"Throwing. I put this down to baseball and American football. Both sports reward and require fast accurate throwing. In Europe you get the odd handball player who can launch a projectile accurately with ease. In the US they are everywhere."

 

"Military logistics."

 

"Apparently small talk. Every other country on Reddit seems put out by our ability to talk about nothing to complete strangers."

 

"In all honesty, Hollywood. America is world famous for their movies."

"Americans are a very inventive bunch. So many inventions have come from the US throughout its history and the trend has continued in modern times."

 

"Basketball."

 

"National Parks.

We have set aside the most beautiful places in the country as National Parks and they are run well."

 

"Barbecue."

"I’ve heard Brits say that compared to everyone else we’re insanely good at shuffling cards."

 

"Ice hockey recently. Probably have the best team in the world right now."

 

"THE AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT. It has made life so much nicer for folks who would normally struggle in a non-adapted world. Being in Mexico recently makes you really see how much the USA has taken ADA serious."

 

"Driving. I literally can’t believe how long Americans drive to places like it’s no big deal."

"Rock n’ Roll."

 

"Home improvement.

Not many countries have as strong a culture of repairing and improving their homes themselves. In some countries it’s illegal to even work on your electrical or plumbing without a license. You essentially need to hire a contractor or at a certain point replace the entire home as is the case in many parts of Japan."

 

"Landing on the moon."

#4 nothing against Hollywood but something i resent more and more is that Hollywood is World's apart from normal People.
They cast a 29 year old to Play a 47 year old Single mom with 3 Kids living in an house despite working only minimum wage jobs and no wrinkles or Eye Shadows.
I wish more realistic Casting and Scripts would Take Place.

#14 japanese dont improve their houses. Since japan have enough earth quakes to make california jealous and collapse safety measurements decay with time and laws get stricter on this Problem most houses get demolished before they get 50 years old. The worth is in the Land itself Not the houses.
And , seriously Electric and plumbing Installation without a Clue?
Good luck with insurance

I'm sorry, but Rock and Roll? I think the UK has us beat there. Or at least equal. The Beatles, Rolling Stone, Black Sabbath, Led Zeppelin, The Clash, Sex Pistols, Eric Clapton and the list goes on and on.
Sure, we have Aerosmith (which i dont think holds a candle to most of the British bands mentioned but is probably the US's most successful rock band of all time), Hendrix, the Doors I'd say in a head-to-head competition the Brits take the win.

Haven't any of you heard? American exceptionalism is Racist White Supremacy now. If you're really good at something positive and innovative (especially, if it helps others) you will be vilified to oblivion.
