World's Most Dangerous Roads: Congo
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 23 พ.ค. 2019
- When Congo gained independence, it had the best road network in Central Africa. However, the condition of the roads has declined drastically and now only 2% of the roads are paved. During the rainy season, many parts of the country become a muddy swamp.
This series has one of the best lectors I have ever heard. He adjusts to changes in intonation, speaking tone etc. Very natural. Great job!
Indeed !......the translator ( narrator) does such a good job ! ...very British also....
@@PAULLONDEN respect to this man With@show me the world .They have more in one.
Peter Enola tf is a lector+
I could swear it's the same narrator who did Begin Japanology hosted by Peter Barakan.
Yes he does, He definitely knows how to adapt 😂
The best shows are the ones in Africa, the people are so dynamic and full of life while their circumstances are the worst. They show me how to be at peace. May Allah bless Africa ameen
These videos make me realize how bless I am.. Many blessings to Congo and its people.
I agree, I watch these and the most dangerous ways to school or something similar on the Free Documentary channel.
It’s so sad to see how hard these people have it. I believe everyone should have to watch these, especially here in America. We are so wasteful and greedy here, it’s truly sickening.
I’m not saying everyone of course, but unfortunately there’s more ungrateful people than there are grateful, at least imo it seems that way.
Chasing the dollar is more important to most people than helping and loving one another.
How blessed are you
You aren't blessed!
What you don't realize it's places like this that make were you live, leviable. Without the stolen resources from places like this, you wouldn't be where you live now and the people who live where you live now would be eating each other.
True
Can we stop and appreciate that guys handwriting. My gawd its perfect.
IVECO should pay this guy a fortune.
This is the maximum advertising you can ever get.
YES!!!
This narrator is a champ 😂👍👍
He is the best part of the episodes. His upward inflections and range of emotions whils translating is second only to Felix DeJesus from the boxing world. "Share out the sugar cane!!!"
Karma... Eugene shud have paid the poor woman for her food.
Thts Exactly what I jesed said. KARMA IS A BITCH & THTS WHT HE GETS! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Spoiler alert!
S'boniso Qwabe I hope those rude asses came to the same conclusion.
That is why Africa is poor.. Everyone trying to steal from each other.. They had money and still stole.
The driver ‘Domingo’ is sooo arrogant ...throwing the wreck and mistreating the workers...he needs to be checked. And shame on you Eugene for not paying for their meals (a few cents I’m sure) 🤦🏽♀️
I just saw an ad for a 2019 ford truck and it was bragging how it can handle tuff terrain...I would love to see them advertise in Congo
It would actually do pretty well. The vehicles these people in the Congo have are shit.
ylekiote99999 yeah, the fancy cars are exclusively for the rich. 90s cars for the middle class, and if your a poor average Joe, a bicycle or motorcycles
Geelcarbt
Only Toyota has the bragging rights for that.
Ford seriously 😐 ...Toyota is the best
Africa ,is blessed with resources but cursed with leaders.
we cry every day
Lo Pol
Lo ñ lol lol lo lo
Pollo
INDEED
Don't elected those asshole simply u people from Africa don't give no one voted
But I believe "THE LAST SHALL BE FIRST IN THE END". Stay strong with the hearts of lions and God is watching. He is watching! God bless all of these men and their families.
for the last thousands of year watching 😂
keep watching its almost here my friend.By 2030 africa will not be the same as today.
This video exemplifies the courage and innovated mindset of Africans ✊🏿
Salute to the camera guy all those who works to make this trip a a success

Congo, one rich country underneath but the poorest. I pray one day they will wake up and manage their natural resources that has continued to benefit western world.
It's the leadership. Don't blame the west. These people don't even have any roads connecting their cities. That is the governments problem.
Of course a Wachira had to blame the west, your blind self can't even see the Chinese. Stupidity is inborn
The eastern world benefits aswell.
@@hilldoggydogg635 So true. If the Europeans leave entirely, it wouldn't be long before the Africans would be begging for them to return.
@@wefukthenwoCaucasian and supremacy. You white people think you are superior lol. I just wish African leaders we reasonable enough we would have avoided such derogatory comments from you
Beautiful documentaries. Thank you so much for bringing humanity together through the lance of a camera. To the narrator, you are the best.
We want the final part of the journey towards the destination and want to see how that goes.... Nice work 👍
DOMINGO ,ni mwanahume . Driver wa kweli kweli !
Mungu a ku barika ,Bwana DOMINGO .
I’m from neighboring Zambia but I think I can understand this language. Let me try to translate it( I stand to be corrected by Congolese people)
“DOMINGO is a man. A real real driver. May God bless you Mr DOMINGO“
@daniel ndungutripp no we don’t. I was just trying to guess so please confirm if I’m correct
am from Africa but Congo just take Africa to the next level,,.... am proudly Kenyan and i can deal with corrupt politicians but better roads
Waa kwanza kiswahili iko kwa hii documentary
the quistion is have u traveld kenya like been all over the country not saying your wrong its just a quistion as i am from london and most londoners have never been more then 50 miles away unless there travling to a diffrent nation belive it or not i know people who have been on every continent expecpt antartica yet have never been to the north of england or even the midlands ive been to a far amount of diffrent countrys but still have not seen most of this nation and ive seen more and know about more then most londoners
We need part 2 of this documentary, the tales of Domingo.
Yes we do
He should start by paying his tab to that poor woman.
He’s that good on those roads then he’s unstoppable on America road

That's freakin awesome!
It's almost like they're happy the person has passed away, but in actuality it's another way of grieving. That's awesome.
Yes and when someone is born they actually cry & grieve; very interesting concept as they say that when one is born they have entered a world of trials and suffering and when some one dies they are now entering or “returning” to their true homes with eternal happiness... This tradition and outlook is shared by several different TRIBAL cultures and indeed is quite fascinating
JBsBS i guess; they believe that Earth is a hell and death means u are free now! Love a life dude, and let’s celebrate!
It took 9 days to complete 250 kms? and still 400+ kms to go? omg. There is no place on the earth that would take this time. God bless you people.
my country took 5 years to build a 14 km road

@@tyagrajan555 tanzania. We have these contruction issues there till the president or his cabinet have to act. People are lazy and they delay these projects just to steal more money from the government
This is so sad 😭 meanwhile their leaders are flying on private jets and waste money on bullshits 😭
Oh you mean politicians acting as usual 👎 I truck here in the USA but like watching what the field is like throughout the world things look very tough over there 😧
Stop crying
You mean those International Multinationals
you think its different in other places,you live in a different universe
Politicians are demons. They fund their lavish lifestyle ignoring their voters.
Some of the best damn driving skills I've ever seen in my life!
Hands up to the report, he has gone a long way just to make this marvelous video
Great job for Congolese leaders. You must be proud of your work. Congolese leaders are the poorest in Spirit God will judge you well!!
These channel have really good contents. They deserve million subs!!
Just great. Thanks for making this. Having been to Africa four times you get used to the insanity and pretty soon you're just like the locals; nothing bothers you. You just keep "MacGyvering" problems until something works. Time is unimportant.
I enjoyed the interpretation so well.....
What irony. This is the richest country in the world in terms of naturally occurring minerals yet no proper roads. Wake up Africans or perish in poverty due to poor governance.
Now that you have watched this video and made a conclusion, you need to research more about who is owning or governing this country. UN inclusive, this country is being governed by other four or more governments, some african and others from outside of Africa and that's why there's nonstop conflicts. In a way, these minerals are a curse because there wouldn't be anyone interested in this country if it wasn't so rich in minerals
Love all your documentaries
It is most interesting and I enjoy watching them so much
Thank you ❤️
Amazing! These men are the toughest human beings I have ever seen. The camera guy is unbelievably tough too.
it would be cool to have a top truck contest on this road. Seeing the best off road vehicles here would be cool
imagine jeremy clarkson and friends doing this journey in these trucks .... lol nostalgia here
The Grand Tour - Mozambique Special
bet they would do it if it was piched to them
Indeed its just a beautiful vdo....would like to see more vdos of these type of journey.....thank you so much once again for letting us know about congo s ....situation....
We need a united Africa. The sooner we do that the better. We can't go on like this.
The politicians are the demons in our midst.
I love this story teller, I love how brave he's. I now know much about Congo despite the fact I haven't been there.
*he is not
You know nothing bout congo ,young man
Welcome to Africa
Love Africa till death
Great narration!!!
I'd never have believed this..... with this wonderfully shot documentary I now do...✌️
What a journey ...👍Great adventure as well
Seriously?? Adventure??
I love this channels documentary. It has all translation even when singing in foreign

The suspension got broken because of the curses from the lady who wasn't paid for her food service.
I just love the narrators voice hes very humorous too .
Rubbish
Great post, I wish things were easier for these people, this is awful😣
The narrator is doing a good job! The roads are bad but the place is so beautiful,green and fresh air!
These are my brothers much❤ from Ghana
Always enjoy watching your channel ✌️... mentally I was in the journey with your guys 😁.... really a long journey
You are just here to earn more subs, go away
To those who keep on boasting about their SUV in You Tube, bring it here!!!
sorry, i dont have a big enough brodozer to be congo compliant. in fact, a tank would get stuck too. an arctic cat (those things that groom ski slopes) might actually work, if you can keep the tracks on in all that mud and rocks.
john donovan you seen the SHERP (yes I know it’s a stupid name) but that thing is insane in off-roading. It’s not meant to carry cargo though
@@windoak2113 the sherp is basically another take on 1930s vehicles where the vehicle is basically just the tires. americans did it, russians did it. and now its being sold commercially., its nothing new nor revolutionary.
john donovan eh, still pretty cool though
@@windoak2113 yeah but its very limited in its use. which is why the original projects are still rotting in the arctic abandoned
I know the Congo roads well. Even this road. Rainy season it is a mess, dry season, not much better. MAN 6X4 we made it through but had to tow many trucks out of trouble to get through. It can take 2 weeks to do 5km. Fun!
Congo, one rich country underneath but the poorest. I pray one day they will wake up and manage their natural resources that has continued to benefit western world.
🤣🤣🤣Congles pridents are sturbon
Forget about roads
But please tell me about ladies
Is it easy to make friendship with ladies
I heard Congo females are very pretty and gorgeous

@@gulabsinghsingh7248 I was wondering the SAME DAMN THING. It's rare to see some super cute ones, but damn when you see em, its like, "would they fck me?' Hah.
I really hope sumtime soon these people could make it out form there..or some kind off help for better roads ,they all have to team up and fight for better ..🙏👍💯🖤
Different life different vibe.
I like it . Greetings from Brooklyn NY 🍎
This is the most sad side of life ....
We are too lucky and blessed when compared to these people
Yes, blessed with brains, grit & determination.
Eugene will never get another meal from that lady,,,,not a good thing when there is nothing else out there,,,
Agreed. He's so stingy. He only thinks of himself and his money ill-gotten from gullible passengers. He had the taste of Karma later when his truck got broken ha ha! Sweeeeet delicious KARMA..
@@romella_karmey and the passengers got it too.......
Its really amazing see to like this from home all around the world thanks to youtube 😊😍
keep uploading
Yes -- travelled that road many many times - but on past Bukama to Kamina and on to Kipushya in East Kasai. Those were the days - before the roads were in the state they are now. A factor in the deteriation of the road is that they grossly overload the trucks. No rules here. We used to do Lubumabshi to Kamina in one day.
Как с вами можно связаться? По делу
Yea because my husband was a long haul driver,with his own truck, in tge u.s.,ever so often they have to go tru the weight stations..fined if over weight is found..
Why doesn't anyone take the initiative to repair the road? I live in the rural united states, and when the government neglects to patch even minor potholes, people will go out of their way to repair them themselves. Surely some of these businessmen that rely on the roads would have resources to conduct basic repairs.
Such a rugged and dangerous road. Thumbs up to the driver.
Best damn driving skills I've ever seen. Nice video.
Eugene is such a mean and crooked man,with such attitude he will not go anywhere with his business.
So true
Well say
He's too arrogant!
Hate to say this, but, people showed that they are greedy and distrusted. Passengers are treated as assistance, load fees are overpriced. It's not just the government has to change, people have to learn becoming human as well.
The woman is forced to pay for her fare, but they themselves trying to get away not to pay their food. That's the impression it left with this episode. I've watched Nepal and Philippine parts which are footage at the edge of the cliff and the level of danger is much worst, but the driver and people are more human and friendly, respectful and caring. This culture of people from this episode is the opposite. The danger for this documentary is centred only on the truck and not to the people on board.
I thought it was overpriced too until a trip that should be 6 hrs 450 km was expected to take 4 days but took a month. The film crew left after two weeks and couldn't finish the trip. Definitely not overpriced.
It's not a passenger truck. It's a cargo truck. They just let some people sit on the top for a fee and they fed those guys for a month.
Yes I noticed this too. They are not better than us in a way, just less skilled or succesful at this capitalism thing. For better or for worse. I agree with Jon Snow too, but generally there are issues here. Stil for example, the lack of solidarity with the first truck that got stuck But if he helped him he might've goten stuck as well. It's both an individual problem and a systemic problem just like everywhere else. That roads main problem is not its lack of pavement. It's that it's like a channel by now. It's been pressed and pressed downwards with the trucks displacing and pushing down dirt.
All it would take are a few dozers going the full track and flattening or adding some dirt from the sides. But with no taxes and corrupt western and now eastern corporations that corrupt local and national politicians the mining industry isn't contributing much either.
Even that part is quite chocking. I mean how the heck does the mining industry deal with the crappy roads? It would benefit from better ones. It's all a mess.
Very risky for the owners to provide a service, wear and tear on the trucks are very high due to the roads, alot more fuel used offroading, and parts would be expensive. This would be cheaper then chartering a plane
It doesn't matter if this is a truck or bus. This is one of the few options that people have. Watch the two episodes that I've mentioned and compare. God Bless Africa
I love the narrator!
thank you thank you
Very nice and useful channel, I wish it had Arabic subtitles
Salute to story teller you are amazing
Just started watching. Dang these roads are crazy! It’s more dangerous than Baja
Amen
I'm a truck mechanic and im amazed those trucks make it through that
Yeah man, them trucks received a beating on a 'road' that only Moses can.
no you are not - if you wonder what the things you work on daily can do.
Ron Rico I agree amazing I believe these man also have to be mechanic in order to get this type of job because if they truck does break down they would have to fix it themselves.
Every truck in Congo has a mechanic rather than a co-driver. Older trucks expect to break down every two or three days.
Great road and great adventure.... over one weeks for 650km journey
Thanks for. Narrating
The journey was estimated to take 4 days but it took 1 month that a big mis calcution
oh man this was so hilariously unbelievable, imagine getting a ride that promises you 4 days only to take 28 days
Gotta love the narrator. Thumbs up to Domingo.
Super gemacht, great!
Sad as it is, I had a good laugh in places , the guy doing the talking is great.
22:20 What do they expect the driver to do? If there is only so much room where else would they go?
I've been to Lubumbashi and although the roads were not as bad as in this video, I was holding on for dear life cos the roads are so small
Beautiful documentary, they make known paices so far away places the poverty and the experience of working people deaths paices. 👍👍
Greetings from sentro of south America Bolivia.
We are lucky because we didn't experienced this kind of struggles everyday.
God Bless Africa.
is this a road or a river.
I guess it's both
It is worse in Congo but in many African countries just a few Kilometers from the main roads, where most villages are, the situation is exactly like this during wet season. If you have a nice SUV with adventurous spirits, field work to such places is often a fun-ride
hahaha
@ 39:56 that didn't look like the greatest herb but he still hit that like a champ!...
thanks for the upload
"Like a champ" ....seems so......but his bloodshot eyes tell he won't be a champ for long.....
Looked like a painful exercise pumping that rolled with regular paper spliff into his brain ,together with another that probably contained some kind of crack derivative......
@@PAULLONDEN too true, i don't think i'd hit it that hard and i'm canadian :P
if i had to guess i'd say that dagga has some mandrax in it
what a blessed country with full of resources
u ended up focussing more on the miners and cobalt. i think u need a completely different documentary focussing on the mines
Imagine digging for 12 hours every day, to afford a mattress in a muddy shed and some drugs. They don’t have gloves, let alone a basic medical kit. Insanely brave and hardworking guys. They deserve more than this
They should have paid that lady , the truck driver will loose good faith in her eyes he had three hundred plus 100 they gave him , for a dangerous ride in all that sun , I think if they had walk they would have beat the truck there
she should ask to be paid in advance
they said they already spent what they had as they were at this point, a week behind schedule. you get paid after the journey is done. the return is also basically for no money. they haul A - B. you get paid at B. watch the whole thing again, it is explained right at the start!
Nice!! Famous last words... :-)
That's a badass truck !!!
The passengers could have gotten there faster if they had just walked.
I agree. God Bless their Journey!
They have there stuff in the truck that they need to watch over
HAHa You need to go back to maths class! Everyone here who agrees they should of walked. Do your maths!
yeah right, walking alone...you can get easily rob, killed or whatever
You sound utterly stupid
A month to travel 650km?? Here where I live one can make that drive in a little over 5 hours. Shows how good roads are essential for any econometric to develop and thrive
God bless this people, are so positive and problem free
Problem free?
Very good video. Hello from too Ghost. 😀👍👍👍
I'm so why at 43:29 during the film while everybody is celebrating that the truck made it through and how amazing the driver is, during a quick pan of the crowd of everyone cheering there is some really creepy guy just staring at the camera?? Like really starring. It cracked me up cuz it caught me off guard but when I went back to see if again and actually paused it, he is pretty disturbing. Lol
How that truck made it thru that road is beyond me 💀
I am from India I salut you all Afrikaans you challeng to life every day every time 🙏🙏👍👍
