India India it is huge as a matter of fact it's so big it makes up
Seventeen point five percent of the entire world's population
Hey fact number one and first of all we got to thank a [couple] of youtubers for recommending this video
That's Manish singh and rit Salalah
But you know what there are some
interesting and
Shocking facts about India that you guys need to know about so let's find out what they are and before we get into [it] I
Want to know if you guys could travel anywhere in the world where would you go?
[so] you got number one the population makes up seventeen point five percent of the world's population
But how big is that exactly well the population of India currently sits at [1.2] billion people and guess?
What guys it's steadily rising as a matter of fact by?
2022 they predict that it will definitely destroy China's population and by
2050 there [will] be 1.6 billion people living in India Mukunda La is a mass
pilgrimage of Faith where people gather around a sacred river to bathe in
2013 the [Ku] Mela
Estimated over a hundred and twenty million people and on February tenth of that year 30 million people came to the festival as a matter
Of fact it was so big that you could see it from space at one point
India was an island a hundred million years ago back in the dinosaur days it broke off from the supercontinent
Gondwana Land
and it moved North
Eventually crashing into asia and because of this collision that is why we have the himalayan mountains which are the youngest but also the biggest
Mountains in India there are More road deaths than in any other country
With an approximation of a hundred and fifteen thousand people dying a year from motor vehicle accidents now. Here's a shocking fact
I always thought that hollywood was like the biggest film industry in the entire world, but actually India is they produce over
1,100 films a year and a lot of you guys might think oh, they're all bollywood films
But that's not actually true bollywood only produces about 200 of them in India they have six seasons
Yeah, I know we only have like four you got spring you got summer you got monsoon
You've got autumn and then of [course] you get winter but then there's another one called per vernal all right so for this next one
You know when you guys able to a country and sometimes you like to bring some currency back something
Maybe to put in your scrapbook well believe it or not you can't do that in India because it is actually illegal
to leave the country with any form of Indian currency
Mumbai is one of the most
polluted
Cities on the planet as a matter of fact it's so polluted that if you spend one day there they say it equals a hundred
cigarettes
Oh, how do people live there for more than like three days in certain states in India if you're a police officer
And you grow a moustache you will get a pay increase
I'm just waiting for them to get like Monocles
And maybe some top hats and then they'll be really classy india is also a country that has not
Invaded a country in [ten] thousand years although some scholars say [it] was a hundred thousand years
But this is due to the fact that India was a very rich nation and actually kings were too busy fighting amongst themselves
In India there are more mobile phones than there are toilets in the entire country wow okay?
This is not a shocking fact, but this is really one for me you guys know these things yeah these awesome looking formal jackets
I know, they're so cool right? Well, they're called Schwann [e's] and I want one
That's just the fact right now if you go to India be careful of the children in the school
61% of them have a disease that causes germs on their hands so don't be shaken anybody without sanitizing now
We all love spices [some] people like it
Hot some people like it mild, but a lot of you guys in [first] world nations may think hey
Well, we get our spices from Light places like Mexico
But that is actually not true because 70% of the spices that are sold worldwide
[come] all the way from India now for us here in North [America]
most of us are sitting
Complaining about not enough female leads in Hollywood or Donald trump or we're complaining about first world problems Meanwhile in India they have [a] child
Slavery problem slavery is still thing in India and believe it or not they [think] that there's over 14 million people in
Slavery and most of them are all children and just so you know most of these children are working in things like
Quarries not good in India there's an airline company called go air and speaking of females from the last one this company only hires
Females why because well they say [that] females are lighter and because of that they save up to five hundred
Thousand us dollars a year simply on fuel bills in India are great for the blind. This is because they have Braille on them
But they're not the only country to do it countries like Russia, China, Mexico and Israel also do that as well
India's also claimed that it has the most diverse amount of languages in the country in 1961 a census went around totaling
1652 languages in the country Big ones are well, you guessed it hindi, Bengali
There's also telugu marathi and urgent for me. I've always loved the animals from India they're way better than the ones in North America
I mean elephants are just super cool, but did you know [that] there are over 90 thousand species of animals in India?
350 of them are animals there are
1200 types of Birds and as for plant species while there's over
50,000 of them and last but not least guys India has a great space exploration program
And it's getting better year by year in 2009 India was the first country [to] discover water on the moon
