The WP article on the city of Pushkar, India, has a section titled Tourist attractions which includes a mention of Baba Sen, the masseur in the above video.

In 2008, Burnie Burns and Gavin Free of online entertainment and production company Rooster Teeth saw a YouTube video of an Indian man performing a cosmic head massage. Watching the video triggered an ASMR, or automated sensory meridian response, experience for them both, and the two became incredibly fascinated with this man, Baba Sen — known as the “cosmic barber.” Over the next eight years, Burns and Free continually discussed the phenomenon of ASMR — an experience of a relaxing sensation triggered by many things such as whispered voices — and hoped to be able to get a head massage from Baba one day.
Those jokes of traveling halfway across the world for something that would last ten minutes suddenly became a possibility with the company’s two-part documentary “World’s Greatest Head Massage: An ASMR Journey.” Directed by Mat Hames, who also helmed Rooster Teeth’s last documentary “Connected,” the film follows Burns and Free as they travel to Pushkar, India to try and find the legendary Baba Sen.
For the same creative brains behind online series “Red vs. Blue” and feature film “Lazer Team,” it comes as no surprise that the documentary is loads of fun. As the two prepare for the journey and then traverse a new country, we see the personalities and humor of Burns and Free shine in their rapport and their hilarious commentary on what they’re about to do. As they get hit with the “wall” of humidity in India, Burns asks Free, “Do you feel like you’re sitting in 108 degrees right now?” to which Free responds, “Well, I feel wet…so yeah.” Its playfulness is infectious.
