Inside London's Most Dangerous Ghetto 🇬🇧
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 май 2024
- I came to London's most dangerous and roughest areas to see if the rumours were true, starting with Tower Hamlets which has a notorious reputation. My local friend @Abzventure led me into the 'ghetto' to see if the hype of the place was legit, the answers were certainly mixed...
Then we headed to Newham with @Kingkayaamedia who showed us around another supposedly rough area of London where he grew up. We meet the locals who share their thoughts if this really is a place you should avoid. Welcome to London! 🇬🇧
Ben was so preoccupied with thoughts of getting robbed in London he failed to see he got robbed in his hometown of Plymouth at the train station… £120 is daylight robbery brother!
💯💯💯💯💯💯
Thieves and robbers wear suits these days but everyone got their eyes on the hoods 😅
@@beardedninjah7982 💯.
Try travelling in America, lol
He literally called it daylight robbery what are u on about
"Feels like home... I'm from Bangladesh"
💀💀💀
Ya its a complete hell hole and he's just like "feels like home init" haha
Those responsible for destruction are muslims of India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran, Middle East, Bangladesh.
I don't think Christian, Hindu, Buddhist, Zoroastrian Indians or non muslim Persians, Jews are causing any sort of problems.
They are highly educated on average and have highest household incomes and most university degrees. They don't deal with drugs, seek human welfare or asylum or rape.
Moreover except for your communist, globalist prime minister who is an exception I don't think in general hindu and Christian migrants from India are causing any poverty, violence in England.
The media threw trash everywhere.
@@devanman7920 yh not really, i've seen more crime in Kensington than Tower Hamlets
@@zenlob Think you missed the point mate.
“It’s alright, you can hear the crackheads screaming at night, but it’s alright.” 🤣🤣
if that's the worst, i am moving there, i hear them 24 7 where i am and pay a lot more in rent 🤣

I can just picture them roaming the streets at night and screaming, like the zombies in I Am Legend 😂
@@BackpackerBen Hi Ben. Any plans to do Germany. Poland. Maybe visit Gdansk or Dresden in Germany. Explore old WW2 sites
It's whatever people are used to. I've found London at rush hour for instance the eighth circle of hell. But the locals just stumble along like zombies 😵
£120 for a single fare train journey is mental. Avoid paying on the day and book well in advance, looking for Split Save deals...or rise up against the men responsible for fleecing us.
thats insane i wouldnt do it....i just wouldnt....especially there motorcycle for sure everywhere
£55 cheapest I can find from Newcastle to Kings Cross
He can business expense it tbf

Go annoy the germans who own it 🤣
£120 to London. That’s an absolute ass raping

wow
Ben just pulled his pants down, bent himself over the ticket desk and passed a toilet brush to the closest person to him and said “Do your best brother”
Could have travelled cheaper if he went out of peak times. Still ridiculous, but if you know how to get around cheaper you can
Trains are also crazy expensive here in Denmark. It's like they *don't want us* to travel.
Those train prices are absolutely a shitshow!!!
"But, but, but it's the same in all other countries" 🤣
Insane how can a country work that way, who pocket all that money, the real criminals right there
If he booked it a day in advance he could of got it for £70. Surely someone who is well travelled would of known that.
@@michaelstokes919still way too expensive
No one pays that tbf
I just got a return on the same line (South west to Paddington) & it cost me £40 return 😂
That train ticket was daylight robbery 💀

Actually India Today is one of the largest economic powers and currently the fastest growing economy in the world under the current leadership.
Today India is completely different from what it was in 1980 when the country was closed to the global investors and economy.
Check the statistics of United Nations Development Programme, World Bank, International Monetary Fund and Morgan and Stanley - they have clearly mentioned that currently only 14% of the population of India live below poverty line and in last decade 450 million Indians have been lifted out of absolute poverty. Moreover one more strong evidence is the rapidly growing middle class and the booming consumer market.
India Today has the fastest growing consumer market in the world the reason why numerous global brands have and are opening their business in India.
Even in the infrastructure case, there is a massive upgradation going on currently. You see the latest global news reports.
Boeing, Airbus have received their largest purchase orders which are also the largest in the entire history of aviation from Indian airline carrier groups like Air India, Indigo. The reason behind this, more and more number of Indians are travelling by air with more and more airports being built throughout India by the government because the domestic part of India's air transport is far larger than the international part.
Thirdly, India's recent upgradation of its railways with its new fleet of semi high speed trains like Vande Bharat and building of tunnels through mountains in Northwestern and Northeast Indian Himalayas and it's rapidly growing highway, expressway networks and bridges- the Atal sea link recently constructed connecting Mumbai to Pune over the Arabian Sea.
Lastly India recently have became successful in constructing an underwater metro railway.

I am a realist and I honestly say China is already out of the third world status long back and India is rapidly transitioning into a second world country that is it's in the Goldilocks Phase in terms of economists.

Much safer now than the mid 90s 👍🏻
The problem is they live like they did in Bangladesh. Over crowded homes, no intergration and slum areas and spend their money on the car they drive. Its people that make an area. Take some pride in your surrounding and people will have a better opinion of the area. None of these areas a bad places. I live in Stratford, its instagram gansters and the odd shitty street/block.

Ben drops another banging video! I used to live in Bethnal Green… loved it. How many times are we going to hear Ben say “brother” and “As-salamu Alaikum” to everyone he meets!
i find it funny
Great video. I used to live in Plymouth, moved to Forest Gate, right by where you were at the end of your visit in Newham, and now in Startford. The dancing (?) guy at the start of the video, I see him pretty much every time I leave the house.
I work for a drug and alcohol charity supporting young people. Great to hear the encouragement and advice from the locals about staying away from gangs. I'll show this to some of kids I work with. Thanks!!
Just bought a 2.5 hour trip here in Finland for 40e. 1 of Europe's most expensive countries. How is England even functioning at those train prices?

London was English in the 90s. Insane how quickly things go downhill.

There is no integration.

Thanks for the education!
ive lived in north london for a few months from a commuter town in kent and honestly had no problems so far, people round here are nice and will actually stop to talk you, never had that before, never felt scared or threatened at late night/ early mornings, no denying there is problems in london but i definitely think its blown out of proportion even just speaking to people that live here or at work who live all around london
north london is different. undesirables are physically incapable of walking up the highgate & hampstead hills. nicest part of the city as a result
i live in london and i cant stand how people talk lol
It’s so cringe
Its their slang
@ParksRec yes it is cringe, pathetic childish use of the English ( ?) Language.
Cry about it lol... Kids in random little villages across England are starting to speak like this cause they think it's cool
Then leave - your presence won’t be missed lmao
The only people that say tower hamlets is the roughest part of London are people that have never been to London.
Do enlighten us
It’s a dive. I know Stratford very well. I worked there for 5 years.
@fumanchu9701 so because you done a 9-5 in Stratford, you know the place really well ? OK 👍
@@mattlondon2242 no, I’m a shift worker so saw it at all times of the day / night and weekends. Also had a few colleagues that lived there that said it was a dive. I know the carpenter estate as my work place was close by. I’d walk around the area and it was a dive. Even the Westfield shopping centre there is full of dicks. There’s fights kicking off even now and then, and also a stabbing in there a while back. Anything else you’d like to know ?
People go by what they hear... No one from London would say Tower Hamlets is the most dangerous.. I wouldn't of even considered it that dodgy.
Good stuff Ben and you are an awesome geeza bro.
Cheers mate!!
Regardless of how bad of a day I may be having, seeing a Ben upload instantly makes it better. I love these videos so much! Thanks for bringing us along for you adventures my dude.
Legend mate!
That you Ben?
I moved away from East London 2004 and never went back. I used to take my toddler out in the push chair and had to have one eye over my shoulder at all times. Had a couple of guys walk right up to my kids pushchair giving me a stare I’ll never forget. I stared back at them with so much hatred because they were doing it to my kid, and I’ll be honest I would have defended my kid my last breath. I was one of the toughest guys in the area in my mid twenties, but wouldn’t fancy my chances now. It’s gangs outnumbering individual victims with zero honour and zero respect for community.
I cannot believe that Hostel has an operating License ... The Fire Department would close it down immediately .. Lets hope they do !!

Dope episode! I watched another RUclipsr today, covering the same area. I must conclude, I like your content WAAAY better.
I've been to Tower Hamlets (Bow, Bromley, Shoreditch), Hackney, Newham (really just the Westfield Stratford Center) alone both day and night. Only in certain parts of Bow / Bromley-by-Bow did I ever feel a bit uneasy. And I'm from Oregon (U.S.). All these places look quite charming. Nothing like the rough areas in Philly (Kensington) or St. Louis (Northside). The train prices are comparable to NYC to DC, a similar distance of about 200 miles.
That's a low bar, those areas of the USA have a murder rate comparable to warzones in Africa
It's the same story all over the UK - a minority of bad people ruining things for the majority of good people. London is no different, but due to its size, the antics of the bad minority get amplified. Having said that, this country definitely has a problem with knife crime. But what do you expect when the Conservatives have vastly reduced police numbers? Remember that when you go to vote later this year. Not saying Labour or any other party will be better, but we know for a fact what the Tories are like, and it isn't good for the regular folk like us.
If you think voting changes anything, you're either very nieve or too young to know better. It's a not a democracy when your only choices are a load of globalist scumbags vs another load of globalist scumbags. Nothing will change until we scrap the entire system and start again with normal people rather than rich public schoolboys. Sir Kier is every bit as big of a POS as sunak and friends.
I agree. Minorities ruin things
Unfortunately the Tories are Bribing again those well off OAPs .that lot don't give a toss for anyone but their Cash and Triple Lock...always moaning .be glad when they are gone .They hold this Country back..and the Young are Betrayed and Nothing done to help them..or even a chance of their Own Home .

Think of us that have to live here ..
Ben, I am sure it is possible to get a lower priced rail ticket, but it is necessary to plan ahead, have a railcard and be prepared for split ticketing (two or more tickets for the same journey). As for the areas of London, in Newham at the Westfield shopping center (Stratford) there are regular announcements warning people to keep their valuable secure and safe from theft. They wouldn't do that our of joy. This is next to the London 2012 Olympic Park, which is a fab place to visit. Unfortuntely knife crime is a problem in London in general, and you are more likely to get a ticket for speeding in one of the too many 20mph roads than be picked up for having a knife. I used to live nearby but escaped to the coast a few years ago. I go back by train now and again, the whole of East London into Essex has changed, I recognise the roads but little else.

Canning Town is pretty sore. Brick Lane is in Tower Hamlets, safe as houses but Shadwell, which is the next district in Tower Hamlets isn't.
So, when I was last in London, my 10 year old daughter and I ended up wandering around Tower Hamlets (Whitechapel area) looking for an address that we couldn’t find as my phone died. It was 6-8 pm on a Saturday evening. I might add that we’re Americans so it was all new to us. Yeah, it seemed dodgy but frankly not that bad. We ran into some very nice people who were quite helpful. Never felt endangered. I’m sure it’s rough late at night, but compared with most US cities, it wasn’t that bad. It was, however, heavily Bangladeshi which was somewhat of a culture shock to be sure. Have to totally agree with what your mates were saying there. Great video, btw!

Brought back memories I escaped years ago to the South West of England...
Lived in Croydon for 7 years, if you mind your own business there it is generally fine. it has gone downhill in recent years though
Ha! I saw you in Stratford on Saturday night so I knew this content was coming. I’m 57 and love living in Newham.
Should of said hello 👋 😎
@@BackpackerBen I would’ve done, but I was on a bus and you weren’t :)
Ewww u should leave tht toilet
You're a good lad, ben.
London? Is that anywhere near India ?
Naaa Bangladesh
Apparently its near Rwanda
Those responsible for destruction are muslims of India, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran, Middle East, Bangladesh.
I don't think Christian, Hindu, Buddhist, Zoroastrian Indians or non muslim Persians, Jews are causing any sort of problems.
They are highly educated on average and have highest household incomes and most university degrees. They don't deal with drugs, seek human welfare or asylum or rape.
Moreover except for your communist, globalist prime minister who is an exception I don't think in general hindu and Christian migrants from India are causing any poverty, violence in England.
Actually India Today is one of the largest economic powers and currently the fastest growing economy in the world under the current leadership.
Today India is completely different from what it was in 1980 when the country was closed to the global investors and economy.
Check the statistics of United Nations Development Programme, World Bank, International Monetary Fund and Morgan and Stanley - they have clearly mentioned that currently only 14% of the population of India live below poverty line and in last decade 450 million Indians have been lifted out of absolute poverty. Moreover one more strong evidence is the rapidly growing middle class and the booming consumer market.
India Today has the fastest growing consumer market in the world the reason why numerous global brands have and are opening their business in India.
Even in the infrastructure case, there is a massive upgradation going on currently. You see the latest global news reports.
Boeing, Airbus have received their largest purchase orders which are also the largest in the entire history of aviation from Indian airline carrier groups like Air India, Indigo. The reason behind this, more and more number of Indians are travelling by air with more and more airports being built throughout India by the government because the domestic part of India's air transport is far larger than the international part.
Thirdly, India's recent upgradation of its railways with its new fleet of semi high speed trains like Vande Bharat and building of tunnels through mountains in Northwestern and Northeast Indian Himalayas and it's rapidly growing highway, expressway networks and bridges- the Atal sea link recently constructed connecting Mumbai to Pune over the Arabian Sea.
Lastly India recently have became successful in constructing an underwater metro railway.
Please there are many other countries far far worse than India.
You are anti India racist because you fail to understand that majority of those illegals who are bringing down your country are middle East/ African/ Pakistani folks and even if they are from India they are muslims.
Stop involving Buddhists, Christians, Hindus.

I am a realist and I honestly say China is already out of the third world status long back and India is rapidly transitioning into a second world country that is it's in the Goldilocks Phase in terms of economists.
The blame is to be put on muslims and not Asians like Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Nepalese, non muslim Indians who are hardworking and law abiding.
Hey Ben, you did not say anything about the ethnic replacement of the Cockneys
Why should he, the cockneys weren’t replaced, they left cos the racist a holes didn’t want to live near foreigners.
I LOVE IT whenever he calls the rail company 'scammers'. 😂
😅

Much like yourself I've travelled the world since I was 18 years old. When I travel to countries off the beaten path with a bit of a reputation and people tell me to be careful. I always reply. "I'll be alright. I grew up in Tower Hamlets"
🤣
£120 to go to London , If I was offered that to go there I still wouldn't, horrendous place. It's like a different country in some areas down there . Scary what it's become .
Lool u scared of non white faces how weird
fully expect a full video of you in Guyana....the ins and outs of the cities and country side...very dangerous. yet beautiful!
Lovely guys , like the West ham bit
120 quid?? For a 3 hour journey?? I paid 95€ for a round trip to Vienna from Udine (northern Italy), and that's a 6 hour journey both ways! 120£ is insane, man
You can get much cheaper online
In Sydney Australia pensioners can travel all day for $2.50 Australia which is about $1.70 USA dollars , for example a 300 kilometre trip and return 600 kilometres costs only $2.50 Australia which is a bargain compared to the train prices in the U.K
