• The band's Unflinching Walk at the end of the music video for "Du hast".
• Every time Flake or Ollie go Crowd Surfing with the inflatable boat on their shows, mostly during "Seemann".
• Early performances of "Rammstein" itself would see Till wearing a giant flaming jacket. As in, he'd sing the whole song covered in fire.
• Their live shows in general are made of awesome, with pyrotechnics, theatrical outfits and other good stuff. The band members have said one big reason they do this is because they have a huge international fanbase who do not understand their lyrics, so they'll compensate with visuals!
• The video for "Deutschland" is the ultimate middle finger to Misplaced Nationalism.
  • They had the personification of Germany, Germania, played by black German actress Ruby Commey. One can almost see the band members flipping off everyone who objected to this casting.
  • No less than Iron Maiden's Bruce Dickinson declared that the video is "revolutionary", and considered it a major inspiration for their video of "The Writing on the Wall":
  "I said to Rod [Smallwood, Maiden manager], ​"Have you seen the video for Deutschland by Rammstein?" That, to me, is a groundbreaking video. That’s astonishing. Now, I'm not suggesting we do that, because we're not Rammstein. But think of what we could do that would have the equivalent impact for us. So, I wrote storyboard for the vid, tweaked it a little bit, and gave it a happy ending. Well, kind of a happy ending – Adam and Eve start again, but with Eddie going, ​"I'll still get you in the end.""
• In the video for "Links 2-3-4" the end has a badass Ant War The Cavalry moment to get revenge after their ant rave was crashed.
