I absolutely love this series. These docs that are specifically focused on transportation in places experiencing extreme poverty, and the means they use to overcome for at the very least cope with the situation, is beyond fascinating. I was so happy to see that the playlist has over 100 entries
The people from every other country migrated from Africa tens of thousands of years ago, yet ironically, Africa remains a third world country. All of their technology and modern convinces came from people that left Africa. It is weird.
@@chiefkyle1098 being poor by any reason isn't bad, but facilitating China as your guest in belief that China will make you prosperous is not proved anywhere. Africa has been looted badly by China. Although there are many reasons, practical solution is too have self interest policies that partly benefits others but long term benefit should come to Africa. Anyways, it's easy to say but tough to execute so I can not say much about it.
The camera work, somewhat sarcastic commentary make this one of the best documentaries. There are many docus on this topic but none are this good. The French really know how to film stuff.
It's amazing that people can deal with so much hardship and maintain a positive outlook on life, whereas we get offended by everything in western countries as we have lives these people would kill for.
And in another video a guy has a broken windshield and he says in his language that some kids broke it with a rock and the narrator says it was shot out by an assault rifle and the driver was almost killed lol
We always appreciate the narrator guys …which is the easiest job from the studios, but have we ever imagined the job of the camera crew ..?? They shoot from the bus roof overlooking dangerous valleys and roof of the train plus top of the truck cruising through dangerous roads ..yet captured the BEST shots possible ..hats off SIR job well done plus thanks for bringing us True Africa …we love Africa especially children ..ur a GREAT INSPIRATION AFRICA❤️
It's so sad Africa is in this state despite our minerals. I sometimes feel our minerals are a curse to us. I hope one day Africa becomes much more better. Greetings from Ghana 🇬🇭
Legendary voice is back on air again. So sad despite the wealth underground Congo is languishing in penury,. A country that can light up the entire continent is in a sorry state due to bad governance. Oohh God help us we Africans
This episode is one of my favorites..I am addicted to this series but saddened by the negligence of African leaders..Our leaders have failed us...They are a bunch of greedy failures..GOD is watching and waiting patiently for the judgement day..
I don't know if am the only one who finds this narrator very funny, the way he voices over people in these tough conditions really cracks me up. I really thought Uganda is in a very bad state but this is too much!! Some countries should be FIFTH WORLD countries.
Omg 🙏🏿🙏🏿😂😂 I swear I remember this train but let me tell u guys it was so nice and clean back in the 90 we lived in Ilebo I take the train to kananga for so many years .😭😭 ah Congo na ngai ba nduku 😭😭 c’est pas vraie .
@@bluecast1430 my dad used to work for oil company so we used move a lot in Congo ; I lived 3 years in ilebo ; 3 in kananga and every years where the school was done we use to take vacation in KIN ; so the company used to rent the all wango or voiture for use to travel was best day of my life ; live in kindu for 2 year ; Goma for 4 ; Lubumbashi for 3 ; Matadi 4 then KIN when I finished High school secondaire travel to Canada to now 😬
Wo😮😮w it looks adventurous, but the risks are worth not taking according to a lay man, i think 💬💬🤔🤔 this country needs to wake up from slumber, much love ❤❤ from Uganda 🇺🇬🇺🇬
Lol, talk about it. imagine Congo is a rich country according to their history in their land but look the way they suffer like slaves in their own country. .. Oh my goodness! Lord have Marcy otherwise the situation in Congo it's very hard compare to other countries. African leaders you won't see heaven I swear upon the living God.
They come together to condemn overthrow in Africa but never condemn long stay in power because it is in their own interest, our riches is on paper and in the hands of our wicked leaders,they don't believe in anything in their own continent, Education abroad, medical abroad, saving account abroad, good home to live abroad, oo Africa.
In America we think our life is so hard.. lol compared to these people we live like kings. Respect to people who go to extreme lengths to put food on their table. 🙏🏽
I don't understand why this series always shows uploaded 5 hours ago but it's 2-3 month old if I am right. It may be older. I don't know. Just an stunt to get more view. But i love this series.been watching this series since last year 🤟🤘👍👍👍
Someday these guys will figure out that if they get some tubing and weld two bicycles together the whole thing would be much easier... I grew up in PNG and no stranger to conditions like these... much respect for the struggle.
This condition used to happens in my country's railway service back in the day before the government issued reform within the railway services in somewhere in 2014 (kinda forgot when)
@@getchasome6230 Yes I did watch the video and those people seem very resourceful they find a way out of no way I'm pretty sure if they really wanted to they could bring those rails to a better condition than they're in
It's just one road! A long road for sure, but just one. Why does't the government properly pave this road with asphalt? It would make everything so much better.
The best part when husband was flirting his wife on train,,,, yet there r so many obstacles in their day to day lives yet they r in love so much one blush moment from her wife made his day❤❤❤❤❤❤
Wee could learn of these people they have a great outlook and it's very tough so no one in America UK our life is easy compared to these country's wee should b all smiles but wee are just unhappy people
i feel so bad, every time i watch these i wish better things for these hard working folks. i use palm oil to feed my pet rats, and these folks are so happy to see a guy willing to sell them some into a pan. :(
Poor Katanga. At independence the wealthiest part of the Congo due to its natural riches, both in minerals and fertile land. The natives, both African and Belgian united to form an independent democratic state under Moise Tshombe to safeguard themselves from the rest of the chaos of the country. The UN invaded using Europeaan soldiers to install a government subservient to the communist Lumumba regime. They fought, and lost at first, to a local underarmed constabulary of Belgian and local Africans. Eventually they triumphed, exiling Tshombe who was later murdered. The Katanga has since been looted b the corrupt central government, socialist European regimes and international conglomerates favored by those regimes and the UN, who are all bribed by the conglomerates. Local businesses are crushed by large monopolies, who gain power through being run by government favorites and relatives, and an unholy alliance of international "charities" and NGO's, often run as vanity projects by entertainers and celebrities who haven't a clue about ordinary people. A case study and a warning to the United States now that our government and Condtitution have been overthrown in a coup by those same groups and our country is open for international exploitation by the new regime. Since we've adopted the Congo's election model I'm sure our government model will soon follow.
Katanga, once reach and beautiful was destroyed by the UN and communists. Rhodesia was next and now South Africa is on the verge of collapse. Africa will return to the stone age pretty soon.
I love this narrator. When he does both people in a conversation, it's the best.
Absolutely agree 💯❤❤❤
😂I agree it means me laugh 😂
I could listen to him all day...def the best!😊👍
Me too...he is a really good story teller
Totally agree. The intonation just brings it to life in a way that reading subtitles doesn't.
One of my favorite series, also glad to have this narrator back
But unfortunately these filmmakers never mentions narrator's name
Me too!
@@pixelphotographyByPrasad his name is don fanucci
I agree. The narrator is wonderful.
The Narration is superb..I love this Narrator..he makes it simply so u understand what is being said...I like these kind of Docs..BRAVO!!!

Everyone's favourite narrator. Great docu once again.
@Todd Cornett I Dude :P
I just love watching these documentary..it makes me appreciate my life and so thankful for all that l have..😊
i can see why these folks are pouring across europes southern border. they lead a rough life down there.
seriously
Every country has to go through this once in their journey towards success. But, thanks for this documentary. It's very tough to keep it so real.

If you watch African documentary you became to know that African is most strongest people on earth
Much love from zambia 🇿🇲
That's 100% accurate. Strong, Powerful and Beautiful people 💪🏽🙏🏽👍🏽❤️. Love from the Caribbean, Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹.
Best narrator ever..thats why i love any show he narrats..salute 👍
What's his name please
@@emmanuelngoma6201 ghonchuuuuu
Full respect to the camera men who filmed on the roof of the train 😨👏
Bullshit.... stay out our land. Keep the mzungu away.... period.
Seriously! The film crew has serious balls, some episodes they are actually in danger of being killed lol
It's amazing that people can deal with so much hardship and maintain a positive outlook on life, whereas we get offended by everything in western countries as we have lives these people would kill for.
The poorer, the less entitlement, and the kinder the person
Im proud to be African living in Africa.
IF these conditions appeared in the USA we'd loose 50+% of population
When you think you sound enlightened but you just sound dumb asf
They know risk. They are used to risk. They do it everyday
As a 🇰🇪 i love this documentary especially when they speak swahili because it is my language
I just checked the narrator's voice.its my favourite narrator ...will watch this full video at night..,
me too i love his voice
Prasad Karandikar: I couldn't agree more. He's a treasure for these documentaries! 👍
The narrator's communication skills are unparalleled and his deep voice is resonating...
Although he has a tendency to make up his own dialogue. Dude is holding an oil filter "We also have lights for night time" :D
@@SteinOnkel yes, he is making up as he goes along.
And in another video a guy has a broken windshield and he says in his language that some kids broke it with a rock and the narrator says it was shot out by an assault rifle and the driver was almost killed lol
I complain so much and people really risk their lives to do simple daily tasks , thank you to the film crew for bringing light to how people live!

It seems that governments are a curse on the whole world
@Stonedwalljack 92 what do you mean by that??
Legendary voice is back on air again. So sad despite the wealth underground Congo is languishing in penury,. A country that can light up the entire continent is in a sorry state due to bad governance. Oohh God help us we Africans
Whenever see this documentary my life has nothing to worry about
i love this documentary. and i really appreciate seeing you help out the poor as well
I away s like to watch your documentary I am praying that though people will get a better way of life watching from Jamaica
Excellent narration and excellent documentaries.. well done and thanks for showing us the world.
This episode is one of my favorites..I am addicted to this series but saddened by the negligence of African leaders..Our leaders have failed us...They are a bunch of greedy failures..GOD is watching and waiting patiently for the judgement day..
Leaders are ordinary people who decide to step up.
@@wachiramrm3925 lol not in politics buddy, not by a longshot
there is no god............
Leaders are a reflection of the people, that's true for every country. No corrupt leader cannot gain power without having large support.
I don't know if am the only one who finds this narrator very funny, the way he voices over people in these tough conditions really cracks me up. I really thought Uganda is in a very bad state but this is too much!! Some countries should be FIFTH WORLD countries.
A vision into the future, around 2080, when the UK will be just like this.
I'm gutted I won't be around to enjoy it.

Who else just started randomly watching this during lockdown and is now addicted
Same man haha
Great video showing some of worst roads in the world!
It's not the road but the Corrupt governments who care less or nothing for their people while their wives fly to Europe to see their dentist..
this is how most of us lived in the 90's here in Kenya
its sad to see the citizens of a very rich country in resources living this way.
its bad😠
Muito bom esses vídeos, parabéns pelo conteúdo
these ppl are soooo resourceful god bless them..i wouldnt last a day
Ohh you will just manage when pushed to the limit
THIS IS LIFE

I hope the situation can get better in the future... It was amazing yet sad at the same time.
Vert sad. It won't get better. Not as long as there is tribalism.
Very. typo.
Nothing will change Africa leaders are all dissame
@@suderman2811 Things will change... African leaders are responsible for part but not all of these issues.
These talking chimps and monkeys need to be exterminated
Great sir
In America we think our life is so hard.. lol compared to these people we live like kings. Respect to people who go to extreme lengths to put food on their table. 🙏🏽
Don't say in America,say on your native India,you are not an American u are an immigrant from India.
@@paulgitau6055 That's presumptuous. He could have been born in the USA and inherited his parent's Indian name.

Cheers mostly always good
Originally shown on France 5 as part of the series Les Routes de l'impossible.
Half hour version has different English narration but no translation.
25:34 Why the ground is blue is it the camera glitch or what?
You have to be of brave heart and mind to survive in the congo
You won't catch me riding this train.
Me neither, but that's because I'm never gonna go to the Congo.
Sad to say but this would never change not in our life time
Is this channel linked to “the free documentary” channel? Because it’s the same videos over there but it’s uploaded over here at a later time.
Looks like it to get more views..
Yeah looks like views farming.. But it's okay. This docu is worth to watch though. Just wished there are more newer docus they'll release
Anyone know the voice over artist name? This is total injustice to voice artist that this film maker never mentions his name.
They put holes in the roof to hang their stuff, then the rain comes in. 😂🤣
23:00 Love the flip flop reflectors!
Nice video. The bikers should buy a quad or so to transport their merchandise. And the rail company should buy double decker wagons.
Fun fact, those mud roads were actually paved some 60 years ago. But when the Belgians left there was no one to maintain them.
maybe their "king" should take care of his people and the roads a little more seems he is living very well
The King dies take care of his peoplе, he isn't apart if the government though do he cannot do anything about the roads.
My favourite narrator 😍😍🤭🤭🤭
Respect to those bikers .
I love how commerce thrives an drives humanity
This is HELL in reality
Why is there no one willing to maintain the rails??????🤔🤔🤔
Because nobodys willing to pay them.
@@getchasome6230 Ok but they use those same rails to make money sooooo🤷🏾♂️
@@b.g.bbeezo100 didnt you watch the video? Those guys are barely able to make the trip, let alone fix the countries infrastructure. Smh. Wtf
@@getchasome6230 Yes I did watch the video and those people seem very resourceful they find a way out of no way I'm pretty sure if they really wanted to they could bring those rails to a better condition than they're in
@@b.g.bbeezo100 have you fixed the potholes in the road in front of your house? If not, why?
Arent they most of them in France?
I'm just her for the narrator
Same video been copied over from channel to channel. What a shame.
Sharing is caring
✌🏾🙏🏾🐜there is a better way . . . i go, to prepare a place for you . . . 🙏🏾✌🏾🐜
It's just one road! A long road for sure, but just one. Why does't the government properly pave this road with asphalt? It would make everything so much better.
Good piece. I can help enhance it by providing more accurate Kiswahili/ lingala translations. Do let me know if you need a more powerful narration.
مرسی ممنون
The best part when husband was flirting his wife on train,,,, yet there r so many obstacles in their day to day lives yet they r in love so much one blush moment from her wife made his day❤❤❤❤❤❤
Wow the rails are in bad shape!
They definitely need some development in Africa.
Wee could learn of these people they have a great outlook and it's very tough so no one in America UK our life is easy compared to these country's wee should b all smiles but wee are just unhappy people
I hope u Guys knew this is old I seen the French version
20:05 sweeping the ground, the most thankless job ever?
Respect 👍🇮🇳
It's really sad how little the country's government give a damn about people talk about corruption at its highest level
The leaders get the best of everything God help them 🙏
Everyone dressed like Papa Wemba RIP 🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿

Steady uploading the same videos
If the governments of Africa were transparent and had vision of Africa in the 21st century. Imagine how things would be different
Such a rich country above and under ground and to live in this condition 😡
video and audio are out of sync.
I saw that man jump on the train. He’s the one who probably cut it!
Why was that vendor pushing that little boy in the pink shirt??!
Why are you repeating this video

Poor Katanga. At independence the wealthiest part of the Congo due to its natural riches, both in minerals and fertile land. The natives, both African and Belgian united to form an independent democratic state under Moise Tshombe to safeguard themselves from the rest of the chaos of the country. The UN invaded using Europeaan soldiers to install a government subservient to the communist Lumumba regime. They fought, and lost at first, to a local underarmed constabulary of Belgian and local Africans. Eventually they triumphed, exiling Tshombe who was later murdered. The Katanga has since been looted b the corrupt central government, socialist European regimes and international conglomerates favored by those regimes and the UN, who are all bribed by the conglomerates. Local businesses are crushed by large monopolies, who gain power through being run by government favorites and relatives, and an unholy alliance of international "charities" and NGO's, often run as vanity projects by entertainers and celebrities who haven't a clue about ordinary people.
A case study and a warning to the United States now that our government and Condtitution have been overthrown in a coup by those same groups and our country is open for international exploitation by the new regime. Since we've adopted the Congo's election model I'm sure our government model will soon follow.
Colonialism sucks
well put sir Tshombe would have saved the country instead he was demonized for what he did.
Katanga, once reach and beautiful was destroyed by the UN and communists.
Rhodesia was next and now South Africa is on the verge of collapse.
Africa will return to the stone age pretty soon.
