Sawyer, 200 thousand is literally nothing. That's roughly how much Indonesian has to pay when we break the law too. Helmets are a must, it's a safety requirement.
Nessie Judge stop senyum senyum
Helmets you two!!! Need those guys! Safe travels!
Wow, imagine letting your girlfriend walk alone in the dark in a unfamiliar location. On the same day your friend told you they got robbed by the police.
seriously, that is strange and dangerous
I'm not pointing the finger, but it was raya's decision. You can't really blame louis
Reckon it was cause Raya doesn't like how Louis insists on recording while driving (hence the wobbly bit)
let me clarified something..... ( im from indonesia and i do lived in bali times to times). foreigner can drive motor bike and cars, but you guys need the appropriate license car license wouldn't work as motor bike and vice versa. NOT Wearing helmets or not waring the appropriate helmets is a crime. if u get caught doing those stuff and the police ask for bribe just point ur camera and start recording and tell them u will send this video to the KPK ( which is the indonesian anti corruption orginazation ) other then that ASK THEM TO WRITE A TICKET, and pay the em legaly. Enjoy bali.... cheers
Always best to take responsibility and pay the fines if we break the law. No matter where we are. :) Setuju!
Yeap, gotta know what you might/are/will be dealing with when travelling.
Andrea G. Panganiban Great advice!
Ahh I need to go to Bali :)
KatesBeautyStation me too ;)
Your buddy just got robbed and you take a moped with no helmet. What are u thinking. You are in a country with no law.
Police extortion?? Did some Googling and found that 200k Indonesian Rupiah is about 15 USD.
Ed Chin ya but they asked for 1.5 mil idr which is around 100 usd
Lol... but people do get killed for less than that in places like that!
Did a bit of research turns out you do need to get an international driving licence for bali or purchase a temporary one for $30 while your there :p
Yesterday, everyone wanted to go to Bali. After this revelation from Sawyer, I think most viewers will definitely think twice before considering a visit to that awesome place.
those scumbag cops. Sawyer should have reported them to the US embassy in Indonesia.
those scalawags are just waiting for a good opportunity and timing to take advantage of tourists who they think will easily get scared and give them money immediately. Imagine paying that huge amount for just a minor offense like not wearing a helmet. damn crocodiles!
1 million rupiah is more or less US$75.00. those are hungry cops really.
aSs kiCker even if he does that, they wouldnt do anything about it
Thing is is that every country has its ups and downs.. and sure these police officers may have done something that you might not like or agree, but it is stated in the Indonesian law that you HAVE to own an Indonesia driver license in order to use a motor cycle (new law) due to the increasing number of motor cycle accidents caused by tourists.
Louis, thank you for including Sawyer's account of him being extorted by the local police in this video. Exposing acts of corruption is necessary for something to be done about it. I'm a local from Jakarta myself, but as many of my fellow Indonesians and third-world country viewers have pointed out, this is (tragically) a common occurrence where we're from.
Mind you though, Sawyer was violating our traffic law which requires motorcyclists to use helmets (the maximum fine for this is Rp250,000) and obtain a local license for motorcycles (there is a procedure for this in Bali which will grant tourists a license for 30 days). The police officer, however, was extorting him by demanding that he pay on the spot - which is illegal as the police may only write you up a ticket (a blue ticket if you admit to wrongdoing and want to pay the fine through a bank, a red one if you want to dispute the incident in court). The fact that the officer fined Sawyer with the maximum amount and proceeded to take Rp200,000 from his wallet, proved that this was just extortion.
Bali and Indonesia as a whole is a beautiful place filled with very friendly and hospitable people. I'm sorry this had to happen on your second visit here (I recall you've visited here before when you were younger). Corruption is rampant because of the poor remuneration of our state employees and police, which is sad, but the nation is working to fix this we assure you. I hope the fond memories both you and Sawyer form here will outweigh this incident.
That said, welcome to Indonesia, have fun and humor us by putting on a helmet.
Hey, I see you guys are in *INDONESIA*! We live in Yogyakarta on Java. Many tourist places here like visiting Merapi volcano. If you come here, would love to meet you guys!
Martin Johnson oh hello pak martin!
***** Hi!
***** Hi!
om martin, aku mau ketemu klo ke jogjaaa, ada contact yg bisa dihubungi ?
hello martin johnson
Loving watching everyone in Bali! I'm sure it's on your guys list but Ubud is the first place we are going to hit up when we ✈️ land!! 🌅🌴 Such awesome vibes 🙏
+martyn castens yeah we are heading there for some chill time after we explore a bit!
FunForLouis Awesome! Your gonna love it 👌
Love Louis vlogs, I just want to live a life like his!
1:46
it was Salak...some kind of tropical fruit. its awsome actually, its sweet and the meat is white. be careful though, there is a big seed in the middle.
those "police" were definitely not legit, that's a really popular tactic locals use on tourists anywhere in the world.
true! they're just taking advantage of the situation you are in, to get some money for their own benefit, but not for their government.
I live in Cambodia and real police actually do this. They extort more from tourist than locals though... but usually if you talk to them long enough and waste their time, they'll let you go for a lower fee lol
Did a bit of research turns out you do need to get an international driving licence for bali or purchase a temporary one for $30 while your there :p
Jenna Rae that's so normal in Indonesia you usually only have to pay $10 but obviously they try and rip off tourist
Drone shots are epic louis!! More of that on this trip please. YEW!
Sawyer was dumb to not be wearing a helmet. While it sounds like they were pretty abrasive, it's pretty well known if you get caught without a helmet there they are going to pull you over and try get a bribe.
Sawyer is ignorant to believe that they actually were the police ;) It's obviously a scam! Anyone can get the uniform and rip off tourists. Also happens in Dominican Republic. Never stop for the "police" there.
ShiaSurprise i didn't know that but good thing i do now
Yeah they do have fake police as well, but either way even the real police are going to target you, especially if you're on a moped not wearing a helmet. Policemen there are mostly in it for the bribes they can get from tourists.
I got pulled in the Dominican Republic once whilst in a rental car, ended up having a proper fist fight with the so called Police asking for speeding money, not sure if they were real Police as they sped off. when hit
And even after hearing that Louis chooses to not wear a helmet, I get the dreads issue but come on let your hair down or something
Dear Sawyer, idk if you'll read this but that is something that also happens and is very common in africa, it's true that you sorta broke the rules by not wearing the helmet and all that and you could get into some trouble because of it but for the most part police in countries like that have the upper hand and they decide what to do based on what they feel like doing. It's like when you're a kid and your sibling does something you know they'll get into trouble for if your parents find out so you tell them to do something for you or give you something in exchange for your silence, that's just how it goes and they get away with it because it's completely off record.
Moral of the story is that countries like those have different rules from those you might be used to and they work differently so you mostly have to deal with it as best as you can. Hope it helps mate ;)
Aaron Moiche its just corrupt police
Aaron Moiche exactly what I was thinking
Louis choices for the music of the vlogs are always awesome, makes me want to grab my guitar or keyboard and jam for a while. (But then I don't cause I stay watching the vlog, and then I forget...)
Good thing 200.000 IDR is still only 15 USD. Still sucks that they have to resort to practices like that :/
and wow that surfer you shot there had a lot of skill! :D
You could have left Raya at the restuarant, driven home on moped and returned with car to pick her up. Why would you let her walk home alone, in the dark. Not thinking Louis.
When you are a tourist in Bali you should wear an helmet and have an international driver licence, at least a copy... It's not being robbed but getting fined... They could have seize the scooter until he pays...
Poor Raya, I think i'd have preferred to walk too though xD
Same. Louis doesn't seem to be the safest driver.
And then making the bad judgment call to vlog and drive one-handed despite having his girlfriend on the back and not being used to a scooter.
Ya that made me feel nervous watching it never mind being on it with him!
I'd rather drive myself ^^
To be honest I would be pretty mad if my boyfriend would be so careless to risk my health for a vlog.
oOtiniaOo I think Rays should learn to drive
Yeah, she should cuz Louis is too careless
Maybe the scooter was wobbley because you were driving one handed...
Peace out, Enjoy life and wear your helmet!
I think the girls should be riding the mopeds and you guys be on the back with the equipment! Poor things looked like pack horses. My favourite flower is frangipani too. They smell amazing! 😊
That's called corruption.
Very usual in these countries, normally local would pay a small amount of money like $50to the police so they don't get the fine of $300.
Did a bit of research turns out you do need to get an international driving licence for bali or purchase a temporary one for $30 while your there :p
Kathryn Gillies The thing is the snatch their money as a police is not correct, they should issue fines. But the government is corrupted.
Sandra Põld Lol xD
What do u expect from a third world country..that's how they earn other than peanut salary
Im thankful youtube is finally giving me notifications for your videos. I went through a period where I didnt get any.
2:03
Well the police can't actually give him a penalty for not having an Indonesian Drivers License, even if they did can, its only for Rp 250.000 (around $25). He can give sawyer a penalty for not wearing his Helmet though, for around Rp 250.000 (around $25) for each person. so remember to wear your helmet bro.
it's actually talked about all over online if you don't have say an international license bla bla not wearing helmet in the more touristy areas if they catch you or see you're a tourist they'll pull you over and try to get whatever they can off you just funny they didn't at least do a little research on that :\ you can actually apply for a balinese license too for 20~$ i believe. that would ensure 0 problems with the police once they see it
Love that Louis is traveling with his drone now. I guess he got a proper backpack now instead of that carrying case? If so, good move! Also I know how Raya feels. Got bit by a dog once and now I'm paranoid of any dog that isn't super friendly 🐕
You're so inspirational 😍
ahhhh so jealous, come bring your drone out with us next time :) Love it !!!
The fruit you're so confused about is "snake fruit" or "salak" in bahasa Indonesia
And about the motorcycle thing.... If you don't have the license, at least you put the helmet on so the police won't treat you that way
He did have the license but it was for bribery those robbers did
So Raya was right about the "snake feeling" :D
Whoever reads this, I hope you are having a great day! :)
Thanks! Hope you have a great day too!
thats sweet though I hope you all have an amazing day too
LukeIsRecording no.
Becareful of the police scam in Indonesia. It's common here especially for tourist in Bali
awesome
keep up the good drone shots.
The brown fruit is called "salak" also known as Snakefruit.
In Indonesia it's common to eat it if you have problems with your stomach (diarrhea).
Them drone shots! Louis. Amazing! Can't wait to see more of Bali :)
I was stopped twice by police when I went to Bali. They also asked me to show them the license, they were dissapointed when I show them the international driving license because they couldn't ask for a bribe.
As an indonesian.. HAHAHA
I can't wait to see Sawyer's video with the footage about the police robbing him. Crazy. Something similar happened to me in Mexico.
*COME TO YOGYAKARTA, INDONESIA!* We will show you around some fun places if you would like! Keep smiling! :)
Martin Johnson Hello, Mr. Martin
Welcome to the third world Sawyer lol
AJCiti its not a third world lol
melanie perry it is 😂😂
+melanie perry indonesia is a third world
Echo Beach was one of my favourite places I visited in Bali! I saw the most gorgeous sunset there.
it isn't rob. it's law. you can't drive motorbike without helmet. they won't stop you if you do that
cant wait to be here next year god I'm so jealous of you guys right now back in the UK
I love your videos you put so much effort too them
hi! It is "salak"... we call it Salak fruit in Indonesia.. you should try it... btw, enjoy your vacation in Bali. There's so many beautyful places you should go!

Louis, that fruit that feels like snakeskin is called "Salak" in our country!

So rude leaving your girlfriend to walk with the big bag while you were on the scooter
You're such an inspiration!! Thanks for sharing your incredible adventures with us
LOUISSS I'M FROM INDONESIA, SO HAPPY YOU'RE HERE!! HAVE FUN IN BALI
You still need helmets. Kind
* of obvious don't you think?
yes
Looking forward to seeing you ride some waves in the next vlog/s Louis! :)
Having sawyer in the vlogs is such a throwback to two years ago
1:43 in indonesia we called it "salak"
I was doing an Internship in Bali some months ago... You were exactly in the same places I was!
Reminds me of so man good memories!
Finally you are here!!!
Hi louis, im from Indonesia and twice a year i often goes to Bali,
anyway welcome to Bali, Indonesia, hope both of you enjoy this wonderful island,
i guess i would like to recommend one of the most good local cuisine Indonesian foods in Bali, served with buffet style, its named Warung Bambuku its in Sunset Road, North Kuta, beside the Trans Hotel, you will find a small traditional style restaurant with colorful windows you can see from the outside, and thats the place, or ofcourse you can google it :) Try the rendang meat, it taste awesome! ;)
Anyway, enjoy your trip and adventure in Bali, love this episode in Bali, and yeah be careful with some cops in Bali, sometimes they play tricks with foreign tourist.. if you still have a time in Indonesia, visit Yogyakarta city its awesome city too, im ready to take you around there, Cheers ;)
Aaahh... I'm going to Bali for this weekend and I really really want to meet you guys there, hope I got that chance. Is the villa at Seminyak area, because its look like the villa I'll be stay. Oh my, I'm soo excited to go there, even more and more, after I watch this video.
wow looks insane on my bucket list
glad you went to echo beach - many a good night spent partying till the early hours there dancing round the fire at sand bar
Did a bit of research turns out you do need to get an international driving licence for bali or purchase a temporary one for $30 while your there :p
Very true. It is not difficult to get an international license before you begin your travels!
Those fruits are snake skin fruits. They are the texture of an apple but are a little chalky. They taste like a mixture between a pineapple and an apple. I sort of like them but I would definitely recommend trying them for something new!
Bali has a lot of small and unique cafes! try watercress cafe in Canggu and you will love it! go to Seminyak district as well.
Incredible shots
u should going to the "potatohead beach club" on seminyak beach o "la plancha" on 66 beach! enjoy ur sunset there! welcome to Indonesia
yeah, the exact same thing happened to my family when we were in bali, but we were in a long (5-6 hr) taxi to a different part of the country. Happens sometimes in thailand too, although probably not as often.
1:39 that fruits is called "Salak" in Indonesia.. you should try it.. the taste is really good, combination between sour and sweet..
SIICK WE ARE ALMOST NEIGHBOURS!!! I live next to echo beach!!! welcome to bali bro!
I dig Sawyer's thinking on the tattoo/life. Also, that's a good rationalization for dealing with the theft he experienced.
Louis I'm so happy that you guys enjoyed Indonesia! You need to grab some food at La Plancha or maybe Motel Mexicola to eat some tacos!
That dog on the motorcycle was awesome!! So cute!
come to yogyakarta in java fun for louis! its great place
or magelang u can hiking in mount merbabu,merapi volcano, and andong with amazing sunset. see you
Just hearing Sawyer telling how he got robbed pissed m off. Also, you could have walked with Raya back home.
Louis lives THE BEST life!!!
Nathan Haych bottom!
Hi Louis, welcome to Bali, Indonesia!
If you love coffee you should definitely trying out Seniman Coffee Studio in Ubud. And i do recommend to go out stay for a night to Nusa Penida for an amazing view. And if you love waterfalls you could go to Buleleng area bcs there are tons of beautiful waterfalls in there like Aling-Aling Waterfall (you could jump from a waterfall cliff and you could SLIDING ON A WATERFALL (like literally waterfall sliding) too in here ive tried it once lol im not even kidding you should check it out) and Tibumana Waterfall. Oh and about the police, as an Indonesian citizen, I'm really sorry because what the police did is certainly not right about the license but you did break the laws in Bali without wearing any helmets. By the way, you should check @explorebali in instagram for tons of amazing destination and @balifoodies in instagram for tons of amazing restaurant!
Anyway, enjoy Bali! 😊
I live for drone footage. In love 🙌
you should go and skate at pretty poison, you would LOVE it
Awesome video Louis such an inpiration
go to bandung please !!!! there's so many amazing places here
The day is complete after watching your vlog bro!!
if you like surfing, you must come to Nias Island, North Sumatra. Many surfer and travellers has come there. Enjoy there bro...
I love Louis vlogs so much.who else does?
(sorry if I got his name wrong😅)
I'm a local (balinese) and that happened to me before too, you do have to pay that much for not wearing a helmet if you dont want your license to be taken (its so complicated to get it back). But when sawyer said they snatch the money 👎🏼 And the fruit you are asking is called salak/snakefruit! You should def try it 👌🏼
The snake skin fruit is actually called Salak or snake fruit and is delicious. I tried it when I was in Bali. This fruit was new to me so I gave it a try when in Bali after our tour guide recommended it to us. Great vlog as always!!
The Bali police sound exactly like the majority of the police in South Africa 😂
1:39 it's called "salak" salak fruit is an local indonesian ancient fruit only grow in indonesia
taste sweet and tangy
the fruit that you were wondering about is salak..from outside it may looks scary but actually when you peel it off and eat the inside its so good!its sweet and has a big seed on the middle...you should try it while you are in here (:
Police in Bali does the same thing to locals too. It happened to my friends when they drove around Ubud back in 2014 if I am not mistaken. They want that same amount of money because what my friend (who drove) had done anything wrong at that time. Same as Sawyer she refused to pay, they grabbed her driver license which is not a Bali drivers' license (Jakarta) with the nastiest comments "tone" (because in Balinese they did not understand) from them. Gees. Like Sawyer she took the high road and enjoy the rest of holidays there.
That fruit name's salak, and it's sweet/sour (because there are variation of salak, I guess it was salak bali (sour), not salak pondoh from yogyakarta, java (sweet)). You guys should try it!
yay
Gosh i miss Bali so much.
Love your Vlogs dude. Amazing!!
does anyone know which camera he's using in this video? I checked the description box but I am unsure which one he is using. thank you! :)
just come over my hometown at Phuket, Thiland.
Sawyer has such a happy vibe :)
