Kowloon Walled City was the most densely populated place ever in all of world history. Unfortunately, the city was demolished in 1994 but what would your life have been like if you lived inside? This is my attempt to explain.

Meanwhile nearby Kai Tak Airport where planes landed after flying over the Kowloon Walled City was also demolished - four years later in the year 1998. It was, at that time, one of the most dangerous airports in the world since it exceeded capacity and caused a lot of noise pollution in nearby neighborhoods. A new airport was built on the island of Chek Lap Kok off Lantau Island and has been there ever since; the last departure from Kai Tak was a Cathay Pacific CX3340 ferry flight to the new Hong Kong International Airport at 1:05AM of July 6, 1998. What's left of Kai Tak Airport is currently a redevelopment site where new buildings would stand including a multi-purpose sports complex, a metro park, the Kai Tak Cruise Terminal, a hotel, a housing estate, and commercial and entertainment construction projects over an area of more than 328 hectares (or 810 acres).
Just wanted to post it too
The Kowloon walled city was not as bad as it is described. I lived there for a couple of years when I was very young. It's a very interesting place. Lots of memories in there.
yeah, this video is weirdly negative and has strong "youtuber clickbait" energy. Not too pleased with this one.
He talking out his ass with no proof. Would love to see live video not just talk!
Living in crowded spaces can be interesting because there's lots of people and you likely to have friends close by. No need to drive far away to hang out, just go down a few floors or buildings etc. At least as kids. As adults maybe it's not as fun.
It’s a literal slum city dude. Garbage, drug needles and poo and urine. It’s equivalent living situation of animals being hoarded. This is people hoarding and not fun for a child lol
@@hunterinfected6 hmm I see. Ok maybe it depends on what kind of people live there. If it's the way you described it you are right then
When you grow up you build concepts and get yourself entangled into it.. I always say, either be a king who rule world and get to do whatveet he likes
Or be a kid who doesn't cares and lives his own little life

Kowloon was so beloved by the people that lived there, even military threat didn't drive them out. Apparently they had the best noodles in Hong Kong. Dentists, Doctors, Barbers, Air Conditioning, Postal Service, even schools all located in there and grown organically.
With a chaperone that actually lived there, I would have loved to spend a couple of days living there and get to experience what the truest freedom in the modern world was like.
Ah yes, nothing says "true freedom" like poverty, addiction, disease and sex slavery!
Pull your head out of your ass, these people were suffering some of the worst living conditions of the modern era. If you want to experience this "true freedom" right now, you can. Walk away from everything you own and just start living as a homeless person in your nearest slum.

@@--Traveler-- Well I certainly wouldn't call it paradise, but it was certainly a freedom they only had there. Now, admittedly, I can only go off the documentaries I saw about the place and the protests that were documented when condemning it, but those things were all shown.

@@isaacng123456789 Got to love those vestigial Britisims.
Fun fact: My dad grew up in the kowloon walled city. Unlike most former residents of the walled city, he came from a family of businessmen/entrepreneurs and as a result, him and his family were able to lift themselves out of poverty. He was the first in his family to earn a degree (from a Canadian University) and now is involved in the high-tech clean energy business. He was a successful man, but most important of all, he was a good man with the kindest and most loving heart. Incredibly proud to call him my father. Watching videos about the Kowloon Walled City makes me respect him so much more, knowing how much he had to endure in order to give me the life I have right now.
Justin Cheng thanks for sharing! :)
Damn, did he ever tell you things bout the city? (If you don't mind me asking)
@Xavier Mratinez Unwanted triad entanglements... His brother got roughed up while he was home alone by some hired muscle, and as a result his brother turned to the triads, and ended up joining them... Witnessing gang fights with knives and machetes after school.... Unsanitary rats and roach-infested shared/public rest rooms... Honestly, despite all the horrors I'm sure he witnessed, he always had a very optimistic outlook towards life. He would share a lot of funny stories as well... Like he would laugh about how his roof flew off of his home during a typhoon, or when he brought home a bird's nest because he wanted to raise it when he was a little boy, but all the birds eventually died. He's one of the most joyful people I know, maybe because he's so grateful for the life he's been given. Considering that most people who also grew up in the walled city are essentially still living in the same conditions.
@@justincheng9241 has he ever thought about releasing a book or some docu/video or something along them lines? Cuz he sounds like someone who made it: lived at a really unsanitary place, fell into a pretty dangerous group of people, but eventually became a successful buisness man and during it all he alaays had his head held high. (Sorry don't mean to pry, but it's interesting to find places like this and know people who experienced it are alive)

and those buildings were built without supervision nor guidance from hong kong authorities. when they needed more space, a floor was added. not more than 14 stories, though, or a plane could swipe your pad.

what about the tent cities in every US city, those people living on the streets would be glad of the walled city.
As a swede, where your private freedom and individuality are your most valued possessions, living here would make me wither. I do commend the courage and true grit of the people that live here because for most of them it's their only choice and they don't know anything else. You are truly lucky on where you are born.

A lack of building regulations or need for basic amenities led to some "creative" structures forming. I like to imagine that the whole city was constantly moving and flexing like a living organism.
So many families, where did they all go when the city was demolished? These are the poorest of people. Very sad.
I stayed at a small hotel in Kowloon back in 1970 along with several other American and Aussie military types on leave from Vietnam. Had a great time but got too drunk one night and ended up lost in the back-streets of what was at the time referred to as 'Old Kowloon'. Finally found my way out and back to my hotel where I was severely admonished for my foolishness by several people, most of whom were actually amazed that I was still alive. If I knew then what I know now I would never have stayed in Kowloon, and certainly not in 'Old Kowloon', but all in all, it was still a unique and great time in my life.
My parents were refugees and stayed in this city when they escaped the war to Kowloon Walled City. Indeed, it was very dense. It is not like what the majority said that negative. People lived in there and helped each other. Also not everyone in the world could or can have the western lifestyle. We work hard yet we can't get fair opportunities for study, for work, or for life.
Ok
Thanks for sharing .
It's your typical hit piece written by a judgmental Westerner. Look at how many times he has to mention people eating dog meat, even though anyone who's born in HK knows it has to be extremely rare, and I've never seen it at all. I've never been in the Walled City myself - grew up in Taikoo in the 1980s. Of course I know slums and shantytowns and house boats were a fact of life until well past the 1990s. People just lived completely normal lives. I'm even willing to bet crime in Kowloon Walled City would have been lower than any US inner city. Certainly, I don't remember ever tripping over homeless drug addicts on the streets in HK. Judgmental Westerners watch these videos to say: "Look at all these dirty Chinese (or insert another group) and how superior we are compared to them."

You’ve missed out a lot of important things. The city even had a set up a old folks home and pensions for the elderly and sick. There was a lot of amazing things set up by the people who lived there. It was also well known for its amazing food. People would travel to the city from outside to eat amazing food. Also they had cops and other folk who worked hard to keep order. So it wasn’t horribly violent. The rooftops were filled with kids playing and older folk sunbathing. The ‘they cooked dog’ feels pretty damn racist too. You could have done much better research on this.

Only one can imagine what would be the condition of the residents of Kowloon Walled City.
3:12
The only reason that dog meat was eaten in Kowloon Walled city was actually because during its time under British occupation in Hong Kong the people there were not governed and the traditional food of dog stew could only be made there as Britain outlawed it everywhere else in Hong Kong. The city technically didn’t belong to either China or Britain. In my opinion that’s not exactly a bad thing it’s just keeping a traditional food alive lol
3:13 Dog meat is a delicacy in many countries.
Hence, the word "Chow" refers to a dog breed, as well as LUNCH.

This is the area where I unknowingly ate dog. The “waiter” thought it was funny. I still can’t believe I ate there. Never went back and thankfully didn’t get sick.

That couldn’t be me. As a introvert, being that jam packed with other people would be a nightmare.
We ported in Hong Kong in the mid 70s. The US Navy said we were not to travel to Kowloon. We did see the Walled City from the ship. It looked very menacing.
Imagine if coronavirus were to break out here
Yee fun 😂😂😁
No joke, virus’s would thrive in high dense populated areas with no sanitation. I wouldn’t be surprised if a place like that was ground zero for one of these viruses.
Well corona virus would be the first one will call 911 for suffocating
