Personally, I think a rabbits foot is less of a lucky talisman and more animal cruelty
Cheshire Cat 5732 Which is why Watchmojo does NOT endorse rabbit murder.
@@kanjigodomo9696 Yeah, right..
I agree.
You need to realize that it was at a time when people had to Hunt for food and Any meat was better than none

Be careful with using any “lucky charm”. It could be that your mind will get psychologically used to it and when you lose it you will always feel like bad things will happen. If you DO NOT use ANY charm then you are likely to always feel like either you control the events, or that some events are entirely outside of your power.
I managed to find two four leaf clovers growing right outside my apartment door a few months ago :0 now they're in a magnet on my fridge lol. I have several of those symbols/charms around my unit, but for whatever reason, I find that my Eye of Horus pendant my Dad brought over from when he went to Egypt on business gives me most of my luck. Can't have a bad day when I wear it.
My mother loves elephants and every year I get her one, plushy ones, glass ones, ceramic ones, wooden ones, photos as long every one has it’s trunk turned up.
there is NO WAY that I'm carrying a poor bunny's chopped off foot! that's just cruel!
they r usually already dead lol
omg watch mojo?😱i love your videos!😘
Fantastic !! 👍👍👍👍☺😊😘
A few others worth mentioning
Baku statuette (Japanese) - works basically the same as the dreamcatcher (it will eat your bad dreams)
Piece of hide from a Dhobar-Chu (Irish) - probably impossible to get, given that Dhobar-chu's (giant magic super otters) probably don't exist, you'd need a silver bullet to kill one, and whoever kills it will die in 24 hours (so make sure whoever does the hunting is someone you don't like) but if you can get one, you are supposedly immune from ever getting wounded by a weapon, having your horse fall under you or buck you off, and any ship you sail on becomes unsinkable.
Also in our family (for reasons similar to the clover one) we believe that walnuts with 3-4 seams (rather than the usual two) are good luck
Being an avid horse lover and also half Irish, the horseshoe is the perfect charm for me.
I have 4 Maneki Nekos 3 with the left paw raised and one with two paws raised
How crazy is it that Andrew LUCK was drafted by a team with a horseshoe for a logo
Only 2 days ago I've bean researching about the oposite, symbols of bad luck~ Make a top 10 ! XD
the Lucky charme of japan, SOOO CUTEEE 😍
I've found 5 4-Leaf Clovers. 1 or 2 every year, but mostly 1 :)
3:35 OMG! I have that flower one and a pink and yellow one of those cats! And I don't mean like I have a maneki Neko I mean exactly that one!
The symbols on the countdowns are the ones I already know.
Do a top ten symbol of bad luck.
My mom had elephants all over the house growing up. Didn't work.
6:10 if logic happened there I would have yelled "WTF ARE YOU DOING YOU COULD SHATTER YOUR SKULL DIVING HEAD FIRST INTO A SOLID"
i've found a 4 leaf before, and it helped
I consider it a lucky symbol whenever Watchmojo uploads a video actually worth watching.
Zod's Snapped Neck spot the difference please😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😬😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀
Jan khan *Yawn* The 8th one.
Fabulous dreamcatchers. Native american ancestors must be so proud.
my freind had a whole field of genuine four leaf clovers so she gave one to everyone in our class
Alright now you have to make top 10 bad luck symbols
I have a Maneki Neko. It has its right paw raised.
I have 2 daruma and 4 maneki neko ^^
I found a 4 leaf clover once.... I got bad luck that day.....
HarryWessex I remember I always used to go outside and look around outside my house for one but I never found one despite how many we had growing
Aaron Hanson They're everywhere, where I live. I remember, I was 9, I found one in park. I was so excited
+Lemme Peeka Chu (MemeKachu) lmao xD

God is amazing and he is listening to our prayers and send us blessings 🙏🙏❤️❤️🙏🙏
I was surprised #1 wasn't the WatchMojo.com Logo.
i have a glden lucky cat i love it
I thought that the rabbit foot would be first.
what about thw Portuguese rooster, a man bet on a rooster yelling at dawn to prove his innocence before being sentenced and when morning came the rooster yelled so loud everyone in the kingdom heard it
Well a cat who is waving his hands is a goodluck while the blackcat is a badluck
I love horse shoes!

Coins are lucky in my opinion if they were made before the year 1899

How about shooting/falling star? It is believed that when you see a shooting star, you should make a wish and it will come true.
Good shit

I have my keycain jaguar Kaneki as my Lucky charm.
my bf made him and gave him to me.
Hearts, Stars, and Horseshoes, Clovers and Blue Moons, Pots of Gold and Rainbows, and Red Balloons!
Clovers & shamrocks are actually different plants, though apparently the 4-leaf variants of either are lucky. Clovers have oval-shaped leaves & produce comparatively larger white flowers which turn purple w/ size & age. Shamrocks have heart-shaped leaves & produce tiny yellow flowers. At least, that's how I've always understood it. The terms are commonly (& erroneously) used interchangeably, & there is AT LEAST one alternative name for the shamrock additionally, which I can't think of just now off the top of my head.
Culturally, they're different, too, as the clover is associated w/ England, whereas the shamrock is associated w/ Ireland. If you're North American, fear not, as both grow wild on the North American continent - often in the same areas.
2:57 that painting its actually depicts the death of Buddha.
The red thread is used in Mexico to stop hiccups from the babies. On the other hand, in Jewish Kabbalah it’s also used in wrist to stop bad energies.
The laughing budha scares me alot I just have a serious fear of statues.
Had a rabbits foot didn’t even work
Hon the Irish 🍀
The rabbit's foot didn't do any good in Simpsorama
Daruma doll kokeshi doll and maneki Neko seems cute until i saw the movie as the god will
I always wanted a four-year clover.... but never found one.
I've seen other people with them, as a child, but the never bothered to share. :'(
I found one once.
I lost it.
1:7 Nepal 😍😍
Happy windmill of friendship?
what a coincidence, I bought a three legged frog yesterday for money!
How come this video, like many others in the past, doesn't appear in the "Video" section? You just have to come across it by chance?
When it showed number 7 for good luck I saw my iPad on 37% XD
I found a 6 leaf clover and I had bad luck all day lol
In Brazil we hang garlic on the walls.

If the four-leaf clover isn't number one I'm killing myself
8:35 I SEE MY HUSBANDS

7's the key number here. Think about it. 7-Elevens. 7 dwarves. 7, man, that's the number. 7 chipmunks twirlin' on a branch, eatin' lots of sunflowers on my uncle's ranch. You know that old children's tale from the sea.
does that mean a eye in a heptagon is more powerful than an eye in a triangle
You also forgot a *Black Cat's Bone*
what about the black neko's luck do ?
:Awesome possum
yayyyy
6 pence in the shoe of a bride. One of the origin stories as to why horse sure are lucky is because St. Dunstan who was a blacksmith had the devil call on him one day. He realized that he was the devil because he saw his hooves so he grabbed him by the nose and shod the devil and the devil couldn't enter a home where there was a horseshoe over the door. As for 4 leaf clovers my best friend always finds them can't take her anywhere where there is grass and she doesn't look down and find one... thing is she has shit luck.
In Germany it gives you luck in your marriage if all your friends and family come together the evening one day before the marriage and destroy dishes.
Then the couple that is about to get married has to clean everything together.
We believe that shards bring you luck and the noise will distribute the evil ghosts.
i love my maneki neko nwn
I found a 5 leaf clover
Who would have thought keeping a coin in your pocket would keep you from being without money...
