The World's Most Dangerous Journey - Part 1

- The World's Most Dangerous Journey: Lawless and uncharted, the Darien Gap is the world's most dangerous migrant trail. Refugees must face treacherous waters, unrelenting jungle, bandits and guerrillas on their journey from Colombia to the USA. A report by SBS Dateline. WATCH PART 2 HERE: • The World's Most Dange...
"We've had no food for four days and only river water to drink. We've had so much trouble, we haven't slept for eleven days", cries a desperate Bangladeshi refugee. The jungle is merciless and cruel. These refugees have fled political persecution in Nepal and Bangladesh. "In Bangladesh they cut us. Here, and here, they chopped us here, they chopped us and we had to leave. That's why we had to come to the jungle". Having landed in Brazil a month before, the refugees have travelled overland through Bolivia, Peru and Ecuador, to Colombia. Most refugees stop off at the village of Bijao, the gateway to the most dangerous part of the Darien Gap. A migrant trafficking economy had opened up. Locals sell supplies to the travellers and guide them from there to the border with Panama. It's a risky business, but brings much needed capital into the community, which lacks schools and healthcare. Here, people die from treatable diseases such as malaria. Panama has now closed its border to all migrants, but undoubtedly a new gap will be found and the flow will continue.

My friend just made this journey from Venezuela to the US. I asked him a ton of questions about the journey, but he is so nonchalant, I knew it’s dangerous, but not to this extent. Thank you for documenting this!
How is your friend? Would your friend be willing to relive his experience on camera? We're currently on year 2 of a massive in-depth documentary in an attempt to cross party lines, to do away with partisan tribalism, and grant a safer passage to their American dream. Their dream shouldn't be a road paved through hell. How nice would it be to fly over this gap? Wouldn't that be great? Please let me know about your friend. You can email me through my RUclips channel under the "ABOUT" tab. If not, that's okay too, and I wish your friend all the success and freedoms they deserve. And a warm, heartfelt, Welcome to America.
men lie. numbers dont. your friend pretended and you're his only friends.
There r some canibals existing
@@1NationMediaUS I know one of the person in this video . I came across him while being detain in ice homeland security in New Jersey ! Unfortunately the person was deported back to Gambia 😢
My grandmother is a Colombian immigrant I'm the first born generation in the US she came through the desert in Mexico through mexicali she got stung by a scorpion on her way and didn't die she's a real trooper
Thank goodness for groups like Journeyman Pictures, for bringing so much humanity - with all the highs and lows that exist within it - to the eyes and consciousness of the general public.
One of the first to report on this--thank you for sharing up the depth, despair and dangers of the Darien. I pray for those that are making this journey on the daily.
Incredible story, thank you so much for this help that you have given to this people. May God give you back.
Good documentary, been looking for something interesting. And maybe show my school this
im from panama, And i would never walk thru thst place.. bless there souls Lord.
Thank you
the population there is of course panamanians, but its our Native people, there called kuna yala. you can youtube them. anyhow these poeple dont live modern like we do. its survial status to them too. and thats a cartel route as well. thats the true Valley of Death. i have a few friends in Panama that would tell me storys of them working for cartels to bring cocaine into panama from colombia. its Active right there. . Pablo Escobar and Manuel Noriega routes are contoled by Mexican Cartels now.
Good job bro,its cool that you're keeping us informed on the extraordinary challenges migrants face on their way to seek greener pastures.
great segment, thanks.
This is an award winning documentary, you inspired by their journey.
Great doc!
I watch these documentaries & I truly realise how fortunate I am. But what always amazes me, why these people leave their beautiful families & friends & put their life's in such danger? Obviously it's for us to watch these videos & enlighten us with knowledge! And I thank them for this, but I'd rather them be safe at home!!!
This dude really helped them a lot.
Great docs plus awesome narrater ! Wants more of like this plz !!
Thank you so much

Glad I live in New Zealand if I'm honest
I always felt this way about Oregon until early september when we choked on smoke for a week
Me too man, i love little New Zealand
Isn't the mongrel gang from new Zealand and dangerous as hell and causing chaos all over there
I wish I lived in New Zealand. America is beautiful but half the people are violent crazy racists who are obsessed with guns.
Aoatearoa is my home 🏡
YOU GUYS DID YOUR RESEARCH VERY WELL,GOOOOD JOB ON THIS 1 .......SHARE . THIS GUYS
those are some beautiful kids great vlog
In reading between the lines here. His Colombian colleague seems to have a lot of clout. I'm sure a lot of money was paid under the table so they can do this documentary. I can tell by the way he was so confident in saying they're not gonna stop. He probably has connects with both the smugglers and the military.
may god bless all my brothers from cameroon
Fuck Cameroon . Stay out of the USA.
💙
interesting and moving
dang that was great, where's the rest of it?
Ray Cyst
That last part was heavy to see... Never could I imagine the things they are telling me as a viewer, safe watching from a comfy home in the Netherlands. I wish I could do something for them.
it seems cool being the narrator cuz he got a cool job and lives in sanfro and gots a chill vocal delivery too
May God bless you
wowwwwwwwwwww what a great video well done
Burst with tears ...
YES.that is a real situation the most people live this world now
Man laying here in my comfy bed with the heater on living in California USA and I can only lay here and feel sad for them migrants with no food. But I feel blessed to be able to get up and walk to my fridge anytime I want when I'm hungry. GODBLESS THEM. Prayers sent for all them
“You got 10 mins to live; here’s your shovel” 😂😂😂 damn
Seeing stuff like this makes me glad I was born in the USA everything maybe expensive but we have it better then majority of countries
Dude this gap is about the size of Rhode Island
*@Jose Maciel Leon* Sure dude , believe the propaganda . Apart from being a two(one?) party state where "Our Fine Military" is allowed to grab the biggest percentage of the people's treasury since the coup of '63 , the U.S. is great nation, which never has been out of wars since ....All with god's help ofcourse....
HAHA yup you tell yourself that haha typical american thing to say...
Jose Maciel Leon
Stolen through the Rothschilds Central banking system and debt slavery
I agree from india
oh good I hate to see Men cry . 😟😯 Thats how you know the situación must be HELL for them.
That cry was fake as fuck. He was looking for sympathy trying to gain food and water.
@@hardcorehunter9155 Easy for keyboard warrior internet lard ass to say from the comfort of your parent's basement.
@@hardcorehunter9155 Idiot
@M.H. The remark sad nothing about it finding worse to see a man cry than compared to a woman.
If I see an elephant getting slaughtered for it's ivory and i remark that I hate seeing that than it noway claims that it is worse than for example the hunting of whales.
Thus i suspect that you are one of these radical feminists who hates it that there is any kind of sympathy for a man and will soon rush to the scene and change the topic and make it about women (even though that scene didn't even include a female).
That makes you a hypocrite because i means that you do feel more empathy for women than men which would be the exact same mistake of what you wrongly accuse Shontavia.
Feminism (in it's current form) is cancer.
Courage. The life's calling.
God help my friend and his family..
I think this is a good documentary, BUT as someone who has been in the Darien several times and currently lives in Colombia..I just find it a bit annoying that he never mentions who exactly makes up the overwhelming majority of the migrants in this area..Cubans who freely fly to Venezuela and track down the colombian coast and on into panama through the Darien. I am sure there are Somalians and Nigerians etc etc..but it just seems as though he's trying to make it more of a world immigration route rather than what it actually is..and that's a major route for Cubans and Venezuelans fleeing. I'm not a journalist and nor do I aspire to be and not taking away from this topic because it is a serious issue, but just up the colombian coast in the Guajira region where babies and kids are severely malnourished and dying of drought and hunger, and endure racism (the guajira is indigenous occupied land here in Colombia and the government does NOTHING for these people) your camera and words could have been better served there....that's just my opinion and I encourage you, if you actually read the comments on your vids, to take another trip to colombia and try to spread the word of what's going on!
Shut up you haven't been in the darien
Sensei Dekkers Give me proof well supported by real evidence. If you can't then you're basically trying to be some asshat weeb.
Around The World With Chiles! Thank you! Excellent points.
The world is big, even in your country there are many stories to cover. Not everything can be covered at once, especially in a documentary.
Don't forget who paid for this documentary, and what point they are trying to make. It broke my heart to see people who left their homes to follow a lie. I'm an amerkan and I was married to an undocumented Mexican and he got nothing but abuse from all of his employers because he had no rights. The dream of the US is a nightmare for many, and it's not much of a dream for those of us born here anymore, either, since we got sold out to Chinese slave labor years ago and lost all the manufacturing. Now it's just a house of cards in debt and ready to fall. All I can say to any migrant, don't go! Stay home! Your food is better, anyway. All the food in the US is gmo fake and will give you cancer. The dream is a nightmare. I want to take this journey going the other way and hang out in those villages. I'm done with MacDonalds and smart meters!
Question: How do people get from Bangladesh and Nepal to South America? Surely even for them to Jouney to Japan, Russsia or Canada is easier?
Still humans them all are,, never mind the lot of them , im from the UK and im lucky for being hear , yes how fortuity you are to have a good life , if them live in peace and good people not abusers of life let them have a good life if gods will god be with the better of man kind
I just cry, my throat come off, speechless. Thanks Mr. Jason Motlagh for present such an inhuman history of human. It's a lesson for the migrants intending to follow this route. In fact, Bangladesh is not in such a distressed position, economically or politically, that forces its people to follow such dangerous path. Greediness of some people and handcuffs of the dream country drive or motivate them leading this way.
The bravery of these youths who face the full on possability of death to reach the land of big bellys and big bullys is awesome> Great doc thanks
fresh meat for my fields , cant wait till they get here
I went through the darien gap about 3 months ago. Unlike those in this video, we didn't have guides. We just walked and relied on left o er from others to guide our path. We couldn't cook either and didn't have food at all. Nonetheless, we made it out of the jungle in 4 days. Thus forest is no joke. If you see anyone who has made it through, respect that person. It doesn't matter what kind of migrant they are. To risk your life for the sake of a better life is the true test of human endeavour and this jungle will make you question everything you knew. It will stretch you beyond your limits. Others have survive and others died. We passed a corpse upstream and while downstream, we got so thirsty and yet you know there is corpse upstream which is close to the river you are to drink from. You've seen parts of this corpse being washed into the river and yet you have no choice but to drink this water or else you die. What do you do? These are just few of the dilemmas we encounter in this forest. By the way, I drank the water and carried extra for réserve. Imagine what goes through our mind knowing you've probably consume someone who has been dead for days. I really wish people will have a different opinion of migrant because these are people who have endured the true test of human resilience.
Or they walked from point a to point b.
Migrants fleeing squalor they’ve created and bringing it with them? The US has enough problems. We don’t need everybody around the world bring their own problems here too.
Man am a 18years old girl as am speaking now I was released from the prison I come through Tijuana but my journey started from Argentina to america I crossed 12 countries. The most painful thing for me is that l lost 2 of my friends in the jungle 1 had heart-attack & 1 was bitten by snake ain't forgiving myself for not helping them..... U know what for myself I never ever even thought am gonna make out that jungle it's literally the deadliest place I
It left me trauma am affected by it mentally and physically....it's 200% that you will die yet we did our best to survive there hats off to all of us we all have our own reason to why we come there.
@@sammim2466 i hope you reached USA
Wish you the best girl
Just heard Mahlathini and Mahotela queens song in that "Tarven". thats a South African song, wonder if they understood the lyrics or they were just enjoying the music
Is that suahili? They don't understand a word, believe me. But they clearly enjoy the music. 😃
@@ErikaM683 its IsiZulu
Seeing this makes my heart hurt. As an America I wish the absolute best for these people. Wish I could help in anyway
Help build the wall so these shady retarded ass holes who NEVER PRACTICE SAFE SEX
or birth control....STOP coming here and overpopulating and ZOOING out our home!
Gangs MURDER RATES drugs.....oh and some SLAVE wage labor unskilled bullshit...
is all we get
Then RIOT George Floyd-style EVERY TIME your government proposes to invade/regime change foreign countries whose governments are not obedient to Washington's wishes! And DEMAND the government to bring ALL TROOPS HOME without any exception!
cool that the reporter guy helped that first group of people traveling. i really think thats is awesome. to just talk with them and spend tome and give them food a spot to rest is really very cool.
Thank you brother for help these bangladeshi boys and others.
Ohhh my God I pass through this way
Man, im not sure what that village getd out of helping migrants but it really is an oasis in the desert or some jungle equivalent. These people were starving on their last few days of life and as this film is ending they seem to be alive again. I know they aren't done yet but this is exactly what they needed to boost moral. I sure hope they made it and more checkpoints like this are available.
You must have balls of steel to go through this journey.
I think that showing their faces in this documentary will not help them if the're going to the US though.
NO...ball of stupid....
LIGO
Stupid? How? They’re obviously making the tough journey to the US to seek a better life than what they currently have. I bet if you grew up in extreme poverty, you would do anything to go somewhere else where you can live a better life. But since you’re completely clueless, you call it “stupid”. Fucking idiot..
lelupus no greed
We need those guys in USA, thanks
Beautiful picture of you and your parents, God bless you
Colombia is not producing the most cocaine. That prize currently goes to Peru.
My Gosh man... EXCELLENT JOB ! This deserves a Nobel and a few other awards.
People most often legally cross (or go around) the Darién gap
by going from Turbo, Colombia to a town near the border like
Capurganá, Colombia (often in by boat), and then taking a
short walk to La Miel, Panama.
Pray 🙏🏼
I am shocked to know from my country Nepal people also use this way.

Gerat video. Your voice sounds kind of like Christian Bale.
As a Bangladeshi, I really feel sorry for them. But trust me, there are plenty of opportunities here in Bangladesh to make money. According to the IMF, Bangladesh's economy is the second fastest growing major economy of 2016. But the sad part is still people believe in the American Dream and willingly risking their lives to go to USA. And most importantly they choose the wrong path to move to USA and ignoring all the legal ways. I have been to USA twice and every year thousands of people from Bangladesh go to USA legally. I feel very sad after watching this and I believe this is not their fault as they were manipulated by some human trafficking agencies. Hopefully they will come back to Bangladesh safely. And thanks Journeyman Pictures for this documentary. We will use this documentary to create awareness in our country.
Brian Waller shut up moron
No one wants to go to shitty ass Bangladesh. If you're in Bangladesh right now, please stop shitting and pissing in your own food and water and come to the United States!
khalid hossain haha u are stupid or naive ,im spoken with people of different races who are anywhere legally and cant bealive what dping other people from the same country to be the same place. Well is easy to say has opportunities in bangladesh when u are born rich and can invest right? Secondly exactly the middle class and poor people never can enter america or europe unless they are students or serious workers to company and they even this time will be no accepted in every university ,in east europe is 100 percent ,we take all,but when u finish to study what haha u must marry before this right
nah thanks i would never go to INDIA ever i dont wanna be crowd raped and burned alive or step on someone's poop with my slipper
Agreed. Nowdays Manpower Recruiting agencies finding it hard to run their business in Bangladesh as the local businesses are booming. And whoever pissing over Bangladesh should know, Bangladesh has less inequality and much more stability in social life and security. People here are strong, adaptive, tolerant to poverty and very simple -life lover. That is the most crucial of any socio economic developments.
Fascinating! No worse thou than going to Africa for gold in the jungle.
I made it here. Sure am glad i live here now.
@Joshua Hanson came legally never got citizenship
I use to live next to neighbors who blasted those music for days at a time.. I guess it's their culture.
I want to go to the Darien.
14:22 what is this music. Ive heard it before?
I don't give a fk if they break law or not. They should have proper lives to live on. I hope they are still with us in this planet.
Very captivating but disappointed that the documentary ended without us knowing the fate of these immigrants. It's like watching a movie which ends in suspense and no sequel
Yeah, what might be they doing now, that would be great to watch, nah?
How do they get to South America in the first place?
Unbelievable....
لي جا من عند زيزو فلوكس يبان هناا ؟
الله يكون معاه انشاءالله ويوصل بخير والله راني خايف عليه طريق صعيبة 😪
"No crew has made it through the gap before"
I beg to differ, do a search there are several videos of crews traversing the gap.
" to our knowledge"
@@ansonwilson8406 really no excuse for making false claims today though. You're one google search away from everything :)
No excuse for false claims they could said only the 15th it would have been cool still if true. Straight up lying is sus
For you Europeans watching, Central America is like our Mediterranean Sea of refugee crossings.
Europeans know lots of shit and most of them aware of the situation in south and central america, unlike average murican white kids..
not europeans Greeks you may say, the problem is here in Greece,
white people speak with each orther LOL
😁😂😂😂
@@erzya577 us American white kids know about the immigration crisis in Europe..the difference is that you want these people.
Little do they know that American tolerance and compassion on Migration or Muslim refugees has radically changed and the prevalent outcome is likely to be deportation .
This reporter does not seem to mind illegal migration when you consider his personal family's background .
great documentary. sadly enough there are a lot of haters among you folks.
I'm stuck right on the fence here. On one side I see that the US can't take all these people, but I feel really bad for them their life must be so bad to risk the terrible journey. I'm from the UK and we have a similar situation. The problem is that people see our countries as the land of milk and honey. We need to let them know that it's not that easy
Colin Doherty is
Yup. People need to wake up to the fact that this isnt 1804 with endless resources for free & we need a emigrant horde to claim the territory before another world power does.
This is no longer a prosperous nation, better than most but people need to stay in their country of birth & fight to make it a safe & economically prosperous nation. That will also address most of the environmental issues globally as well.
Come to the US for an education, than go home & use the knowledge to raise the standard of living for your country.
Corruption at all levels from the small to the great & no birth control, not lack of resources is what keeps most of these countries poor & dangerous.
Yeah, I agree completly. Greetings from Germany!
Colin Doherty - And not only is it not any easier (or much easier) than it was a century ago, but our governments have gone rogue and psychopathic (corrupt) to the Zionist central bankers and criminal politics/policies. This illegal immigration is forced on nations intentionally by the International Bankers, to divide and conquer, and cause societal decline and decay in Western Nations, as well to destroy the ethnic, cultural, and moral fiber/cohesion by diluting nations (ethnically, religiously, culturally, racially) with poor immigrants and refugees. There are institutions funded by George Soros and others working to destroy and destabilize America and other western nations. Unfortunately if these people don't have internet access, and don't speak and understand English, then they wouldn't know it. In the last decade, about 20% of the people who came here, left to return to their home countries (especially after the recession).
@@pvtimberfaller How can people stay and fight? For example if you are Yemini citizen, you are up against a Saudi government that is destroying his country with weapons supplied by UK and US.
All I can say is, you have balls going there! That’s all! I’m hoping for your safety anywhere you plan to go!
This breaks my heart...that people leave their good homes and family to chase a lie.
Sir please you know the more information about this refugess .
I am from bangladesh
damn! they traveled half way across the world,they could have gone to a developed nation closer to them, thats one hell of a journey to get to the US.
It’s amazing that everyone seeks to come to the US. No other country along the route will do?
they are all what?
LATINO Countries....
and?
What does that mean? CORRUPT and SHADY as fuck......JUST like the people themselves...
WE ARE SICK OF THEM INFESTING OUR COMMUNITIES and lowering our standards and
destroying the environment in places like California
RUINED by latino dregs and loser scumbags who flee their homes instead of fixing them
@@fucketaboutit
Lmao over here acting like the US government isn’t corrupt. The debt in this country is a joke
What in the hell. I can't believe what I've just seen. I don't even know what to say. America must truly be the greatest nation on earth.
these idiots need to FIX their countries instead of running from them like cowards and failures
It's not the greatest country, because these low IQ shithead's keep coming here with there problems, turning the US into the places they fled from.
Many come for money not because of war.
holy shit his mate is wrecked on coke when they first meet. dudes flying!
Roblowni hahahahahahaha no doubt
Welcome to South America. Hahah
the music that was in that jungle is of South African origin
A lot of Africans were brought to South America between the 15th and 18th century.
Nice to know. Thanks. Is that suahili?
I want a job SBS through any "turf".
why would refugees from africa and asia go to the USA via. central america?
it makes more sense for them to just go directly to america
U need a visa for the usa

Thank you for cutting the documentary down in a crucial point of time good job keep it up maybe you'll get more subscribers !!!
What’s up with all these negativity just put yourself in there shoes what would you have done. They all have there own reason to immigrate but don’t just insult them and call them worthless.
Part two?

It’s there
Why is it always only men? No women, families? It's odd. I understand why people feel it's more nefarious when it's war age men coming. Why aren't the women fleeing with them? God help them.
They do come with in lessor numbers. But it's easier for guys to travel alone, no risk of rap3, more physical endurance, less threat of animal attack. Women normally come after men have established a residence and line of income.
In 1774 a small group of farmers and laborers stood up against the Greatest power and military on earth at the time and WON freedom. Of these people stayed in their own countries and stood up and fought instead of running just imagine what they could have.. easier to run I guess and reap the labors of others..
Whats the song playing at 10:38
I already go through this experience in 2014 really it's dangerous I saw death in front of my eyes
