great job Matt,Los Angeles does not look so good, you must walk taking cares, because you don´t know where a problem is. Dirty streets and strange people, some places are like Buenos Aires city. a Big hug and greetings from Argentina my friend
Hi Matt. OMG ! You went to SKID ROW ! I've been to LA many times and even lived there for a while, but I've never been near Skid Row. Very brave, Matt. I'm glad you came back safely 🤣 Thanks for sharing. Stay safe and nice travel !
@@no_soy_rubio When I was in high school, I lived in a suburb of LA for about a month and a half. It was a very peaceful area and the weather was nice season, so it was comfortable 😊👌Since I grew up, I have visited several times for work and travel. There are some areas in downtown that are unsafe 🤔 Are you going to Mexico after LA ? Enjoy your travel !
That`s a rough corner of the world, I really admire your courage, there are just places I`d not like to be found, that`s not to say we do not have rough corners here, we do but they look like churches compared. The whole place could pass for an abandoned city apart from the traffic and the people. I wonder how the government can accept/tolerate places like Skidrow/tenderloin and the rest, it`s wrong in every way to let people live in such conditions. Please stay safe while there, everything looks scary
That made me a bit nervous Matt. Not sure I’d want to go there mate. Still enjoying your journey but I’m more looking forward to your Mexico videos. Stay safe living the dream lad. 😎🙏🙌👍🖖🤪🍺
Wow! Very interesting and impressive! As always, you're sharing this impressive video! Enjoyed it to the end! Hello! Greetings again from 100tour KOREA! Stay in touch, myd ear friend! See you! Have a beautiful day!
LA feels a lot more rundown than I thought it would be, not quite the glitz and glamour Hollywood makes it out to be. You're a brave man doing Skid Row solo, had no idea beat it was filmed over there! Need to rewatch it 😂
Man, you are out looking for fight scenes 😂 looks chaotic, but I guess I may have seen worse. Probably a different experience at night 🤔 I would probably not wave around a camera and film myself out in the open though. 😅 keep safe dude, interesting share as usual!
Ah man, mixed emotions when the fight was kicking off. Part of me was like 'I hope it doesn't go bad here', another part was 'this will make great content' 🫣😆
Lols mate, nope you survived. I was nervous for you. L.A. looks like Johannesburg.. It's great to see security guards around those areas though. 🙏🙏Safe travels always friend. Have a good one.💖❇
Wow, fascinating stroll in an area I would not have the bravery to visit. It was interesting seeing the theatres repurposed into stores, but glad they kept the storefronts. That vehicle had some good camouflage going on! It was fascinating and depressing seeing the tents set up right on the sidewalk, and hearing the history and demographics of the area.
Some of the street corners in Skid Row remind of some film sets. There was a series a few year back which name escapes me but there was plenty of drug dealing. I'm daft enough to walk thro those kinds of places without realising it. However the run down nature of the place would keep me on my toes. Then again I lived in Liverpool in a dodgy area for a year or 2 back in my Uni days. I went to pubs were people were known to get shot! Glad you survived anyway 🙂
The Wire maybe? It's pretty easy to stumble on Skid Row tbf as it is right next to the Downtown area. Yeah my mate lived in a rough area in Liverpool when he was at uni there, used to enjoy visiting though, the people were very friendly!
@@no_soy_rubio yeah that was the one, The Wire but then realised that was meant to be Baltimore. Then again it sure looked like some of the film sets. And yeah saw more fighting and trouble in my home town than I ever did in Liverpool
It looks well dodgy... but it's really fascinating to see Skid Row 'close up' like this. There's a tension which your vid captures very effectively. You're very intrepid, Matt. Take care 👍
Great video Matt, editing getting so good, my dad went to West Hollywood/ broadway a few years ago, said it was the biggest sh#thole he’s ever been to!
The thing is, it's not like UK cities, where the shopping is in one place. Its spread out. Down Town LA has nearly always been rough , people go there for work and thats it. Silver lake, echo park etc is where its at
@@no_soy_rubio it’s true but it’s way more of a walking city that people give it credit for . I lived in Echo park and would walk from there to the end of Silver Lake , silver lake is their Brighton but with better teeth and more shower products
@@UnionJackies-TheBritishWay yeah I've walked all over the city. Got a few videos on here from walking in Hollywood, Santa Monica, Chinatown, Pasadena etc. Even took a walk through South LA on my own once (didn't film that one 😅)
I take the minimum amount of stuff with me, the rest is locked up in my accommodation. If I'm wild camping I'll try and leave most of my stuff in accommodation (usually with a room reserved either side of the camp), or a storage locker (they only have these in bigger cities) and take what I need. When I go to places like Skid Row I don't take my watch or even my cheap-arse bracelets 😆
Great walk Matt did look pants reminded me of Digbeth in Birmingham 😢 But in fairness all city’s and town all over the world have good and bad as you said mate I’d of bailed in the dark too !!! Take care amigo 🙏🏼 Simon 🤠👍
Signor Matt, Sarò via per le riprese fino a questo fine settimana. Farò del mio meglio per recuperare il ritardo una volta tornato. Spero che tu possa goderti una nuova vita ovunque tu sia....
Oh mate, sky-high rents, homelessness and fentanyl are decimating some US cities. Your vids show off your filming skills, can't wait for Mexico. We're not worthy! 🤩
Skid row covers 50 blocks? I had no idea. That seems like a lot. Remember, all the bad guys have guns in LA. That used to be my favorite city at one time. 👍
I would say even worse mate, at least the rough parts of SF you can find some help quickly if things go south...get lost in Skid Row and you're in trouble
It’s not a sign of a healthy society. To have such extremes. Of course there has always been homelessness but not to the extent we are seeing nowadays.
That graffiti'd building was originally conceived by CCP moguls, in a way this was subtly patriotic transforming trash into art. I wish I could've bumped into you while you were here to give you a tour of the wreckage.
Why can’t the Latinos buy up our boarded places? 🧐 that would be preferable.they graffiti everything there dont they? Very distinctive LA street sounds. That’s an insane number of homeless. Lots of rubbish littering up the streets too. Great place to visit, you picked the right time, bet it gets a bit cray cray at night.
Haha let's import some Latinos to sunny UK to brighten up our high street 😎 yeah some of the graffiti is pretty good tbf, I quite like to see it, better than just constant concrete. Definitely wasn't hanging around after dark 😬
@@no_soy_rubio the Latinos would make a very welcome and refreshing change from the Eastern European freeloaders. In other news I’m returning to Spain! Yay.
Hello from your friends in Naples, Florida. Holy cow, what a mess. Thanks for sharing the amazing views with us, have a great week 👍 💯 ❤
Holy cow indeed! Thank you!
I’ve never clicked on one of your videos so fast 🔥
Haha thanks man
Great sharing dear friend,
Really enjoyed watching
Keep up the good work
Stay blessed and connected 🌺🌺
I really enjoyed this video. Please be careful and stay safe my friend
Thank you 😁
Disturbing...😢
Keep up the good work

Thanks Sergio, I will avoid those places in Buenos Aires unless you come with me as my bodyguard 😆
@@no_soy_rubio no problem. We will be two against world fighting with fists.🤣🤣🤣
@sergioelcoyote3586 I am Rooney you are Tevez, vamos 💪👊👊
It definitely looks scarier than parts of Manila, or, as you said, San Salvador...
I agree, scary place, unpredictable people with severe mental health issues

@no_soy_rubio have you ever been to Kenzo (kensington) part of Philly? How would you compare the two?
Hard to even imagine that one would have no choice but to live in this manner. So wish that much more could be done.

Yes it's a very strange and harsh world there, amazing how a place with so much money can allow people to live in such conditions!
I'm just so grateful you survived. Goodness gracious.
Haha thank you!
Keep on keeping on bro ❤
Thanks bro and happy birthday once again 🍻
Wowsers. A country of so many contrasts. But like you say, all cities have their good and not so good sides. Please stay safe there, man 😊
I'll try 🙏 😅
That made me a bit nervous Matt. Not sure I’d want to go there mate. Still enjoying your journey but I’m more looking forward to your Mexico videos.
Stay safe living the dream lad. 😎🙏🙌👍🖖🤪🍺
Thanks mate, only a couple more small US vids and then it's lots and lots of Mexico 😁
You're brave my friend! Glad you're doing alright out there in California!

The Timberwolves! I'm from Minnesota. I live in St. Louis Park, MN. Great video, my friend!
Thank you, appreciate it 🙏
Thank you for showing these areas of LA I haven't been to yet...😬
I bet you can't wait to visit now 😆
Like 14 👍 💯 ❤
Thanks, Matt. I was thinking, where do you leave all your stuff when you're walking around filming?? Take care, bro...

6:42, walked that many times…leads up to Little Toyko or the opposite direction runs into McDonald’s on left

But in fairness all city’s and town all over the world have good and bad as you said mate
I’d of bailed in the dark too !!!
Take care amigo 🙏🏼

Cheers Simon I didn't realise Digbeth had got that bad, been a while since I was there! All the best mate 🙏

my like from this channel too my friend
Just turn the corner and you find a very different world sadly. 😢
Very sad!
Oh mate, sky-high rents, homelessness and fentanyl are decimating some US cities. Your vids show off your filming skills, can't wait for Mexico. We're not worthy! 🤩
Fentanyl is the absolute devil mate! The Mexico videos will be much more cheerful 😆
Thanks for the video, the area looka dilapidated. Hopefully it will rebound someday.
Thanks Alex 😁
64 like beautiful sharing 👍💗💗
No thanks, not on my list, plus was there 48 years ago. Changed a lot.
Ah come on Mick, I know you wanna go on a hitchhiking and camping adventure there 🤣
@@no_soy_rubio not yet, the lure of skid row and all being hard to resist, I have many places I need to visit before 😄⛺
Raw, like many places rich and poor.
Yes only on steroids
Wow never realised skid row was as bad just read about the place now I've seen how awful it is in person on your video great sharing m8 😀
It's awful mate, needs Pratman to go and sort it out 😆
Could be a good Pratman special Pratman comes to skid row lol 🤣🤣🤣
@@Pratman skid row, los pratgeles 😆
Skid row covers 50 blocks? I had no idea. That seems like a lot. Remember, all the bad guys have guns in LA. That used to be my favorite city at one time. 👍
Yeah guns are what I'm afraid of. I still think it's a great city, just with a lot of issues
LA is hosting the 2028 Olympics - should be interesting.
Hopefully that'll give the council the kick up the arse they need to clean it up!
Bit like San Francisco then 😕
I would say even worse mate, at least the rough parts of SF you can find some help quickly if things go south...get lost in Skid Row and you're in trouble
Very nice
this was amazing i dropped a like and full support to your channel 9:44 🔔

Why?
You could of gone after dark to make it really scary 🫣🍄
