As a European, I think the most insane US laws are: no alcohol under 21, checking the ID of a middle aged man who buys alcohol, making prostitution illegal unless you film it and share it on internet.
The strangest one is the law that prohibits a child from playing pinball in South Carolina. They’re actually games of skill, not chance. I wonder who in South Carolina thought about such a law.
The law exists probably because when most states made it Illegal because there where no Flippers on them yet in the early 1900s and were much more akin to actual gambling. Around the 70’s a lot of places made it legal because it was clearly a game of skill due to underground improvements to the mechanics of the machines while they were Illegal. It’s odd that it’s still Illegal there but it was far spread in the early to mid 20th century with Prohibition style raids being commonplace it machines were discovered being used or stored.
@@Rwtheking flippers were introduced in 1947, with Gottleib’s Humpty Dumpty, which added a skill element. It was thought that pinball was gambling, and so it was banned until 1976, when a man named Roger Sharpe proved that pinball was a game of skill, not chance. The ban was lifted after that. But yes, in some parts of the United States, there are still pinball bans. Here in Hawaii, it was illegal for anyone under the age of 18 to play pinball, which is no longer the case.

Sometimes when I here of weird laws and weird warning labels, I think, somebody, somewhere, did something so dumb, they had to put a warning labels or a law in place. I don't think they just make up the most ridiculous thing a person will do, with specific things, and put it there, just to be on the safe side.
The law about controlling the weather reminded me of a strange phenomenon during the American Dust Bowl. While the South was suffering from terrible drought, dust storms, and the Great Depression, charlatans would travel the south promising poor farming regions they would summon rain “with science”. They would launch fireworks into the sky in a big public display, claiming they were seeding clouds or something of the sort. A lot of very vulnerable people were taken advantage of during their lowest point, and the charlatans pocketed the money and fled to the next town before the townsfolk could realize no rain was coming. I wonder if local municipalities passed similar anti-weather-control laws or ordinances in the wake of these con men.

For the drunk 'driving' laws in Wyoming, you can get tag on bikes and horses too. Lol it's to prevent people from getting lost in the vast wilderness between towns we have. The winter can get a little rough here.

Maybe the onion ring law was inspired by Burger King. About 15 years ago I bought some “onion rings” there and was extremely disappointed to find that the rigs weren’t filled with onion, but with onion flavoured paste. I guess it changed several years later, but this was one big letdown when it happened
In Seattle it was illegal for anyone under 18 to play pinball until 1974. Sometimes on Christmas Day, the staff at Lake City Bowl would look the other way...
I grew up in Northen Michiga, graduating in 1987 and back when video games were coming out and gettin popular in arcades and bowling alley's my parent's allowed me to play any of the games EXCEPT pinball. They had the idea that all pinball games were owned and operated by the Mafia, even in our little town of less than 1000, and they were very much against that. Strange but true...😂😂😂

Hey @TheInfographicsShow, Have you covered the with it being illegal to collect rainwater? I want to know because its *REALLY* interesting to me, for better or for worse. (If not, please cover it. And I'm not sure with state it is.)
ive fact checked most of these laws because it was hard to believe that they were actually true 😂 im dead. it is important to note that the bingo and alcohol law was repealed in 2019 but the fact that it was even a thing floors me
My dad grew up in South Carolina and one of the silly laws was that all men had to carry a firearm into church for fear of an Indian (Native American) attack, still exists today, and was created around 1776.
I wonder if that dog/cat hair law is because someone was like putting it with wool and selling it as pure sheep wool so it was created to stop things like that. It's a really weird law! Kind of makes me want to become an illicit cat hair dealer! 😜
5:42 It’s not just in North Carolina where it’s illegal to sell alcohol at a bingo hall. When my grandfather (may he rest in peace) used to live close to me, he would sometimes take me to one and since I was above 13, I was considered old enough to play per Colorado state law, and the place we went to NEVER sold any alcohol. They only sold water or soda for drinks
4:56 can I just say that in Mississippi that's really not safe, alot of people have diabetes and need to know the calorie count to properly take enough insulin to yk survive. It shouldn't have to be a hassle for them to find out the calorie counts.
That's on the people buying the food, not on the people selling it. Also, calorie counting is a debunked thing. No one actually knows how many calories are in any given sample of food without scientifically testing it, which destroys the food sample in the process. Hamburger A might be as close to Hamburger B as possible, and yet they may have wildly different calorie counts. The government doesn't need to be telling us what to buy. It's OUR job to decide that, and as such it's OUR responsibility to not go around eating Grease Meal #5 if we've got a condition that it might affect.
PLEASE do more serial killer and kidnapping episodes! I would love to see one on the man who kept those 3 women prisoner in Chicago for over a decade. Or one about 9/11 and everything that happened that day (may everyone who passed rest in peace). Or the Craigslist killer.
The one about pinball in South Carolina stems from the fact that back in the 70s, when the law was passed, pinball machines dispensed tickets to redeem for prizes, which included money. Because of that, numerous states passed laws making it illegal for children to play pinball, but then all but South Carolina repealed the laws when evidence was brought forth that pinball is a game of skill, unlike slots which are a game of chance, which is what gambling is based on. They also removed ticket dispensers from pinball machines and removed money from the prize counters of arcades.
There are a lot of Mennonite families where I live (They still use horse and buggies to get around). As far as I know there is no actual speed limit for the horses but there is a law saying that you can't operate them "furiously". I think it translates to " just don't be an idiot". They do still have to have things like turn signals and a "slow vehicle" triangle on the back of the buggy though.
The weirdest one: requests to all teen boys to have a genital exam just to play sports. It’s unnecessary & uncomfortable Stop using the cancer excuse, ( 2 in 200,000 boys under 19 yo ) could develop testicular cancer, so it’s not fair annoying 200,000 In The name of 2 possible patients
Never heard about this before, I wonder what kind of mental strain/abuse the person(s) responsible for the inception of this law endured to say 'Any young man whom wishes to compete with and against other young men, must first be molested'.
Haha, guess I was a little criminal growing up then! I was a kid in South Carolina, and played pinball all the time, since my dad owns a pinball machine.
Many of these laws aren’t that crazy. Especially the Turkey one, what if you’re Jewish or Muslim, and want to follow dietary laws? You can’t eat pork, but you can eat Turkey
Step one: shoot big foot Step two:don't collect samples Step three:walk off Scott free because you can't get arrested for somthing they have no proof for
I actually knew a road on my old rural news route so we'll I accidentally ended up driving it ASLEEP! I ended up waking up when it was time for me to turn right off of the road

My Dad and Uncle as teens went drunk skydiving and the reason the law was later past in many states is because it could cause you to vomit and aspirate it into ur lungs, vomit on a passing plane or helicopter, vomit on someone walking or chilling outside, you could pass out, you could smack into other divers, you could smack into/desecrate/destroy a federal building or federally protected land, etc etc. It's basically to protect yourself and others
Ngl the infographic show use to be a respectable channel but nowadays it's just sad watching them they are slowly falling also all the stuff they are talking about is cap most of it is
0:32 this law makes sense if you think about it, skis can 40-60 miles downhill and they are long and thin. Also unlike cars their is nothing to protect you aside from a helmet. And children are allowed to ski unlike cars so you could hit a kid.
Tbh that law about conroling the weather kinda reminds me of that green dance powder stuff crocodile was using to make it rain in alubarna during the alabasta arc of one piece

I actually like that the government regulates food. Otherwise we could be scammed with bad products or worse, poisoned
Weirdest laws i also find:
-it's illegal to climb a Tree in Toronto, Canada
-it's illegal to be shirtless in Barcelona
-It's illegal to swear in the UAE (United Arab Emirates)
-It's illegal to sleep in a Cheese factory in South Dakota
-It's illegal to reincarnate without permission in China
Nice Bob Heironimus reference, that's a deep cut lol 🤣
My Dad and Uncle as teens went drunk skydiving and the reason the law was later past in many states is because it could cause you to vomit and aspirate it into ur lungs, vomit on a passing plane or helicopter, vomit on someone walking or chilling outside, you could pass out, you could smack into other divers, you could smack into/desecrate/destroy a federal building or federally protected land, etc etc.
It's basically to protect yourself and others
I find these laws to be quite sane
Not being critical, but when you talked about the state of Delaware you said “this tiny northwest state” But Delaware is in the northeast
North and South Carolina have laws about gambling. North: No Alcohol in places where Bingo is played. South: Those under 18 cannot play Pinball
It is illegal in SC to plow with an elephant

1:30 Delaware is a "Tiny Northwestern State"? lol
Love this channel!
Libby's used to call it "Catchup"
burger king uses dehydrated diced onions in their onion rings, and nowhere does the menu say that.
0:32 this law makes sense if you think about it, skis can 40-60 miles downhill and they are long and thin. Also unlike cars their is nothing to protect you aside from a helmet.
And children are allowed to ski unlike cars so you could hit a kid.
The weirdest law I have to follow is that I can't plow a field with an elephant. That's a very oddly specific law!
Tbh that law about conroling the weather kinda reminds me of that green dance powder stuff crocodile was using to make it rain in alubarna during the alabasta arc of one piece
"Who calls ketchup ketchup?"😂😂😂😂😂
Me- *a kid in SC*
Wow we actually got mentioned in something 😭
4:27 Pinball on the same level of gambling? Definitely makes sense that it’s on this list. I bet they either never played or they always lost.
Insane Laws: "Don't drink while operating a vehicle, don't drive blindfolded" 💀
didn't think half of these laws even could exist in the USA.i guess it's true you learn something new every single day
Tiny Northwestern state of Delaware.. It was on the east coast last I checked.
Gotta love how in Delaware it’s illegal to sell dog hair but it’s completely legal to own an AR15. ‘Merica!
The US has weird laws
Imagine being so analy retentive you regulate how fast ketchup runs. 😂 I'd really love to know if and where this is a weird law elsewhere in the world.
U can’t have a ice cream cone in ur back pocket in ky... can’t believe u missed that lol
I like it, "Or maybe just a guy named Bob in a gorilla suit."
The comment section is missing "just some bigfoot with Internet access"
We could change the weather, if it’s a little cold for Charlie, drop him a big ol’ space heater… which is a nuclear ICBM.
