The Real Streets of Johannesburg, South Africa! 🇿🇦

- Johannesburg South Africa was not what I was expecting!
It’s okay, I love Africa and encountered no problems, only stares and who can blame them? South Africa has gone through a lot of racism in the previous years and I find this country to be very divide amongst skin colour.Today’s video starts with a 3km walk through Hillbrow towards the Ponte City Building.
Hillbrow is an innercity residential neighbourhood of Johannesburg, South Africa. It is known for its high levels of population density, unemployment, poverty, and violent crime.
In the 1970s it was an Apartheid-designated "whites only" area but soon became a "grey area", where people of different ethnicities lived together. From there I met up with two new friends who showed me around this iconic Ponte City building from top to bottom.
Then I continued my walk through Hilbrow alone.
To conclude today’s video I took a 1 hour taxi around Johannesburg to see the rest of the whole city.
I didn’t find anyone on RUclips that has created a detailed tour of Johannesburg, so I took it upon myself.
I welcome your feedback! And much more to come.

Thank you for watching!
Great adventure good to see Somalia
Chris you are do generous and courageous
Chris i like the way you are sensitive with your questions
I have lived in JHB CBD for one year I can tell you as a white guy it does get dangerous at times. It's very fast paced, good vibes sometimes but often times you get targeted as a white person. I got robbed 6 times, saw 2 people get shot, seen people getting driven over and people getting mob justice. To be honest I haven't fully recovered yet. Now granted my experience in the city wasn't good .
A very high tension area, and probably the most negative energy I've ever felt in any country in my whole life.
Big up yuh damn self Chris real G..
Much love from south africa
Chris I love you from bottom of my heart...due to your bravery.
How do you not have millions of followers? I'm loving the content! If you are ever in San Diego and want to make a video on my railcart let me know.
I appreciate that very much Ryan. One day soon I will be in San Diego and please follow me on instagram @chrismustlist. Then when I'm in your city, send me a message. I'd love to see your ralicart.
Wow chris you are amazing, im south Africans , but i play far away from that place as i can , but believe me when i say Hilbrow used to be beautiful when we were young , im in my 60's but our gov is respondibke fir what jhb has become, love your content, and came across your videos because of your recent trip to Nyabohanse
Nice drive conversation
Criss muss liss…….great channel….found you through I AM MARWA.
Holy Shit! That "ponti" building at the beginning of your movie is the exact same place as the ending scene of that movie Brazil (1985) Directed by Terry Gilliam! It's actually a real place, unbelievable
Chris, children and youngsters n elders love n respect you all across the world
Best content
Hi
Let me tell you if you in Johannesburg then try to visit Mozambique it's amazing place and lot of history you will find
Yes I've been to Mozambique.
THANKS FOR SHARING THIS VIDEO...
Amazing I love it 🙏🏽
Thank you 🙌
Driver is a true south African 🇿🇦🙌
True south African full of hate for his fellow africans
Well I feel like your very brave very much. I been to South Africa and I dare my friends to go there they never been somewhere like SA in their life. Me and you are a different breed we survivors 💪
Love this
It is a very impressive building.
Very unique structure, no doubt!
Chris I must say you are brave.We South Africans Dont Want To Go Near That Place.Its A Crime Nest
I can't stop laughing 😆 🤣
😂😂😂I roam that place like it’s my backyard
Hi...👋👋👋👋I follow your channel for a long time
As far as I know, you have been to South Africa before. Is this a new recording?
No this is a old video, you see some wearing masks. We don't wear masks anymore
The video is from one year ago this month.
I used to play tennis directly underneath the Ponte building and 10 pin bowling inside in the 80s
Sud Afrika is such a beautiful place infrastructure wise, compared with the rest of Africa, it’s so western like shame about the high crime rate.
Chris next time you come to South Africa 🇿🇦 visit Cape Town
Others RUclipsrs will be scare to go there. You make different
I will agree with your statement.
@@ChrisMustListeven us as South Africans - majority of us will never walk there!
We are even afraid of driving through there. You are really brave & thank you for showing us our own country.
🙏💯💯💯💪🎖😇
I watch videos of Johannesburg several times a month and there are rich and mid. class suburbs. There is also a dangers settlement where the people lives in shacks near one of the suburbs.
Good sir
Everything Beautiful
Road to 70K by this Wednesday 👍🏾
I wish I had met you when you were in our country
Hillbrow is safe nowadays it becomes better place to live from now I'm loving it
You are the first person to say that.
I'm brave like u lol
You are the first person to say that. South Africa is one of the most impoverish and dangerous place to live right now.
It’s refreshing seeing tourists not just going to sandton or Cape Town 😂 But @ the same time, we are afraid when tourists go to places like this & are robbed or murdered.
South Africans will carry the blame no matter who committed the crime.
So even though you are brave, we don’t encourage tourists to go to places where the crime is so high & it’s so dangerous.
We’ll rather send you to Soweto to experience our own indigenous cultures & learn about our rich albeit sad history.
I've visited all over South Africa solo without a problem. Crime happens but I don't based my exploration on that risk. Thanks for watching!
Your tour driver was good
Yes Hillbrow is one of the dangerous places it is funny way back it used to be safe
Yes, i've been to many places and Hillbrow was one of the most tense in atmosphere.
👍👍🙌😎
Man, looks like Portland.
Wait you walked in hillbrow 👀
Chris unga refers to cocaine .. flour normally white.. unga is white.. nyeupe is white colour .💕🇨🇦⛄🎄
Boss
I wish one day you go to my country (west Africa)
Where are you located? I'm heading back to Africa in a couple days, but to Kenya and Somalia.
@@ChrisMustList Burkina Faso speak French. But I'm now in USA. My family in Burkina Faso
Please, please Chris take good care of yourself when walking in the streets of Hilbrow, Johannesburg, most dangerous place.
So scary looking down there
🙋🏼♀
Hillbrow was the place to be in the 70,s and 80,s so sad this
❤️💚🖤🧡
I would love to have a couple pairs of them sandals
Is this Germany ?
What do you think Phillip?
It’s clearly New York
@@zacherymooney noo it’s clearly China
No but seriously, this isn’t Germany. It’s South Africa. It got the name because of the Dutch colonizers from wayyy back. And dutch is similar to German. But I must say Philip Germany does not look like this.
soon...
Brave man
How many southAfrica thinks is mind-boggling...to them their black fellow Africans are nuisance but when Apartheid was happening they were shouting Ubuntu...education is key
systim is with corropt presindet
How r u boss
I'm wonderful, how are you?
Fine bro I'm from India banglore
@@raghubullet9377 Nice to meet you!
We have those kind of people here in New Zealand with bags over their mouths. They are sniffing glue to get high.
Quite common in Most third world counties 😊
They are medicating their pain 💔
@@vietkong1 What about heroin addicts on the streets of Los Angeles and New York? Drug addicts are present in all countries, rich or poor because anyone can fall into depression.
@@AG-fg1uk 🇺🇸 the ghetto 🚮
I don't agree with some of the statements your driver made.Why blaming other foreigners? South africans forget that they once lived in neighboring countries when they had apartheid .Why hate on your fellow agricans just because they are doing better than you in your own country?
I don't disagree with you. It's just one man sharing his opinion, and you are welcome to yours.
There's pick and pay in Zimbabwe. There's OK, Spar, Choppies. There are clothing stores as well
It's just cheaper in SA
Doing better where do not lie here what do you say about free hospitalision in SA
Resembles a lot of cities in the states. Belize was horrible as far as infrastructure but this was commentated as if it was the worse place you’ve seen. Have you been to the BRONX??
Or walk around and accuse everyone of wanting to rob them or following them or druging them and I’m gonna call a name because I don’t like him. He did the same thing in Jamaica I was highly offended not saying we don’t have those people or those people are not around and everywhere but damn dude every single video EVERY. Chezc in affect I spelt his name wrong as to not give him feee promo if someone decide to look . Can’t stand that guy.
From the taxi driver's conversation you can tell how the xenophobic mentality is deeply rooted in South Africans mind. The guy is literally heaping all the ills of their incompetence on other blacks.
He's stating facts. if South Africa is "xenophobic", then why are we nanny to 15 million foreigners who are from other African countries?
And of course the liberals will tell you they’re the same as white people, just the colour of their skin is different. 😂😂
Chris u must understand one thing that people like that u met 24:45 . Problem with them is not that they don't get job the problem is they don't do job with dedication and honesty they often are caught stealing , not coming to work on time , lot of stay absent most of the time, they always work slow and demand high wages and salary . They will never tell u all that because it's the reality . They will always blame the foreigners for taking the their deserving job. Even the employer prefers to employ foreigners because they are very honest and hardworking and very very dedicated towards their work and demand less wages and salary. I am telling u from experience i have lived and worked in South africa for 12 years so you can trust me .
Tough call. I was once homeless, and now I'm a self made multi millionaire. When I was on the street 30+ years ago, its because I didn't have a family to help me. Not everyone collecting cans on the street in South Africa or anywhere in the world is a bad person. Victim of circumstances plays a role. That being said, we as humans can never judge someone until we really understand their situation. I also own a business here in Toronto with many employees, and I see some are motivated to work, and others show up late, miss days, etc. So this is a common occurrence across the globe! Thank you for your comment and watching today's video.
@@ChrisMustList ohh, did you earn a lot of money and decided to do something you love which is exploring the world?
What a load of racist hogwash. Employers choose to hire foreigners because of CHEAP LABOR. Most foreigners don't have legal documents and are desperate to find a job, which makes them attractive to employers because they can be easily exploited (paid peanuts but work long hours).
I can't believe you're peddling dangerous racist stereotypes and falsely portraying black South Africans as lazy criminals. We will never heal from the wounds of Apartheid if we still have backward individuals such as yourself.
@@ballsbruh1565 That is exactly what I'm doing. I worked hard for 20 years on my own business, and to celebrate my journey as an entrepreneur I'm travelling the globe.
