Around the world, there are some surprisingly peculiar bans that make you scratch your head. In Basel, Switzerland, a ban on a specific type of chair stems from a desire to maintain peace and quiet. The infamous "noisy chair," known for producing disruptive creaking sounds, faced the ire of the city authorities. Singapore has a ban on chewing gum to maintain cleanliness. Bhutan prohibits the sale of tobacco, and Iran bans certain hairstyles, including mullets, to preserve traditional values. It's a quirky world out there with an assortment of unexpected prohibitions.
