Way back in the day I did one of my little video analysis posts on the One Direction UStream video which you can find here and I suggested something in that video that seems to have possibly come up again. So just to clarify here is what was said in that video...
UStream October 30th 2012 (X)
Louis: (To Harry) “You went to Turkey before, didn’t ya?”
Harry: “I went to Turkey the week before bootcamp.”
Niall: (Clearly knowing something happened in Turkey that was a big deal) “What happened in Turkey Harry? What happened in Turkey?
Louis: (Also clearly knowing something happened in Turkey that was a big deal) “Ask Harry about Turkey.”
Liam: (Poor Liam) “I don’t know what happened in Turkey.”
Harry: “Turkey was good. I played a lot of volleyball. I met a German family and started learning how to score in German.”
Louis: “He learned how to score a German is what he is saying.”
Just watch it; it’s funny. Niall is cracking up, Louis is just staring at Harry, Harry looks a little embarrassed and is trying not to smile. Even Scott Mills realizes what is up and moves on from the subject.
So, basically something happened there that the others were teasing him about. And if we go by what Louis said then something happened with an actual German. Gotta love Louis.
Fast forward to last night...
Oberhausen Concert March 24th 2018 (X)
Harry: “Basically my German numbers...when I was a child, I think about fifteen years old I went on holiday with my family as fifteen year old people do and I made friends with a German boy and his brother and we played volleyball every day, so I just know the numbers really and I think maybe, “Your serve.”
So, Harry was definitely referring to the same story, right? I mean that much is obvious. But this time he adds, “I made friends with a German boy and his brother.” He didn’t say, “I made friends with two German boys.” He specifically referenced one of them as if they had more importance. And that person was German. And that person was a boy.
So...I feel like we might now know what happened in Turkey. Obviously we don’t know EXACTLY what happened, but something obviously did that was of some sort of significance. Something that he felt the need to share with the other boys at the time. Something that Louis certainly didn’t forget (or Niall for that matter).
