The Meet the Stans series took Simon from the far north-west of Kazakhstan, by the Russian border, east to the Chinese border, south through Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan to the edge of Afghanistan, and west to Uzbekistan and the legendary Silk Road cities of Samarkand and Bukhara.
The Guardian said it was a thrilling postcard from the edge
The Times said: Simon Reeves journey through Kazakhstan is a first-class Boys Own adventure on film and illuminating too. I cant imagine anyone switching off who stays for the first five minutes.
Simon Reeve is a bestselling author and broadcaster. In recent years hes travelled to scores of countries around the world for a series of BBC television documentaries.
The 2008 BBC TV series Tropic of Capricorn took Simon around the line marking the southern border of the tropics. His accompanying book, also called Tropic of Capricorn, is published by BBC Books.
In the BBC series Equator, Simon followed the equator through troubled areas of Africa, Asia and Latin America, including Colombia and the Congo.
In Places That Dont Exist, Simon travelled through a group of unrecognised nations countries so obscure they dont officially exist.
And in Meet the Stans, Simon visited the Central Asian states of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan.
Simons book The New Jackals: Ramzi Yousef, Osama bin Laden and the future of terrorism, which warned of a new age of apocalyptic terrorism, was the first in the world on bin Laden and al Qaeda. Originally published in 1998 it has been a New York Times bestseller.
Simon has contributed to other books on organised crime, terrorism and biological warfare. His book One Day in September: the story of the 1972 Munich Olympics massacre, is also an Oscar-winning feature documentary film narrated by the actor Michael Douglas.

Thanks for watching!
"Marijuana grows like weeds". LOL
Lolll
marijuana or hemp??
@@ReggaeRedeemermarijuana
Imagine that…….haha, for research purposes
Imagine
Nobody stops because everyone has big buds growing at home.
Those buds would be full of seeds and suck
"Vicious weeds", yet tonight he'll get plastered on booze. Oh but that's okay...
Clearly he was joking
Dude, this happened once in Southern California, off the side of the 91 Fwy in Diamond Bar. Weed was growing left and right, wildly and police finally took it all out after possibly years of it being there and no one noticing. Or so they think.
Spain
It's probably hemp...
dood food More than Yes
For Cordage.
LOL, he says that if Cannabis was growing like that in Europe no one would get any work done...this is wrong for one reason, if Cannabis freely grew like this in Europe people would become farmers of it just like they are in the Himalayas, Africa and the East. The truth is that Cannabis creates work if people are willing to use it to its full benefit.
Someone should remind him it is growing in Europe and people are still getting work done.
I realise I shouldn't have mentioned the East, but if you look at the living that growing Cannabis has created and is still doing so for people in the Himalayas, the Caribbean and Africa. People are just about sustaining themselves on the farming of this stuff - imagine if they were permitted to do so on a much larger commercial scale.
Nick Lindsey Spot on I guess, it makes sense. I would expect the major corporations to extort from the vulnerable anyway.
in pakistan, india, china, afghanistan, Kazakhstan...all these countries have wild marijuana growing abundantly and the most of the local ppl dont care...its just a weed. but there are many users too, who love smoking hash that is made from that weed. when you can chop down some wild buds, dry them, and smoke them..it makes you respect that plant, and all the 'coolness' and taboo associated with it goes out the window. its just a part of nature.
I have traveled in many areas where cannabis grows wild and yes it is considered a weed and a real pest, it seemed like any patch of uncultivated land was covered in the stuff. I used to curse it as after walking through it for any length of time my boots and trouser legs would be covered in the sticky resin from the plants and it was really hard to get it off.
My take on why people don't bother smoking marijuana is why would they when they can buy a chocolate block sized block of hashish for practically nothing.
Bro that is really interesting I never thought of marijuana “weed” as an actual weed that could mess up your crops and clothes! I always thought weed was a cool name for it haha
The most Magical Plant in the entire world
@@grungeisdead8998 nah, thats gotta go to shrooms.
The poppy.. @@grungeisdead8998
I seen this video originally when i was 16. Im 32 now and still come back to it. I remember 15 or 16 years ago this blew my mind. Wow have things has changed.
the strain of cannabis is the fiber producing rope variety. This weed will have very little to no psychoactive effect beyond a headache
Hemp
What you mean to say is hemp but that is not hemp. What you see him pick is Cannabis Ruderalis. A non photoperiod variety that is very low in psychoactive cannabinoids (below 3% THC) that grows by the road side and can be found in large populations all over central and Eastern Europe and Russia.
@@TonyLeith I agree. It grows wild here in North America also. Indian hemp is what we call it. Kansas and Nebraska have a lot of it
I've put a male Hawaiian kush plant and a female dictchweed plant together and then the next harvest the ditch weed was actually pretty good after drying and curing for 3 weeks
thats good to know, i wonder if i can do that with the exo ods i want to use
bs it doesnt work like that
you can tell the guy was really happy when he got hold of the weed
those plants were super young, not even budding yet
If they think it's such garbage then they clearly haven't been brought up to date about the medicinal benefits of marijuana, such as combating cancer and depression, among other things. You don't have to smoke it at all you can turn it into oils and food additives which are good for your body, being high in the process is just a benefit.
yeah I know, the medicinal properties of the THC Cannabinoids are amazing
***** loool ! yes my friend
I was thinking the same thing. Imagine if industrial hemp grew like this in Europe and north america....what an incredible boost for the economies!!!!
or the profits to made by cultivating good quality cannabis ....too busy trying to make $ 30 a month for that "Nonsense"
They were talking about the recreational use though. Not the medicinal uses.
"In the summer months here, marijuana grows like weeds everywhere."
Hmm. Really makes me question why a common nickname for marijuana is... wait for it... Weed!
dude, the last two comments are almost exactly the same. you can't make the last two comments almost exactly the same.
In socal there is a spot in the San Bernardino mountains that grows wild red buds. Seedy but free.
of course for research purposes
well i just told the mrs an kids this year we're off to kazakhstan on holiday!!!!!!
Does this guy think the leaves are smoked too? Those probably don't bud at all but can be used to create hemp.
"Kazakhstan Greatest Country in the World"
Her answer was perfect.
Used to know of a two wild patches about 5 or so acres in the suburbs of mpls mn. and when you smoked it, it didn't taste good or even get you high...more commonly know as minnesota green.
"nonsense" im actually very motivated when high on weed, i just dont do shit that does not make sense
Shows you how when things are illegal people want to do them but when it is legal people are so used to it that they really do not care about it.
for where should i buy my plane ticket?
0:41 yeah right she does that on her way home from work daily!
Okay which road is that on?
Of course it’s Kazakhstan
researching a lot right now!
Did anyone else notice he had only picked male plants? 😂 I wonder if he tried to dry it and smoke it lmfao
🤣🤣
I used to not give a shit about cannabis until my dad's deadly cancer was cured by cannabis oil alone. I don't use cannabis but I'm all about teaching others how to make the oil and cure themselves. It's far from nonsense lady!
Well isn't that steamy hot pile..
Bless you, dear... that oil cured me of alcoholism, cigarette smoking, tobacco chewing, skin cancer, and several prescription narcotics for pain. It helps me with literally everything.
But I gotta give the credit to Jesus, who led me to Colorado.
Maranatha!
@@sisbrawnyIt takes one know one.
Picking too early,no buds.
Also a bunch of males
Now i kinda wanna go to Kazakhstan just to drive by that road filled with wild cannabis thats gotta be beautiful to see
im totally going to kazakhstan!
@marchovens People smoke the buds to get high (which contain the active ingredient THC), and since males are unable to produce these kinds of buds, they are not smoked.
people saying that this is hemp or low thc are wrong. it grows wild all through central asia, northern india. this is actually where lots of the most potent strains come from. kush is named after the hindu kush mountains in northern india. of course the males aren't removed so they don't fruit properly.
in panjab (northern india) it's considered a pest plant, grows for thousands of km by the roadside along farms. only people that use it are poor people and low class people. you can see them by the road side hand rubbing hash. the upper classes stick to booze... lol
I highly doubt that. it's different to have ditch weed and then a plant grown in a controlled environment with fertilizer and tlc by humans, also not to mention cross breeding. there's no telling what that weed even is.
lol the dank smell tells me exactly what it is. remove the males, and you have bomb. it's not ditch weed like we have in na.
+H Majhail I know there's strains that originate in some areas that are dank, but roadside weed like this is usually bunk. There's a good reason it's there, everyone knows it's crappy weed haha.
I don't think so. if they were bunk you wouldn't have the biharis on the roadside rubbing hash from them.
my understanding is that kazakhstan is a good place to go if you want your survival rate to plummet. especially if you speak up about important issues.
where is that place???????
Growing marijuana on purpose by the side of the road in the USA was a famous passtime that was called Guerrilla Farming.
The side of the roads, near off-ramps etc, was claimed to be 'no-mans-land; and so people grew dope without being done for it on their own land.
homeless do that in CA now, its amazing how many i walked by daily til dudes pointed them out, all planted by homeless people
Still is
where is this?
Its been 14 years since you commented so you probably won't see this, but its Kazakhstan.
and where is this again...?
the plants had no buds so they couldn't smoke it right away
Where is this magical place?
it grows like crazy in hungary too
20 mins after the cam turned off, a joint was rolled
OBVIOUSLY- for research purposes
I dont see any buds. And btw, when I smoke weed with my friends, sure sometimes we sit around and just watch the clouds go by, but mostly we bike from house to house looking for food :). Sometimes we even bike to the store just to buy some candy :D.
where can i find it?
i just wana know one thing...WHAT YOU DID WITH ALL THAT WEED BRO?
I'm in luv with Kazakhstan :D
-Contacts Google- Where can I find this place ?
one time i found a lot of it growing in the yard of my SCHOOL IN THE YARD OF MY SCHOOL
Nobody cars, No buds
Where is this....
We're talkin' THOUSANDS
@ballbag35 Whats the difference of a male and a female marijuana plant? Which can you smoke?
i bet the bird at the end smokes
Research . Of course..
Lol Does it flower too or Only the spindly leafy shoots?
were is this
i think ive found some growing in the woods in canada
He stopped and picked up immature plants with no buds, he would need to do an extraction and that would be a lot of effort 😂😂😂😂😂🎉🎉
did she say... NONSENSE?!?! how can she say such a thing
Umm..I think she was generalizing, the non-sense she is referring to is the whole driving around looking for weeds growing in the ditch so you can hope to smoke enough to get something other than a headache...
Hemp sets flowers just like any other marijuana. However, the "legal" hemp strains contain a very small amount of cannabinoids.
OOMMGG were is this place????!!!!!
No wonder no one smokes it, its a ruderalis strain which has minimal thc and you could even see the male plants in his hand. You would have to smoke the whole roadside to get a buzz
depends entirely on the strain
i need google maps to this place
It use to grow wild where I use to live and use to get stoned all the time from thrown away pipe seeds.
wtf!! she just called it a nonsense!
mighty mountains in the end of video
You need to get hold of some of those seeds they would fetch a nice price
Kazakhstan is the greatest country in the world:D
That woman hit the nail on the head
LMFAO I couldn't stop laughing, "arrest God for an illegal grow op" so true, how the fuck can you make a plant illegal.
No.. that lady is completely right..
where is that!
Love that tiny smile around 00:25 lol
*****
you da man
itd be an honor if you checked my channel :]
@HeadbangingGlory where is the place???
bro said middle class
what do you mean no research ? honestly most of the plants in Kazakhstan and kyrgyzstan are male that grow by the roadside for whatever reason that is i dont know . I have been in both of these countries twice
Where's all the buds looks like hemp leaves to me.
No one picks it because it is literally ditch weed.
where is this shot at?
usually we never do it, we wait until its ready and mow the whole field and throw it in small bowls and burn it
I also do it for research purposes.
dude there are no buds
Fact: Marijuana was first found being grown on earth in Central Asia. thats where this man was.
natural weed is not nonsense look at how much it inspires music and the human condition in general, that lady just doesnt understand shes been brainwashed for so long
is it real weed, or just hemp?
“Just for research purposes” 😂😂😂😂
That woman is the smartest and wisest woman of all time. It's non-sense and if we as "civilized" people were hardworking like some other parts of the world there wouldn't be time for that shit.
It's Kazakstan..I am sure life there is a little less glamorous and laid back than it would be in sayyy...New York city?
Whats weird was when i was 8 there was like a whole line of plants that where marijauna plants growing behind my shed along time ago and i had no clue what it was and though it was like weeds or somthing and never knew and now that i look back at it it was marijauna lol growing behind my shed wild ohhh well....lol im 21 now lol and SMOKE WEED !
woah. did i just hear free weed on the side of the road. and this lady is saying its nonsence?!?!
What if people in the US started dropping seeds everywhere and cannabis grew like it does in some parts of Asia?
it does. industrial hemp grows wild ALL OVER the mid western USA. it was the largest cash crop from about 1830 to 1920 or so.
No buds,buddy.
I wish it was like that here in america I'd be smoking to much
That's incredible their mindset towards cannabis. From what that woman made it sound like, it is most definitely a place where I would want my mind to drift.
All hard work & no fun didn't quite convince me to uproot from California. I'll stay here thank you
