Most Lucky and Unlucky Numbers for Chinese People 

3:02 MISTA PUT DOWN THE GUN!!

Mista is right number 4 is very unlucky

*MISTA DOES NOT APPROVE OF 4*

Mista: *Four is unlucky.*

Mista said to us 4 is unlucky He said that really true

Can I not see any Guido Mista reference?

You accidentally buy a house with 4 rooms. What should you do? *>> Destroy one of the room* *>> Sell your house* *>> It's okay.* *>> Destroy all the room to get 0 room. 0 = money*

Chineses hate number 4 Mista also hates number 4 *MISTA IS A CHINESE?!!*

Who came here because of mista

There was this kid who got a cat and it scratched his eye out

Before I bought my house, I had the numbers looked up. I have 7 in my address. Probably explains why I'm been so angry! Lol

Off the Great Wall Hey guys i really watching your show I like the fact that it's very educational and funny at the same time one of the main things that inspire me is learning about different countries and different cultures I think you guys really do a great job keep it up !

Good Video Guys! Weird not having Carmen, but an AWESOME video none the less!

Interesting!!! Thank You for sharing. 😃👍👏👏👏

So glad I've found you guys. Very interesting topics and subjects. Love Chinese culture. Tell us more. Keep up with great work

hahah I really enjoy your videos ;)

You guys are great please keep up the great videos. I'm a CBC (Canadian Born Chinese) and my son was born at 11:28pm on August (8th month) 28th! You are so right about the lucky and unlucky numbers. I have never seen a table 4 or 14 at a Chinese banquet. Please do some videos for me in the near future? Topics: 1) short history of all the emperors in China, 2) dispel the myth that the Chinese are the "model minority" or "silent minority" and stereotypes aren't true (ie asian women love sex like in the porn movies), 3) why we tap our fingers on the table when others pour or tea and other eat/drinking etiquette, 4) your recommendation on good books and movies that are Chinese (with eng subtitles), 5) strange chinese medicines/herbs that still work today. I'm a big fan and would love to help you guys in any way, hit me up. Happy Holidays and Happy New Year! Sarah

I learned that the double 喜 is like double happiness 囍, which is ironically a brand of cigarettes in mainland China. And I've been in buildings with no 4th floor or 14th floor, sometimes replaced with 3A or 13A, respectively. Or it goes, 1,2,3,5...12,13,15...etc.

I really enjoyed this video, and I'm enjoying the new presenter's style, even though Carmen was a great presenter too! Keep it up!

hey bro.......cool video.....very interesting

Wow! I just learned what some of the tiles are in Mahjong game I play! Awesome!

There is a Emergency Animal Hospital down the street from my house with a huge sign with their phone number 212-444-4444...don't take your pets there

very interesting :)

I'm Chinese (from Malaysia) and was born on the 4th July 1994. I knew that 4 is the most unlucky number. But to find out that 7 might also become an unlucky number. I think I'm going to cry T.T.

omg! u r sooooo funny Dan!!! LOL

I like this. I've spent over hour an a half just going through all these videos. Some are funny and some are very interesting. For me at least since I love the Asian culture. Nice to learn few other things. ^.^ These vids deserve more views. My personal opinion that is.

I think 3 is more lucky than 8 and more richer than 8.....

777 is my numbers and have had much luck with them...seven octaves seven colours of the rainbow..seven is a lucky number in the west for sure ..ive met a lot of westerners who favor seven

What's funny is that this is almost like we have our own secret language and you can always tell who's Chinese by the numbers on their license plates or phone numbers...ect. I mean when you see 888 anywhere, you know 99.9% of the time it's a Chinese person. It's our secret code :-)

I love number 8, i didn't even knew it meant infinite wealth :D.

This video is proof.

i have noticed that the lift of some of the hotel to ball room has no 4 it is being replaced by 3a

if a gothic chinese couple want to get marry they should choose number 4 for their date of wedding. Eg: 04.4.2014 at 4:44:44 PM and then gave birth to 4 children. lol

In chinese sites, there are many people comment "666", which means "well played"

awkward moment when my bday is april 4th..

i think number zero is lucky, because it can also be spoken as (from 灵验, which means effective, accurate, it's working). so maybe things will work for you... and also it's kind of round/not disconnected, which is also good, kind of like a circle...

My dad's car plate number is 888, we had to change it several times until they got the number. How lucky we are! 😂 😉

This video reminded me of an old friend. She was working in a motorbike store where they had a confusing incident with a Chinese customer. He was trying to ask for the lisence plates to have the 666 number on and would shout SIX SIX SIX in the middle of the store. Everybody freaked out but eventually another Chinese person, speaking fluently Greek helped to resolve this little misunderstanding.

CANTONESE VERSION PLEASE!!!! :D

0:08 😂

6 is my favorite number. My birthday is June and 6 shape looks smooth and even number.

I miss when Carmen says "don't forget to click the subscriiibe bottooon" and "thanks for watching, see you later" :'( But I have to say that I love Mia too :D

I knew about 1-9 but didn't know about 13 and 14. Thanks guys!

I got married on April 4th 2004 at 4PM.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 No wonder you don't see Chinese driving RAV 4.

0:13 haha i thought dan was going to say that it's ten, like in chinese hand gestures :P

Mista's not gonna like this

current staying in a HK hotel.. no 4th floor,, no room no. 4.. that explains it.

8 is my lucky number as well since I was born in August. Besides it's the month named after the first Roman Emperor so it's a pretty good month to have been born in. Oh, and I was born at year 88.

My nickname 4tje is Dutch for 'little 4' (because the pronunciation of 4 in Dutch is similar to the first syllable of my name). However, my favorite number has always been 8, since it's a number that comes back in the family birthdays. So I guess.. 4 and 8.. means I'm just a simple mortal? ;P

She's pretty too! Greetings from the Netherlands.

At the end I miss the "Don't forget to click the subscribe buttoooonnn~~" ;) 

my doctor, who's cantonese, used to have an office number that was 444 xD seems like a pretty bad luck number for a doctor lol

I like Chinese very much. But when I saw this video, I cried a lot because my birthday was on January 4, 2004. I am from India. I like everything about China.If I go to China,people there will think I'm bad.They treat me badly.Please tell me.please please

Dang!! My weight when I was born was 7 pounds 11 ounces!

Yes

My students in Taiwan always say 170....1 (upright and standing) 7 (hunched over) 0 (in the ground)...anyway it makes more sense when you do the numbers with your hand...that talks about death....

my favorite number growing up 4 in Cantonese

My youtube video when it was 44% uploading it froze

I love the number 8!

你們好! In this video you said July is 鬼月, but isn't it August? I'm just a 老外, so I may be not noticing something. :-) 我愛你們的短片!

her skin just glows

COOL! but 3 and 7 and 4 and 5 are still my lucky numbers, anyway

I was told the number '13' is actually considered lucky, because 福 is written with 13 strokes. But I also agree with y'all's assessment that the summation of 1 and 3 gives DEATH :)

A lot of buildings don't have any floors contain the number 4, and in shanghai there is no 13&14th floor. Lol

108 is a fab number as well because in cantonese it sounds akin to certain wealth: 一 定 發

the fact that i was born with no. seven on a month i now know why i love seven month lol and become angry easily

about 7 as far as I remember in Cantonese it sounds like di.. male intimate organ :) and in Internet slang 689 means 'no di... male intimate organ' :)

Wait so if 4 is unlucky and 13 is unlucky, what about 22 and 31 (since they both add up to 4 also), are they unlucky as well?

Why am I the only one thinking of Homestuck watching this? It's taking over my mind! T.T

Wow, 8-17 is also my birthday! :D

I was so scared when you said that about the number 7 since I'm born in July 12 D:

Any number with the number 8 is my lucky number 8 to me =❤

I was born in the "death" month :C

2 things really scared me a lot

You should go to 3:18 😂

My Chinese teacher showed this in class, and she freaked out when I told her about my birthday. I was born on March 28th at 8:08, I weighed 8.8 pounds, and they had to do some tests on me to make sure my breathing was ok. My results for that test came back as 8888. Yay!

My birthday is on the 28/06!!

Shísì also sounds like death death. Always wondered why 10 (shí) isn't an unlucky number

What the heck?! I was born on 4.4.-88 so it's like the worst and the best of luck!

Wait. Isn't "Longevity" 寿 (Shou)? I guess by the "Longevity" sounding similar to 九 would be 久 (Long period of time)

i was about to say how weird it is that 4 and death sound basically the same than i remembered english has "there, their, and they're" funny how all languages have they're own little quirks

4 is also unlucky in korea and you would be considered to become a restless ghost if you died during anytime with a number 4. Also just adding in that my personal lucky number is 3.

One of the luckiest Chinese numbers is 108 for the 108 heroes and heroines of Liang Shan. (From Shui Hu Zhuan, Water Margin)

Question if I were to meet someone from China they asked me what my birthday is and I tell them 777 what's my birthday is 777 would that what I be considered a bad person?

.....laughed so hard at the 4 part.....my friend made me read a chinese(or taiwanese..not 100% sure) manga...and there was a joke involving the number 4....manga was 1/2 prince....also.....this was interesting *subscribes*

I'm in p4 my row of my seat is 4 my best friend is 4 seats away from me and my tuition is on Thursday and also my tuition starts at 4.00 means death death death death death

she's so pretty!

The cellphone number I got here in HK has two times the combination of '54', which I think was made purposefully to mean '無死', which is something like to NOT die I think?? (So, in this case the number 5 is quite useful!) Of course, if one wants a cellphone number with many 8's here in HK, one has to pay for it ;)

Lol my birthday is August eighth, aka 8/8! My parents were happy I was born that day lol

Thats funny, I was born 9.9.1997 :) feeling lucky

My favorite numbers are 167 and 5354!

Me and Dan have the same birthday

well, thats cool...My birthday is on the 14th :O

I was born on 03/03/08 at 11:18 AM. Guess I am lucky in a life!!

My favorite number is death...Oh well. :D

in our SocieTy nr 4 is The nr of Luck

does Mia still appear on this channel? does anybody know?

I kind of think that 5, 7, and 9 are lucky numbers for the Chinese, cause in ancient China the emperor was often referred to as "九五之尊", which kind of means "the royal nine five" or something like that. And also if you speak ancient Chinese or Cantonese or Hokkien, you would know that the pronunciations for "five" and "nothing" are actually different. "Five" is "ngo, ng, or go", while "nothing" is "mo" or "bo".

There is a taxi company with lots of 4's in their phone number lol where I live.

Maybe 0 corresponds to wealth in that as you have more money there are more zeroes in the amount like 100,000 or 10,000,000???
