Im Brazilian and go to Rio sometimes,i can tell this guy has more balls than me. I would never wanna go up on the favelas and talk with the drug dealers. No way. Good documentary bro.
Nem eu também, c é doido e o cara do video ainda tem a pachorra de falar que lá não é tão perigoso quanto falam. É perigoso pra caralho, nem quem mora nas favela gosta disso man
From watching Brazilian fighters in the UFC and learning some from interviews or showcases about their lives I've had a lot of respect for the people and learned a little about the favelas. The movie City of God "Cidade de Deus" showed a great insight too and to anyone reading this, you should watching this movie, it's great. I'd love to visit one day. What a life you have mate. This is living the dream, even in the tough situations, it's better than going through the mundane rat race which isn't living, it's more of an existence. All the best for the new year, subbed.
I went to Rio this year myself for the first time. City of God is what partly inspired me to visit. It's a great movie definitely one of my favorites. I hope you get to see Rio one day it's such an amazing place.
but be careful not to confuse things, Brazil is not just favelas and Cidade de Deus, the south and southeast of Brazil are very different from Rio de Janeiro and other big cities.
Yes, there is Florianópolis, Balneário Camboriú, foz do iguacu in Paraná estate and many others in south Brazil which is safe and have many natural sights to see
Mate this is the most insane video I’ve seen you do, being in remote areas of the Middle East is insane enough but this tops the lot. You have balls man 😂😂 love it ! Keep them coming 🙌🏼
Haha Rocinha isn't all that. It's one of the safest favelas in Rio. They have a set of codes in there. Basically you can't rob or hurt anybody unless you want to answer to drug dealers who will cut your hands off or off you. The locals are told by the drug bosses to leave tourists alone because they bring tons of money to the economy. There are super dangerous favelas in Rio but, this isn't one of them.
The Middle East and Muslim countries are safe except for a few countries where there’s war going on. They don’t have drug dealers or gangs because that’s punishable by death. West should learn from Muslims.
@@jscott7432 Yeah Rocinha is the Tourists Favela the safest one in Rio for sure, Goto my home of Salvador, Bahia he wouldn't be able to walk around I promise you that
such a good english speaker this man is, i'm brazilian and i can say that is always good see some favela's people evolving and showing a better education bcs in the favelas people very often don't have contact even with the basic education, that's very sad so is very cool to see someone being better and even speaking a second language, it shows that the person have studied (just like me who learned a bit of english mostly by myself) , seeks to be a better person and wants to achieve more than the average people in the favelas even wants to, we need more of this here!!

Will you travel to Brazil or you mean just Hell de Janeiro? That's the only place out of 26 states you irrelevant fools know where to visit in Brazil.

Great video, I’ve only been to Rio once, never stepped on a favela, most people there are fine honest people, but it is dangerous, point made by the interview with the drug dealer with the AR, you have courage, that’s what I call journalistic commitment.

Yes Callum from snowy hills of Glasgow to sunny favelas of Brazil & your completely on other side of the world from Pakistan over 18hr flight ✈️ from Islamabad to Rio (14,000kms!!) bro whatever you do there do it with complete awareness of the surroundings. Stay safe.. ✌🏻
For Rocinha, there are even tourist tours sold at travel agencies in Rio de Janeiro, I would like to see going to the favelas of the North Zone, like Pavuna, Acari, Mare, Complexo do Alemao, so I say it would be a scoop.
Class video mate, subscribed from Belfast! Think I seen your a Rangers man in the Israel videos with your pal, hope your watching the game on Monday somewhere in Latin America from a Celtic fan. You should try get to a few football games in that part of the world, Brazillian and Argentines fans are quality my man, almost as good as us Rangers and Celtic men 😉 keep up the great content mate you deserve a lot more subs!
@@CallumAbroad i laughed so much 😁 Great video btw. Rio is one of the most mesmerising cities I've ever been to 😊 Going to Fortaleza in 2 weeks, I heard it's really dangerous as well, I'm sure I'm gonna love it 😁
The problem with this community is that one can not get there alone. It's too dangerous. One must know someone there to visit it. It's sad because the people who live there are normally families, and they are good people. But I understand that they must control who is coming and going there because of the kind of "business" the gangster do...
Nice video, first I’m seeing you and really enjoyed this. You said you would link the rapper guys info though and you didn’t.. he was nice enough to let you film him
0:27 Im not Portuguese and the least qualified to be giving Portuguese advice ;-) but from what I was taught and having lived in Rio for a bit, when it comes to pronouncing the “R’s” it goes as follows. Pronounced “H” if the letter “R” is at the beginning of the name/word and if it’s in the middle, then you pronounce it the same as you would in English. So Rocinha would sound “Hocinha” and Rio de Janeiro would be “Hio de Janeiro” someone please correct me if I’m wrong 🙈
As a tourist, please always keep in mind: People live in the favelas because they are poor and cannot afford a better life due to a lack of education and opportunities. Therefore, please always be respectful to everyone you encounter there. Do not behave as if you are visiting a zoo with your family on Sundays. Ideally, reflect on your life after visiting a favela. Consider whether you really need the brand new iPhone every two years and all the other electronics. That being said use it to reflect your priorities and life goals.
12:10 the guy translate the question as: "Do you think of yourself as a drug dealer or someone who is in this position out of necessity/likes it?" 15:20 "Is that what you want for the rest of your life?" Answer: Currently I live like this but tomorrow you never know. This is not something you want for the rest of your life but that's what fate has so far provided. He doesn't mentioned his family before being asked about it. 16:36 "He doesn't want to know how much money you make, but if that's enough to provide for you and your family?" Answer: "I make enough money, you need to go getter"
Good content, interesting video, congrats ! Funniest thing for me was the blurring of your translator when he was around the gunman, loved it, totally Incognito 😂
I've been to Rio over 20 times in my life, the place can be dangerous but it's insanely beautiful, the atmosphere is amazing, beach, music, nightlife, If I was a bit younger I'd love to live in Rio de Janeiro for a while.
I also agree. the problem with videos like this one is that ppl think the Rio is ONLY that. I lived for many years in Rio and I NEVER had contact with criminals, guns etc..
@@CallumAbroad Bro I'm sorry but your main focus are the guettos and poor cities/countries, don't try to trick people in what you want them to think. It's your type of tourism it's okay, what's the problem? Just let them accept it or don't, you do what you love, others opinions doens't matter. Edit: You are doing an amazing job, keep going!
@@wupfwupfinger2182 If people think like that is because they are based on videos from internet, if you believe in everything you read on the internet it's your own problem, if there is a mass of people who are getting misleading it's also their problem, the city itself will not be different because people think in different ways, just let it be. Also you can cross with many criminals, even speak with some and you will never know,.
carai borracha, parabens a esse brasileiro, apenas quem mora aqui sabe que não eh facil achar alguem que saiba ingles, principalmente em periferias. Esta de parabens !!!!
Did you know the place where I was born and raised, the place you ate is in front of the school where I did my primary education, based on my own experiences, you can get out of crime, you just need more education and philosophy, for the individual to know how to come out of the darkness and see life from a different point of view. God bless each one of you! 🙌🙏
@@herbertstackmann8145 It's a shame & embarrassing that your country Brazil is the country of favelas in spite of being an oil producing country (Petrobras) & so rich in natural resources Philipppine slums pale in comparison to Brazil's pathetic & miserable immense favelas
Tbh living in a favela is like living in a a small dictatorship within a big country. You'll live peacefully until your interests might conflict the underworld state. People involved with crime think there is some kind of "honour" or "code" but the fact is that crime is about making a lot of disonorable things to both innocent and the guilty very rarely they question the ethical implications of their choices and they try to justify their deeds by putting on "god's will" or "We're doing for our family". Yeah, I get it, there is the police and all. But it's what about what Callum said "What if they decided that they don't like me" people who are hungry for control and they thrive in these areas. Truly sad yet people romanticise it a lot. Yes, I'm Brazilian as well.
Glad you got some nice ppl there to show you. I live in Brazil and i can tell you.. you lost your mind doind that, its not safe at all going inside favelas. Atleast you didnt go futher , otherwise it could end badly. Nice video tho.
The man said BEAUTIFUL but it also Disgusting the way we are living hundreds and hundreds of years later The struggle is really real but We resilient divine by design BLESS.
@@fernandoalcantar4 é o que dizem, mas nunca fui p comprovar, sei que o incentivo ao turismo nas favelas contribuem muito para ninguém mexer com ninguém e fazer a experiência ser incrível 🤩
@@idanmoreira cara vc esta falando coisas que nao sabe, pelo menos aqui no rj ninguem meche com ninguem pq existe um codigo de conduta entre os moradores de favelas e que nao é nada relacionado a turismo, nao existe aqui no rj vc esta dentro da favela arrumar treta e alguem de esfaquear, n tem risco de vc ser baleado, ser assaltado nem nada do tipo traficantes eles n mechem e nem ficam importunando ninguem e meio que cada um no seu quadrado

Was literally in Rio the same day as you, could see exactly where you were standing from the building I was staying in down the hill. Never made it to Rocinha as I’m travelling with my 15 month old son, next time tho 👍
Hey i am going to Rio in february and I'd love to go meet these guys, can you tell me how you got to meet them? Like how did you book the favela tour etc? thanks so much and very good video
he said that when you are born in the favela, since you were little, this is the way you are taught... many are there because of the influence of being born there already
I really enjoyed the content. I know that Rio sometimes bring us more "views" and stuffs because of the favelas, but foreign people should meet more states over the Brazil. Like Minas Gerais, our Capital and many other ones. Brazil is a lot more than only Amazonas and Rio de Janeiro, we got beautiful and historical cities. Actually what happens here in Brazil, is that the most reality of the brazilian guys is pretty different of the those ones who lives in Rio and Amazonas. I'm not talking about culture and this stuffs, just saying that in the most cases what people think about Brazil as a Country, is just about Favelas, Carnaval and Amazonas. We got a lot of different cultures in the same place. I'm invating you to meet our real Brazil!
As pessoas de fora vêem o Brasil com base no Rio e Amazonas? Deveria procurar saber mais sobre o q eles se baseiam aos brasileiros, ou pelo menos do q vc está falando. O Rio de Janeiro é mais pautado por estrangeiros por se tratar da cidade mais turística do país e divulgado no exterior justamente pelas belezas naturais, se tornando a vitrine do país, mas os estrangeiros não são nenhum tapados, eles sabem perfeitamente q a criminalidade e corrupção se estendem ao Brasil inteiro. Se fossemos seguir tua linha de raciocínio, como um ser ignorante, eu diria: "quer ir para um lugar racista, de gente esnobe e fútil? vai para o Sul do Brasil. Já, se quer ir para um lugar escasso e pobre? Vai para o Nordeste. Para um lugar perigoso? Para o Sudeste". Cada uma.
@@Grey044 Irmão, pode até me ofender, mas não adianta fechar os olhos e dizer que oque gringo vê ao nosso respeito é só Rio e Amazonas. É só ver por exemplo, que qualquer filme, desde a faixa etária kids até +18, sempre oque é mostrado em filmes holywoodianos são essas mesmas caracteristicas, violência, favela, carnaval, futebol e Amazonas. Sou patriota assim como você, e amo meu país e reconheço as belezas e peculiaridades dos dois Estados citados por mim. Entretanto, se você tem o mínimo de interpretação vai entender que oque eu disse, foi convida-lo a conhecer nossa real realidade brasileira. O RJ não representa o Brasil como um todo, NEM DE LONGE, tendo em vista nossa grandíssima variação cultural. Favela? Tem até aqui em brasília, mas mostrar que o Brasil é mais que armas, favela e amazonas, gringo nenhum quer mostrar e você sabe disso. Forte abraço pra você irmão, respeito sua opinião, e não te acho um ignorante, so acho que você me compreendeu errado. E outra parada: RJ como vitrine do Brasil? Só na gringa mesmo, porque aqui pra dentro da nossa realidade, pouquíssimos desejam "morar" nessa vitrine.
@@projeto_cana Cara, acorda!!! Eu percebo a tua limitação, quando vc se refere a um contexto tão grande, global, como se somente o Brasil sofresse essa limitação de visão estrangeira. TODOS os país, sem exceções, assim como estados - e o teu comentário só afirma isso - sofrem visões limitadas, tanto de estrangeiros, quanto, de turistas. Pessoas do próprio país, o q é mais contraditório ainda, porque se acha ruim a forma como somos generalizados, por que os próprios brasileiros fazem o mesmo sobre outras regiões, da qual, na maioria das vezes, nem conhecem? Até pontuo isso, brasileiro é o povo q mais fala mal do próprio país, e depois acham ruim o mesmo recebe uma visão extremamente generalizada e boçal, de quem vive fora? A questão, é: Todos nós temos visões limitadas baseadas no q vemos na TV, como: notícias, novelas, depoimentos, reportagens... na internet, pessoas q contas experiências de terceiros, etc., sobre outros países e estados. Somos influenciados o tempo todos em forma de pré-conceito por aquilo q não temos experiências precisas, vívidas. Um belo exemplo: Rio de Janeiro só há o tráfico de drogas e violência? São Paulo só tem a cracolandia e ar poluído? Amazonas só tem índios e pessoas vivendo do garimpo, q vivem em casas flutuantes? Estados do Nordeste só tem pobreza? Estados do Sul, só tem roubo a banco e racistas? Assim como, na Índia só há pessoas na extrema pobreza e pessoas sem higiene? Em países da África, só têm negros e pessoas passando fome? Todos os países da Ásia são radicais, extremistas e só há violência, casamento com crianças e ditadura social? TODOS os países, quando não se tem experiências, conhecimentos, a tendência é q façamos deduções precipitadas com base em míseras informações. Outro exemplo: indianos q usam vestido vermelho, adereços de ouro, pinturas na face, fazendo dança do ventre, q cultuam a vaca com um ser sagrado, é cultural em toda a Índia? Óbvio q não. Essa é uma cultura apenas de quem cultua a religião Hindu, e o Hindu não é a única religião ou, q, todos os indianos tenham q ter uma religião, todos adoram a vaca, porém, assim como estrangeiros tem uma visão sobre o Brasil, e nós também temos sobre diversos outros países, é natural, e nunca será mudado, porque nos incomoda. Quer q seja diferente? Faça diferente. Não adianta reclamar da corrupção se não sabe votar. Somos um país com uma riqueza cultural, étnica, belezas naturais, riquezas históricas e materiais imensa, mas não são somente o Brasil e/ou, "privilegiosamente" o Rio de Janeiro quem exporta a nossa imagem para o mundo.
The interesting thing is that many people from countless countries think that there is only São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro in Brazil, but there are numerous other states with historical riches such as Maranhão, Ceará, Bahia etc...
It's because the reviews being said by other tourists.I've read many reviews from other tourists that visit other states of Brazil and they've said its boring and more fun things are in São paulo and Rio de Janeiro. People always say these two cities have the best crowd and entertainment.Recently a guy from the US went to the north east of Brazil and he fell out with some locals there. He ended up on the news and he left Brazil because he received death threats.
@@BlackFlowBR What's the best state in the north east you recommend to visit?Is it like Rio and São paulo where you can speak to any random stranger and they will be happy to communicate despite the language barriers?is it tourist/foreign friendly?What about night life,do they have those big street parties where people party all night like in Rio and São paulo 🤔I think it called bailes I'm not sure but I've seen videos from vloggers who went to these enormous neighbourhood street parties.
@@taxter1941 Especially that those "parties" have all kinds of drug trafficking and are illegal, because they accept numerous minors, in addition to threats they make to those who complain about the noise

Great video Callum 👍 love u take us to most interesting places & people 🙌 people have a way of connecting with you
Rocinha is the safest Favela in Brazil, As he said at the beginning its the tourists Favela
For Rocinha, there are even tourist tours sold at travel agencies in Rio de Janeiro, I would like to see going to the favelas of the North Zone, like Pavuna, Acari, Mare, Complexo do Alemao, so I say it would be a scoop.
Class video mate, subscribed from Belfast! Think I seen your a Rangers man in the Israel videos with your pal, hope your watching the game on Monday somewhere in Latin America from a Celtic fan. You should try get to a few football games in that part of the world, Brazillian and Argentines fans are quality my man, almost as good as us Rangers and Celtic men 😉 keep up the great content mate you deserve a lot more subs!
brazillians and argentinians are best! view games of flamengo, corinthians and boca juniors
Covering the guys face after 15 min and then uncovering and covering again is the best part of this video 😁🙌
It was requested 😂
@@CallumAbroad i laughed so much 😁
Great video btw. Rio is one of the most mesmerising cities I've ever been to 😊
Going to Fortaleza in 2 weeks, I heard it's really dangerous as well, I'm sure I'm gonna love it 😁
I also didn’t got it …
What a likeable guy! I've just discovered your channel mate!
I knew when I saw your name you'd be either Scottish or Irish 😆
Keep it up!
Ah thank you! Really appreciated 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Honestly the people in Brazil especially the Favelas are the friendliest people Ive come across in all my travels.
💯
This is so incredibly true. The friendliest and most generous people ever.
Superb video this one mate! Keep up the good work
Thank you 🤜🏻🤛🏻
The problem with this community is that one can not get there alone. It's too dangerous. One must know someone there to visit it. It's sad because the people who live there are normally families, and they are good people. But I understand that they must control who is coming and going there because of the kind of "business" the gangster do...
Nice video, first I’m seeing you and really enjoyed this. You said you would link the rapper guys info though and you didn’t.. he was nice enough to let you film him
We agreed to do something different 🤜🏻🤛🏻
0:27 Im not Portuguese and the least qualified to be giving Portuguese advice ;-) but from what I was taught and having lived in Rio for a bit, when it comes to pronouncing the “R’s” it goes as follows. Pronounced “H” if the letter “R” is at the beginning of the name/word and if it’s in the middle, then you pronounce it the same as you would in English. So Rocinha would sound “Hocinha” and Rio de Janeiro would be “Hio de Janeiro” someone please correct me if I’m wrong 🙈
You're right.
@@mig7290 thanks as I wasn’t too sure of myself ;-)
you are partialy right. In other parts of Brasil the ´R¨s go as RRRRR, like Ronaldinho they say in the south or in SP.
Awesome video ! And first time I came across your channel love it fam !
Welcome aboard!
As a tourist, please always keep in mind:
People live in the favelas because they are poor and cannot afford a better life due to a lack of education and opportunities.
Therefore, please always be respectful to everyone you encounter there. Do not behave as if you are visiting a zoo with your family on Sundays.
Ideally, reflect on your life after visiting a favela.
Consider whether you really need the brand new iPhone every two years and all the other electronics.
That being said use it to reflect your priorities and life goals.
Wow that view and the little kitty bless. I love this only few mins in too. 😊
O povo da favela sofre . Além de gente ruim lá tb tem gente trabalhadora .
i´m from brasil and i can tell, rio is another level...lots of beautiful places to go here besides rio...
Mate, I did over 12 years in the British Army and take it from me - you’ve got balls of steel! Hope you enjoy Brazil! 😊
???? Its more dangerous in uk then there
@@theboss9218 lol
@@theboss9218 HAHAHAHA all these "hoods" in the uk wouldnt last a whole day in one of the favelas here in rio. its surreal
Yeah! And non of you’s in the hoods of UK or favelas of Brazil would last a day on the frontlines in Ukraine!
Stop the BS
You dont need to be afraid just respect
Fair play man, another cracking video. Keep up the good work and stay safe
12:10 the guy translate the question as:
"Do you think of yourself as a drug dealer or someone who is in this position out of necessity/likes it?"
15:20 "Is that what you want for the rest of your life?"
Answer: Currently I live like this but tomorrow you never know.
This is not something you want for the rest of your life but that's what fate has so far provided.
He doesn't mentioned his family before being asked about it.
16:36 "He doesn't want to know how much money you make, but if that's enough to provide for you and your family?"
Answer: "I make enough money, you need to go getter"
Really enjoyed this video, good work mate. Liked and subscribed lol
bro this video and views of the favelas, amazing shit man!
Good content, interesting video, congrats !
Funniest thing for me was the blurring of your translator when he was around the gunman, loved it, totally Incognito 😂
Due to his t shirt 😅
I've been to Rio over 20 times in my life, the place can be dangerous but it's insanely beautiful, the atmosphere is amazing, beach, music, nightlife, If I was a bit younger I'd love to live in Rio de Janeiro for a while.
I also agree. the problem with videos like this one is that ppl think the Rio is ONLY that. I lived for many years in Rio and I NEVER had contact with criminals, guns etc..
The problem is some people expect me to cover all of Rio in 20 minutes 😂 Rio’s amazing with lots to cover (in separate videos)
@@CallumAbroad Bro I'm sorry but your main focus are the guettos and poor cities/countries, don't try to trick people in what you want them to think. It's your type of tourism it's okay, what's the problem? Just let them accept it or don't, you do what you love, others opinions doens't matter. Edit: You are doing an amazing job, keep going!
@@wupfwupfinger2182 If people think like that is because they are based on videos from internet, if you believe in everything you read on the internet it's your own problem, if there is a mass of people who are getting misleading it's also their problem, the city itself will not be different because people think in different ways, just let it be. Also you can cross with many criminals, even speak with some and you will never know,.
You are wrong bro but I accept all opinions and appreciate you taking time to watch 🤜🏻🤛🏻
I'm from a Rio favela, awesome video! You got some balls my man
carai borracha, parabens a esse brasileiro, apenas quem mora aqui sabe que não eh facil achar alguem que saiba ingles, principalmente em periferias. Esta de parabens !!!!
Im brazilian guy and this documentary was amazing. I like it
Upload more mark Wilson yes it’s me who says that on tiktok lets goooooooo 😂😂😂😂😂 great work you better see this
Believe me, I see it!!!!! 😂
@@CallumAbroad 😂😂😂👍
This is the first time iv watched you but it wont be the last really enjoyed it. Youv got a set of bawz al give you that
Mirpur looks very different today ! Hehe . Love your videos man, did you take some irn Bru with you to Brazil?
Did you know the place where I was born and raised, the place you ate is in front of the school where I did my primary education, based on my own experiences, you can get out of crime, you just need more education and philosophy, for the individual to know how to come out of the darkness and see life from a different point of view. God bless each one of you! 🙌🙏
As a fellow scot, only a weegie (Glaswegian) ambassador could do this - respect pal. Baws ay steel man.
Amazing video, just as a reminder think you forgot the link the guys details lol
Well done for going the extra mile ,to bring subs like me great content 👍
Thanks 👍 Appreciate you taking time to give it a watch 🤜🏻🤛🏻

Great video Callum. Great to see a fellow West Coast Scot globe-trotting
Thank you for coming here and just showing shii.
Sou do Brasil, Rio, adorei o vídeo pois retratou de uma forma bem feita a realidade das favelas do Rio de Janeiro
Thank you mate
👏👏🙏🙏
@@herbertstackmann8145 It's a shame & embarrassing that your country Brazil is the country of favelas in spite of being an oil producing country (Petrobras) & so rich in natural resources Philipppine slums pale in comparison to Brazil's pathetic & miserable immense favelas
Tbh living in a favela is like living in a a small dictatorship within a big country. You'll live peacefully until your interests might conflict the underworld state.
People involved with crime think there is some kind of "honour" or "code" but the fact is that crime is about making a lot of disonorable things to both innocent and the guilty very rarely they question the ethical implications of their choices and they try to justify their deeds by putting on "god's will" or "We're doing for our family". Yeah, I get it, there is the police and all. But it's what about what Callum said "What if they decided that they don't like me" people who are hungry for control and they thrive in these areas. Truly sad yet people romanticise it a lot. Yes, I'm Brazilian as well.
What a good one this was!
Thank you 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Glad you got some nice ppl there to show you. I live in Brazil and i can tell you.. you lost your mind doind that, its not safe at all going inside favelas. Atleast you didnt go futher , otherwise it could end badly. Nice video tho.
The man said BEAUTIFUL but it also Disgusting the way we are living hundreds and hundreds of years later The struggle is really real but We resilient divine by design BLESS.
i'm from São Paulo, i live close a favela, and the times i've ben in rio never had a courage to go to this place... nice job !!!
tu ta ligado que na favela é mas seguro que no asfalto ne? la ninguem meche com ninguem
@@fernandoalcantar4 é o que dizem, mas nunca fui p comprovar, sei que o incentivo ao turismo nas favelas contribuem muito para ninguém mexer com ninguém e fazer a experiência ser incrível 🤩
@@idanmoreira cara vc esta falando coisas que nao sabe, pelo menos aqui no rj ninguem meche com ninguem pq existe um codigo de conduta entre os moradores de favelas e que nao é nada relacionado a turismo, nao existe aqui no rj vc esta dentro da favela arrumar treta e alguem de esfaquear, n tem risco de vc ser baleado, ser assaltado nem nada do tipo traficantes eles n mechem e nem ficam importunando ninguem e meio que cada um no seu quadrado
@@fernandoalcantar4 isso mesmo, o que eu disse foi o que eu imagino que seja, e p mim tentar adivinhar sem vivenciar não tem como, mas eu imagino isso q vc disse msm, comunidade e assim ninguém meche c ninguém, tipo eu moro perto de uma favela em sp, e entro lá direto pq eu conheço e é bem o q vc disse…
Nice video, im from Brasil and the translator is amazing in english👏👏👏👏
I love seeing black and brown African and Hispanics both beautiful ethnicities
Bielieve or not but this favela is one of the tourist attraction in Brazil.
😥👍
yes
Was literally in Rio the same day as you, could see exactly where you were standing from the building I was staying in down the hill. Never made it to Rocinha as I’m travelling with my 15 month old son, next time tho 👍
Mashallah beautiful video and bro been missing your video s
Hey i am going to Rio in february and I'd love to go meet these guys, can you tell me how you got to meet them? Like how did you book the favela tour etc? thanks so much and very good video
hey my friend, follow brazilian_real_tour.
Com "esses caras", você se refere aos traficantes? Se, sim... não faça isso. São homens perigosos e sanguinários. Não faça isso!!
he said that when you are born in the favela, since you were little, this is the way you are taught... many are there because of the influence of being born there already
I really enjoyed the content.
I know that Rio sometimes bring us more "views" and stuffs because of the favelas, but foreign people should meet more states over the Brazil. Like Minas Gerais, our Capital and many other ones. Brazil is a lot more than only Amazonas and Rio de Janeiro, we got beautiful and historical cities.
Actually what happens here in Brazil, is that the most reality of the brazilian guys is pretty different of the those ones who lives in Rio and Amazonas. I'm not talking about culture and this stuffs, just saying that in the most cases what people think about Brazil as a Country, is just about Favelas, Carnaval and Amazonas.
We got a lot of different cultures in the same place. I'm invating you to meet our real Brazil!
You’ll also find that More international flights go direct to Rio than any other city in Brazil, hence why most tourists end up in Rio.
As pessoas de fora vêem o Brasil com base no Rio e Amazonas? Deveria procurar saber mais sobre o q eles se baseiam aos brasileiros, ou pelo menos do q vc está falando. O Rio de Janeiro é mais pautado por estrangeiros por se tratar da cidade mais turística do país e divulgado no exterior justamente pelas belezas naturais, se tornando a vitrine do país, mas os estrangeiros não são nenhum tapados, eles sabem perfeitamente q a criminalidade e corrupção se estendem ao Brasil inteiro. Se fossemos seguir tua linha de raciocínio, como um ser ignorante, eu diria: "quer ir para um lugar racista, de gente esnobe e fútil? vai para o Sul do Brasil. Já, se quer ir para um lugar escasso e pobre? Vai para o Nordeste. Para um lugar perigoso? Para o Sudeste". Cada uma.
@@Grey044 Irmão, pode até me ofender, mas não adianta fechar os olhos e dizer que oque gringo vê ao nosso respeito é só Rio e Amazonas.
É só ver por exemplo, que qualquer filme, desde a faixa etária kids até +18, sempre oque é mostrado em filmes holywoodianos são essas mesmas caracteristicas, violência, favela, carnaval, futebol e Amazonas.
Sou patriota assim como você, e amo meu país e reconheço as belezas e peculiaridades dos dois Estados citados por mim. Entretanto, se você tem o mínimo de interpretação vai entender que oque eu disse, foi convida-lo a conhecer nossa real realidade brasileira. O RJ não representa o Brasil como um todo, NEM DE LONGE, tendo em vista nossa grandíssima variação cultural.
Favela? Tem até aqui em brasília, mas mostrar que o Brasil é mais que armas, favela e amazonas, gringo nenhum quer mostrar e você sabe disso.
Forte abraço pra você irmão, respeito sua opinião, e não te acho um ignorante, so acho que você me compreendeu errado.
E outra parada: RJ como vitrine do Brasil? Só na gringa mesmo, porque aqui pra dentro da nossa realidade, pouquíssimos desejam "morar" nessa vitrine.
@@projeto_cana Cara, acorda!!! Eu percebo a tua limitação, quando vc se refere a um contexto tão grande, global, como se somente o Brasil sofresse essa limitação de visão estrangeira.
TODOS os país, sem exceções, assim como estados - e o teu comentário só afirma isso - sofrem visões limitadas, tanto de estrangeiros, quanto, de turistas. Pessoas do próprio país, o q é mais contraditório ainda, porque se acha ruim a forma como somos generalizados, por que os próprios brasileiros fazem o mesmo sobre outras regiões, da qual, na maioria das vezes, nem conhecem? Até pontuo isso, brasileiro é o povo q mais fala mal do próprio país, e depois acham ruim o mesmo recebe uma visão extremamente generalizada e boçal, de quem vive fora?
A questão, é: Todos nós temos visões limitadas baseadas no q vemos na TV, como: notícias, novelas, depoimentos, reportagens... na internet, pessoas q contas experiências de terceiros, etc., sobre outros países e estados. Somos influenciados o tempo todos em forma de pré-conceito por aquilo q não temos experiências precisas, vívidas. Um belo exemplo: Rio de Janeiro só há o tráfico de drogas e violência? São Paulo só tem a cracolandia e ar poluído? Amazonas só tem índios e pessoas vivendo do garimpo, q vivem em casas flutuantes? Estados do Nordeste só tem pobreza? Estados do Sul, só tem roubo a banco e racistas? Assim como, na Índia só há pessoas na extrema pobreza e pessoas sem higiene? Em países da África, só têm negros e pessoas passando fome? Todos os países da Ásia são radicais, extremistas e só há violência, casamento com crianças e ditadura social? TODOS os países, quando não se tem experiências, conhecimentos, a tendência é q façamos deduções precipitadas com base em míseras informações. Outro exemplo: indianos q usam vestido vermelho, adereços de ouro, pinturas na face, fazendo dança do ventre, q cultuam a vaca com um ser sagrado, é cultural em toda a Índia? Óbvio q não. Essa é uma cultura apenas de quem cultua a religião Hindu, e o Hindu não é a única religião ou, q, todos os indianos tenham q ter uma religião, todos adoram a vaca, porém, assim como estrangeiros tem uma visão sobre o Brasil, e nós também temos sobre diversos outros países, é natural, e nunca será mudado, porque nos incomoda.
Quer q seja diferente? Faça diferente. Não adianta reclamar da corrupção se não sabe votar.
Somos um país com uma riqueza cultural, étnica, belezas naturais, riquezas históricas e materiais imensa, mas não são somente o Brasil e/ou, "privilegiosamente" o Rio de Janeiro quem exporta a nossa imagem para o mundo.
@@projeto_canaMeu amigo, "Vitrine do Brasil" é o mesmo q cartão postal. Acho q isso está bem claro. O próprio dono do canal salientou isso.
The interesting thing is that many people from countless countries think that there is only São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro in Brazil, but there are numerous other states with historical riches such as Maranhão, Ceará, Bahia etc...
It's because the reviews being said by other tourists.I've read many reviews from other tourists that visit other states of Brazil and they've said its boring and more fun things are in São paulo and Rio de Janeiro. People always say these two cities have the best crowd and entertainment.Recently a guy from the US went to the north east of Brazil and he fell out with some locals there. He ended up on the news and he left Brazil because he received death threats.
@@taxter1941 I assure you that in a matter of being funny, no other state in the south of the country beats the Northeastern states.
@@taxter1941 What I see most on the news is that people from other countries have been killed or kidnapped in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro.
@@BlackFlowBR What's the best state in the north east you recommend to visit?Is it like Rio and São paulo where you can speak to any random stranger and they will be happy to communicate despite the language barriers?is it tourist/foreign friendly?What about night life,do they have those big street parties where people party all night like in Rio and São paulo 🤔I think it called bailes I'm not sure but I've seen videos from vloggers who went to these enormous neighbourhood street parties.
@@taxter1941 Especially that those "parties" have all kinds of drug trafficking and are illegal, because they accept numerous minors, in addition to threats they make to those who complain about the noise

Fair play to you, mate. I've travelled extensively in Brazil and always stay in favelas when in Rio, but even still I tend to leave the guys with the guns to mind their own business.

You are absolutely bonkers Callum. Atleast you are walking in your own footsteps. Be careful 😊
your gona be the hardest man in coatbridge🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂
Rocinha is actually along with Vidigal a very touristic favela
I like the unedited raw footage. Stands out from other over polished vids on the favelas
Outstanding man 😂👏Thank you!
Great Video Callum!
Great content and this guide speaks pretty good English, good on him.
I've never been in a Favela.. but as a Brazilian I don't know how is living in a safety country so our concepts of security aren't the same as a American or a European.. I don't believe any favela is safe here..
you have in every country good and bad places......even in my country I don't recommend foreigners to go everywhere, especially at night
Nowhere is always safe or always dangerous. The favelas are the same in that respect.
Your channel recommended me I loved the video I'm also from Brazil but I live in another state of Brazil I was born in Rio de Janeiro after a while I changed state
Ótimo vídeo amigo, fique seguro 🇧🇷
um bom vídeo para mostrar a segurança do BR.🤣 As armas é so adereços
Damn I really like that shirt with inverted flag cool bros
My boy out there is speaking English VERY well!! 👏👏👏
