  • Six men from the Czech Republic were detained in Astana, Kazakhstan for wearing ‘Borat style’ G-string mankinis while posing in front of the ‘I love Astana’ sign.
  • The men, who also had matching curly black wigs, were clearly trying to emulate Sacha Baron Cohen’s role in Borat. 
  • Authorities did not take to the joke, and so the men were detained for ‘hooliganism’, and each fined 22,500 Tenge (approx AUD$90). 
  • At the time of the mockumentary, the Kazakh people did not take kindly to their portrayal as backward, degenerates.
  • However, the country’s Foreign Minister later told Parliament that the film did wonders for the nation, with the number of visas issued by the Government growing tenfold. 
  • The full title of the film was Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan).
