A big group of Chinese tourists wanted to be first on a boat for some reason so they all just started shoving everyone out of the way, including little old ladies and children. It was really shocking behavior, like suddenly everyone around them was no longer a person. The boat was huge and had plenty of room for everyone so it wasn’t really obvious why they decided to attack people, they didn’t really gain anything by being the first aboard.
I went snorkeling in a group alongside a Chinese tourist family. The dad literally swam over top of me. To be clear, I was floating on the surface. Instead of going around me, he just swam over me, legs kicking and all. Fucking weirdest experience ever.
Was it Niagara Falls? Seen Asians do this before for the maid of the myst but not sure what nationality they were. Always assumed it was some Asian version of a college or school frat.
Nope, happened in Paris getting on one of the big tour boats that cruise the Seine. I think it was a large extended family or possibly a tour group composed of multiple families, the youngest were preteens and the oldest were maybe 50s or early 60s. I couldn’t figure out if there was a tour guide or anyone in charge of the group. We stayed as far from them as we could, they seemed like a bunch of rich assholes and were mostly loud and obnoxious the entire cruise. And just to make it clear, I’ve seen a lot of shit behavior from tourists in my life and no ethnicity or nationality has a monopoly on shitty tourists. People are monsters, and rich assholes are gonna rich asshole. This one just stands out as the worst because it was such a large group and the violence was so sudden and pointless, and then we were trapped on a boat ride with them.
Seen Chinese do (try) the same thing in plitwice national parks. There are only these small wooden paths leading down to the boats. Let’s put it this way: it’s rather unamused when someone two heads smaller than you and half your weight tries to force you into a lake/marshland. What is however amusing is simply stopping to move and watch them loose balance.

Shoving is pretty normal in mainland China. It’s just how you get through crowds. I’ve heard it’s getting better.

For some reason I find that hilarious I would’ve been so shocked I wouldn’t have reacted.

I’ve heard this is common
