00:00Definitely like the shoes on the table. That's a big thing. My mum also is like don't put new shoes on the table

00:05And like walking under the signs as well. There's that as well

00:10I don't really have any superstitions. I don't walk under ladders. That's more of a safety thing. I was told that

00:17a dark at night used to be when

00:21Spirit when I'm in spirit is a people who have passed away in debt will be walking around

00:27So there was a good night I was walking around as a young person I saw my shadow I

00:32Was not too sure that that was my shadows. I was thinking is a dead person that was walking

00:39Beside me. It's my lucky date

00:42So like the number 13 is not like scared me

00:45But what about superstitions? We have the thing like for example if you're going through

00:53One thing that is like you have two friends and one thing that's like staying

01:00in the center of them so and they're walking like in the both sides and

01:06Like this superstition said that's you're gonna argue with your friends and never gonna talk to him

01:10If I lose something I go like that pin the devil and remarkably always seem to find it now

01:16So that's the superstition but the anti one is for a while

01:20I used to deliberately walk on the ladders to prove it didn't

01:24Affect me, but then I realized that's a bad plan because there might be a paint pot or something

01:29I don't believe in superstition. I believe every day is a good day for me. And that's the mindset I work with

01:36I'm a very positive person

01:39Obviously life can be very funny. Sometimes whether it's true or not. I think it's nothing to worry about

01:46I mean most people think the number 13 is well bad luck for some reason

01:53Sam but I think it's just you know a coincidence

01:57It's whether people believe it or not
