Solo In Pakistan's Dodgiest Hood 🇵🇰

- 🇵🇰I have always wanted to travel to mysterious Kafiristan which is nestled in a couple of small valleys in the north of Pakistan. However to reach the northern mountains I would first need to pass through Balochistan, a region of the country that had been fought over for millennia but never quite conquered. In fact just the day before i arrived Iran bombed it. So let's just say, things didn't quite go as expected when I met the Pakistani military...Join me as we cruise the streets of Quetta.
Follow @SimonWilson12 and @BackpackerBen for their updates from Pakistan.
Edit: it seems Alexander the Great didn’t go through the Bolan Pass as I thought 😂 Ffs!

Bald please visit the international space station and see what the locals are like up there
he has to learn the local language first
😂😂
And see if there is any Soviet murals there
@@110776remco He already does. 😂

as a local from karachi pakistan even i wouldnt go to the places he went to, our govt advices us against it. this man has balls of steel.
I think people are just prejudiced against communities most of the time.
Yes, of steel and bald 😊
It's because he's a foreigner they have no issue with you. If he was from a another group they didn't like it would be different. It's like going into gang areas in America. It's dangerous but they'll typical leave you alone because you're not involved. @@Nomad454

I am a Pakistani, and i will think twice before visiting these areas in Karachi while holding a camera....You are brave and lucky enough. And this means people in there are friendly and kind to foreigner's.
It's sad that women can't be free
@@rupalibhojani1680that’s everywhere, not just there.
@@Smooshes786 not as much as any Muslim country tho
Bald wasn't there very long though in Orangi Town. Even he could feel that if he stayed longer he would have gotten in trouble with the locals.
Looking like Walter White also helped.
One of the most interesting videos for a long time. And ive been watching for several years now. Thank you for the experience.
Amazing how this man is able to connect with quite literally anyone
Confidence speaks itself.
All cultures respect fearless psychos.
you can too if you do it for long enough, bald has been traveling for decades; even before all the vlogs.
It easier if you're taller than most of the people in the street
That’s the Mi6 training for you, breeds confidence
the Taxi man was saying 'but you are my guest!.' He was a little embarrassed you were overpaying as he thought it was his duty to show you kindness

I love this guy's commentaries. "Dusty skies. Rubbish everywhere" saying it nonchalantly 😂
Exactly why I'm watching
So good. Love the little history lessons you throw in.
What Balds videos have taught me, is that when you approach people and situations with confidence and, most importantly an open heart, people are far better than our preconceptions let us believe.
Very true.
I experienced the same while travelling. Every country shittalks about some places they never visited. As much as danger exists, everywhere there are certain ethics all humans follow.
Agreed, and most people in the world are nice.
It’s interesting how he’s able to disarm people by being open and humorous towards them. Though i do wonder what happens in the parts he cuts out. Even in this video there’s some sudden time jumps where the mood has definitely changed and it seems a bad interaction may have happened that was edited out.
@@seantynan1 True, you hit the nail on the head.
This man makes the best vlogs on RUclips. He has real guts to do what he does. It is his charrisma that endears him to the most diverse people in the World. Brilliant, this is REAL travelling.
Best travel vlogger on youtube by thousands of miles.

Agree! So well said!👏
Amen to that brother, Amen.
Hey Bald, I have been watching your video for few days in a row. Top Drawer. Well done. Keep it up!
Can’t believe iv only just stumbled across your account!!! So happy. I’m binging all these videos in the next 2 days!!!
When I found the channel I did the same ❤
2 days.....?
Me too, maybe I used to watch random videos without knowing which channel
The robust disposition of Bald is remarkable, no matter where you put him or where he goes - a smile, a handshake, and bit of charm he'll provide.
Yeah didn’t like seeing simon wilson appear in the video and then boom. There you see him ruin it with his snoring
And most importantly he takes effort to learn languages. Many
He looks like a local.. doesn’t hurt
No
@@holden3253You must be joking, right?😊
I want to tell you guys a story. I got so inspired by Bald to travel the way he does and took an impromptu trip to Nepal and Bhutan last July. I went without booking a return ticket and traveled by land from Nepal to Bhutan via India. I spoke with many many folks on the way (this was never my way to travel previously) and I have some 20 new friends now!
I don't want to bore you with a long story, so I'll just mention the highlight of my trip. I met two guys - Nishchal and Bijay on a bus from Kathmandu and Pokhara. They are still very good friends and we keep pinging each other from time to time. I checked on them when there was an earthquake in Nepal, and they did the same when Chennai was flooded in December. I was in Pokhara for a week, and Nishchal would come every evening to my hotel to pick me up to show me new places or introduce me to more of his friends. Among the many people I met, I also learned about what they were doing in their lives, careers, etc., and connected unrelated people with each other based on their mutual interests. Bijay is an environmental engineer, and I introduced him to a guy whose mission is to keep the water bodies of Nepal safe (nobody pays him to do that, he samples the water quality and stuff on his own). I am reminded of that incident when Bald introduces Kolya to another lonely villager who lives nearby.
I think I've unlocked some inner superpower by suppressing that awkwardness while meeting and talking to new people. Even Nishchal and Bijay told me that although they've made the journey from Kathmandu to Pokhara countless times, they've never spoken to a stranger before. Thank you Bald, here's to a long, healthy, peaceful, and prosperous life mate 🍻
Beautiful story. Kudos to you.
That's amazing man! You have done what so many people want to do, yet so few overpower themselves and actually go 🎉
when you step outside into the unknown, all you will find is more of yourself. you are not just a human, your entire being has 2 parts, you and your higher self. Your higher self is extreamly good at syncronisation and timing. It can use this unknown window to fill your reality full of exciting events, highly advanced organsing princples beyond our imagination. So let me tell you know, your higher self is super happy that you took the leap of faith and im sure it wants you to continue, and hold positive beliefs about yourself and your environment. If you continue to be passionate then your higher self will continue to be exciting. Because that is what your excitement is.... your higher-selfs resonant frequency. Excitement is not an emotion, its spiritual resonanace. Hope you dont mind me sharing metaphysical principles with you. Unproven but when you apply it, its obviously true.
❤️❤️❤️❤️😘
The people make the experience. ❤
The fact you are so well versed in the history and the struggle of the people you introduce us to make these videos so enjoyable to watch. Nobody wants to watch an Instagram blonde go places and meet people when she totally ignorant to their life and struggles as much as they would want to watch you!
Absolutely brilliant Ben
Amazing work
👏👏👏
Love the videos

When Pakistan says it’s “open for tourism” I think they assumed that everyone understood that the border with Afghanistan was excluded…
Tourists don't go to unsafe border areas where militants and terrorists could kidnap or kill them. Pakistan is a large country with so much to offer in terms of sight seeing and culture. Ben should go to Punjab, Sindh, KPK, or Gilgit Baltistan regions that are safe to travel.
So tourist in america go to hoods for tourism?
Why risk life for the sake of content when you already know it's not safe to travel to the border. There are so many other places to visit in Pakistan. Good that the authorities sent them back to Karachi.
And Iran considering recent missile attacks by the Axis of evil
@@user-xu2hz1vy4qBald is no regular tourist. He goes where no normal tourist would ever go. Not even internenal tourists. I guess that is why he never comes here to Sweden. If he did I would show him the worst places.
The sense of duty that the Police and Security feel to keep you safe is amazing.
I mean, its probably more the government has a standing order to avoid embarrassment, but hopefully they feel like that.
@@shacklock01you are probably right, just like the taliban militants were “safeguarding” them😂
Well said @@shacklock01
Will they do the same for the uninjected?. 🤔
wanted to say that too like really nice they care about the tourists.
@26:40 Awesome, thanks for filming such a thing. Something this Texan will never see, but now does, thanks to you.
I cant believe it. You started every convo with aur bhai. Instantly breaking barriers. Idk where you learnt it but it is a fantastic trick.

Thanks Ben. A very interesting and informative introduction to Pakistan.
I appreciate you for undertaking great risk and hard work to create genuine content from which audience will have first hand information of different peoples and geography.
bald is the KING of this genre, the GOAT of travel & talk.
This guy is the g.o.a.t of talk and video. Good story reller
Him and Indigo Traveller are the best
Small brained american is the new up and comer in this niche hes great
Indeed and many try to do the same but aren’t as good or are just not getting the adventures like this just meeting girls etc
Hey bald parts of Pakistan you visited were next to border with afghanistan and iran as expected to be rough being border cities like detroit near canadian border or hamilton of canada.i am also surprise as to no visit or showing cities like lahore islamabad skardu hunza valley and only country in world with most 8000 plus meters high peaks and biggest glacier outside antartic region. No mughal history and how British colonialized and oppressed people of this region. This was not complete and actual picture of pakistan. Even this was Ben's third visit to Pakistan, he got so much love in pakistan and probably have dozens of videos showing the beauty and hospitality of this land. On the other hand communism seems to inspire you and what it did to the people during that time. World know about Stalins barbaric era. Before partition pakistan india being one country were very prosperous and wealthy however when British came over to trade but then backstabbed bringing military and colonized india. During more then 100 years under colonialism British seems to gutted this region by trillions of dollars in today's wealth. One more thing if you Google Dharavi in Mumbai india is the biggest slum of Asia. Also want to mention how British responsible of millions of death during partition by providing no security and backpacking entire resources before partition causing bloodshed and anarchy. Till this day Pakistan and india suffering over Kashmir, thanks to hard working British people who divided this country. Also want to mention that thanks to your country that whole world is dealing with issue of Hamas Palestine and Israel. Please do not glorify colonialism and communism.
My family along with 1.2 million Hindu Sindhis did the journey in the opposite direction in 1947,getting into the train from Quetta,shikarpur,Rohiri,Sukkur and other towns of Sindh to Karachi to take a boat from Karachi port to kandla port in Kutch and then onwards to various parts of India.
Bald doesn’t know how important this video is for so many Sindhis across the world who will never ever be able to physically see Sindh because of political reasons.This route had huge historical significance and Ofcourse a lot of sad stories of people suffering and losing their homeland and becoming refugees.
P.S being a Brit,Bald could be more proud and aware of British history.He keeps talking about going via “Sukkur “ . The Lansdowne Bridge over the Indus at Sukkur was one of the great engineering feats of the 19th century. The longest cantilever bridge ever built, it had to support the load of heavy steam locomotives. The bridge was inaugurated in 1889 and show’s British engineering genius even 150 years back- still standing-bald missed the opportunity to show it!
My own family for centuries and beyond were staying on the banks of Indus in Sukkur where this bridge was built.
I loved this comment. I wish you could visit your ancestral lands once again. Because these bonds are much stronger than we think or put to words. And they can't be severed easily because of moving to another place. There's a book called "from Quetta to Dehli" by Reena Nanda. It's a good read for someone who moved to India from Quetta during the partition.
Best regards from across the border.
Huge respect for you brother I appreciate All sindhi brothers remember there Land Sundhu love for my All Siindhi brothers Sain ❤️ must visit Sukkur 🙏🏻
Nice information. From Mumbai.
Wow man
Who asked
OMG 26:00 when the train was travelling through the tunnels... mixed feeling of beauty, wonder and sheer terror. What an emotional salad. Amazing video once again @baldandbankrupt
You are quite the man. You could just blend in anywhere but my favourite was Syria. Absolutely amazing!! I do enjoy your history lessons aswell, so knowledgeable and then there's Siiiiimon 😆
The look on Backpacker's face when Bald say's "this is worse than Afghanistan" is priceless. He looks terrified. Great video.

Bald is my favourite youtuber and let me tell you why..
1. This man has wide knowledge about the history of place and he knows how to explain it in details and emotions
2. He indulge himself in the place by speaking their language and over that he is good in making friends
3. He is not cocky and respect the culture of that place and knows the customs and cultures
No ads,no shorts just pure content
Perhaps get a hobby?
@@kevintheminion1497That was part of the point man, he didn’t need to go through Darien in order to reach Mexico. It is about the journey and documenting the roughest regions.
Wide knowledge hahaha - just because he knows a bit more than you doesn't mean he has "wide knowledge"
As to the language - he repeats the same words over and over - in Sindh they have their own language, and the same in Baluchistan and by his own admission he doesnt speak either; he knows some Hindi which is similar to Urdu
Of course he has ads. He wouldn’t be able to make these videos if he didn’t!
No ads On the videos?
another amazing tour, thanks very much for showing us and cheers from NZ
He steps literally 2m out of his Hotel and got a free city tour 🤣
Massive admiration to you dear Bald for treating everyone you meet with kindness and respect.
It'd be really easy to make a channel like this where he sensationalizes and puts down the places or the local people of the places he goes. Even subtly. But he never does.
literally 10 seconds in he called them hamas
@@MrAssassins4lifeand he is correct. Long live bald
Could have the airfare and just gone to Birmingham.
even ignoring that man's itch at 8:27 lol
Thank you for all the uploads over the years. I love the way you mix history lessons in with the content and your authentic & honest approach. (The only person I can watch who creates long videos like this without ever getting bored)
Lmao, the most randomest comment. Who would’ve thought you were a fan of Bald 😂 🫡 you should check out his mate Timmy Karter if you rockin with Bald as well. Their La Bestia video was top 🔥

I love how aggressive he is with his "hellos" and then keeps it moving 😂😂 Throws the locals off and makes them think what the hell just happened.😂
😂😂😂 it's true
its amazing how relaxed he is even in a completely different part of the world.
It's a side reaction of fear, don't be naive mate.
Bcoz he has a camera in front of him to record his every action & gesture.& .he knows that would be broadcasted & not edited out
That's actually one way to not be a target. You need to be calm, confident and not look weak to avoid being a target.
@@BrianCarlo2023 I was talking about something else mate.

Great show man. History trivia included in that greatness 👍
That young military troop was so friendly, I just hope he stays safe

No doubt. Definitely can be a dangerous place but he's been to other places in the region like Kashmir and Afghanistan before and was fine.

@@theweakestlink2278 Kashmir isn't too bad. He's risking his life in Balochistan, though. These guys think they're bulletproof.
I was surprised to see transgenders at 14:10. Its crazy they had to build a flyover to stop locals from killing each other, Pakistan government needs to supply rubbish removal so people dont dump trash in the streets and rivers..
05:55 i laughed so hard at “wow you got a deep voice for a young boy”

Real vlogger..always presenting raw and natural contents
As a Karachiite, even i haven't been to the slums. Karachi is big - there's the "posh" regions and then the slums, like a completely different place.

Riding along on that man’s motorbike and saying hello to all the other folks on bikes riding past was so cool. Everyone just seemed to want to say hi to the weird bald white guy!
I quite like the never ending kindness that Bald seems to encounter along his journeys. Is it because he’s always so casual and friendly with everyone he meets? Is it because the vast majority of humans are actually friendly and nice? Who can say. But I hope that you continue to travel and meet nice people.
The fact that he speaks their local language makes people kind to him I guess
The majority of humans are friendly, especially to visitors.
Its not just because bald is nice, makes effort with language. People are kind to the likes of backpacker ben & even prats like, me!
Travel with a smile & the world will befriend you & buy you coffee. FAST!
Bald riding past a military checkpoint: "wheheeey!"😂
The people of Pakistan are some of the most friendly people you'll meet. It's not a coincidence that out of all of his vlogs, the people in this vlog were some of the friendliest we have seen.

Because that town come under army cantonment. Army areas are organized.
I like how Pakistan has unique & colorful vehicles. 🤩
Wtf are you smoking 😂 Afghanistan barely has roads literally infrastructure, population, country size education is all in favor of Pakistan that’s why they are almost as many Afghans in Pak then in entire Afghanistan
Excellent episode wow, perfect explanation past and present situation in Pakistan....
Oh lord isn't it lovely.... beautiful in fact to see human beings being nice to each other and showing each other respect.
Yeah, can you imagine the smell though , this guy bald has travelled the globe several times , his stomach would have adapted to the not so sanitary food and the strange untreated water that the food is cooked in would be a shock to the system of a first timer , they even have a great name for it "deli belly"

@@stanvanillo9831You have now! 🎉❤
India and Pakistan speak pretty much the same language. Hindi and urdu just differ in writing system

It makes a huge difference in the reception that you get. It’s a mark of respect to take the trouble to interact personally. I have no facility with language, unlike Benjamin but I will try a few words if I can.
Fascinating seeing how they build all of that in ways that look chaotic and at the same time ordered in a chaotic way. Love to see the world like this but I must admit to not having bravery as you have. Still it's clear that there is so many good people and super friendly and the bad things that affect us in the west also affect them all as well.

I admire the care taken with your safety by the authorities. It’s commendable if frustrating for you. The friendliness of the locals in the towns is striking.
The police weren't there to protect them but to have an eye on them. They aren't police but their undercover intelligence agents. You might need to google how their intelligence agents hide in the sheeps dress. Pakistan is not the place you want to visit ever.

I’d be so untrusting and weary of people in some of these places , but you’ve just got a way about you that makes friends with everyone, absolutely brilliant!
Honestly 95% of people are just out there trying to live, work and take care of their families. We have more in common than not
Most of the sellers in public places might try to scam you cause they meet foreigners everyday and aren't much interested in hospitality. Whereas regular citizens are more welcoming and keen on showing their culture and food.

Please Ben…never stop…your videos have been my comfort zone in hard times. Wish you all the best ! Love from Greece .
Excellent journey again, thoroughly enjoyable.
Thank you so much for taking me on this journey with you. I most likely will never travel. I really enjoyed this trip . Might be one of my favorites after all the years I watched and enjoyed your videos
You are the best at this. Best guide.
Love you my friend from this Canadian babushka 😊
"you're following me on your bicycle"
"yes sir🗿"
Lol

😂😂😂😂 the conviction he said it with, was funny
Well. I don't blame him. Following Bald arround is probably a good way to have some fun. 😁
...that dude was the 'criminal intelligence agency' . They keep a low profile. lol
I made this journey (albeit in the opposite direction starting from Quetta) literally 25 years ago and it's amazing that nothing appears to have changed at all. Still rugged as hell, still amazing.
i feel they don’t even comprehend the concept of progress in these places.
Living there must make you feel like Karma Debt being repaid.@@vagtsal
@@vagtsal the only progress they might have is abundance of smartphones and internet
Bcz Pakistani Army corrupt Generals don't want to progress Pakistan they are busy to buying properties in west.
It might have even been safer then.
Dude. You´re completely out of your mind and I fuc*ing love it :D
😂😂😂
Love your videos big supporter.
Like your content which is interesting and somewhat informative.
Bit of feedback and a minor niggle it would be nice if you could show a graphic of the maps amd routes occasionally.
Thanx Ben for taking us along with you on your amazing adventures
The pretend run-into thing still makes me laugh every time lol
you are so engaged with the video that it comes as a genuine surprise for us the viewers too LOL
and I'm still surprised every time XD it's perfect
You've really upped your game the past few years!
Sad you didn't make it to the north. I made a trip with the motorcycle a few years ago and spent 1 month there. Once you've made it to the northern highlands the landscape turns into a stunning scenario of green valleys and the biggest mountains.
In winter, it's really cold here in the north

Ben is so absurdly well travelled it would be impossible for these conmen to take him for another 10 cents.
That, or it just takes one to know one😂
😅😂....who ever smell't it dealt it!....😂😅
@@dazztee Never asked me for money, but has put out some of the greatest travel videos in youtube history. I don't feel conned.
@Yimello 😵what!!!!....everytime I click on on of his vids it directs me to a page where I have to promise to owe him one B.J redeemable on demand to watch it....🤣😅
