    ☠️ *Out of this world beauty mixed with the darkness.* That sums up Rio de Janeiro for me. I saw some things on this day that won’t be forgotten easily and please note that a LOT happened off camera, I cannot share certain details of this day because it wouldn't be fair and potentially risky to the kind people that helped me out on this day and made this surreal experience possible. Please let me know your thoughts in a comment section of this video and the Brazil Series (positive or negative). Want to see the photos I got from this day? See them here: instagram.com/indigo.traveller/
    Thanks for watching and I'll see you in the next one. I love you, Brazil! 🇧🇷

      Great representation of all the opposites Rio has to offer, and it makes me slightly sad to see not much has changed since I was there. Early 2000's for me.
      But do enjoy the people and their spirit on your trip(s)!

    I'm from Brazil and I say to those who watched this video: don't believe in this content, there is a certain culture, especially in Rio de Janeiro, a tourist city, in romanticizing the favelas, which is terrible and only serves the tourist guide interests. Poverty has never been and will never be trivial. These videos and testimonials are all the bad guys want. A favela is not something pleasant and safe, quite the opposite.

    For those of you who are curious about what he saw but did not mention in the end of the video, he probably witnessed police officers collaborating, interacting and making deals with criminals. Police officers will sell guns to the gangs and demand money for letting them operate, and also provide info about incoming police operations.
    He may have witnessed children and teenagers involved in the drug-selling scheme. The gangs will use children, pregnant, disabled and elderly people mostly to transport the drugs without causing suspicion. I can’t say it is rare that children will be seen holding a gun in a favela. Their childhood is dismantled, and it is shocking when you see a kid who is probably still interested in toys to be holding a gun instead. The unaccessible goods and lifestyle bombarded by tv and the internet nowadays is a powerful tool to convince people into the wrong paths.
    Other things he may have seen include their drug and money stocks or, based on his scared face, a place where bodies are disposed, but this is less likely than the other possibilities. The drug dealers will kill people caught stealing in some favelas "to serve as example". In their criminal activities, many people end up being executed, so there are usually unaccessible places where they dispose the bodies of the victims. Although he may have watched somebody being executed in front of him, I don't think this was the case. It is possible, but I think they would not do it in front of a tourist, a person they don't know at all. There is a chance he witnessed somebody being taken away by them, and was told to ignore what was going on and not to look at them. In this case, imagining what happened to that person could be the cause of his scared face. This was suggested by somebody else as a response to my comment.
    Many people are mentioning human trafficking, but this is not something common in the favelas of Rio. As I mentioned previously, the leaders of the gangs usually try to keep their reputation as somebody who is protecting the community. From my understanding and experience, if somebody involved with human trafficking is caught in a favela, it is not going to end well for him.

Muito justo e dentro do que ele viu. Jamais dizendo nada positivo em relação às coisas negativas que testemunhou. Provavelmente, pessoas que não entendem o inglês interpretaram tudo apenas pelo que ouviram de portugues.

Nothing bad happened to me luckily, but the friends I have made there were amazing, and the places I saw were absolutely breathtaking! Too bad it’s over 11,000 miles away from my country. I dated one of the locals, and I felt the love and affection so much! I felt so loved and accepted there, even more than the asians in neighboring countries in Philippines!

Li vários comentários de pessoas q já moraram em periferias como esta (ou na própria mostrada no vídeo) e percebi que a beleza que eu criei na minha cabeça sobre as favelas não são muito belas.

      For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
      John 3:16 KJV
      The wages of sin is death (hell) but Jesus paid our debt on the cross, for our salvation! We must turn to God and away from our sinful ways, Confess Jesus is Lord and believe with our hearts that he was risen from the dead by God, and we must be baptized in the name of the Father, the Son and The Holy Spirit and live by His word and Commandments! Trust that God will help with the rest!

      S. Juan 3:16 RVR1960
      La paga del pecado es muerte (infierno) pero Cristo pagó nuestra deuda en la cruz para nuestra salvacion! Debemos volvernos a Dios y apartarnos de nuestros caminos pecaminosos, confesar que Jesús es el Señor y creer con nuestro corazón que fue resucitado de entre los muertos por Dios, y debemos de ser bautizados en el nombre del Padre, del Hijo y del Espíritu Santo y vivir por Su palabra y mandamientos! Confia que Dios ayudara con el resto!

The majority of these gang soldiers are high on cocaine and uneducated as some never finished first grade. Secondly, if you have a beautiful woman as a family member one of the gang soldiers will do everything in their power to make you live miserably.

    I find Nick to be incredibly respectful. To all of those complaining about how he is not showing Brazil's nice side, hundreds of CZcamsrs are doing that already.
    The beauty of this channel is that Nick shows the good and the bad which allows foreigners to see what is truly going on around the world. Sometimes this will even lead to fundraising and help being sent to those in need.
    Keep up the amazing work that you are doing!

      Exactly, it has to show the Brazilian reality, the contrast that exists here. I follow the american CZcamsrs that show the reality of the streets in the united states and that's good, if you ever visit the united states, to know that gang and drug problems also exist.

      In general America North and South is fucked up ! Young generations but Europe is also not a paradise how the Americans thing. Europe have poverty too and lots of other problems. Foreigners go to Paris taking pictures in from of Chanel store and other places but go outside Paris around the slams you must lock the car door otherwise you will get robed. Italian subways you must watch your bags. Germany lots of drugs rehab centers full of lost people. All those things the Americans from Brazil and USA doenst know.

    This is a great example of depicting things the way they are. He is getting to know the local people and he is asking them questions regarding their life in the favelas. He is not being disrespectful or ignorant. Even though the idea of a favela is very scary that doesn’t mean that there aren’t good people living there- people who wish they could escape this way of life and have a better future. We don’t realize how lucky we are sometimes.

    The community spirit in many favelas is much more compassionate than even the richer areas.

    Life is cheap but they try and live life to the fullest in spite of the conditions which provoke such misery.

    It's crazy, every time I see a video of basically anywhere in Brazil even the favelas. I just think of how beautiful it is. it's crazy because you're in the slums but you're still captured by that beauty and you're like what is making this place so beautiful. Of course the land and nature and everything but also it's the people, the way the buildings are built and the art.. the murals. It's just all tied In that makes it so beautiful

      I'm Brazilian and I'm sick of foreign people having this true obsession with favelas. Slums are places of huge crime. The fact of a lot of foreigners really believe they are colourful, peaceful and happy places, with 100% of good folks there annoys me at most. When I was in London UK years ago and was explaining to a brit that I came from a poor and working class background and this guy told, "ah, OK, I understand you, you are from the favela!" and this got me really upset. "No mate, I didn't come from a favela. I came from a working class area, not a criminal one. You would be so surprised to know the majority of Brazilians don't live in favelas and that the fact of Brazil is a very large and diverse country, we are not only, thankfully, the Rio de Janeiro city and its favelas (a place that I've visited just one time in my life and I've hated with all of my forces.)". It's really sad the world thinks Brazil is just favelas and much more terrible that you think favelas are beautiful places. This offends most part of the hard working Brazilians, believe me
