Needs some work, I’m sure the ministry will reject the claim for it being to simple and straight forward.

This is a demonstration for the public and TV on Republic Day at the national parade. It’s mostly performative and is meant to be exaggerated and over the top because that’s what’s expected at this parade. Millions of families wake up early morning on Jan 26th every year to watch these performances. They even have performances from school children from different cultures in India, an air show, giant missiles, etc.

That’s exactly what I thought when I saw this. Exhibition performance.
Also doing those movements would be a hell of a workout.

14 daysThis reminds me of the border ceremony between India and Pakistan that is an awesome display of militaries upping each other in silly walks.
Honest question to Indian and Pakistani lemmings:
Does this look cool in its own cultural context?

I’m disappointed it didn’t completely turn into a breakdancing contest halfway through

Much cooler than the US military who just throw their rifles around, and the UK who stamp a lot and have big hats.

13 daysI don’t care much for military parades but I’d rather watch the Indian/Pakistani one than any old regular western style. Both are kinda ridiculous but at least these are funny to watch with their “oh yeah!? well I can kick THIS high!”
They look funny doing that, but I wouldn’t fxxk with a single one of those dudes. Probably have thighs as solid as rock and could kick you straight into a coma.

I was just thinking that this is one of the ways you train for martial arts - it’s all endurance and fast twitch muscles. You extend your leg and it’s a kick. These folks can probably kick an opponent in the head. Repeatedly and quickly.
It’s an absolutely ridiculous core exercise. This is peak conditioning.

Yeah, these are Sikh warriors. Pretty much the most badass fighters in all of history.

Fire at will, step in time!”

Bollywood films are real and everything in India does involve some kind of dance!
Be careful, their Group Dance move buffs the protagonist unit to absurd levels.
