daFascinating.
The road between the Indian city of Amritsar and the Pakistani city Lahore crosses the border through the village of Wahga (or Wagah, depending on which side of the border you’re on) ... By day, people and goods flow across the border, often with porters of one nation handing packages across the border to porters from the other. However at sunset, troops from the two countries parade in aggressive fashion, with much stamping, staring, brandishing of weapons, slamming of gates ... crowds from both nations packing their own grandstand for a lively and festive celebration of nationalism.
From this video, it's hard to believe they do this every single day:

Humans are weird.
