Unhinged: Surviving Johannesburg

- Unhinged: Surviving Jo’burg is an honest, quirky and sometimes frenzied documentary about Johannesburg, South Africa’s biggest city and the world’s gateway to Southern Africa.
With rapid narrative, dry humour, trivial factoids, insightful observations and a highly enjoyable soundtrack, the film tells a slice- of-city-life story. It’s a personal video snapshot of today’s city, providing a unique opportunity for viewers to get a glimpse inside a place that the world has a very fuzzy sense of.
Director: Adrian Loveland

The City of Gold. Dangerous,dangerous place, even south africans are scared to live there.
Every house has high walls and barbed wire for a reason. An alarm is a must. Basically you need a fortress 🤣
Same thing in our African neighborhoods
17 years after this documentary was made and nothing has changed, viva ANC
It's terrible. South Africa is beautiful but violence and crime is slowly eating the country away. Investors are slowly pulling off and things will only get worse from here. Burning things, looting, and anger won't help anyone. Authorities really need to be tough and vet out corrupt officials.
Been living in Joburg for 20 years, started primary school here...lived in Hillbrow for about 15 years and now living in the busy Joburg CBD (Marshalltown)...I don't know if I've just adapted to it, but it's not as bad as people make it out to be.
The city looks to be in a dilapidated state. There are hijacked and abandoned buildings everywhere. When you moved there 20 years ago, was the city in a better or worse state than now?
true
Talented, very talented…the move stands out and reflects the city vibe .. great and very talented work 👍
There's something about the vibe in Jozi that compels you to take action, build something, create, dare, network, sell, etc. Something about the energy in the city sparks the cells in your body that just about anything and everything is possible. You won't find it anywhere else in the world.
very true. Its my favourite place in the world.
This was so so well done. Great job!
😭😭😭 feeling sad to see wat am seeing 😭😔
Crime exists because they want it to exist. Crime would stop in 30 days if they would make a system like dubai . In Dubai crime is almost non existent.
Term Crime is broad if you think about all the scams ran from Dubai🤣🤣🤣..just saying 🤗
Too fast paced, i know its your style but tone it down its almost like we are watching tik tok with loud music
Overall love the documentary and your humor
It’s almost disorienting, especially when you’re really interested and trying to learn something new, anyway thank you. You hit the nail right on its head.
This must be that Wakanda that they speak of so often.
You sound like a fn trump supporting bigot
Lol
Sheeeeit
😂
who do you think ruins it since you have a big mouth
Really enjoyed this
How old is this documentary? Suspecting it's over 20 years
Been wondering the same about this channel. All extremely old (often interesting) documentaries but zero info on where they come from or even who made them.
If I made a documentary and it wound up on this channel, which pretends to create these films, then I'd be upset
@@evanhaddad1960 you're absolutely right there. Most documentaries on RUclips are posted on private pages , without proper permission from the owners or any form of acknowledgement for the producers. It isn't right at all
It seems this was made 2009 (that's the date on the press banner). Conditions now - in 2024 - are very different. The extremes have gotten even more extreme. Still a real beast of a city. Not for the faint hearted.
Here I am sitting in South Africa wondering what the hell you're going on about.
That’s got to be laughable right? My friend lived in SA for 50 years she only returned to her home country 2 years ago and the things she has actually told
Me is horrifying what she has witnessed in the streets, police corruption, harm to children or making children beg.
Sharp! Great video ❤
I've been to cities in Kenya,Tanzania,Zambia,Zimbabwe,Botswana etc but the only place i felt unsafe is in Jo'burg. I slept with a knife under my pillow,that's how unsafe i felt...i've never done that in other countries...never. One other thing i can say about SA...absolutely beautiful country,the views are spectacular.
Yeah, I would not recommend that you sleep in the street in Joburg. You sure will need a knife under your pillow 🤔
Nothing like Jozi in the world! You have to experience it 1st hand to understand. Have to move very diligent, but as long as you don’t let fear consume your heart you will have the time of your life, regardless of your background
Sounds like SA as a whole tbh.
Over here every intersection has beggars too, the violence is ongoing and the police simply don't give a f/*ck.
Well put together. Great film. That's as close to Africa as I'm getting. ❤ looks beautiful though
Joburg is now ghetto it is too expensive to maintain rust, pot holes, garbage, dead animals and staff my last visit was 2023 and I'm waiting to visit again for the next 10 years to see if it still exist
You need big minds. I'm watching this at 2am, and I like it. Give those below the poverty line free education up to right before college (high school in the United States), including lunch. All that diamond money can pay for that, it won't, but it could easily. Also, offer housing, rent to own or whatever to get impoverished people exposed to the concept generational wealth. It's not complicated. How do children of wealthy parents succeed? What is different for them? Keep people down, and stupid, and in severe poverty.. apartheid, and this is what you get. It takes generations to fix what that evil broke. But get some big minds on it. Good documentary.
❤ let’s do this !
They have got everything for free but still unhappy
Why is it people wonfer why Africa stayed centuries behind the rest of the world? Just look at the horror show theyve made of South Afica since taking over after apartheid. Who honestly expected less?
It's a bit like listening to rap music, not a documentary.
omg can't watch it, such a stressful film style.. sorry, i tried 😢
Likewise. It’s rubbish. Typical production from outsiders who lack personal experience.
I’ve lived in Joburg, plan to return and retire but till then fly from USA there 4 times a year. Lovely place. Great people. They deserve better than this.
Very poor documentary of Jozi and sheer disrespect of normal people who live there.
Anyone convinced that they understand Johannesburg from this video should stick to cartoons for understanding life.
This is the best doc IV seen
@bcs2k1 bs. Highest crime rate against white people in the world. SA is a disgrace as was what Rhodesia
A people stared at the ocean, never thought to build a ship.
Best intro ive seen thus far... SO much cramped up in a few seconds. Its a good start to exemplify the fast paced and stressful life of us Jozi people. BUT the rest of the documentary shouldve been a bit slower paced.
This can't be recent, when was this shot, 2008?
You just sold Jozi to the world!!!!
I lived downtown Seattle when I was 19 and every night for a while I would spray paint on the side of Macy's-free South Africa and duck and cover. Just like giving the peasants of Russia freedom in 92, the fools didn't want it.
I enjoyed Egoli whilst I lived there. It's an awesome place. However as a disabled person with disabled child it was too expensive to live there. Africa is for everyone. I have great friends and family in Jozi. Ngiyabonga for a uMulhe doc
Good work guys
Cool film guy!
Nice doc china, from a Jozi boy aboard 👍🏻☀🍻
Epic video! Love JHB!
This is epic. I love eGoli !
Absolutely impressive
city of Gold!!!
I used to watch the great liners sailing out thro' the Solent at 4.00 pm every Thursday and wished I was aboard
Where year this was made?
When your FOOTS BOTTOM SOLES is dirty then just Wash it Properly but there is no necessity to damage your own Precious FOOTS.
SA has the highest inequality rate in the world speaks a lot about the double economy
The whole world is this way, the side effects of Capitalist greed.
@@mishaguevara not really SA is the most extreme example of it
But i thought SA prides itself as the richest and most developed country in Africa? How can that be?
@@pietrojenkins6901 even nigeria says they are the giants of africa but they are not far from it dont take these names seriously
@@mishaguevara😂😂
Zéro for narration music too lourd and chaotic
I'd recommend making a new one with less amphetamines
Good one young fella.
The Trigger of any violence is Cheap Criticism but when you knew how to Pacify then even enemies will serve has LOYAL SERVANTS and BODYGUARDS always and the simple example of PACIFY is Massage services.
Zimbabve 2
IS THE BACK GROUND MUSIC NECESSARY....TERRIBLE...COULD NOT WATCH......
Sorry but jumping around way too much of this video for me
There is Five categories in every sectors thus Lots of DESIRES will inspire us to do anything worse on some circumstances.
This is not a documentary it's a rap battle. Quit after three minutes
The background music is very annoying.
Delicious Foods alone can Rid any methods of voluntary Nuisance and violence anywhere because when the Stomach is under satisfied meant even the JEALOUSY VIBES will Fade away surely.
At 8:41 good story about survival, I had to get out of Seattle because PBS made a movie about my friend killing himself, I watch Chitty Chitty bang bang it's me, they taught me how to be gay and then turn me loose in 88, it would of killed me. I left a million of my mother's she even made another million and I didn't get one penny of nothing. But I'll live to 100
All EVILS just surrender to FIRE BLAZERS.
Love and rockets!
We used to it now 😂🇿🇦
Old documentary
. ( ECCLESIASTICUS ) 10 : 1.. 2.. 3.. A wise judge will instruct his people ; and the government of a prudent man is well ordered. As the judge of the people is himself, so are his officers ; and what manner of man the ruler of the city is, such are all they that dwell therein. An unwise king destroyeth his people ; but through the prudence of them which are in authority the city shall be inhabited.
RIP LUCKY
absolutely brilliant ........ sad though we live amongst demons and infidels
Man.. Slow down why you speaking too fast...😢😢😢😢😢
Hi, who will stop these types of fake news, I will pay him .
When you start work, I will start to pay you by my own way . 😊
Let's call a spade a spade. It's a beautiful country thats turned into a shit show now more than ever. Good luck to all the stay and make a change warriors! Saying one loves a place whilst living in unavoidable fear and anxiety everyday is a contradiction. Each to their own, best decision I ever made was to leave years ago. "The culture of any organisation is shaped by the worst behaviour the leader is willing to tolerate"
Rewind to 1970s please boss let us in to your shining city on the hill we promise to behave bruv look at this thumbnail
The narrator of this "documentary" is on drugs.
This is rubbish 😂 can't even watch, it's like 1000s of tiktoks stitched together
Could this have produced any worse? It's like they tried to guarantee no one would ever watch more than 2 minutes of this garbage.
It was made in 2008, this is a typical editing style of the time.
@@ianwolvaardt2352 Wow I guess I missed that and am glad I did!! It's too bad also because this information NEEDS to get out...
it doesn't look good the people who pays tax we are the people who actually suffer we are working so hard black or white we paying tax

Illiterate. Your answer does not matter.
jajajajajajajajaja
Old shit footage as usual... sigh😕 @best documentary 😪
Sadly, this proves the old adage…most lost person in Africa is the non-African. Yet he talks nonsense louder than anyone in the room.
worst narration the narrator is painful
These types of documentaries are just nonsense. It doesn't help anyone with anything. Very poor level of research if any conducted on the origins of southern Africa and the organization called South Africa. Nothing mentioned about the causes of the socio-economic imbalance that has resulted in all issues of concern discussed in this terrible so called journalism.
Way too fast talking- horrible
No whiteman discovered gold, you found us busy and it was never empty
Busy doing what? Carrying water on your head from the community well that the WEST installed back to your mud hut. And did you know you have a fly under your eyeball?
Why is every black neighborhood or country always shit . Trump is right
ok ok
Looks more like the DNC after party 😊
I smell a MAGA.
