Thanks for watching! WHat is the scariest story that has ever happened to you on the road?!
1st reply let's gooo
almost getting hit by a car
When I was traveling from the city of dhanbad to howrah with some friends we saw a guy on a moterbike and he chased us for 2 and a half hours (it takes 5 hours form dhanbad to howrah) before stopping and we lost him and we still don't know who he was or what his intentions were.
@@lifesucks4950 wait fr?
@@lifesucks4950 damn bruh take care
Norway and North Korea are 1 country apart and this border story is quite scary. The police officers probably thought you were insane to travel to NK lol, Glad you’re safe Drew thanks for sharing
Norway ??
Wtfff? You mean Russia? Lol
@@rocketmansv405 no, NK and Norway both border Russia, so they are 1 country apart. That’s what he means. Like Netherlands and France are 1 country apart
Edit: ok I get they border on St Martin. My bad
Norway being one of the most free and developed countries in the world and North Korea being the least
@@rocketmansv405 Norway AND Russia
I started watching you since 5k Subscribers, now it's 3 million..
Tremendous growth... 🔥
Drew the Explorer
wow really?
@Braty sis chanel 3 It's a phishing website, or an hack don't trust it guys.!
Damn I’ve only been here since 700,000 subs in 2019
I've been watching since the first Africa trip in early 2018(Tanzania to Somaliland)
Traveling alone and through borders do seem scary indeed Drew. Especially in countries where governments don't have the best relationship with your country. But it also looks so cool. Traveling is quite an adventure!
0:42 bruh.. the audacity to visit North Korea AGAIN after you had left it safely.. man
Love this series!!! This particular subject is quite fun in itself but hearing some of your old behind the scenes stories is also a big Part of the charm
Thank you so much!
Drew you are the best
Drew rly is great
Always here on Sunday for fresh content
Keep up the stories Drew
🇰🇪

Whathj country is that'll
@@muffin1927 if u mean the flag its Kenya
@@i5oWasTaken it's the flag of Kenya. I was in a car on a bumpy road and couldn't identify the flag or type correctly.
🇰🇪
Russia and North Korea are no joke! I went to North Korea in 2018 and felt fine as I was on a guided tour but snooping around the borders is a bit crazy!
So many bots 😒. Insane that you went to North Korea though
really?
@@kugul1683 many people visit North Korea
@@joshuacadman8955 Only 5000 'westerners' visit each year, 95k visit from China and I doubt there are many people living in China watching such videos
Yep , couldn’t agree more !
Can’t beat a scary travel story 😬
Lol Dave
@@theSalukie 😆
Man you missed so many good parts of Guinea😭. One of the most beautiful countries in west africa. Im not surprised you experienced lots of corruption when you were driving your own vehicle. Definitely worth going back and seeing the country properly instead of just hopping in
I agree ! Spent weeks there, with the most mannered and polite men I've ever met.
I didn't have to pay a single bribe (maybe cuz I didn't look self-satisfied, eh ?).
@@guillaume8483 what do you mean by "didn't look self satisfied?"
@@nialldean9791 he’s prob black
Where in Guinea is worth going to? I’ve been interested in Guinea for a while now, but I don’t know much about it other than Pygmy hippos
did you see what he and his friend were wearing 😂😂😂😂 those generic dashikis LOL
Just found this channel. Thank you for sharing this amazing content. Even during scary times you remain professional and respectful of the cultures. ❤️
I love how vibrant colors are in this video.Such a scenic view looks great....thank you so much for a wonderful sharing!!!🥰😍
Love the vids Drew! You've inspired me and entertained me throughout the years. I will always watch your vids if I see them.

Scary indeed! Love your videos and enjoy watching your journey!
Thank you for sharing Drew enjoyed your scary stories
Hey Drew, your videos are awesome. I wanted to know if you could make a video of tips for traveling. For example, how do you make friends or find trustworthy people to help guide you through countries such as your Russian friends? How do you stay safe?
Keep this series up!
These are some of my favorite videos too. It shows that things aren't always sunshine and daisy's
Already excited for part 6 😂😂
Love this series, pls keep on!
omg i love this series. more please!!
I’m from Conakry Guinea. It’s unfortunate that I have to agree with you. Last time I visited we got stop every single night by police asking for bribes. Luckily my cousin knew some of them and we wiggled our way out. But yes, extremely dirty and very poor. The people are very kind and welcoming though. And yes we had a coup.
You are the most amazing traveler in the world. Your absolutely amazing
Keep it up and stay safe
Please keep this scary series going
I love these series drew

Drew you’re a legend,that’s it
Just found your channel via searching up South Korea culture videos & happened to pop by this video. I don’t have much travel experience at all… This is very intriguing! Definitely subscribing 😅🌼
Glad you're safe mate🇧🇩🖤
Mexican here, Chiapas is an absolutely wild place. I've never been (unfortunately), but I've heard it can get pretty crazy in some places.
Drew those loud sounds in Mexico are firework mortars, some places use them to wake the whole town up.
hi drew i am a blimd person i cannot see but your vice is such a pleseure lke your video love you
Drew Binsky's TH-cam channel is my favorite of all!
Hey, so I just started watching your channel (better late than never, lol). And I just found out that we have the same birthday! (May 24th). I usually don't; care about stuff like that, but that's kinda cool. I love traveling sooooo much. And I know I'll never be to every single country, I hope to at least go to a few countries in every continent through out my life. Can't wait to binge watch your videos, lol
😑🤨😳😳You are Drew durnil 2.0.
I subbed you.
2:34 that handwriting just impressive! 😳😳👍👍
Great Video 🔥 u got stories for 💯 years...I gotta get there 2 man😎
Your videos make me want to go to these countries
Great sharing my friend what an experience Cuban watching from Newfoundland Canada!
I love you drew binsky, I hope the things with ukraine and the war is okay
More please!!!!
2:36 Amazing handwriting. It’s like you’re in grade 2. Way to troll the FSB.
Andrew you're our hero of traveling 💖
His name is drew not Andrew
Hey drew I’ve been watching your vids since 2019 I love your vids
Omg. I never knew Guinea was like that. I have a friend who moved from Guinea to Australia also back in 2019. Guinea looks so beautiful with the greenery though, just sad how the people have to live like that.
I love your videos so much they are so intresting i sub to You a long time ago😊❤
I can relate to the Mexico thing because it happens a lot and the environment and the surrounding make it feel like an attack is happening I am from Mexico and I visit my town a lot and those same things happen but your right it can make you feel uncomfortable
Drew is a legend
Lol the tone of that apology letter is definitely so "you".
I watched this video 13 minutes after I watched parts 1, 2, 3, and 4. Gonna rewatch it all again once part 6 comes out.
Thank you for traveling to West Africa and showing us what it's like there, so we don't have to.
My scariest moment was when I was in Guatemala when my gall bladder became very inflamed after eating chicarron pupusas from El Salvador that my aunt made the night before. I was in the worst pain of my life and if I had not fasted the two days afterwards I would have probably gone to the hospital or died. Guatemala is also my favorite of eight countries I visited.
i have one word to describe you, a legend
I enjoy these videos
@Livy14 STOP THIS SPREADING YOUR GARBAGE..
Yoooo love it Nice
At 6:16 drew's friend has hindi tattoo on his hand "कर्म" (Karm) means karma, I am so happy to see it
Idk for some reason people add "a" After hindi words when writing in English other examples: karma, asana, yoga, bharat etc
Thanks
I feel you. Some of the most dangerous stories I have from traveling are also the best stories 😎✌🏽
Give us a story will ya?
@@edgararmas5 haha okay. I tried watching the sunrise in Rio de Janeiro Brazil at a location recommended by a friend. The Uber driver only spoke Portuguese. During the drive we saw a stopped car in the middle of the road and the drivers talked about something and he made a gesture of a gun and told us he's driving another way. Then we ended up on a street blocked by multiple police care with flashing sirens. 2 cops walked towards us one holding a handgun and the other a seni-automatic weapon pointed right at us. They pulled the driver out and then opened the back door to look at us. We said we didn't speak Portuguese and they let us drive back home. Ended up watching the sunrise from the beach which was probably just as nice lol
Hi Drew! Love your videos! We are currently traveling through the Chiapas state in Mexico, we've been loving the culture! I just wanted to share that one of the reasons why they are so worried about their privacy is because there are a lot of indigenous communities that function independently of the central gov. They achieved this through a very big struggle that cost the lives of many in their communities, the zapatista uprising. So they try to keep their communities and traditions safe, and they are not very found of tourists for this reason, they are just trying to protect their culture. Hope you found that interesting and hope you can go back and visit Lacandona jungle! is also in the Chiapas state and there is a community there that offers guides to help you navigate the jungle. They are very open to visitors, so friendly. Much love from MX!
Fuzzy hats are also called as Ushanka
Drew: I wouldn't be going back to guinea.
Also Drew: would I be doing that again? Absolutely 🤗
I would love to go to NK someday. Such an interesting country. I’ve watched all your videos about it.
Drew i love the shit you do keep it up man 👍🏻
Interesting and cool vid.
Chamula is now on my top priority travel list mostly because of that Coca Cola worshipping LOL 😍😂 I’d fit right in down there! Always interesting to hear these stories.
Love this video series Drew. I love traveling but it’s not always sunshine and rainbows. Great meeting you in Times Square last September!
Drew whats your favourite country and culture that would make you 100 % go back and visit ?
Drew it would be very cool if you got a poster of every country flag and then throw a dart there and travel where it lands.
Ooooo he should do that
I miss you so much, and Ramadan Kareem, and you're creative keep going✨✨✨✨✨..
Sender: your brother (Baraa) from Palestine
🇵🇸🇺🇸
Drew - I am so happy you were saved from being kidnapped near North Korea!
lots of love from India drew ❤
That Was Scary
You are brave man hey!I have been following your videos and really traveling to some of the countries is scary.Afghanistan,Iraq,Chad,Guinea,North Korea,Venezuela,Mexico,Sudan,Somalia and so forth. I am South African and I am scared to travel in some of the areas in my home country. At least I am feeling a bit safe in a foreign country ESwatini where I live right now
🗺️🤩Sometimes travel solo is not easy, but definitely worth it are you agree?🙃
Do*
Sooo cool
Lol imagine drinking Pepsi in that town.
These are truly nothing events and very minor incidents. It is amazing that in all of your travels that you have not been
1. Kidnapped
2. Robbed of all your equipment
3. Drugged, injured or severally sick.
4. Beat up
5. Imprisoned for a long period of time
6. Lost or stranded
7. Stuck due to visa issues.
To believe that all people are wonderful and enjoy seeing Americans of your religion there is not being truthful.
