Tracking Down Serbia's Danube River Pirates
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 июл 2016
- VICE Serbia explores how pirates, mostly through deals made with international boat crews, illegally load off oil, ores or fertilizers that they later sell on black market. Such activities are often followed with great risks and violence between rival gangs is quite common.
The Danube flow through Serbia is 600 kilometers long and a lot of international transport goes along the river. Serbia has been blacklisted by a number of international companies because of illegal river trade or, more commonly said, piracy.

This is NOT piracy, it's smuggling.
I'd bet they do raiding and human trafficking aswell on those boats, so probably piracy aswell. But they are covering smuggling in this episode yes.
@@unknownentity8256 you bet but you know sh*t, no, there is no raiding or human trafficking.
@@FilK79 Why not?
@@unknownentity8256 because I been there several times and have family living close, and never any human traficking or pirate style raiding was known. There was human traficking only during times of Ceausescu in Romania and my mother even worked for UN to receve the Romanian refuges escaping communist rule there and comming to Yugoslavia, but that was in the 1980s in totally other context. PS:Sorry because of my language in my earlier comment.
This is black marketeering and tax avoidance, it is NOT piracy.
this is agorism! :D
this is homosexuality
this is illuminati
this is sparta!!
if only certain crew are aware/bribed and weapons are used, it's pirating.
"It's not like you board a ship with guns and threaten the crew. No. It's all prearranged."

So why was the pirate at the beginning talking about the possibility of a shootout, who is there to get in a shootout with? This is basically just large scale employee theft, the "pirates" are just fences.
the serbian hipster will be shot in the ass one time
+Collin Hennessy theres always a chance of something going wrong in crime
CursetheVandal True, but there isn't always the chance of being shot at, and murder tends to bring a lot more attention from the authorities than theft.
idk about that people get shot where I live over looking at someone wrong no crime besides the murder . These people are also on the water they most likely just dump the bodies there and move on
"turim hi na kurac" ahahahaha
"Hey cousin, it's your cousin! You wanna go siphon some oil and go bowling after?"
HAHAHAHAHA I started to instantly read that with Romans voice in my head.
17:56 you ask the man a question, which he gives you an answer to. Then you say "OFF THE RECORD" and ask about the same subject again, then you go ahead and use the footage for your report?
Have some professional pride... Be an honest reporter, that means being honest with the people you're interviewing
Copypasta from another comment: It was translated wrong.... He never said "off the record." He just said "in your experience."
Ah, thank you.
I'll leave my comment up so others can see your clarification on the mistranslation
Well, actually... he said both... the exact sentence was "iz vašeg iskustva, kako biste rekli nezvanično", which most people would translate to "based on your experience and speaking off the record", though to be fair, "nezvanično" does not really holds the same weight as "off the record", it's more like "unofficially", if that makes any sense... source: native Serbian speaker :)
I second that!
A honest reporter ? Did ya find any yet , cuz thats like a paradox ! It's like saying can you be more like a jewish nazi.
watching him change the tyre was probably the best part of that piece.
I honestly have never heard of pirates over here, ever. This, wtf?!?
Nisam ni ja

Thanks for the documentary Vice, it was really well done! Great subtitles and great filming in general. Showing all the parts, and getting inside the important players of this "game". Unfortunatelly, comments under your video are always crap...
+Turin Turambar No. Another video that is unusual to people and the narrow-minded noobs will start bitching. People's lives are so shit that they just want to see violence and illegal activities.
If you are not a native speaker then the subtitles were great🤣🤣🤣
17:46 So he makes an off the record statement, and you put it in a video; such integrity Vice.
He also said "Незванично"-Nezvanicno=Unofficialy(Off the record)
Absolutely. They either need to update their transcription, or delete that bit. I know Vice like to be 'edgy', but that's not taking licence, that's abusing journalism.
MrTater122
bruh vice is literally gay
I regret to not have travelled trought out the Balkans, I made it as far as Dubrovnik only and Korcula
you saw the touristy stuff then, I'm not sure going further South would be that fulfilling for you to be honest mate, whole Balkans is downhill after Summer in Dalmatia
The City itself isnt really that dangerous at all. Actually we went there with school and its really nice.
15:38 wu tang graffiti in Smederevo, Serbia. This planet is truly one big global village.
Serbia must have good neck protection
Yes the world is full off morons everywhere.
Ranko Orovic fuck you. wu tang are cool.
Whats wrong with that?
Yo ho yo ho, a Triad's life for me
kako bre oni svi pokazuju mesta a dovoljno je policiji da samo vidi ovaj snimak i sve je gotovo
for those of you think that the are is dangerous. It is not at all. these aren't the classic pirates you are thinking that board a ship and steal all the cargo and money. These people are in business with the people working on the cargo ship and everything is done through deals. They do not harm any civillians or cause any problems to anyone. Smederevo is actually quite nice.
love the Tibia shirt. I've been playing that game since '95
Epic tire change scene at the end!
Good video thank you vice, Croatian here!
Respect to this guy
its not piracy if the captain calls u to buy his cargo
How do you thinks pirates sold the goods they had acquired? They didn't have phones but still
Vice has nothing better to report on so they turn to clickbaiting and bullshitting.
if you watch to the end, the presenter tells you that...
You can find pirates in their government..
very cool video
but what happens when the boats arrive at their goal and it turns out that cargo is missing or not there at all???
How are the boats and the crews able to sell the oil on their boats without it being noticed by the overlooking companies? Who are the boats delivering the oil to? Who are the captains stealing from if they sell the onboard oil to the ''pirates''? I don't understand the concept of how exactly this works.
This is so tense, had to stop after about 5 min
What a load of bullshit
After watching the full 25 minutes I'm highly disapointed
his hue hue
Yup... Same here. I was expecting armed boarding of ships, not some menial buying off of scraps.
ik I though I deal would go down
that's vice for you. click bate title with little substance.
It almost as if having a transparent title would dissuade anyone from watching it.
Jebote ovo ko da je zapelo u 90ima...
"Of the record, what is your personal opinion?" *keeps on recording*
Reading subtitles sucks hard guys!
Vice docs and chill
Got the pirate ad for geico on this lol.
the geico ad before this video was the worst 30 seconds ive seen
The subtitles make them sound way more serious, but in fact, they all speak a bit slangily. :)
st. pauli :-) pozdrav iz hamburga
thise vice guy does really good documentarys i like him
Oh its that hipster again, come on vice, give us more Simon!
its,,actually,,jerome,,boateng
Serbian kinda sounds like a mix of czech and portuguese.
lol i went more for polish and portugese, but slow portugese that is 😂
have you ever heard portuguese?
Yes i have heared alot of portugese it's a beautiful language and i said Serbian KINDA sounded like portugese.
Yes probably the guy
I know how they speak in the eastern block, blin.
I'm starting to feel as if there are no cool pirates left in the world....
Nice outro *8 )
the subtitles could have used a bit more loving, they are hard to follow
Technically they're not pirates, smugglers maybe..
flat tire was scariest part
oh my ancestors could of been river pirates. the chance is nice to know
Heeeeey my dads from Serbia!
jebote zivot prvie video koji sam vide na viceu i i8ma serbia u njemu
Serbian pirates be like “a yo ho ho and a bottle of Rakija”
Last time I was this early.....
I was able to think of a good joke
Zivim u Smederevu. kakva crvena zona, o cemu pricas? Opisao si kao najgori kriminalni grad sto uopste nije istina...
Idle Idle a dobro, Vice inace napuše situaciju zbog gledanosti. Svaku njihovu reportažu treba posmatrati sa dozom rezerve.
Pa nije kriminalno najgori, ali sve ostalo jeste, mogucnost zaposljenja, zagadjenje i sve ostalo. Nazalost moj grad ali teska srca moram priznati da mi se gadi..
Black Cat, White Cat =)
♫"Serbian pirates we"♫
Im Serbian and what pirates are you talking about? They are smugglers , not pirates also when smederevo was dangerous city? Wtf is wrong with western media...
Edit: Also subtitles are very bad
That is kind of like asking your drug dealer neighbours if you can film them selling and buying whatever it is they sell..........not really likely to happen.
I went to a store to speak to a pharmacist that had lied to me and as soon as she saw me press "record" on my phone, just to record the conversation she changed what she said and told me I had canceled my order.
Was that yellow things in the river an oil?
GOLUBE CAN YOU PLEASE MAKE A VIDEO ABOUT SERBIAN TECHNO SCENE BEOGRAD VS NOVI SAD ETC? IT WOULD BE NICE TO SEE IT GET DONE...KEEP UP
Fuck techno music. Long live Turbofolk.
This is some Far Cry shit right here when he switches to GoPro
I'd make sure the captain and even the ship crew had a financial stake in succesfully delivering the oil, so that they don't just sell that shit to pirates and pretend they got robbed.
We don't have pirates on Danube, just smugglers.
I liked this documentary cuz i didnt have to read the subtitles
pirates of the danube
Vice is great. REAL stories. REAL field investigative journalism. CNN, Fox, MSNBC. take some fucking notes on how to do REAL news.
So, BASICALLY, we need to start buying steel from Russia again lol
VICE only in the past few days in search of the story of Serbia, why I do not understand. Or many of the Serbs, is probably to work the VICE? However, Even if I VICE went the beautiful reportage, I think that there is a need to change its editorial focus.
A drone would make this guys life a lot easier....
Danube - Sandstorm
sly wu tang at 15:37 lol
wow it sounds like Russian.I could understand more than half of it!
Vice, make a video about recent news on Hillary and leaked emails! And Julian Assange commentaries on this situation. I don't even remember, why I am still a subscriber to you! I guess, because your reports weren't biased back then...
They wont as they all support the Pantsuit War Criminal. Most of the sell out Democrats didnt even blink when they heard about the emails and DNC corruption...hence Vice wont touch the subject with a 100ft pole.
No way they're liberal as fuck and most likely receive advertisement funding from the DNC.
Here's your video:
Clinton did the same think as Rice and Powell did with their e-mails. Hackers broke into them. No proof of a crime was found.
And nobody died.
Or was that too biased for you?
fucking right is this guy really wearing a tibia t shirt! epic!
Is it the specific dialect or were a few of them not speaking Serbian at all(?)
Its all serbian
14:33 Typo "I'l"
Why is everything gray in eastern europe?
Serbia is very eastern. It's Southeastern Europe, closer to Turkey than it is France.
Dude look up eastern Europe, just look it up. No one considers Serbia to be a western country. France is a true Western European country, like Germany or Spain. Turkey is a Eastern European country, like Serbia Ukraine, and Romania.
Generally, all factors considered, people categorize it as belonging to southeast Europe (Balkans), with the northern province Vojvodina belonging to central Europe, which is way more accurate culturally. If you're gonna separate Europe in half based on culture, it is still east, so you are still right but for the wrong reasons. The distinction is more prominent in Europe i guess.
Serbia is not part of the group of internationally-recognised countries that Eastern Europe is comprised of. It's classed as Southern Europe.
Yeah, that sounds right.
dang
off the record? That's some shady shit there mate.
DIMITAR BERBATOV???

Haven't heard that name in years
kittelsbach pirates best pirates
its not actually pirating, they are buying the stuff. its more like smuggling or black market
Look up the youtuber "Jack Snow" and look at his playlists
wtf
it's some guy that saves a bunch of little girl videos.
Well, we're all on some FBI lists right now.
I Didnt consent to seeing that shit!
See old fogey's, one of them Hipsters can actually change a flat tire. If just one of them can, there is some hope for the rest of them.
it would be the eastern euro one too hahaha
I am from Serbia and this is the first time that I hear about so called ''Danube Pirates''.I mean there are smugglers but term ''pirates'' is to much.This is scripted as fu*k..
There really is no pirating going on.
Dear Vice, you used to be such an amazing outlet for non mainstream news but anymore you are just clickbait......nobody would watch this if it didnt have pirates in the title. I understand "Organized crime on the Danube" (or something closer to what the actual story represented) wont bring as many views but think of your reputation........vice used to be a decent outlet for non mainstream news, now its just clickbait articles and strippers for the hbo show.

15:37 lik pokazuje simbol velike albanije. Sram vas bilo.
To nije simbol velike albanije vec simbol albanske nacije. U potpunosti se slazem da je provokativno.
Ukoliko si obratio paznju na taj kadar, primetio bi "grb" ili logo rep grupe "Wu Tang Clan" ciji je "pozdrav" slican kao simbol te imaginarne "velike albanije" dakle s time na umu, siguran sam da ovaj momak nije pokazao simbol imaginarne "velike albanije" vec iskazao podrsku "wu tang clan" i pozdrav fanovima te rep grupe. Ako mi ne verujes, guglaj "Wu tang clan hand gesture" i videces i sam.
