Born in Africa is living the life in legendary mode.
rubbish mode..
This is pure Congo. Hope you enjoy it :)

Love it
Loved the video, the POV makes it feel like I'm the taxi driver :D
Passy productions are getting more professional every day, love it. Greetings from The Netherlands
Thank you very much!
I love the double POV from the GoPro on him and you following on a bike !
thank you
This looks like a hell on Earth. If i were there i would probably escape to the savannah in search of the tribal bushmen so i can live with them instead. Really, chasing gazelles with a spear and a bare butt seems like a better life to losing braincells in the pollution of 100s of old cars for money that can't even pay to fix the car.
Either way, i am thankful for this rare insight into the daily lives of ordinary Congolese people and i acknowledge the sacrifice of the drivers who are keeping the people fed, literally bringing the food to the markets. Keep up the good work, i am loving the content. Love from Bulgaria 🇧🇬🇧🇬
Congo doesn't really have bushman. They have savanna, but the people out there mostly farm for incredibly shit wages.
Congo is exploited by the white man and Congolese corrupt politicians. The amount of resources God gave Congo should allow its citizens to live a more comfortable life. Don’t be ignorant bro.
Man that Escort has been driven hard and its awesome that It Just keeps going. Congrats from Brazil. Love your videos
Is the steering wheel even connected to the steering? It doesn't look like it lol
Slices of life and cars, videos should be longer and more numerous 👏🏻👏🏻
The wood propping up the collapsed windshield is wild.
Start/stop-button makes it very luxurious! Love the woodtrim holding the shattered front window too. This is the real life!
What kind of bitter apocalypse am I witnessing here? Poor people, poor country, poor car... The engine is living out its last days, the left mirror is like a consumable, the interior is dead, the windshield is hanging on by a stick, acrid smoke from burning oil pours into the interior. Money for travel, like candy wrappers, carelessly flies into the door niche, because it is worth nothing. The streets are dirty and disorderly. But maybe, despite this, all people are happy? If so, then all of the above is nonsense)
😂😂😂😂😂😂hallo bro I am from indonesia
Są może i szczęśliwi, bo nie znają innego życia...
Life is beautiful everywhere. People gotta make the most of it and do the best they can. I like seeing authentic videos of everyday life in other parts of the world
They wont migrate to where the food is
Right another banger monsieur ! Love the way your videos show life as it is.
Another great video from Passy. Thanks for showing everyday life in Congo. Greetings from Poland.
Thank you Passy for bringing these videos to the channel and seeing what the atmosphere is like on the streets of Kinshasa. Unfortunately, garbage is a problem in many African countries.

Dude that ride cost 50cents. What a difference Africa-Europe. In my country mister taximan will take 20euro for that ride
How can you even afford gas with such low prices
@@1marcelfilms Petrol in Congo costs $1.5/litre. His car probably uses at least 15l/100km on average (bad roads + nonexistent car maintenance + loaded to the max), which means every kilometer costs him 23 cents in petrol.
There is no way this is sustainable
So my guess is stolen/smuggled petrol or some moonshine type home-made stuff
Yes, but would you want to live there?
@@nts_nathaniel Few things here: it looked like each fare was 1000CDF ($0.35) and there were about 6-7 passengers in that car (Say $2ish). Only a couple of KMs travelled so $0.70 fuel cost. = $1.35 gross profit.
BUT.... if the boot badge is believed, that car was an Escort TD (diesel), and given the smoke, I would say it was running on waste oil of some sort. So the costs could be lower.
@@nts_nathanielit's diesel, not petrol!
Warm greetings from Germany ✌️
Awesome content man thanks! Hi from the USA.
Excellent 🎉really great videos - keep it up and really appreciate them, great to see the other side of the world
Давай побольше таких видео! Привет из России ✌
Russia also imports lots of used cars from wealthy nations.

Thx for video. It was interesting😊
Great Video, pls more :)
Great video man !!

Watching from the uk ❤
i remember this car :) good vid!

Great video! I really liek the idea of two cameras - one from the driver POV and other from behind the car!
Это видео нужно показывать тем , кому не нравится работать в Москве на Яндексе 😁😁😁
Как яндекс тариф "вместе" 😂
strong shit.
the escort is even a diesel nice
Wow i didnt press video so fast
Much respect from the US!!
Watch this video in 240p to get the full African experience.
Alter krass das die Leichen da noch laufen😄. Grüße aus Deutschland ✌️
I wish one day to travel to places like this. When you live in a first world country the mere thought of living in a place like this is incomprehensible. Would be amazing to see the different ways of life across the world, atleast once.
Or rather say that you'd just like to be another poverty porn tourist.
Congo is not for beginners.
5:27 coming from the US this was very interesting. Left handedness is such a weird thing and differs in so many culltures
Very cool to see, where in Congo is this? Kinshasa?
Greetings from Kenya 🇰🇪
Ser un Taxista en África es super estresante
Every parts of the car: 🤯
The camera: 😎
Thanks
Which Congo is this in? ( Did I miss being told?)
Этот тот самый серый, перекрашен в красный Эскорт, который был на канале? Или там у всех фордов такие же кнопки запуска двигателя?
Esse país é um destino ingrato para humanos, animais e automóveis. Miséria por toda parte !
Let's get dirrrty
let's get dirrrty!
Hallo Passy, interessantes Video. Weißt du wieviel er pro Tag verdient? Wieviel kostet der Sprit im Kongo? Ist der Ford Escort ein Diesel? Viele Grüße aus Darmstadt Andreas
Кои град е това
Uber Elite
🤣🤣
This comment write a frend of Nikol, this is something absolutely crazy. Car in horible condition but i know, this is reall life in Afrika. Very sad.
コンゴも日本車があるね
結構きれいなフォレスターが見えた
africa tends to import tons of japanese domestic market cars
Negotiations between prices of 0.30 and 0.50$ for a taxi ride is insane.
Diesel?
Лайк. Подписался. Снимай дальше. Очень интересно.😊
Ndeko vidéo ya toyota ist stp. J'adore ton travaille
Dude at 4:15 has a guardian angel.
😂
Ich liebe diese Videos. Aber warum muss überall Müll herumliegen? Auch wenn man arm ist, kann man doch sauber leben.
Viele Grüße aus Deutschland
Tja da kümmert sich niemand um die Umwelt aber buntländ wird das Weltklima mit e Autos retten 😂😂😂denk mal drüber nach.
For a moment i thought it was california

And nobody cares about the garbage lying around.
They get every single mile out of a vehicle man
Congo=Pure Life perfekt
watching it from vietnam & it's look like in the 90s & 2000 in my country 🙄
Привет из России! Сними пожалуйста ваш автомобильный рынок, цены на автомобили и грузовики! Очень интересны грузовики! Есть ли у вас лада 4х4 нива, или другие советские или российские автомобили? Заранее огромное спасибо! Здоровья и удачи!
This reminds me of Philippines
Столько мусора на дороге! 😮
Majd ha Európa is így néz ki amikor ezt a sok szemetet ide hozza a szél ….
Качество контента растет
If the government would go ahead and purchase some street sweeping machines, it'll already look a lot cleaner. What a health hazard.
Like Berlin in a few years
Gelukkig geen APK daarzo......😆
I want to be African and Congo please!
Конго!
Man all those poor cars!
8:24 wow just toss the money in the door pocket?
Is it a diesel? What is the white smoke?!
Looks like engine combustion "blowby" that has been routed via a added-on pipe to the back of the car so the smoke doesn't come out of the engine bay. :D
Petrol engine. Trunk lid is from TD Escort. Passy has shown this Escort few video ago.
With civil war going on in my country, I just hope it wouldn't become like shown here one day.
When people pay for their ride, they look the other way - no eye contact and no ‘thank you’. Is that just a cultural difference?
Hier dürfen keine Plastik Deckel auf dem Boden liegen.Da eine Müllkippe auf der Strasse.Auf dem Wochenmarkt Tausende Fliegen auf dem Fleisch.
Where is the street cleaners?
they dont exist
@@JJustMax I guess so by the state of the place

Look how they have destroyed the Earth around them.................................................
Always Offended Never Ashamed............................
Why they are living like this?!
no money
@@ikupreza Why no money? Money can be earned and it will be. Kongo is the richest country in Africa.
@@ISA_LA_CA other countries exploit congo and other african countries resources.
wow i love old and ruin cars
Если бы не цвет кожи, я бы подумал что это россиюшка в будущем! 😂
C’est quoi toutes ces poubelles par terre mon dieu comment peut-on vivre encore comme sa
Living in Africa is like living life on hard mode. It's not easy, but at least it's not North Korea.
самое страшное, что они ОБРЕКАЮТ НА ТАКУЮ ЖИЗНЬ СВОИХ ДЕТЕЙ ... плодятся в аду бездумно ....
cars shouldnt be in Africa except SA tbh
Какое дерьмо у них
This video generalises Africa. It's like showing a bad part of one country in the whole of Europe and then calling that Europe. South Africa, which is a country in Africa for those who are clueless, is nothing like this. Secondly, this video shows how sad it is in some parts. The Congo is the richest country in the world in terms of resources but because of corruption and the US and European countries stealing the resources via the corrupt govermemt, the country remains poor and the people suffer. It's infuriating. Europe and the US needs to leave Africa alone and stop meddling.
Какая грязь!!! Антисанитария!!! "Спасибо" США и европе за их колонии!! Они приносят "мир" этому континенту😂
