Is Mumbai safer than London when it comes to using the phone in public? Recent video creator has triggered a debate online after comparing its experience in both cities.
The United British Oneat Sihaan, who traveled to more than 30 capitals, shared a clip on Instagram, contrasting how he freely uses his phone in Mumbai versus London. To surprise many, he claimed that he felt more cool in Mumbai, Indian financial capital than in the British capital.
“After traveling to more than 30 capitals around the world, my inability to use the phone freely in one of the largest cities in the world is still shocked.
In the video, Siahaan is carelessly visible by his phone while sitting in Mumbai. But in the London clip he is noticeably cautious and often looks around. He revealed that even in areas he considered safe, police warned him to remain on the readiness of the growing phones.
“The London clip in this video was actually filmed on what I thought he had been one of the safest areas for me in the last two years. But immediately after filming, I was guarding me by a bicycle to stay alert because of the growing number of phones in the area,” he added.
According to him, the risk is so high that “if people simply sit on the grass with their phones visible in their hands, they will come and catch them immediately.”
Since then, the video has become viral and many social media users agree with its perspective. Several commentators shared their own experience in capping and theft in London and repeated the creator’s concern.
While the contribution surprised many people who assume that London is safer, he also ruled interviews about city security, public behavior and everyday reality of life in the two busiest cities in the world.
The user wrote, “lol. I told my friends in the UK and were offended.”
Another user wrote: “The only time I got in my life was in London … and I lived in India, South Africa and Colombia.”
“From someone who had a stolen passport in London, Truth,” the third user wrote.
The fourth shared the incident: “Five years ago, August 20, the man on the bike tried to appreciate my phone from my hand right in front of the British museum in daylight. My phone survived. I had a lovely grip on it and my phone stayed with me.”
“I love London rightly, but it’s sad,” the fifth user shared.
