Until 1990, Belgrade was considered one of the safest metropolises in the world. There was almost no crime, the streets were absolutely safe. In 1992, Belgrade almost won the organization of the Summer Olympic Games, and the main motto was "Belgrade is the safest city". Due to everything that started happening in the country, in last moment the Olympics were awarded to Barcelona... and all this chaos seen in the film escalated in just 2 to 3 years, which gives the whole story and how the people of Belgrade felt even more weight. The great injustice was done by the cruel destruction of a wonderful country, which was called Yugoslavia. Evil times, it did not happen again to anyone.
Compare with London, Malmo or Paris and you'll see that today Belgrade is the safest of them all. Yugoslavia was a fake country in which one ethnic group asserted dominance over others, by controlling all the institutions of cultural, political and monetary significance. Nation = a state in which an ethnic group has a complete freedom to determine how they live, i.e. sovereignty and political self-determination. That's the best way to assure good relationship between neighbors: put a strong border between them, so they both know who owns what (an old Balkan saying: "We don't want what is yours, but we don't let anyone take what's ours").
@@ccdsds3221 Yeah, I know it's hard to believe, but those are all exact numbers, due to mass legal and illegal immigration that's still ongoing. Even the mainstream sources will tell you that, it's just that they will celebrate diversity while doing it, instead of cursing the loss of sovereignty of native people onto whom this destruction is imposed on (because they are White Europeans). I noticed you haven't complained about English. Because you recognize that's true or is that also false?

The inflation in those days was something like this: Avg salary was 5GBP nowdays, and the prices were skyrocketing during the day. So for your salary, in the morning, let's say you could buy a meal for a day for your family, but in the evening, you couldn't buy a bar of soap. The currencies were billion and million dinars at that time, you can google it. One part of the ''normal people'' were smuggling mostly ciggarettes and fuel, second group were private laborers, and the third group were the people who didn't know their way around. Those were the people that would fight each other in the lines for bread, flour, cooking oil etc.. Serbia was mad during the 90s, this is just a small part of a life back then. But with that diesel culture, everything went downhill. Even now, young generations want everything and they want it now, and Serbia isn't a country where you can make shit happen with your two hands and hard work. So the quickest way is the darkest way.

The best picture about Serbia in the 90s you can see in the movie "RANE" (WOUNDS). Story about criminals at that time. Same movie director made another movie called "LEPA SELA LEPA GORE". That is a story about war in Yugoslavia. Movies are not that dark. They even have fun moment, but you have meaning in every single sentence, situations and scene.. Maybe you will not understand them like we do, since we are living here, but worth to watch. You do not need to make impressions about them, just watch them in your private time.
"Lepa sela lepo gore" is a great and scary movie, it describes how the politics and profit divided people who were earlier at peace, and made horror which we feel even today. I get goosebumps only when I talk about it... The sad thing is that Kristijan Golubović, the one with kilos of chains around his neck, is now famous and can be seen on TV, nowadays presenting himself as some sort of an artist. Creepy...
Well I am 45 and still standing. I can only say that the whole story is much much longer and more tragic. There is so lot more to say about 90s in Serbia and the way how we survived. My wife and step children are American and I tried to describe them everything, but I know they can't ever understand it and I am so grateful they won't. Big hugs and greetings from Serbia.

The craziest thing is that if you live in such an environment, all this is normal for you. I am 1978 from Belgrade. The nineties, when I remember now, were total madness. In elementary school, when I was 12, a friend brought a gun to shoot bottle.Couple of us failed to hit the bottle from a distance of 5 meters.It was normal for me then, now that I remember I get chills :)At the same time, almost all of us were from families that used to be middle class.When the war starts and sanctions, everything goes to hell very quickly.

The Wounds - Rane (1998) - IMDb rating 8.0 That's real picture of life in Serbia in that time. 1h 43min Long. My friend from neighborhood told me about your videos. You do an interesting job, both of you.
You must understand one thing, for some people who watched this documentary back then this was exactly that, documentary about hard gangster life and what our country became, but for lot of kids and young people who was growing up in that time this was some kind "how to". Lot and lot of young boys died truying to became gangsters like some of "heroes" from this documentary, just luckie ones from that circle ended up in prison. I say boys because most of them was younger than twenty yo. That was a very hard times to normal living and to grow up, sad but true.
Pink panthers - the currently most wanted gang has his roots in BAlkan. And honestly if u wanna see true colors of us watch "Smrt Jugoslavije" . It includes everything. From yugoslavia,through wars,separation,Hague and war criminals, '90gangs,military and end is by the beginning of the 2000s. . .
I was born in 1990. Guys, just to understand what it was like during 90' in Belgrade. I have a distinct memory of waking up as a kid and the first thing on the news you ll see is how many were killed the previous day/night and who they were. Also, this documentary doesn't cover how many political figures and especially journalists were killed during this period and throughout the 2000'. It was just a complete madness. Nothing has changed much in terms of quality of life, and I am honestly afraid that we might be sliding down this madness again.
There was graffiti on one of the high schools in Podgorica in that time: He who learns will know, he who steals will have, Ko uči znaće, ko krade imaće
the grafitti in the schoolyard of the Belgrade s top high school Third grammar school said - Dao bih sina za kilo heroina - I would give away my son for a kilogram of heroin, in rhyme in serbian
Born in1976 , grew up in New Belgrade. Still live there. F`d up times, the 90`s , never would wish to go trough something like that again, but for some reason I remember those time fondly .
You said right thing "Imagine being American rich guy in Monaco live your life and some Serbian guy came to you and took it". That's the whole point of that time! Inflation, war, poor life people was like wait a minute we will show you who we are!
I'm a young guy from Serbia, born in 2000s, but if i'm not wrong i think at some point in the 90s, there was a 500 billion dinar banknote, our history teacher showed us one
Anthem of that period is song Dee Monk- Samo zelim da znam, which we can hear sometimes in this documentary movie... Song tells us about that period, about Belgrade, about angels above the city (death souls)
Well, since you've started unveiling the dark theme of 90s in Serbia/exYu, and going into OG Serbian rap with Beogradski sindikat, one of the things that you'd definitely find interesting is the song "Svedok saradnik" as it explains characters like Arkan, Legija, and many more that remained in the shadows, listening to directions, owning small to medium companies and a lot of real estate in Serbia, Montenegro and so on. Enjoy!
Almost everybody from this documentary killed in few years. This is the like 10% what's really going on. Living in 90this whas very dangerous, but in some weird way also more honest than now. I'm not from Belgrade, but spent allot time in 90this there. Really Crazy, crazy time, also in the rest of Serbia. Allot good memories from this point of view and time distance. I see from your videos ( music) that you guys understand allot people from Balkan and Serbia. My greetings to everyone in the balkans and especially to you guys.
You guys are doing very good job. I have one suggestion for You, you need to find there in London someone from former Yugoslavia who can explain You Balkan slang. Greetings from Belgrade.
Big shout out to you brothers, i really apriciate for your reactions and your support for belgrade and serbia. You should come, visit and feel belgrade... Its a wonderful city. Peace
They were hard times, I lived there when I was a kid, now I'm 35 and some pictures will never go out of my head. I liked your reaction to the darkness that surrounds us even today.
Very fun video! Just ran into your channel in recommended. I just wanted to let you guys know that it's not that you're not comprehending what they're saying, but the translation is quite bad at some points, sadly. For example, at 21:30 when he says "igrom slučaja" it's translated "by accident" when in fact a more proper translation would be "by chance"/"as faith would have it". Word "slučaj" means "case", but if you word it "slučajno" it means "accidentally", if you word it "slučajnost" then it becomes "coincidence". So it can cause a bit of confusion if the person translating has a bit weaker English or Serbian, or both. Keep up the good work, gonna check your other vids after this one, and greetings from Serbia!
This is the great example to respect Novak Djokovic's eforts for being such amazing guy....i hope you will change your thougts about him after this....(not all)
We Serbs are good people, a false image has been created of us being terrorists, growing up to hate. We like to get to know each other and make new friends. He supports. You guys are good guys.
There are lots of good people..but i see lots of people who are proud at this types of documenatries..i dont think this is something u want forengers to watch
The way those people word and phrase their sentences in this movie has become legendary in Serbia (especially in original Serbian, some of it can't even be properly translated into English). The phrase "Tiny swam, plenty of crocodiles" (mala bara mnogo krokodila) has become a proverb today. All of the criminals interviewed and presented in the film are dead today (except Kristian Golubovic who is still in and out of prison nowadays). Some of them have been murderer during the production of this movie. Dreadful times, it was a surreal hell on earth. The dark abyss of war, apocalypse, crippling economic sanctions, murders, poverty, waves of refugees, totalitarianism, hyperinflation, thrashy and ugly bad taste, crime, scams and international isolation. Damned and cursed 1990's! God forbids!
@ 17:00 One of the rival gang's leaders said that they are not bosses either in their own street and not even at the whole city so they came up to his hood to take a photo with his unprotected Porsche in front of his building and they put that in daily stamp interview....big balls homies...big balls 😁
I have lived, at that time, near the caffe where some of members of Vozdovac clan used to gather. As i remember, 2 attempts of assasination of Goran Vukovic happened near that cafe, which was located 150m tops from my apartment. I remember night chases through the park by my building and gunfights. I was kid back than it was all happening in the period of 3-4 years. Even knew some of guys mentioned or filmed in this documentarym but didnt know who were they.
Respect guys, you made a great documentary, a serious, difficult story. The real guys lost their lives in that crazy time, and the worst are rich today, they rule either way, those who watched all this from their seats were Daddy's communist sons, paid young "hot heads" to do their job and here we are today, unfortunately !!! As crazy as they were, they were brave, very good people, great friends, from an ordinary beggar to ... they would find a way to help everyone .... Giska was GOD !!!
I grew up in such hood in Belgrade during those days. Criminals everywhere, even nerds had to fight off bullies and guys who wanted to take your money from school lunch. But now it's much better and different. You can feel it, it's still there, that atmosphere around some people, but I'm happy when I come back to my hood and see everyone made it, and having families. It's just good feeling since we went through a lot.
I lived that time, went through it all, happiness or destiny who knows? Still alive with bullet scars! It was far from happening again! Happy with my family these days.
6:49 Do you know guys who that girl, now woman is? Sonja Lazetić. She is married to an ex football player Nikola Lazetic(FC Fenerbahce, FC Livorno, Kjevo, Komo, Sijena, Genova, Torino etc., domestic clubs. First husbund was murdered in 2000s left with two children...She owns Belgrade cafe Seher. Nikola Lazetic was in Ceca ex Velickovic/Raznatovic video/music spot lol. Her husbund Arkan took him like thing from other criminal, and sold him abroad, never gave money to club. lol...
Hey guys, I don't know if you'll see this, but I had to write because I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for doing this for the Serbian people. I've been in Croatia for a year now, working as a bartender in a beautiful hotel. The owners are great, colleagues are cool here and there, but unfortunately, the manager decided not to accept me as a colleague but as "there's no place for you here." At first, I channeled that frustration through training and running, in the end, it turned out great because I intentionally didn't bring my car so I wouldn't have anywhere to spend money, but running took me around most of the city. Anyway, it's starting to bother me now, and I've allowed myself to let such a low person ruin my days like today. But when I come home, shower, and watch one of your videos, it totally recharges my batteries for further work. Peace, brothers. ✌️😃
Lol mine whole teenager days runned in that period of time 90-95, but i didn't go their way cuz you know bro, we know how all they end...2 metra bez geometra...BTW Arkan married Ceca 95', he was killed 2000.
Was a 9-10 year old boy living in Belgrade back then while my parents were imprisoned on the "other side of the frontline". It was mad. One time a bullet ricochet off the wall near us while we were hanging out in the hood in front of the buildings. Duck dooown boy! HAHA! Greets from Serbia! Keep it real! Luv!
At that time, Serbian crime was the strongest in Europe, we were all afraid. black brothers, our Serbian mentality is fucked up. There are a lot of good people here, and when they do good, they do their best, but when it's bad, we are the worst🙂
Brothers,thank you for having interest in Serbian past and culture, I think many of us would appreciate if you can see and give us your opinion on movie called “Težina lanaca 3” by Boris Malagurski. Thank you in advance.
And the funny thing is that Belgrade now is, I can say safe city. There is crime, but it's like everywhere. And what is also funny, they said about New Belgrade: the poorest part of the city...And now is one of most expensive parts of the city and business area.

Great observations gents, .I am a Serbian woman living in Toronto Canada. I was 18 years old during the time of the war in Serbia and living in Serbia with my grandparents. It was a horrible time in our country's history. Inflation was out of control. People would work all months and when they received their monthly paycheck by the time they walked across the street to the bank to cash it it was worthless..... you could see money and paychecks all over the streets during these times.
It's still the same just a little bit better organized. That's what all these rappers are rapping about, the shlt is real. Watch movie Rane (the wounds)
I was young back then, I was 12 or 13 years old when this movie came out but I remember everything very vividly. And it didn't matter much that I was a kid, it was much worse than you get impression from the movie, there were already then kids my age or a year or two older who already stabbed or shot someone or robbed a store. There was hardly a day pass by without some murder or other criminal act. Plus sanctions, plus war in the neigbourhood and at the end, in 1999. in our country, too. Poverty, frauds on every corner, crooked cops...Insane years.
By the way Arkan (one guy mentioned in this video that he is his idol for being most successful criminal and one of richest people in Yugoslavia at the time) was husband to Svetlana Ceca Raznatovic(that's her in the wedding scene where everybody is shooting) the singer that you guys reacted to a couple of her songs :) Great video and I would suggest watching Tezine Lanaca by Boris Malagurski its very entertaining documentary and there are like 3 parts of it. Peace!
i was just about to recommend all documentaries made by Boris Malagurski, but you should definitely start with "Weight of chains" which Matori001 recommended (Težina lanaca). They are a bit longer, and I am not sure you will be able to film your reactions to them, but if you are interested in knowing things about our beautiful country, you should watch them.
@@dd-sp9jy da. Baš sam se iznenadio. Celu stranicu, možda dve. Kamoristi su ga snabdevali ilegalno oružjem jer smo tada glumili da nismo u ratu sa HR. Finansirao je sve parama DB-a, pa ih je čak i krajcovao.
@@dd-sp9jy radi se o neverovatnim ciframa. To se kod nas krije 30god. Ko zna šta je sve ona izopačena Ceca nasledila. Cifre koje spominje Saviano su stvarno neverovatne. Oružje nikada nije bilo jeftino.
You should probably watch “Weight of chains” by Boris Malagurski. It’s a documentary about degradation of all Yugoslavian countries after the war. But it’s good because it can help you to see some stuff happening around a world from whole new point of view. It has 3 parts. You don’t have to make reaction about it, I recommened it to watch for yourself in your free time.
The fact is you can find tough guys in almost every Serbian street...criminals, football hooligans, even regular guys can be tough if you compare them with regular people from western Europe. Ps. Welcome to Serbia guys 😁🙂

Lot and lot of young boys died truying to became gangsters like some of "heroes" from this documentary, just luckie ones from that circle ended up in prison. I say boys because most of them was younger than twenty yo. That was a very hard times to normal living and to grow up, sad but true.
Pink panthers - the currently most wanted gang has his roots in BAlkan. And honestly if u wanna see true colors of us watch "Smrt Jugoslavije" . It includes everything. From yugoslavia,through wars,separation,Hague and war criminals, '90gangs,military and end is by the beginning of the 2000s. . .
Not in Balkan, they are Serbs the Pink panters.
@@dd-sp9jy they started as all Serbs group. Later on,they had Greek woman with them,even a Bulgarian guy. . .
I was born in 1990. Guys, just to understand what it was like during 90' in Belgrade. I have a distinct memory of waking up as a kid and the first thing on the news you ll see is how many were killed the previous day/night and who they were. Also, this documentary doesn't cover how many political figures and especially journalists were killed during this period and throughout the 2000'. It was just a complete madness. Nothing has changed much in terms of quality of life, and I am honestly afraid that we might be sliding down this madness again.
We're already there. And let's not forget - racism is rampant, and this problem very overlooked.
Yeah. On whole Balkan politicians are still corupted and underground is still hard af.
Nothing different then the 48 journalists killed during the 90s war..
There was graffiti on one of the high schools in Podgorica in that time: He who learns will know, he who steals will have, Ko uči znaće, ko krade imaće
the grafitti in the schoolyard of the Belgrade s top high school Third grammar school said - Dao bih sina za kilo heroina - I would give away my son for a kilogram of heroin, in rhyme in serbian
Born in1976 , grew up in New Belgrade. Still live there. F`d up times, the 90`s , never would wish to go trough something like that again, but for some reason I remember those time fondly .
You said right thing "Imagine being American rich guy in Monaco live your life and some Serbian guy came to you and took it". That's the whole point of that time! Inflation, war, poor life people was like wait a minute we will show you who we are!
I'm a young guy from Serbia, born in 2000s, but if i'm not wrong i think at some point in the 90s, there was a 500 billion dinar banknote, our history teacher showed us one
That bride next to Arkan is Ceca. Read Arkans biography on Wikipedia you'll be shocked
Ya he was a low life criminal and informant..
Greetings from Belgrade, the city where the mobsters from the documentary ruled the underground in the 90's. Great reaction!
All love from Serbia! Great video!
this is the short version of this documentary, such a good reaction guys Greetings from SRPSKA REPUBLIKA BOSNA
🇧🇦🍻✌
Love you boys! You're welcome in Serbia!!!
Enormous respect for all of the pronunciations! But also what a surprise to see you two reacting to this lol actually a madness
Yeaa man,It was a hell of a ride on 90th.Street school, old crew...here we are 25 years later!Please let the music play and let it roll:-))
Anthem of that period is song Dee Monk- Samo zelim da znam, which we can hear sometimes in this documentary movie... Song tells us about that period, about Belgrade, about angels above the city (death souls)
You need to watch "Rane"...Movie about three boys from 90' who choose dark side of life
ok znaci neko se vec setio :D i to je jedini film koji moze da isprati ovaj dokumentarac
A sta je sa "Do koske"? Meni daleko jace
Rane i Lepa sela...dva filma koja najbolje oslikavaju devedesete na ovim prostorima...

Well, since you've started unveiling the dark theme of 90s in Serbia/exYu, and going into OG Serbian rap with Beogradski sindikat, one of the things that you'd definitely find interesting is the song "Svedok saradnik" as it explains characters like Arkan, Legija, and many more that remained in the shadows, listening to directions, owning small to medium companies and a lot of real estate in Serbia, Montenegro and so on.
Enjoy!
Almost everybody from this documentary killed in few years. This is the like 10% what's really going on. Living in 90this whas very dangerous, but in some weird way also more honest than now. I'm not from Belgrade, but spent allot time in 90this there. Really Crazy, crazy time, also in the rest of Serbia. Allot good memories from this point of view and time distance. I see from your videos ( music) that you guys understand allot people from Balkan and Serbia. My greetings to everyone in the balkans and especially to you guys.
Belgrade was a wicked place. Respect for my brothers from Vozdovac district!
You guys are doing very good job.
I have one suggestion for You, you need to find there in London someone from former Yugoslavia who can explain You Balkan slang.
Greetings from Belgrade.
Yeees i like this from Macedonia and i love my Serbian orthodox Slavic brothers
Pozdrav od KUMANOVO 🇲🇰🇲🇰🇲🇰
Big shout out to you brothers, i really apriciate for your reactions and your support for belgrade and serbia. You should come, visit and feel belgrade... Its a wonderful city. Peace
They were hard times, I lived there when I was a kid, now I'm 35 and some pictures will never go out of my head. I liked your reaction to the darkness that surrounds us even today.
That is a Nissan 300zx, but at that time in Srbija, it was like two Veyrons and little bit more on top 😁
Very fun video! Just ran into your channel in recommended. I just wanted to let you guys know that it's not that you're not comprehending what they're saying, but the translation is quite bad at some points, sadly.
For example, at 21:30 when he says "igrom slučaja" it's translated "by accident" when in fact a more proper translation would be "by chance"/"as faith would have it". Word "slučaj" means "case", but if you word it "slučajno" it means "accidentally", if you word it "slučajnost" then it becomes "coincidence". So it can cause a bit of confusion if the person translating has a bit weaker English or Serbian, or both.
Keep up the good work, gonna check your other vids after this one, and greetings from Serbia!
We love you Brothers!
Great podcast 👍

only a few actors of the film survived, after the film (until 2000) almost all were killed, only snitches survived and some were saved by prison
When Grof talks about jail and tells about "hitting people". He is not talking about punches or kicks, he was STABBING ppl.
9:24... And this guy is still alive
Ludi Krile!
Now listen - Beogradski sindikat - Svedok(Saradnik) this documentary has been shortened to a song
great Reaction...!!! really i like you guys!!!! grettings from switzerland and srbija!!!
We Serbs are good people, a false image has been created of us being terrorists, growing up to hate. We like to get to know each other and make new friends. He supports. You guys are good guys.
There are lots of good people..but i see lots of people who are proud at this types of documenatries..i dont think this is something u want forengers to watch
The way those people word and phrase their sentences in this movie has become legendary in Serbia (especially in original Serbian, some of it can't even be properly translated into English). The phrase "Tiny swam, plenty of crocodiles" (mala bara mnogo krokodila) has become a proverb today. All of the criminals interviewed and presented in the film are dead today (except Kristian Golubovic who is still in and out of prison nowadays). Some of them have been murderer during the production of this movie. Dreadful times, it was a surreal hell on earth. The dark abyss of war, apocalypse, crippling economic sanctions, murders, poverty, waves of refugees, totalitarianism, hyperinflation, thrashy and ugly bad taste, crime, scams and international isolation. Damned and cursed 1990's! God forbids!

@ 17:00 One of the rival gang's leaders said that they are not bosses either in their own street and not even at the whole city so they came up to his hood to take a photo with his unprotected Porsche in front of his building and they put that in daily stamp interview....big balls homies...big balls 😁
U R the best! Greeting from Serbia-Belgrade
I have lived, at that time, near the caffe where some of members of Vozdovac clan used to gather. As i remember, 2 attempts of assasination of Goran Vukovic happened near that cafe, which was located 150m tops from my apartment. I remember night chases through the park by my building and gunfights. I was kid back than it was all happening in the period of 3-4 years. Even knew some of guys mentioned or filmed in this documentarym but didnt know who were they.
Respect from the Serbs from Australia
Respecttttttt 👊👊👊
Respect guys, you made a great documentary, a serious, difficult story. The real guys lost their lives in that crazy time, and the worst are rich today, they rule either way, those who watched all this from their seats were Daddy's communist sons, paid young "hot heads" to do their job and here we are today, unfortunately !!! As crazy as they were, they were brave, very good people, great friends, from an ordinary beggar to ... they would find a way to help everyone .... Giska was GOD !!!
Solomon Hill was once a young player with some potential, now he has 0.6 ppg and comments on videos on serbian mafia
@@ZFherri Who are you to comment on my life and what I watch and what I do?
I grew up in such hood in Belgrade during those days. Criminals everywhere, even nerds had to fight off bullies and guys who wanted to take your money from school lunch. But now it's much better and different. You can feel it, it's still there, that atmosphere around some people, but I'm happy when I come back to my hood and see everyone made it, and having families. It's just good feeling since we went through a lot.
I can't believe you're watching this hahaha, this time was INSANE.. these videos looks unreal, but it was exactly like that..
Serbia was the agresor, and that's it!
"Whose is this song?" kind of a long one, but you could enjoy it. History, culture, music, and Balkan craziness, all in one :)
And that's not even 1% of all craziness..
Song is:
Dee monk - samo želim da zmam
For that life guilty it politica,people don't have money and food.. Criminal is only have money.People go in europa,Serbia is than dad.
I lived that time, went through it all, happiness or destiny who knows?
Still alive with bullet scars!
It was far from happening again!
Happy with my family these days.
Group america killed all of those guys
Infamous - Sto godina 👍
I fuck w the content, keep grinding
i was 9-10 y old boy back then... still reemember all ✌️
6:49 Do you know guys who that girl, now woman is? Sonja Lazetić. She is married to an ex football player Nikola Lazetic(FC Fenerbahce, FC Livorno, Kjevo, Komo, Sijena, Genova, Torino etc., domestic clubs. First husbund was murdered in 2000s left with two children...She owns Belgrade cafe Seher.
Nikola Lazetic was in Ceca ex Velickovic/Raznatovic video/music spot lol. Her husbund Arkan took him like thing from other criminal, and sold him abroad, never gave money to club. lol...
Hey guys, I don't know if you'll see this, but I had to write because I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for doing this for the Serbian people. I've been in Croatia for a year now, working as a bartender in a beautiful hotel. The owners are great, colleagues are cool here and there, but unfortunately, the manager decided not to accept me as a colleague but as "there's no place for you here." At first, I channeled that frustration through training and running, in the end, it turned out great because I intentionally didn't bring my car so I wouldn't have anywhere to spend money, but running took me around most of the city. Anyway, it's starting to bother me now, and I've allowed myself to let such a low person ruin my days like today. But when I come home, shower, and watch one of your videos, it totally recharges my batteries for further work. Peace, brothers. ✌️😃
👊🙏💪 I’m happy to hear that we have that affect brother. Just continue !!!
Lol mine whole teenager days runned in that period of time 90-95, but i didn't go their way cuz you know bro, we know how all they end...2 metra bez geometra...BTW Arkan married Ceca 95', he was killed 2000.
Thank you guys for reminding me of this video. 👋
Was a 9-10 year old boy living in Belgrade back then while my parents were imprisoned on the "other side of the frontline". It was mad. One time a bullet ricochet off the wall near us while we were hanging out in the hood in front of the buildings. Duck dooown boy! HAHA! Greets from Serbia! Keep it real! Luv!
this is your best video so far and the best reaction to it
I remember 90s in Serbia. Every bit of it. Horrendous times man.
At that time, Serbian crime was the strongest in Europe, we were all afraid. black brothers, our Serbian mentality is fucked up. There are a lot of good people here, and when they do good, they do their best, but when it's bad, we are the worst🙂
This is real ghetto
You should react to" War stories from Košare" documentary about bloody war of Kosovo....
Da,brate.
very good reaction! greetings from zürich🇷🇸
Brothers,thank you for having interest in Serbian past and culture, I think many of us would appreciate if you can see and give us your opinion on movie called “Težina lanaca 3” by Boris Malagurski. Thank you in advance.
Bravo Bravo Bravo👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Arkan is husband od Ceca and father of Anastasia, you made reaction of theirs songs.
Wedding in movie is of Arkan and Ceca…
born there been living there until 1998 then moved to the Netherlands Belgrade in the 90s was fire indeed
And the funny thing is that Belgrade now is, I can say safe city. There is crime, but it's like everywhere. And what is also funny, they said about New Belgrade: the poorest part of the city...And now is one of most expensive parts of the city and business area.

Great observations gents, .I am a Serbian woman living in Toronto Canada. I was 18 years old during the time of the war in Serbia and living in Serbia with my grandparents. It was a horrible time in our country's history. Inflation was out of control. People would work all months and when they received their monthly paycheck by the time they walked across the street to the bank to cash it it was worthless..... you could see money and paychecks all over the streets during these times.
It's still the same just a little bit better organized. That's what all these rappers are rapping about, the shlt is real.
Watch movie Rane (the wounds)
I was young back then, I was 12 or 13 years old when this movie came out but I remember everything very vividly. And it didn't matter much that I was a kid, it was much worse than you get impression from the movie, there were already then kids my age or a year or two older who already stabbed or shot someone or robbed a store. There was hardly a day pass by without some murder or other criminal act. Plus sanctions, plus war in the neigbourhood and at the end, in 1999. in our country, too. Poverty, frauds on every corner, crooked cops...Insane years.
This one coupled with "Weight of Chains" and you pretty much got the whole picture of the region.
😂
Sick documentary.
By the way Arkan (one guy mentioned in this video that he is his idol for being most successful criminal and one of richest people in Yugoslavia at the time) was husband to Svetlana Ceca Raznatovic(that's her in the wedding scene where everybody is shooting) the singer that you guys reacted to a couple of her songs :) Great video and I would suggest watching Tezine Lanaca by Boris Malagurski its very entertaining documentary and there are like 3 parts of it. Peace!
i was just about to recommend all documentaries made by Boris Malagurski, but you should definitely start with "Weight of chains" which Matori001 recommended (Težina lanaca).
They are a bit longer, and I am not sure you will be able to film your reactions to them, but if you are interested in knowing things about our beautiful country, you should watch them.
You can find Arkan i Roberto Saviano's Gomorrah. He give him one page of the book and gave short but good explenation of his criminal life.
@@kiferzablacanski
Spominje Arkana u knjizi?
@@dd-sp9jy da.
Baš sam se iznenadio. Celu stranicu, možda dve. Kamoristi su ga snabdevali ilegalno oružjem jer smo tada glumili da nismo u ratu sa HR. Finansirao je sve parama DB-a, pa ih je čak i krajcovao.
@@dd-sp9jy radi se o neverovatnim ciframa. To se kod nas krije 30god. Ko zna šta je sve ona izopačena Ceca nasledila.
Cifre koje spominje Saviano su stvarno neverovatne. Oružje nikada nije bilo jeftino.
This is film is from the 90's, today - same. This country needs the Daredevil. On second taught, the Punisher.
After this you have to listen Beogradski sindikat- svedok saradnik. The song is telling about these guys and that time.
Cheers! I was 17-18 years old at the time of those events. Sanctions and war imposed that on us.
You should probably watch “Weight of chains” by Boris Malagurski. It’s a documentary about degradation of all Yugoslavian countries after the war. But it’s good because it can help you to see some stuff happening around a world from whole new point of view. It has 3 parts. You don’t have to make reaction about it, I recommened it to watch for yourself in your free time.
@@SAWONE-iw6co sta je glupo? Osim ako si botina
The fact is you can find tough guys in almost every Serbian street...criminals, football hooligans, even regular guys can be tough if you compare them with regular people from western Europe.

This is the 90s. Crazy and it's true...real life in Serbia. Respect for you brothers BRAVO. Welcome to Србија
