Cycling Across Two Continents in One Day (Turkish POLICE tried to stop us)
My mate, Ross, had some Turkish relatives that he had never met. Located in a city buried inside the Asian part of the country, we decided to cycle 100km east from the capital, Istanbul, a journey which would begin in Europe, to find these distant relatives, many of whom speak no English. This treacherous quest, for which we had done little to no planning, took us 100km in a single day on truck-infested highways, and over hills through the Turkish countryside in brutal 38°C heat. Can we find Ross's long lost relatives, or will we become stranded in hostile ex-Ottoman controlled territories?

A Day Exploring Istanbul (local called him GAY!)
Просмотров 24423 часа назад
This four part series was a trip completely unrelated to squash, where I travelled with a university friend to try and find his distant Turkish relatives, over 100km to the east of Istanbul. The trip included a 100km bike ride across two continents, being stopped by the the Turkish police (twice!) and as the title states, getting called gay by the locals! I spent a day in Turkey's capital, Ista...
First Englishman to play European Squash Championship in 5 years
Просмотров 64114 дней назад
I just competed in the ESF European Individual Closed Squash Championship 2024 in Cuenca, Spain, an event that England have not sent a representative to since 2019. Why not, you ask? Good question. I saw the event on the PSA Squash Tour calendar, advertised as rewarding competitors with the same number of world ranking points as a 15k Challenger Tour event, so it piqued my interest. I got in to...

My worst financial loss at a tournament 🇫🇷

This is the reality for many when starting out on the Professional Squash Association tour. I usually only play events where the prize money can at least break me even or make some profit, however I played this event by mistake! I know, you're thinking, 'how can you play an event by mistake?!'. Well, the way tournament entries work is there is an entry deadline and a withdrawal deadline three h...

In this tournament vlog I travel to compete in a Professional Squash Association Challenger 6k event in The Hague, Netherlands. In this video you will see why The Hague is one of my favourite places to compete in, and why staying with a host is one of the most special things you can do as a touring professional athlete.
LA's most DANGEROUS hood at night
Просмотров 6362 месяца назад
Home to over 4,400 homeless, Skid Row is notorious in LA for drug dealing, human trafficking, sexual assault and other violent crimes. You wouldn't want to go here in the day, let alone the night! In LA to compete in a professional squash tournament, I took the opportunity to explore this famously dangerous neighbourhood with a fellow player, to see for myself just how unsafe this place really is.
Competition and Culture in LA
Просмотров 3822 месяца назад
A few months ago I travelled to LA to compete in my first professional squash tournament outside of Europe. A Challenger Tour event with £15,000 of prize money up for grabs, I was excited to take my career to the next level. Provided with five start accommodation and competing inside the hotel's sports arena made for a very new experience for me. After the event, I spent a couple of days explor...

In this video I explore the Paper Market and Bolton Market. These are the two most busy markets in Karachi, Pakistan. Join me in the back streets where I chat to some of the paper manufacturers and shopkeepers that bring these bustling markets to life.
Solo in Karachi's most DANGEROUS hood
Просмотров 2,1 тыс.2 месяца назад
Famously the most dangerous area in Karachi, the notorious no-go zone, Lyari, is said to in the past have been run by street gangs, been home to lawlessness, politically motivated violence and high levels of crime due to a limited presence of law enforcement agencies. Home to over 1 million people, I headed into the densely populated slum to see for myself just how dangerous it was.
Attending early morning prayer in Karachi, Pakistan
Просмотров 4,7 тыс.2 месяца назад
Every morning between the break of dawn and sunrise, the call to prayer takes place all over the Muslim world. As a non-Muslim, I was intrigued as to what it was like to attend Fajr, the first prayer of the day. In this video I show you my experience of attending such a prayer, in one of the hundreds of mosques spread across the city of Karachi, Pakistan.
Pakistan's most DANGEROUS city at night

Wandering the streets of Karachi at midnight is the first thing they tell you not to do when visiting Pakistan. So naturally, I felt compelled at the first available opportunity to give it a go and see for myself just how dangerous Pakistan really is.

You did amazing Will. I am proud of you. More of such opponents like Mo will definitely push you into the double-digit rankings.
Thank you bro, I appreciate that 👊🏼 can’t wait to play with you in Ghana one day 😀
You should Come Again
I will do one day 🙏

Off the charts insults from the Turks
They didn’t hold back did they 😳😂
MAY ALLAH S.W.T GUIDE ALL OF US TO THE STRAIGHT PATH ❤
Fantastic mate, class video
Cheers mate 💪🏻
Dangerous 😂
Haha I know right!
This was a great perspective
Cheers mate 🙏
Doesnt look worse then Monmouth 😀
Oi Monmouth is nice enough 😉😂
What did Mo say to you after your match? Love the BTS footage and commentary.
Thanks 😃 He was actually asking me if I wanted to play another game on the glass court! But the organisers wouldn’t let us as they had to prepare the court for the next match
@@willsaltersquash Awesome. Excited to watch your journey up the rankings.
Cheers mate I appreciate that 👊🏼
Nice, keep on filming your way. Greetz from Germany
Danke! I recently competed in Bremen, I’m sure I will be back in Germany playing at some point. I posted my Bremen vlog a couple of weeks ago if you’re interested 😃👍🏼
Great hustle Will! Thought you had a great battle
Thanks mate I gave it a good go! 💪🏻
Very proud of you. Bonkers

The african is good, no doubt about it

Well done Will. Onwards and upwards. Bonkers
Thanks Bonkers!!!

What's the story with shorbagy becoming a uk citizen? Did he marry someone? Or has he been living there as a resident?
He’s lived in the UK since the age of 14 and had actually lived here longer than he’s lived in Egypt. So he had the right to become a citizen.
@@willsaltersquash had the right ................ seem like everyone got some right except the locals
@@zsbacskai7331 found the right wing nut job 🙄
@@SaltyDingleberry3000 the beast of Bristol
Its unbelievable how Mo can bully a rank 189 player
I wouldn’t say he bullied me to be honest. If I gave him a loose ball he shut me out for the winner, but I would’ve tried to do the same
@@willsaltersquash I understand it’s a different pressure in the comps but I’ve seen enough matches from Mo to read his body language. You could tell he wasn’t even trying (esp in game 3). It’s probably just lack of big match experience cos you would most likely have all the shots in the book but during comps, players like us just tend to play fast, keep our bodies stiff and overthink (speaking for myself at least).
@@willsaltersquashnope, you got bullied. Nothing wrong with it though, I wouldve got completely obliterated 😂
I don't know where you see that in the match. Elshorbagy is better, sure. But the other player doesn't get bullied.
@@hamaja18agreed
Nice to see you playing so well, a bit of a step up from Monmouth leisure centre.
Haha yeah just a bit 🤣🔥
Great video Will.. keep it up! ❤
Thanks Joan 😃 I will 💪🏻
What an opponent to have for your squash TV debut
Couldn’t ask for a better induction to the big stage!!
It would be cool if you did analysis of this match
Yeah a few people have told me that! I’ll bear it in mind 👊🏼
Will - amazing stuff ! I cant believe i use to beat you 😀😀😀 Great stuff !!!
Haha cheers Andrius! I hope you’re keeping up a decent level of squash still 😉😃
I really like the commentary portion where you reviewed you're game against Mo. Hope to see more insight on how you you play against top level squash players.
Cheers mate feedback like this is very useful. I’m enjoying posting a mix of squash content and some less squash related travel content. Trying to draw in a wider audience to our sport and not just the squash nuts! Nothing wrong with squash nuts by the way 🤣

Well done Will! It was nice to meet you in Aber, good luck for the season
Thanks very much! Aber was such a great place, I’ll have to come back and vlog it next time 💪🏻
Good run Will, enjoyed watching your match with Mo, and was great to meet you! All the best for next week!
Cheers mate, likewise! 😃👊🏼
The one who prays Fajar at the masjid is not a munafiq [pretend muslim]. Thanks for sharing your take. I wish fajar is busier than the late night follies we mortal have the habit of!

GReat vid mate. It's tough for you guys - you deserve much much more.
Cheers mate the tougher the journey, the sweeter the victory!!
How you have spended the Night in such a dangerous terrorist area? Don't you feel afraid? I am an Indian.
To be honest I didn’t feel very in danger. The slight bit of fear I felt was from people in the UK and western media telling me it was dangerous. My own experience was quite different.
Nice to follow you around and get glimps of the tour life. It’s a beautiful struggle. 😅
Haha beautiful struggle is spot on 😂 couldn’t have put it better myself. Hopefully it will all be worth it 😃
@@willsaltersquash i’m rooting for you. Keep it up, you are talented and 💪🏼
Brilliant insight 👌. Great to watch
No worries, glad you enjoyed the realities for many players in these lower events!
May Almighty guide u to the righteous path

Sad to see masque after Ramadan. Do visit within that month for true glory.
I will 🙏
What a sh**t hole this ‘Karachi’ is. Not for me thank you.
Great vid it differs from others which i like
Thanks for the feedback. I want to make more videos like this in the future. Videos of my experiences in the places I visit, not just the squash aspects.
Hey yo, I am from Pakistan. Just go to Mirpur go to all over to Mirpur make a video because I live in Spain, but I am Pakistan please. I’m your biggest friend. I’m your biggest fan.
