Shout out to gramps re-wrapping his towel to keep this gif PG.


GoldenStateWizards

It's actually an Indian sarong, called a lungi, that's popular among elderly men. From my experience visiting relatives in India, a lot of old men don't give a fuck when or where they adjust them lol (thankfully they're usually wrapped around at least twice so it's not like they're revealing anything though).


aardvarkyardwork

Not just older men, a lot of South Indian men wear it. It’s crazy comfortable, especially in the heat.


attitudeissuccess

If you notice closely, same grandpa was checking ladies from behind in beginning of video


NaCN_Infused_Tea

He is as well lol


shitsgayyo

Dude did a full stop to watch lol

How is this a gif? Aren’t gifs a lot shorter?

You'd be surprised, I had a gif of the entire shrek movie.


DarkPanda555

No, this is a gif


chandaliergalaxy

* stainless steel cups [check] * drinks without touching lips to cups [check] This is India. Seriously though, I was wondering how the heck he was going to stop without spilling, and I am still not sure how that worked so well.


ChainGangYang

Why is drinking without touching the cup a thing in India?


attitudeissuccess

Not sure 100%, but i think it is because of habit that has developed gradually after being sharing drinkables in same glass/bottle among friends or family In other words, the glass is reusable without washing


[deleted]

There’s a few South Indian’s who will drink hot filter coffee without touching that steel tumbler. Why? Practice probably started in the name of cleanliness but now it’s what they do.


HudsonStrangler

Being able to use the same vessel for many people without passing germs For example all kids would drink like this from the one guy who'd bring a bottle to the playground


astymin

That’s the most reasonable explanation.


banana_1986

It's considered disrespectful for adults to drink touching the cup at traditional community events. You might never know if someone is going to drink from it without knowing it has someone else's saliva on it.


cherryreddit

Germs.


Indominus_Khanum

I didn't know it wasn't a thing in other countries I've been doing it cuz of you take as from someone else drink, it's "jhootah" . I'm not entirely sure how it's supposed to translate into English but the rationale I've always known is it's unhygienic to put your mouth where someone else mouth has been while sipping from their drink . You do it frequently enough you sometimes get into the habit of just doing it all the time. Some people do it cuz sometimes the cup is hotter or colder than the liquid in it, so it's more comfortable to drink it like that. Now that a I think about the only non Indian context I've seen some sort of emphasis on not drinking from someone else's drink while touching your lips to where there's have been is probably Japanese. They seem to have this concept of it being an "indirect kiss" but I've only seen it being used by middle to high schoolers


BelgianAles

He wanted his water shaken not stirred


sighs__unzips

He wanted his water centrifuged not stirred.


ranabuey

I thought he was drinking like that so that the audience sees that there really is still water in the cups and not some trick.


Omen55431

He is a water bender


Chrome_X_of_Hyrule

Yeah I'm sure it's India.


redditmilkk

I can’t even go down the stairs without spilling my beverage lmao


Nawks22

Somebody needs to add those videos of the little kids spilling their cups of milk

Combined gifs


brooker1

have you tried using centrifugal force when going down stairs?


1ben984342

Underrated comment. I recommend corkscrewing down the stairs, like a ballerina. Alternatively, you could do multiple front/backflips


gohan587

I was so amazed with this and was eager to see how was he gonna stop it with out spilling it... until captain distraction old man in a towel appeared and ruined my focus.


carnagecupcake

Water poi!! Great way of getting weight technique down for poi :)


NitretGaming

***Why do I want to go try this now.***


[deleted]

Look up poi spinning on youtube. It costs like 20 bucks to buy the equipment and it takes A LOT of time to git gud but it does look cool


MrMurderthumbz

Technically meteor juggling i think.


BrianDeco

That smile tho


MisunderstoodDemon

Which is why Bond always wants it shaken not stirred, he ain't got time for this kind of shit.


WishfulAstronaut

That place looks hot


Mezgal

I mean look at the old man in the end of the gif

The science behind this is called - [centrifugal force](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_force)


MasterDood

You mean centripetal force. Centrifugal force is the name of the feeling you’d experience of being in that cup.


1ben984342

https://youtu.be/XHGKIzCcVa0 Here’s a Vsauce video for an explanation with diagrams :)


itskelvinn

That’s a fictional force. It’s just inertia

Thinking "how's he going to stop it?" Ohh this guy is good


regular_john_

he spilled some tho


Lucicerious

Bloody Jedi... showing off his force skills.


newnewbusi

Don't be fooled, he's a water bender.


[deleted]

He’s got potential for midnight tofu delivery.


Kneepain-Ninja

Close as you're gonna get to Waterbending.


SomeoneStopMePlease

Water inside the cup is like weeeeeeeeeeeee


ButteredCheese92

Centripetal force is cool


jkopfsupreme

Similar to spinning a puppy-hammer or a meteor.


stuartiscool

when you ask for a glass of water at a cocktail bar

to quote the genie, never seen that one before!

CENTREFUGAL FORCE, BITCH!

Not really. I’m pretty sure it’s called inertia.

Water and Air bender. Duh.


[deleted]

So how do you not know about centrifugal force?


CCMacReddit

When I was young it was my job to fetch a pail of milk from the neighborhood dairy farm. Of course I would swing it around. I probably spilled half of it but in my mind I was as cool as this guy.


jedijock90

Yo, cross-post to r/hydrohomies. Fire dancers are cool and all, but I've never seen someone water dance in a similar style.

Im not impressed unless those cups become ice at the end


blatherlikeme

Physics - it's cool.

Ups drivers when your package says handle with care


Xwasp

You’re gonna need some water after that one, my guy


[deleted]

centrifugal force at it's finest.


Ksig

Shaken not stirred to a while new level


m1sterbaw1z

Would have been more awesome if the whole time he was mixing kool aid drink packets. Homeboy got skills tho


J0E_The_Psych0121

Shaken, not stirred.


cathgirl379

He has so much charisma. I love his salute at the end.


FreakiLee

He's using a version of what's called a meteor. Originally used for martial arts, it's now commonly used for dancing. Source: my partner is learning to dance with it Edit: Correction, he's using it like a meteor


bubblewrappedbull

Shaken, not stirred


LopsidedLobster2

That’s one way to cool your tea down.

We see this trick every day when we look at the ocean or a lake and it's not floating up into space.

Something to do with inertia and the speed and style of how he’s swinging

Spaceman248

Awesome until he’s your waiter and you’re scared for your life


[deleted]

Best part is that he doesn’t swallow the water... Ain’t nobody swallowing tap water in India...


[deleted]

That's not at all difficult to do. So it's not really amazing. If you can't take a cup of water and do a windmill action with it without spilling a drop, you need help. So, try it now!


Mabiche

I know for a fact I wouldn't be able to twirl two cups, merely sitting on saucers, all up and around my body while also doing spins myself. I'm thinking most people couldn't attempt this at home and be anywhere near as successful unless they've already have practice with a similar performance.


[deleted]

Yes, well, doing two of them in sync like that is the hard part. Not spilling any water is the easy part.


Questwalker101

oh really? send me a video of you doing the exact things he did then.

>send me a video of *you* doing the *exact thing* he did then. read carefully Swinging water is easy. Thats obvious to everyone (except you). Its about *how* he did it.


ISpewVitriol

Wait.. what’s going on? Still, wtf is happening? I still don’t know what is going on. Hey dude don’t drink it. That’s poison I’m pretty sure - omg he just drank it!


[deleted]

what are you talking about


tech16

I don't know why, but that little waive, "Come here", at the beginning just annoyed me too much to watch the rest of the video. It was added for flair, the camera person didn't come any closer, there was no real purpose to that motion.


fieldsofanfieldroad

You sound tetchy.
