@@davidray4128Sadly, America is broken. On an almost daily basis there is footage of yet another city or state overrun with drug addiction.
Tourisn has collapsed. I'm in Europe and we've had many reports stating that it is dangerous to visit there. We are also seeing a barrage of ads telling us to holiday in America. The answer is a resounding no.
The US is a third world country. Trump did nothing for 4 years, especially during Covid, which spread and killed on his watch. Republicans won't address the issue at all. It's time to elect a strong willed Democratic government, and demand that they send the army in to calm this disaster. They want many rehab facilities to be built or established in the millions of empty warehouses around the country. Until then, nothing will attract visitors.
I thought the same.
Even before opioids philly was rough my sister went to college in North Philly and I told her I'm not sleeping here when I visited I hopped a train back to Jersey
Why are they demonetizing this? Tyler is out here telling actual truth.
Censoring reality helps YT agenda. Its another democrat run poophole. Bad look.
demo- figure out the rest
You just amswered your own question
@@HATECELL oh nuts
RUclips is all about the shiny tech dream. All is good, we're all influencers here, we're cyber social, happily enjoying and creating content, living the modern digital connected live. There is no place for the truth here. They'd rather only have mindless influencers with brand deals
I started doing drugs since my teenage. Got addicted to heroin, spent my whole life fighting heroin addiction. Got diagnosed with cptsd. Also suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Not until a friend recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.
Can you help me with the reliable source 🙏. I'm 56 and have suffered for years with addiction, anxiety and severe ptsd, I got my panic attacks under control myself years ago and they have come back with a vengeance, I'm constantly trying to take full breaths but can't get the full satisfying breath out, it's absolutely crippling me, i live in Germany. I don't know much about these mushrooms. Really need a reliable source!! Can't wait to get them.
YES very sure of Dr.benfungi. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
How do I reach out to him? Is he on insta
I would like to know from those who have solved PTSD and anxiety, if they have solved it definitively and how to understand what quantity of psilocybin to take and when, for how long. And can you really heal without having an addiction?
Thanks to everyone for helping me understand, I want to understand if it's
something that can help me solve the problem (I have c-ptsd)
Does he ship? Can he deliver to me here in Barbados 🇧🇧
I grew up here, got stabbed in my right side by some crackhead at 12 yr old for my bike, kept the bike and the knife in the end but I literally had to join the marines just to get out of Philadelphia, happy someone’s shedding more light on the issue
I’ve never seen an area so devastated by addiction. It almost seems like this is fictional. This is terrifying and heartbreaking at the same time. Wow.
This should not be happening in America but it is... in EVERY city. Maybe not at this level but things are getting bad...
@@Biggeo7 Not like this in every city, not like this no way
@@denon593 not as extreme like this, but trust me, I travel to about 20 different cities a year for work and everyone has an area that’s just downright scary.
@@Biggeo7 Got to admit this was a little worse than the average bad part of most towns
What wealth inequality and an apathetic federal, local, and state government looks like. Even worse countless "reforms" have been tried but the reality is the money allocated to helping these "types" of people is almost ALWAYS embezzled. Legitimate charities like the Salvation Army get overrun. Affordable housing almost always gets blocked or bought out by major investment groups. In the end nothing EVER gets done. If you want an even more brutal pill to swallow. This is the end result of shipping hundred of thousands of jobs oversea's. Every economist will chime in and say this or that. But removing a source of livelihood ALWAYS hurts the neighborhood.
They just don't care because they don't live there.
Shakor is an excellent guide/host/what-have-you. Would love to see him do more type of content like this
after walking that street i would throw my shoes and clothes in a fire pit and have someone use a pressure washer and bleach on me
@@commiesnzombies If I had the power to steamroll that whole damn city, arrest every criminal, get rid of every needle, and rebuild a new one, I would.
Most drug dealers know their city. So I wouldn't expect less. It's a disgrace RUclips are making money off of touring a sick city. How about use that RUclips money and help the city. Period. This guy's a douche.
That city is like a 3rd world country
@@commiesnzombies YOOO
thank you for treating my fellow fentanyl addicts with compassion. We do recover. I'm a year and some change sober. I was on like 5 different hard drugs for years. and an Opiate addict for 15 years.
Praise Jesus, I'm glad you're still here,🙌♥️
Must’ve been hell trying to get off those, my uncle passed of a fentanyl overdose so I’m thrilled that someone can recover.
Congratulations on getting sober. :) i wish you nothing but the best in your life and your recovery.
congrats!
Legend. Stay clean!
You doing gods work my man! I’m from Kentucky I got stuck In my addiction in Kensington during the height of the pandemic, it was like a zombie movie I thought I was gonna die but god had different plans for me 4 years sober today!
Wow I'm glad you were able to get sober. Keep up the good work 👍
Proud of you!! Keep going xx

@Wagomu S well if it wasn't people wouldn't of be so curious to watch the video. A creative thumbnail makes viewers wants to watch the video
the fact that there are cities in this state of destruction and NO ONE is talking about it is absolutely heart breaking oh my god
People are talking about it. Hell, I don't even live in the states and we talk about how fked your country is. You all know it, you all see it. You all just don't do anything about it.
Please have you seen LA or SF? Or Seattle ? This is going to be the new US of A. Trust me, more and more people are resorting to drugs to escape their daily lives. It is spreading everywhere and is only going to get worse. We need a handmaids tale style society.
people are talking about it everyday... just no one w a brain!
It's almost like this is made-up fear mongering bullshit. 🤔 Weird.

Kills me to see whats happened to my city. So many good people lost to drugs. Sad thing is, the people in power that CAN help, WON'T help. This is literal hell, man.

Hot shot was outstanding. This man should do his own show about the streets. Very intelligent and has the ability to explain the problem and the reality of life in that area. This man would be sensational if he had his own show. Well done

As someone from philly lived here my whole life this is tragic part of the area is getting cleaned up but sadly alot of it is also getting pushed up towards the suburban areas. An as an ex addict i really hope people can find the strength to recover and onky they them selfs can do it no one else can do it for them until they are finally ready to say enough is enough.
Dang.
thank you for actually getting people who know what their talking about to help you out in these videos, as well as putting ur life at risk, there needs to be more awareness on these neglected places
Hello
Tyler putting out the news that we dont hear. What a legend
yes legendary!
Shit this been news for the better part of a decade, just not national news bc it never made it's way to nyc in mass till 2022.
We need more stuff like this. Showing the world what the us is really like a make a change, the stuff the gov censors
well I heard about it on the news
Agreed. As someone who lives across the country, I never hear about this stuff. Legendary
This video actually made me feel lucky to live in a good, nice, area with little to no violence.
Same, while were I live there’s a little violence I’m glad there isn’t as much violence as shown in this video
I live near the murder capitol and im still glad I don't live there 🤣
@@Kometheus same- i'm worried if this spreads
with white people and few black people of course
I live in Latin America ☠
What great coverage of what’s going on in the world in ur content - Everything main stream media never fully investigates - Kudos to you!!
Government should take a big and immediate action on this issue
That what they do... Depopulation.
Bless Shakor’s heart, that’s a man who’s experienced loss in the city and just wants to see change. I pray that he stays safe
Zombie brain 🧠🤯🧠
Seeing gambling dens in a drug addiction area is basically criminal activity. Where's the city's council putting a stop to this or do the gangsters rule the streets. The Zombie people is just incredibly sad
Cops are mafia
Yea they city doesn’t care the whole city is just ran by gangs no matter what part of Philly u go
They’re disgusting they’re not sad. They chose this life and then claim victim as soon as it’s got them in their grasp. Pathetic weak excuses for humans.
Honestly it's to out of control to be stop. Back when I use to get high I would see cops close down a block and arrest all the dealers @ like 1pm by 7pm that same block would be up and running with new dealers.
Philly’s government is unfortunately very very very corrupt.
Kensington in Philadelphia = Hell on Earth!!! Makes the old West Town of Deadwood look as a Disney Park.
I was recently in Tuscan AZ, and when getting back to my Airbnb, there was a person standing up but folded in half - frozen - not moving for a long time. It was like an alien was going to split out of them or something. I was so freaked out! After watching this, it must’ve been a person on tranq. How do people do this to themselves?
You can see the fear on Tyler’s face throughout the vid, it’s crazy the amount of heights he goes to entertain us, I feel so rewarded watching this channel
das crazy
I don't think the goal here is to entertain.. I think it's to bring awareness to the situation... Nothing entertaining about watching people hurt themselves and others.

Brent: 😡😡
as a german I have to pause this video after 2 minutes and have to list all the things that I encountered in the first 2 min of this video that I have NEVER seen once in 25 years of my German life:
- a guy carrying a gun for safety
- a needle
- someone getting arrested on the street
- zombies
Doch Nadeln tatsächlich schon in Frankfurt
Germans don't have the GOP responsible for all that. But maybe in the near future. GOP=AFD.
Worst thing? It is just the beginning.
Nah I’ve seen needles in Germany.
i've worked in Frankfurt for awhile and parts of the inner city were wild man
I can tell these dudes actually care about the community. I'm from the area and it's a breath of fresh air to see my guys showing people whats going on..
I seriously respect you for going out there and talking to everybody with respect. Thank you for spreading awareness. I lost someone i loved deeply to an overdose. I so want to see change.
Same
this is literally terrifying. i’m from the philly suburbs and i knew about the ongoing problems in kensington but seeing it like this breaks my heart. praying for these people.
It's scary because this could be anyone. If I tried I have no doubt I would be hooked until I was dead
Pray for them? So basically you'll do nothing to help?

The Everywhere Project, their heart is in the right place. I can't help but wonder though if that type of work enables addiction. It makes them slightly more comfortable, and slightly more complacent.

Step 1, stop voting Democrat
Democratic is better
It has nothing to do with politics, violence is human nature.
@@nosepowder69 Naiive
@@se3579 As a therapist, when a democrat is in the house, a lot of money is poured into social services like mental health centers and addiction recovery centers. When a republican is in the house it almost stops completely. It is a noticeable change when a democrat leaves.
My heart goes out to those parents just trying to keep their kids safe. I can’t even imagine how that must feel
Feel bad? Just gotta put all your effort to leaving. Moving is wayyyy cheaper than people make it sound
@@0n.silent.wings. Not with kids man, and even if it was, they said this started recently. There was definitely lead up to it. Even just HAVING to move away in the first place is terrible
They voted for it.
Yes, changing your life is hard. Burying your children because you were too stupid or lazy to leave a war zone is much harder than leaving. You made the children, time to be a parent.
They should keep voting for democrats. Maybe things will get better!
My guy started from breathing the worlds most expensive air to this i remember your old videos i used to watch as a kid now im a teen still enjoying your content
Your excellent channel has so much substance to it- messy, load, continuous, confusing and dizzying music doesn't add a selling point to it in my humble opinion. Makes it specially challenging and near impossible for people like me- migraine sufferer, to use your phenomenal channel. All the best. Sammy

i do
i live right outside of philly, so whenever i go into the city, its always scary. i think i may get shot any time im in the city. it’s terrifying. but once you get onto penns campus, its beautiful. it sucks to see the city like this, and i hope this historical place can recover

What’s heartbreaking about it? It’s a criminal problem needing to be dealt with while you pout and cry.
@@coimbralaw it’s a society problem, we need more purpose and community to take away from soulless values like money.
@@coimbralawthis is why the issue is getting worse, Muppets like you think it's criminal problem and can't see how outdated that is. It's a health and social problem, and instead of spending millions locking people up use that money to clean up the streets and give the people a future to look forward to.
They are degenerates
Dude, im from mexico and im so grateful my dad didnt move us to the US. A very big US company offered him a job there, of course when we were kids we were so dissapointed we didnt move 😂. Now im almost 40yo and having visited over 20 countries i can say the US is the worst (i have been to cities only, im sure the countryside is ok). I even have to say that i felt safer in cuba than the US. I would even move to vietnam before the US anyday.
I live about 2 hours away from Philly… There’s a reason those of us who don’t live in the city call it “Filthadelphia”… I’m sure you can all understand why now. And that was BEFORE COVID. You couldn’t pay me enough to go anywhere near the city now. But even before that, all you’d see on the news were reports about people getting shot or stabbed, you’d see reports about drug use and how bad it’s gotten… I’ll never forget the week long report they did, this was back when I was 22 and I’m 51 now, about street vendors. The report happened to take place in Philly, but you should probably take it to heart about ANY city… They set up cameras to see what these street vendors were doing and they caught all manner of disgusting things from licking the soft pretzels to get the salt to stick to them (no joke) to the guys going to take a leak behind bushes and either spitting on their hands and rubbing them together to wash them out just not washing them at all… after touching their private parts… And these aren’t real clean looking guys to begin with. I’ve been seeing too many horrifying news stories from there all my life. I’ve only been there a handful of times in my lifetime and I honestly don’t care if I never go back again.
Kudos to the people who put themselves in harms way to try to clean up the streets. God bless you and keep you safe🙏❤️
It's honestly scary how apocalyptic that town is.
Edit: 5.3k likes and 85 comments, the most I've ever received on a comment thanks y'all.
It’s just some areas, spend anytime living there and you’ll know where to avoid. Also it’s a neighborhood in Philly not town. Just by Kensington is Fishtown, one of the nicest parts of Philly.
@@eellion3611 Sorry, didn't mean any disrespect.
@@BrokenReality124 don’t be sorry. I lived in Philadelphia for 38 years, and moved away 7 years ago. The last 7 years have been the best of my life. It wasn’t always this bad, but it has gotten exponentially worse in the last 15 years. The entire city is a sheeyit hole, with maybe a few livable parts. Fishtown/Northern Liberties is where idiots with money spend $400k-$900k to buy a house right next door to Kensington. Avoid Philadelphia like the plague.
@@luckymanham302 thanks for clearing it up, I don't plan on going there anytime soon and even if i did I cannot. Looks like something straight out of a horror movie.
@@BrokenReality124 it is. I just sold my parents house in Northeast Philly (Holmesburg) and I’m glad I never have to see this cesspool city again. It was a great place to grow up 40+ years ago, but the entire city is now just a violent, dangerous place. I stayed there taking care of my parents a month ago and heard 12 gunshots that sounded like they were right outside. This never happened 20-40 years ago, but is now commonplace. You aren’t missing anything. Cheers 🍻
You can see the genuine fear in Tyler’s eyes he can’t even hide it. He’s never been in or near a place like this. Too many cities in this country are heading this direction.
Yea Lawrence MA and Manchester NH been in that direction
Don’t let the gov play “social experiment” with ur city!!!

Great work. Real journalism. Rare today.
Im so glad i came across this bros channel. SO DANG ENTERTAINING!
At 7:48 the amount of courage for her to voice her situation was very inspirational, as an addict myself. It takes a lot to even admit that you are one. The tremble in her voice made me wheep. I pray she is in a better situation. I love your videos Tyler
If the drug supply were magically cutoff would that improve the situation or make it worse?
@@eeddsdsd i think a little of both, the addicts would all go through the stages of sobering up from the high which in most if not all cases can be brutal for the smallest of drug addiction, a lot of them would probably do anything to get the same feeling again which can be even more dangerous and because a lot of these drugs can also be in medication that actually helps people that need it for real medical treatment it means that more houses might get robbed for real medical drugs and those would then be used as recreational drugs and from what I've seen, americans basically all have guns, especially in areas like this, it would most likely cause more deaths
@@babyblue5964 Ok, thanks for talking to me. This issue is highly politicized so I thought I would ask since most of the articles online are agenda driven and don't care about the people.

saw zombies, knew it was kensington. absolutely horrible what goes on down there, way different from when my parents grew up there
My parents grew up around Kensington, they said it was a great area at one point. I remember going there as a kid visiting family and the area was on a decline but nowhere near what it is now. That area took my cousin and my big brother away from me all just this year. I miss them both so much, I still talk to my brother every day. I'll sit in the mornings with my coffee telling him about how much life has changed for me since he passed and I'll tell him what I'm making for dinner every night. His murder was senseless and I wish I didn't have to talk to an urn to talk to him. They are still to find my cousins remains, and they're saying they might never find them.
I'm sorry for your loss man. If they're looking down on you from heaven, make them proud by making good choices and (if you have/plan on having) kids, raise them right. If everyone did these 2 things, the world would be a safer, better place.
I pray they find your cousin’s body, and that the killers of him and your brother are found and served actual justice. I’m lucky enough to have not had a relative, much less two, be murdered, but all I can really advise you is to design your life in a way that avoids such painful situations. Don’t start raising a family until you live in a safe place, and teach your kids to be vigilant but confident.
WALL IT OFF and use it as an unmanned PRISON.. no water electricity food just a walled off dumping ground for the waste of time useless junkies to die & rot in

Sorry for your losses.
Damn. This took a lot of guts. You can see by the body language, especially at the start, Tyler is clearly feeling apprehensive/scared/uncomfortable.
Ya they're bringing a 6000 dollar camera set-up into one of the most unsafe places in the country. Had to have 2 or 3 OG gangbangers escorting him.
That’s cause dude is obviously from the suburbs simple as that
I would too. Step on a needle, you can easily contract disease! I would be less worried about getting shot but more worried about the health risk.
Its not even drugs , it’s a really dangerous neighborhood . you will get shot
2:30 he's right about a lot of people coming from out of town. Many of these people GO there. People from the suburbs have fone there. Another wild part is. This strip is only a few blocks big... relatively tiny vompared to Philly's population of 1.85 MILLION people.. and yet the sheer amout of volume of people in Kensington
Unpopular opinion: Stop feeding the strays let them overdose, they knew the consequences when they started.
"Don't help people."
What a sad mentality.

Yeah, it's a really fcked up situation
Why do they get the money for the drugs, and why take drugs
Seattle mayor Bruce Harrell and the newer city council have this horror show in Seattle, Washington too. We’ve been run over with drugs and crime. The high price of renting anything here has sent Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous to the outskirts of Seattle. Since the COVID 19 crisis meetings disappeared and the ODs and death from alcoholism has gone rocketed off the charts. Both 12 step fellowships have a lot of people with NARCAN but the users get mad and attack them for ruining the high. Hang in there America. Facing public disregard and hatred will always be problematic but we will prevail. ❤
@@Tenchi707 it happens before you actually see it.
One thing I never understood is why people use needles and this is coming from someone who’s been in recovery for 2 years. Each time you inject anything, you put yourself at risk of diseases, limb amputations, and even an infection of the heart. I don’t see how someone can think that losing limbs and contracting diseases is worth a better high. I used to sniff my Suboxone every day instead of taking it sublingually. When I got a sinus infection the first time, I never did it again and take it properly now.

It’s crazy how we thought Skid Row was the only one but in 2023 every major city has places like Skid Row. As a recovering addict myself. Almost 3 years of sobriety after 6 years of fentanyl usage, this is where I would have ended up. Thank you God for giving me the right things to get better. This is leaving me speechless I have no words at all.
At first glance my immediate reaction was to think umm it's everywhere. It all comes differently to me because in 2012 I chose to go pan handle my way from Midwest iowa to Florida, then made my way eventually to reno. It was nothing like this. I was not in the dangerous areas like these humans. But i was not in a rush so exploring the streets was a pass time. For the entire journey, in my loyal pos 99 blazer all along the way, it was a good 8 to 9 months of cruising off cash panhandling to making tips for waiting tables in the waffle houses along the way. The world has brutally changed. I'd never make the journey in 2024.. I'm so fortunate 😢
I have been blessed with making my way back to my family in iowa from a room I rented in the 777 hotel in reno. It could have swallowed me up. Stay kind to all humans 💛
So you have stopped pentangle??? How hard was it to stop. ,
Thr place in this video is very disgusting.
How did u get petrol was it all panhandling @chancemorris4992
praise jesus im 3 months sober from alchohol myself
How did you overcome drug addiction?
0:18 Love how that's the original Majora's Mask Clock Tower bell sound.
“You can call the devil and don’t like em when you see em comin” DEEP!!
As a Brazillian that’s something that we never expected to see in north america. We always had the vision of US and Canada as “clean” countries with no drugs. Now living in Canada is super sad to see people ruining they life with some strong drugs. Hope that pandemic over one day
It is clean in a lot of places, Philly is one of the dirtiest cities in this country I actually found Pittsburgh to be much nicer looking
Let me tell you this my Latin brother. Mexico is safer than those countries combined. ALMO fixed Mexico. All we need is for the next president to do the same and send the entire military to chase the cartels out. And you should know this cause when it comes to Latin economy Brazil and Mexico are the top ones.
No more California dreaming.
most larger countries have cities like this (not that extreme though). i bet there's one in brazil too
@@leahflower9924 Most of Philly doesn't look like this though. Kensington is by far the worst part which you are seeing here. It's wild because just 30 mins away in the suburbs of Philly are some of the best places to live in the State of PA. Pittsburg is cleaner though but also has a lot less people and problems to deal with.
Drug addiction should be made illegal. The state has the responsibility to put all drug addicts in rehabilitation centers, with or without their consent. They may only be freed once they're clean and they have the support they need outside. They should even get probation time. Probation agents would basically act like sponsors. They'd make sure recently released addicts go to AA meetings and lead clean and productive lives. Bear in mind that illegal doesn't always mean criminal.
Drug addiction isn't a crime. The goal is to benefit society by helping addicts, not by giving them a criminal record and prison time. Making addiction illegal simply allows the state to arrest addicts and make rehabilitation mandatory. More money should be spent on rehabilitation programs and mental health resources. This actually ends up saving money because it reduces crimes and increases tax collection. Addicts pay more taxes when they're clean and have a stable job than when they're homeless and wasting their lives on drugs. The only criminals are the drug traffickers.
I agree 👍
This is my city and this area Is finally CLEANED
to see the library shuttered like that breaks my heart. The library is a TEMPLE, to see that is beyond tragic
Finished knowledge, finished mind...
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@dominiquexo4772 I don’t understand what’s funny. Can you elaborate ?
@@jadehuff3935 niggas in these neighborhoods aint goin to the library bro lmfao

I was in that area 8 years ago picking up some machinery from a warehouse and it was no different, junkies everywhere. One day we had to work late and as soon as the sun set they started crawling out of the sewers like drug zombies. It was the most disturbing thing I've ever seen.
Crazy... Drugs are an open door to demons they're just not in the right mind demons take over. So it really is like there's zombies
😳
Good ol america for you. Land of the free!
@خالد so does Christianity. you realise not everyone in America is Christian too, right?
@@chris0x98think he was being sarcastic
Remembers me on a dark time in Bern / Switzerland. There was the "Kocherpark" and in Zurich "Platz Spitz". It was Hell on earth!
I love that you go directly to the source and ask opinions from different views of people actually living it. Thank you for sharing and shedding light on the darkness.
That was nice of that young man to show him around the bad parts of the city and most importantly made them all feel safe and comfortable being around all of that madness…
Even brought a gun to protect both of them
W
Love that you showed that gun that he carried. That's real as hell. You show the whole story. A lot of journalists would try to push their story, you just show the reality. If this guy didn't have a gun, he'd be dead in a month.
probably not even a month, i'd say about 4 days
Wonder how you explain all the people who've lived there for years and have never touched a gun.
@@cor144 simple. they hide.
@@cor144 there are very few of them.
@@bilbo_gamers6417 There are more than you can count.
I'm living in South Africa and couldn't have imagined ab American city looking like this. It's hair raising to see this. I'm glad there are people willing to get involved to help the ones stuck in addiction and all it brings with it.
Bro your videos are sick keep making more .I love watching your channel.
holy moly this was intense to watch with the incredible production value.
also nobody talking about how the dude was so good at helping tyler go around safely, so kudos to him definitely.
Agreed. He had a great way with words and speaking his mind as well. Hope he stay well.
That’s the type of cat you check in with when you come to a new city and don’t know yo way around pay em solid cheese that a solid brother right there cause 9 times out of 10 the way they out there strapped up, if white dude was by himself he definitely would have been a target 🎯 they would have either tried to dope him up or rob em but you see shakur he put a stop to all that you see he not worried he got the strap his goons he in his environment he been there his whole life that’s a black man in his element he looking at every man in his face commanding the room as he’s talking giving the tour and any man that’s presenting an issue he asking em “yo my man what’s up you good?” He basically showing you how a man supposed to protect himself and his entourage while in the trench
@@daequanhines6052 shakur for president 2024
@Anno Kitsune if you think production is about the camera and the mic, then you probably dont know what you’re talking about. production is everything from the connections (like shakur) to the research they do and the information they give.
edit: safety of the crew, transportation, places to stay, eat etc. are all considered part of production as well. i assume it’s not an easy task to be able to handle all those in a city like that.
@@daequanhines6052 stay glazing buddy
This was very respectful and thoughtfully put together. Awareness is key which makes videos like this so so important.
Most people don't care including me. The extent that I care is to make sure I don't live or go to a place like that.
@@eagle25311 "Most people don't care". Precisely. Can't argue with you there. Have a good day sir.
I agree military. That group at end is only assisting the addiction.
Jordan Peele needs to do a movie on this the actors can be the actual addicts just being themselves
Love how educated this guy was with everything going on in philly. I remember when my friend lived in philly she didnt last longer than a month. She got robbed over 3 time, held at knife point more times than she can count. Once someone quite literally stole EVERYTHING in their apt I mean furniture, toilet paper, they left nothing. That was the last straw for her she had to go. Kensington is terrifying and not for the weak. I be scared In the suburbs sometimes dude. This world is so scary nowadays.
To be clear she lived in the heart of Kensington i shouldve said that lol
Are you serious? I knew it was a bad area but they are robbing people out there with a knife? Makes me scared to even visit Kensington
@@Stingray23 wel don’t visit Kensington 😂 there are PLENTY of good spots in philly that are not that i promise
@@Stingray23don't
@@Stingray23honestly there’s nothing in that area of Philly besides drugs and chaos lol, you can work play and live in Philly without setting foot in Kensington
I'm from this area in Philly and this is all I saw growing up and it broke my heart everyday, Thank you Tyler for bringing this issue to light! Philly needs help!
please baby do sum to escape
It's too far gone
The only way for it to be fixed is for citizens to really pay attention to policies and bills that the state government tries to pass. Also, never vote Democrat because their policies always destroy the local economy! Look at California for example, Democrat policies destroyed that state!
I am from western PA. While I haven't heard great things about Philly, but I didn't realize there were places in Philly that were this bad.
I was in Pittsburgh on the other side of Pennsylvania a few months ago visiting a friend. He lived in an apartment building right next to a park. We were about to cut through the park to walk to Riggs Lounge and he stopped to turn his phone's flashlight on so we could avoid the sea of needles. I've never seen so many needles in my life. The next day he drove me around the city showing me the sights, and pointed out a homeless camp. Said he seen a woman just taking a shit out there, posted right next to the road.
I can't imagine living around this kind of stuff like it's normal.
As someone who travels through Philly often. Avoid Kensington At all costs
The funny thing here is, that this place is named after one of the most richest / best areas of London and the world in general…..
Tyler: Is it addictive?
Addict:
💀
The fact that it was once like the “real life purge” there is absolutely spine chilling
I doubt it got that bad
@@badazzfelicianoliterally shut up you don’t know what you’re talking about
@@badazzfelicianoAre you even watching the same video? It already looks like that.
@@teddibearsattack no it doesn't. Just looks like some people need rehab.
@@badazzfeliciano 😂
Looks like a good place for the show Intervention to set up another headquarters. Help is absolutely needed and the show will always have participants, so it’s a win win.
I would never be a camera man for this guy. There’s no way I’m risking my life to hold a camera
I hope our city gets better. This is sad I lost my dad to drugs and I can't imagine the people in Kensington rn .This city feels like a dystopia
Sad
It is a dystopia. This is what happens when you vote the wrong people in.
Nobody voted these people in. They manipulated every system possible, and we are witnessing what happens when Dictators completely control a Government through the tyranny of the ignorant majority that is the direct end result of Democracy. Welcome to the future of the US. Yet no one will truly do anything until everyone is in abject poverty, as history of decaying Empire's shows.
@@azuroslazuli6948 I came here to say that too.

Tyler went from filming goofy videos to an actual journalist
Yeah it’s a good thing to spread awareness
A journalist would ask ppl if they agree showing their faces in that situation. Ppl that recovery from this can have all sorts of trigger watching it or the images could be used against them
@@AntonioArrudaNetohe blurs some faces and not others, I assume that he asks them before he starts filming.
@@AntonioArrudaNeto Lmao foh with that bullshit
That is not journalism, it was a tour.
I’m from Philly and have been driving through that street everyday for my entire life. You see the dead bodies, gun fights, overdoses, etc so much everyday that you almost don’t realize it anymore. It’s like wallpaper. I’ve seen people overdose 10 feet away from cops and nobody does anything. It’s a wild part of the world
this sad as hell i hope they get the help they need
When I saw the title of this video, I knew it was Kensington Ave, in Philly. I'm from Philly and this tranq problem is worse than Crack. What they don't tell you, is the reason it is so hard for these people to get help, is because of their open wounds. Rehab will not accept them with open wounds. Everyone on tranq has open wounds. It's really sad and inhumane that they can not get the help they need.
What is open wounds?
@@Userkangjihoon23451if you go take a look at atm fox (a guy who interviews people on the streets of Kensington) some of the users will explain it. Basically it’s a reaction from the drugs. It’s drainage that creates openings in the skin that get infected from shooting up tranq. It’s looks very bad. Hence another reason they are being called zombies. Some peoples entire limbs get infected & swollen. I’m in late in response but just saw your question.
@Userkangjihoon23451 Tranq is the street name for an animal tranquilizer. It was never made for human consumption. It literally eats people up from the inside out, by leaving open wounds or sores all over the body that can not heal. The wounds can get so bad, that legs or arms have to be amputated. Put CNN Philadelphia in your search box and watch that video.
@@Userkangjihoon23451They're bleeding, because they use the needle to insert the drug.
They are abominations.
imagine being so numb to finding dead bodies, watching people get killed, using & drive bys everyday. this is heartbreaking to watch. and the cops don’t even care anymore? sickening. this entire community needs help. bless the souls that are trying to help these people. much love
yes
Food 📡
I live here it’s basically the walking dead lol
Philly is the trenches but not all of it zombies tho
lol what does “caring” look like to you? You can’t waste all your energy and emotional investment into helping people who don’t want to be helped…first responders learn that pretty quickly
My dude literally said "the more you play the more you win" about gambling machines lol. That is the exact opposite of how they work
Your interview style reminds me a bit of a danish tv show called The Photo Van, although they mostly just drive around rural Denmark asking people how and what they're doing.
