How rude you can't just just drive your car into a passing motorbike, where in the
driver's manual does it say that?
Someone show me.
If those clips were a whirlwind of confusion for you not to worry cus here i am to explain
it, Hello guys Welcome back to Most Amazing Top 10, I'm your host Ayman Hasan, you can
also find me on our Hindi channel which is gonna be linked somewhere here if you wanna
go check that out and subscribe as well, don't worry if you cant speak hindi, everything's
dubbed and some videos are in english too!
But enough of that, lets get into it.
This is the Top 10 Differences between India and America.
Coming in at number 10 are our weddings.
Let me just initiate you guys into the club that is Indian weddings.
Oh my god here we go.
So in America, most weddings are yknow the lovely white dresses, the chapels, the reception
where at least 1 or 2 family members are giving embarrassing speeches about you - all that
good classic stuff.
In India, weddings are massive events, im talking at least a week worth of events every
single day, and sometimes that's like 2 events a day so imagine the outfit changes
you need to go through in order to survive that ordeal, and if you're the bride thats
like you quitting your job 3 months in advance just to prep
The girl's family does all the events and the guys does 1.
There's the musical evening, there's the night where the bride gets a whole load of
henna designs all over her arms, there's the actual wedding day itself, there are days
that just dance practices and my favourite is the mehndhi.
Which is kinda like the movie Step Up all the brides cousins and friends prepare a bunch
of dances and they kinda go head to head with the grooms side and whoever wins well that
just means bragging rights for eternity.
At number 9 we have our driving.
In the US, they drive on the right side and the driver is in the left seat.
Fair enough pretty easy to understand.
In India they drive on the left side and the drivers in the right seat.
ITs so funny when you have to switch I was taught the american way and I went back to
pakistan and everything's on the opposite side so here i am trying to signal left and
suddenly the windshield wipers have come on and carnage is ensuing.
But forget sides because none of that actually happens, in India it is literally a free for
all.
And there's like an underlying code of communication when you drive.
You can overtake from which ever side you want, if you dont wanna signal dont, if you
want someone to move outta your way just start tailgating them or flash your lights at them
so they get out of your way.
That clip wasnt an exaggeration.
Although there are driving tests, you can still drive without having a license.
In america they only really stop you for good reason if you're speeding but in India they
stop you so much more cus everyones just having a time.
And in some cases, you can just not stop for the police either.
*wink wink* nudge nudge if you know what im talking about.
Coming in at number 8 we have street food from food trucks.
We all love a bit of the hot dog cart from down the road, or those chocolate and vanilla
twist cones from the ice cream truck.
Food truck food, okay thats a tongue twister, food truck food, anyway food truck food is
definitely a huge part of American culture i'd say and it's the exact same in India.
Most things that you can find in any indian restaurant, unless it's like a watery curry
or something, you can probably find being sold by a street vendor for like a $1.
And most of it is insane and as authentic as it gets, but lets address the elephant
in the room, a lot of street food in India ends up giving you food poisoning or diarrhea.
I know it's sad, but its the truth and it's usually because either some of the ingredients
like the greens haven't been cleaned properly, or they've been cleaned with dirty water.
And ofc you're not gonna be going around checking everyone's health and safety procedures
so it's inevitable that you'll get 'delhi belly' when you visit.
At number 7 we have weekends.
In America, you get the standard saturday and sunday off every week, and dont we all
just love it when friday finally rolls around.
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I3VAUhGOYRE 0:18-0:22) In India though, its not saturday
and sunday for alot of people.
Sunday is always off for everyone, but unless you work a government job or are in the software
industry, then saturday is still a working day.
A typical work week in india is about 60 hours long, monday to saturday, and you usually
don't get paid for overtime.
Excuse me?
Coming in at number 6 is SPORTS.
I had to do this one you can't leave something this big outta the list.
I feel like a lot of sports are really well followed in America; like basketball the NBA
that's huge Baseball is massive, football, hockey, pretty much most things.
In India though, scrap all of that, i have 3 words for you.
Cricket, cricket and cricket.
The hype over Cricket in India is like the hype over basketball and baseball in the US
combined.
The games are so long but no one cares, everyone's there just biting their nails praying to god
this batter is about to get out.
I've never really been into watching any sports, but when cricket is going on and my
team lose i'm just like don't talk to me.
India has one of the best cricket teams in the world so it's really not surprising
that it's the most followed sport over there.
At number 5 are house helpers.
In the US this doesn't really exist, but in India it's a reality in nearly every
home that can afford it.
And NO guys before you attack me, house helpers does not mean servantry or slavery.
Almost all upper and middle class families in India have house helpers, so that's just
people who are employed to come to their house everyday and do the cleaning, cooking, and
daily chores of that household.
It used to be a lot more common for the help to live with the families, but nowadays that's
not as common unless the helper is also a nanny for any young children then they'll
probably be living in the house.
A lot of people with government jobs usually have a section attached to their house for
the help to live in.
Coming in at number 4 we have food.
Cus lets face it, american food and indian food is very different.
I feel like in America, you can deep fry anything and people will enjoy it, I once came upon
a deep fried oreo, and it was good.
I have to admit The ingredients in the food in both countries is so different, in India
food is a lot more aromatic and spicy.
Literally any cinnamon, cumin, coriander, cloves, cardamom, we're just like sprinkle
that yes more of that.
EVERYTHING IS SPICY, even things you think are not meant to be spicy will burn your tongue.
In a good way.
With American food, the best way i can describe it is comfort food, fries, burgers, sandwiches,
chili dogs, corn dogs, things i know i can order anywhere and I know I'll like.
At number 3 we have data plans.
Here me out guys.
I'm sorry but this is PSA formal complaint.
Data plans are just so damn expensive in America, i pay like 90$ a month for like 3GBs, that
is bloody a robbery.
I'm just voluntarily getting robbed at this point.
Honestly why is data so expensive.
Anytime i see someone watching a youtube video on data in public im just like you are wild.
In India, data plans are dirt cheap and i mean dirt cheap.
With networks like Jio, you can get 1GB of 4G data a day and pay like 200 rupees monthly
which is like not even 3 dollars.
*can i just have a moment of silence for my bank account*
Coming in at number 2 is family time.
Yes don't hate on me I'm aware that this is totally a universal thing.
Family time is very important we all know that.
No one wants to go to Aunt Janices' 65th birthday but we all go anyway.
In India, family time is crucial.
And not just immediate family, I'm talking first cousins, second cousins, third cousins
and random men and women that get introduced to us at family events that are automatically
our aunt or uncle when a) we've never seen them before in our lives and b) we're not
even related.
It's not as lax as it is in AMerica, I know a lot of my friends here haven't really
met their second or third cousins much in their lives but in India it is a point to
meet extended family very very often because thats just the culture.
Last but not least at number 1 we have Hollywood vs. Bollywood.
I don't really think Hollywood needs an explanation, I think we all know what that
is or else I hope we do.
Bollywood is like Hollywood on crack, with songs and dance.
Bollywood is absolutely massive, every movie is a musical essentially, they have at least
3 hit songs and dance numbers per movie and sometimes they make a song and dance routine
just for the end credits.
As extra as it is, the stories are actually really really good.I know we only ever see
like the funny clips of exaggerated stunts and super insane close ups like what was that?
But the real quality movies are so good.
But they're also like 3 hours long so they're a proper commitment.
So guys that was all for todays video.
I hope you enjoyed and had a laugh I know I definitely did, no shame I laugh at my own
jokes.
Judge me.
