Deadliest Journeys - Haiti: Hell in Paradise

- 00:00 Haiti is the poorest country in the Caribbean. To travel across the country, people and their goods must use only dirt tracks.
02:55 Haiti, once known as the pearl of the Antilles.
14:41 Employment for all ages.
18:40 An island of many religions and many dangers.
27:48 Salt workers, women with a frantic pace of work.
29:25 Haiti, with steep paths and corrupt politicians.
36:23 Miners still searching for gold nuggets.
44:55 When bad weather further complicates their journey.
Travelling the 80km that separates Gonaïves and Môle Saint Nicolas in the North-east takes up to ten hours. There is one bus which makes the journey, and it is far from a comfortable ride.
Directors : Alexandre Spalaikovitch and Guillaume Lhotellier
The tire repair kid would go far with the proper education, coming up with a solution on your own and then capitalizing on it is a sign of a brilliant mind..
Who else just started randomly watching this during lockdown and is now addicted
I'm addicted for sure 😄
Nope, it wasn’t random or addictive for me, I like this type of documentary about how wonderful places are, knowing that these places will stay on my list of my places I will never, even if I was well enough, visit, especially places like Haiti where successive governments and rulers have allowed ,or even played a major role in, them going to ratsh1t, and then blaming others for their issues. 😀👍🇬🇧🏴
Me . especially the narrator love listening to him
Yes I am addicted now for about 5 days, started to watch 1 a day but now want more!! really great great documentaries!!

I'll never complain about how difficult life is here in Alabama, USA again.
Same here in Berlin, complaining for stupid things ffs.
Sweet home Alabama.lol
@@dasbose4962 the covid recession and small freedoms we have lost the last year suddebly seem less hars after seeing something like this.
Same here in Dubai
@@alejandromorales7050 ,,,,, I hope that prevails for you....
I love these docus. Leaning back in my Herman Miller and sipping on coffee. Every westerner should be grateful, even the poor ones.
I will make sure to tell all the homeless people in downtown Atlanta and the people living in their cars
And in Canada we complain about how government isn't providing enough help to support our fragile mental health and whether we are actually male or female. Watching these videos should be mandatory in every high school for at least two hours a day. Absolutely bizarre and disgusting how soft and infantilized we have become. Better yet, we should all be made to live in Haiti for a minimum of a year on what these people have to live on.
Watching this in the ac room with full stomach i thank jesus how blessed we are thank u god
Sadly god doesnt care for us all equally...its sad
@@darkbozo11 what's the pecking order, in your estimation? i will suggest that god doesn't give a rats @ss about anyone. people treat one another unfairly, god doesn't interfere.
Yes we r thank u jehovah God.
Amen! We think it's rough here. All kids should be able to see this in school.
Yes thank you god and Jesus for letting these other ppl suffer and not me. Truly excellent of you lol
The "Deadliest Journeys" series is positively captivating. I like watching how people overcome problems that seem insurmountable. I can't stop watching and cheering on the indomitable spirit of the people featured in the videos.
Problems often created by the same people. Here it would make sense to have some organisation and create a road. There is money in Haiti, if everyone is corrupt then nothing happens. No point complaining either.
@@Cha4k They don't have the mental capacity to think ahead. Most are descendants of slaves, people who ran around in the savanna, eating what was available. Now they are all on a fairly small island.
Indomitable spirit and overcoming problems ? We clearly didn't watch the same video and you are ignoring the clearly obvious truths and instead pretending . They DO NOT solve even the simplest of problems and sit there waiting for help while the buildings crumble on their heads , pipes rust away , roads dissintigrate , fields spoil and trees disappear . . They instead complain that nobody is helping them but when people try to help them they steal and turn insanely corrupt until the helpers simply cannot take it anymore and leave .
Westerners come in to plant them crops because they are starving -- the locals salt and destroy the crops once they sprout because they thought the devil was under the earth pushing up the stalks with a long stick . True story . They refuse to plant new trees because effort , or because they are incapable of thinking of the future . Look at a satellite image of Haiti and be amazed that you can see the border so clearly , since they have destroyed the ecology there so entirely and do zero maintenance , zero thinking ahead and have no respect .
Things will never get better if you are all either coddling them and doing everything for them , or pretending as you are that they are all well meaning , indomitable and overcoming problems with ease because by saying so you think you are helping make yourself appear virtuous . You want to help ? Be HONEST . Not mean , HONEST . Can we no longer even do that much ?
@@SabbaticusRex Exactly. It's the usual 3rd world problem, the same people who complain about government corruption are corrupt themselves. If they got any power, they'd be just like the other leaders. If you have a culture where corruption, theft, cheating is acceptable then there's nothing better to hope for.
it make you blessing of what you got in your country .
The narrator of this is the best!!
I've been to Haiti but only to the tourist area which is immaculate. It's hard to believe what the real Haiti is like, and the hard life the people have. I cringed seeing the bus and truck struggling over the rocky roads, and in the heat. The woman taking her gold to the trader made me wonder about his honesty; she was at his mercy, after so much back-breaking work. Here in north America we are so isolated from their lives, having little idea what they go through every day just to survive.
Peace and love to all my brothers and sisters in Haiti from Nigeria ✌🏾
Theres something so cool about those old machines that are still kept alive well past a million miles on those rough roads.
Agreed! Here in the USA it eventually gets to a point where the vehicle requires so much labor to make significant repairs that they're sold off. Many of those same vehicles make their way to developing economies across the globe where they begin their new life.
I’m from Mexicali, Mexico 🇲🇽 and for a couple years now we have been welcoming Haitians 🇭🇹 they have even received Mexican citizenship
Does mexico have stable economy these days?
@@dhavalp5285 what country has a stable economy now a days lol? 🤣🤷♀️
@@Juicy_shydoll well...thats a point
@Finch Mann OMG just be realistic don’t you get the point!??? In their situation any country is better than their own!!
I spent six months in Haiti and have lived in Mexico 12 yrs now. Both countries have warm friendly people. It's the rich elite's in all countries that disservice their countries and keep the poor poor.
Ask the red cross how much money it gave haiti, which was hundreds of millions that was donated for Haiti
This channel never fails to satisfy me 🙏
I lived just outside Little Haiti in Miami for a few years. Overall the Haitians are good people. They are family oriented, respectful, honest and hard working. They have a good sense of humour too. Unfortunately there is much racism against them. I wish the best for they're country and people.
I know they have a reputation for being good at business.
People of Miami are racist against Haitians? #endracism
I hope the whites and Trump will respect them in florida.
@@richardcawas6116 i despise trump but being racists to white people only creates more hatred
This country shares the same island with Dominican Republic. One is well known shithole and another is a prime tourist destination. Haiti is just 27 years younger than the United States. One is a sole superpower of the world another is a poorest shithole of the Western Hemisphere. Pathetic... So called stereotypes, are frequently earned by reputation and guess what! Little Haiti is well known shithole of Miami too...
Lord have mercy, I can’t believe conditions like this exist for them ... i see many Haitians living in the states and I wonder if they would go back to help their country I come from Trinidad and Tobago and I can only hope they see better days 🇹🇹❤️🇭🇹
I’m addicted and it’s 2023. Love seeing how resourceful people can be and watching hopefully keeps us all humble…….
They are such strong, beautiful, resourceful and persistent people. I admire their strength and the fact they keep pushing through such a hard and unforgiving place
The place isn’t actually “hard and unforgiving.”
It’s what they made of it that’s hard and unforgiving.
@@grapesofwrath1984 No one in this documentary has anything to do with the corruption and imperialist policies that caused Haiti's downfall, they're simply suffering the aftermath
@@spartan963300 That’s exactly the mindset that perpetuates their suffering.
@@grapesofwrath1984 easy for you to say from a functioning country
@@spartan963300 Oh, we’re far from perfect. We have our fair share of problems, and we have lot of poverty, because of that mindset too.
Fortunately, more people are getting more conscious of what needs to be done and who to really blame - themselves and their own leaders.
“Every nation has the government it deserves.”
Sad to see the country being so desolate. If you look at the greenery in the Dominican Republic, you'd be surprised to know that these two countries share the same island. At least it has resourceful & creative people like that bicycle-repair boy. God bless these people... may their future be bright.
God doesn’t exist.
@@luxyluz2442 Depends on your definition of God
I don't blame the poor people of Haiti, but Haiti is a very clear example about what happens when you can't even manage your primary resources (land, water, forests) in a sustainable way. We do it all over the planet, but it is most clear on an island, that our earth has its limits. Soon we'll all end up like in Haiti with no fertile soils left, forests on the hills cut, subsequent floods, lack of drinkable water...
@@l.d.t.6327 overpopulation. the elephant in the room that nobody wants to address. just more and more copium "sustainable" "environmentally friendly" short-sighted, temporary solutions. It will not matter in the end. So many people will die.
aaaaaaand now they're cannibals
When life throws you a lemon, you make lemonade. Hats off to people in Haiti.
The women on bus their skin is flawless and beautiful.

Oh my heart hurts! As an african these people are our family/people! African and Africa help!😭😭😭💔🙏
Imagine Haiti is poorer than the poorest country in Africa
Yes, please my fellow Africans. Help your island Africans.
Something is wrong with black leaders
7 children? Why on earth do they keep having children when they know how difficult it is to survive? That's wild.
Ignorant and lack of family planning
cuz dumb ppl allways have many children.
No condom
I am so impressed by the ingenuity and sheer dererminedness, the people that travel those roads have.
looks like a neverending nightmare
Its been shown a few months ago,,, ITS OLD NEWS SORRY,,, ITS REPEATED AS NEW WHEN ITS NOT ORIGINAL!! ITS OLD
@@dollydollydolly7277 facts
Im so addicted to this documentary's, I stay up till 3am
Solar ovens and solar cookers as used in India would reduce their energy requirements.
Lol I think that is the least of there worries. GLY
You should travel to Haiti for a nonprofit organization
Been tried
I leave in Africa Zambia I now appreciate my country very much
"live".
I was impressed by the Boy at 45:40 with the monarcas morelia tshirt soccer team from michoacan Mexico 🇲🇽
It makes me embarrassed to watch these poor people, whilst I am sitting supping a can of Beer, with a full stomach. Seeing those kids begging at the side of the road is so sad. God bless them all.
You are very great friends...a god level driver ...and most like his cooperation with a full sense of kinship of family...greeting from Indonesia 🇲🇨🇲🇨🇲🇨
Life is tough every where , keep working for just survival
Wish All the people from Haiti change and prosperity in their country 🙏🙏🙏🔥🔥 Especially infrastructure good presentation of this documentary Big up to the cameraman and the crew involved Much love and support from kenya 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🙏🙏🙏🙏
Me too so they would stay out of the USA
Good job.. i hav watched all the episodes of Deadly journeys it's best of all...keep on making such great documentary. I feel smile when the translator translate the people's words...😀😀
The narrator’s impression of the peoples voices is so bad its hilarious ..Awesome show
The pain the sufferings the fatigue the stress but a very moral boosted people and god loving. Its just extreme may god be with you guys always.
I meet some millionaire Haitians in Miami ,they talk how beautiful is Haiti and always want to go back home one day and invest,if only they can put hands together and build a decent road first to help the movement between cities,it’s absolutely shocking
Haiti would be great like it once was but The US government need to stop its Anti-Haitian policies and stop stiring up trouble in the country. Stop invading haiti and stay out of their internal affairs and the country would be great.
@@nomoreechochambers like my country, Haitian should get rid of its corrupt government first.
@@graciamaria9218 its corrupt government is american puppets and American officials are imbeded inside government to continue damaging the country from the inside out. Tell america get the hell out and stay out. There's a trail of trouble every where this U.S.
two party dictatorship goes.
@@nomoreechochambers are you that ignorant? There are literally billions of dollars that the US invests in Haiti. Things like clean water, infrastructure, democracy, safety, etc. are all things the us has been doing. The US is the #1 reason why Haiti has not collapsed into utter chaos. Shut up with your communist propaganda.
@@cheezy_ow2588 the US. Is the main reason why haiti is in chaos as we speak... dont believe everything you see on the news. Where are those millions of investments? How come the people never see the money... listen idiot those money are falling in the pockets of the elites, the NGO's are sucking up some of it and large corporations of which does not serve the people are gobbling up the money too. The US. Keeps rigging the elections, they are violating the haitian constitution, they are building prisons in haiti to lock all the people up that disagree with them... Haiti needs to kick them out and start fresh and live free and trade with whoever is willing to trade with them especially when it will serve the interest of both countries.
Watching these documentaries has made me realise how privileged I am and I live in Kenya, a country with its fair share of problems
Another great Deadliest Journeys! Unfortunately, since this was filmed, the situation in Haiti has gotten even worse. Hoping they can recover as soon as possible.
everytime i see one of these shows i think my god im lucky!!! good luck to them.
Can you break down what you just said a little more ? I'm confused 😅 Good luck to them?
Lol THAT WILL BE THE NEW AMERICA IN ABOUT 9 MONTHS

I've seen "Poverty" in Jamaica but god damn!! Haiti makes me see that their is levels to this $hit.. Bad roads in Jamaica means 'pot holes,.Bad roads in Haiti literally means no roads...Hunger in Jamaica means ,i can't afford what I really want to eat..Hunger in Haiti literally means hunger,..The poverty is so potent in Haiti that you feel it in your spirit. ...Wow..Am heart broken.
Well said friend.
Notice how nearly everyone is rail thin. Minimal diet, without the sugar westerners eat in excess.
Nah, I've seen waaaaayyyyyyy worse Poverty than this, have u seen the people in Nigeria that live on the water, watch that one...
My favourite narrator is back 😍😍❤️
Such beautiful people inside and out!!!
I have learned to stop complaining after watching this video. Rive and beans everyday.
"beans" ..? they should be so lucky.....it's rice and pea soup.
@PaulLonden I believe He was referring to his own diet.
Nice video, always watching videos from this channel
Thanks for sharing informative video!!!
WOW!! I’m not gonna complain already..
Love your channel 👍👍
God bless Haiti it's a very beautiful country and beautiful people.

25:26 Friendly tip to people new to changing tires, always tighten your screws in a star shape pattern so your wheels dont wobble like his are.
Really realistic video. I really enjoyed watching it.
Interesting video. Regards and blessings from Panama☺

Before I went through this documentary I thought TANZANIA we have difficult life but we have to thank GOD for the better infrastructure and social amenities ,proud to be a tanzania
I was feeling sorry for the situation I'm in but after watching this video I feel blessed. The struggle is great in Haiti.
MY FAVORITE DOCUMENTARY TOO IS THE Papua New Guinea ( The worlds dangerous way to school) and I love watching all the documentaries..way better than the fake scripted videos..

This is channel is very important for me . Everyday i see this is video channel
There are more affluent parts of Haiti that are amazing to see. They are only showing the poor areas.
That’s the point yes showing us the rough side I been to Haiti and had a beautiful time there I loved it but it was also heart breaking I didn’t get to see how hard it really is I’m having a good time and these people are struggling worst than me I have nothing to cry about god bless Haiti
All of haiti is poor 😐 its just there are less poor areas.
but camera man going and filmimg is great in that tough conditions .
Watching from philippines...😁
@@ungeimpfterrusslandtroll7155 excuse me shithole?

Amazing Video I Like Ur Channel
Got to say just one thing ,...... 15 Euros one way only for around 150 miles on a dirt road is actually insult to injury !
This is expensive enough even in the US or Canada !
Buenos vídeos 🇨🇷😎🇨🇷😎👍🥇
They work to ten o'clock to fill five bags of dirt. And after four days of work she got 3 euros for the gold. How much are the miners making?
4:00 lol I had that same blanket growing up.
At around the 7:30 mark, my uncle and I were traveling om this very route and we hit a rock that caused our pickup truck to stall, on an incline! I thought we were going to slide into the Ocean. Scary stuff!
Haiti beautiful country. Beautiful hard working people hope to visit one day.
Nothing says poverty like the complete lack of cell phones. Even here in Mexico, EVERYONE has one.
The young mechanic without parents, working very hard to pay for school is commendable.
Lots of love from PAKISTAN
This just clearly shows why foreign people come to America and do so well. The work ethic that they have to survive is unthinkable. God bless this country and it's people. God speaks of one day the meek inheriting the earth!
So I was holding my breath when he was under that bus with only a bottle jack meant for cars protecting him from certain death..
reminds me of when i used to bounce all over the country on greyhound buses complaining like a lil baby,now i feel like i had to good lol way too good
Curious as to what was used to film it, some of the shots look like a 360 camera to achieve the high drone like shots
In twenty years South Africa will be in the same shape.
The dude with the sun glasses missing a lens is crazy. That would give me a headache
It's good to learn 😌
200 years ago, this was a lush green jungle-it has been deforested and ruined. What Haiti needs is intelligent land use
It was the wealthiest agricultural exporter of the caribees until the revolution
37:30 Those tunnels were giving me claustrophobic panic attacks...
Omg those fried fish and bananas look like they deserve a visit
After watching this I will never complain again.
37:08 Look at those children running down happily 😊
Very interesting. 👍👍🇺🇲
