY videos where measurements go wrong.
Use it when a tool is missing on site.
Add it to edits of workers measuring long planks.
Play it after someone guesses a length completely wrong.
