What hap­pens in your brain if you see a ger­man word like…?

Compared to other language, German has very long words. This is because you can simply put two words together to make a new one... without limits! That can makes one crazy and that´s what happens with our bald man, when he reads an extremely long word. The word is endless and he goes deeper and deeper into its world trying to fully grasp it. Different tricks, models, and animation are used to visualize the mental images he is processing.
