: Conducting Surveys with Preparing Six famous Major Bank Bills Each in the World

If YouTuber Omita wets bank bills with water, will they shrink and be recognized as counterfeit by machines?

Omita has conducted surveys with preparing six famous major bank bills each in the world, releasing a YouTube video on November 6, 2021.

YouTuber Omita once received a 1,000-yen bill as change at a store somewhere in Japan.

He tried to use it later at a beverage vending machine, train station ticket office, supermarket, etc., but all of these machines rejected it at the bill slot, making it completely useless!

Taking a closer look at this bill, you can find crumples which have seemingly been caused when its being wetted with water. It can be guessed that the bill shrank as someone soaked it in water.

Then, Omita was wondering if major bank bills in the world might shrink in water and be recognized as counterfeit by machines, and thought that he needed to conduct a large global survey to find the answer!

We live in a world where even the discovery of a counterfeit bill makes TV news.

People all over the world need to know whether or not their wetted bank bill would shrink and be considered as counterfeit, becoming useless at vending machines, and, in the worst scenario, they could be mistakenly arrested by the police.

If you wet major bank bills in the world (America: US Dollar; China: Chinese Yuan; EU: Euro; India: Indian Rupee; Japan: Japanese Yen; and Russia: Ruble) with water, will they shrink and be recognized as counterfeit by machines?
