My Dad was a taxi driver and he collected different currencies, anytime he had someone in his cab from another part of the world, he would ask for a dollar from their homeland. I remember after he died I found his old wallet with all the different bills in it. That driver asking you for a dollar reminded me of it.
It is very old market. It's name literally means Thieves market. it was originally called Shor Bazaar, meaning "noisy market", but "shor" became "chor" because of how the British mispronounced the word.
Fun story. Someone once hit my grandfathers car (this was in the early 1990s). He front bumper came off so he decided Chor Bazaar Would be a nice place to fix it. He went and got it fixed but by the time he came home. He realised his back bumper was missing.
I have a better one for you: I've bought a car from Bristol UK, from a very very known big dealer, and before taking the car it is costumed to service it. I noticed that the ornament from the passenger door handle missing and asked for it to be installed. Came the next day to take the car the ornament was installed... from the rear driver side, where in place was masking tape. Very poor electric tape to be more precise... And that is just an example. Also a different transmission belt and a 99% dead battery and a non functional remote key....
And that's a real shame TBH. Where have you been in these 15 years? Gateway of India? Like, your vehicle's never breakdown? You never had to repair a thing only found in these markets? Like wtf m8?
@@hellsing3062 lmao wtf? I've been "cucked" because I don't waste my time wandering markets for parts and would rather pay someone to do it for me? You seem to have a weak grasp of English. How is any of that related to "thinking independently"? Irrelevant insults to make yourself feel better for being broke?
hi, the origin story of chor bazaar is when british ruled this subcontinent,they came at this bazaar and noticed that it's too noisy and loud so they said "bohot shor hai" means its too noisy and it sounded like "bohot chor hai" means there are so many theif , some of the englishmen had to learn hindie(local language) . and because of their accent shor (noise) sounded like chor (theif) .......from then some how the market named after chor bazaar.....amazing video by the way ..... loved it...and pardon my english.....i am a bengali.
Pretty sure hindu/urdu is not even the language spoken locally in Mumbai. Doubt this was the case 200 years ago either. Isn't Marathi the local language?
So many memories of India here. You look tired at the end. The horn honking is just ONE thing that wore me out living there. People making up B.S. directions with no thought of me getting where I wanted to be was another.
It's quite strange to watch an western vloger's intro with and Indian music in the background while all Indian people are putting western songs in their vlog's intro... Great Video.. Hope you enjoy a lot in India.
Yeshua the savior of the world Because we do more physical work rather than on a PC or smartphone.. If you want us to smell good, then we have perfumes for you. Smelling good isn't our first priority.
I feel there should be an objective too. In china we built a cell phone with parts. What shall our objective be in Mumbai? Another important question: What shall our next destination be? This is the start of a beautiful series :D :D :D
I was in Bangalore once and in my free time took strolls through the city armed with GPS. I sometimes had to walk a block in the wrong direction because the traffic was crazy to the extent I didn't dare cross some streets. Imagine walking across a 6 lane LA highway during rush hour. And all the junk and shops everywhere. The sounds and sights in this video reminded me of it. So bustling. I really enjoyed my time there.
Facts are distorted bro...during british colonial era it was called shor bazar ( Shor = noise) since it was a bazar it was noisy. But due to british accent it sounded like chor bazar to indians and eventuly it picked up from that.
hind sight Mumbai is metropolitan city and people here come from every corner of the nation so it is not right to say that Indians dosent know their language. I dont think yoy must be knowing history of your existence.
India has not only that part. India is a very beautiful country from the North to the South and from the East to the West, friendly people. l have been there many many times. Love from Thailand.
IMNOTA would actually pay a good amount of money to see that lol and I am from Mumbai. So sick of people having no driving sense and honking all the time.
This really reminds me of my trip to India, I was in Delhi and Kanpur, and am getting very nostalgic about the friendliness of the people there, as well as the markets! Thanks for this =)
You got stared at waaayyyyy too much lol. Those people are probably thinking, "What the hell is this man doing!?!" Other 50%, "nice camera, your shoe is untied!"

yes, so far i know there no traffic lights on most major roads and the lanes are mostly pack, the horn usually for letting people know you are passing by, or wanted to move or let someone pass.

not sure why nobody commented on this yet, but the actual market to hunt electronic parts & 2nd hand cellphones would be Lamington Road in Mumbai.

Thank fuck for youtubers like you! Giving a real and personal perspective of things in foreign countries instead of the highly edited more scenic travel shots you see on television. It's so cool to see. I can't really afford to travel and there are other places I'd want to visit before India, but I'm so glad I can watch stuff like this as an alternative.
Dude you are awesome. There is so much footage that most people would have just cut. But you show the hard work, you keep the enjoyment the others have and you have the best attitude towards it all. All this commenters missing the entire point of why you kept so many clips in your vlog. The hard work and natural element of one location in India is great.
Ninja Master I really hated how the people in the market were giving him the "what's this white guy doing here" looks....really makes you feel a little weird.
+A kid from Africa because they don't normally see white guys that are tall like that, along with expensive looking camera's. That shit is rare as fuck.
He got some creepy people stares lol, the beauty of countries like Brazil (my country) and USA is that anyone can mix with their population, if you're black, white, asian, mexican, arab, it doesn't matter, you won't get people staring at you like you came from another planet. That being said I know most of those people were just curious but it must be annoying to feel like you're an alien.
If anyone was wondering the one Indian guy who was hammering a square box of sheet metal one side was smaller and the other was larger.what it was is a transition fitting for a residential furnace most likely by the size and what it does is comes off the furnace and connects to the duct work when your changing one that breaks in someone’s house and what he was doing is making a hem flange so you can screw it to the furnace.that was actually a sheet metal fabrication shop and what he does all day is make different duct fittings for heating and air condition not many people know how to fabricate by hand like that anymore cause in America mostly machines do a lot of the work they measure it cut it some bend it so then you only need to grab some no body off the street to hammer it together I learned how to fabricate by hand and I feel like it’s a lost talent or something you just don’t see that anymore with all the machines these days.
Jim T I was saying there’s not many shops that do it all by hand the guy was doing it on the corner of the street all by hand I’m sure when you where doing It since you were a kid you were doing it in a shop also I said that machines do a lot of stuff that the old school people use to do without all the technology we have today and why call it crap no trade is better than another there all skills I understand what your saying about welding that I never mentioned anyways and why say that I said something dumb I never said there was no tradesmen in America.
Jim T I hear you I use hand tools and do it out of a back of a van or truck and have done it right on the job as far a sheet metal shops I’ve seen a lot change over the years like even we use to have a guy that did spot welding for like 16 gauge sheet metal up to 26 gauge and they got a machine to do it and he got replaced by that also we got a cybermation machine that cuts out the fittings or whatever is needed out of the sheet metal that replaced another guy as far as trades growing in America that I agree with you.I’m only talking about HVAC and how fabrication is not the same as it was 20 years ago with advances in technology. I’m not knocking anything your saying just trying to have an intelligent conversation also I do agree that sheet metal fabrication isn’t rocket science and isn’t that hard but to say it’s crap and doesn’t take much skill isn’t true cause I’ve seen people not know what an eighth of an inch is or a sixteenth or not understand how to gauge metal after explaining it to them. I’ve seen guys come out of school and still struggle with certain things in a shop.
ok, now you're somewhere where I HAVE been before. I did business with the indians for nearly 30 years, while I helped de-industrialise the uk and industrialise India. they loved little swiss mechanical machines but I ended up selling early CNC machines from the west, up until they wanted the highest tech stuff we could find for them. Then it all went tits-up. It's a tuff place for westeners to get their hears around. Bless you guys for showing it on your channel.
pol1250 no, just no, while the us power grid isn't the best we don't allow Jerry rigging power to the mains, if you see that its after the inlet to the premises, and even then it is completely out of code

Abhishek Mangotra , oh come on ! We have got a bad reputation over these westerners as SCAMMERS because of those silly scam calls which even we often get. The problem is we know how to deal with them and the Westerners don't.
@@abhishekmangotra7391 India is a Slum. Our Cities are in much worse condition when compared to Cities of Other Developing Nation. Streets are dirty. Roads are narrow. Public Transportation is messy. Safety is an issue. Basically, everything about this Country is wrong.
oh come on !! what do you want to say that you live in a slum?? if not then please correct yourself as india is not a slum!! there are always two faces of every country and slum is a truth but at least we're better than many in every aspects. if you think that whole india is a slum then i'll suggest you to visit jammu where i live.. you'll not find a single slum here. i hope after reading this you might change your thinking.. and thanks for sharing your thoughts ...
For me it was kinda scary. I would be too scared to record a video like that, alone in a foreign country, not knowing how people will react to that. It's admirable that you actually enjoy it and that the people seem to have enjoyed it too! :D
Go around the Andheri street shops, if you want used or new mobile phones. It's a location for getting mobile phones, and digital services for the people who are PC illiterate. Mumbai is too large to explore all on the short trip.
There is a term which goes with Indians... The term is "Jugad", its a Hindi word. It means getting shit done one way or the other. You hobbies too are quite synonymous to the term. You would be overwhelmed by the number of fans you would have. Do it near a famous college or near a Big Mall. I am about 800Kms away from Mumbai but I know people would come.
What a crazy and fun place to visit and reminds me of a market I visited in Taipei. I had the same tall-person issue too and had to watch carefully and duck because I kept bumping my head on various banners, scaffolding and banners.
In prior decades, huge corporations would take dozens of people to plan, script, film, edit and broadcast less interesting travelogues than this. Be sure to hit Like!
first of all It's not Betle Nuts. It's Arica Nut with Betle Leaves. And you think it's a wile habbit? In 90s our parents considered Chewing-gum is a nasty habit. And now most people think smoking is wile which some times ago people used to do every where all the time. RESPECT CULTURES! If you can't stay home!!
The comment section is amazing! Judging whole India 🇮🇳 just by watching a small clip of Mumbai, that's too of a crowded market! Like, really?? 😂😂😂😂 Is this what we expect from the "civilized", "educated", "well mannered", "white skinned" western people? 😂
Welcome to Mumbai Scotty. Great vlog but you have totally missed the electronics scene of Mumbai.The market you visited was Chor Bazar located in the depths of Grant road, you would find nothing strange there on regular weekdays, that place should be visited on Fridays at about 4-5 in the morning, I bet you will find some cool stuff (take care of your belongings though :). If you are still in Mumbai, you should visit "Lamington Road", just take a right as you get out of Grant Road railway station, and go through the bridge. Here you will find endless lanes with endless shops dealing with all types of electronics, a goldmine for electronics enthusiasts. If you are looking for more commercialized electronics market, visit "Manish market" at fort. Enough said, HMU if you need more proper addresses, I would be glad to help.
A lot of people criticizing India , some supporting it.. all aside .. we forgot to notice the carefree rejoice in between which we all need in our lives..
Scotty, found your RUclips channel thru Linus Tech Tips and i'm happy i found it. Love the videos i seen, in special the ones in those china markets. Man, loved those markets, my kind of stuff. I'm loving your videos and the way you show things. Keep posting, that i will keep watching 😁. Keep the nice work. Cheers from Portugal...
If you liked the Thief’s market in India, I’d say the the Pettah Market over here in Sri Lanka is a lot better in terms of tech. I literally saw a guy selling a “iPhone Xs Max” which was an android device which had an Apple sticker on the back. Great place for weird tech.
In India if u need a foreign currency u really need. Passport and for a passport u need a permanent residence so these taxi drivers love to keep foreign currency and ask foreigners for their country's currency because they usually cannot buy one
My Dad was a taxi driver and he collected different currencies, anytime he had someone in his cab from another part of the world, he would ask for a dollar from their homeland.

Your level of optimism and enthusiasm is exhausting me 😂
2:21 *he's indian man*
i thought he was *CANADIAN* man beating scrap in *India* 😤😤
5:58 So THAT'S what Sandra Bullock has been up to...
I watched the video and when I saw this comment I knew exactly what part you were talking about hahahah
😂😂😂😂😂
I paused on her and wanted to say something about Sandra Bullock, but I was afraid youtube idiots would somehow call me a racist... Good stuff.
xD
Michael Fancher my exact thought
You should be with an indian to explore indian market better☺☺
I volunteer as tribute
Random people want a selfie with the white guy.
I am an Indian, but I think he did a better job than i ever will!
Ninja Master I really hated how the people in the market were giving him the "what's this white guy doing here" looks....really makes you feel a little weird.
+A kid from Africa
because they don't normally see white guys that are tall like that, along with expensive looking camera's. That shit is rare as fuck.
oh man those car horns would have drove me crazy after a day
Just love your filming style, very 3rd person and this adds depth, a joy to watch!
I like looking at the people he passed. They all look at him crazy.
He got some creepy people stares lol, the beauty of countries like Brazil (my country) and USA is that anyone can mix with their population, if you're black, white, asian, mexican, arab, it doesn't matter, you won't get people staring at you like you came from another planet. That being said I know most of those people were just curious but it must be annoying to feel like you're an alien.
If anyone was wondering the one Indian guy who was hammering a square box of sheet metal one side was smaller and the other was larger.what it was is a transition fitting for a residential furnace most likely by the size and what it does is comes off the furnace and connects to the duct work when your changing one that breaks in someone’s house and what he was doing is making a hem flange so you can screw it to the furnace.that was actually a sheet metal fabrication shop and what he does all day is make different duct fittings for heating and air condition not many people know how to fabricate by hand like that anymore cause in America mostly machines do a lot of the work they measure it cut it some bend it so then you only need to grab some no body off the street to hammer it together I learned how to fabricate by hand and I feel like it’s a lost talent or something you just don’t see that anymore with all the machines these days.
Jim T I was saying there’s not many shops that do it all by hand the guy was doing it on the corner of the street all by hand I’m sure when you where doing It since you were a kid you were doing it in a shop also I said that machines do a lot of stuff that the old school people use to do without all the technology we have today and why call it crap no trade is better than another there all skills I understand what your saying about welding that I never mentioned anyways and why say that I said something dumb I never said there was no tradesmen in America.
Jim T I hear you I use hand tools and do it out of a back of a van or truck and have done it right on the job as far a sheet metal shops I’ve seen a lot change over the years like even we use to have a guy that did spot welding for like 16 gauge sheet metal up to 26 gauge and they got a machine to do it and he got replaced by that also we got a cybermation machine that cuts out the fittings or whatever is needed out of the sheet metal that replaced another guy as far as trades growing in America that I agree with you.I’m only talking about HVAC and how fabrication is not the same as it was 20 years ago with advances in technology. I’m not knocking anything your saying just trying to have an intelligent conversation also I do agree that sheet metal fabrication isn’t rocket science and isn’t that hard but to say it’s crap and doesn’t take much skill isn’t true cause I’ve seen people not know what an eighth of an inch is or a sixteenth or not understand how to gauge metal after explaining it to them. I’ve seen guys come out of school and still struggle with certain things in a shop.
00 that’s all I was trying to say turned into me writing a book to this guy.
Angelo,You said nothing wrong originally.In fact you were correct.Trades in the U.S. have died off though.Jim just doesn't want to admit it.
ok, now you're somewhere where I HAVE been before. I did business with the indians for nearly 30 years, while I helped de-industrialise the uk and industrialise India. they loved little swiss mechanical machines but I ended up selling early CNC machines from the west, up until they wanted the highest tech stuff we could find for them. Then it all went tits-up. It's a tuff place for westeners to get their hears around. Bless you guys for showing it on your channel.
Reminds me of the markets in The Legend of Zelda...
(Same currency)
The electrician in me is constantly screaming..
why is that..??
Reza O'Line do you see the scetchy power lines around some of those places?
Looks like the US...
pol1250 no, just no, while the us power grid isn't the best we don't allow Jerry rigging power to the mains, if you see that its after the inlet to the premises, and even then it is completely out of code
pol1250
Although the US electrical code is a little looser than Europe and Britain it's no where near what you see in india. To even say that is pure ignorance.
Everyone looking at the camera lol
kid wish most of them never saw one lol
Truuu lol
that's what Indians do, they stare...
One or two following him looked like they wanted to do him harm.
I was visiting malaysia and i saw many Indians staring at me.they like staring.
i don't know why these people are making such negative comments judging india just by a 9 min video!! although he had spent whole of the 9 min in the slums of mumbai!! go and search for the real inda. you"ll respect it more than your own country!!
proud to be an indian!!
Abhishek Mangotra , oh come on ! We have got a bad reputation over these westerners as SCAMMERS because of those silly scam calls which even we often get. The problem is we know how to deal with them and the Westerners don't.
yeah! but i am just criticising those who are saying india is nothing but a huge slum!!
@@abhishekmangotra7391 India is a Slum. Our Cities are in much worse condition when compared to Cities of Other Developing Nation. Streets are dirty. Roads are narrow. Public Transportation is messy. Safety is an issue. Basically, everything about this Country is wrong.
oh come on !! what do you want to say that you live in a slum?? if not then please correct yourself as india is not a slum!! there are always two faces of every country and slum is a truth but at least we're better than many in every aspects. if you think that whole india is a slum then i'll suggest you to visit jammu where i live.. you'll not find a single slum here. i hope after reading this you might change your thinking.. and thanks for sharing your thoughts ...
90% of india is a slum it soo messy
As soon as he says he isn't looking to buy old phones, the shop keeper finally gives him the directions
7:11 Every second shop owner in India says that 😊
I'm sure he's aware.
yeah😂
Did you seriously choose 7:11? Lol😂
With a confidence !
For me it was kinda scary. I would be too scared to record a video like that, alone in a foreign country, not knowing how people will react to that. It's admirable that you actually enjoy it and that the people seem to have enjoyed it too! :D
"The smells are amazing here..."
the sheer amount of looks this man gets just by walking around talking to a camera
Go around the Andheri street shops, if you want used or new mobile phones.
It's a location for getting mobile phones, and digital services for the people who are PC illiterate.
Mumbai is too large to explore all on the short trip.
Whats the point of telling this to him now? He must be chillin' in his own house
Bob from tech support is there also
Dude, I called Dell for tech support and I swear I spoke to Bob there.
good advice for the next trip
Do a meetup in Mumbai please, you have lots of fans here, we will love to meet you, please do one if you are still here...
No shit dude
Hritik Mehta right bro
I hope this comment reaches him 🙏
Don't
There is a term which goes with Indians... The term is "Jugad", its a Hindi word. It means getting shit done one way or the other. You hobbies too are quite synonymous to the term. You would be overwhelmed by the number of fans you would have. Do it near a famous college or near a Big Mall. I am about 800Kms away from Mumbai but I know people would come.
What a crazy and fun place to visit and reminds me of a market I visited in Taipei. I had the same tall-person issue too and had to watch carefully and duck because I kept bumping my head on various banners, scaffolding and banners.
You should visit chor bazaar on Friday early morning around 3-4am. Totally different market. You would get what you are looking for.
your videos bring realism to RUclips
In prior decades, huge corporations would take dozens of people to plan, script, film, edit and broadcast less interesting travelogues than this. Be sure to hit Like!
3:41 you can see the craftsmanship in the wood behind them. Nice work.
My soon to be husband is from India. We are living right now here in HongKong. I hope to visit India soon!
Hustler tried to cell him his phone lol
It's a joke...

Well duh, you expect a merchant to not try to sell it to a wealthy looking foreigner?
The thumbnail picture looks exactly like furiouspete.
sameeee
exactly! he looks so like him
mz204455 I was gonna say that haha
first of all It's not Betle Nuts. It's Arica Nut with Betle Leaves. And you think it's a wile habbit?
In 90s our parents considered Chewing-gum is a nasty habit. And now most people think smoking is wile which some times ago people used to do every where all the time. RESPECT CULTURES! If you can't stay home!!
The comment section is amazing! Judging whole India 🇮🇳 just by watching a small clip of Mumbai, that's too of a crowded market!
Like, really?? 😂😂😂😂
Is this what we expect from the "civilized", "educated", "well mannered", "white skinned" western people?
😂
White skinned ok. Not civilized and half educated.
Avra, you nailed it bro.😂😘
Why do you assume all of the commentators saying shit about India are white and from west? You just joined them...
im looking for wall-e
Van Allen 😂
you r late, it's out of stock
Van Allen it got stolen :/ XD
Welcome to Mumbai Scotty. Great vlog but you have totally missed the electronics scene of Mumbai.The market you visited was Chor Bazar located in the depths of Grant road, you would find nothing strange there on regular weekdays, that place should be visited on Fridays at about 4-5 in the morning, I bet you will find some cool stuff (take care of your belongings though :). If you are still in Mumbai, you should visit "Lamington Road", just take a right as you get out of Grant Road railway station, and go through the bridge. Here you will find endless lanes with endless shops dealing with all types of electronics, a goldmine for electronics enthusiasts. If you are looking for more commercialized electronics market, visit "Manish market" at fort. Enough said, HMU if you need more proper addresses, I would be glad to help.
T-series headquarters

When the taxi driver asked for 1 dollar...he actually just got 65 ruppes...
Ivan The Great but I think that much it cost for that ride.
Well you can't just exchange 1 dollar
Well he started from Fort to chor bazaar. .that's the regular fare
Why do people in India honk their horns so damn much?
It is a communication protocol
helloworld No kidding. Pretty much no one follows driving rules here so honking is the only way to communicate.
To create a symphony ... Beethoven was indian ... Nobody told you that ? Tofl
To navigate through the chaos
Come to jakarta Dude :D
it would be fun and more
A lot of people criticizing India , some supporting it.. all aside .. we forgot to notice the carefree rejoice in between which we all need in our lives..
Working people are a gift.they are animal lovers.they are not producing meet as other barbering .love from srilanka
Scotty, found your RUclips channel thru Linus Tech Tips and i'm happy i found it. Love the videos i seen, in special the ones in those china markets. Man, loved those markets, my kind of stuff.
I'm loving your videos and the way you show things. Keep posting, that i will keep watching 😁. Keep the nice work. Cheers from Portugal...
Love it the way he says, "Yeah-Yeah-Yeah-Yeah"...
I love how every single person stares at him trying to understand why he is talking to a camera XD
I'm from china,and I love India.
*** I wasn't looking at his face but the random people looking at him in the background. ****
This dude is going to remove the notch from the iPhone X
If you liked the Thief’s market in India, I’d say the the Pettah Market over here in Sri Lanka is a lot better in terms of tech. I literally saw a guy selling a “iPhone Xs Max” which was an android device which had an Apple sticker on the back. Great place for weird tech.
After the guy took a selfie, and you transitioned to the “tool zone” as you called it, I thought you were dissing that guy 😂
It was me - a fan who told you on Facebook!
Why did the taxi driver ask for a dollar and not local currency?
Hdsn Wng because he wanted to have a dollar
Hdsn Wng it's a novelty to him
My be he wanted to collect foreign currency
Just to keep it in his wallet
In India if u need a foreign currency u really need. Passport and for a passport u need a permanent residence so these taxi drivers love to keep foreign currency and ask foreigners for their country's currency because they usually cannot buy one
