Gabe is one of the most underrated, original RUclipsr. I started watching his vlogs 4-5 years ago and since then appreciate his work. He doesn't use any sensational thumbnail or other gimmicks to market his videos.i would love to meet him someday.
The nilgai (Boselaphus tragocamelus) (/ˈnilˌɡaɪ/, literally meaning "blue cow") is the largest Asian antelope and is ubiquitous across the northern Indian subcontinent. It is the sole member of the genus Boselaphus and was described by Peter Simon Pallas in 1766. The nilgai stands 1-1.5 m (3.3-4.9 ft) at the shoulder; males weigh 109-288 kg (240-635 lb), and the lighter females 100-213 kg (220-470 lb). A sturdy thin-legged antelope, the nilgai is characterised by a sloping back, a deep neck with a white patch on the throat, a short crest of hair along the neck terminating in a tuft, and white facial spots. A column of pendant coarse hair hangs from the dewlap ridge below the white patch. Sexual dimorphism is prominent - while females and juveniles are orange to tawny, adult males have a bluish-grey coat. Only males possess horns, 15-24 cm (5.9-9.4 in) long. Also, these animals have been introduced to Texas and there are some hunting videos on RUclips.
I likes the smile on the face of Ashok's brother, the warmth he has on his face on meeting the guy from a country. Where his brother use to works. He feels the connect very well.
I know you can barely see them, but what could those large animals have been?? Never seen anything like them, it's like they were a cross between a horse, a donkey, a deer and an antelope. UPDATE: It looks like it was a Nilgai antelope: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nilgai And if you'd like to see much more of the beautiful temples of Khajuraho, here's my previous video: ruclips.net/video/RT_g0FrV870/видео.html
@@smileawhile3788 Yes, I think it was the Nilgai. It might be a good thing I didn't get too close, those things look pretty intense, especially the males with antlers: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nilgai
@@GabrielTravelerVideos A male nilgai has horns, not antlers, and almost looks like cattle. Nilgais are fairly common in the wilds of central iIndia. What you saw was most likely them.
Rural India is the best! If you go in January time - it’s flying kite season. Best experience ever - flying kites on the rooftops with the kids trying to cut the lines of the other kids kites in the sky over the village 🇮🇳
People: Gabriel is a real gem and a true original and does his thing in a uniquely great, relaxed, and immersive way. Enough with the style suggestions, please. Sheesh
while you were in MP, why didn't you visited Bhimbetkaa , it has paleolithic Rock paintings dating 60000 years old. and kindly refrain travelling forests alone, who knows you might encounter tigers etc.
Hello Gabriel, I’m your new subscriber, watching from Sydney Australia.I absolutely love all your travel videos especially the videos of your Asian travels and your travel throughout India featuring non tourist rural village lives that most people never get to see.Thanks for sharing your amazing travel experience and for the rare footages of rural India.Great work, thank you 👍🙏🏽.
I have a good one for you Gabe. Coming from Agra via air having food poisoning, I was held up in my hotel room in Khajuaho. I peeked out the sliding doors to see a mongoose snatch a cobra off a stone wall. Really exciting. Perfect timing. I don't think you've got over to the Jain temples but do, they're worth it. Happy travels!
Wow Gabe you really are the landrover of youtube you go off road were lesser travelers never ever think to thread, showing us the real rural indian countryside and the peoples historc history and art ,really impressed with your indian travels so far, plus you are not even in the mountains or eastern india yet
A few months ago when I came across Gabriel's videos for the first time on RUclips, I wasn't impressed. Looked quite unpolished and amateurish. I had watched maybe less than five of his videos before I came across this series on India. This series has completely changed my views about his channel and I love it now. The man is a real traveler, where most other travel RUclipsrs are merely tourists making videos for views and the money that it comes with. Gabriel seems to be quite different with a unique perspective towards life and it seems like traveling is a way of life for him. What else would explain the fact that he has been doing this for 25 years (or maybe more), and in the process, probably forgo a lot of things in life that most normal people would value. Suddenly, I have a lot of respect for this man.
Nilgai most likely. More interesting was that fire ritual setup. Those metal spear like things looked like something the tantriks (a peripheral branch of hindu ascetics) would use in their rituals. Those guys could be dangerous if disturbed during their rituals which are done mostly at night and sometimes in godforsaken places like crematorium grounds. But during the daylight they are fine just like any other Sadhus and easily pleased with simple gifts like fruit or a few rupees. You could have hollered near that shack and somebody if there even if disturbed could have been easily pacified with a cold guava juice, just saying!😁 That ride back perfectly captured a time of the evening (dusk) poetically described in Indian literature associated with Krisna as Go-dhuli (that time of the evening when the rays of the setting sun are scattered by the dust in the atmosphere raked up by the hooves of the cattle returning home from a day of grazing) Love your vids
10:00 Maybe you saw a Nilgai, it is a large Antelope size of a cow, they are often spotted in such regions all over India. That's the beauty of offroading, you wouldn't have known such animal exists if you didn't hiked that mountain.
I am a recent subscriber to your channel and just wanted to say hello, and to say that I love your style of travel. You really aren't afraid to explore and get off the tourist track. Keep making this magical content.
It was back in the mid-'90s when I was in that area to observe the full eclipse of the sun in a small village that one of those creatures darted alongside the jeep making it all the more trippy after the 22-hour drive from Pune.
I was born close to Nepal border in a village near Sitamarhi - there was Bagmati river and floods every summer. Snakes used to hang from roof of my child hood home. Recall people catching cobra on their fishing hooks. This was in 60s. Not sure if the area still has snakes in same numbers
That one was an awesome footage of something very different. Another face of India. Nature of that place is incredible. Kudos to your work.👐🏼👐🏼👐🏼👐🏼❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
the animals are nilgai nilgai indian saw a lot of these near Pushkar, the metal things are what Sadhu's use to cook chapati on the fire. great video thank you, we love you
The metal thing is used to call God or sometimes demon not for cooking chapati these Metals are weapons of Devtas lower than God in terms of power probably they used it for some ritual to perform in the jungle at night.
The nilgai (Boselaphus tragocamelus) (/ˈnilˌɡaɪ/, literally meaning "blue cow") is the largest Asian antelope and is ubiquitous across the northern Indian subcontinent.
Except for the odd ominous music, this was a fun video. This is what most of India looks like. It does not all look like those developed cities that some tout here, it does not look like the slums of Mumbai everywhere else either. It is mostly villages and people going about their daily lives.
I couldn't see the animal you were describing but maybe either a Nilgai Antelope or Sambar? The Nilgai also known as the blue bull is the largest Indian antelope and one of the most commonly seen wild animals of central and northern India. Nilgai antelope are found throughout most of India,living in grasslands and woodlands and can be seen with blackbuck in the open plains of national parks. The Sambar is one of the large deer native to the Indian subcontinent, found in habitats ranging from tropical seasonal forests. Sambar prefer the dense cover of deciduous shrubs and grasses in protected areas such as national parks and reserves in India.
@@GabrielTravelerVideos also dont go closer to them for a better shot as they are easily frightened and may harm you. Also langurs appear to me more calm but are much more dangerous than local monkeys.
I am from Tamilnadu state, one of the south indian state. But seeing this country side of india, it reminds & gives me a nostalgic feeling of my childhood days & my country sides in my state on the early 20s.
So glad you mentioned something about snakes. Before you did I was cringing at the thought of one. Did you ever enjoy the sunset? The people always seem so welcoming and kind.
Yeah I’ve been all over India. Seen those Nilgai everywhere. Especially from trains. Seen a cobra swimming in Kerala in Periyar NP and one in Nepal. That one was huge. Just slithered across a trail I was hiking.
Legend Gabriel , just saw your comment on Karl Rock video , love you man , last advice put India's flag on the thumbnail , it will help you trust me 😂😂😂
It feels like you're more happier and chilled in India than Iceland for example. 18:44 Three Gods in one just like the triunity concept in Christianity.. Very nice music by the way!
thank you for always liking my message to you stress reliever you travel vlog my body and my mind is always regenerated after finish watched your travel vlog please continue your good job
As someone who does a lot of birding in bushes of western india, please wear shoes when hiking , take a hiking stick if possible, snakes are ubiquituius also are scorpions, centupedes and large spiders , any most won't be able to spot one before steping on
Yes! Unlike the American rattlesnakes, Indian snakes do not make any discernable sound that we urbanites are attuned to. At least, not some that we can use as a warning. If you hear a "hiss" or something, you are already too close. A long stick to gently tap on the ground ahead of you is a better option.
@@jarjarbinks3193 yes, of the 3 most deadly indian snakes the spectacled Cobra and common Krait will not bite unless you step on them , well the viper is a different nature it is much more aggressive , specially if has laid eggs
Hi Gabriel. Were the animals you saw called nilgai? Are these like an okapi? They have stripes above their rear legs. I saw a few of them on a night safari 6 years ago in Northern India. Amazing!
Bro, i suggest you not to go near such things (which you saw at top of hill). It seems to be a place of saint or may be a place of austerity/penance. Its true that nobody is there now but better u dont touch anything or step on anything to be on safer side.
Those are neelgai, one of the largest antelopes. I think the shack was for a forest ranger and they also had solar panels for emergency stuff. Peacocks and neelgai etc are protected wildlife in India. In Catskill here in NY, forest/ fire rangers often construct teppeees and fire towers that are open to trekkers for expansive views. Just like cobras in India, one need to be cautious here for timber rattle snakes
Gabe, people all around india love the tourist and specially from america, see the enthusiam and real pride in the farmers talk when he was trying to tell you his brother who is an engineer is in america! i think you are missing out on interacting with real locals. Ask around ( the hotel manager or the host or some owner of good restaurant ) about the local attractions which are off the beaten path. India has 2000 yrs of amazing history of great achitechture and innovation(zero was invented here !) , you will find some real gems hidden in some village which is now lost in time .... or ask the local politician ..he will be more then willing to help you with your exploration ( he gets his political capital ofcourse ) !! but again travel is but adventure .. and if you dont interact with people and be curious about there life, culture and food.. travel is not travel but just some dude with a camera filming and moving on!! .. just my 2 cents.. great videos and keep them coming ... i do understand its easier to advice sitting on sidelines, but interaction in india should be easy as they like and appreciate americans.
U r forgetting that India is a huge country...Indian States r bigger than many European countries... India and China always been populated... because of early civilization and fertile land..
@@sandipk2575 No, it's because of matchmaking insanity and it's totally unsustainable to have that many people. When there are water and food shortages, many will die and nature will re-balance this massive overpopulation.
Its Nilgai (Rose) you must have seen. It looks like horse + deer. Its huge and if by accident it comes across a car, it cause a big dent on car. Its a best food source for Gir Lion.
7:18 maybe some sacred place for villagers where they perform rituals basically vandevta ( god/ goddess of Forest) maybe I'm wrong pls correct me if you know.
OPINION: Intrepid Gabriel dares to go where no one else should go (at least not without a gun, or weapon, on them!). It is always tempting to go up to see wildlife at closer range, but ... man, I would never do so (speaking for myself only, not lecturing.)
I like such tourists, who go off the beaten path. True, language can be a barrier in more remote parts of India, but if you speak slowly in English and use Google Translate, you can get through. Real beauty of India is in the villages. After all, 75% of the country is still rural or semi urban.
Hey Gabriel, absolutely love your videos. One small suggestion, if some local doesn't speak English and you really want to communicate, you can use Google translate :)
This is why I like your vids. You show places that tourists do not venture to - back roads, poor underdeveloped villages and areas one would never see on tourists destination charts. I actually find such places more fascinating than regular Tourist zone attractions.
Well Gabriel thanks for exploring the most rural areas. I would suggest you not to visit such shrines of worship in seclusion where you find chimtas or cimṭā( It is a tongs for woods and coals in dhuni or the fire altar. The tongs can serve as a weapon and also as a protection from evil spirits. While bhajans are performed the chimta is used as a musical instrument. Sometimes a pair of tweezers is attached to it.) As well as those white two platforms are samadhis or places where saints were buried, they are holy places for TANTRA worship. These spiritually energised places are often made far away from general residential areas so as to carry on worship of tantra spirituality in seclusion and no disturbances. You sat over it which is considered a very bad omen and I just hope nothing bad goes, as such places are holy and in hindus,spirituality you need to touch such places after bathing etc. Be careful as they can really affect you if you touch them,never sit on them. I know many urban Indians or western ppl don't get it but those who have a bit of Indian spirituality understanding get it. There is no superstitions in it, they are very powerful places and the holy men might get pissed off seeing this. Do take care that solar thing was I guess a gps ground segment or something by google or govt. Take care Gabriel, I know you respect the culture and everything, I just want you to be safe.
@@tube.brasil look these aren't demons as it is a very deep and wide concept comparing it with an abrhamic lens wouldn't be alright this isn't supported in abrhamic religions hence they defame it by using such terms these are of two types 1. mostly to invite or extract power from one of any mother goddess/goddess companion/god/other type good energies 2. It is as you said of demons or bad evil energy invitation to harness that energy But mostly people do the first part but whatever they do,you need to respect it as they are very very sensitive things and a bit of any carelessness or misbehaviour or any bad thoughts etc can lead to bad consequences depending on the nature of power or sin you did. It is suggested hence not to even comment on such things without any prior knowledge, as it may lead to issues incurable to modern science. some Brazilians or many native people practice almost the same by calling ancestors spirits or some energies but I see they are also two types left and right seriously India is also same regarding it The holy book of Hindu you can say a contemporary not exactly but a bit to The Bible is Shrimad Bhagwat Gita you should read it where god krishna says that whichever type of god or goddess you worship,you'll be lead to that energy after leaving this material body, either a dark power or a positive power but If you worship the ultimate hence you may not get things quickly but you will definitely get to me soon. It is very clear that having such powers don't guarantee you salvation but definitely help you with gaining certain powers which we say Siddhi in India. Hence upon gaining that or even before that one must understand that the truth is one , people call it by many names so once final focus should be on it at all times.

India has 2000 yrs of amazing history of great achitechture and innovation(zero was invented here !) , you will find some real gems hidden in some village which is now lost in time .... or ask the local politician ..he will be more then willing to help you with your exploration ( he gets his political capital ofcourse ) !! but again travel is but adventure .. and if you dont interact with people and be curious about there life, culture and food.. travel is not travel but just some dude with a camera filming and moving on!! .. just my 2 cents.. great videos and keep them coming ... i do understand its easier to advice sitting on sidelines, but interaction in india should be easy as they like and appreciate americans.
Nice video Gabriel your all videos are amazing God bless brother.
Goddamn you are on fire Gabe keep crawling.. excellent work!
Amazing India, as the tourism brochures always say...!
Love from Hindustan❤ 🇮🇳🙏
The metal spikes could be cymbals for singing hymns !
India headlines: "Tourist killed by monkeys."
India has all kind of wild animals that u can imagine...and deadly snakes..
@@sandipk2575 The most damaging animal in India is the massively overpopulated one.
U r forgetting that India is a huge country...Indian States r bigger than many European countries... India and China always been populated... because of early civilization and fertile land..
@@sandipk2575 dafuq?
@@sandipk2575 No, it's because of matchmaking insanity and it's totally unsustainable to have that many people. When there are water and food shortages, many will die and nature will re-balance this massive overpopulation.
Pure Original 🔥🔥
I have not seen any other vlogger going so deep inside India, not even desi ones
Amazing view.. beautiful footage ! 👍👍
Tu cand mergi in India nenea Costi ? sau ai fost deja ?
@@_Emisiunea_Cuceritorii_ Am fost si nu a fost prea bine, am niste filme de pe acolo...
@@costitravel Ok am sa le caut. Astept clipurile tale din Cuba.

That was adventurous of you, but very revealing of the country life. I wonder what all those cows are fed.
LOL 🤭😍😍🤪 Perhaps that herd of mysterious animals were the Alaskan Moose looking for love at the Khajuraho temple of 'sensuality', Gabe?
Its Nilgai (Rose) you must have seen. It looks like horse + deer. Its huge and if by accident it comes across a car, it cause a big dent on car. Its a best food source for Gir Lion.
Those were Neelgai. Largest Antelope of India.
Welcome to real India ❤️
7:18 maybe some sacred place for villagers where they perform rituals basically vandevta ( god/ goddess of Forest) maybe I'm wrong pls correct me if you know.
You should have come Mahoba after Khajuraho , this town is also have some old temples .
Maybe that was a weather station. On the hill.
Go to Patalkot in Madhya Pradesh. it's mysterious. rest you can find on internet
Hey man.. good to see you back in India
only gab will visit places like this..awesome man.
another one would be Mr. Harald Baldr
@@obeycorruptgovernment-else2628 true, but i think bald and bankrupt is better..
@@Hari-vg3gy Really? I've never seen Bald trek up remote hills and mountain ranges like Gabe and Harald frequently do.
Instrumental is so calming
Always love your videos. Laid back but you stand your ground.
The Russel’s viper blends into stony gravel and will not warn you if you step on it!!!
OPINION: Intrepid Gabriel dares to go where no one else should go (at least not without a gun, or weapon, on them!). It is always tempting to go up to see wildlife at closer range, but ... man, I would never do so (speaking for myself only, not lecturing.)
10:54 You looked very tempted to get inside there.😄
I like such tourists, who go off the beaten path. True, language can be a barrier in more remote parts of India, but if you speak slowly in English and use Google Translate, you can get through. Real beauty of India is in the villages. After all, 75% of the country is still rural or semi urban.
i agree 100% , real india rural india hai. urban to pura disconnected hai, i am saying as an urban citizen. rural india is peace
Hey Gabriel, absolutely love your videos.
One small suggestion, if some local doesn't speak English and you really want to communicate, you can use Google translate :)
1027 its a rural weather station , there are numerous across india , used to track weather and precipitation
That makes sense, thanks.
This is why I like your vids. You show places that tourists do not venture to - back roads, poor underdeveloped villages and areas one would never see on tourists destination charts. I actually find such places more fascinating than regular Tourist zone attractions.
the best India.. just pure nature
Love your videos! And especially leaving politics out thanks for that 👌
Well Gabriel thanks for exploring the most rural areas. I would suggest you not to visit such shrines of worship in seclusion where you find chimtas or cimṭā( It is a tongs for woods and coals in dhuni or the fire altar. The tongs can serve as a weapon and also as a protection from evil spirits. While bhajans are performed the chimta is used as a musical instrument. Sometimes a pair of tweezers is attached to it.)
As well as those white two platforms are samadhis or places where saints were buried, they are holy places for TANTRA worship.
These spiritually energised places are often made far away from general residential areas so as to carry on worship of tantra spirituality in seclusion and no disturbances.
You sat over it which is considered a very bad omen and I just hope nothing bad goes, as such places are holy and in hindus,spirituality you need to touch such places after bathing etc. Be careful as they can really affect you if you touch them,never sit on them.
I know many urban Indians or western ppl don't get it but those who have a bit of Indian spirituality understanding get it. There is no superstitions in it, they are very powerful places and the holy men might get pissed off seeing this. Do take care
that solar thing was I guess a gps ground segment or something by google or govt.
Take care Gabriel, I know you respect the culture and everything, I just want you to be safe.
In Brazil we have something similar.. Places of witchcraft, full of demons.
@@tube.brasil look these aren't demons as it is a very deep and wide concept
comparing it with an abrhamic lens wouldn't be alright
this isn't supported in abrhamic religions hence they defame it by using such terms
these are of two types 1. mostly to invite or extract power from one of any mother goddess/goddess companion/god/other type good energies
2. It is as you said of demons or bad evil energy invitation to harness that energy
But mostly people do the first part
but whatever they do,you need to respect it as they are very very sensitive things and a bit of any carelessness or misbehaviour or any bad thoughts etc can lead to bad consequences depending on the nature of power or sin you did.
It is suggested hence not to even comment on such things without any prior knowledge, as it may lead to issues incurable to modern science.
some Brazilians or many native people practice almost the same by calling ancestors spirits or some energies but I see they are also two types left and right
seriously India is also same regarding it
The holy book of Hindu you can say a contemporary not exactly but a bit to The Bible is Shrimad Bhagwat Gita
you should read it where god krishna says that whichever type of god or goddess you worship,you'll be lead to that energy after leaving this material body, either a dark power or a positive power
but If you worship the ultimate hence you may not get things quickly but you will definitely get to me soon.
It is very clear that having such powers don't guarantee you salvation but definitely help you with gaining certain powers which we say Siddhi in India.
Hence upon gaining that or even before that one must understand that the truth is one , people call it by many names so once final focus should be on it at all times.
