- The Killing Fields Just out side of Phnom Penh is The Worlds Most Disgusting Tourist Attraction. I take a visit and tell the true facts of the Khmer Rouge take over and the Genocide that took place in Cambodia between 1973 and 1978
Thanks for an impressive Vlog Sean
Cheers buddy, Big Thanks
Great video. I went the killing fields about 13yrs ago but it seems to have changed a lot since then.
Keep up the good vids
yes buddy, a little bit more investment in to the walk way, it was not there in 2011
A bit of history! Interesting. Proper vlog man! Thanx for sharing! And skol!
Skol buddy
Pretty gruesome that is, at least its not being hidden. Thanks for showing us the way
Currently in Cambodia, went S21 prison and The Killing fields last week. Its hard to believe that this stuff happened less than 50 years ago, walking through both places made the hairs on my body stand up. So sad and scary to think what humans can do to another
Yes buddy, not the best places to visit, Cheers
This is a pretty hard place to see and try to digest what all the signs say about the sights there. I have been here 3 times and I always leave really sad. Noticed you're around Siem Reap, where I am also. Maybe I will bump into while you're here. You have a great channel and make some really funny videos (just watched your Koh Kong and Pub Street video from a few days ago). Thanks so much for taking the time to go to the Killing Fields and making the video available.
Cheers buddy
Great vlogg, 👍I've always wanted to visit the killing fields. It's on my bucket list. I worked with a Cambodian man that escaped the country when he was a young boy, amazing story he told me.
Awesome
G"Day Sean thanks for another great vlog
Love watching g them keep up the fantastic work its really appreciated G'day
Go Day buddy, cheers
Such a harrowing place mate, shocking that such atrocities went on. My heart goes out to every single one of them. Vlog so informative mate, thank you. Now I need a happy ending!!
It is a tough place to visit buddy, Cheers
Great video Sean 👍🏻
Thanks
Cheers buddy, Big thanks
You’re awesome. Thank you for educate the people who had no clue what’d happened in Cambodia. I’ve seen the movie “the killing field” twice. I cried both times. How unbelievable humans can do such evils to innocent humans.
It is buddy, Cheers
Top vlog sean top info m8 .
I was there in 2014. At the detention centre. 1 of the surviving members was there giving interviews. I see him.
At the time he was being interviewed. So I thought il just go about my business .....view all detention centre info and catch him afterwards.
Dropped a bollock.....by the time I came out of visiting the detention centre he had gone..
Take care bud xx
Cheers buddy, there was a guy outside the Killing fields telling me he was a survivor and wanted to tell me his story, I asked if he was Khmer Rouge, he left me well alone, I hate these tourist traps and anyone who gets involved in them
@@thedeadhorse yes m8 dude would of wanted to tell his fake story then demand money from you.
Good move Sean.
At the prison centre in the city it was a mechanic who was detained by khmer rouge. Prison centre called tuol sleng camp. His name is chum Mey.
Hes there most days......to tell his story.....all official and not asking for money.
Gutted I missed a chat with him .
Cheers Sean good vlogs m8 .....keep em comin m8.
What pushed humans beyond the limits of decency, horrifying when that happens on mass scale.
It sure is buddy, cheers
Love the vlogs watch every day, if your back in Norwich I want to meet up and buy you a beer
Cool buddy, Ill be back in May, Any relation to that mad Drummer Buttie by the way
Yes he’s a relation of mine, keep up the good work
When I was there the human bones were sticking out of the ground everywhere. Sad.
Have to agree with you re PP, apart from cheap beers, didn't see anything about the place that I liked really, couldn't wait to leave. Give me Thailand any day!
nothing in Phnom Penh buddy a horrible city, Cheers
Sobering vlog, you go to these places so we don't have to, much appreciated, bet you can't wait to have it behind you.
Im well glad its out the way and behind me now buddy, Yes, cheers
Very informative 👍
Cheers buddy
“It's a holiday in Cambodia
It's tough, kid, but it's life
It's a holiday in Cambodia
Don't forget to pack a wife”
“And it's a holiday in Cambodia
Where you'll do what you're told
A holiday in Cambodia
Where the slums got so much soul”
As a kid I remember Blue Peter launching an appeal for Cambodia, I was shocked then I still find it shocking today
Yes buddy, that was the first I even heard of Cambodia, an I did the charity stuff that the schools around the UK put in place to raise money to end the famine, Cheers buddy
Cool video Sean, when are back to Bangkok for a beer?
cheers buddy, but I just dont know
Thanks for the lesson. I went to Cambodia in 2009 and chose to skip the killing fields tour. I just wasn't ready to absorb the horror of events. Thank you for enduring the "in person" emotions for all of us watching this one. I know it's not your first time there as you stated but this video was my "first time." Some day I hope to prepare myself enough to visit. Who knows, maybe I'll resign this location to the videos only. Great videos as usual. I'm surprised the "world" hasn't forced you to get a proper media license. 👍👍🍻
Cheers buddy, Media License, Hmmmm
That was hard to watch….but thanks
This is a really good story you are telling and was nothing like I ever imagined. Shocking really. Thanks for sharing the experience.
Cheers buddy
Please do the vlog on central market! 👍🏻👍🏻
Its dull and boring buddy, same old toot, cheers buddy
cheers buddy. Pretty depressing stuff and probably not a place I'd want to visit. Very graphic and simply leaves nothing to the imagination. Well done on the presentation Sean. It will be interesting to see how the views stack up for this one. Possibly do well considering the topic. 🤩
Cheers buddy,
Hi, loving the vlogs as always, I'm flying to phnom Penh on Thursday from bangkok, cunrrently in pattaya with my lovely lady, awaiting the last England group game, could be messy lol, but what is the best route once there to see the killing fields. I'm concerned I could be caught unstuck with touts selling me tours and would prefer to make my own way. Many thanks, Chris
you will be Ok in a tuc tuc buddy, $10.00 you should pay, Cheers
Brother I went there, it put me in a very dark place. It was a terrible place and terrible event.
The freakin West put this in motion and then did nothing. It took the Vietnamese to stop it.
Stay Safe, and Stay Blessed !
Cheers,
Cheers buddy, Yes the Vietnamese did put a stop to it in the end, Thankfully
US were using the Khmer Rouge to fight the Vietnamese as a revenge for losing the Vietnam war. Journalist John Pilger exposed it in his Cambodian documentaries
such an harrowing place....absolutely dreadful time 😓😭
I guess the people who did the killing and torturing are still alive? 400 killing fields must of had quite a few people doing the murders…
close to 1/3rd of the population at the time, almost 3 million
Great Vlog of a piece of history that should never be forgotten.
Cheers buddy
Don't forget the US government and CIA supported the Khmer Rouge. Even after the Vietnamese troops pushed them out to the Thai/ Cambodia border. John Pilger documentary "Cambodia Year One" will be a good start. Politics is a dirty business, and the people are the last to know. Take care. 🙏
Yes buddy, Im sure I talk about that in the Vlog
so cool
I went to them killing fields from
Pattaya 16 years ago when I was 23 my first year in Asia. Pretty sobering even as a toe rag I didn’t fancy a night out after. Also recall checking into a hotel and the first thing they said was “no sex tourists” :-)
Ha ha, cheers buddy
Gud day mate that was some vlog and
I could in your face and emotions you were moved
Brilliant how could anyone do that to other humans
You need to go and get pissed now enjoy your happy ending
Ha ha, yes buddy, I did, Cheers
Unbelievable, like you, I remember the BBC1 program Blue Peter doing an appeal. But to think even now, more bones are being unearthed some 40+ years on, a very sad place.
yes buddy, the extrication took place and landscaped the shallow graves, but the reality of the site is that the hole place was a massive grave, and yes still bones and clothing coming up due to the heavy rain, Cheers buddy
I still remember seeing all the black and white photos of the poor buggers before they were executed at S21😥
I went and saw S21 and after that could not stomach the killing fields. This is beyond comprehension.
yep, you got that right buddy, Cheers
It is truely a flea of a place. Filthy and a generation or two away from being a place worth visiting.
The KR haven’t gone away, they are still a political party, Pol Pot was never charged with any crime & lived out his days happily in southern Cambodia.
yes I know buddy, helped by the UN, Cheers
Thanks!
Nice one Mark 👍🙏
Cheers Mark, Big Thanks Buddy
Aww man Sean. No words buddy but thanks for showing us. 😪🙏
Cheers buddy
What can you say about this Vlog Sean ? It’s hard to stomach what one human can do to others ( just wicked) reminds me when I was in the army in Germany seeing Concentration camps in Bergen-Belsen and also visited Stutthof !!! Strange presence about both places very still 🤔🤔but a great Vlog Sean ,so take care stay safe and enjoy your happy ending buddy 👍🙏🙏😳😵💫
Big Thanks Steven, It is a hard vlog, attraction to stomach, an like those you have mentioned does leave you with a strange presence, All the best buddy, Cheers
Took courage to visit this place well done Sean. Tuo Sleng S21 torture prison (which was a pre war school) in Pnomh Penh is another very dark place to visit. Not great upliftng experiences but they are stories that need to be told🙏👍
Cheers buddy
Good vlog Sean. Seen the film killing fields and that nutter Pol Pot. Seen loads of documentarys about the khmer Rough. That's one sad place.There lots of places in Europe that would also turn your stomach.
Yes buddy I bet, Cheers
A true tragedy pol pot took the country back to the Stone Age. Whole community’s destroyed family’s devastated. Don’t want to get political but the Khmer Rouge still played a part in politics into recent times. Hard vlog to make mate.
yes buddy, they are still every where and even in Power buddy, Cheers
Very interesting that mate, even having been there a long time ago, it has changed a little but still harrowing to watch.
Cheers buddy
Good dayyy buddy. Fantastic vlog but very harrowing place the killing fields. But it’s hard to get your head around what people can do to others. Our world is a fucked up place. Great watch as always mate. 🍻🍻🍻👍🏼
It certainly is buddy, Cheers
Brilliant vlog Sean 👏. I think it's really important that this place exists so kudos to the Japanese business man even if he is making money from it. Needs to be seen right. I had a walk around the Birkenau concentration camp when I was in Poland. Terrible. That view from you balcony wow and what a feast 🤤. I myself am having a ham & cheese sandwich for my tea hehe. I think you've put me off going to Cambodia for now but I don't mind mate I was 50/50 on it anyway. Can't be doing with too much litter.🍻🇰🇭
R man, the litter hear is very bad buddy, such a shame as there wernt any hear in 2011, yes I know its a tourist attraction perhaps the worst on the planet, but i do agree buddy, The story has to be remembered, Cheers buddy
Good to see they have installed wooden walkways. When we visited there were no such thing and we were pretty much walking over bones. I was discussed that it was a tourist attraction at the time but the story needs to be told and the feeling you walk away with is unforgettable. Well covered mate.
Yes buddy, As horrible as it is in its form, it does leave you feeling like shite, but yes the story has to be told, Cheers guys
Respect sean I've been there
Cheers buddy, I have now been there twice
It's been modernised since I last went but I can't remember the year . But it was 2 Dollars to the pound at the time .
You could walk around the mass graves and bones and clothing was sticking out of the ground.
When it was liberated by the Vietnamese the only 2 countries recognised the fall of the KR. They were Afghanistan and North Korea.
@@properjob79 I believe it was either 2006 or 2007 . You could see the blood still splattered on the walls in the school .
Sad sad sad history in cambodia. So brutal like japanese invasion.
Wow that’s all I can say
Cheers buddy
1979 after Vietnam won Pol Pot, Thailand support Pol pot until 1989. after UN talk with Thai 1 billion USD open the border help the Cambodian people in Thailand refugee camp.
Cambodia land control with four army.
1 - Pol Pot army support by Thailand
2 - Cambodian National Liberation from Sern San and Sor Keng
3 - Cambodian National Liberation from Fun Sipich, family King
4 - Cambodian National Liberation from Hun Sen support by Vietnam.
after France and Indonesia help Cambodia with Paris peace a greement of 4 army sign 1991 until 1993 UN era in Cambodia.
Its a insane story, our American government cannot be trusted , the Chinese government joined the United States in supporting the Khmer Rouge.the United States again supported the Khmer Rouge in the UN as the "legitimate" representative of the Cambodian people. With U.S. backing, Cambodia would continue to be represented in the United Nations by a Khmer Rouge diplomat until 1993.The Khmer Rouge's ultra-nationalism made them violently suspicious of the Vietnamese Communists, even though the Khmer Rouge's conquest of Cambodia had only been possible with Hanoi's support.
@@de_kl439 that's is interesting , more proof America is nothing but a fake facade that hides the fact USA is driving the bus drive for communism fascism terrorism and drug cartels in the name of freedom one democracy... "bring me another bucket." Monty Python .
Which one is it😂😂😂 I’m just reading Haing S Ngor at the moment
12th April US Ambassy leaving Cambodia. US Lose Indochina war. US never Know a bout Cambodian Love Sihanouk King, but US bad relations with Sihanouk King, and Support Lun Nol. Cambodian angry Lun Nol a bout destroyed of Royal throne, chang Cambodia to Khmer Republic 1972, and 1973 King Sihanouk anounced to all Cambodian support King back to power joined with Khmer Red military support by China. 1975 Pol Pot Betray the king and Detention of the King in the Royal Palace 1976. China not support Pol Pot during 1977 they know the Sihanouk King not power military but Thailand always support Pol Pot until 1989.
Very good..Thanks Thailand one time owned most of Cambodia.Siam
These monsters bayonet babies bro.

Me and a friend got on a plane to Cambodia in 2013, we went to Thailand first but didn't realise they only let you stay 30 days so we had to go somewhere, on the the plane we were both really hung over, my mate started reading from a magazine about the killing fields, he spoke for about 30 seconds, I stopped him and looked him in the eye and said "I don't really wanna go there do you?" He said no and so we got another plane up to siam reap straight away haha
well done buddy, There is nothing in or around Phnom Penh worth seeing, Cheers buddy
KISSINGER-
Gud Day ! ✌
Go Day buddy
No photos. have some respect for the dead while telling the story. Like auschwitz tho these things must be remberd and seen or it will happen again. the palace is worth seeing and there are some near by temples
yes buddy, but if you watch the vlog you will understand that this is not respecting the dead at all, Its a tourist attraction, Its a money collecting business, So FUCK OFF
@@thedeadhorse No. I will happily call out your bullshit when i see it cunt
@@thedeadhorse Don't have a go at my peaky blinder mate he was showing respect as much as he could be. And yes I've been there you pay to get in and they give you a tape recorder with numbers at different sites to stop at and listen to the atrocities terrible human tragedy but they make money from tourism
