Deadliest journeys - Bangladesh : Survive in chaos

- 00:00 Bangladesh, the most populous country on the planet, there is a saying that the cheapest thing is life. From the first images of the film, the term overpopulation takes on a concrete and sadly inhuman dimension. for example, who could imagine that a man willingly dives almost naked into the sewers of a capital of 15 million people in the midst of human excrement to fetch gold? This is the only job Gazi can do. Wounds and chemicals eat away at him. He knows he is condemned in the short term. But this is the only way he has found to feed his family and especially to allow his children to escape their destiny of misery. To cope with the absurdity of a hellish daily life, many rely on religion. Each year in Bangladesh takes place one of the world's largest Muslim pilgrimages. For the event nearly 5 million pilgrims flocked from all over the country. Buses, boats and trains are stormed. Passengers are everywhere on the roofs, on the axles, hanging from the windows. An almost unmanageable crowd overflow in a country with obsolete infrastructure. At the sight of these barely believable images, one wonders if it is faith or self-sacrifice that allows Bangladeshis to thwart the traps of overpopulation and thus keep smiling.

It's one thing to know you're lucky not to have such a hard existence, but it's a whole other level when you see it firsthand and your level of gratitude rises 10 times over.
There’s is absolutely no order in that country. I could never live like that 😳
The guys panning for gold in the sewage were the most ridiculous thing I think I've ever seen. I can't imagine the desperation that led them to try that.
I am stunned. I don't know what to comment. Just say... God bless humanity.
Really sad... I cannot even stomach to look at it. Just imagine the smell and the filth...
Desperation creates desperate measures
I thinks it’s worse that they actually have someone willing to buy their muddy shit buckets 🪣 ....
Countries+Continents
No wait!!.. am i the only one addicted to these "deadliest journies docummentaries."..these documentary are lit...
"My wife died a few days ago. She wasn't paying attention."
"You seem very heart broken about it..."
"She wasn't paying attention. She was killed."
"Riiiiiiiiiight..."
😐
That made me feel sad and mad at the same time
RIGHT!? I had to play it back. Seems like he wanted pity (money) for his sob story. Scamming really runs through some of these people‘s veins.. smdh.
That crowded train must have been so...fragrant.
Yeah, I thought so too.
I imagine a mix of sewage, BO, diesel and curry

The salesboys on the roof literally risking their lives at any given moment.... definitely another kind of world😳

WESTERN : OUR LIFE IS HARD
BANGLADESHI : HOLD MY TRAIN
Western : Hey , lets build up a civilized welfarestate
Bangladesh ; Allahu akbar
@@psychoweasel6157 western civilizations: hey, why dont we invade the entire world and steal every country's resources and enslave people to make our nations richer and build a civilized welfarestate?

Exactly WHAT has Norway stolen from Bangladesh ?
@@psychoweasel6157 Exactly when has Norway been colonized and had their resources exploited? And when did specifically refer to Norway?
Bangladesh only gained independence in 1971, after seperating from india which was under british control, at which point the country had absolutely nothing to its name. No natural resources either. To see it become one of the fastest developing nations today in such a short period of time from absolutely nothing to becoming a king at textiles, and the only comment yall ignorant privileged mf's in the west can squeak is 'aLlaHu aKbAr!1!!1!!'
@@unrealgalaxy9669
Ok.
So they gained independence from UK 80 years aga and independence from India/paki 50 years ago.
Can you now please tell me how many hundred years it takes to write down the safety rule "its forbidden to ride on the roof of the train" ?
( As far as you know I might as well spend my days being bombed by Putin so keep your stupid wokeshit about "privileged" to yourself )
I am addicted to such lovely docs and the commentary is on point!
The kind of documentary, I would always want to watch.An eye opener.
This channel is one of my favorites ❤️
Regardless of their situation, they are still trying to find some ways to survive to sustain the needs of their family, one of the documentaries wherein u Will realize there are some people who would like to be in ur spotlight than dealing with their deadliest journeys, keep going Bangladesh ❤
These are great documentaries. Respect to the people of these countries who suffer because of the incompetence and corruption of their governments.
And the fertility of them
Please... If any of these people were in the government it would be the same thing... Humanity is corrupt and it doesn't matter who's in charge; the outcome would be similar
The government is making them breed like rabbits.
They are suffering because of orthodox belief and high birth rate .
Don't blame government and escape.
blame on their own people and goverment because of not moving and undevlop belief.
I'm just speechless. Man needs to be very grateful if you can feed the whole family three times a day and feed your pet as well because some people are suffering too much. it hurt me alot. May God open doors for them. One needs to be kind to the needy no matter what. God bless you guys for the documentary
Amen
More education and less "God" is what these people need to develop. A common refrain in incredibly poor countries.
Am from Jamaica 🇯🇲 and I give thanks for life
Jamaica is a lovely place! I've visited a few years ago and loved it. The people are so nice. 👍❤️ Greetings from Prague!
I am constantly amazed at the adaptability of us, as humans, to our environment.
True, but also look how we destroy that environment.
This is how the entire world used to live, though without the powered vehicles. We ought to be amazed that some have evolved beyond it or that some have not.
It’s disgusting. Like a bunch of lice.
@@ampa4989 No, people in other areas of the world used to live much,much, much better since thousands of years without vehicles. This thing here is misery, lower human level. India, Pakistan, bangladesh are really awful, maybe is the culture, maybe islam, maybe corruption, maybe all the above, these people live worst than the homo sapiens.
They're not "human". 20% of their dna is unknown, no other race has it. I have a guess as to what it is, and I'm sure "they" know, but we never will.
I can't help doffing my hat off to the photographer who had been on the top of that old colonial time's British train to film those dangerous momentous footages from the top risking his own life. So you certainly deserve a pat on the back for a job exceptionally well done. I wonder if anyone else who feels the same w/ me,,,,,Thoroughly enjoyed watching & appreciated it to the core at the comfort of my home in California.,,,,, (06/09/23)

@@samuelstephens368 hey Fargo...happy 4th
Indeed. Certainly the videographer on the top of that traditional pioneering period's British train filming those hazardous momentous footages from the very beginning deserves a pat on the back. Take care my dear, and stay safe in a world balancing on the precipice of an irreversible climate change-related cataclysm, perpetuated by the irresponsibility of those corporations and private entities which deem capitalistic profit to be worth greater than the prosperity of humanity.,,,,, (17.08.23)
Watching this documentary makes me realize that im soo much blessed!,
Word, America is blessed compared to Bangladesh
Humanity is a mistake. It must end soon.
You were born blessed , but now you have a target on your back . Just like ALL Aussies , Europeans and North Americans . Believe it !
Agreed.
You will not be saying that when we get into a nuclear war.
I love this channel 🙂 these documentaries are very entertaining.
Really love this channel n favorite too...plz upload more videos... 👍👍👍
What an eye opening video. Thank you for sharing.
Can we say "over population"?
Maybe, a natural experiment of nature's biological laws is eminent ... like plagues, wars, starvation....
narrator "the fumes are bad for their lungs...but they don't seem to realize it."
two seconds later
the guy "the fumes are bad to breathe in...it hurts our lungs"
BRUH lmaooooo
you are grateful that you live in developed countries ...
because you will not experience a level of difficulty like this ...
greetings from Indonesian people ...

Bangladeshi man: Allahu Akbar
@@oskorei123Tell me what choice did the poor kid have in where he will be born ? yeah i agree that their ancestors failed them but you do realize that muslims used to be on the top of the world at a time but now are in situations like this because of their wrongdoings and sins
Standing in the sewer covered in other peoples shxt, in the middle night to find enough gold dust to eat. I will never complain again.
I guess this is hell. now we know how it looks like.
me too
Never ever complain my friend give thanks for wat u got everyday 🙏
I’m a black British child of Jamaican immigrants grew up from an infant and know how hard the bangledeshi people have it!! They been colonised just like my people!!My kids moms half bangledeshi also so i pray for you guys ❤❤❤❤❤
@@Mashamillions you should be thanking the British
Excellent documentary !!!
It was one of the best episodes of the Deadliest journeys series 🇧🇩
One of the best documentaries on Bangladesh.
Very well documented
I love your videos 👍❤️
Good Documentary 👍🏻
Makes you appreciate what we have here in the US. I cut back on my whining and complaining
No wonder everyone wants to come to America. We have it so good here and many take it for granted. I am truly thankful.
Trust me.
Us Brits tried helping them. We even gave them their railroads.
Look at the state of them now.
They'll still complain why didn't do anything for them.
Indians do the same.
@@HaggisMuncher-69-420you colonized and took resources
Western: Africans are poor and suffering
Bangladesh: hold my bag
Africa is not poor, people are made to believe so, we have everything we need. All we need to do is hold our leaders responsible
It's crazy how the most religious of countries suffer the most
Religion just helps them to endure this life. The poorest countries are the most religious.
Religion should be a tool to set you free and enlighten your consciousness. When you see people in uneducated, impoverished and corrupt countries, their religious leaders are often not teaching the full lessons of the Prophets. Nor is the audience at a stage to develop spiritually, if they are just struggling to survive day to day.
@@-whackd if you're poor and hopeless then freedom and enlighting of your mind are the last things you think of. Religion is a better alternative reality in which you believe you can live after your death. Religion is a hope for better life.
Saudi Arabia is rich, nothing to do with religion. Its government and corruption
@@lorenebonsu146 it’s rich because of oil money
Clearly we’re not all dealt with the same deck of cards in life. Some of us are so lucky to have been born in a different environment, leaps ahead of what they’d have to reach to just to get out of the slums.
Some are born as animals only to suffer in human industrial farming and die a horrible death in order to become your steak.
That’s why I thank my family for helping America fight the communist, they were one of the lucky ones who came back with America when they left Asia. Other wise I’d probably be on some mountain in Loas or Thailand picking chilli peppers with no shoes on and probably be on this show.
@@reivang7196
Political ideology plays little role in development of culture and people.
It's the resources and land that makes any nation powerful.
Laos and Thailand are destined to be vessel state of Superpowers because of this very fact.
You are lucky because your family escaped a lost cause of tiny ass nation, not because they escaped communism.
China is communist by ideology and is a Superpower today, all because of that land and resources, not because of political ideology.
@@Kyra_of_Kerkyra here we go...eat tofu be vegan where they kill everything around to protect your beans , every bird turtle rabbit frog snake so you can brag about not killing anything to survive....
@@reivang7196What a cool story, man! Are you of Lao or Thai descent?
Good stuff guys.
My favorite channel👍
stunning...thank you
Some people here are saying its their fault for living like this, or their corruption and population or whatever but you should know there's no justice in this world. Not every country was dealt the same cards. After the British rule, the literacy of the region was less than 10%, there were no industries, universities only wars and famine and hatred. Millions dead from British orchestrated famines lying on the streets. If you think this is bad imagine how they lived under the british. Its hard to get up from something like that.
P.S. im from India but I know how deplorable this region was just a few decades ago.
I love the ones with this narrator, his voice and humor is on point.
Narrator can make or break a Documentary
I love this channel. Its help me to see the world. Tq very much
100% super documentary of bangladesh , no doubt , greetings from land of tropical rain forrest archipelago
AMAZINGLY AWESOME!
Total respect for this family man God bless him
Keeps us informed just in case we travel abroad 💯
And why on Gods earth would you ever leave the USA ???
Appreciate your Spawn.
priceless insights too often so heart wrenching
Jeezzz that honking and those ringing bells from rikshaw 😅😅😅 I would get crazy on how much noisy pollution is there
😖
Beautiful vlog
Thanks a lot.
Love the narrators tone and inflection, I don’t know why but he always gives me the giggles 🤣
I love this narrator too, he does so many and his inflection always gets me. 🥰
So this is where my more expensive jackets come from..
I live in BD, Its really hard here especially for poor class but rich are making good money and corruption makes this huge gap between classes. But never feel it the way you presented , however I am used to that train journey .
Corruption is part of the reason why the environment is destroyed and fishermen cannot work anymore.
The cull is now an imperative having watched this documentary for the second time.
This is the craziest episode yet!!
Man shoes are a luxury. We are so lucky in highly developed countries. We could barely get anybody to do simply good paying work here in NA
This is perhaps the best documentary of Bangladesh I've ever seen. I will be living in Dhaka for a year, will be such a challenge!!! 14th or 15th time I went and I've stayed 10 weeks for my longest stay
Where ur from
Why are you going to live there?

Waoo now i love may life when i see how pepel work hard .respect from Bosnia
This narrator is the best!
I live in rural Mexico & thought the people here were poor. Oh my goodness, life is hard for everyone, and everyone has someone else to be jealous of.
My company was implementing water bottling plant in Dhaka and I have spent 2.5 years over there.
I was expecting just 1970 type of Kolkata but nooo.. Bangladesh was completely different. I don't know how it became to different after it because a separate contry.
yeah, ig when the infant mortality rate went down/agricultural and medical efficiency went up the country ended up with hundreds of millions of people packed into a small area surrounded by international borders. My grandad was born in dhaka in 1931, before moving to kolkata around 1943. To say things have changed would be an understatement.
Wow, I was nervous just letting my kids play in the back yard....
These kids are riding on broke down trains
And most of them will be dead by the time they reach 20.
@@celticlofts Not really that straightforward. Everything is a question of probability, but people survive more often than die.
I will never say im poor again! Being from the UK, our government provides quite alot in comparison to the Bangladeshis Government. Its absolutely disgusting that keep all money, that's meant to provide for its communities. I wish these hard working people well.
😊 kalian termasuk Orang yang sabar dalam lungkup hidup dan semoga kalian di berkahi kesehatan dan kebahagyan serta kemudahan rejeki oleh ALLAH .. ❤
Instead of building temples ,churches and mosques, build a bridge or metro ways to have a proper roadways and give comfort to the public for a peaceful journey everyday.the priority to people's basic amenities are never thought by the leaders of this country.
First time ive ever had to fast fwd thru one of these. All I coupd do not to throw up. YOU KNOW WHAT SCENE I'M TALKING ABOUT.
Fantastic 👍🇧🇩
Country have completely changed in 10 year's good to see old memories but Traffic is getting worse every day even after opening the MRT and BRT 😓
Half of Nepal’s population lives in Dhaka itself and both the countries are almost same in size . Strange .
Documentary one of my best
From Thailand to Bangladesh.. 🙏🙏🙏💕🇹🇭
Well no matter what no matter how the traffic is or how much population or congested it is i still love my Bangladesh and you are most welcome to visit my beautiful country thank you all ❤

Small World NC here too, I agree amazing documentaries
Come to Oakland and see me
Great documentary. It makes me see how truly blessed my life is. No desire WHATSOEVER to go to a place like that. I’ll stick to my quiet little home in the Florida woods.
i dont think watching documentaries on youtube should dictate which places you should and shouldn't visit. Just like how watching documentaries on florida's crime rate shouldn't deter people from visiting florida.
ok then
@@CedarMountainsnow this is an accurate representation for the POOR in CITIES in bangladesh, which is just 1 side of the story. Remember, your watching a documentary on deadliest journeys, of course the material is gonna solely be based on the hardships which bangladeshi people face. But that's not to undermine the endless natural beauty and the plentiful of resources and hospitality which the nation and its people offer. If your tryina decide on which places to travel, your gonna have to derive information from multiple sources offering different perspectives if you want a complete picture of the place. And of course it goes without saying that you do need to take serious safety measures as a woman traveller, just as much as you would in any developing country for that matter.
I think its best if you stay there too. Not all of us are meant to truly experience life. Some of us are made to saunter through it absently.
I went to India once. And I never want to go back there. It's awful.
Much love from damam city
Thanks,
At which point do you just walk instead of sitting on a bicycle for 6 hours? I think it takes approximately 1 hour to walk the distance of a 15 minute bicycle ride.

Honestly I think I'd rather be in the African bush than living in this city. Those dudes panning through shit for gold🤯 my jaw dropped. All the woke crybaby's in the US need to watch this and be thankful. Even the poorest people in the US are some of the richest people in the world. Incredible documentary! Love these videos 👍
What do you mean by 'African bush'? The mentality of Africa is a jungle need to change, as a Kenyan you need to come and see what we have, better life than you can imagine, better infrastructure, better education system and I can go on and on. Africa is not a jungle neither is it a bush.
Yep I'm definitely thankful of leftovers from the night before
These are some of the things that makes feel am atlist better than someone somewhere, I don't complain alot
Just watching this makes me claustrophobic
In 1971, the Bangladesh region people were blaming West Pakistan for the poverty. Who can they blame now? The pilgrimage in Bangladesh is the most stupid thing. They have no idea of the corruption or care for 1 in 8 children has to work to support the family. This money of pilgrimage should be spent on social services to these poor children.
This is what uncivilization looks like, when colonist drew imaginary lines..
What are they doing on that pilgrimage??

Right you are
They dont plan for the future and end up poor
The birth rate is rapidly falling. The reason the population is high is because bangladesh can grow loads of food but also because the country is industrialising rapidly.
