University campuses across Hong Kong have become the latest flashpoints in civil unrest entering its sixth month in the city. Following intense stand-offs with police during the week ending November 15, 2019, student protesters have built elaborate defences around universities. The campus blockades have shut down streets, motorways and rail lines -on a scale perhaps best understood from an aerial view.

HK looks like the end of the world for survival right now.
Suitable for the walking dead shooting location
No, it’s only some places. Most parts of HK show no sign of protest or disruption. Just business as usual. The media makes it look like the whole island is like this - it’s not.
Yes， business as usual if you don’t leave the house or travel through the city. Any time one can get harassed and intimidated by the thugs of young punks. No Cantonese, and you are not 白人， here is hammer head as a souvenir from HK movement. Back terror is here. HK government, your next move
@@ReportsOnChina does this mean protest is almost ending?
Green Eyes in China it used to the most busiest street being attacked now its the universities who knows what’s next? I have been to HK many many times in my life. Two days ago I was there, at around 9.30 p.m. in causeway way, almost all shops are closed. Only 7-11 and a small street food are open so we can get some snack. I’ve never seen so little people on the street of HK before 11 p.m. in my whole life. Bricks were taken away from the streets. although I was lucky to avoid and protest these two days (they just switch their battleground from busy commercial areas to universities) I can still see many damages they have done to the city, roads are blocked by bricks, marks are everywhere, many shops in certain areas are closed even in the day time. SOGO has been closed in the consecutive two days. Many stations are closed when I just landed HK (I spent 1.3 hour to travel a 40 minute traffic because both metro and buses do not stop at Causeway due the to previous day riot).
I was wondering when drones were going to be used.
The filming for this clip was done with a drone.
@happy mass shooting usa DJI's culture or business model is not Chinese at all, most people would not have any doubt DJI is American if not told. DJI is the first truly global company ever born in China, they don't just sell globally like Huawei, but think globally in every way.

William Agreed!
Ajisen Ramen not much use for them.
The winner of this year? Umbrella makers in China.
😆😆😆
dont forget the mineral water too
@@Mk-qc2yt you forget the laser pointer
Nope!!!! As a Hong Konger, China won't sell any umbrella to us, in all the shopping website, no umbrella is found, so the umbrellas are made in hk at that time
the last time i went to hong kong some years ago before these protests, they had vending machines in their train stations where anyone can buy umbrellas lol
At least from this video, we know one thing,
"it's amazing to see how big the hongkong university is"
Well its from different universities in hk tho, from a local hk guy
FREEDOM IS A VALUABLE THING- IF YOU WERE THREATENED ABOUT LOSING YOURS WHAT WOULD YOU BE PREPARED TO DO TO KEEP IT.
THESE STUDENTS ARE NOT IGNORANT.
KEEPITCLEAN By taking away others freedoms? To defend against a so called oppression from China?
@@mmcken3354 you are just talking about the general principles. any relationship with Hongkong?if does pls tell us
@@mmcken3354
FREEDOM IS VALUABLE! BUT THE MEANS OF GETTING IT IS *NOT THROUGH VIOLENCE* AND ROBBING OTHER PEOPLES' FREEDOM!!!
IS FREEDOM TO YOU BEATING UP PEOPLE WHO DO NOT STAND WITH ME? IS FREEDOM TO YOU BURNING THOSE WHO OPPOSES ME? IS FREEDOM TO YOU BURNING PROPERTIES OF THOSE WHO SPEAK OPINION THAT YOU DISLIKE?
WHAT SICK FREEDOM ARE YOU ASKING FOR? THE STUDENTS ARE IGNORANT AND MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL, THEY ARE NOT FREE AND FLEXIBLE LIKE WATER BUT *FASCIST*!!!

Hope there is a resolution. Such a wonderful city collapsing :(

In Hongkong

Easy. Sign up to join CIA；free training for all.
You can start right now it on the country called Hong Kong 🙂
How Hong Kong prepare when area 51 aliens invade their territories
@Chloe Lin Yes, US is preparing the road for Hollywood to film a movie in HK.
@StanislavyeungHK ummm I'm not sure about that because that area is basically just green, well that's what all I can see from my grandad's neighbourhood
The true winners:
Umbrella, Gloves, Goggles, Helmets, Pepper Spray, Tear gas, non lethal bullets companies *STONKS*
welll now lethal bullet companies too. Police are beginning to use live rounds too
I wonder if they are still aware of what they are fighting for or just using this as an excuse to vent all their anger on the society. Keep fighting on like that and you won't even have a Hongkong to protect.
Exactly!
Are you sure this wasn’t shot in Los Angeles? Because it looks exactly like Los Angeles.
Looks better than los angeles
They might be able to stop zombie apocalypse but definitely not tanks or armed vehicles.
Tom G we all saw how violent these protesters now, government need to bring peace and order to the city.
can't use military until 2047 !!
tanks or armed vehicles? zombies don't have that.
@Tom G Which is why China hasn't make the move and is unlikely to do that. There simply isn't a motive for them to intervene. It is not the chinese people from the mainland being hurt here. It is just the fellow Hong Kong citizens.
A hail of bullets from the sky will end them all. I hope they are prepared.
So many angle of camera shots...is this a movie production or protest? Media’s feast
Michael Zhu seriously can u blame them pretty smart
Lol movie called Hong Kong vs corrupted government 😎
Drones aren't expensive, anyone can get shots like these.
Physika I don’t see in Syria or Chile has drone flying around or a wasp of ‘journalists’ with expensive camera and phone around protesters, where are the coverage there?
Victor otero I knew it! Now all make sense it is a show! I thought hk people are not that crazy
3:08 On the right side "Congratulations Class of 2019"
Ahh the irony
we already know who losing the war....HK people itself.
Not totally. US and UK are also loosing because these asylum seekers will end up in UK/US and demand money from tax payers. In the long run US/UK will have a huge crowd of uneducated criminals collecting asylum money and all their is to make petrol bombs. Let's home they leave HK sooner than later.
@ClickNSpam not really many Mainland people will go to HK and China will rebuild it within 1 year. While all the yellow trash end up in US/UK collecting free tax payer's money. Long run US/UK suffer. I really doubt these idiots want to immigrate to mainland.. very likely they end up as asylum seekers in US/UK. And US/UK said they will support them. Let's hope they keep their promise.
@ClickNSpam it's okay. They will end up buying from the Chinese again anyway
@ClickNSpam No lose No gain
While people in the city next door, which they still look down to, designed and made this drone.
and exported through Hong Kong
@@MrRedmer Hong Kong isn't the only city with a port. How is the water from Shenzhen?
@@MrRedmer really?? China can't export its own merch? HK belongs to China genius🤔
@@bigpepper88 they are export from hk, due to some trade deal that the hk government have with other countries. However, those idiot seem very happy to destroy this deal through the "help" from US government. Really don't know what they are thinking about. They never think of there future, without this deal, millions will lose their jobs to be honest
@@frankun8755 they're thinking about their future and dont want it to be as slaves to China.
Im concerned with the school staff especially for the like cleanning or cafetaria staff, they must be struggling finanncially now since the campus is shut down and they dont get paid on time
The kids dun really care, to them everyone is supporting them. Some pain to the pocket is what they expect you to endure.
Don't worry the NED raised over $10b for this coup
Everything is as planned
Imagine having to clean all of the mess.
Imagine having to live under authoritarian regime.
Years of education gone to waste. Hopefully in the end they have the decency to clean their mess and not leave it to the aged cleaners.
No, they won't
Now, they have every hk citizen against them ! At the end of the day they don't even have a right to complaint the government! cause they haven't even paying tax yet
they threw bricks at a 70 year old man cleaning in his head and also the military came to clean with other city citizens
@@yy6094 no, in your dreams. I support the movement as a hongkonger and always will.
@@adrianatgaming8640 Well, show your action, PLA base is right there for you to attack
Cut off their food supply then see how long they can keep going
The food is running low in HK. Local people are suffering... but somehow the rioters are fine eating free buffet every day. Someone is donating food and water to them while others are starving.
They ransacked the university convenience stores and canteen storage supplies. I think there is a video showing them having a buffet...
@@RetardskillMe so much for the rioters saying that they do not loot businesses & stores! if they ransacked the university's food storage for free stuff then they are looters after all!
SiSiSiUSA I hope the keep donating
C Archer better than being robbed of freedom of speech and democracy
Never thought that video games become a reality. It's scary!
It's going to look really great having "Class of 2020" from any of the Hong Kong universities on your resumes now!
HK universities should just scrap class of 2020, nobody will employ murderer and terrorist
It looks like a junkyard rather than a fortress
yep .. those small bricks won't stop police trucks with big tyre
danny apparently they stopped a water cannon truck
This shows how serious they are against CCP
lol, yet they complain when police trying to charge in? jokers..
Please explain how stopping public transportation can affect CCP in China?
Imho, protesting in HK can't really challenge the CCP controlled central government.
Pls explain the relationship between : against CCP & destroy their own city.
This kinda makes me sad, to see my alma mater turned into a fortress....
Hong Kong citizens is like living in a massive zombie attack
CCP are the Zombies
China and Russia will make the whole look like this
Fuking police should be cleared！
They are destroying their own city smh. It’s gonna take a while to rebuild...
Lina Xu incorrect. They are protecting their city; this would’ve never happened if the Chinese didn’t come along.
@Jiahao Shu well we don't blame income inequality on the ccp, do we?
@@adrianatgaming8640 Maybe you should focus on your government first then
@@twistedestiny146 well some problems still originate with the ccp. namely the suppression of the pro democracy camp.
It's only a few areas that needs to be repair. Stop exaggerating please, 99% of HK areas are still working like normal despite all the protest.
I was planning to apply here this yr, then gave up...
@@tingwong0227 a mans store was burned down despite the owner being a supporter of the rioter. I guess they didnt give af.

These people are pitiful. They think they know everything, but nothing.
At first, I supported their cause. But now I see them destroying businesses, destroying the city, causing arguments with citizens, hurting innocents, that where I drew the line.
@@markcalvelo1909 I share the same sentiments, they have completely went out of line now.
Pathetic indeed.
Whether you agree or disagree with the way things are going you gotta admit that the students are resourceful. #FreeHK
Nobel price for Hong Kong protestors. Innovative and Intelligent. Unbeatable creativity. That is what Hong Kong is famous for. We support you from USA and India
Funny thing is that many still believe they are under law of rules
R L Yes they are !
You don’t get it n/c you are a communist :(
I can’t wait for the complaints of those cleaning up the mess
Ya...poor street cleaners, besides how fast do they clean, like after every protest, the streets are clean as if nothing happened(aside the broken fences and spray paint)
If the hk government will be as wise as South Korean in 1987, I'm sure they will clean up after themselves
Didn't a 70 year old man just get killed for cleaning the streets from bricks?

They still have food to eat? That is interesting.
They ransacked the university convenience store and canteen storage supplies..
@@RetardskillMe then we will see how long they can survive.
@@jjzh2002 Pretty sure they dont aim to keep this up for the rest of their lives.
celtic barbarian the beginning peaceful protests were the right way
Jenny Zhou most of them have left yesterday due to the terrible living condition that they never expected. As you can see not so many of them are in the video.
SCMP have been doing some great reporting lately.👍
Even if they get their rights back, the economy would be dead. What are they gonna do then??
They will f**k themselves.
They no need economy to their country... they only needs umbrellas, masks, bricks and stones, petrol bombs and all terrorist weapons will do, they dun even need their brain already...
They wouldn't clean up that, that's for sure.
What rights did they lose?
We rebuild our economy from scratch. Send as to an uninhabited island, these student will rebuild Hong Kong there
When a baby throws a tantrum, best to ignore and teach after.

@@ayenul4256 They chose terrorism to serve US agendas so this is what they got.. On the way to be a new Syria asian version

LA homeless skid row is worse than this because of the disease in it.
Protest fortifications are first class in the western world? What the heck are you talking about?
It will be so funny if the police just ignore them
ignore them is exactly what is happening right now. After all if the general public doesn't care about the road blocks, why should they care?
They are "defending" themselves from nobody.
True, the only reason police was there is because they throwing stuff under the bridge which is a public transporting area, now the transporting is shut down anyway so police dont bother mess with them at all...........
Exactly, they are not disrupting daily life of ordinary citizens, so why would cops risk going there & risk being accused of police brutality? Common sense is a bit lacking in there right now. LOL

I'm surprised they didnt try to knock the drone down
This is part of their propaganda... As most of Hong Kong media is pro rioters
@@chaudhry1972 why shouldn't they be??? Afterall the demand is genuine. And the protest, it has gone to this level as a result of China controlling over the govt. of HK!
@@gollotaga1663 but when your protestors end up burning people with gasoline and trying to take guns from the police then you have a problem
And they at least bothered to take the man who was shot to the hospital
If it was done in the US , they would be sent to the morgue.
@@gollotaga1663 The demands are genuine? You sincerely believe that to release ALL of the arrested rioters is acceptable?
@@zebraimage Yes. All the arrested ones be released because they were arrested while the protests were peaceful. Funny part is, most of these arrested people are already dead or missing forever. Even their families are missing.
Im sure those kids are having fun destroying everything and being rebellious
I would say somewhat but this wouldn't been a problem if the goverment wouldn't of taken so long to fix an issue after the entire country rebelled against a law and they just decided to ignore till they had to take action 2/3 months/later because it was starting to get out of hand. But it was already too late by that time people started taking more action to change the laws that are corrupted in which the government did not expect.
I never thought I could see a real life zombie apocalypse era
Did you guys play The Division?
Destroying your present to create a better future?
Gandhi didn’t do it, Mandela didn’t do it...so, why didn’t these great leaders do it? It’s because they’re wise, and knew that hatred begets hatred, and hate is destructive. Playing with hatred is like playing with fire, it is dangerous, and you’ll only get one thing - BURNT!

What I don’t get is why the universities allow them to do it in the campus property?
Negotiation is the only way out of the problem.
What right do they have to vandalize the University grounds that they go to in anticipation of a an attack that will likely never come?
There were protests at the university
You are correct, police will most likely not attack them. They are contained in one area & cannot destroy and disrupt public utilities.
This situation explains heavily how twisted the mentality of the rioters, they are quite far off certain realities.
Now, they claim that the occupants are not students but violent hooligans from outside who had taken over the campus. The principal calls for help. This is another CIA-planned trap (like Yuan Long MRT). The police should be very cautious. They might get killed.
@@anozira1361 - bcoz the rioters were throwing dangerous objects on the road. That said road is now closed. So general public is not complaining anymore. You are the one who should do the reading. Or get some common sense too, it was clearly stated in the video also that the roads are now closed but you still failed to understand the implication. LOL
@@ktkska8886 - thats why its better to let the universities bear the consequences or the destruction of the rioters. Universities are cuddling left wing protestors anyway.
Sorry being insensitive but these shots looks like walking dead scenes 😅
How is it insensitive?
😅😅😅
No need feel sorry. The protesters often reminded me of the word zombie. Perhaps many others felt the same.
Kudos... To the brave man and women of Hong Kong... Especially the students.... You have building support in America...
What is the song used for this video?
You know whats funny about all this?
Nothing
Yes exactly, why are people making jokes about this in the comments? Disgusting.
Normally, I'd be all for protesting for democracy, but what these guys are doing is going too far. Resorting to violence, destruction of property, assault, and to make matters worse, disrupting the lives of others who just want to do their job.
This is just sad.
Why they block the harbour tunnel.... thousands of cars and buses use this tunnel to transit..... Terrible....
Hello.. can you please tell me politechincal university current situation
If Hong Kong was a high school this would be the world’s best senior prank 😂
Rioters had just killed a 70 year old city sanitation worker for cleaning up their mess; they should be made to clean up their own mess!

They built hongkong, so building Hongkong back to its best wouldn't be problem for them. But to get them back to normal Govt. have to hear public demands!
@@wizkid3295 exactly!
What is the reason behind the protest?
Actually its very easy to solve this problem:
1.Give the innocent students 1 day to evacuate.
2.Those who are staying are considered rioters and are to be arrested.
3.Cut of water,electricity,and roads leading to the campus (so the students cannot re stock on supplies.
They will not last 3 days without water.
4.They will flush themselves out to the police without the police needing to confront them.And the police will have an easier catch waiting further from their barricades.

They can make an apocalyptic movie now, the title is "Train to Mainland China"
I like this idea.
It's not Train, it's your bullet.
This is what happens when the people think they have supreme power. The young people of Hong Kong are ruining their city, if they were to leave China, they’d be in such a bad societal and economic position that their “new nation” would just go to waste. If this is how they believe the should fight for their city, then I don’t believe they should get it back; their actions are irresponsible, dangerous, and they’re just being nuisances. I entirely understand why they do what they do, but the reason does not, in any way, shape, or form, justify their ill mannered actions.
Cedric Siriwardana Ill manner is a huge understatement to describe what they are doing.
