oh my god. Hearing about his father taking his own life almost made me cry, hearing about him sitting at his fathers grave, drinking next to it. I feel so terrible. :(
Oh my god. The thing about his dad is so goddamn tragic. "I was coming to save you, why would you do that?" Broke me omfg. Hope he has peace in his life now because he seems like a lovely person
I love how Ben was so respectful throughout the video. Learning about someone’s horrible experience is not something to take lightly and I’m happy Elie is able to spread his experiences. Personally I did not know how strict the Amish were and I wish that was better displayed. Finally, Ima get me some jello cookies
Well, personally, i used to respect the amish alot and think they were just cool farming people, but now i know they abuse their horses(not all do, but most of them) and they definately don't treat their other animals well, yeah i have beef with the amish. I mean... im vegan, i have impossible burger with the amish.
@@IAmAnItalianPizza I would have thought they would treat animals right. I guess you can’t have a non corrupt place anymore. Gotta have something that’s rotten.
What a blessing it was Ben to meet you and hang out with you for the weekend when you came to Ohio to get a good look inside my old order Amish Cult. I’m so glad you got to taste my aunt Mary’s cookies because she makes the best baked goods. Only if my own Amish mother would allow me to come visit her like aunt Mary did without the Amish clothing on
Will your aunt Mary have any consequences if they find out she spoke with you? I have a stricter Mennonite family with very strict Amish friends and learned if they spoke to someone who was shunned they would also be shunned. I guess they would have no way of finding out unless they saw this some how.
@@WillowAnne0 yes, Mary will actually get a lot of backlash for even speaking to me and then for selling me something and taking the money from my hand she could actually get two weeks of discipline which is called shunning
I had some Amish friends at my school. They told me all about their lifestyle and how so many kids at would take their lives because of how miserable it was there. I couldn’t imagine living that way. My whole family is thankful for this life god has given to us, and we keep the Amish in our prayers. ❤
personally if i hated my life in the amish community and i hated the people in it, i wouldn't want to be buried or associated with them. obviously the way that the shunned dead get treated is absolutely horrible, yet it's almost comforting to know that eli's father and the other man's final resting place is removed from the rest of the dead in the cemetery. it makes people remember who they were and why they did what they did, which honestly could inspire more people to reflect of the amish community and why it would lead someone to taking their life. idk if this makes sense and this is just my opinion
Just a genuine question, do all devoted Christians believe this too according to bibles etc? Because I heard that, the acceptance is only present among modern mindsets.
Trick to have good luck You need 1 banana Metal Nails a black marker Step 1 on the banana write the name of luz González Montiel (ángel of good luck) Step 2 drive the nails into the banana Step 3 bury the banana in a place with earth where they cannot dig it up Step 4 bury the banana on the ground and leave it there forever
I grew up with Amish people. The women are mistreated. I once knew a woman who had the longest hair I had ever seen, I told her how amazing I thought it was and she told me how she wasn’t allowed to cut it or she would be punished. I saw Amish people differently. But there were so many amazing Amish people, the Amish kids I used to play with were some of the nicest I’ve ever met.
This was like an actual documentary. So educative. Love this video where we learn about other communties and people different than us and respect them too.
Ben has spent 24 hours with the Vegan Teacher, gone to a nuke zone, called the Russian government, hacked COUNTLESS zoom classes, started a minion cult, and joined the Amish. Truly a jack of all trades. Edit: all of y’all keep reminding me of other crazy shit he’s done 😭
i think that he may had said something about the camera previously and then something like “i wouldn’t take that in there” maybe he didn’t like the camera
I cried so hard about his dad. I can just feel the emotion he felt thinking about the torture him and his dad went through just to show respect to his community.
Eli’s story about his father made me cry. It really is sad that he had to go through that, along with his father. I hope that things can change because they shouldn’t be shunned because of suicide and they should be buried with everyone else since they are still people 😔
is it just me or is ben's videos starting to get emotional and scary. Like the story about Eli's dad was really sad and when you went to jail it was just scary seeing how those prisoners were killed.
Eli’s story is so sad and shows the abuse that can be hidden in such a closed environment. That being said, it sounds like he grew up in pretty strict Amish community. I was Amish for 16 years of my life and my experiences were mostly all good and healthy. The Amish culture is so nuanced and each church has slightly different rules, so it is very hard to lump them all together. Most Amish people live in a healthy loving environment, and that’s why we don’t see hundreds leaving the church daily.
It's so upsetting to hear so many stories about loved ones having to live up to certain expectations, and then get ostracised later on when they don't conform to those standards. These stories are often forgotten, and it's important our generation learns about them. I had heard about the Amish community ages ago, but have forgotten ever since. These small details shape the next generation, and we must learn from these mistakes.
It’s horrible how when some people notice another person struggling, instead of helping them and supporting them in the hopes of their recovery they shun them
Hearing how his father took his own life right before Eli was coming to get him. Oh how it broke my heart. Eli I hope you’re living a good life and happy. Many hugs! Stay strong buddy. You’re amazing.
This Thursday I went to an Amish town and we were given a tour of the lifestyle, and I learned so much through this video. During the tour they made it seem as though becoming Amish was one of the best things in this world and they never spoke of anything horrible like Eli did.
The church system operates like a cult with power and control over the people, but they do not want you to know that until after you get baptized and make an oath to follow the rules the rest your life
The Amish community is full of rape, incest, beating one year old infants, etc. Drug dealers, thieves get punished more than pedophiles in the Amish communities do. Victims told me stories of inappropriate touching, groping, fondling, exposure to genitals, digital penetration, coerced oral sex, anal sex, and rape, all at the hands of their own family members, neighbors, and church leaders. Both parties have to go before the church, and confess about what happened and the victim has to ask the male perpetrator for forgiveness for having tempted him. It’s the woman’s fault. The women are also warned not to report to police, to outside authorities. If they do, they are going to be ex-communicated by the church.”
what i really like and respect about ben is how when he meets people with these videos, even though some may have differing views/opinions, ben is still so respectful and lets them talk
im genuinely so obsessed with the way u manage to capture life in your documentaries, very excited for your future projects (please continue doing this)
15:00 it just makes me so sad when they put people who died that way away from everyone. Last year I went out to my grandmas hometown and we went to the graveyard and I saw a unmarked grave at least 50ft away from all the other graves and it just had a broken wooden cross that someone had put there. That grave was about 100 years old but the cross was only about 20 years old :(
really loving these mini documentaries that you've started! thank you for giving us a new perspective and depth on topics/ things that would rather just be meme material or shallow to especially our generation. I am a fan of your drama mama series and adore the fact that a similar, fresh take and meaningful content is growing over this channel over time. thank you once again!
i live next to a whole bunch of amish. and one thing i realized is that they really care so deeply about people. every so often they leave a loaf of bread or a jug of maple syrup and your door and it just makes me happy to know they care.
I like that Ben is exploring the world and showing us a lot of things as a content creator. He was a social pranker, now he is a social investigator. I like this content a lot, thank you, benoftheweek
Eli’s dad’s story is very heartbreaking. I hope that the Amish start respectingthe grave more, it’s quite disgusting what they were trying to do to it. Eli is very kind for driving Ben around and sharing his story. Wishing you the best Eli!
Omg the part where Ben went to eat in some old folks' house is so brave and awkward... Mostly awkward tho... The story about the guy's father was so sad. He was about to get outta there but, that happens.
I have a few minor issues with how some of their animals are being treated (I AM SPEAKING AS AN EQUESTRIAN, NO HATE IS INTENDED) I thought I would share them 1. The horses are stood in spaces where they can't move and they're stuck eating 2. The fact that the man can't think of the name for the horse confuses me, if that horse is in a barn you go to, you should know his/her name 3. Thank you for reading this, this isn't hate I'm just sharing my opinion
6:00 as a Pennsylvanian I can say that the going around the buggy’s is not out of anger, but out of convenience for both of us , in fact they’ll usually wave you on to go in front. It’s like a pact we have with them 😂
7:25 I grew up around the Amish country in Maryland/Delaware. Many Amish communities DO allow things like electricity, internet, and cellphones solely to conduct business. They can also ride in vehicles as long as it’s a non Amish driver.
Keep up the awesome work Ben. It’s nice to see you bringing awareness to both good and bad sides of Amish colonies. As lots of people these days just take the whole thing as a joke. I can’t wait for the next video!
I'm glad Eli escaped from the toxic place he has been raised in. It was a brave thing of him to do. And his father's death was pretty sad like I would literally stay as far away from a community that shunned me because of my own decisions and just not treating my father with the respect he deserves I hope Eli lives a happier life, thanks for showing us his story, Ben
I actually didn't expect Eli Yoder to be in this video, he is actually really nice and wants to help the Amish, I see a lot of his videos on TikTok and I do believe he is doing the right thing. Keep up the work Eli if you are ever reading this, same with you ben, You make really good videos!
I was in Plymouth, Massachusetts on a road trip and staying in this hotel. My family and I were by the pool and this Amish guy came over and sat with us and this other group and they started talking and he told us how his ex wife’s father was the leader of a cult that shaved off Amish’s beards. He told us how he had to take his two daughters (who were at the pool) away from his wife. I think you can see the whole story online somewhere but the thing that surprised me was that this guy had a flip phone and to get there he had this older couple drive them around on a vacation. Also in Plymouth there is a deli called “The Yellow Deli” and it is run by a cult called the “Twelve Tribes” it’s very interesting stuff.
my step dad grew up amish and things were so fucked growing up thankfully him and his siblings got out when he was 18 most his family is still amaish tho and things are crazy
5:38 reminds me when someone talks about something that you don’t even know about or they mumble and you just play along and act like you know what they’re saying 💀💀
i recently went to pennsylvania, where the amish community is very active, and it seemed so nice and simple from the outside. i never would have guessed that the amish had all these deep dark secrets. also, i was sick as a dog before watching this video and now i feel so much better. thx Ben 💚💚
Aww I love Eli, I hope he’s alright he’s such a warm soul and has so much heart! I’m so glad he left the toxic environment nd I’m glad he’s living happily
There is an Amish community not too far in my state MO. Bowling Green. It's so interesting to see the horses parked at Dollar General. The part about Eli's dad got me though. Lost my father a couple years back to fentanyl. I'm glad it seems like Eli is ok.
Eli sounds like such a nice and genuine person. The bit about his dad was so sad but it was so brave of him to share it on the internet. props to every amish person who gave ben some insight into the community
The whole part about Eli's dad is just sad... Thankfully Eli is living happily these days, though.

Eli sounds like such a nice and genuine person. The bit about his dad was so sad but it was so brave of him to share it on the internet. props to every amish person who gave ben some insight into the community
When he talked about his
dad :( 16:08
Ben hanging out with an Amish family is how I actually in literally every social situation ever 💀
This is one of the saddest things I've ever heard especially when they talked about his dad

"Hey what's your horse's na-"
"mack."'

the part about eli’s dad made me sob im so glad he’s doing better
0:20 what little tiny cute creature was that 😭🥹
The dog
A Dogo
A dog obvi
ben is literally the definition of “never let them know your next move”💀💀💀
i live in ohio and i saw the amish at a concert... must've been breaking rules
ben is sometimes normal crazy, but then sometimes he’s actually insane to do the unthinkable
I love how Ben just goes really deep into something and makes a video out of it to show us his ideas>>
12:32 i thought he was gonna threaten ben
Me too lol
Now Ben can say that he is AcTuAlLy apart of an Amish Colony! They grow up so fast 😢
HE FINALLY LIVED HIS DREAM OF BEING AMISH WE’VE COME SO FAR
The way they stared at him when he started eating LMFAO 😭😭😭😭
im sorry but the amish dinner part kinda felt like a horror game, but they were nice 😭
After all of these years of Ben on Omegle saying he was churning butter with sister Megan he has finally joined the Amish
how do they know abt his tiktok if they dont use phones-
Ben puts his life on the line for us❤
