From Rajnigandha to cow urine, YouTuber Karl Rock serves ‘Indian flavours' to foreigners and their reactions are pure gold

Popular YouTuber and scam-busting advocate Karl Rock recently took things to a whole new level, not by exposing the scammers this time, but by challenging his fellow creators to taste some of India's boldest, strangest, and most extreme flavours. From the minty intensity of Rajnigandha paan masala to the Ayurvedic shock of Godhan Ark (distilled cow urine), Karl served up an unforgettable tasting session to other famous YouTubers, including Pierogi (Scammer Payback), Pleasant Green, Trilogy Media, Deyo, Nanobaiter, and Matt from AnyDesk. Their raw, unfiltered reactions, ranging from laughter to disgust to utter disbelief, were nothing short of comedy gold. Extreme Indian flavours challenge goes viral Rock led the 'extreme Indian flavours' challenge at the People's Call Centre in London. Well, it is a fact that India is known for its bold, complex flavours, and what's everyday comfort food in the country can feel like a taste explosion or a complete nightmare for foreigners. Here's how these scam-busting legends handled everything from spicy candy to Ayurvedic cow urine: Hajmola—The tangy tablet that shocked everyone: First up was Hajmola, a small digestive tablet popular in India and eaten like a candy. It is commonly made with black salt and traditional herbs and delivers a sour pinch with a sulphuric undertone. While at the moment, Pierogi popped it in; he can be seen immediately gagging in the video, describing it as 'rotten sulphur eggs with lemon.' On the other hand, the Art from Trilogy Media pushed through a few chews, with tears in his eyes, before calling it a crime against candy. While Deyo enjoyed it like a kid. Uncle Chips (mint masala): The surprise crowd-pleaser: The next was Uncle Chips, a classic Indian potato chip with flavours of mint, black pepper, turmeric, and cumin. To everyone's surprise, these were a massive hit. 'Yo, these are amazing!' said Matt, reaching for more. Pulse Kachcha Aam: The candy that tricks you: Next comes the deceptive Pulse Kachcha Aam, a raw mango candy with a tangy outer shell and a spicy masala centre. It started with all smiles, sweet, sour, and familiar. But once the spicy core hit, reactions turned dramatic. Rajnigandha Paan Masala—Minty Fresh or Too Strange?: After that, the group tried Rajnigandha Paan Masala, a tobacco-free mouth freshener with crushed betel nut and intense minty notes, and the reactions were extremely hilarious. Godhan Ark (Gau Mutra)—The ultimate dare: Last but not least was the Godhan Ark, a distilled form of gau mutra (cow urine) used in Ayurvedic medicine for treating diseases like obesity, diabetes, and cough. This is also a traditional drink used in religious or medicinal contexts, rather than as a food. However, during the challenge, people hesitated but tried it. Netizens react to the reactions of the YouTubers trying out Indian flavours As soon as the video dropped on the internet, it quickly went viral, and people shared their reactions to the same. One user in the YouTube comment section wrote, "I respect traditional practices, but it's important to separate cultural beliefs from health choices. Stay safe and informed!" "Being an Indian I wouldn't have that last one. I'd have the same reaction as these guys," another added. "Karl could have taken down the entire centre implementing a taste testing session 😆... Poor Deyo looked terrified:)" To stay updated on the stories that are going viral, follow Indiatimes Trending.

Online vigilantes turn tables on scammers who victimize the elderly

(NewsNation) — Los Angeles-based Trilogy Media is trying to unravel complicated global scams that target vulnerable people, including the elderly, and sometimes the self-styled internet vigilantes are even able to turn the tables on fraudsters. 'These scammers are becoming so prolific and so successful. They are really good at making several different layers of separation between themselves and the victim,' co-founder Ashton Bingham tells 'CUOMO.' With its online content, Trilogy Media primarily educates the public about how some of these elaborate scams work by coaxing victims to part with information or money. Bingham and co-founder Art Kulik say bringing the perpetrators to justice is challenging because of jurisdictional issues. More than $35,000 recovered in stolen Bitcoin scam for Ohio woman 'Domestic law enforcement will say, 'Well, they're out of the country, we can't do anything,' but then foreign law enforcement will say, 'The victim is in the United States, so we can't do anything,'' Bingham said. In certain instances, Trilogy Media has been able to find people in the U.S. who are working with the scammers overseas. 'You can talk to us, or we can report it to police,' Bingham tells a suspect in one episode. Internationally, scammers are believed to siphon $1 trillion annually from victims.
