- Myself, @baldandbankrupt and @TimKyoutube headed south in Vietnam but in order to get there we had to take an overnight sleeper train. It was for 14 hours and cost $50, would you take this train? 🇻🇳

my time in Vietnam is nearly over...any questions on my time there? or any questions in general?
ask away 😎
Who’s the worst snorer? Bald or Tim
Do you personally know Simon Wilson? 🤔
Why you guys never once visit a night bar or karaoke Bar? Add some entertainment instead always "we go to bed". Your audience is not pensioners
Should have sent my question here first, had an egg coffee yet or tried balut? Would make a great video 😂
Ben is not answering lads
That snoring had me in stitches 😂 don’t think I could of handled the train at all… it’s definitely not the polar express 😃
rough night mate hahaha
@@BackpackerBen How the hell can someone snore like that, that doesnt sound healthy
@@BackpackerBen Don't you guys pack earplugs?
@@Ostarrichi996 I’d rather sleep in the corridor 😃
Worst Snorer Ever 😂
I have to say, I normally watch Bald, but I'm realizing now that Ben's vids are so well done, the editing and everything. Very artistic and the comedic timing is spot on. I'm subscribing.
Cheers James! I do try
Ben is a rising star 😁
Well, let's see how it goes.
True about the editing, I was just taking videos of my travels not thinking that I would someday Vlogg on youtube, but now I've got a go pro and DJI with gimble so now I have to work on my editing! i hope to get a lot better!
@@BackpackerBen The last time I saw a hat like that it was being worn by a light bulb.
Aw man that snoring had me in stitches. I'd lose my patience pretty quickly🤣.
That train was bloody luxury compared to the one I went on 10 years ago. The toilet consisted of just a hole in the floor back then.
hi Vietnamese here, I've been on this type sleeper train before. I went on a school trip with my class and the coach we were in only had 4 beds per cabin, so it was more peaceful and it's definitely better to be in one with people you know than random strangers. also the black knob above the outlet is the announcer volume control, I also messed with it on our trip cuz me and my mates thought it was to adjust the AC....
we were all bombarded with train stop announcements the whole night. though I'd travel on it again, it's pretty fun to go with a big group and book a whole coach for your group.
the toilet there is definitely not fun.
I once flew business class (!!!) from Beijing to Frankfurt by a Chinese airline, and a drunk Chinese businessman in my row was snoring just like that for the entire flight. He passed out as soon as we got in and began roaring mad. The crew apologised but ignored all our pleas to wake him up. His wife kept smiling apologetically but did absolutely nothing to stop his snoring. Good thing I had noise cancelling earphones, had to sleep while blasting music into my ears… I still don’t understand why the crew chose to let him go like that for 12 hours straight.
You. should have taken matters into your own hands and woke him….his useless weak wife probably too used to it.
That sucks in business class even haha
@@gappuma7883 well would be worse if it was in economy
@@amossutandi why business is super expensive wouldn't you want to relax then
@@gappuma7883 yes, but you should not be able to relax if you're the one who snores? Anyway I'd still rather pay 3 times the price of an economy seat to be in business with a snoring person in the cabin than economy without.
That man who was snoring needs to see a doctor felt really sorry for you all
Sounds like a bull bellowing 😂
I don't know why you guys don't travel with earplugs. It's safe enough to use them since you're in a safe country and not solo. The malleable silicone ones for swimming are the best. Literally the third thing of things to bring for me when traveling after passport and credit card.
you and Mr. B are such a comical dual...... i can't get enough...
Oh my! LOL It's hilarious to think what must have been going on inside Bald's head while that guy was snoring!
You definitely should have gone for the sleeper bus not the train hahaha - the snoring bit had me in stitches 😂 The sleeper buses in Vietnam are amazing
Train are not bad If you are not being cheap , go for the 4 bed more expensive but it great if you are in group of 3 or 4 , here they just being cheap and op for 6 bed room 😂
A great video, thank you very much! I remember those sleeper trains in Vietnam well. If you buy your tickets earlier the same day, or the day in advance, you can by chance get the lower bunk beds. In summer season sleeping in the upper ones can be really torturing. For travels I always take earplugs and eye-covers with me, as the snoring or the keep-the-lights-switched-on roommates are more than abundant throughout the world.
I fell on the floor laughing at that guy's snoring 😂
Wow that was the strangest snore I’ve ever heard. Lol. I never would of slept either. Beautiful hotel 😊😊😊
Thank you Ben for the adventure
thanks Marie for tuning in!
I'm a brit like you and HAVE travelled around India. UFFF exciting BUT scary at times
is that snoring sound real? goodness. ive now watched all three of your perspectives. what a trip
I've been watching from Mr. Bald's video's but looking at things from a different angle is cool. I'm a subscriber now. Thanks for doing this Backpacker Ben.
Yes I agree. But bald is a smart ass. I love them all teamed up.😂
@@PJL7095 Bald just understands that these people are not western lefty liberal arts majors that gets offended by anything and everything.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
You the man Ben!!!! Glad I found your channel!!!!!
Much love from NJ USA!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Awesome! Thank you!
lol That was snoring? Sounded like someone yelling in their sleep lol Not sure how you made it through that!
Loving these Vlogs in Vietnam Ben, hoping to get over there soon, keep up the great work mate.
Appreciate it mate
Hi Ben. What a train ride! glad to watch and let you guys ride! Great job with the vid Ben! Take care my friend. Otto from Florida USA
Unbelievable. I'm a super super light sleeper. This would be pure torture. You lads are amazing for doing this adventure!
That snoring was almost bad as the toilet LOL !!😅😅😅🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
Was on that same type of old school sleeper train in Vietnam. Had the top bunk also and froze all night from the AC. Also thought the train was gonna go off the tracks at times, had to hold on to the bar so I wouldn’t fly off the bed.
😂 mental
Indeed 😂 😂 😂
Southeast Asia experience indeed
That snore cracked me up. Never heard anything like that.
Omg that snoring. I woke my wife up laughing my ass off. I couldn't stop.
That guy was legit sawing logs…with a chainsaw. 😮😂
Great content Ben love watching you and Bald together cracks me up, that snoring tho is brutal as haha
Nothing like my private sleeper on my trip out to Portland ,OR. Thats quite a climb to the top, but interesting. That snoring could wake the dead.
Backpacking rule no 1: make sure you have earplugs with you at all times
Really enjoying your Vietnam vlogs Ben pity about the rain though 👍X
I seriously think that the trio of you should have a deal and make a common travel series. Its enjoyable and entertains as well. I do like the individual vlogs, but a combined TG style will surly be a hit.
Not with Tim...
I agree not Tim.
@@michaelahass2695 Tim is good too
@@gappuma7883
Well..maybe ! Depends on one's taste, values..etc etc...
Thank you for adding the subtitles, I could hardly understand Bald and Tim.
Hilarious trio 😆
You should do some trips with Harald Baldr that would be top notch content!
Stay safe
That snoring can't be real life can it! That man was in absolute agony!!! 😅
Great vid 👍
Are u doing Cambodia next
"It stinks of piss everywhere, but it was a good sleep." A most improbable combination.
😂
My first Backpacker Ben video ever and you knocked it out of park! When that snoring hit I literally lost it cracking up so hard in disbelief. 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😱😱
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@BackpackerBen I’m binging now. Great audio, man! Best one I’ve heard in a while. I’ll have to find out what cam you’re using.
Osmo Pocket 2 ;)
There might be some wild cow by mistake that came into the train and slept beside you guys...lol..that could really trigger a panic attack
Mate, we know you earn more money with 10min vids, but they are to short.... Make em longer! Greetings from Switzerland!
Three people on a horrific sleeper train at $50 each, or $150. For about twice that, you could have pooled your funds and hired a private car with a driver. You would have been able to travel during the day, make stops, see sights and film more content. You could have made some of the money back by staying in a somewhat less swanky hotel in Nha Trang. There are probably some far cheaper places near the beach. I lived in Vietnam for 10 years and always ate cheap and saved money on lodgings. But I would never take their buses or trains which are all levels of awfulness, as you experienced. Always hire a car.
Easily the worst snoring from hell I've ever heard in my life.
So glad you do stuff like this Ben. So I NEVER have to. 😂
I came across this video after watching Bald and Bankrupt. I liked your style Ben so i subscribed.
I went on an Indian sleeper train and the toilet was just simply a hole where you could see the ground whilst the train was moving. The journey wasn’t that bad mind you.
india has some brutal ones! lol
@@BackpackerBen True and I can fairly say that Vietnam and India both eagerly competing for the 2022 worse public toilets championship
@@BackpackerBen haha i am vietnamese and i have to admit that vietnamese trains are very bad, the price is more expensive than going by plane but long time , only suitable for the distances of about 200km and shorter if there is no choice other
@@niken5822 was overpriced!! I agree
Snoring 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I never laughed so much he was like a wild bear 🤣🤣🤣🤣 lol
6:00 - Those are not snores. Gruntzilla!
Added in or not, the snoring had me tearing up laughing!!!! And those hats are awesome! I've got one and wear it hiking, fishing etc. Light, good shade and doesn't make your head sweat!! But yeah, people laugh seeing me wear it!
Glad you enjoyed! Yeah was added 😂
I’ve seen this from Tim’s pov and now this is great! Found you from Tim’s channel!
Keep increasing the comedy factor and you'll get more subs! Snoring was bloody hilarious.
I have not seen one cat in all these videos of Vietnam. Do they eat them there or what?
😂😂😂😂Oh Ben, your face was priceless😂😂😂😂 The snoring was nuts The song 😂😂😂😂 you poor sods
It's good to see you guys slumming it but surely you can afford a cabin to yourselves!!
we are cheap arses
That's not fun. You need to live the experience! :D
Ya 4 bed cabin is not that expensive , here they just being cheap op for 6 bed , poor Tim have to Jam him self in the 6 bed just to save few dollar 😂
Where's the drama if everything went swimmingly? You can't just do luxury and private arrangements, then you'd have no content.
Interesting train ride. Thanks for sharing your adventure with Bald & Tim.
Pity about the rain. You guys should try again outside the monsoon season. Motor biking through the back country was great video content
It’s not the monsoon season for most of it. That’s June-October.
When are you and Tim meeting up again for another adventure? haha yerr right...
Not Tim...
@@PJL7095 it's definitely a bit tense!
Those bathrooms on that train looked real weathered, I can only imagine
5:28 bloody'ell that sounded like a soviet drujba chainsaw 😂😂
Wait a second Ben Tim is saying that the Train ride is $15 and you are saying that it's $50, what gives?
Great vlogs guys but that weather jesus lol , safe travels lads 👍
Comments don’t appreciate the sound editing mate 😂
hahahah ;)
Hello brother come to Nepal, my regards and best wishes for your trip to Vietnam.
The best train in vietnam 🇻🇳💚😍
That snoring would be funny as hell but also so annoying i don't think I'd be bothered though id be laughing too much 😂
They play that loud music when the train is about to be at the end of the line. It wakes everyone up to get their stuff in order. Makes things go smoothly. Guess its easier than going room by room personally.
“Excited?” “Oh yea”. A man of many words and facial expressions😅
Didn’t you think it was a little strange having a window in that room that you can watch someone taking a shower? Lol.
Hahaha just noticed
Wow, that snoring was crazy, sounded like he was yelling
That train was the worst experience of my life 😂
Those doors clangin and banging was hilarious…. Top bunk …. LoL
That sleeper train is a Bowery flophouse on rails. That kind of adventuring I can live without.
I've just found this older jewel. It's a great one!
Jeez slosh that dude with water. That snoring would do my head in big time 🤣
Class video, that rain puts me off
good tip for loud snoring. close your eyes time your breathing with their snoring and then fade off in to deep paralysis.😂😂
What a pearler. Putting you sleeve over your hand to open the loo door. I do the same 😂. That snoring sounded like a poddy calf. The quote of the video. "It stinks like piss". Just as one imagines it. 😂😂😂😂😂
That snoring is absolutely un-fucking-believable.
Almost as unbelievable as a guy trained to navigate who can't find a coffee shop on a street corner.
We need more double Ben adventures from wherever you damn well please, language barriers be damned.
That snoring sounded like some sort of a cow choking, when you got the hat and said "Idont want it" 😅
Saw your photo in Bamyian again lol 😆 6:04
Did you amplify that snoring? It was atrocious….but hilarious too. Well done for persevering with this trip.
That wasn't the snore that was the sound the monster makes in Lost
Sleep apnea guy is the best 😅
Wow and I can’t stand sleeping in a car on a long road trip 😂😂
Im so sorry for laughing at your peril 😂- but that snoring was like a wild beast , unreal.
Then the music ..🎉 ..oof. 😬
That snoring🤣😂
Luvin it mate!
Ben- did you ever figure out what the national-hymn-y singing was all about? That part was pretty weird; I can only imagine what waking up to that was like. 😅
I have been there and understand how tiring that journey must have been for you. 😅
at 0.23 theres some kind of speaker voice?? i heard it in one of your other videos aswell.. Is it a moped driving around with a speaker??
If there's one thing I've learned from Bald's channel it's that you never take Sleeper trains... anywhere... ever
I routinely do that, but I hire out an entire compartment for myself or my family.
That guy's snore is like straight out of Operation Wandering Soul. 🤣
Thank you for the Video Ben
thanks Hansy!!
Did it a few years ago from Hanoi to Hue..... the train was ok but the noise from the aging rails was a bit of a nightmare!
Best snore ever!
making me look into the eye of a portapotty not once, but twice, is pretty brilliant. you got me dude, good one!!
you scored there for a score mate, damn!!!!
that snoring can't be real surely 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I thought it was Tim nutting out.😄
this man' s snoring to chorus your dream
@5:26 was that a real snore??? Or did you add that sound effect?? Cause GAAAAAAAH-DAMN if it was real, I would’ve woke his/her ass up and told’em to turn on its side and sleep 🤣
