"It's a life of sacrifice" Where we're taking you: to Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh. 15 million people live there. That's 43,000 people per square km/ per 0.6 of a mile. The heaviest concentration of humanity on the planet. It's a tough life for most. We take a glimpse into the life of one of the 400,000 rickshaw drivers. Our hero struggles. He wants better for his children. So, as a side job, he dives into sewers (yes, human feces sewers) to search for gold dust that gets washed down the drains by the gold diggers. We listen to a train driver: he just doesn't brake otherwise the carriages will tip over and hundreds would die. So he says. So far, not one accident in 30 years. Fishermen along the Ganges use trained otters to help them catch fish. We follow pilgrims who stand 8 hours straight on the train ride - to attend a pilgrimage. Milions travel to the city to pray and listen. It's not a holy islamic site but scholars come. The people listen. A life made up of sacrifice. Five super interesting facts about Bangladesh 🇧🇩 1. It is the eighth-most populous country in the world, with a population exceeding 164 million people. 2. Dhaka, the capital and largest city, is the nation's economic, political and cultural hub. 3. Dhaka is the ninth-largest and the sixth-most densely populated city in the world, with a population of 8.9 million residents within the city limits, and a population of over 21 million residents in the Greater Dhaka Area. 4. Dhaka suffers some of the worst traffic congestion in the world. The city lacks an organized public transport system. Construction of MRT and a BRTmay solve the problem. Cycle rickshaws and auto rickshaws are the main mode of transport within the metro area, with close to 400,000 rickshaws running each day: the highest number in any city in the world. 5. Islamic festivals of Eid ul-Fitr, Eid ul-Adha, Eid-E-Miladunnabi and Muharram; Hindu festival of Durga Puja; Buddhist festival of Buddha Purnima; and Christian festival of Christmas witness widespread celebrations across the city.

I know u already did a documentary abt India.. Bt in that u didn't mentioned hardcore side like drive through Himalayas...I hope there wil be a second documentary abt India
These documentaries are so much better than Netflix or Even Prime documentaries. Prime just started charging a little extra to remove commercials if one wants to pay for that? I just laughed 🤣 and said to myself "your LATE!!" I simply mute the sound on my TV and look at my cellphone, then unmute it on my TV when the show comes back on. I say late because TH-cam has STILL the best documentaries I have ever seen👊🤪

I have visited Bangladesh twice for 4 week holidays and based myself in Dhaka and traveled around the Country. What an unforgettable experience. I liked so many aspects but the main thing for me was how friendly and genuine the people were towards me and they were so happy when I told them I was visiting Bangladesh as a Tourist. Many thanked me for “ visiting my Country “ I am from the UK. I hope to revisit next year,
Oh absolutely. But they love jobs. They’re adventure junkies. They know what they’re doing but we are always glad when every crew member comes back safe and sound.
The guy is walking along the edge of the train and is like, "i can even go from carriage to carriage". All i could think is, so what? the camera man is doing it too! haha
Bangladesh has almost the same death rate by road traffic accidents as Qatar (14.43 vs 14.23)... Do you want to thank every person taking photos in Qatar?!
I don't live in a big country like America, not even in a super rich country like the UAE, but after watching this documentary it makes me more grateful to live in my country.
Why does everyone associate rich with awesome? I’ve met some of the kindest most inspiring people who are poor. They’re all usually kinder, more inspiring than any rich people I’ve met. That’s not to say they shouldn’t be helped because they should. There’s enough wealth in the world for everyone to live a dignified life. Unfortunately, we still have a ways to go. But I prefer seeing beauty of the soul over glitz and empty eyes.
You're from Indonesia right? Living in Bangladesh isn't much worse than it is in Indonesia, when you look at the Human Developement Index (HDI), the HDI score of Bangladesh is just a bit lower than that of Indonesia or on the level of Indonesia back in 2010. Bare in mind the Documentary is from 2014, not very old but still 7 years, Bangladesh had a good growth rate since then, from 2014 to 2020 Bangladesh's Economy grew by around 7% every year and even in the bad last year it grew by nearly 4%, while most countries had negative growth, like India with -10%, but Indonesias GDP per Capita is still nearly twice as high. Also Indonesia is a big country my friend lol.
So sad to hear the rickshaw driver say he’s ashamed of his work… he’s working tirelessly to send money home to his family he only sees once every 60 days. That sounds pretty honourable to me!
What about just don't reproduce and try to escape that country ? Please stop romanticizing things like that . Its just cruel to have kids in countries like these
These documentaries teach us a very important lesson, think about how difficult these people's lives are before you complain about simple things in your life
The amount of sweat & toil you put into the making of these documentaries, from the selection of the stories, to researching every tiny detail, to the enormous efforts of your camera crew, all are inspirations I see for myself to work harder for my family.

Such documentaries teach us how to respect what we have and not crying over not having this & that....there are people wo don't have nothing still living
I lived in Bangladesh for more than four years as a bideshi. I have the highest respect and admiration for the people of Bangladesh. Nowhere else in my travels have I been met with the same level of hospitality and grace than in Bangladesh. To meet foreigners with such civility in spite of the incredible hardships? Incredible. Simply incredible!
Thank you for your generous comment, indeed the poor people of Bangladesh are hospitable and accommodating even with their limited resources. There’s no room for depression for the working citizens, no work is equivalent to no food.
Thanks! I am from Honduras and I would love a Honduras version of this documentary. My cousin has a transportation business there and I hear his road stories.
Yeah so sad seeing all those young children and women living by the train tracks like that. Extreme poverty is truly horrendous. Sad thing is with all the wealth we have in the world, we could probably improve so many peoples lives. Unfortunately, human greed is stronger than compassion.
@@dramc-ov3cp people in poverty, mostly have more than 2 children. Before commenting " uncontrolled breeding is what animals do" know their financial situation. Having a lot of children means more income for their family. Know the situation, of the people living in steets and slums before commenting nonsense.
Wow, I was like WOW I'm not the only one grabbing my coffee and sitting down to be enlightened every time never fails to capture my mind in thoughts!!!!
The life cycle of the gold made me chuckle a little bit. 1. Gold dust enters through the breath of goldsmiths. 2. Ingested gold is passed as stool. 3. Stool is collected from sewer by alchemists 4. Sedimentation and purification process starts and completes with less than a gram of gold 5. Gold that was once inside the body of goldsmiths is sold back to them and they complain and haggle the price. 6. Alchemists are paid and the meagre amount is split among them Kudos for the documentary and all who took part in it. It makes me more grateful and appreciative of all the opportunities that have been thrown my way.
watching all of your videos makes me feel like "I am traveling around the world" for free with FREE DOCUMENTARY. praying for the safety of the team especially to your crew members on the field as they were trying their very best & risking their lives to provide us a world class documentaries. a huge fan here from The Philippines 🇵🇭
I'm also from Bangladesh and i thanks God and then my parents to give a life where i get alot of opportunities where others just can dreaming. This documentary make me think again about my life and make me feel greatful to what i have.
Shame on your Bangladeshi government, When you say your economy higher than Singapore , Malaysia & New York. This is the real life 😭 I'm from Bangladesh and I accept this documentary 👍

The series of *World's Most Dangerous Roads* changed my prospective for life to be honest. Best series ever seen and I'm absolutely not joking. Big respect for the men and women who took the microphone and the camera inside that crowded train and on top of it for hours without having an opportunity to get off until it stops at a station and especially with all that smell from the sewer! Hats down for life, keep this documentary coming.
Thats not about corruption at all it was all about British Empire who stole all the money and resources from Indian subcontinent and later divide them into 3 pieces
Seriously, this gives a new perspective to the struggles of life especially after seeing the gold collectors, it made me really sad and grateful about my situation.

Free documentary has made a perfect documentary about Bangladesh. This kind of documentary has never been made so nearly before. I started watching videos of free documentary from last year and when I saw them making documentaries about different countries, I had high hopes that they would also make documentaries about our Bangladesh. Finally, their documentary about Bangladesh was released two days ago. Many thanks to the free documentary team for making this wonderful documentary about our Bangladesh and for projecting the plight of Bangladesh's transport sector to the world.
Yes, we all feel sorry for those that's suffered but don't ask "God" to save them. The sufferings showed in this video is clear indication that "God" does not intervened(if there's such things as God that is). Therefore, we must help ourselves. Some has suffered so much and yet, they work so hard...in times of plenty, they give all credit to "God"..while during hard times, they blame themselves for the sufferings.
@@everyoneisdisappointedinme6428 nobody hurts me. I'm only telling the truth. And the truth is it's good to have faith in our beliefs but too much faith will make one become delusional while too little faith makes one become infidel.
@kakashi sentai you only wish, but so sorry to disappoint you because my life is just fine. I accept the life I have and I'm fine with it that's why I've said those that's had a miserable life needs to help themselves instead of relying on "God". Only a miserable person living a miserable life relying too much on God would assume the things I've said above as "living a miserable life". So, how can I "deserve" it when I'm not in a miserable life situation? Since you seem to know a lot about miserable life, you tell me?...lol
I became your subscriber in the past few weeks. I honestly admit that this documentary is the best of all the documentaries I have watched before, whether on TV or on TH-cam. Congratulations to you. May you continue to excel in the future and thank you so much. Love from 🇲🇾
The camera work here is one of the best I’ve ever seen. It gives you the feeling that you’re there, observing their daily live. It feels so organic. The samosa vendor on top of the train roof almost gave me a heart attack.
I like Muhammed, the train conductor with the red beard. He seems like a nice person. Actually, everyone seems to be nice or at least cordial. The extreme lengths that people have to go to, to barely avoid starving to death, gives me an entirely different attitude of our own struggles. My heart aches for the population shown in this video.
@@fazlayrabbi8815 Im From Khagrachari (Chiittagong Hill Tracts) And that's really true! No railway station in my city and everything is natural here! Because population is very low in this city than other cities of Bangladesh!!

Glad to see my country in this documentary. :D Just correction: 16:03 his wife didn't die due to falling from the train. He was mentioning that someone died due to a fatal collision with obstacles on the train roof few days ago..
I'm from Bangladesh! But I never knew about sewerage gold thing. They worked hard only for 13.33$. I was crying when he said they will divide this amount among themselves.
I just hope Bangladeshi people say no to corrupt politicians and bring them to account , I just hope things do get better , it's very upsetting people living in those conditions.
@@naveedmaqbool this documentary was shot in 2014. Bangladesh experienced a surge of development after 2015. Bangladesh has surpassed India in terms of per capita GDP in 2020.
I watch at least one of these documentaries every day usually during breakfast and they have made me complain less about petty inconveniences I face during the day.
Thank you for showing us this poor other world. This makes me truly appreciate my life and try to help others less fortunate. We have to thank the film camera crew and producers. Truly amazing beautiful film. I cannot believe how that gold was found in the sewers. And I will never complain about my overcrowded train ever again after seeing those tough people on the roof. I hope films like this will help Bangladesh get investment and more development
Bro this is recorded at least 10-15 years back. Bangladesh is no longer like this. But sometimes when long holidays then this happen some of the train which is local train. Intercity train is far better than this
@@md.habiburrahman481 I been to Bangladesh 3years ago I guess there was a holiday and it was so crowded our guid recommend to stay in the hotel.we enjoyed the food .most people are very friendly in Dhaka when we went to a village it was quite hostile no one wanted to talk. Our guid confirmed that trains get crowded like this every year.
I've lived there over 15 months and trust me this documentary barely does justice. From food to hygiene and work is even worse. May God bless this nation.
chilling in a room of fuming nitric acid, nbd... This has to be my favourite episode. Not many roads in this one, more of a 'the streets of...' which makes it like a compelling glimpse into their lives.
Even in a life of struggle I am amazed at the entrepreneurship of all the people whether it be the one trying to find gold in the sewers or the guy making a quick buck selling singaras on top of the trains. Very nice documentary providing a glimpse into the lives of ordinary Bangladeshis.
The "Bengal sultanate" or modern day Bangladesh produced 52% of Mughal Empire GDP & 33% of Worlds GDP. Bengal or modern day Bangladesh was first to fall to The East India Company at the Battle of Palashy/Plassey. .. that's why British East India Company HQ was located in Calcutta in undivided Bengal. ..Narayanganj District just 10km south of Dhaka in present day Bangladesh was the hub for the British trade & used to call "Dundee of the East". .. Since Bangladesh has the most fertile soil in the World British East India company cultivated opium in a district call "Nilphaamari" in present day Bangladesh 200+km north of Dhaka city & delivered to China which was the sole reason for Opium wars. The Bengal Presidency under "BRITISH RAJ" or modern day Bangladesh at the height of its territorial jurisdiction, it covered large parts of what is now South Asia and Southeast Asia ( From Afghanistan to the west to Singapore to the East). Bengal was the economic, cultural and educational hub of the British Raj .. Historically, Bengal or Bangladesh has been the industrial leader of the subcontinent & produced 52% of the Mughal Empire GDP & 33% of the world GDP during British Raj & & fueled the First Industrial Revolution in Europe & America in the period from about 1760 to sometime between 1820 and 1840 particularly with the proto-industrialized Mughal Bengal ( modern day Bangladesh), through the activities of the East India Company. ... Bengal or Bangladesh produced Tea, Jute, Opium (( Opium was produced in a district call 'Nilphaamari' in Bangladesh which was supplied to China by The East India Company & the sole reason behind The Opium Wars.)) The region is one of the largest rice producing areas in the world, Bangladesh being the world's 3rd largest rice producer & West Bengal being India's largest rice producer. Other key crops include jute, tea, sugarcane,wheat,etc. There are significant reserves of URANIUM, limestone, natural gas and coal in the districts of Sylhet, Meghalaya & Assam in Bangladesh. Major industries include textiles, leather goods, pharmaceuticals, shipbuilding, banking and information and communication technology. When Bengal was reorganized, Penang, Singapore and Malacca were separated into the Straits Settlements in 1867. British Burma became a province of British Raj. Western areas, including the Ceded and Conquered Provinces and The Punjab, were further reorganized. Northeastern areas became Colonial Assam. The Partition of British India in 1947 resulted in Bengal's division on religious grounds.
I am Frome Pakistan 🇵🇰 i was live in Malaysia i have many Bangladeshi friends thy are very hardworking nation i believe one day there new generation will rebuild Bangladesh very good and stable country in the world thy need leadership only Salaam Bangladesh 🇧🇩 from Philippines 🇵🇭
@@williamstark6829 Sir, please get yourself informed before making ignorant claims, the world can be a better place without false information being spread. No need to seek far, I can let you know what I have studied on the topic of population: In the last 100 years, many countries around the world have seen a surge in population, including the one you may be living in. This came as a result of high birth rates and lower infant mortality rates due to better medication (an effect of the industrial revolution). For example in the US, it was the 'baby boomer' generation in the 1960s. Eventually, the state reached the point where there were lower birth rates and lower infant mortality rates, causing a more stable population growth. This is called the demographic transition model. We have seen this trend occur in a wide variety of countries over the world, with some nations in different stages in the transition model, including Dhaka, Bangladesh. Next, Dhaka is situated in one of the most fertile lands in the world, which meant that it already had lots of people to begin with. In addition, we have not yet considered the effect of those who move to Dhaka from within Bangladesh, yet another cause of overpopulation. Finally, the teachings of Islam DO NOT tell us to have as many children as possible, and this is simply a foundationless claim that you have no evidence to support for. In conclusion, I hope you understand why being an ultracrepidarian and making claims with no evidence does not lead us to prosperity. Thank you.
It says 2014. Know your country well. If you only live in upper class ecosystem, then it's a pity that you will never know the truth. By the way, I am a Bangladeshi as well and well aware of the fact that Bangladesh is developing.
I am so proud to be a Bangladeshi.I love my country so much .I don't care about her poor economy,poverty,ignorance ect.Thank you alot for showing up a proper image of my country before the world.It's not a shame for us , it's a subject of pride.We have achieved our independence just 50 years ago.And we our fighting to cope up with the whole situation and we will do so together....
When people start dying from disease, famine and civil conflict. You will see how great life is for you. Only the rich are free and can separate themselves from the poor. So keep breeding like flies and things will only get worse. Who would be selfish enough to bring children into your world. I would rather have been aborted then live in your shoes standing in a sewer. My life is better then yours in America. but its getting worse everyday and I welcome death. Man is the cancer of this planet and nuclear fire will be the cure. Man pollutes, consumes and destroys and wipes out specie after specie along with thousands of different ecosystems, and depletes the earths resources for greed.. It amazes me what people can be conditioned to or settle for in this over crowded overheating dying planet. You would be surprised what people are willing to eat now that there is not enough food for the planet. Millions are starving and dying from drinking polluted water. Wake up to reality if you care.
Scientists have proven that by 2-3 years of age, Bangladeshi children's immune cells often demonstrated altered activation and cytokine production profiles upon stimulation with PMA-ionomycin, with an overall immune trajectory more in line with American adults. And this video has shown that by adulthood, their immune system has reached the pinnacle of any existing human. Just one dip in that “Gold hole” would kill an ordinary person. The fact that anyone lives under these conditions is heartbreaking.
Which is not a good thing !.. There are many side effects as result of this, notably under-five mortality rate and many long term health impact...Bangladesh Infant Mortality Rate is 23.6(2021). They are in no case what you call the pinnacle of..., Nothing good comes from pollution buddy. Here another equally important part from the same research "Although vaccines and modern medicine have mitigated this vulnerability significantly, in poorer areas of the world where pathogen exposure is elevated, many children are at risk for either infection-related mortality or, more commonly, lifelong disability such as stunting and poor cognitive development. This latter condition is often accompanied by environmental enteropathy (EE), a subclinical condition common in developing countries, characterized by intestinal inflammation, lymphocyte infiltration, and damage to the gut epithelium"
@@whatever_12 Relax. Clearly I read the report that I referenced. I understand sarcasm is difficult to convey but my “pinnacle” comment was meant to be just that... My primary intent was to show sympathy for the horrid conditions the people (including kids) are forced to adopt to due to abject poverty. Again it is absolutely heartbreaking.
This is an amazing documentary channel - honestly, this channel deserves an award of some kind! Survival of the fittest to live in that society. The people getting onto the train amazes me! I'm so grateful to have a comfortable life here in my country.
I always wondered why Bangladeshi's would come all the way to Africa especially my country Botswana & South Africa to do a simple business or job like running a Tuck-shop which is like literally a small housed stall selling bread, sweets, drinks. Life must be really hard there, was shocked to the core especially those Sewage Gold divers. Hope the country develops & has more ooprtunities for its people
this documentary was shot in 2014. Bangladesh experienced a surge of development after 2015. Bangladesh has surpassed India in terms of per capita GDP in 2020.
@Vijay Rahan sometimes GDP is not everything bro. The freedom is also gone since 2013. Higher rate of corruption than ever, it's just sad that we wont even get a decent politician even after giving up our freedom even online ( look up DSA 2018)
If it helps, this video was shot in 2013 and the country is RAPIDLY developing. It’s surpassed India in GDP per capita and has many infrastructure, humanitarian, environmental and economic development projects. In 2020, it was the economy with the best growth rate in Asia and has been among the top 5 for 7 years. Bangladesh’s GDP is higher than Pakistan’s, a country with 50 million more people, as well.
Bangladesh's human density poses both challenges and opportunities!!! Managing resources effectively becomes crucial, but it also fosters a vibrant community spirit!!! In a country with such high population density, the resilience of communities is remarkable!!! People supporting each other through thick and thin is truly inspiring!!!

Five super interesting facts about Bangladesh 🇧🇩
1. It is the eighth-most populous country in the world, with a population exceeding 164 million people.
2. Dhaka, the capital and largest city, is the nation's economic, political and cultural hub.
3. Dhaka is the ninth-largest and the sixth-most densely populated city in the world, with a population of 8.9 million residents within the city limits, and a population of over 21 million residents in the Greater Dhaka Area.
4. Dhaka suffers some of the worst traffic congestion in the world. The city lacks an organized public transport system. Construction of MRT and a BRTmay solve the problem. Cycle rickshaws and auto rickshaws are the main mode of transport within the metro area, with close to 400,000 rickshaws running each day: the highest number in any city in the world.
5. Islamic festivals of Eid ul-Fitr, Eid ul-Adha, Eid-E-Miladunnabi and Muharram; Hindu festival of Durga Puja; Buddhist festival of Buddha Purnima; and Christian festival of Christmas witness widespread celebrations across the city.

Why does everyone associate rich with awesome? I’ve met some of the kindest most inspiring people who are poor. They’re all usually kinder, more inspiring than any rich people I’ve met. That’s not to say they shouldn’t be helped because they should. There’s enough wealth in the world for everyone to live a dignified life. Unfortunately, we still have a ways to go. But I prefer seeing beauty of the soul over glitz and empty eyes.

You're from Indonesia right?
Living in Bangladesh isn't much worse than it is in Indonesia, when you look at the Human Developement Index (HDI), the HDI score of Bangladesh is just a bit lower than that of Indonesia or on the level of Indonesia back in 2010. Bare in mind the Documentary is from 2014, not very old but still 7 years, Bangladesh had a good growth rate since then, from 2014 to 2020 Bangladesh's Economy grew by around 7% every year and even in the bad last year it grew by nearly 4%, while most countries had negative growth, like India with -10%, but Indonesias GDP per Capita is still nearly twice as high.
Also Indonesia is a big country my friend lol.
So sad to hear the rickshaw driver say he’s ashamed of his work… he’s working tirelessly to send money home to his family he only sees once every 60 days. That sounds pretty honourable to me!
It really does because it is. For me these people are true heroes.
Sounds like the book "City of Joy".....

The life cycle of the gold made me chuckle a little bit.
1. Gold dust enters through the breath of goldsmiths.
2. Ingested gold is passed as stool.
3. Stool is collected from sewer by alchemists
4. Sedimentation and purification process starts and completes with less than a gram of gold
5. Gold that was once inside the body of goldsmiths is sold back to them and they complain and haggle the price.
6. Alchemists are paid and the meagre amount is split among them
Kudos for the documentary and all who took part in it. It makes me more grateful and appreciative of all the opportunities that have been thrown my way.

Yes, we all feel sorry for those that's suffered but don't ask "God" to save them. The sufferings showed in this video is clear indication that "God" does not intervened(if there's such things as God that is). Therefore, we must help ourselves. Some has suffered so much and yet, they work so hard...in times of plenty, they give all credit to "God"..while during hard times, they blame themselves for the sufferings.

This should be part of Curriculum in British schools so kids appreciate what they got
And in America too.
In USA too. Kids here are spoiled brats.
The british has ruined our indeginious culture and tradition in their 200 years colonial period.
The "Bengal sultanate" or modern day Bangladesh produced 52% of Mughal Empire GDP & 33% of Worlds GDP. Bengal or modern day Bangladesh was first to fall to The East India Company at the Battle of Palashy/Plassey. .. that's why British East India Company HQ was located in Calcutta in undivided Bengal. ..Narayanganj District just 10km south of Dhaka in present day Bangladesh was the hub for the British trade & used to call "Dundee of the East". .. Since Bangladesh has the most fertile soil in the World British East India company cultivated opium in a district call "Nilphaamari" in present day Bangladesh 200+km north of Dhaka city & delivered to China which was the sole reason for Opium wars.
The Bengal Presidency under "BRITISH RAJ" or modern day Bangladesh at the height of its territorial jurisdiction, it covered large parts of what is now South Asia and Southeast Asia ( From Afghanistan to the west to Singapore to the East). Bengal was the economic, cultural and educational hub of the British Raj .. Historically, Bengal or Bangladesh has been the industrial leader of the subcontinent & produced 52% of the Mughal Empire GDP & 33% of the world GDP during British Raj & & fueled the First Industrial Revolution in Europe & America in the period from about 1760 to sometime between 1820 and 1840 particularly with the proto-industrialized Mughal Bengal ( modern day Bangladesh), through the activities of the East India Company. ... Bengal or Bangladesh produced Tea, Jute, Opium (( Opium was produced in a district call 'Nilphaamari' in Bangladesh which was supplied to China by The East India Company & the sole reason behind The Opium Wars.))
The region is one of the largest rice producing areas in the world, Bangladesh being the world's 3rd largest rice producer & West Bengal being India's largest rice producer. Other key crops include jute, tea, sugarcane,wheat,etc. There are significant reserves of URANIUM, limestone, natural gas and coal in the districts of Sylhet, Meghalaya & Assam in Bangladesh. Major industries include textiles, leather goods, pharmaceuticals, shipbuilding, banking and information and communication technology.
When Bengal was reorganized, Penang, Singapore and Malacca were separated into the Straits Settlements in 1867. British Burma became a province of British Raj. Western areas, including the Ceded and Conquered Provinces and The Punjab, were further reorganized. Northeastern areas became Colonial Assam. The Partition of British India in 1947 resulted in Bengal's division on religious grounds.

Sir, please get yourself informed before making ignorant claims, the world can be a better place without false information being spread. No need to seek far, I can let you know what I have studied on the topic of population:
In the last 100 years, many countries around the world have seen a surge in population, including the one you may be living in. This came as a result of high birth rates and lower infant mortality rates due to better medication (an effect of the industrial revolution). For example in the US, it was the 'baby boomer' generation in the 1960s. Eventually, the state reached the point where there were lower birth rates and lower infant mortality rates, causing a more stable population growth. This is called the demographic transition model. We have seen this trend occur in a wide variety of countries over the world, with some nations in different stages in the transition model, including Dhaka, Bangladesh.
Next, Dhaka is situated in one of the most fertile lands in the world, which meant that it already had lots of people to begin with. In addition, we have not yet considered the effect of those who move to Dhaka from within Bangladesh, yet another cause of overpopulation.
Finally, the teachings of Islam DO NOT tell us to have as many children as possible, and this is simply a foundationless claim that you have no evidence to support for.
In conclusion, I hope you understand why being an ultracrepidarian and making claims with no evidence does not lead us to prosperity. Thank you.
Malaysia is good or not??

When people start dying from disease, famine and civil conflict. You will see how great life is for you. Only the rich are free and can separate themselves from the poor. So keep breeding like flies and things will only get worse. Who would be selfish enough to bring children into your world. I would rather have been aborted then live in your shoes standing in a sewer. My life is better then yours in America. but its getting worse everyday and I welcome death. Man is the cancer of this planet and nuclear fire will be the cure. Man pollutes, consumes and destroys and wipes out specie after specie along with thousands of different ecosystems, and depletes the earths resources for greed.. It amazes me what people can be conditioned to or settle for in this over crowded overheating dying planet. You would be surprised what people are willing to eat now that there is not enough food for the planet. Millions are starving and dying from drinking polluted water. Wake up to reality if you care.
আবুল।
Scientists have proven that by 2-3 years of age, Bangladeshi children's immune cells often demonstrated altered activation and cytokine production profiles upon stimulation with PMA-ionomycin, with an overall immune trajectory more in line with American adults. And this video has shown that by adulthood, their immune system has reached the pinnacle of any existing human. Just one dip in that “Gold hole” would kill an ordinary person. The fact that anyone lives under these conditions is heartbreaking.
Which is not a good thing !.. There are many side effects as result of this, notably under-five mortality rate and many long term health impact...Bangladesh Infant Mortality Rate is 23.6(2021).
They are in no case what you call the pinnacle of..., Nothing good comes from pollution buddy.
Here another equally important part from the same research
"Although vaccines and modern medicine have mitigated this vulnerability significantly, in poorer areas of the world where pathogen exposure is elevated, many children are at risk for either infection-related mortality or, more commonly, lifelong disability such as stunting and poor cognitive development. This latter condition is often accompanied by environmental enteropathy (EE), a subclinical condition common in developing countries, characterized by intestinal inflammation, lymphocyte infiltration, and damage to the gut epithelium"
@@whatever_12 Relax. Clearly I read the report that I referenced. I understand sarcasm is difficult to convey but my “pinnacle” comment was meant to be just that... My primary intent was to show sympathy for the horrid conditions the people (including kids) are forced to adopt to due to abject poverty. Again it is absolutely heartbreaking.

If it helps, this video was shot in 2013 and the country is RAPIDLY developing. It’s surpassed India in GDP per capita and has many infrastructure, humanitarian, environmental and economic development projects. In 2020, it was the economy with the best growth rate in Asia and has been among the top 5 for 7 years. Bangladesh’s GDP is higher than Pakistan’s, a country with 50 million more people, as well.
@@srafid2000 but the living condition of the general people is still the same as it centuries ago.
A country with hope and dream.
Thanks for capturing deeply. 💞
Go ahead Bangladesh
A country where minority religion are treated like 💩.
The whole time I’m watching people on top of the train, my heart beats fast, I’m petrified! You’re amazing all!
God bless Bangladesh.
Love from Indonesia.

Bangladesh is one of the fastest growing countries... hope they reap for their hardwork. One of the best countries in our region to learn from
Thanks Indian brother

@yaZ kkskejd ok
@yaZ kkskejd I never said it's the fastest though
Bangladesh's human density poses both challenges and opportunities!!! Managing resources effectively becomes crucial, but it also fosters a vibrant community spirit!!! In a country with such high population density, the resilience of communities is remarkable!!! People supporting each other through thick and thin is truly inspiring!!!

Ever since I started watching these documentaries in april of 2020 I have learned so much and been around the world 🌍 Thank you 🥰👏👏☺️
I love this series of documentaries. My favorite is when the narrator is narrating the translated dialogue.
Excellent documentary. Thanks internet and TH-cam for making the world much smaller.
I have watch this documentary like five times, I thank God for the life I have now.
Bruh these dudes be using otters for fishing, now thats genius I'll give them credit
Ikr? 😆😆 I'm from Bangladesh and even I didn't know it's a thing here.
The otters look soo cute man🥲
It was very common in Bangladesh on 90's. Now there are few more left only.
The translater is definitely making up what he's translating a good amount of the time to add dramatic moments, but as a second generation immigrant the footage of my homeland and the story behind what we're seeing is really cool. Thanks for this
hard working and humble people ,may allah bless u all my bangladeshi brothers and sisters ❤️❤️ ❤️❤️ we should thank allah always if we are poor or rich , pls attend ijtimas its full of barakah ❤️❤️❤️LOVE FROM SRILANKAN MUSLIM

Imagine standing in a packed train where you can’t move for hours and some guy brings a bucket of fish with him😂
Its the reality bro. and that bucket of fish is the only earning option of that guy.
Only solution is population control to help to recover from Poverty

Greetings from Belgrade, Serbia. Really missing these documentaries, they are really inspiring, all the difficulties that men have to endure, and they just keep going!
And the program narrator, is very good in explaining the proceedings. It deserves an Oscar Academy for sure😢😢😢
The smell in that traffic jam must be overwhelming.
The smell on the train must be worse.
@@sweeptheleg. not to mention all the flies, but sleeping in the toilet must be a real treat
Rotten jam !
I lived there 2 years in Dhaka. Amazing people. The exhaust fumes in traffic are very strong. Lovely country. Amazing hospitality!!!
