It would also be illegal and fined in Denmark.
Without permission you can only use some flags besides the Danish Dannebrog. Those belonging to the Nordic nations and Germany (Recognized minority in Denmark).
So Finnish, Faroese, Greenlandish, Icelandic, Norwegian, Swedish and German flags are okay. Everything else ask first.
To be clear: The show “Extra 3” is known for their political satire, and I have no doubt that the idea was to poke fun at Trump and the Americans. Because that’s what they do all the time (and rightly so).
But that stunt may not have been well thought-through. Oh well, if it was just a fine. At least the crew wasn’t fed to the polar bears…

So “it’s just a prank bro”?
Thinking of several different flags that could be raised in Berlin “satirically”

Punching down “comedy” – travelling to the country being horrified about potential invasion, and planting the flag of an aggressor.
Punching up “comedy” – travelling to the aggressor country, pulling stunts poking fun at their insane rhetoric and actions.
If you’re a professional comedian, be the one punching up, not down. But this guy probably doesn’t have the balls to do the former.

Good. It’s a known fact that Germans can’t joke.

The Canadian show This Hour Has 22 Minutes is a satire show, the did a great segment about ‘Trump’ going to Greenland (played by the hilarious March Critch), it was really well done and didn’t offend anyone. Well… maybe Trump.

Godspeed to Greenland policemen, both of them.
18,36€ well spent.
As a German, I can only say: absolutely justified.
I’ve rarely seen anything more stupid, more inappropriate and more disrespectful (current US administration excluded)
I saw right wingers posting about this like it was a win for them so whatever the fine was should be doubled
