Deadliest Journeys - Congo River
Vložit
- čas přidán 2. 04. 2019
- We make the epic journey from Kinshasha, capital of the DRC, to Kisangani, the third largest city in this vast country. The only way to move between the cities is by boat or plane. We join 1,500 people onboard the 'Gbemani', sailing along the Congo River. Without fresh water, electricity, or medicines, it is a perilous voyage. -

What’s the point of the interviews if you’re not going to translate what they say !
I think they want us to guess what they're saying
@Nikolai Ninja Not for me. CC button just types out jibberish and doesn't show anything when they speak.
@Nikolai Ninja no it doesn't translate when they speak french
@Nikolai Ninja sorry to say that the CC doesn't do the trick
literally watching people travel through the congo on a flimsy boat and you are complaining about subtitles on a free video.
LMAO try strugging a little bit?
what did I just watch and that it was shot in 2019 is crazy? I'm from Kenya a neighboring country to DRC and this helps me understand why so many of them migrate here. God, help Africa, bad leadership has bowed this great continent's people to their knees. I can't even compare Congo's resources with Kenya. They have diamonds, their land is green and fertile as to our which is 80% desert.
From kenya too,,corruption kila mahali
I’d imagine the conditions would be much better if there wasn’t a war going on
I have a friend from Congo .... He always tell mi he can't leave Kenya, kenya kwake nikama ulaya.
I WILL NEVER COMPLAIN ABOUT MY LIFE AFTER WATCHING THIS VIDEO
@Stephen Schneider what do you mean they did to themselves?
@Stephen Schneider Shaat up man! Stop talking nonsense.
The man crying about the birth of the babies touched my heart
There's enough of them..they should not be having babies
@@Dave-im3lm shut up dave
When you think you have it hard and difficult somewhere someone have it worse... be thanks for what you got...😥😥
I'm thankful for the hard work that I put in to make sure that I have what I have. And I'm not lucky. Luck doesn't have anything to do with it. Hard work gets you out of a pit.
You’re a stupid piece of shit human being. Go gloat about your “hard work” in the corner of your empty house you fucking loser.
@@fortred735 u are lucky cuz you born in a better contry ,u stupid loser '' hard work'' u tink what thay doing now is not hard work ? moron.
@@magnomliman8114 Yes hard work. Hard work my ancestors done for hundreds of years. When it was freezing cold and nothing to eat all they way up here in Sweden, do you think they just sat down and waited for hand outs? Do you think we were just handed all the stuff we produced and built? Fucking moron.
@@bajingo4759 i would love to see you switch places with them...i wonder if u still have the same ego like now, moron.
2:40 Start the engine so we can go, and hopefully gain some time
3:11 Pull the moorage
4:58 Going to the "bathroom" is very difficult, to have a "shower" you need to walk way in the back for the men's area.
5:07 Walking is tricky you have to be careful not to fall off the boat as you walk your way
5:23 The men's shower area. Once you are done
5:28 you need to proceed so others can have a shower too
5:36 To go for number 2, you need to hold and bend
5:48 If you slip you will be cut down, chopped in pieces
8:46 Stop pushing !
15:23 I was sleeping over there when around 4am the work started, then I came to help her give birth. I was in the red cross. I am happy I could help
15:58-16:13 Everything is hard, all our money got taken away. There are some baby clothes but not the ones to keep him warm, for the colder temperatures. I am worried about money for food, I don't have anything, plus there is no place to seat
16:25 We just met on this boat. She asked for help, and we helped though we are not from the same family
19:51-20:07 Instead of checking the depth of the river he fell asleep then we got stuck, and we spent the night there from 8pm till now.That's why the captain is trying to maneuvre and pull back
Bless you good samaritan👏👏👏
Thank you for the translation.
The real mvp
You have done all watching a great service sir! Now we can know what the real people of Congo say not only reporters!
How do ul know it’s the real translation.
Hats of to all African who are struggling instead of Living a free life
I Love Africa❤️
I love Congo♥️
Love from India🇮🇳

Yh you fuckers stay there!
And I love u too

The tears that fell down my cheeks while watching this!!! 😭
*LORD I THANK YOU! I WON'T COMPLAIN!!! AMEN!* 🙏🏾
You'll forget, you'll complain, and God will forgive you for that,
Too bad your god is unable to help.
AquaticBoardwalkEngineer it seems you don’t understand God, which leads you to think hes not real. Very common problem
AquaticBoardwalkEngineer it seems you really don’t understand God. All those things you mentioned are from the Old Testament, if you are a follower of Christ then you follow the New Testament. Hence why it is called New.
Fr this hurt my heart
Watching this video makes me incredibly thankful for all that I have. Respect to these people and safe journey's for all of them. 🙏
T OB you got problems.
No their luxurious yacht is just sailing nearby!
Did you see the smiles on their faces? It's all relative. Just like us, some of them are happy some not so much.
Many people seem to take what they have for granted. Life itself is a gift that we should be thankful for each and every day.
These people know the dangers of riding on this ferry but still choose to ride on it all the same. Probably because they do not have a choice.
Those of us with choices to make or sole options that are far better than what we saw in the video should be thankful.
Right i feel the same way
I once experienced the same traveling conditions on the Nile River in south sudan from juba to bentiu, its an experience I will never forget, God bless Africa
Did you shit like the others do
man you actaualy do this kind of trip and live this kind of life and get some shit comment from shit jose ramons and some white prevliage saying "ooo thats so tarebeil ..." or " no translate" get hunderds of feedback show you what the world is coming to... just p.c and not really care about others just want things to look nice on the outside . very sad but true . wish you the best moses from the river)) take care
@@amimag u must have tooken the same boat shit 😆😆😆😆😆😅😆🤣😂
U must eat shit all day, because that you speak like this
Let's see you in this Africa. You will be shish cabab after few hours
it took balls of steel to even watch this..!! hats off to the camera team for letting know the real Congo through river Congo..
You need to try to get subtitles on documentaries like these, what the people who are actually going through situations like this have to say is the most important.
Exactly
@@brisaguerra5979 what? do you think they speak some mysterious language that can't be translated?
Who cares what the fuck they are saying
Absolute loosers
My heart cries for these people. As I enjoy a warm bed, clean water, a well stocked refrigerator, ... forgive my complaining about my trivial problems.
My heart goes to my brothers and sister in Congo but love the way they help each other....peace and love
They need to live in a country that is mostly run by white people huh?
@@smithjohn9620 Whitey can most likely only hurt these people's lives.
That because you most likely live is a Judaeo Christian country, run by white folks who are conservative. But to bleeding hart liberal left this would be the ideal situation. Just look at what they re doing to Venezuela. There is no cultural relativism. Some cultures and religions are just awful and disgusting. Most of Africa is Muslim. Tells you everything you need to know.
Go and bang bbc
7:45 So hold up, there's English subtitles for the british commentator but none for the boat driver? Oh ok!
Africa will always be Africa. Watching from Zimbabwe Gokwe NeMbudziya ❤🇿🇼🇿🇼🇿🇼👍
North and south Africans don't go through hell like this when travelling...
Honestly I feel so grateful to have been born and living in the UK. Watching this is so humbling, I live in a comfortable home and get to eat three meals a day, its sad that in Western countries especially younger people are looking at Instagram wishing we had more money for a designer bag or expensive vacation - we don't even realise how good we have it. Feeling very grateful right now.
U r true.
They don't need to look abroad. They just have to remember how their own ancestors lived 120 years ago...
to see a baby drink that dirty river water that really made me feel sick things we don't ever think about just how lucky we are to be watching and not in this film
Heartbreaking... Cried uncontrollably.
😒 blah blah blahhh
@scrambo mills because he's soft, like most of westerners now
Don't worry your time will come
@@fearnoonemurdagang4228 go help your people lmao.
This reminds me of once when I traveled in Lake Victoria in a small engine, leaking boat. We kept scooping water in turns for a whole night.
That looks like a scene right out of a Mad Max movie in a tropical set.
looking at the population boom in congo, in 30 years, this video will look like paradise for the congolese
watching the babies crying really breaks my heart.
Just when I thought I had problems, I will just shelve my problems and makes sure no one gets to hear about them. There's a people going thru a more difficult struggle than I could even begin to imagine. More power, strength and willpower to the people of Congo.
A journey of survival. The community spirit is amazing. The nurse and the captain both deserve medals.
All i can say is be greatfull of what you have
WOOOoooOOoowww!!!! Is all I can say about this doc. Oh and the baby being born
I am almost speechless. Bless them
Lack of translated subtitles. Very unfortunate.
this documentary doesnt even translate what these people are saying
you can say that again
Yes, I was hoping to watch this, seems really interesting but it makes no sense without translation.
I thought so too but I'm there and can undertand what they're saying.
Agree good video tho
the captain believe in God he pray to the almighty God make me very happy God bless you my brother from Haiti
We can do anything through christ who strengthens us
lee mugwimi yes sir God bless you
i belive if god see this he dont want to have anything to do with us ...
lee mugwimi he’s not Christian
That Jesus Christ is the problem and we need to leave that religion for the white man and his people. I don’t understand why people want to be sheep. You want to someone to tell you how to eat? How to learn? How to think 💭? How to live? If you want to reclaim your history black man and black woman. Then you must study the people who try to write you out of history. It’s 2020 there’s no excuse the information is out there. Wake up!!!
CZcams recommends to me videos of people on sail boats, living on yachts, and then this at the same time.
Shii might go check out people living on yachts, sounds interesting
What a beautiful mother and baby Congrats!!!
Big ups to the nurse though.. Nerves of steel
Amen brother, I thought the same thing I'm a nurse so much respect she looked so tiard but still helping Gods Angel's..
The nurse is like a Ray of hope.
yeah i think we all liked it when she put her doctors uniform on
My sentiments too
Corruption is at the very heart of this
WOW!!! This just makes you grateful for everything that you have. Oh my gosh!
Sad to see what my African sisters and brothers have to endure 😢.... jah guide and bless them always ........ one love 💕 💜......
I am a sea farer, I have seen incredible storms out at sea and have faced enourmous risks.
I like to pride myself in my ability at sea.
But this captain, WOW, he is an absolute legend for even thinking of taking a journey like this.
Let alone to complete it without injuring or people dying.
What an absolute hero.
Respect sir!
I'm thankful for my blessings
I hope that this gets translated to English for the rest of the world to hear and know. Great documentary!!!! Wow what a trip.
Great captains and crew...AND THE NURSE IS AWESUM!
Them boys had some fresh line ups on them fades doe
Lol lol!!!
This brought tears to my eyes. It makes me feel bad about complaining about my life. I realise now that I have so much to be thankful for.
A humble reminder that there are always people suffering more/who have it worse. Be thankful.
They make my life look very easy..as though I am struggling, but their struggle is very raw, and extreme to the fullest☹️
If you're going to make a documentary about these people and their struggles you could at least have the decency to provide us with subtitles to understand more in depth.
Translation would have been great. Oh well 🙄. Still interesting.
i had the youtube version of english subtitles on, and boy did i feel more stupid to believe that those were the actual meaning to whatever they were saying.. xD haha
LegaSEA Gaming you could actually do it yourself
@@MrDark9266 share link for English version pls
What makes you think the narrator and/or camera crew understood the languages being spoken, especially Lingala? Even the French dialect can be quite hard to catch. Fascinating film.
Coming from Ghana, it seems like two different worlds. I love the ease and flow of my country.
Serious ooh bro
The corpse floating down the river omg 😱
The baby been born made me smile! The only happiness I felt throughout this video. They endure so much and get so little 😢
I love these people.They still hold their heads high and are proud of Congo. Yet someone has enriched himself so much ignoring his duty.
not only ignoring his duty but also effectively blocking any real chance of change for the better...
@@ultreiasherpa6457 you find some African leaders very rich but the citizens are deadly poor....and when overthrown they blame the West!
So true
Well they have nothing to hold their heads High about. They should actually put their head down a little bit and get to work. There's business to be done.
They Have My Uttmost Respect. My hardest day is getting out of the bed late nites to pee..... Next trip will be met with Shouts and Praises to God and Thankfulness...😔🙏🏾
😂😂 mines too
Too descriptive
GO FIND WORK, IF U THINK HAVING TO PEE AT NIGHT IS HARD, TRIE TO WORK HARD, MAKE LONGER SHIFTS LAZYASSES
@@alwayslit7232 hahahahhahaha
@@alwayslit7232 maybe he has kidney stones or prostate problems bro
Really I never thought there is a boat journey like this........unbelievable!
I thought my life was rough but after seeing this I thank God 🙏 for what I do have remember ppl it's always someone worst off thin you
How selfish, you thank god for putting these people in misery and not you ???
Terrence Vergauwen that’s not what he said nor what he meant you buffoon.
@@-caleb-7201 Well, explain it to me then... He's thanking god because he's not in a miserable situation. That implies that he thinks it was god's decision to put him there, which implies that god is responsible for your "place", and he also put those poor people in that miserable place. Isn't that somewhat unfair and hypocritical for him to thank a made-up superstition for ???

@@annacompan7219 why dont your people find investors and build actual buildings, for school government ect. If that's one of the biggest cities in Congo then their lack of ability to improve their land is disgusting
@@TheMastergabe
Corruption.
I am from the other other Congo, not from RD of Congo which is in this documentary. But same story... corruption and bad governance
@@annacompan7219 I understand that the government isn't helping. I'm talking about private investors and skilled labor. As a stone Mason I don't understand how there are no skilled laborers or anyone willing to learn a trade to improve their community and wealth. I see trees. I see rocks. Invest in the bare minimum of tools, some workers, and build a hotel or a restaurant. They would be the richest people around after they get the proper security
@@TheMastergabe
😊😊
I understand. Lack of vision knowledge and initiatives for some. People would be willingly to learn but there are not opportunities.
My brother and I have projects in this context in our country, which is as rich as this.
We want to attract tourists, create jobs and improve our community. Our country have lots of potential. We are looking for contractors actually.
I am particularly interested in improving my community through community development. I am working on my charity.
But this video shows the bad side of Congo only. There are very nice places and lots of investments in some places.
Love from India ❤️ huge respect to them 🙏
Who else just started randomly watching this during lockdown and is now addicted
life is a serious journey.
OMG!, and we still complain about delays at the airport, jet lag and so on...we should indeed thank God for our blessings. May God keep them safe.
I keep these people on a pieceof paper so. Lord Amos can watch over them......
Jesus sees...and he will have vengeance on the evil people who cause this poverty
I thank God for my work ethic. My hard work keeps me from the gutter. I would think the people in Africa would try a little harder too
@@fortred735 Bro, they DO work hard wtf. Hard work doesn't mean anything if your corrupt government pays you less than a dollar per day without bonus. Have some compassion, man. Pray for them, don't shame them.
He’s probably a 60 year old single, lonely, fat, small dicked loser who has nothing better to do than comment on CZcams videos about less fortunate people. He’s commented on about 50 other people’s posts lmao. He’s a lonely loser forsure.
After watching this. I realize how lucky we people are. Thanks God 🙏🏻
Hard work over generations. Nothing lucky about it.
@@dickfantastic7908 yes true but we are lucky as well bcz we born where we have almost every basic thing.
@@mishailsohail8640 Again, hard work over generations explains this. Nothing godlike about that. We decided what we wanted and how we wanted to live and built systems accordingly. Holy books may attribute this to god, I do not.
I spent a few weeks in Kinshasa just recently. Hardship is nothing there. People are people and the Congolese make do - wonderful people. I loved it there.

The videos original narrator has been cut out .I think this was an RT documentary which always has ok translation. doc are the only thing rt is good for
