A recent video on Reddit titled "Standards are different in the Midwest" has captured the attention and laughter of many. The video features a humorous anecdote about a man being mistaken for the Hollywood star Jason Momoa while in Wisconsin. The man, clearly amused, recounts how someone told him he looked like Jason Momoa, known for his role as Aquaman. His reaction? "You need to get out of Wisconsin right now. Get out of here. What are you talking about? Are you kidding me? I look like Aquaman? In what world? Only I know what world. Wisconsin."

This comedic moment has resonated with viewers, leading to a flurry of comments and reactions. One user humorously noted, "Ironically does kinda look like what I imagine a Midwest Jason Momoa would look like. King of the sea with a couple tater tot casseroles. Great bit though!" Another added, "Jacked Jason Momoa is overrated. Let's go Midwest Jason Momoa!!!"

The comments continued with personal anecdotes and additional humor. One commenter shared, "Over a decade ago I got told I look like Johnny Depp and I'm still not sure if that was a compliment or not," sparking a debate about which version of Johnny Depp they resembled—The Tourist or Edward Scissorhands. Adding to the fun, another user pointed out, "... but Jason Momoa was raised in the midwest!"

The video also includes a shoutout to the content creator's social media and tour information. The comedian, who can be found on Instagram at @mybudchris and YouTube at Chris Higgins, invites viewers to follow his journey and even join his subreddit r/ChrisHiggins for more updates.

One of the most amusing comments read, "I think he looks a bit like Haley Joel Osment," while another noted, "There’s already a Lake Guy named Jason… Just sayin’." The Midwest's unique charm and sense of humor were highlighted by comments such as "This is actually why I love the Midwest" and "Midwesterns love scruff."

Overall, this video is a delightful example of regional humor and the power of relatable content. The comparison to Jason Momoa, mixed with the Midwest's distinct character, has created a viral moment that many won't soon forget.
