تدريب Shadowing: Fluffy Goes To India | Gabriel Iglesias - تعلم التحدث بالإنجليزية عبر الفيديو

Martin and I just got back from India.

Yeah.

So let me tell you, I started posting on Facebook and Twitter that we were going to go out there to do these shows.

And then people started sending me messages questioning what I was going to do.

First of all, are they going to understand you in India?

Will they understand English okay?

Will they be able to follow along with your stories?

Once we got there, I come to find out

that more people speak English in India than in all of the US and Canada put together.

Might as well throw Mexico in there for extra credit.

Because there's that many people, and yes, they have the internet.

They got the internet, they got Bollywood, they got Hollywood.

They understand American culture so much more than we understand theirs.

Second thing, people tried to warn me about going over there.

Gabriel, be careful.

India is a third world country.

Don't drink the water in India.

It contains parasites that'll make you really sick.

Don't eat the food from the street people, especially the street meat.

It contains a parasite that'll make you really sick.

And most importantly, there's a lot of crime over there.

Don't stay out late.

When the sun goes down, you go down.

I'm like, is it that bad?

Parasites.

So I'm like, let me get this straight.

There's a lot of crime, don't stay out late, don't eat any of the food from the street vendors, and don't drink the water.

Why does that sound familiar?

That's Mexico!

When Martin and I got over there, we found out that Indian people and Mexican people have so much in common, you guys.

I'm telling you, it's insane how similar we are, especially the food.

The food is so similar.

For example, Mexicans love tortillas.

Indian people love naan bread, which is a fluffier form of a tortilla.

Mexicans love chicken.

Indians love chicken.

Mexicans love hot and spicy.

Indians invented hot and spicy.

Most popular drink in India is Fanta.

Indian people worship cows.

Mexicans love barbecues.

A lot of similarities.

Most of the people that I met over there were very hard-working and humble.

And I got to tell you, every time I talked to someone, I was always greeted the same way.

They'd look at me, they'd put their hands together, they'd do a little bow, and they'd say, Namaste, which is an endearing hello.

It's really nice and sweet.

And then I noticed that Indian people, when you're talking to them, do this thing with their head where it will begin to move side to side as they're speaking.

Now at first when you notice it you think, oh he slept wrong.

He just got a kink in his neck.

Get a Tempur-Pedic!

Now when they start speaking their head starts moving and I notice this.

The guy is checking us into the hotel and he's really cool.

He's like, listen, if you have any problems at all, you call the front desk, you press zero, we will send somebody to your room to help you.

Whatever you need, we got it for you right here, okay?

It's very good.

Now one thing I notice is the more they talk and the more excited Indian people get, the more the head starts to move around.

Somebody at the hotel yelled out to the clerk, that's fluffy, and the guy was like, oh my God, I don't believe it, I can do it now, I thought it was you, I thought it was you, oh my God, I cannot believe it,

this is so crazy, oh my God, fluffy, fluffy, fluffy.

Even crazier than that is that the mouth is actually connected to the neck.

When the mouth stops moving, the head stops wherever the mouth left off.

And when you see Indian people talking to each other, you can see it.

Okay, let me tell you something, okay, okay hold on wait wait wait wait wait okay like if you're Indian and you stutter you are so screwed

somebody stop him

I'm not gonna lie you guys

when I first saw this happen I thought it was hysterical I thought it was funny

but then I started thinking about it head movement is just a form of expression.

No matter where you live in this world, people express themselves in their own unique way,

whether through facial expressions, hand gestures, body movement, extra words.

Everywhere you go, things are different, and that's just how they express themselves in India.

Now, back to the whole Indians-Mexican thing.

That is something else that we share in common with Indian people.

Head movement.

Now, some of you in the building tonight are like, stupid it we don't have head movement yes we do it's

a little different see with Indian people the head movement is

side to side Mexicans our head movement is front to back the difference between that is

that with Mexicans we have to be very very upset in

order for you to see the head movement otherwise you can't tell with With Indians, it's all the time.

Oh, today's such a nice day.

It is such a beautiful day today.

I'm so happy.

It's very nice, very good.

Oh my God, I can't believe it's so nice.

Mexicans, when we're mad, that's when it comes out.

For non-Latinos, hey, trust me, you cut off a Mexican in traffic, see what happens.

That's funny.

I don't know why the black people are laughing.

You guys take it all.

Oh no, you didn't.

Oh hell no. I know he ain't talking about me.

Uh-uh.

I hear the bell.

I made myself dizzy doing that.

So let me tell you guys, if you ever get the opportunity to travel to India, I encourage you to check it out.

You are going to see some beautiful things.

You are going to see some amazing things.

You are going to see some sad, depressing things and some real horrible things.

Overall, it's a well-balanced trip.

100

Now when you get back home here to the United States, you will have a whole different appreciation for your life.

101

Believe that.

102

I guarantee this, you guys.

103

There's a lot of people in India.

104

And with a lot of people comes a lot of traffic.

105

First things first, American traffic and Indian traffic, very different.

106

Here, whatever happens on the freeway will stop the whole freeway.

107

In India, there's ten times the traffic, but it moves.

108

See, the problem is Americans, we're fascinated by accidents.

109

We're fascinated by the idea of seeing potential death.

110

That's why we slow down on the freeways.

111

We say we don't want to see it, but what happens in traffic?

112

You know, ah!

113

What's going on over there?

114

There doesn't even have to be a collision.

115

You could be on the 101 freeway and a car has a tire blowout and it spins.

116

Doesn't hit anything.

117

It's now facing oncoming traffic.

118

You know what happens to the rest of the freeway?

119

Even on the other freeway where there's no accident.

120

And again, what's going on?

121

It's going on.

122

I'm sorry, somebody might be dead.

123

Sorry.

124

In India, if there's an accident in the middle of the street, you know what they do?

125

They drive right around it.

126

They don't stop.

127

And it's not that they're not sensitive to the situation.

128

They are.

129

It's just that there's so much chaos that happens on a regular basis.

130

They just need to get to work.

131

They do see what's happening.

132

And believe me, they're heartfelt.

133

You know, they'll drive around.

134

I'm so sorry for you.

135

Nothing stops the flow of traffic in India.

136

They need to get from point A to point B.

137

And so they go.

138

They go.

139

If there's an accident, they drive around.

140

If there's something blocking the street, they get on the sidewalk to go around.

141

It's amazing the way they drive.

142

And here's something else.

143

No one uses turn signals over there.

144

No one uses turn signals.

145

They use a horn.

146

Now, if you go to India tomorrow, from the time you get there to the time you leave, You're constantly gonna hear a horn.

147

It's an actual language when people are driving.

148

I'll show you you're driving

149

Car car car on your right car car on your left

150

Car car light up ahead they talk to each other while they're driving and they barely miss each other every

151

Single time also you'll be on the 101 freeway here, and there'll be six lanes in India You'll see six lanes,

152

but guess what you'll see 12 cars across Yes, they have lines, but they're basically there to let you know more or less the direction you might want to go in.

153

They're this close to each other, and even at the light, they communicate.

154

You see everything.

155

Cars, trucks, vans, motorcycles, pedestrians, cows, children, all waiting for the light.

156

And they talk at the light with the horn.

157

Very good, you can go.

158

You can go.

159

Welcome, you're welcome, go go.

160

Nothing stops the flow of traffic over there.

161

Indian people drive.

162

Think of ants.

163

You know how ants travel in a straight line?

164

And if there's something in their way like a rock, ants will split up, go around the rock and reunite or climb over the rock.

165

Worst case scenario, they dig a hole and go under the rock.

166

That's the mentality of driving in India.

167

A man can get shot in the middle of the street.

168

People just look at each other.

169

Somebody pick him up.

170

And they'll drag his ass onto the sidewalk.

171

And if there's an accident and they need to get around, guess what's going to happen to that guy on the sidewalk?

172

Nothing stops the flow of traffic in India.

173

Except a cow.

174

Now, I know we've always heard the stories and the jokes about, oh, Indian people don't eat hamburgers.

175

I asked a question and I found out.

176

It's believed that cows are people who have died and they've been reincarnated.

177

And their new life is now the cow.

178

Which is why they don't eat them and why they give them all the love and respect in the world over there.

179

I saw this firsthand.

180

There's a cow crossing the street while we're driving.

181

And the cows know.

182

They're cocky.

183

They know that they can cross.

184

Here we go.

185

All the cows.

186

And the cows out there are all cocky.

187

No one honks at the cows,

188

no one yells at the cows, no one touches the cows.

189

They wait for the cows to finish crossing.

190

The cow that we had laid down.

191

The driver just shut off the car.

192

tweeting there is a cow in the middle of the street hashtag mumu

193

I asked the driver what's going on sir there there is a cow I see

194

that there's a cow are you gonna honk at it go

195

around what's what's gonna happen we cannot we We cannot honk the cow.

196

We must wait for the cow to move.

197

You're kidding.

198

I am not kidding.

199

We must wait for the cow.

200

We drove past a dead body 15 minutes ago. That is probably him.

201

Like seriously, the driving situation over there is so intense, you guys.

202

One morning, one morning while we're there, I needed to get to the airport fast because I overslept.

203

And so I get in the cab and I hand the driver a $50 bill.

204

And I go, sir, I am running very late.

205

I need to get to the airport as soon as possible.

206

Whatever side street you have to take or back road, I'm all for it.

207

Whatever you have to do, let's do it.

208

And I hand him the money and he goes, very good, let's go.

209

And we take off.

210

The guy is hitting anywhere from 50 to 70 miles an hour on the street.

211

We are making incredible time.

212

I notice that we're heading in the direction of a red light.

213

Have you ever been in a car with someone?

214

and you're paying attention to what's going on and you notice that you're about to hit a red light,

215

and you know how you start to mentally and physically prepare yourself for the deceleration of the car, and you start anticipating the pressure from the brake,

216

and if you don't get the sensation of slowing down by a certain point, all alarms go off in your head, and you sock the driver in the chest.

217

Hey!

218

Not only did I not get the sensation of slowing down, I got the opposite.

219

He gunned it towards the light.

220

And it caught me off guard.

221

I couldn't even scream.

222

I was like, and then, and then I got air.

223

Hey, pull over, pull over.

224

He didn't even know what he did.

225

He looks at me, he goes, what is wrong?

226

What do you mean?

227

What is wrong?

228

Dude, didn't you see the red light?

229

As calm as can be.

230

Didn't you see?

231

There was no one there.

232

You told me, whatever you have to do, okay?

233

Whatever you have to do, you do.

234

Do you want to yell or do you want to make plane?

235

He made a good point.

236

I sounded like a third grader.

237

I want to make plane.

238

Like seriously, that's a video game I want to see.

239

I want to see Grand Theft Auto India.

240

It was so crazy, you guys.

241

And this is just us being there.

242

I haven't even gotten to the part of us performing.

243

We were in Mumbai, Bangalore, and Delhi.

244

Okay, these three places is where we went to perform.

245

Mumbai and Bangalore, the shows went over very, very well.

246

Okay, there were about 1,500 to 2,000 people, which is amazing for us going over there.

247

I was like excited, yes.

248

And then we get to Delhi.

249

And when we got to Delhi, you guys, it got a little crazy.

250

Martin walks out on stage and the crowd recognized him.

251

And they started chanting, Martin!

252

Anytime I hear that, I'm like, they know him, it's gonna be a good show.

253

So Martin starts cracking jokes.

254

The crowd starts laughing.

255

He's cracking more jokes.

256

The crowd keeps laughing.

257

All of a sudden, I hear this.

258

Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.

259

Martin doesn't say a word to them.

260

He gets off stage, next comedian comes out, and then Martin comes over to me and he says, Bro, I don't know what's going on, man.

261

I don't know what's going on out there.

262

There's these three guys in the front row.

263

They're laughing like Klingons from Star Trek.

264

I'm not going to address them.

265

I'm going to save them for you.

266

I was like, oh, thank you.

267

So then Martin goes back out there on stage, and he introduces me ladies and gentlemen gabriel iglesias

268

and then i run out on stage and the crowd started chanting fluffy fluffy

269

and i was like what's up delhi

270

and i start cracking jokes start getting laughs start cracking more jokes start getting more laughs and then it happened

271

Now see me, I can't avoid things, especially when it's front row center.

272

So I addressed it.

273

I came right out and I said, well, hello.

274

I said, what do we have here?

275

I said, so where are you guys from?

276

And the guy in the middle looks at me and he goes, we are from Germany.

277

I said, cool.

278

We have Germans in the house.

279

And the whole crowd got really weird.

280

You could hear them.

281

They freaked out because they thought I was gonna start making fun of the German people.

282

And one guy even stood up.

283

Don't do it!

284

Don't do it!

285

Don't do it!

286

I go relax bro, have a sit.

287

Don't do it!

288

I'm not gonna make fun of the German people.

289

That's the last thing I wanna do is offend them.

290

I don't wanna end up outside in an alley somewhere freaking in two hours.

291

And this is the last time we are going to tell you, do not make fun of German people.

292

As I'm doing this joke about a German kicking me on the floor with the accent, here's where it gets crazy.

293

I get hit in the side of the head by a bat.

294

Listen to what I just told you, Bay Area.

295

I get hit in the side of the head by a bat.

296

Not Major League Baseball.

297

I'm talking about I'm going to suck your blood.

298

In India there are millions and millions and millions of fruit bats and one of them, actually six of them, made it inside of the building

299

and they're flying around and they're hanging out in the rafters

300

and one of them decides to fly down and basically

301

when I was doing the kicks I stepped into the line of flight of the bat and he caught me right here.

302

I'm like what the hell?

303

I look up and you see it and you can hear it.

304

The Indian people saw that and they freaked out.

305

They were yelling, they did it!

306

They did it!

307

We told you, don't do it!

308

We told you, don't do it!

309

They are evil!

310

They are evil!

311

I'm like, dude, I don't care how evil you think the Germans are.

312

They don't have control over bats.

313

It wasn't like the guy got offended and said, oh really?

314

Unz release the bat.

315

So now the crowd is weird.

316

These guys are laughing.

317

Ah, ah, ah, ah.

318

And there's freaking bats flying around the theater.

319

First two minutes of my show.

320

I gotta do an hour.

321

And now I've already lost the crowd.

322

They're freaking out.

323

These guys are laughing weird.

324

I'm nervous.

325

It's my first time there.

326

I don't know how to get out of this.

327

So I literally walked over to the other side of the stage

328

and I started just performing for this side of the room.

329

Trying to redirect the focus right here.

330

And I'm so nervous.

331

I'm stuttering.

332

I don't even have a segue.

333

I'm like, you know what's crazy?

334

In America, everybody in America likes drinking.

335

You know, it's real crazy.

336

For example, Mexicans, most Mexicans, we like drinking tequila.

337

Most black people like Hennessy.

338

Most white people like Jaeger.

339

Here in India, you guys like Fanta.

340

And when I said Fanta, the crowd went crazy because it was such a local reference, they freaked out.

341

They were like screaming, oh my God, he knows, he knows.

342

They started singing.

343

Fanta, Fanta, don't you wanna, Fanta, Fanta, don't you wanna, Fanta, Fanta.

344

The roar was so big, it allowed me to restart my show.

345

So I started cracking new jokes and more jokes and these jokes and those jokes.

346

Five minutes go by.

347

Five minutes go by, all of a sudden, the Germans got offended at the fact that I left them out of my drinking joke.

348

The one in the middle stands up and he approaches the stage.

349

Now this stage has got to be about five feet tall.

350

The guy's head was about this high.

351

He was like 6'4".

352

He looks at me and he starts pointing and he's yelling.

353

Hey, Fat Nan!

354

Fat Nan!

355

What about us, huh?

356

What about the Germans?

357

What do we drink?

358

I was like, dude, that was like five minutes ago.

359

We were giving you a chance!

360

What do we drink?

361

I'm like, first of all, sir, I apologize.

362

I'm really nervous right now.

363

I had no idea there was gonna be Germans here tonight.

364

Yeah, it felt like Poland.

365

I don't care if you laugh or not, that's a smart-ass joke.

366

That's a smart-ass joke.

367

It's not my fault some of you pendejos failed history.

368

You better Google that and find out why it's so damn funny.

369

All the older white people are like, eh, goddammit, yeah.

370

So anyway, so I'm standing there and I go, listen, sir, you need to have a seat, okay?

371

Okay, the people are getting nervous.

372

You need to have a seat so I can finish the show

373

and the guys he refuses I will not sit down fat man until you tell us what we drink.

374

I go listen I don't know what you guys drink and the Indians are being so cute.

375

They're trying to help me.

376

They're yelling.

377

Hey, they like Fanta too And the guy was like we don't like Fanta I go sir, please have a seat.

378

I will not have a seat until you tell us what we drink.

379

Tell us fat man I go listen sir, you need to sit down and you need to stop calling me fat man Now it's starting to bother me.

380

It's like the sixth time he does it.

381

And I didn't just lose 100 pounds to now get called Fat Man.

382

So I go, sir, if you don't have a seat, we're going to have a problem, especially if you call me Fat Man again.

383

And he freaking did it.

384

What are you going to do, Fat Man?

385

What do I drink?

386

Even Martin, who's behind the curtain, knew.

387

He knows when I'm at that point where I've crossed over.

388

I can hear him in the back.

389

Don't do it.

390

Too late.

391

Fluffy's pissed.

392

So I said you want to know what you drink?

393

Tell me!

394

Don't ask me where this came from I got right in his face and I said blood of juice

395

Now see automatically you guys gave me a whole different reaction

396

in delhi that was probably the most shocking thing ever said on that stage so shocking that

397

2 000 people at the exact same time got

398

so quiet you guys so quiet you could hear everyone's ass just

399

and i'm still standing there my hands out have you ever said something that was so bad and I mean,

400

you knew it was bad as it was coming out of your mouth, and you're trying to stop it, but it's too late.

401

It's already out, and you're like, no. And it's too late.

402

Blood of juice is all over his face, right?

403

I'm standing there, and my hands are out.

404

I'm looking at him.

405

He's looking at me, and I'm like, ah!

406

He says, that's a good one.

407

Yeah, that's a good one.

408

Oh, my God, thank you.

409

Thank you.

410

It doesn't end there.

411

I'm telling you guys, this is so crazy So next morning, Martin

412

and I are flying back home to Los Angeles from Delhi

413

We're taking an airline called British Airways We go from Delhi to London, England And we have a connecting flight over there Once we get to England,

414

they canceled our connect for whatever reason And so we got rebooked on another airline Called Lufthansa It's a German airline

415

Now this is why I believe in karma.

416

Seriously, Martin's like, really?

417

Blood of Jews?

418

I'm like, I know!

419

I felt like they phoned ahead.

420

Unz, take care of Fluffy.

421

So I put down my credit card.

422

I made sure that Martin and I got upgraded to at least their business class, because it's like a long flight.

423

And, um, so we're in there, we're on the plane, and the plane takes off.

424

About 20 minutes into the flight, we're just sitting there, we're laughing.

425

And the flight attendant she starts coming down the aisle with a little cart Okay, she's coming down the aisle and she sees me and she goes hello, sir.

426

Oh, do you have a preferred drink of choice today?

427

Martin looks at me taps me in the chest and he goes hey tell her

428

Tell her bro come on ask for if anybody has it Dude, shut up.

429

And then she looks at Martin.

430

Sir, do you have a preferred drink of choice?

431

And Martin's like, yeah, you guys got blood of...

432

She's like, Bloody Mary?

433

Yes, yes, Bloody Mary.

434

Freaking Macheta's gonna get me banned from flying.

435

ما هي تقنية التظليل الصوتي؟

التظليل الصوتي (Shadowing) تقنية تعلم لغة مدعومة علمياً، طُورت أصلاً لتدريب المترجمين الفوريين المحترفين. الطريقة بسيطة لكنها قوية: تستمع لصوت إنجليزي أصلي وتكرره فوراً بصوت عالٍ — كظل يتبع المتحدث بتأخير 1-2 ثانية. تُظهر الأبحاث تحسناً كبيراً في دقة النطق والتنغيم والإيقاع وربط الأصوات والاستماع والطلاقة.
