Near Death Experience On Bangladesh's Worst Bus 🇧🇩

- As much as we did not want to, we had no choice but to take an overnight bus from Dhaka to Cox's Bazar.
After many a rough journey, this was the one that finally went wrong. Luckily, we survived unhurt, but we had no idea who or what we hit and if they were okay afterwards.
If you travel around Asia, avoid long-distance buses at all costs; it is never worth gambling with your life.

I can give you little inside why the driver didn't stop even after that incident. Becuase robbery happens in night in few place. Sometime robbers try to stop bus by putting blockers or other stuff so that bus drvier slow down and they can get in to rob everyone. And the incident that happened with your bus seems like the case. Because if they had actually smashed other vehicles , the other vehicle owner should have called the p0lice right away. Since they didn't bother to call the police, you can be sure this was a trap. This is probably the main reason I can think of why they didn't stop. I don't think sleeping cause the issue, there is a second incharge who sits next to the driver, if that happened, he should have caught earlier. But I do agree on the fact, that they should have checked with all to see everyone is ok .
i guessed same. i have experience riding and they wud not stop the bus unless there are proper stops like resting restaurants..
Also keep in mind, majority in this country don't speak English. Many knows only basic words and sentence. As a result many prefer to avoid a long discussion with foreigners. With that limited knowledge of English I don't think they will ever try to explain the actual situation. This could be another reason why they haven't explained you anthing. I know its frustating but language barrier is really a big issue in this country. Take the train ride back to dhaka. Wish you best luck and looking forward for next video. Keep smiling.
Wow, that's really something horrible. If that's the case, the driver is also a victim. But the bus company just doesn't care.
He doesn't know this and he's spitting bad word from his mouth!
Guy’s thanks to god, you guys are ok and didn’t lose your phone camera and all the other stuff 🙏 if the driver stopped on that spot you gonna be robbed and you couldn’t complete your video too🙄. Imagine you guys was seating on back and feels cold but the driver drove the bus without window and who knows the broken window glasses damage his face or body, thanks to the driver for his bravely driving his bus till to the safe destination🙏. And nots if you are foreigner do not use public transport any 3rd world countries 🙏🙏🙏 for your safety reason👍👍👍
Bro called the most expensive bus "worst bus"
Do you remember when you were in China, your bus stopped at the service area for a few hours? That's because China's highways prohibit buses from driving on highways from 2am to 5am to avoid accidents caused by driver fatigue. Although you may be disturbed by snorers and unable to sleep, but I think it's better than risking your life.
True
So they should stay in china forever?🙄
Yea, they never mention again
Miss that snoring guy
China is a different league all together.
Bus driver saved you. There were robber who would rob the whole bus and take everything.
This is not a logical explanation. He should call police for help.
@@salmanshafin7291 Are you Bangladeshi? Don't you know what robbers do when they loot a bus? And if they somehow have information about 2 foreigners traveling in this bus they will definitely kill some people . The situation on the highway is not fully under control of the police team.
@@salmanshafin7291 i think It's time for you to leave bangladesh you mo^ron
@@MdMazharulIslamOvieI agree with you dude. The same thing happened with me and my family when we were travelling but thanks to the almighty Allah that we were safe.

Yes😂😂😂
The problem maybe if they have stopped there at the road the bus could be attacked by robbers. Robbing at the highways are a big problem here. The road and transport and health care sector here is shitty. What to do!
I think the situation could have been made better if the staff explained this, not one person spoke the full hour driving back to the bus station….
We should have also checked that the people we hit were okay
Exactly. Driver was probably scared of a public beating too.
@@alanshannon3884 language barrier mate i feel your worries
@@alanshannon3884 The local people probably understand the situation and that’s probably why they didn’t question the driver’s decision not to stop. Glad you made it to your destination without harm. Stay safe.
Maybe it was the highwayman he hit.@@alanshannon3884
Bro trust me im a bangadeshi im not even gonna argue with you BUS DRIVERS ARE THE WORSE!!!
Sometimes they even drive drunk and they dont even have a liscence dont ride bus
Honestly dont take any bus it dosent matter if it is green line or not every company is like this
And the "COMPENSATION" money they give you it was a bribe
Back in the day green line used to warn that bus will not stop under any circumstances during night because of highway robberies.
I am from Bangladesh. Even I am scared to travel in Bangladeshi bus, they are so careless. Don’t think about 40 passenger behind them. Please travel in plane or train. You guys have enough money and plane travel is also not that expensive.
True
For real. Especially at night. Day time is scary enough on those motorways, especially, lol.
They bargain for 40 Taka, which is 20 British cents. Not everything is cheap in Bangladesh.
Right
yesterday i had fallen from door of running bus. Allah had saved me. I did not face massive injuries. It was happened in Gazipur Poribohon
Another point to consider is that the bus did not stop at midnight in the middle of nowhere due to concerns regarding passenger safety. The road conditions are deemed insufficiently safe to warrant a bus stop during nighttime hours.
This makes sense. The environment in the video cannot even see the street lights. Stopping hastily without knowing the surrounding environment may put everyone in a more dangerous situation.
But bald 👩🦲 🐖 Shannon got mad.
This seems to be the norm in these developing/third world countries. Alan and Shannon kind of being karens.

they didn't stop cause they were scared of highwaymen. There is news of robbers blocking the highway and looting everything. Although these robberies don't occur anymore but you never know.
Only by leaving China will you understand how safe China is
do not say like that, china also has many problems.

😅hehe. Not really, in many parts of China, drivers are fucking crazy and never follow the rules when driving. Especially those who drive overnight buses and heavy trucks, many of them suffer from overworking, sleep deprivation and extreme fatigue😅
Some system of Bangladesh is worst because of Unelected government.
true
Dude It's a private company 😂😂😂
AAccident means Accident. You can't do anything.
@@Sky_Elite_Avationit’s deep word you not gonna understand.
@@Funny12126 Yeah your BNP established in 1971.😂
They also have a world records related with corruption.:)
Not one time,Five Times!!
It's also a deep word. 😉
Very deep word 😂😂
They actually took the responsibility to make sure you reach to your destination. Well what happened there is , green line has the most number of luxury buses. You took the economy bus . That's why they actually needed time to arrange replacement bus from the depot.
The reason anyone was not complaining is that , they actually think that accidents are the things that might happen any time randomly. Even after the accident they managed to drive it and reach the nearest station where you can have a bit of rest until the replacement arrives .
Just imagine spending night in middle of nowhere at midnight . Is it safe ? or the driver taking responsibility of each passenger on board and driving the bus to reach the nearest station is safe?
Everyone understands that , that's why no one was complaining about the situation. As the bus provider handled the situation responsibly.
This makes sense. They started to compare bangladesh with first-world countries unknowingly sort of.
Kinda forgot that it's bangladesh, a third world country. Its not uk/scotland! No where near them or their system! 😀
Agreed! We, citizens of first world countries, sometimes forget that we are in a sense all privileged and that there are third world country out there. We cannot impose we standard of living to theirs as their countries are not as developed as ours.
Very well explained
Love watching these new vlogs Alan and Shannon. This is what I call an adventure!
The driver didn’t stop there because, there have been found many robbery cases. If the driver stoped there , it could have been more worse than that. The drivers is not actually a pussy he was just trying to save you alls
That’s why most of the young generation aim to go abroad because in here there is no safety of your life and no one even care. No explanation no liability for the rich people. Stay safe 😇
Yeah i visited Bangladesh and all my cousins were talking about how they want out.
Right nice one

As a Bangladeshi i always try to avoid bus rides. The bus drivers in Bangladesh don't want to follow the rules at all. I hope you will also try to avoid buses in BD :")
SI le zhenghao, LIang ge Shabi😂😊
Don't forget highway robbers.
Which camera did you use?
Alan & Shannon, really sorry, to see your coach crashed an accident. In Bangladesh, accidents happen frequently since night coach drivers are often deprived of proper sleep. They only care about money and engage into long driving repeatedly.
So, its better to book Luxury bus tickets for long journey. Also, it is requested to gather public reviews about "transports" that care about safety and customer satisfaction.
However, sounds good, that you didn’t face any injuries. Hope you will enjoy the rest of your journey. ❤
It’s ashame that companies but the bus drivers in that position that they have to choose money over people’s safety
What happened was unacceptable. I really feel sorry that you guys went through these kinds of situations. But to be honest Green Line is one of the finest here. Next time you may try Hanif/Shohagh/Saint Matrtins if you ever try again.
@@alanshannon3884 Recently, a couple was gang-raped by Indians while traveling in India. Safety comes first when traveling abroad.
@@alanshannon3884better go bk to China
@@alanshannon3884you too care about money lol.. why don’t take flight or good bus to travel. oh sorry u need to make drama to get views lol.. 😂
Alan and Shannon, as a Bangladeshi, i feel very sorry for your worst experience in Bangladesh. I knew that Greenline is one of a good company that provide good service. But, what i saw, is just unacceptable.
I feel very sorry! But one thing is very true that, no one in Bangladesh, even government don't care about anyone’s health and safety...!
I hope things can change in the future!
The last counter guy was like, "You bought economy tickets, so its ok to be crushed"! 😅😅
I think the couple learned their lesson this time.
Glad you guys are safe. They did't stop after accident because there can be thief or robber in middile of the highway. so they drive the bus and didn't stop. Be safe guys.♥
This is exactly what I would have said,best you guys don't travel to bangladesh until things improve,we're following you but not impressed with your reaction its a third world country wake up,also did not appreciate your foul language,all the best.
So the robber will rob a bus full of people at least 40 or more? That robber must be very ballsy or Bangladesh is the most unsafe country.😐 and what about police?
@@Wisewolf09 you probably have noticed that it was dark everywhere so it was unsafe to stop there. What i found strange is that no one else complained about it and ask for refund. Probably because they go through this quite often.
@Wisewolf09 the robber(s) could have guns, machetes, knives, etc. Not defending the driver overall, but like, you never know. He should have stopped a few KM down the road seeing no one following him though.
@@Wisewolf09The robbers are ballsy and the people here are just p6&&ies . I mean think about it, there's a reason it's a 3rd world country :')
Unelected government, that's why big problem 🇧🇩
😂😂😂😂
I'm from Bangladesh, but living in Europe for half of my life. This is one of the main reasons that stops me from visiting BD with my kids and wife. We just don't know if we will come back alive or uninjured. Bangladeshi roads are death traps. There are a few reasons for the bus or any driver not to stop. If they do, there is a risk of the bus or car getting mobbed and burnt. This is also the negative side of our culture that in a situation like this, people focus on destruction rather than the safety of the affected. This is why no bus/car driver would ever stop after any accident until they find a safe shelter no matter what. The attitude of the bus counter staff members was absolutely shameful! Glad that you both are safe and hope this does not take away any positive experience that you have in Bangladesh. Scottish and Irish are my favorite people in Europe. Thanks for visiting BD.
So sorry this had to happened to you. Let me explain some things here, please don't get offended.
Why the bus driver hadn't stopped the bus?
FOR YOUR SAFETY. The bus was in the the middle of nowhere & stopping there would've been a huge risk of being robbed. So, the driver kept driving for an hour to stop at a safe place. Every vehicle on the road in Bangladesh at night is at risk of being robbed.
Why they didn't tell you this reason?
Because of THE LANGUAGE BARRIER. Please remember this while you're in foreign countries. You will face this again and again.
What about Green Line?
This company is THE LEAST BAD bus company in Bangladesh. Have you noticed I haven't said good? They should've apologized to you & calm you down & even with the language barrier they should've tried to make you understand.
About you two - YOU'RE TOO NAIVE FOR SOUTH ASIA. Please, hire a guide from a renowned tour company if you can. Use everything premium, for example planes, 4 or 5 star hotels, cars provided by hotels(ask for it), get the information from officers or hotel manager where you are about to go & make them accountable, if you find a trustworthy English speaking officer ask for his contact number.
Really worried about you two guys. Hope rest of your trip in Bangladesh is safe.
Thanks for sharing this video. I've been here a dozen years now and a intercity bus I was travelling in witnessed a head on collision between a bus and truck right in front of me. I went out to help the wounded and bloodied up people from the bus. It was horrific and I'm still traumatized. That's the last time I used a bus in Bangladesh. The illegal overtaking kills dozens every year.. 😢
It’s honestly horrific, I’m so sorry you had to witness this❤️
@@alanshannon3884not dozens but thousands get killed each year.
Hi Alan and Shannon. I am glad that you both and the other passengers are not badly hurt after such a horrible accident. That driver must had deprived of sleep after long hours of driving! Remember you both were complaining about a driver in China who stopped the the coach and snored badly? At least he managed to had some sleep and drove you guy safely to your destination in the end.
Thank you for showing this. I live in Bangladesh as well. It reminded me how the people don't care about their services anymore.
There is another reason for not stopping in the middle of the road at midnight. The Dhaka-Chittagong highway is an active robbery point and they often use this kind of tactics to stop the buses and then embarks on when it stops. Stay safe guys
Wow, i dont know that bangladesh is so dangerous ... 😮 the only i know about bd is dirty
@@IDMarketer Common problem in the whole subcontinent when the population is crammed into a little space

alen and shanon sorry for the worse situation. And apology from Bangladesh. I also faced such situation in the same bus company. All the drivers are just reckless. Enjoy your tour in Bangladesh. And i must say please u have to more careful and attentive while traveling in rickshaw at night time because of hijacker threats.
Happy touring.
Glad to see you good. You can avoid this company and try shohagh prestige a very safe bus company
Hey Mate, I have been following you guys since you both landed in Dhaka. Let me admit the fact, Greenline is one of the best bus companies here in Bangladesh. Unfortunately, i really not sure why they didn't do any concussion check at the first place.
I suggest you call 999 for any emergency support needed from Police. Also, I suggest to travel with Shohag Company's bus next time. Also travelling is safer during day time via bus. If you need any assistance, please don't hesitate to knock me for any insights.
You were almost got robbed if the bus had stopped at that moment.
First off really enjoying the vlogs alan and shannon. have fun and enjoy life to the fullest. Couple of things,
you guys should have opted out.for the flight literally less then hours and cheap, i get it you want the experience and all but not worth it as its dangerous and 100% tourist don't know that they are robbers and smugglers on the highways that try to block the bus to stop it so they can come in with guns and knifes and take all of your beloved belongings. So the driver did what he was trained for and made the right decision to keep driving and get you guys to the transfer center. knowledge is power yet this is something you wont get on a simple google search. anyways yall be fine and enjjoy your trip. waiting on the next vlog..
I am so sad to hear this bus accident happened to you guys, lucky among all the unlucky is you guys didn't get hurt, that's most important. I could understand you were so terrified, I will be the same if it happened to me, luckily so far I didn't experienced any bus accidents. The most furious is the driver didn't even bother to stop to check if he hit someone, he didn't even apologize and ask if everyone especially children on the bus are fine or not, his altitude was so unprofessional and the company was also not acting responsibly. You are right when travelling we should try to avoid taking long-haul especially overnight bus, even I wouldn't take those tuktuk taxis in South Asia. Anyway wish you guys stay safe and love from China.
Stay safe and never give up your safety to experience something new. I wish you all the best!
Great advice!
Alan and Shanon, really sorry about what happened with you both. Life is a gamble for many situation in Bangladesh.
So glad you guys are ok, I can't imagine how frightened you would have been. Stay safe and best wishes from South West Wales 😊
Sorry for bad experience. 🤔🤗
Love and enjoy your travel. ❤️🥰👍
Switching providers won't help. They're more or less the same. What you experienced is par for the course-not just there but all countries with similar institutional features.
Even the strongest atheist becomes a believer of god by taking a bus in Bangladesh 😂😂
Are they atheist?
I am a Bangladeshi atheist and that's not true. Even from a (mono)theistic viewpoint, believing in a benevolent divine entity *only* when one perceives danger would be insincere and perhaps not count to the supposedly omniscient God (hence it knows that the fear is temporary and the belief insincere). As for me, I don't need faith-based reassurance to feel safe - if it helps you, good for you.
So sorry you had to go through this experience. We had a very unsavoury experience with green line ourselves. They made a standard pit stop and while my wife and I were taking a washroom break, the bus straight up left without us, no call or headcount to check if everyone boarded the bus. We had to take another bus and ride for 30 minutes to catch up with our initial bus which had our luggage. They just laughed the matter off just like they did in your video. No accountability whatsoever. The sad reality is that most of us here in Bangladesh are highly desensitised to reckless bus drivers because we are so used to it which is why most of us will just shake it off.
I would strongly advice you to take a flight to cox’s bazaar even though it’s much more expensive. Hope the rest of your trip is safer brother, take care!
Wow that is absolutely shocking, I'm so glad you managed to catch the bus up to collect your luggage. It's sad that the people of Bangladesh get used to this terrible service
Wait so you're saying the bus full crashed into other vehicles and just left them??? What about the damage / injuries done 😢
Hi boss you have to understand its not Europe or america this is Bangladesh and try to avoid bus travel because all buss drivers are very dangerous driving
Honestly, riding a bus in Bangladesh would be way safer than taking the New York subway any day of the week.
@hermesliteratus882 the blax ruined the public transportation in New York and Los Angeles
Try Shohag next time. Compare to others it's best bus operator
I am very sorry that you experienced this kind of painful situation here.
Hope you find a good destination ahead.💌
It's distressing to see that such a significant accident went unnoticed by the media. It's crucial that incidents like these receive widespread coverage in Bangladesh to raise awareness and prompt appropriate action from authorities. The safety of individuals should always be a top priority, and it's essential for the police to thoroughly investigate the accident and take necessary measures to prevent similar incidents in the future. This video should go viral to ensure that the message reaches as many people as possible.
This is how life works in these countries…… Thank God you people are safe.
You don't have a clue get your face right
Right
Yeah and in your country life works with school shooters and bully gangs
Hi guys new subscriber I loved this vid u take us with u guys 😊😊❤❤❤

It’s very unprecedented that Green line got accident! 😢😢😢
Good that you guys are safe
Today itself I commented that you guys should be avoiding local bus and now only seeing this video.
Its an unexpectable incedent & sorry for that,but u guys both is terrific hope u will visit again & wellcome all time in Bangladesh.
Be sure to pay attention to safety and look forward to your return to China.

Are you in Cox Barzar now？I am in Moheskhali near cox barzar.

I have been watching ur videos and they are absolutely real and interesting. and I am from China and i suggest that you shall go visit northern part of China as a priority.
So sorry, this is life in thirdworld country like BD, hope you stay safe throughout your trip. The bus service you took is a good one, but unlucky with the driver /traffic.
It’s very heartbreaking moments. Hope you guy’s are okey. I pray for you future journey. May Allah bless you guys. Be safe ❤

any idea what they hit ???
Why I like watching your channel is this: no matter how crazy things got, Shannon will still have the biggest smile on her face… well eventually.
It was in the middle of the night, it is even more dangerous to stop. It is actually safer to just keep going.
Overnight long-distance buses were well-known for their bad safety record and bad hygiene etc., and this particular means of public transportation has largely been replaced by high-speed trains in China.
Thank you, guys, for visiting our country.
You have traveled from Dhaka to Cox's bazaar by bus. The bus operator was Green Line. At midnight, when the bus was at a high speed, it smashed into another vehicle, and the passenger got sucked. Isn't it normal that you travel in the middle of the night by bus and fall into an accident-related situation? It is really a matter of disappointment to fall into a problem when visiting our country. But, it isn't normal that without having whole knowledge and experience about green line bus operator, you make people feel unsafe to travel to Green Line or any other Bangladeshi bus operator.
Thank you
From

As a Bangladeshi I willl say you should travel by plane its so safety than bus journey because bus journey is very dangerous for night time! Stay safe.
And make sure to avoid Boeing 737 at all times, if you want to see the sunlight of the next day.
i hope if you come to Hong Kong or visit Japan you'll reconsider the buses, both Municipal and the Highway buses are decent, and even overnighters in Japan are decent, with several highway pit-stops along the way to stretch your legs. although you'd still want to bring ear plugs from all the snoring. These two places should give you a refresh on the bus system being a decent way to travel around. I love the buses in Tokyo's outer areas, you see so much more because they drive through a lot of local streets. Same goes for Hong Kong, maybe a little less for Macau but it's still not bad there, especially for crossing the bridges between Macau side and Taipa/Coloane(aka Cotai) side.
Everything in Japan is pure luxury and pricey
bus in China are all decent you dont have to only list Hong Kong
@@qianfong5397 that’s probably true, although they have had some experiences with the overnighter coaches in China and the experience wasn’t that great. i’m sure the local municipal buses are good in China, i don’t have enough experience to comment on them other than Hangzhou’s BRT is great, i’m just not a big fan of the ridiculously wide roads in Binjiang district. 😅
Dude this is not near death experience ! You guys were safe ! I’m not saying there there wasn’t any trauma, but near death experience means you almost got killed. Something like a gun shot escape or 🔥 fire .
Safety 😂 fuck who needs license to drive in Bangladesh
I am Bangladeshi. I know accidents in Bangladesh is not uncommon, it does not mean everyone here encounters mishaps. In my 41 years of age, I did not run into any accident but you, in your firs travel, met accident.It is a matter of fate too. Anyway, You are safe, that is the best thing. Best wishes.

Green Line is one of the most biggest bus company in Bangladesh.I didnt expect that.I apologize for this.I am a bangladeshi.And i also always try to avoid buses.If you visit my country next time,please choose train or plane.But i think its normally that you will never come here.I apologize again.Its our fault.
About 5 years ago a mp from sylhet went to capital Dhaka for heart treatment,when he got better he and his family getting back to sylhet by greenline bus and they was seating behind driver. A truck collided right front of the driver side head on collision,driver and MP,his wife killed on the spot. They never got compensation. If you have an accident in Bangladesh and even you die you won’t get compensation,to get the compensation you have to bribe insurance officials and police more than you will get compensation and take many years
Dear Alan & Shannon,
What happened with you guys was terrible 😢. I, as a living citizen here, feel ashamed and sorry for that incident happened with you guys.
You could take help from the "Tourist Police" there. Just google it for more info.
Again, travelling bus at night here is pretty risky sometime but this scenario is less common while travelling on bus at day time.
Other bus services like Saint-Martin, Unique, Shyamoli are comparatively better here.
Stay safe.
Enjoy a great vacation here.
May be we are not so developed country but we people have a big heart. We as a nation we are highly welcoming to foreigners, upon necessity you will find most of the people will assist you in case you need any help.
I wish you guys a healthy and happy life ahead in your life.
What a terrible experience you guys had, especially from Greenline, absolutely shocked. However, I can tell you, this is a regular situation in Bangladesh. I have also faced similar situation! So sorry that you guys had to go through this horrible experience!
so sorry to see what had happened but glad to see you two didn't get hurt
I hate to break it to Alan and Shannon but travel safety is 💩 even in the western world. Have you seen the string of recent airline tires, doors and landing gear that have literally failed or fallen off during mid-flight with hundreds of passengers? And none of those airlines apologize to the public yet they charge the public out the wazoo. Unfortunately this is the state of the world it's falling apart.
You are absolutely right.
Agreed, but we must be aware and try our best to be safe
That's really sad 😢
Stay safe ❤ wish you the best from CTG 🇧🇩

Stop whining.

People sometimes throw objects onto on coming vehicles and hope it would stop and rob passengers. The driver was brave enough to continue driving in the dark with no windscreen to get passengers out of a dark remote area to safety.
this is sheer ignorance. don’t think the windshield getting shattered would happen in the first place in most countries and you’re making it sound like a norm.
@@edgu1095 Ignorance from people like you never fail to amaze me!
They are some whiny kids... who have nothing better to do but earn money through making CZcams videos in poor countries like Bangladesh. Those Karens (Male and Female) both think whole world is waiting for them with red carpet! Blabbing of that girl to those bus counter guys are bloody disgusting! She thinks whole world knows her language! These kind of entitled people made me lose my last amount of faith in humanity. Just bunch of no-good whiny Karens!

This kind of incident is very normal in Bangladesh. The bus drivers drive recklessly. Many many lives are lost in BD due to road accidents. I am very sorry u guys had to face this kind of incident. 😢
Alan and Shannon, guys please be safe out there! Always remember national emergency number in Bangladesh is "999". Call 999 if you are in such situation ever again in Bangladesh. Emergency service is actually quick and 24/7 active.
Chipping in for future plane or train ticket
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
Glad that you are safe in the end. Greetings from Amsterdam!
Dear Alan you are a very decent level headed person. Props to you for standing up for the people effected by that accident. Am an Indian from Kolkata, West Bengal. I am sorry to say but such is the culture and state of the South Asian subcontinent. India isn't much different. You might not like it but chaos and indiscipline is so naturalized in us that we forget basic human duties often. Cheers brother! May your journeys be safe!
Learning from China, overnight passenger buses must to stop for rest from 2:00am-5:00am,The driver must not be tired driving, which is responsible for the life of the whole passnger.
China has it worked out
