Man, from meh to complete "WTF?" in under 60 seconds. That's gotta be a new record for me

Too bad software development is not one of their talents

Wha.....?

did anyone else make it to the bit where they run them over with a van?
 
2011-11-22 12:30:52 PM
They covered almost the entire spectrum of "that doesn't seem like a good idea" material.

O_O
That was farking awesome.

At the end... "Here, take the money, and please don't ever do that again."

There were 2 unsafe things in that vid:

1) breathing in the mercury from breaking 100+ fluorescent bulbs
2) getting behind the wheel of a tata(car), which has the crash test rating of a bmx bike.

awesome vid though!
 
2011-11-22 01:55:16 PM
i liked the part where they were not safe about things.
 
2011-11-22 02:00:33 PM
The most dangerous part of that was the hideous indian music in the background, e gad, like nails on a chalkboard....

That being said, that one woman judge seemed like she was genuinely terrified, which I approve of. :)
 
2011-11-22 02:03:49 PM
THAT WAS FANTASTIC!

cringed the whole wtf*ckin' time!
 
2011-11-22 02:12:11 PM
Can't believe I'm in before the inevitable Sherlock who feels the need to inform us all that there are tricks being employed to make these things look more dangerous than they really are.

If that's you, WE ALREADY KNOW THAT, THANK YOU.
 
2011-11-22 02:17:02 PM
I just liked how two judges were panicked and the other guy looked bored.

And, when they broke that stuff that one time.
 
2011-11-22 02:20:05 PM
I see that Jackass was recently released in India.
 
2011-11-22 02:25:23 PM
Never thought I'd be able to cringe nonstop for 6 straight minutes...
 
2011-11-22 02:28:43 PM
I once trolled an entire Indian call center, and a fortnight later these guys showed up in my suburb to kick my ass.
 
2011-11-22 02:29:19 PM
Okay, Pakistan - what u got
 
2011-11-22 02:36:43 PM
I have to cross state lines to get that kinda stuff done to me.
 
2011-11-22 02:42:48 PM
These guys really suck at killing themselves... but if they keep practicing they'll get it right pretty soon

Also, they went a little lighter on the standard trickery with the car. Usually its a pretty quick rolling over, they did a couple stop and starts with weight on people that can't be comfortable.

Plus they were doing things fast, organizing a bunch of people, etc. You could see at the end while stacking people on spikes they nearly stacked another guy then opted not to, so decisions were being made on the fly. Usually these types of performances go slowly, with tons of absolute perfection when it comes to positioning, at a rate of about one trick every 5 minutes. This was people smashing one another every 15 second, and I give a lot of bonus points for that.

How do you say, "Hey y'all! Hold my beer and watch this," in Punjab?

If the guy at 3:48 turned out to be my biological father, I would only be disappointed that I hadn't found out sooner.
 
2011-11-22 03:29:15 PM
The guy who took the sledge hammer shots to the chest standing up...you know, just for the hell of it. My favorite.
 
2011-11-22 03:36:49 PM
That took guts. (Looked like each guy had a gut.)
 
2011-11-22 04:24:22 PM
I can't be the only one who thought at the end, "Go on! Spear them with that flag!"
 
2011-11-22 04:36:06 PM
The Aristocrats!
 
2011-11-22 04:41:43 PM
So if they make it to the next round, what do they do to top that?
 
2011-11-22 04:42:20 PM
Holy CARP! Years ago I used to work a sideshow that did SOME of these "tricks". ONCE per show! Flaming cudos to a group who could pull ALL that off in what? 6 minutes? Brick breaking and the bed of nails we did VERY carefully! These guys, not so much LoL
 
2011-11-22 05:01:55 PM
Thanks for spraying the audience with mercury vapour!

Other than that the show was awesome! The reaction of the judges was priceless. It was like they were begging "please! Dear god stop! Just stop! We'll give you the money already! For the love of god stop!"
 
2011-11-22 05:07:45 PM
Also... that big bear chested one who got smacked with the flaming bamboo stick. He was hot!
 
2011-11-22 05:18:39 PM
They kept breaking boards and blocks off of that guy who kept turning an raising his arms. he started to really flinch but they did NOT let up.

Scariest moment was at the very end when they were all standing as a group and there was a little kid in front. You KNOW they are training up new recruits as we speak.

Blues_X: They covered almost the entire spectrum of "that doesn't seem like a good idea" material.

That got a honest-to-goodness "LOL"!
 
2011-11-22 05:34:50 PM
I'm going to try this at home!
 
2011-11-22 06:51:35 PM
hogans: I can't be the only one who thought at the end, "Go on! Spear them with that flag!"

I thought that was coming as well. Regardless, that was quite entertaining.

Would love to know what was said at the end.

Anybody want to translate??

If there were more people with talent like that, there would be fewer people with talent like that.

Blues_X: They covered almost the entire spectrum of "that doesn't seem like a good idea" material.

About the only thing they missed was doing anything with firearms. Even a flare gun would cover it.
 
2011-11-22 08:06:02 PM
This is the funnest thing I have seen on fark in a long time.
 
2011-11-22 08:43:14 PM
Nice video. I was wondering what had ever happened to the Tokyo Shock Boys. Didn't know they had turned Indian.
 
2011-11-22 10:31:31 PM
that got out of control real fast.

most of it looked fake.
 
2011-11-22 10:40:19 PM
Yeah but can they lipsink?
 
2011-11-22 10:51:28 PM
Would have been better without the Autotune
 
2011-11-22 11:10:21 PM
My main thought, after watching the entire thing, was "We had not better ever go to war with these guys."
 
2011-11-22 11:38:41 PM
They are Sikhs - traditionally, they are the warriors of north India.. they are so badass that they are probably the only army that ever defeated the Persians (imagine the movie 300)

They are a minority in India though.. like 2% of the population but make over 20% of the Indian army.

One of the Sikh warriors, Baba Deep is Spike TV's #1 Badass Soldier of all times

SHOWHBOATING around, bleeding in public (except UFC, where all those bleeeders are hot ) is hot.

Your phone doesn't have enough processing power to adequately display the awesomeness.
 
2011-11-23 06:50:07 AM
Maybe it's because I smoked a sheet ton of weed, but I can't stop laughing. The face/reaction of the female judge is awesome.
