    For those who have never been to the Bronx, this video doesn't represent the entire area. It focuses on 149th Street and 3rd Avenue, where few individuals seem too comfortable in their situation. While I want to help, I can't. U see the police in the video keeping everyone safe and having him under control. The Bronx is a culturally rich place with a lot of diversity, and if you don't bother people, nobody is going to bother you. As you can see, I'm walking and filming with my phone on a gimbal, and nobody approached me. The Bronx is a land of freedom where you can do whatever you want, a place I truly admire and enjoy. My intention was to add variety and action to the channel, not to offend anyone. I love the Bronx and plan to film more beautiful places. Check out this recent video from one of the richest neighborhoods in the Bronx: ruclips.net/video/1NYFJ6-T4Ik/видео.htmlsi=gEWKgrjUyUfV1MWl

      Most Dangerous what? that's a stretch. Lived in the Bronx most of my life. 95% of the Bronx is a walk in the park, and I mean that. A title change is in order buddy. You ever grew up in the Bronx during the Apex of the Crack era? shhheeeeeeeeetttt!!!

      I’m glad you clarified that. However that title is misleading. I hope when you eventually visit the dangerous hood of Brooklyn such as Brownsville, ENY, Canarsie, E Flatbush, Crown Heights. Hope you’ll title it the same. Cause so far you’ve only been to the “nice” areas of Brooklyn. Covered some areas twice even.

    I’m from Queens and have lived in NYC most of my life. Currently live in Brooklyn. I’ve seen an armored car get robbed, seen people running down the street covered in blood, seen people dying on the sidewalk, seen footage of a friend being murdered in the street, saw a man get hit by the train, have slept in parks and and befriended homeless people, have had both guns and knives pulled on me, have heard screams echo down the street and have seen muzzle flashes that were far too close for comfort. I’ve seen some crazy shit in my life. There have only been two times where I found myself in a neighborhood at night and was like “mmm… I might die if i don’t get tf outta here right now”. Both were in the Bronx 😂

      @nerderspree 2 месяца назад +9

      @@magamaga1827 Yeah, I was a little kid in the early 90s. I bet a bunch of Brooklyn was wild back then. I did hang out in East NY plenty of times in my 20s and never really had any problems, but I knew people there. Same with Brownsville. When you know people it's generally alright. But I'm sure it's not as crazy as it once was. I also lived in Bed Stuy for a few years, right near the slave theater. I was a junkie at that time and definitely got into some sticky situations because of that, but it's becoming gentrified these days. Surprisingly, I've seen some wild stuff in Canarsie, which generally isn't a bad neighborhood. That's where I saw the armored car robbery, which I'm sure there are articles about. Happened right near where I worked. That's also where I saw someone running down the street covered in blood. I was standing outside of my job smoking a cigarette. The person was screaming and chasing after another person, definitely the one who hit them. I'm guessing they hit them in the head with something and all the blood came from their forehead, which tends to bleed a lot. Something similar happened to me when I was a kid. Got bit in the eyebrow by a dog and I bled so much that my whole face was covered in it and it was all over my clothes. Was a gruesome sight but the bite wasn't even that bad. Didn't even require stitches.

    My mom worked on 3 Ave and 149 St Alexander's, where l went after to school to pick up her up. She worked at the counter where you would get a sandwich and milkshake. When she got off work late at night we would sometimes walk home without a care in the world. Sometimes she would forget to lock our doors, but there was nothing to worry about. Yes! in the 50's and 60's it was safe and a clean area. With tears in my eyes, and a broken heart for what has happened. Many important people came from the Bronx- just to name a few, Al Pacino, Ralph Lauren, Lauren Bacall and many, many more. l lived in a beautiful Building with a beautiful lobby and a 24 hour doorman on the Concourse. The Concourse was the Park Avenue of the Bronx. Sunday's my friends and l would go to the Loews Theater on Fordham Rd, and afterwards we went to Jahn's ice cream parlor for the kitchen Sink which was a Banana Split Sundae

    If you want to do this kind of video in another section of NYC, I suggest you do that in the Canarsie section of Brooklyn which is the place I grew up in, it used to be a Mafiosi neighborhood of italians and jews. Now it has become a haven for the east coast chapters of the bloods and crips. You won't find more history anywhere in NYC. The place has a VERY storied past. The movie Goodfellas was about the Canarsie "crew", which to date is recognized as the most violent crew in the history of the Italian mafiia in the U.S. . As kids growing up there, we used to come across dead bodies in Seaview Park. It wasn't anything which shocked us although it should have been. It was a quiet middle class neighborhood on the surface with a severely violent under current.

    Bless us and save us!!!!😱 I can't believe I walked through these very streets while growing up in Mott Haven over sixty years ago that the entire districts, especially Fordham Road, turned the Bronx into a smut and filth borough today. How can it be that Fordham was once a popular shopping site where you could spend the weekends with your family visiting stores, eating in small delicatessens, and participating in social street activities all year round? Watching this upload is not only shocking, but it fills my heart with despair to find nothing but disorder and mayhem among the neighborhoods that were pristine at one time, with residents who rigorously precedented in maintaining the quality of life in the Bronx. Judging by the current outlook of the streets and blocks, I wouldn't go near my old neighborhood if you promised me room and board at the Waldorf because it comes as no surprise that an invader would cut my throat to apprehend my $10.00 watch.

      Hey that's a bit random but here it is: about ten years ago I had my first and only stay in NYC. We tried to go to as many different boroughs / areas as possible but six days weren't enough to cover it all. Mainly Manhattan, part of Brooklyn, Staten Island and we barely set a foot in Harlem, not even knowing we were there. My wife is from Wenzhou and I realized a lot of Wenzhounese had settled in Queens, so if you have any tip as to where to go next time, which place to see and where to meet the locals, etc I'd be glad. If you're not from there, just ignore this haha. Cheers from Paris.

      "So-called human faults are false labels, not laws, so we don’t have to accept them as belonging to us and consequently act them out. To believe that we can’t help ourselves because we were created with these failings or sins would dishonor God. Mrs. Eddy says in Science and Health: “Man is incapable of sin, sickness, and death. The real man cannot depart from holiness, nor can God, by whom man is evolved, engender the capacity or freedom to sin. . . . In divine Science, God and the real man are inseparable as divine Principle and idea” (pp. 475, 476).
      As the perfect reflection of God, man expresses divinely derived qualities such as discernment, patience, obedience, humility, love, and the desire to be useful and serve God in a way that blesses all.' Christian Science Journal

    I visit my sister who lives in the Bronx near 171st & Washington Ave. I’ve never felt scared. It indeed looks this way,and most people leave you alone minding their business. However, with that said, it is an urban jungle. Ugly landscape, littered streets. Crackheads prevalent especially early mornings on Tremont Ave. Most crimes happen at night time as with any other city worldwide. Guns are a common problem with young males. There are pockets of old italian neighborhoods scattered throughout the Bronx, but those are slowly dying out because the younger generation of Italians don’t want to run the family businesses. Gentrification is currently happening in 2024, forcing out many Hispanic and native African residents to leave due to skyrocketing rent prices

    Hi from the UK! I remember a friend flew there for business. He rented a car and drove into the Bronx completely by accident. It was 02:00 am and he got completely lost driving round in circles. No sat nav of course. He didn’t feel safe enough to stop and ask for help, found his way out eventually, but admitted he was panicking!
