*Demi from Sri Lanka living in Botswana* if you are reading this... a *HUGE* thank you.... you truly are a gem... and a gentleman for helping out Noraly supplying her with petrol and giving her a drink and some food. You sir are a true angel.... from this KIWI in New Zealand. :-)
Since I've been following Noraly and I've seen all her videos, someone always appears out of nowhere and helps her, that girl is protected by the angels
BATSWANA calls it!! BOTHO or UBUNTU in other Languages, Being Civil to your Fellow HUMAN or MOTHO👱♀️👨🏽👍🏽 in SETWANA!! thus the WORD!! BANTU has a Deep meaning.
Wrong, the world is full of indifferent people with the extremes of good and evil that are glaringly obvious as they stand out from the masses that like to "Blend in" like in a herd. Those that are wired to render assistance do so, those that don't will be oblivious to the plight of an individual. Typically they are the ones that drive by whilst those that help will pull over and try to assist. Occasionally you get that one that goes the extra and then more. So Bryan, please think again about that statement of yours, it is only the super woke that use it, in the belief that everyone in the world is good... utter tosh, so where do men and women that murder fit in to your schema? I'd like to know.
Best show on the internet! Demi went out of his way to help you. Blessings to Demi and his family, the world needs more caring and compassion and eyes out for those in need! I have huge respect to you sir!
Your kindness in handing out gifts to strangers at Christmas has been returned by that kind gentleman. There are some really kind people, including you Noraly, in this world.
My faith in humanity has been restored. This gentleman is a true legend. He went above and beyond what a normal person would do. I would of done exactly what he did for you, helping others is what life should be about. There’s no need to repay because he knows at some point you will do the same for others. Anyone that’s followed you for more than a few videos has seen your kindness and helping hand towards others. . He’s an excellent judge of character. You young lady are what ambassadors of life are about.
Being in a town which becomes low or empty of petrol can become a bad situation quickly. The gentleman with the petrol and food was extremely helpful and caring.
I hope Demi gets to see this vid and see how much everyone is so grateful for his kindness, great to see that great people still exist, to watch tv news you'd think the world is an awful place, fake news as someone once said.
I watch your adventures from the safety of my livingroom armchair. At 64 years of age, my days of wide-ranging motorcycle touring are behind me, but I share the thrill you find in your own travels. Nestled in my right arm is my five-year old granddaughter. Her eyes are wide and sparkling and she delights in seeing the animals you've seen. At five, she claims she wants to follow in your bike treads and roam the earth as you do. Whether she ever does or not, I thank you for the many happy hours you've shared with us. She remembers you in her nightly prayers. I thank you, too, for the kindness and respect with which you engage others along your way. You model the best character for all who watch your videos. To every culture you've encountered, you have been a wonderful ambassador for all humanity. Lastly, you treat us - your online audience - with respect. In the language you use and the explanations you provide, we feel respected and treated with dignity. So, from an American armchair to wherever these words find you...Thank you and safe travels!
I meant to add (but my 64 year old brain forgot) what a beautiful soul our Sri Lankan "neighbor" has! Such selfless love from a "stranger" is breath-taking!
Hey the guy who helped is a fellow Sri Lankan. He is speaking in Singhalese on the phone. Proud of my fellow countryman !!! When your walking upto him at 14:05 , he is on the phone with someone asking him to send someone with petrol and he'll meet him halfway and get it.
What an Earth Angel that man was, buying fuel and giving food and tea!!!!!! He really is an Blessed man! But also are You dear Noraly .. You met him at the right time, the right spot and the right Earth Angel as he is! May Gods Blessings shower You always in every situations 🎉🎉🎉
I would say that my faith in humanity has been restored....but....it's been restored many many times watching this channel, the family in Iran and countless other encounters. This channel is good for the soul.
Great guy Demi! As a Sri Lankan, it was such a coincidence! When I heard him speaking to guy in Sinhala to get your petrol! Yes he is a legend! Very proud to be a Sri Lankan. Your travels inspires all of us who are watching in Sri Lanka! I have shared your clips with my friends all over the world! Take care!
Who said Angels don't tread this planet? Big thumbs up for this gentleman. 👍👍👍 Every episode is a surprise. Loved to see the elephants so close to you. God bless you.
what a gem of a person.i mean he drive so much for the petrol,bought it and dint even charge for all that and on top of that served with coffee and some snacks.this shows humanity is still around the world.really superb.
The song by Alabama Group, 'Angels among us' came into my mind, there are angels among us that God sent for us in our times of need and troubles, so you've experienced one. Its could be because you are kind to everyone else too. When I think of Uzbekistan children and the dog you rescued in Africa, you are paid for those kind deeds, and many more. Give and it shall be given to you...
In 1988 my car broke down on that same road as I was driving from Kasane to Francistown. It was dusk and the first car we had seen in over an hour stopped and towed us 250 km to Francistown. People are wonderful there. Just like Demi.
There are still a lot of good and nice people around us compared to bad people in this world. This is one example. Thumbs up to great Sri Lankan gentleman
More good than bad. It's just that good people don't make good stories on the news so all we here about is the bad to keep us people separated and in constant fear. Sure, there are dangerous places in the world but the media focuses way too much on them.
What a nice guy! You always say there are nice people everywhere but he definitely reinforced that thought. The elephant experience was awesome! What a joy it is to not have a plan eh. Great video Noraly. Let’s go!🏍🇺🇸
Yes, Demi from Sri Lanka came to the rescue, with humble humanity. But even more impressive was the drive of Noraly to just go on, the long empty road, elephants roaming, no place to sleep, just giggling about her completely impossible situation. In the absolute acceptance of the situation and simply believing that it would work out OK. No panic but hardly sarcastic remarks and giggles. Hoping to do the impossible or somehow run into some other solution. Are we amazed that she did it again? Hardly, despite the odds.
Demi is now a real rockstar…here comes Noraly and hundreds of thousands of TH-cam viewers right along 🤣. Best ambassador for Sri Lanka and a really nice guy!
How could people give 107 dislikes on this video. I dont understand. People really this is a woman on a safari on a dirt bike every mans dream girl. Oh I really like your videos and you are pretty fearless. I have been riding for years and nothing like this. I think I would be worried some town would hang me in a tree for riding an orange bike. I wanted to thank you for your video..
Ereen, I am also so proud of your husband, Damien and his magnanimity. I am in California and regularly watch the motorcycle travel episodes of Noraly, aka Itchy Boots. I was so surprised when I heard he was speaking in Sinhala on his phone at a remote place in Botswana and knew he was from Sri Lanka even before Noraly asked him where he was from. Keep up the good work. Best regards - Gamini
A normal day in africa. An abnormal day when nothing goes wrong😃 What a beautiful example if we can just support each other. I salute you Sir who came to the rescue of Noraly.
This episode reminded me of a trip I made through Ireland in the 1970s, My van broke down and a passing mechanic on a motorcycle stopped to help, he went off, bought the new part, came back and repaired the van, No charge and also took us back to his mothers house, she cooked us a big breakfast. The world is full of nice people.
the tribal woman asks " aren't you scare ?, to travel alone ? " and you responded " no people are good and they help me " ,.,,, the world has it's problems , but it's not at the individual level .. people are good and they help each other, thank you for sharing your adventure !!! :) .
people ask you if you are afraid when travelling... why would you be afraid when there are people like him in the world.... great video, great Sri Lankan !!
Sri Lankan people are the Best!! If I ever travel to South Asia again I will stay in Sri Lanka and spend my money there, it's a small gesture but anyone travelling to that part of the world please help their tourism/economy and visit their incredible, beautiful country ..you won't regret it 😎👍
That conversation starting at 17:04 is straight up hilarious, because when Noraly says; "she’s my friend." and he says; "shit…are you alright lady?" "I don’t know yet!"
Agreed. My wife and I were helped by a good samaratin Frenchman in Paris and another good samaratin Chinese lady in Shanghai, when we were abroad in 2009. The memories of the kindnesses of strangers remain close to the surface in my mind; I don't know why that is the case, but when I think of them it warms my heart.
Your Dad is a Great Man, and a Great example for you. He really went above and beyond to help Noraly. Many Thanks to him for taking care of our Noraly.👍😁❤️ Greetings from Texas. Please tell your Dad Thank You and Hello.
Hi Noraly- You richly deserve all the accolades you receive. In November my wife(64) on her 650 and I (67) on my 650 are riding from Hermanus, near Cape Town through the Namib to Walvis Bay it's going to be salig! (zalig). Thanks for the inspiration.
You know what, Noraly, the person who brought petrol is from my country, Sri Lanka. What a surprise to find a SriLankan in remote Botswana and, in your video clip! He was speaking in Sinhala - my native language in Sri Lanka - on his phone asking for somebody to bring petrol. That is when I told myself, "Wait a minute, he is speaking in Sinhala"
Noraly , you have an AURA that surrounds you with nothing but the best in humans and adventure. That Gentleman was a Legend , humanity at it's best . You have traveled through many troubled areas , but every one you meet seem to treat you with kindness . You are Truly a very special Lady . Keep them there bladders full ,,LOL LOL
There she is!! . Enjoy ... Oh yahhh, happens to all of us running out of gas... 10 o'clock., in a hurry, let's go you have 500+ km's to cover. Love when you can sneak through a road block. Love the bus block. Let's go and see some elephants. Never saw an elephant on the side of the road in Europe. Glad it liked you... Ah, the famous Noraly appetite at the elephant water hole. Like the elephant music, like the fella (bull) sneaking up to you. Good going.. Change pf plans. Great tent, hope an elephant doesn't want to adopt Savannah while she is parked outside. A quick foot bath and off again. The white car filming doesn't realize how lucky he is catching you on the video. Now you're wind gliding with a truck, help. You can write a song waiting on the highway for benzina in the meddle of elephant country. Love your courage for adventure running on fumes. I thank Davi for his help, coffee, and some food. The secret how to make Noraly happy.. Another different adventure. Ride careful... Rest well, Stay safe ...
Noraly, this was a perfect example the fact that no matter where in the world you go, most people are kind and caring and interested in the well being of their fellow humans. This gentleman gets a big thumbs up and kudos for all of us. Wonderful video. Stay safe and well Noraly. Cheers, Dan. ✌️🏍🇨🇦😃
African hospitality at its best, if you are born in Africa, or lived there a long time, people will really go the extra mile for you ! And want nothing in return. Wonderful to see the unbridled hospitality. Noraly you stayed cool under stress too.
Big thank to my countrymen 🇱🇰, who went one step ahead & brought fuel to Nuraly to complete her ride. Shocked 🙃 when he spoke to other guy in Sinhala, ❤ who also a Sri lankan 🇱🇰 🇱🇰 🇱🇰 🇱🇰, ,❤❤❤❤
It is normal for a Sri Lankan to help others. Where ever they are they will not forget the good things. Sri Lanka is known for hospitality and demi proves its with his act. Proud of you Demi
The power required to overcome aerodynamic drag increases with the cube of speed. Rolling resistance power increases linearly with speed. To increase fuel economy, go slower to substantially decrease aerodynamic drag, and raise tire pressure to slightly reduce rolling resistance.
The power required to overcome aerodynamic drag increases with the speed squared D=Cd × (Rho × V^2)/2 × A, in which Rho = density, A=frontal area, Cd=coefficient of drag, V=velocity, D=Drag. I agree with rest of your comment.
@@henri.witteveen Aerodynamic drag force is proportional to the square of velocity. Power is force times velocity. So power is proportional to V^2 * V which is V^3.
Run the highest gear you can, without the engine labouring and light throttle and stay on tarmac roads. Off roading will substantially increase fuel consumption.
@@henri.witteveen Correct.....but in any case she was comparing apples with lemons. While driving on tarmac she uses the sixth gear. On dirt she uses lower gears.
Love how spontaneously you change your plans. So glad you stayed over at the elephant lodge. I just love being close to elephants. Their sounds are so calming. And, the man that helped you out with petrol was pretty amazing. Hope you told him about your channel and that he drops by so that we can all tell him how wonderful it was that he went to so much trouble to help.
This episode brought me to tears a few times. From the giraffes and elephant on the side paved road to the Lodge with a lake that u stayed in, soooo close to the Ellies. What a view. But what gives me goosebumps, and tears of joy was that Sri Lankan legend. What a beautiful soul he has. May God bless him immensely throughout his life. Faith in humanity restored. 🙏
Be careful Noraly, better know animal's body language. That elephant bull on the side of the road was not asking itself what you were doing there.... It was telling you to get off its cloud... Head straight up, ears openned wild, its next move would have been to get in charge mode.....
I have been following you since u left India. I am a Sri Lankan too and proud to b one. That gent as you say is a true legend.That is Sri Lankan hospitality for you. You are most welcome to ride in Sri Lanka. Stay safe and ride hard.
Wow, such a great episode! The elephants, the giraffes, that bird with the amazing beak, and that super fellow who helped you out: oh, what an adventure! Good Vibrations
You always keep proving in this world of doom and gloom that things are pretty good really. Good people are everywhere. Keep on doing this to us for a very long time. It is wonderful.
The care toward others shown by the driver from Sri Lanka, well ....remarkable. I quite like such a soul as this man. A life of full goodness and decency.
A tent with a view of elephants too! Demi was concerned for possible problems, and came to the rescue. Like most, surprised at your "winging it" and what style of traveling you do Noraly
This episode is dedicated to Demi. For restoring hope in humanity

What a gesture by a man from Sri Lanka. He has really won lots of hearts and minds. Simply proud of him.

When you need help and get it that is great, but when you can help someone else, it makes you feel good. Random acts of kindness.

Your Dad is a Great Man, and a Great example for you. He really went above and beyond to help Noraly. Many Thanks to him for taking care of our Noraly.👍😁❤️ Greetings from Texas. Please tell your Dad Thank You and Hello.
Your father is a great man, I am also from sri lanka.
What an extraordinary intervention and demonstration of generosity shown by a total stranger. Stay safe.
These videos teach that if we are nice others will be nice with us.
Srilankan people are always kind ❤️ Lot's love and support Srilanka🇱🇰
Angels looking out for you!! Good man. You are so incredibly lucky. Angels and elephants in the same episode. 👍🏻👍🏻 Be safe out there.
Hi Noraly- You richly deserve all the accolades you receive. In November my wife(64) on her 650 and I (67) on my 650 are riding from Hermanus, near Cape Town through the Namib to Walvis Bay it's going to be salig! (zalig). Thanks for the inspiration.
Lekker! Veilig ry !
Good for you! Enjoy your trip.
Go! You good things! All the best for your trip.
best wishes for your ride sir
You know what, Noraly, the person who brought petrol is from my country, Sri Lanka. What a surprise to find a SriLankan in remote Botswana and, in your video clip! He was speaking in Sinhala - my native language in Sri Lanka - on his phone asking for somebody to bring petrol. That is when I told myself, "Wait a minute, he is speaking in Sinhala"
Amazing people you meet quite by accident on the road, thank you Mr Sri Lanka for helping our Noraly
Noraly , you have an AURA that surrounds you with nothing but the best in humans and adventure. That Gentleman was a Legend , humanity at it's best . You have traveled through many troubled areas , but every one you meet seem to treat you with kindness . You are Truly a very special Lady . Keep them there bladders full ,,LOL LOL
Good morning Noraly, it is midnight and a big 👍's up.
Your vlogs should come with a warning. "Caution, this channel is addictive"
Its true........this channel is very very addictive...........
There she is!! . Enjoy ... Oh yahhh, happens to all of us running out of gas... 10 o'clock., in a hurry, let's go you have 500+ km's to cover. Love when you can sneak through a road block. Love the bus block. Let's go and see some elephants. Never saw an elephant on the side of the road in Europe. Glad it liked you... Ah, the famous Noraly appetite at the elephant water hole. Like the elephant music, like the fella (bull) sneaking up to you. Good going.. Change pf plans. Great tent, hope an elephant doesn't want to adopt Savannah while she is parked outside. A quick foot bath and off again. The white car filming doesn't realize how lucky he is catching you on the video. Now you're wind gliding with a truck, help. You can write a song waiting on the highway for benzina in the meddle of elephant country. Love your courage for adventure running on fumes. I thank Davi for his help, coffee, and some food. The secret how to make Noraly happy.. Another different adventure. Ride careful... Rest well, Stay safe ...
Noraly, this was a perfect example the fact that no matter where in the world you go, most people are kind and caring and interested in the well being of their fellow humans. This gentleman gets a big thumbs up and kudos for all of us. Wonderful video. Stay safe and well Noraly. Cheers, Dan. ✌️🏍🇨🇦😃
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
African hospitality at its best, if you are born in Africa, or lived there a long time, people will really go the extra mile for you ! And want nothing in return. Wonderful to see the unbridled hospitality. Noraly you stayed cool under stress too.
Big thank to my countrymen 🇱🇰, who went one step ahead & brought fuel to Nuraly to complete her ride. Shocked 🙃 when he spoke to other guy in Sinhala, ❤ who also a Sri lankan 🇱🇰 🇱🇰 🇱🇰 🇱🇰, ,❤❤❤❤
Im also suddenly wondered bro🥰🇱🇰
Big respect to that gentleman
thanks to the gentleman from SRI LANKA, Noraly you are not alone we are all with you always and Pray for you all the time. happy journey
The guy from SRILANKA was great 👍
Big shout out to him
@@chemjort ya he was a very decent person.
It is normal for a Sri Lankan to help others. Where ever they are they will not forget the good things. Sri Lanka is known for hospitality and demi proves its with his act. Proud of you Demi
The power required to overcome aerodynamic drag increases with the cube of speed. Rolling resistance power increases linearly with speed. To increase fuel economy, go slower to substantially decrease aerodynamic drag, and raise tire pressure to slightly reduce rolling resistance.
The power required to overcome aerodynamic drag increases with the speed squared D=Cd × (Rho × V^2)/2 × A, in which Rho = density, A=frontal area, Cd=coefficient of drag, V=velocity, D=Drag. I agree with rest of your comment.
@@henri.witteveen Aerodynamic drag force is proportional to the square of velocity. Power is force times velocity. So power is proportional to V^2 * V which is V^3.
Run the highest gear you can, without the engine labouring and light throttle and stay on tarmac roads. Off roading will substantially increase fuel consumption.
@@henri.witteveen Correct.....but in any case she was comparing apples with lemons. While driving on tarmac she uses the sixth gear. On dirt she uses lower gears.
@@jptrainor You're right
Not all heroes wear capes. What an absolute legend Demi was if only there were a few more like you in the world ❤
Wow! What a nice person. He's so sweet taking time and helping you. Big big thumbs up to the amazing gentleman. God Bless him.
Agree 💯%. This channel is a breath of fresh air, in all the 'doom & gloom' we see every day in the news.
He speaks Sinhalese which is my native language! I am proud of him! Love from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰
Nice people are everywhere. If you can’t find one then be one.
I’m glad you found one Noraly 🙌
✌😘
Meeting a road angel. You're both ambassadors for a better humankind. Amazing episode.

Love how spontaneously you change your plans. So glad you stayed over at the elephant lodge. I just love being close to elephants. Their sounds are so calming. And, the man that helped you out with petrol was pretty amazing. Hope you told him about your channel and that he drops by so that we can all tell him how wonderful it was that he went to so much trouble to help.
Demi is a true hero. May he be blessed. What a legend.!!!
This episode brought me to tears a few times. From the giraffes and elephant on the side paved road to the Lodge with a lake that u stayed in, soooo close to the Ellies. What a view. But what gives me goosebumps, and tears of joy was that Sri Lankan legend. What a beautiful soul he has. May God bless him immensely throughout his life. Faith in humanity restored. 🙏
same
It's good and satisfying to see the world (Africa) is still rich of people like him.
Be careful Noraly, better know animal's body language. That elephant bull on the side of the road was not asking itself what you were doing there.... It was telling you to get off its cloud... Head straight up, ears openned wild, its next move would have been to get in charge mode.....
Spot on Patrick, but Norlay did maintain a safe enough distance at all times.
If she only knew how dangerous lone elephants are....
So kind, Demi, what a gentleman.
I have been following you since u left India. I am a Sri Lankan too and proud to b one. That gent as you say is a true legend.That is Sri Lankan hospitality for you. You are most welcome to ride in Sri Lanka. Stay safe and ride hard.
Wow, such a great episode!
The elephants, the giraffes, that bird with the amazing beak, and that super fellow who helped you out: oh, what an adventure!
Good Vibrations
You always keep proving in this world of doom and gloom that things are pretty good really. Good people are everywhere. Keep on doing this to us for a very long time. It is wonderful.
What a cracking guy, a true gentleman. To help out a complete stranger…fantastic👍
Wow what a nice man, as someone else said, he has renewed my faith in humanity. So very sweet.
What a great human being, I wish the world was full of people like this man👏🏽👏🏽💯
The care toward others shown by the driver from Sri Lanka, well ....remarkable. I quite like such a soul as this man. A life of full goodness and decency.
Its people like that restores my faith in humanity fantastic !!!
A tent with a view of elephants too!
Demi was concerned for possible problems, and came to the rescue.
Like most, surprised at your "winging it" and what style of traveling you do Noraly
Wow, Demi is a good samaritan, im so happy for what he has done, i wish to meet him one day in Botswana
Very Happy to see a Sri Lankan helping you out! We are very friendly people... Perhaps it's time to visit Sri Lanka as well 🤗
🙏
