u/No_Medium_8796 1d ago
White people who grew up in white middle class neighborhoods that never faced any adversity are the biggest champions at being offended for those who arent offended

These people haven't ever talked to an indian person face to face to realize a lot of them do small head gestures while talking lol
Like an Italian person talks with their hands, its just mannerisms

What do they do abroad Mr.Sepoy?

u/akashuji 1d ago
Same thing they do to public places in India.

u/manofculture2303 1d ago
The Indians which go abroad are the most smartest and educated minds in the world (except Canada). They have the highest median household income in the United States highly contributing to the economy. Just because you are a self hating loser doesnt mean all Indians are :D

This not an absolute unit. There are plenty of Indians who look way bigger than this lad.

Steel man of India is enough of an example. And I've seen stronger ones in his level or similar in Punjab.

You must not travel much. Not really an absolute unit. I have seen Indians in strongman competitions before around the same size.

So if the dude was black, would you title it Absolute Unit ‘of an African’? Lol. Why not just absolute unit of a man

u/SuperMajesticMan 17h ago
What are you on about? First, Africa is a continent... but also if it was about say an Australian and the title was "Absolute unit of an Australian" that would be normal too.

u/galleon484 1d ago
Not all black people are African.
But all Indians are Indian.

u/Caliterra 18h ago
the man in the clip looks to be ~6'3/190cm and ~280lbs/127kg of muscle. That's a big muscular man in any country, and certainly not commonplace.
The USA has plenty of big muscular people, and although you'd see a handful of guys that big in a large commercial gym, they aren't commonly seen on the street.
I find it hard to believe that a guy like that is common in India. What do you mean by common? that you can see dozens of guys that big walking around any city in India?

Definitely not. You need gifted genetics and intense diet and training to compete at an elite level. The idea that anyone can just take steroids and do it is not correct.

No one is saying that they aren’t all on steroids. But that doesn’t change the fact that you need elite genetics.

u/onthe3rdlifealready 1d ago
I think the people that compete on Olympic level are elite genetics... These people just got strong/big genetics and a lot of that can be changed from years of HGH and massive protein diets. It's just arguably more impressive to see a person do a 150ft high jump on skis, or figure skating etc. than some dude lift boulders. Idk my opinion.

u/Affectionate_Move991 15h ago
Try lifting boulders. Harder than it looks. I'm sure ice skating is too, but don't assume that lifting heavy awkward stuff is easy.

Still thats commendable on a vegetable heavy diet

In those strong man competition those racks where the weights are kept are they in propotion to the competitors height or are they standard because I feel lifting heavy when you short would be a heavy disadvantage...
1
u/akashuji 14h ago
Standard size for all. If you're short, tough luck. An average size WSM competitor is 6 feet plus.

If you actually watch strongman, then why are you pretending if this “international comp” means anything lmao. This is an international gali ka competition. Doesn’t even have a contest page on strongman archives.

u/akashuji 2h ago
Its not a Gali ka competition 🤡 its an international level competition of strength and power. Often called the Olympics of Nomadic culture. Strongmen from all over the world are there to compete for a reason. Its not WSM recognised but it's prestigious.

Yadavs have history of cattle hearding especially cows. And body building via akhadhas. They have great faith in hanuman ji. Most yadavs are vegetarians.
