"Made in the gratitude factory in the holy city of Varanasi where they’ve built a workshop of creation and devotion, combining work and worship into one harmonious symbiosis" strange way to describe a sweatshop
lol dude this was funny... was that a genuine 5/5? Do you still use it or have you gotten used to it? Wondering if this would be a good gift for the wife
I find this is quite nice to lie down on if you have sore back muscles from work - and the pain is fairly tolerable. I think used for yoga it is excruciating- and whether or not that is a “good” or “bad” thing depends entirely upon how you feel about excruciating pain. With that said, everyone’s husband gets them jewellery or perfume. How many women get the joy of opening a large floppy present on Christmas morn, and discovering that their sworn love has spent half their life savings on an unusual torture device from the orient? And the ability to hang the shakti mat from a wall means that she’ll be able to display it in the parlour, eliciting the jealousy of all her friends with conventional husbands.
So the inside is essentially a block of sponge, wrapped in some printed fabric, to which the spikes are attached. So I wouldn’t call the materials particularly high end given the price. The spikes however, are still attached, both to the matt and my back, so it has lasted. Personally I’d say it is nice for knots in the back but hasn’t cured my chronic immune condition
I broke my back, neck, shoulder, and hip when younger so been on all opiates possible and the cheaper alternative to this mat legit gives me more pain relief than any opiate ever did. You also get the itchy scratchy sensation after you get off the mat too!

I think the point that you’re missing is that transformation come when we go beyond the comfort zone - so working in a sweatshop is good for you
This was not at all how I expected the video to be when I clicked on it 😂😂😂 best case scenario I watched the whole thing
maaan you shoudl be more famous! i love your humor and energy! please keep going
My doctor has advised me that I should not be more famous - but thank you!
So,didn't you try to use it for a longer period of time? Most comments i read said that you can feel the benefit in about 2 weeks.
Although the original video is two weeks long it was edited down for purposes of the average TH-camrs attention span as indicated by our analytics
@@Dangermorris I meant the first sentence to be a question. ....so, how long did you use it ?
Two weeks. The video is of a two-week amphetamine fuelled yoga-sesh that was cut down to a few minutes for the purposes of the review
Amphetamine fuelled yoga sesh 😂
Thank you for sharing your experience with such humour. It was unexpected but definitely fun to watch.
Just doing my duty, citizen
Haha the white guy comment kept me watching
Which intensity level mat did you use?
I honestly cannot remember but I want to say a million?
I keep falling dead asleep when laying on my back with the shakti mat lol getting a whole night sleep.
I get a similar effect when someone hits me in the head with a saucepan
@Dangermorris lol I think the shakti mat is safer without getting a concussion lmao 🤣

@@Dangermorris 😂 Thanks for the reponse
Ok but would you genuinely recommend it?? Concept is interesting but the orientalist vibe and 3.6 on trustpilot are setting off alarm bells...

Weird, opiates also give an itchy feeling when you try to get off them
@Dangermorris I still get the nose itches and stuff. It's a histamine reaction
Could we have more Dad Tips?
I can’t say no to my fans…
its not so bad , outside of the spikes in my face lol
It’d be nice if I didn’t have spikes in my face hahaha
This cracked me up 😂
This cracked me up too in the sense that it made lots of holes in my back
Still using it?
Necessarily, it’s attached permanently to my back by the spikes
@@Dangermorris Ouch... You get relief from it though! RIGHT?
Havent laughed so much in a while
Hahah love this video 😁
you could be a siri voice
I was a Siri voice but Apple only pays ¢1 a word and I didn’t like getting out of bed every time someone said “hey Siri”
great answer
This was pointless lol
Quite the opposite! It actually had thousands of points - arguably too many
