Comments from Sina Weibo:

西贝佳佳a:

They’re so into their performance, haha.

勤快的扣子:

[晕] I’m a little overwhelmed.

烟消浮云散:

Totally playing with one’s life, India truly is a mysterious country.

x_hunk:

Too crazy~ my heart is racing [抓狂]

温小宅

[生病] Too violent, too bloody.

允-樂:

Humankind can no longer stop A-San [nickname for Indians]!

博洛尼大头兵老苏:

Haha…this is what we used to often do when we were in middle school. Actually, there’s really not much danger/risk. But this much happening at once can indeed be very shocking. Particularly since it is more difficult for women to endure watching. That they received injuries is certain, but they’re mostly superficial injuries. For vigorous young men its really no big deal.

RESCUER拯救者市场总监-田野:

Vomit, I watched half and couldn’t watch any more.

向往自由的海蓝:

So it seems people raised on curry are indeed extraordinary, they sure are spicy!

华商_ss大眼大眼:

Watching this made my head and heart hurt. Even though I know they are only doing this to make a living. So sadenning, so frightening!!

菜中黄瓜:

Brother [referring to self] is completely unable to stay composed, what about you guys… [生病]

木子非画坊:

These Indian crazies, in order to get the prize, they’re even willing to give up their lives! [挖鼻屎]

NIL的白色便签纸:

This is truly truly too inmpressive, Indian people ….. . Other talent shows are nothing next to this one~… The main thing is to take note at the end, that this group of people weren’t faking it at all… [奥特曼][晕][威武][威武][威武]

No-386:

I don’t know what to say. Was that the prize money in the end? Did they really come for the prize money? This money truly cost too much to earn.

A_Vikin:

Hahahahaha!!! These Indians truly leave me with nothing to say, they are truly brave, but I don’t recommend [doing this]! One’s body is one’s own [cherish it].

初级建筑师:

Could it be that they too have learned Qigong? However, these macho men would be great for helping others go demand money from those unscrupulous employers who owe back pay, they’d definitely be able to get the money.

宝贝兔XD:

I feel it is so sad for them… Sad for them if they pass this round, but also sad for them if they don’t.

zf李振芳:

My god, they’ve gone crazy from poverty.

Comments from Youku:

@COOL社会冠军: (responding to above)

So fake.
It’s all copying Chinese street performers and actually its all just using the basic principles of mechanics. It looks really violent on the surface but basically it is all things the human body can endure. They’re just not afraid of pain. When there are two bricks around the human body then yes a car can drive over it. But if there were’t those two brikes, then the human body wouldn’t be able to bear it. That’s why the car in the end didn’t go over, because the bricks had gotten out of position.

米羊抬蚂蚱: (responding to above)

You sound like you really understand/know what you’re talking about.

内衣散人: (responding to above)

I won’t talk about the rest, but if India’s soldiers are all like this and we were to compare to our current situation, I’d really worry if another Sino-Indian War were to happen.

☆紫鹰☆: (responding to above)

Our soldiers can only be even more fierce than theirs, so you above don’t need to worry.

chinagingye:

That female judge is so pretty, I like.

用爱化解

Those flourescent tubes are toxic/poisonous! Just for a performance and to become famous, you’re even willing to give up your lives. The losses outweigh the gains. Look how you’ve scared that beauty [the female Indian judge], sigh…

szm18023789:

Fuck, although its basically all fake.

644906456: (responding to above)

You go try and then you’ll know if its real or fake.

黑绿苏打:

- – Probably learned [how to do all of this] in China.

回避!城管执法:

They bled, their hardness Qigong isn’t good enough.

说三道八:

Bleeding is the mark of a man.

虚怀居士:

This will destroy Indian civilization just as it has Chinese civilization.

帆妞儿: (responding to above)

Friend, don’t compare India today with China. Of the four great ancient civilizations only China still remains today. India as a country has only been independent for how few years, and how many years was it dominated by foreigners? So your comparison is not appropriate.

风饮血: (responding to above)

Can China today still be called an ancient civilization?? You’re so funny.

What do you think?

    SOOOOOOOOFAAAAAAAA!

  • BaoBei

    Crazy video… especially creepy guy bleeding and smiling at end.

      I dunno. I think the bloody “V” sign at the end is what any Indian (or Chinese) hopes to gash in on during one’s first night of matrimonial bliss.

      These opportunites: you have to go out and snatch them.

  • JAYJAY

    I seriously couldn’t finish watching it. Had to stop half way through. Crazy bunch…

  • jughound

    Chinese are so weak.

  • MrT

    Hows 2000 hits on youku viral? never get that, every time its supposed to be viral youku aint showing a lot of hits, maybe just viral in one head.
    Any way if it is viral its probably because they scared these lads will be first across the border into China when it kicks off.

  • Dat Ankle

    I’ve never seen so much testosterone in one sitting.

  • johnny basic

    Does anyone know why the Chinese call Indians ‘A-san’?

    I’ve heard it a couple of times before, and I’ve heard it has something to do with mocking them as servants of British colonists…anyone know?

    • MrT

      Asian Indians as opposed to Red Indians that the Yanks abused?

    • http://www.chinasmack.com Fauna

      That is one explanation. Another explanation is because Shanghainese could not pronounce “Ah! Sir!” correctly.

      • Johnny Basic

        Interesting! Thanks.

        • Mechanized

          in cantonese…. indians are referred to as

          A-Cha!

          • Sunshine

            I’ve always wondered why as well….

          • mimi

            chinese are called fck-ing ch-in-ks by indians

          • Chunghwa

            ^^^^ (@mimi:) what’s with the dashes, how are they supposed to be pronounced? Is it like how African American mothers pronounce Le-ah as “Ledasha”?

    • dim mak

      Negatory, it’s from this one time when an Indian ambassador claimed India was “number 3″ and therefore “not that bad”. Forgot what the debate was, but ever since people have made fun of them and called them A-san (3)

  • Gay Azn Boi

    I’m gay but that female judge is hot haha :p

    • http://candosino.wordpress.com terroir

      If she opens her mouth any wider in surprise then you, me and a tunnelless freight train will all have taken a liking to her.

      • hooots

        Ok, now say AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAh-san!!!

        choo-chooooo! Here comes the airplane!

  • donscarletti

    Notice how the other Indian judges look at those Punjabi performers and are clearly thinking “what the fuck is wrong with these people?”

    Full props to Messrs Singh, for balls and showmanship, I probably wouldn’t get a ticket to see them perform at the local civic theatre though.

  • Steve

    Clearly the Chinese have never seen Japanese death matches before. OLD HAT!

  • 平凡人

    The act gets a little boring after a while as the stunts are quite similar. However, I think the lady Judge is cute and that’s why I finish watching the whole video.

    Russel Peter’s had it right when he said, “Be a MAN!”

    But I guess he was talking about Chinese people.

    Anyway, he’s Indian, so it’s relevant.

  • sunkissedgoddess

    Pure awesome! I heart Indian men.

  • http://candosino.wordpress.com terroir

    If you can’t be a smart man and do good deeds as a hero to your country, then be a stupid man and do crazy stunts to advertise the fact that there are no wars for you to participate in.

    I loved this video; Indian Jackass has much better taste in music than their US counterpart, and they even have a Weeman to boot. Total points for linking craziness with nationalism; the link is always there, but it’s much more appreciated here for the sheer entertainment factor.

    Speaking of which: Chinese Jackass. Daniel Lee tried it with a bunch of pussies in Hong Kong, but what we need are a bunch of rednecks hitting each other with boards and hammers, then picking themselves up and waving minitature flags and denouncing foreigners.

    Chinese internet: please make this happen. Also: bare-chestedness and those awesome studded forearm gauntlets should be standard issue everywhere.

    • hooots

      I’m very well versed in redneck exploits and will gladly join the team. Can we moonlight as a boy band?

      terroir I know you’re in.

      • http://candosino.wordpress.com terroir

        You can count me in insofar as the fact that I enjoy the spectacle of watching others hit themselves with hammers.

        I prefer to show my frenzied nationistic fervor by way of other means, like say taking naps or doing the dishes. All the same, if you have a plan that involves standing around barechested with those studded forearm gauntlets, I can say with complete certainty and confidence that it could only but be a plan of the highest intentions.

  • eattot

    this woman judge is nice, at least she did not cover her mouth with tissue.
    hmm, in china, judges would ask them to stop after 2mins. its good performance, very fast and no repeat part.
    when i was a kid, indian films were still quite popular in china, we all felt those women are so beautiful with shinning huge eyes sing and dance…latter after we dumped black&white tv, we found out its not like that, their face looked too full, skin too dark, a bit oilly,hahaha!

    • Dat Ankle

      Of course they have dark skin, they’re Indian. The majority of them have a darker tint in skin complexion then full on white. Either way, Indian chicks are hot the way they are, probably not in the Chinese beauty standard but decent looking nonetheless~ I never seen Indian with oily skin though, at least not in the sense that I think you’re describing.

      Did you notice how she was the one who couldn’t look away compared to the male judges who did, ha. Her shock expression was adorable though.

      • eattot

        sigh!
        i mean they look oilly because their eyes so big , face so full and round, one thing good is they have big eyes what we east asian dream of, haha!

        • da mao houzi

          I dated a stunning Indian girl when I was in university. she tasted terrible, everywhere, all the curry spices and such.

        • http://candosino.wordpress.com terroir

          “they look oilly because their eyes so big , face so full and round”

          Like an emoticon? Mickey Mouse? Every Japanese anime?
          They wuz all “oilly”?

    • hooots

      Skin too dark… I know that most all asian races don’t like ‘dark’ people, but can you please explain why? There are beautiful people of every color. You’re only missing out.

      • jughound

        I like dark meat.

      • eattot

        ha, its not only about skin color…
        you can find top beauty in any race, just like Halle Berry is really a stunning beauty, but i am talking about the rate, the average level…

    Im surprised at the comments about copying chinese considering Martial Arts started in India!!!! BTW I’m not Chinese or Indian – I’m English!

  • Tehx

    • Cinimod

      Because that pesky network of Sikh terrorists is causing such a worldwide problem.

  • Baroquian

    These skills were needed when opposing the British. I’m honored to know that the food at the Indian buffets frequent are prepared by these paragons of resilience.

    • Rawlie

      Know your history then? The Sikh Empire was subjugated after the second Anglo-Sikh War in 1849 by the British East India Company. After that Sikhs were the mainstay of the British Indian Army and fought for the Empire in both the 1st and 2nd World wars. They lost nearly 100,000 men in those conflicts alone and there was even talk a few years ago of having a UK Sikh regiment.

      The British Empire had many faults but you cannot say that people were not allowed to thrive within its structure.

    • da mao houzi

      there was very little opposing of the british

  • donscarletti

    @da mao houzi:
    Of course there wasn’t, which is not surprising at all when you consider that the British had the loyalty of these glass eating death machines. It worked out well because the Sikhs and British agreed on many issues, like opposing perverted stuff like sati and being tough as nails (before the British became a bunch of sissies and chavs). The British did not treat the Sikhs quite as badly as others were known to, which is important because as Indira Gandhi taught us so well, you can piss off 95% of the Indian population with no consequences in the slightest, but just don’t piss off the Sikhs.

  • GSKang

    These guys are a group of sikh khalsa (pure warriors) who pride themselves on martial training. Apparently only one real master remains and he cant find pupils.
    The only actual social gathering/event is called halla mohalla once a year. There medivial weapons are used by nihangs (the traditional remains of what was a standing army) the british allowed many kingdoms to keep standing armies, so it didnt really die till Indipendance and society changing.

    Nice to see that you dont hate all of us as many belive over here.

    • GSKang

      Info for the curious. Maharaja Ranjit Singh was the only and last true king. The philosophy is akin to that of a warrior monk, Sikh means learning, khalsa means pure, we militarised to fight off invaders from the North west.

      Not all of us are dark have big eyes etc. but most of us are geneticallly large. Most of us are turning away from religion, my brother and I renounced our vows in a manner of speaking a few years ago, both born mid 70′s, but we inherited a mini arsenal, ive had the pins removed from all the guns (anti terror). My father is still kind of huge etc. its a fading culture though. I feel this video is mildly mocking of us by a bunch of kids. They are not hungry, they want to be on TV i think thats worse.
