Looking for trouble in Ethiopia 🇪🇹 vA 46

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ก.ย. 2024
- I walk to Arat kilo to have a great Ethiopian salad in a fruit house. It's midday, the fruit house is quite full, but I still decide to go on with my vlog, and I film... that was the wrong decision, some people are very pissed by my camera, and the whole food vlog is ruined.
Though, the aggressive interaction that resulted from the fact that I dared to film is very interesting.
After that, I walk to the market of shiro meda, talking about how Ethiopian people stare at my sandals and my shorts. The market is closed, so I finish the video by telling you the story of how the Eucalyptus tree was introduced in Ethiopia.

in my opinion whenever you encounter such issues with people just tell them that you understand their concerns and that you’ll make sure to blur their faces out of respect and never argue with them because it’ll make the situations worse… try to approach them verbally in a friendly way always to break the tension. keep up the awesome work yves!
Wow I like your cognitive idea.
I agree it shouldn't be that hard to respect some people's request to not get filmed. I liked the video up until that point
he is french. that never will happen
If the law allow you to film!! Fuc*@%@ there feeling!!!
Keep it up❤
When you are eating in a restaurant I think that it is reasonable NOT to want to be filmed by a stranger and then be posted on You Tube without your consent. I think I would have just apologised to the guy and assure him that I was not filiming him or anyone else in the restaurant. C'est la vie 🤣🤣
Exactly! It’s not a matter of being legal or not. It’s just plane manners
@@natiggiz Indeed ! 👍
@@natiggizAir plane?
@@Ahad_Faisal no I meant a plane as in “flat surface” officer grammar sir🫡😂
Exactly! I'm surprised that this guy thinks it's his right to film people without their consent. Why is that an odd request to not be filmed? The guy filming sounds very entitled.
Pure experience no cut, no filter, no fancy editing...just showing the reality
OK abel melese

I’ve noticed a lot of paranoia about filming in Ethiopia. However, in this particular scenario Filming inside a restaurant without permission is inappropriate because it can be considered an invasion of privacy. While a restaurant is a public place, and technically law states that you can legally film in public places without any major hurdles, you wouldn’t want to face the potential repercussions of unhappy diners that just want to eat and converse in peace or even unhappy restaurant owners that don’t want you filming
I agree about the privacy in restaurants, however in this case, first the owner didn't mind, atleast I didn't see that, second as far as someone has not focused his/her camera lenses on someone, if someone is randomly filming peopled shouldn't mind unless they have something to hide.
The two men just complain to show they are the big boys in town. The problem these days is when you even record video in a public space and on a road, people shout at you, this paranoia about camera is becoming too much in Addis. Why complain about camera when we don't even complaint about our basic other minor right of ours?
the two guys complaining were dicks...very simple
I’m not arguing if there is an issue with filming in Ethiopia or not. I’m simply stating that it can be considered rude to film people enjoying there meal at a restaurant regardless of what country it’s in. The problem started the moment the food arrived for the 2 people in front of him and he focused his camera towards them. You wouldn’t last 2 minutes recording strangers at a restaurant in Paris either
@@natiggiz Agree!!
I agree its one thing filming on the street but when people are eating and chating privately in a restaurent its another - respect their privacy.
Just because they didn't want be filmed for your youtube video it doesn't mean forigners aren't welcomed and one last thing change the thumbnail it's so click batty and its extreme.
Exactly, visitors should understand that there are people who are camera shy with different reasons … but it’s just not only in Ethiopia or Europe or Asia, it’s just some people and some countries with very restrictive laws … hey … enjoy life and ignore therm … be safe.
yes ,maybe they only were racists 😉✌
Don't put cameras on people's faces for (personal gain) 😂😂😂😅
Or just visit the more civilized countries.
He think he is entitled ,bra leave my people and go to Europe we dont need u
I live in the Netherlands and if you would start filming in a restaurant people wouldnt be happy to be on camera either. Not everybody wants to be all over social media and i can't believe thats so hard to understand for some people.
So true. What gives him the right to go to a 3rd world country and start sticking a camera in people's faces? In Australia you would get a lot of rude looks, and someone would eventually tell you to switch it off.
Also its his money earner ,so he is filming everyone for his own financial profit .
I live in Germany and point the camera wherever I want! In a restaurant and on the street! At the same time, all the Arabs and Africans are silent as if they stuck their tongues up their own asses! In Africa, everyone is brave because they are at home, but in a foreign country they forget their principles! This is called hypocrisy and a low level of consciousness. Etiquette has nothing to do with it! People sitting in a restaurant are just jealous that the Frenchman has more money 💵. Personally, I don't care who films me on camera when I eat! I don't have a woman's complex!!! 🤷🏻♂️ and in ethiopia men behave like virgins - they are shy and afraid 🙀. these are not men but girls 👧

Not everyone is okay to be filmed and posted on TH-cam regardless of which part of world you are. A camera pointing at you is invasive. I don't think you can argue by saying because it is my job.
I agree however if he wanted to record his meal and himself eating there should'nt be a problem
@@Zelazella1 Yes he can and he did just that at the end.
He can and he did. You can keep talking but it‘s already in the video. What you gonna so except crying?
The guys were polite, they left the cafe to avoid being filmed. They were respectful and i appreciate their patience in their own country.
@KinoYves, Sorry about what happened to you, bro. They complain for no reason, because you're recording inside the juice shop. Ethiopia would not exist if it wasn't for all the wheat, flour and rice that is donated by Europe, America, Canada, and Australia. But they go off when you try to record your experience in the country as a tourist.

Noone was violent in this video , white ppl are snakes they pretend act nice but with very selfish reasons , if you don't know now you know , they was saying brother don't film us , and he telling them there is no law that requires me not to film , so I can film you, he is a devil ! 😂 He don't care about the country's culture or respect the people ,
Safety? Why will they do anything to him? They just asked him to stop recording them eating.
@@theassassin9326 exactly lol
they just dont like being filmed. Especially in such a private place. Whats wrong about that? Youre delusional just like the author in this video lol
wtf are you arguing with people in their country, if they don't want to be recorded. respect their wish and move on. You're just asking for trouble at this point.
I am Ethiopian, and he has the right to film in a public space just like anyone else in any other country. That guy was just being rude for no reason. He doesn't have the authority to dictate what someone can or cannot do.
@@AfroSights360 It's irrelevant if it's right or wrong. Stop your arguing and move on. Dude has to use his brain in these situations.
@@AfroSights360 the person has the right to tell yve do n ot fil me and he is right what he said by the way even i like what yve is doing.in this case yve has to be calm and try the next move
This is so totally impolite. It is like asking someone who came to visit South Africa and asking, "wtf" are you fighting with South African criminals. It doesn't make sense at all...
Your camera isnt a weapon. If you dont like being filmed dont leave your house bitch
I'm from Ethiopia It happens frequently even when I film myself and they tell me to stop. I will respond that I have the right to film myself and my food. I can say that it's difficult to show the country in Ethiopia because I just returned from Laos and Thailand where people are welcoming of foreigners and you can film anywhere they are very happy even when you are filming in an unfavorable environment.
You must be extremely eager to be on TH-cam. Use your mind. There are people who don't want to be videotaped, so the other side should respect their privacy. Please don't give information, you can not film anyone without their permission.
@@sademasthank u
You have a right but your right have a limit mostly for the sake of others right to privacy, and comfort.
@@sademas The only people who don't wan't to be filmed are criminaIs
Its because some people from other countries come to Ethiopia and record people to ridicule or to make lies about their country.
There are times where you should respect culture rather than your personal rights. Ethiopia has a law that allow you to record in public, but most people don't know this and they need privacy and you are supposed to accept this and turn the lens around. We Ethiopians obey and follow culture more than rights and it make sense for the dwellers.
I appreciate your knowledge on Ethiopian history.
An individuals preferences have nothing to do with culture. Maybe you should read a couple of the books they are selling.
ur culture is uncivilized why should i respect it
And in Europe you do what you want 😂
@@pingu8666haha funny how so many followers of this world traveler are racist huh must be white. Smh
@@jeffkatzcryptoif the individual preference of all the Ethiopian people is like this then it is culture..
You go and learn a bit about philosophy those books don't do everyone good, some just read the black and white and take nothing from it. Lol smfh
Don't expect that everybody want to show their daily life or even their pic on social media like your's ...they have their own private life style ...respect is the minimum while you are in their country!!
Well said. I was shocked seeing this. I would feel embarrassed being in another country and causing upset like that. Apologise, and respect what you are being asked and move on.
💪
He is allowed to record himself and his food the man was overeacting
@@Zelazella1but he's always recording others too
Exactly that's way some of the reasons because ethiopian people don't want foreign people because don't know the culture and don't have respect
Nah that was an overreaction even the guy next to him with the blue shirt snapping his fingers at u started the whole thing. In Ethiopia there is a problem where people with certain jobs who have higher roles like mangers and especially in the government sector who think they r untouchable and claim superiority over u. It's quite common.If they don't want to be recorded offer to blurr their faces eating or not every1 should feel freedom.The guy next to u is well educated and doesn't mind being filmed so as the older guys Infront of u. As an Ethiopian I'm embarrassed for Ur treatment. I can tell Ur mood completely changed after. Don't take it personally. Love Ur content.
Agree
✅✅
I would just reply: "thanks for letting me know and sorry, it was a mistake". But that doesn't mean that the whole country is not friendly and I think their reaction can be understood. It's just a bit annoying nowadays how many people are walking and pointing cameras everywhere and some people don't feel comfortable, that's it. But as always, thanks for sharing this with us, great job!
Exactly
There is no expectation of privacy in public.. if it’s uncomfortable then don’t go out. Everyone is uncomfortable of something, we all can’t cater to everyone. It’s a camera… not a gun. If he didn’t cause a scene people watching wouldn’t even have noticed him but now he will be known, opposite of what he probably wants. I wish cameras are even more present everywhere. Imagine if cameras were available back in time, how nice would it be to see an abundance of film of past history, how locations used to look like, the list goes on.
It´s in every country in the world the same. Some people like it to be filmed, some not. Everyone should respect that !
@@mikemenelik8193 he should’ve respected him for wanting to video tape his travels, he’s the guest to their country and has spent thousands of dollars to be there and still be there.
@@Wes-k6o It´s not your right to film the face of somebody who don´t want it, to show his face the hole world in the Internet. No matter you are a guest or you spend money to the country. You don´t have special rights because of that ! That´s why so many pictures of faces are pixeled in the net.
You should have to turn the camera to yourself when recording in public places like this. I think everyone is sick of youtubers, tiktokers....the way he talks is inappropriate but expressing his needs to stop being filmed is his right.
انت زول واعي وذكي
Wait a minute! It it just me, or does anyone think that he is clearly out of line when the young man informs him to ask permission to film and he continues to argue with him as if it is up for debate? Rule # 1 when traveling to other places is to respect their customs. He is lucky that the people there are so patient and kind. Very disappointed in Yves. He should know better! 😟
There is law that allows filming without permission im Ethiopia, the other man was clearly out of line. It was outside and in public, Yves still blurred him out too.
He is 1000 % out of line. Did u c the reply he gave to someone. He said " if the restaurant guy could just keep quiet, this would not have happened" he wants him to be quiet, can u believe that. Now my Ethiopian blood is boiling nd i feel like saying " ere goraw, ere goraw, atetetette 😂😂 ere medefer
How ignorant have you have to be to write this comment? Yuvs is not interested in recording those people he is just sharing his experience at the Frute shop to the world this people are ignorant just like you they you have asked politely if it’s okay for him not to put them in the shot if possible! It’s not nice shouting at foreigners doesn’t give a good look to our country!
If someone doesn’t wanted stop
@@Ahad_FaisalIf someone doesn’t want to be filmed that’s their right. Basic respect.
To be fair, that filming was in a privately owned restaurant, not in the public street or public pathway. Also cultural understanding is important to respect as well.
Just as someone in the west wouldn't want a random tourist or foreigner walk into a pub or food restaurant sit down on a table and whip out their tripod, mic and camera and face it towards them, and film the waitresses, and film people privately speaking and eating. But if you were given permission of the owner, then the owner must tell the diners that you are there recording for your thing, and then it's up to them to stay or go. But in this case you should just enjoy the food, and point the camera downwards and not at the people, or just politely tell them what you're doing and if it's fine by them, you know, it's better to stay on the safe side.
That filming was in the terrace of the restaurant, which is in the street, in the public space, as the terrace is not inside the restaurant, but it is clearly out on the sidewalk.
And I have filmed in many many restaurants, and if the owner does not want you to film, they tell you immediately, and then you go somewhere else, which is fair enough, though, what you say is completely disconnected to the reality, because I have never seen a restaurant owner asking all the customers whether they are happy if someone films, including in Ethiopia. Do you imagine a restaurant owner asking his customers' every time someone films anything with a smartphone, or every time someone takes a selfie where someone might appear in the background... in the 21st century, it is a complete none sense, even in Ethiopia.
The right to record others in public is NOT a right in some parts of the world. Don't impose your western values on others.
Hi Kino Yves You should accept that an individual does not want to be filmed. He is asking you not to film him, but you argue with him and continue to film him. He would be correct and polite that you ask the owner of the premises where you intend to be filming, if it is OK to flm there and the customers who visit his place. Nothing to do with "public space" - Try and film a Frenchman whilst he is having his private lunch and see if he does not throw his dish of his delicious escargots in your face. 🐌🐌
You didn't get the video, he is not asking me not to film him. After I stopped filming with my main camera, he is giving a moral lesson off camera, but he did not realize that my other smaller camera was still filming. He complained because I filmed the waitress serving other people, he complained in the name of these people, who actually did not care about what I was doing.
In the mind of this guy, he is giving me a moral lesson off camera.
I never filmed people eating, I filmed people being served by a waitress because I thought she was going to serve me.
@@KinoYves that is a french answer , very shifty and suspicious
Also I don’t think you showed a bad side of Ethiopia, you encountered an individual with his own views and instead of turning the camera towards yourself to accommodate his request you continued to film him
As for myself , both as world traveler and a professional photographer, even though I may have a right to film in various public locations, sometimes out of courtesy it is more considerate to limit or reframe from photographing, ( or be more discreet ) certain people especially when they are eating with friends and family or in personal situations. In some cultures and locations, and among elders, it's very offensive to film, without permission. And of course there are more dangerous areas with unscrupulous individuals who don't want their picture taken, even though a person may have a legal right to take their picture, the photographer may soon learn the hard way that may have not been a wise decision...BTW for the most part your videos are very good, Mahalo, Thanks Aloha
Don't take this incident to heart . Most of the people in Ethiopia are respectful and friendly. Thanks again for coming and visiting our country.
The point is, not every person like the same things - in every country in the world. Some people like it to be filmed, some not !
Not true ! Ethiopian people are full of hate ! Not even like each others
Raw meat eater 😂😂😂
To make what happens in this video clearer, as it seems it is not clear enough with the images.
1. What triggered the incident:
The waitress appears with 2 salads, and I think that one is gonna be for me, so I start filming in order to film the waitress serving me, as I usually do. But this is a bad move as the 2 salads are actually both for the 2 older men.
She serves the 2 salads to the 2 men, and I think, "shit, I filmed for nothing, that was not for me"
Then, I stop filming with my main camera, but my smaller secondary camera is still recording.
2. The incident:
At this point, the scene begins. These guys think that I am not filming anymore, and they feel entitled to give me a moral lesson, off camera. But what many people don't get is that these guys never complain about the fact that I am filming them, because they obviously don't realize that I am still filming (otherwise they would never have allowed themselves to be that rude with me). During the whole scene, they complain in the name of the 2 older men, who actually absolutely don't care about my filming. That's why this scene is so wicked... because they actually never complain for themselves, they complain in the name of people who don't care at all whether I am filming or not. They just wanted to give me a lesson, off camera... but I was actually still filming. I was actually shocked that I could capture this scene while they really carefully waited for me to stop filming to start this conversation.
Concernant la grande majorité des internautes, ils vont lire le titre et regarder la vidéo, et c'est tout. Beaucoup n'iront pas lire les commentaires.
Si régulièrement (ce n'est pas la première fois que vous faites ça), vous en arrivez à devoir vous justifier dans les commentaires en donnant des informations qui n'apparaissent pas dans les vidéos, c'est qu'il y a un sérieux problème de méthodologie.
To be honest in this situation these ppl were right. Sorry to say that. Just respect their will. They are eating. I wouldn't like being filmed then either.
I agree with you.
I know the situation is awkward but still, the reaction of these guys does not make any sense, as they are basically telling me that I have to follow whichever rule they want me to follow.
And funny enough, these guys were originally complaining in the name of 2 other people who actually never complained about being filmed...
They actually never complained because I was filming them, they just complained in the name of other people who didn't seem to care about what I was doing.
In my mind, these guys just wanted to be rude for the sake of being rude.
If you can eat in public, what's the difference with being filmed? Maybe eat in private and not on the street if you don't want to be seen . Some men just want to show authority over foreigners ( the only authority they feel that they have )
Completely disagree. Why are people so uptight about cameras? Theres cameras on every corner for security, police use cameras, the world is digital and internet imbedded. Getting pissed off about somebody filming you IN PUBLIC is fucking comical. Why do you think nobody visits Ethiopia? No westerner wants to go somewhere they cannot film or document their travel. Context is key. Its not like Yves is sticking a camera in their face and being disrespecful. Hes documenting their culture and day to day life. He was being completely respectful. That dude is just a sad soul who wants to pick a fight in any instance, one of those. Africa will continue to have little to no tourism until people like the Stone Age Philosophers in the video exist.
@@KinoYvesAll good my friend. Keep up your good work, maybe get your break back here in Europe for some time and come back in a different region of the planet, as you mentioned in your last video. 👍 Greetings from Munich!
They're human being and wild animal to video them without their permissions. Would you do that to people eating in restaurant in London or Paris?
😂😂😂
You must be joking!
Hundreds of people do this every day in Paris or in London, and guess what...
No one complains.
Its refreshing to see someone vlogging from Ethiopia, I myself am very interested in the culture and food of Ethiopia and wish to visit one day. I will certainly be cautious on my travels, thanks for the great video brother ❤
Hi Yves
Some are unhappy with your filming because some Europeans, Americans, and Asians were making videos and making fun of the Ethiopian people back in their countries. And people in Addis know of this. Some are polite and say nothing, some don't know of these incidents, and some get angry because they know what has been done.
By the way, the guys at the juice salad shop spoke with you politely. Just the knowledge of their English vocabulary was a little. They did not want you to go, but they wanted you to explain to the people what you do. And they would have laughed together with you.
As an Ethiopian, I do like your videos. I know you mean well and want to do what you love. Please let them know that you do youtube videos showing how beautiful Ethiopia is, and you will break the ice, as you usually do :). Sorry about losing your gear. In every country, there is good and bad. Be well, my friend.
I like the guy standing for not to be filmed. That is his right.
So it's ok to be prejudiced? He's not responsible for someone he doesn't know. So no Ethiopian ever said a bad thing while in another country, and if one did then no Ethiopian has a right? The advice should be, to be kinder if you don't want to be recorded or photographed . Yelling across the table made everyone uncomfortable. A real man would walk over and calmly express himself.
You my friend explained that beautifully and clearly . I just hope Ives sees it and reads it soon as he does mean the best I think.
Yves, while I empathize with you on the frustrations of not being able to record in public places for your vlog, in this case my empathy kind of wanes when I stop to think of my and also other people’s rights of privacy in similar circumstances.
By the way, the sense of intrusion from being recorded / photographed in public places without the subjects’ consent is not unique to Addis. It is a world-wide sentiment, more intense in some places than in others. It is also not a new phenomenon. It probably started not too long after the invention of cameras. How do I know? Refer to the French laws codified as far back as in 1880s to protect individuals from the invasion of their privacy. French penal code, namely Article 38 of the Act of 29 July 1881 prohibits the PUBLICATION of photos, portraits, drawings … etc. made in public settings (without the consent of …).
In your vlog, I have heard the argument “how many people (in a public setting) … do I ask?”
I understand that the venue is a private restaurant. To be honest, I don’t know what the governing Ethiopian law stipulates regarding these circumstances. But, notwithstanding the provisions of the European Convention dealing with freedom of expression, the French Parliament Acts of 1970 as amended in 1994 make the acts of: “taking, recording or transmitting, without his or her consent, the picture of a person who is in a private place” as “infringing” on another person’s privacy.
So, if the French Privacy Act governing rules were to be applied here, given that the restaurant is a private business, it appears that the people that asked you to refrain from recording them were within their rights to do so.
Of course, the Ethiopian law, and more precisely the City ordinances (if Addis has particular …) should be the ones that govern the situation here.
But I also think what vlogers should keep in mind is give some thoughts to cultural context prior to recording in certain venues and circumstances.
Generally speaking, Ethiopians do not like being recorded at funerals (I have commented about this in one of your blogs previously); and we also consider eating to be more of a private matter. (You seldom hear an Ethiopian ask another one: “What did you have for lunch? Or, for dinner last night?” That simply is considered rude, ‘un-Ethiopian’. And I guess, it is because we consider what we eat; how we eat … etc. a private affair.
Sorry for the long comment.
A restaurant is not considered a fully private place, as, for example, in France, a restaurant owner does not have the right to refuse people from coming to his restaurant, in order to avoid discrimination.
But in the case of a terrace, and this video was filmed in a terrace, it is completely the public space, at least, in France.
So what you say does not apply at all to this video, even if it would have been filmed inside a restaurant, because a restaurant is NOT considered a fully private place.
A restaurant is a private business, but it is not a private place like a private house.
In France it is completely allowed to film anyone in any restaurant of the country, any restaurant that will not allow you to film will be breaking the law.
If I go to your house an film you and publish it, yes, this is illegal, almost anything else is allowed in France (in terms of filming).
Do you think it is fair to say "foreigners not welcome to addis ababa" because of some ppl don't like to be filmed?
You may face this kind of issues everywhere because it is about privacy and the guy was telling you about him not for the whole country
No, I had problems every time I filmed in Addis. It's been 2 years I vlog, and Addis Ababa is the only place where I have faced so many problems with people become aggressive against me and my camera.
The problem is not about privacy, the problem is Addis Ababa.
I’m sorry to say this, but from all your videos what I understood is that you are trying to distort the image of that country, you only go to places where there is problem. “ I’m suspecting that You have hidden agenda “
Sorry Yves but if people tell you in a reasonable manner that they are not okay with being recorded there should be no further discussion needed. I would expect that from everyone, especially from a foreigner in my country.
Stay safe brother...I'm amazed after the insane places you have visted that you hadn't been robbed at gunpoint before!
He was robbed at gunpoint tbh he explains in the vlog before this one.
@@morelyfe1891 yes that is exactly what I am talking about mate.
Yves, I have been enjoying your journey for the past year - truly remarkable and insightful. But I must agree with most comments - peoples concerns over privacy needs to be respected.
In France the law for filming public spaces for commercial use and filming people is very strict. I have filmed a lot in France over the years - mostly on public markets and the reaction from french people is way more aggressive and confrontational than in the scene of that video. The French are especially concerned with their privacy.
Please keep up the amazing work you are doing and I am looking forward to the next stages of your journey!
I know that French people can be very annoying with people filming, but the law allows you to film in public in France, so if I would have the same situation in France, I would complain in the exact same way in France, because you should not believe the people telling you that it is forbidden, as vlogging and filming people in public is completely allowed in France.
In the case of vlogging, as long as the person filmed is not the main subject of the video, the image of the person is not used for commercial purposes. If you vlog your experience in a market or in a restaurant, the people appearing in the video cannot claim that you used their image commercially, as their image not at the subject of the video.
My opinion is that they just use there personal right if they say „ don’t Film me“. If you stay calm and said „ I accept that“ everything’s done and over. It is the same in any country. There are always people don’t want to. I like your content but to name the video foreigner not welcome is to much bro. Next time don’t talk so nervous and fast and they stay calm, too
I understand that, but that's not what happens in this video. In this video, they think I stopped filming, because they did not notice my smaller camera, and after I stopped filming with the bigger action cam, they decide to give me a lesson off camera (which is what you see in this video).
So they don't ask me not to film them, they only intend to give me a lesson.
Ok but maybe they wanted a small sorry for that. Like a „I’m sorry I do not want to disrespect your personal rights“. You didn’t want to give in, too. Well I can feel them in one way. Not a big thing, like your content, go on, wish you the best…
Why not deescalate? "I'm sorry brother, my bad, no more filming anymore. Only my food, no people." People don't like to have their views challenged by tourists in their native country.
Yves, my dear, You are accountable for filming others without their permission. It's clear that you wouldn't do that in a civilized country. I get the sense that you underestimated that man. It is important to respect the privacy of others.
I have done that in many other countries, and I never had any issue. Especially in Europe.
I even happen to film in a restaurant in Bosnia, and the president of Bosnia was in the restaurant, and the PRESIDENT of Bosnia never complained about me filming.
@@KinoYves PRESIDENT of Bosnia is a public person ,you can film him this people are privet persons who whats to enjoy their quite afternoon launch , and then you came along with your camera and your im so civilized argument and ruin their day. this video fills like revenge video for getting robed in southern region. .sandals and shorts are for poor peoples ? WTF no one think that way
This video is numbered vA 46, the robbery video is vA 59. This video was filmed months before I got robbed in the South.
@@KinoYvesif one country allows , it doesnt mean others will. Am not a tourist but am sure u became one knowing that a did ur research how to handle it. Never seen a tourist that gets pissed off if things doesn't get there way. Don't excpect ppl to be quiet just for ur pleasure while u r invading thier privacy or their culture. That's very very disrespectful. Pls go do some revision about ur profession.
How to handle it : "Sorry, I apologise. I am making a video for TH-cam, do you mind if I film, I can show you if you like'
You argued like an arrogant Westerner and inflamed rather than taking the hint. You didnt grow up there, you dont really appreciate the 'why' some people are against it. They dont live in a world of 'rights' and 'no rights' when it comes to social media.
Kenya seemed far more civilised and friendly. I was married to an Ethiopian lady she was very much an arrogant and controlling person. It didn't last long. Good luck.
Désolé Yves, mais là non. Vous n'êtes pas sur la voie publique, vous êtes sur la terrasse d'un restaurant. Il ne s'agit pas de simples passants qui apparaissent furtivement, mais de clients qui sont attablés pour manger, et qui restent malgré eux presque en permanence dans le champ de votre caméra. D'après ce que je vois, vous n'avez même pas demandé la permission aux employés du restaurant, vous filmez d'office.
Si des clients ne veulent pas être filmés, il faut stopper, et non pas se lancer dans une polémique et encore moins avec des arguments moisis du genre "je filme, c'est mon job".
J'aime bien vos vidéos, mais parfois certaines séquences créent un sentiment de malaise, à cause de votre attitude qui n'est pas toujours adéquate.
Bien dit...si un éthiopien venait filmer des terrasses de café , les gens dans la rue, certains halls d'immeubles en france, il pourrait avoir des problèmes aussi...ça se fait pas de filmer les gens comme ça...google maps , les gens sont floutés , idem pour beaucoup de reportages télés...
@@hervedelille2468 Pour avoir un peu voyagé, je dirais que ça dépend beaucoup des pays, des endroits. Dans certains pays, les locaux s'en fichent d'être filmés, il arrive même qu'ils se prêtent au jeu. En revanche, dans d'autres pays, les locaux n'aiment pas ça du tout. Il y a aussi des gens qui n'oseront rien dire, parce qu'ils ne veulent pas créer un conflit.
En ce qui me concerne, il m'arrive de filmer dans les restaurants, mais je filme les plats, et éventuellement moi mais en faisant en sorte que personne d'autre ne soit dans le champ de la caméra.

It doesn't make you want to visit the country. It's a pity because it's an interesting culture and there are certainly good people. Hostile people are committing an autogoal against their country. Thanks for filming and telling the truth.
His mistake what he still doing in this 💩country
"Hostile people". No one hacked Yves to pieces with a machete. Pointed an AK47 on his head. Nor raped him with a guitar.
A dude didn't like to be filmed (he probably is wanted by ICC or interpol) and you paint all Ethiopia as bad? Pathetic
You are so sensitive and weak that you would feel offended and threatened by even the harmless penguins of the Arctic.
Then don't visit the country!! If respecting my privacy and culture is a nuisance for you stay away. Because this is Ethiopia, we don't let the arrogant white man get whatever he wants!!
No l, I am not agreed that he explained about Ethiopia Country. Did you hearing what was the conversation that guy argued with him?!?! With out permission that hadn't took video camera took him . that was disrespectful, don't to you? Who does happy with out asking someone permission that taking the video from the developed country?! So Ethiopian are they are really kindness and all welcome the foreign country. So this guys he make video about Ethiopia not exactly true that he explained.❤❤❤❤
@@lindahurtz4447 Nobody would notice this guy if he wouldn't bully Yves. He did not film this guy in particular, he just wanted to film his meal and the atmosphere in the restaurant. I heard the conversation and the guy was arrogant and agressive towards Yves. There are ways to tell thinks more politely. He could simply ask Yves : "Please I don't want to appear in your movie, could you please blur my face?" (Which Yves did by the way. It is possible to film the public space, unless you don't focus on one person in particular. I know that in Senegal they make problems, just like in Ethiopia. On the other hand in India you can film everywhere without problem. I think Yves will go spend his money somewhere else. Tough luck for Ethiopia.
It is disappointing that you do not show respect to the local cultures and traditions in the country you are visiting. If filming of people without their permission is allowed in France, this doesn’t mean that France is right about that and French rules have to be the benchmark for other countries. If those Ethiopian guys travel to France, they will have to respect the French culture and rules, right?
Even as a local I've found myself in a pickle for innocently using my phone privately while facing a stranger in a cafe. The paranoia runs deep here, and the lack of exposure is the reason IMHO.
I think it ok to ask permission first! The people are right because not everyone wants to be filmed. Next time it better to ask first 😊
people disliked you filming them and you make a generalized statement as foreigners Not welcome in Addis Ababa … just to get your views…… Shame on you
He was right. You are recording people eating. Its kinda weird. Feel free to record yourself
I somehow agree with this ethiopians. I wouldnt like to be recorded in restaurant either
They asked him politely and try to back their reasons and left , he is a spoiled entitled brat that knows nothing about nothing ,
Hello sir, I have been watching your videos. I feel sorry for you encountering some issues. This can happen anywhere, in any country. However, you can’t generalize by saying “Foreigner not welcome in Addis Ababa” just because some people were not happy being in your camera. You got it absolutely wrong to put that text on the front face of this video.
I remember your Arrival in ethopia. Full of joy and looking forward what is coming After the trouble to get your bike in the county. Sad that it become that stressful and somtimes dangerous…
They have the right to complain I don't want anyone filming me public or not doesn't matter u need to respect people.
Respect the culture and customs of the people just as we expect visitors to respect the customs and traditions of our own culture when they come to the West, it is only fair that we do the same when we travel to other countries. Whether it's France, Ethiopia, Sudan, or any other place, understanding and honouring their cultural norms is a sign of respect.
In some cultures, it may be considered inappropriate for grown men to wear shorts due to the perception of immodesty. Instead of disregarding or criticising this norm, it is important to acknowledge and adapt to it when we are in those countries. Dismissing or challenging their customs suggests a lack of respect for their way of life. If you find it difficult to accept certain cultural practices, it might be best to reconsider visiting those countries altogether.
It is crucial to recognise that defying and criticising another culture while being a guest in their country only reinforces a sense of cultural superiority and an imperialistic mindset. You should strive for cultural understanding, appreciation, and empathy instead.
It has nothing to do with modesty. Just google image search Ethiopia and you'll see Ethiopian people with shorts and other exposed skin. He literally explained in the video that it's because only poor people wear shorts, and for some reason you just rejected the explanation and went with your own so you could lecture him for doing nothing wrong.
You are correct. It is a pity that Muslims do not do that when they come to the West.
There u go. My thought excactly. Respect !
I like that you integrate historical stories into your videos so that we can understand the present society.
In my opinion,asking permission before doing anything is very helpful.Because,we don't know if the thing we do is okay for other.So,it is better to ask permission to prevent any unnecessary conflicts.Be safe and stay safe.
I'm an Armenian-American who just decovered your channel. All the best and take care from California, USA.
We are basically going to miss " GOOD MORNING MY FRIENDSsss !!! Bonne continuation
If someone doesn’t want to be filmed that’s their right. You have to respect people’s boundaries, especially in a foreign country.
Yves the title of this video could scare away visitors from Ethiopia; believe me for every one bad person you encounter in Ethiopia, there are hundreds of thousands that love to see you there but you have hit the nail on the head in reasoning it out. The government is to blame for the paranoia and mistrust that contaminated their social life. Merci Beaucoup 🙏🏽
They are not bad people. I would personally break any camera put on my face.
, my neighbors went there, got attacked, one of them was in a coma briefly then passed away recently. both of them british
@@SM-ce1uy sad to hear that.
Filming inside a restaurant without permission is inappropriate because it can be considered an invasion of privacy.
A sidewalk is not a private place. And in a restaurant, the rules are set by the owner of the restaurant, not by random customers.
😂😂 don't Be ofended Yves. currently in Ethiopia the inflation is making us cranky. I my self might yell at someone today 😂

Great video, Yves! This is the kind of content I like, and I think many others.
I would find it annoying if I’m eating at a restaurant and some freak is filming me.
I want the same shit to hapoen I want an African vlogger ,going to Europe restaurant outs camera on people's faces , saying he is recording their culture 😂😂😂n go into their villages , n see how he would be treated ,
Sorry about what happened to you, bro. They complain for no reason, because you're recording inside the juice shop. Ethiopia would not exist if it wasn't for all the wheat, flour and rice that is donated by Europe, America, Canada, and Australia. But they go off when you try to record your experience in the country as a tourist.

I experienced the same thing in Ethiopia and was even told I have to delete my footage. I told them “okay” but I never deleted anything and I posted it on TH-cam. 😂 I’m with you - people need to know the laws. Public filming is not illegal.
My husband is Ethiopian and he was embarrassed by these ppl. They are acting like Karen’s.
Thank you for having the balls to do this. So many of us would never be able to see this raw experience. Bravo and stay respectful🙏🏼
Woow i would pay millions for THIS "rAw ExPerIenCe"
Maan i really loved this channel but seeing what kinda community is present here i thinks it's time to move on.
Just buttlickers and tailriders here..
@@FlashxSoundsjust like you in the past, now gtfo
i like what you do but, you thumbnail is wrong/lie and misleading. ill not be watching unless you change it. i just unsubscribed too
To begin with i really can see you keep your cool no matter what, i was expecting you would just leave after the confrontation;
it is just a bad timing now every one is on the edge to easily get upset.... but the camera is still an issue some people are strictly private with their life thats why. And you YVES just keep doing what your doing. you cant be politer, nicer, than you are.
The video does not show all the necessary information
There are some points
Like the khat tree or Katha edulis is an evergreen and flowering tree that grows mainly in the Horn of Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. This plant is mainly grown for its leaves, which contain a stimulating substance called cathinone. The leaves of the khat tree are chewed for their slightly stimulant and pleasurable effect.
In Ethiopia, especially in Addis Ababa, khat is widely consumed and plays an important cultural and social role. It is often consumed during social gatherings or as a recreational activity to communicate and engage in discussions.
The leaves of the khat tree are picked fresh and chewed to release the active substances. The effects of khat consumption include increased alertness, improved mood, and a sense of well-being. However, it may also cause side effects such as insomnia and loss of appetite, and in some cases the individual may experience addiction.
It is important to note that the use and cultivation of khat is regulated in various countries such as Yemen and its legality varies. In Ethiopia, the sale and consumption of khat is legal, but regulations surrounding its use may vary.😎
I have to say, that I find it very disrespectful to film someone who explicitly says doesn't want to be filmed. If someone doesn't want to be filmed, just don't film them.
Hi Yves. I actually think you still managed to show us how good the salad was! It looked yummy! When I was in Addis 3 weeks ago, I also felt that there is less trust. My friends said they felt a huge change in the last 2 years. The city is definitely on edge. However, you kept very cool. Kudos and best wishes for the next phase of the trip!❤
Yves,
I love watching your videos, however, I wouldn’t advise arguing with local people. If they are becoming very agitated, and more than one person, why continue to defend your position? You are still a visitor in their country. Just turn the camera off and film elsewhere where the people aren’t agitated. I don’t believe it’s worth the trouble.
You already told us about a very bad adventure you had in some remote area. Also, with all the tribal warfare occurring there, maybe certain sensitive people do not want their faces shown in certain areas. I would just respect their wishes instead of trying to push your luck. We want you to be safe.
Take care…
Yves, is there a reason why you did not blur the picture of one of the guys who first refused being filmed?
The country is in political unrest inside and with outside countries if you did not know. Thanks!
I did not blur the other guy because he never told me that he did not want to be filmed.
He wanted to give me a lesson about filming the 2 older guys being served a salad (who never complained themselves), but he never said that he did not want to be filmed.
Brother it is due to the War and political tensions that made people worry about being filmed. In the past it was so easy and you could see a welcoming and charming face of the people. Nothing at all. I believe people will recover from the political trauma soon!
And Your SANDALS 😅😅😅
Hello Eve, I hope you are reading this comment, I want to send my condolence for everything you faced on this video. The person who spoiled your day by talking no sense about filming the streets and everything about Addis Ababa was not trying to defend himself or others, instead he was trying to gain attention from others by confronting Forringers like you by showing that he is a literate person who can speak English. I am also Ethiopian, and I can say there are a lot of persons who have such kind of behavior.
but for better I just want to say that you are the most generous, respectful and so entertaining youtuber on this platform, you were trying hard to show the world good side of Ethiopia, even though everyone was against you. I had also watched the barber incident, and it was so sad but eve I want to tell you that all Ethiopian are not like this. Thank you for everything keep going
You should be ask the permission .he right that was disrespectful sir. You don't have complained those please the is not true about the Ethiopian people that you said okay. First of all specially Addis's Ababa is the capital city note civilized and they are welcome the foreign people. So don't given wrong information for others tourism people.. 😮😮🎉🎉
KUDOS to the guy who didn'twant to be filmed. It's his right eventhough the French guy keeps filming him. So so proud of him. We should all get a lesson nd know our rights in our country. That's how u get respected by others who is trying to dominate u , mistreat u , make u to be quiet in their own country. No country respects others the way Ethipians respect foreigners. We have been there nd we know, ya we know how French ppl treat immigrants.
Don't say for all foreigners man maybe they didn't like the way you approach or film and it doesn't mean they hate foreigners so if you don't like leave don't give us ugly comments........we are welcoming country
Hello, I might be mistaking for saying this because maybe you mentioned it and I could have missed it but in your whole journey to Africa, how come you never mention how the European countries (France being the most) EXPLOITED this whole continent and it is the way it is in Africa now because of the all that exploitation.
Hi, I am not sure exactly why you think he should mention at all French colonialism. If my memory is right he only visited 2 countries so far who were under French rule, Lebanon and Syria for 23 years. Or maybe you are just simply focusing on the fact that he is a French citizen travelling in Africa and that somehow this is his duty to take responsibility for French colonialism, which seems an odd way to think about it. All the best.
Could this have been avoided if you made it very clear that you’re filming the food not him? And that he’s not the “subject” of your video? Just curious to know if that’s been clarified
Of course, it might have been avoided by giving them this true explanation, but once people get aggressive, then I get on the defensive side, and then it is harder to give them a calm explanation, especially as, in their mind, they were giving me a moral lesson off camera, as they did not notice that my second small camera was still filming.
But from the way they caught my attention by disrespectfully snapping their fingers, it was obvious that they just wanted to teach me a lesson off camera. That's why I immediately felt offended.
@@KinoYves absolutely understand, thanks for clarifying. It also must have been really uncomfortable to sit through this and be the only foreigner in the restaurant
That dude was supposed to be at work and you filmed him eating on company time😂
Remember, you can’t violate other’s rights but expect people to respect yours. Specially, if you are in foreign countries, respect the local people.
I never violated anyone's right in this video.
@@KinoYvesit’s ok bro
Most of the Ethiopian people are very kind and nice but like any country there are some people not good so don’t be sad my dear Yves , God bless you and my good wishes to you from Alexandria 🇪🇬
Ask permission to record. Ethiopia power
The only way to show the world how beautiful Ethiopia is, is by filming it. The guys in the cafe were just trying to look smart in front of everybody. Big thanks to everybody who was nice to Kino.
i love it when you drink juice and eat on your vlogs!
The idea of introducing eucalyptus to Ethiopia was not good. Eucalyptus absorbs too much water from the ground. For example, if you plant eucalyptus near the river, after few years that river will dry up. During the sunny summer, if you cut down an eucalyptus and separate it into halfs, you will see that water pour off it.
What kind of camera do you use ? Does it look like a gun ? 😂 😂
I am Ethiopian. There is some ugly person, those cannot represent all of us. Sorry for cafe show you disrespect. I real appreciate you for showing our culture. We have to pay for your work but you did free. I thank you from my side.
their house their rules
yes europeans could learn from them 😂
@@dansmaljaj3796 what are you trying to say
@@danieleyob3796 read again ....theres no try ....it s very clear ✌
on the one side i could understand the man in the restaurant, but on the other side it always depends on how you express something.
You have great videos but I think your reaction to people who don’t want to be filmed is a bit much. Yes this your job and yes you are in a public place. But anytime someone asks you to not film them, it should not be a big deal, their rights should also be taken into account, whatever their reason may be. Just move on and film others who are willing. And a few interactions should not be the basis of judgement about a whole city or country.
Be safe bro in Ethiopia, sounds very rough… Love your videos
That must have been awkward having to sit through the salad afterwards😅
Honestly the people who complained are right; I personally don’t want you to record me and post it to the public without my will and you should respect their privacy.
Merci beaucoup Yves, ton contenu est tellement intéressant c'est juste excellent ! Continue de nous faire rêver, t'es génial mec ! ❤👍
I think the restaurant and the customers are within their rights to ask for permission first and not everyone wants to be on videos and they were respectful about it. In today’s social media world with TH-camrs, influencers, we normalised invading ppl’s privacy.
It is not correct for you to say that foreigners are not welcome in Ethiopia; you are giving people a wrong idea. What is not right is that you didn't apologize when they confronted you for filming and started arguing. What you don't understand is that they were upset about the lack of respect you showed and that you only focused on it being your job without considering the feelings of others. It's understandable because you might not have the cultural background to comprehend it. So, I would recommend that you ask an Ethiopian person about their opinion on your attitude
The French man who introduced the eucalyptus tree in Ethiopia was **Jules Borelli**. He was a botanist, explorer, and physician who traveled extensively in Africa in the late 19th century. In 1894, he was commissioned by Emperor Menelik II of Ethiopia to bring eucalyptus trees from Australia to Ethiopia. Borelli believed that the eucalyptus trees would help to improve the country's water supply and prevent malaria. He introduced the trees to Ethiopia in 1895, and they were quickly planted throughout the country.
Eucalyptus trees have since become an important part of the Ethiopian landscape. They are used for a variety of purposes, including timber, firewood, and water purification. They are also believed to have medicinal properties, and are used to treat a variety of diseases.
Here are some additional details about Jules Borelli:
* He was born in 1857 in Marseille, France.
* He studied medicine at the University of Montpellier.
* He traveled extensively in Africa, including Ethiopia, Somalia, and Kenya.
* He published several books about his travels, including "Éthiopie méridionale: explorations et voyages, 1885-1898" (1900).
* He died in 1941 in Paris, France.
Awesome, thank you for the explanation.
i m from ethiopia
i like your video
Some of us in the west don't like to be filmed
Eucalyptus I think comes from Australia an thrives in hot dessert lands. The early zionist used it in Israel too.
Good to know you are going home. Hope all goes well Yves
What a complicated people. Thank you for showing me one country I will never visit.
