His doctor was like “Hey man, you gotta take your turban off and put on a motorcycle helmet.”
And he was like “Nah, bro, what if I just wore a bigger turban?”
And his doctor was like “Dude, you’d need a turban that’s like 100lbs to offer you the same protection as a good helmet.”
Avtar: “Bet.”
Mildly Interesting
This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.
You're joking, but that's actually the idea behind all of the chainmail and metal woven into the turban. It's basically a traditional military helmet.
I had no idea. That’s pretty rad, to be honest.
They weave chainmail into turbans? TIL
According to the internet the turban fabric is 645 meters long, weighs 100lbs and takes several hours of his day to put on... His neck must look like a question mark lol
If he wears it everyday I imagine he must feel a lot lighter at the end of the day like there's less gravity. Also 100 lb is 45.35924 kg apparently.
So what you're saying is, he's a super saiyan?
He is wearing the correct orange color for Master Roshi's dojo...
weighs 100lbs
How much is that in normal metrics?
about 4 coffee tables.
A large/American sized 10 year old human. I.e. About 45 kilos
A question mark or a redwood stump.
This guy would totally say something like “I would comment upon your mother, but cows are sacred in my country.” And then ride off on his motorcycle before you could respond.
Hahaha Or ignore you and say to your girlfriend “Once you go brown, you never frown” Then kick start his Royal Enfield to give her a moment to decide to hop on while staring at you
Damn dude, save some pussy for the rest of us. Modern day Fonz shit right there.
Fonz ain't got shit on this guy.
Neck be like : ADIOS
And he's balancing on a motorcycle with that thing on too!
World's most cushioned motorcycle helmet.
He be like "mas turban".
Spanish speakers be like:
"Foul Tarnished, in search of the Elden Ring. Emboldened by the flame of ambition. Someone must extinguish thy flame. Let it be Margit the Fell!"
Legit though, look at those arms. Dude is jacked!
for real, those clothes are doing a lot of heavy lifting (🤭) in hiding those shoulders. Homie could probably tag-in for Sisyphus for a lil while
Who rides a motorcycle while wearing a sword. Kinda badass
Avtar Singh Mauni does.
That's why he wears all that other nonsense - so you don't notice the sword until it's too late.
At least he shouldn't have to worry about a helmet.
There was actually a study that showed turbans are surprisingly good at absorbing rotational force and they might've helped inspire stuff like MIPS on modern bicycle helmets.
Well if i was told the correct thing one of the main reasons Shiks wore turbans in the past was to protect their heads when they fell off their horses in battle. So yeah, a helmet.
Also apparently the "bracelets" were to tie their swords to so if they dropped it while on a horse it wouldnt just fall leaving them weapon-less.
Theres more reasons behind the 5 K's (the above being two of the) but i cant really remember them.
Final boss
My dude here must have a swole neck.
Considering what you can see of his arms, he's got a swole everything.
The man's neck has been compressed into his body
*puffs* "Whoa, dude, you know what would be so cool, man?" - Singh Mauni some time ago, allegedly
You don't need drugs when you have religion. With 'Singh' in his name, he's most likely a Sikh and Sikhs are required to wear turbans. This is basically his way of being the Sikhest Sikh that ever put on a turban. It's like a neck-hurting equivalent of the people who wear Jesus-themed T-shirts and get into a car covered in Jesus bumper stickers.
He's definitely Sikh, specifically Nihang, judging by the decorations on his Dumalla. Nihang Sikhs are traditionally warriors, and would wear turbans with chainmail woven inside to act as armor against slashing weapons. They also typically wear blue, and the steel bangles are also emblematic of Sikhs.
And that's a real dagger tucked into his sash. (I learned a bit about fighting Sikhs from reading Neal Stephenson's Termination Shock, and watching a load of YouTube videos.)
The Sikh dagger (kirpan) must be worn and sheathed, but does not have to be sharp. So it is not necessarily a functional dagger.
HE GANGSTA
Miss those Royal Enfields. Such cool motorcycles
Yeah, wear a helmet, guys!
I showed this to my wife and she said ‘well that seems like an easy thing to beat; I could just make a turban that’s longer and bigger than that.’
this Avtar guy sure mastered turban bending
This guy is so badass that everyone else needs to wear a helmet when he passes by
F'realz, my dude?
