This one from the UK.... Within the Metropolitan Police District, excluding the City of London, it is illegal to walk down the streets whilst carrying a plank of wood as well as poles, ladders and placards. The ban extends to casks, tubs, hoops, wheels, ladders, poles and placards. And if you thought you would get around the rule by rolling your tub along, that's banned too. The law is in place to prevent nuisance and increase ease of passage on public thoroughfares.

There are similar laws in the UK regarding not being drunk in the pub. I used to work in pubs and I had to refuse service to people who were already drunk and offer them soft drinks instead. I also worked at places that would make people leave if they were 'too drunk' irrespective of their behaviour. It''s irresponsible in my opinion since at least there is help available in the pub should someone fall over and there's far less risk of assault whilst in the pub, even drunk people are humans and should be able to wait somewhere safe while they get a taxi home.

[@julianaylor4351]

You can be refused a taxi, by the driver if you are a violent, abusive or otherwise out of control drunk too.

[@theduder2617]

Here in the US, if you want to be assaulted, your best chances are to go to a bar (pub), get hammered, then run off at the mouth to anyone. I have watched bartenders join in on the fight. All while one person literally fell over and received no help from anyone until police arrived to arrest and take him to jail. We are what anyone would call, "ass-backwards" over here. And I won't bother getting into what a "roundabout" does to us. I'll just say that there are people still stuck in one from 3 years ago.

Can you imagine the kid wondering why mom and dad live apart and the rapist says “son I have something to tell you. You were conceived when I raped your mother. That’s a real good father/son relationship starter. So after the kid has one all these workshops about how to treat a woman on a date he goes to see dad and finds out dear old dad is not only a criminal, but one of the worst kind.

#22 is a law in South Australia too, but more specific, a pub or bar is not permitted to serve alcohol to a visibly inebriated person. It makes sense to a degree, as it is a way to cut down on alcohol-induced violence. #19 is a bad law for one reason, if you've had a serious falling out with your parents, why would you want to visit them? That would be far too stressful for both parties involved, but given China, I doubt there's exceptions for such circumstances. #11 is most likely an attempt to cut on traffic pollution, that's what I can at least glean from the law anyway. It does seem very hard to enforce, borderline impossible. As for some other dumb laws in Australia; 1. It is illegal to dress up as Batman and Robin. I have no idea how this is enforced or even why it's a law in the first place. 2. If you put up a poster for a missing item, you are not allowed to put a "No Questions Asked" clause on it. 3.

Just FYI, the law in the Philippines about what days you can drive on the highways is meant to reduce traffic congestion. If you have ever been there, you would understand why.

[@list25]

No. I am only fluent in English.

[@jcfreak4ever1]

Excellent pronunciation, though! Awesome!

[@athenathegreatandpowerful6365]

It's called "correctly pronouncing words", something vaguely unknown to your average American.

[@Nola5427]

athenathegreatandpowerful6365 Most Americans mispronounce alot of words incorrectly.

I'm in trouble if I go to Oklahoma. I always carry a permanent marker. Was a cook. Hard to break habits 😂 8:52 8:53

[@Sneakers-s5r]

Not sure when I subscribed to you again… Probably when you were airing again, maybe a month later when I found your new show. Glad to be back. Have been telling my friends about you. They found it very hilarious finding your shows about useless information. I pointed you out and they have been watching your show. I have then, since shared your new channel. I’m sure they have resubscribed. You have “learned” me so very much! TY Mike… I aways “like” and comment even if it is a simple "Thumbs Up"👍

In Michigan, it’s illegal to buy, sell or trade any motor vehicle on Sunday due to religious reasons. According to Michigan laws, Sundays is a better day to spend time with family, friends or to go to church

[@julianaylor4351]

The UK repealed all its Sunday trading laws in the late 1990s, but large stores and supermarkets are only allowed to be open for seven hours, so that's often 10am to 5 pm.

[@lynstyles6628]

Tell that to the moose lol

In North Korea, men can only have one of 10 hairstyles, while women can only have one of 14. And it has to match the one you have in your ID. So if you want to change your hairstyle, you have to get a new ID.

[@janeteggleston6978]

In Michigan it's illegal for married women to cut their hair without their husband's permission a very stupid rule indeed

[@jantschierschky3461]

Great law, stops hairdressers to talk women into stupid haircuts

[@hackman669]

Amish at it again. 😅

[@opcpixie]

Love your jacket, Mike. Looking super fly my guy. 👌🏽

[@list25]

Appreciate it!!

[@KellBelle65]

There's a law in Mobile, Alabama that prohibits high heels within the city limits. It's a protection ordinate to prevent the city from being sued if someone should injure themselves while walking in ridiculous high stilettos on city property. Personally, considering some of the frivolous suits I've seen, I can understand why this law was created. However, there's a law in Florida that prohibits people from tying an alligator to a fire hydrant.

[@bodeanlove8900]

Love your videos dude!!

[@andre3529]

Number 8 isn't entirely true, in Swaziland women are allowed to wear pants with the exception of days when the country's ritual ceremonies take place. One ridiculous law is that witches aren't allowed to fly on broomsticks🤣🤣😂😂absolute madness, I know

[@victoriakraft6055]

Thanks for your video. Very well done 🎈

[@shaneminer4526]

In Nebraska it's illegal to hunt whales. California legally classifies bees as a kind of fish. Columbia, Missouri has an ordnance banning clotheslines. And until 1985 it was illegal to be ugly within the city limits of Joplin, Missouri.

[@LizzyMarieTina]

Yeah, the only whales I know of are the fiberglass ones at the Omaha zoo. Or the ones at the mall lmao

[@kubek]

Speaking of not getting drunk in a bar. It's weird that at some point you can't order any more alcohol in a bar because bartender will tell you that you've had enough, and yet noone will tell you that you had enough of food in a restaurant. You can literally eat yourself to death and they won't mind.

[@weben9001]

Thailand- it is illegal to go commando in public.

[@manueltapia1859]

Mike in my hometown state of Sonora México used to be a law that charged horse ownership but lasted until the 70s, there is one new not absurd but is extremely charge if you don't pick your dog's poop above $200-300 fines!!! Another law from Italy they forbiden in Venice ugly people at the beaches, one from US says that "is illegal to a killer use a bullet proof vest while commits his crime", another from Thailand you are not allowed to put your foot in the image of the prince in the bill Greetings 😊

[@julianaylor4351]

All the parks in the UK, have a rule that you can be fined for not removing your dog's 💩.

[@glennstewart5397]

In a town in Canaada; it illegle to walk your goldfish with out a lease!

So in Japan…how do sumo wrestlers get past the obesity law?

[@stephenlee5929]

Most Sumo Wrestlers retire at 30, they also lose weight on retiring.

[@Jane-nc2fr]

Darn, I was going to do all these things in every country you mentioned. What buzz kills. My friends, the naked hiking aliens, are now going to come in speedos and high heels.

[@DavidAngeleri-n1q]

Outstanding.

[@pamelamays4186]

Having a pet moose is the most Alaskan thing ever.🦌

[@brianarbenz1329]

So what’s the penalty for illegally dying in these towns?

[@protesta99]

Ooh, I actually know the answer to one of your questions! (Kind of). The license plate one: if it’s like in kuala lampur, then it’s to reduce the traffic on the roads. It’s meant to encourage carpooling, and avoiding EVERYONE using their cars on the highways on the same day. :)

[@aviyahchaverim9388]

How does one enforce the " You can't die in the your city" law?? Does the corpse receive a fine or ticket? There should be a law against receiving payment for fines from a corpse. I can't see how that'd be a problem.

[@TEEETHREEEMEEE]

It is illegal to frown at a cow in Ohio.

[@Polyphemus47]

That should be universal!

[@arnellamahoney317]

It’s perfectly legal for women to walk around topless in New York City or anywhere in New York State under Penal Code 245.01. I actually thought that would have been on your list.

[@jcfreak4ever1]

What the _heck?!_ It outta be common decency in America to remain covered up in _all_ public locations, no indecent exposure _allowed..._ 😖

[@athenathegreatandpowerful6365]

​@@jcfreak4ever1NY has gone over the edge anyway. Free narcan, free as in in a vending machine along with a bunch of other drug paraphernalia. Nice. The topless thing has been around for decades, never say anyone doing it unless they were sunbathing in Central Park.

[@jgrenwod]

Nothing ridiculous about that.

[@darcybrummett7004]

19:39 How would “suspiscous” be defined?

[@joeydepalmer4457]

well that stinks! no freaky Canadian laws!
