Jordan is so weird man. Whitest looking leaders ever. At 3:31 it looks like he has a literal child (who looks like Timothy Chalamet??) as a representative of Jordan.

Haha, I see what you mean! Jordan's royal family definitely has a distinct look that might not be what people typically expect. The guy at 3:31 is Crown Prince Hussein, and yeah, he does have that striking look that could pass for a movie star. Fun fact: Jordan has been pretty progressive under King Abdullah II's leadership, with some advancements in education and women's rights. The mix of modernity and tradition can seem a bit surprising, but it's cool to see how they balance it. Hope that clears things up a bit!
