Ill never forget Americans in Frankfurt told me they are going to Austria to see Kangaroo's 😂😂😂😂
That's definitely something american tourists would say
yeah that's a joke austrians love to make. just like australians love to make the joke "i bet they think we're upside down!" actually we don't really think about either of your countries that much... would love to go to newzealand or belgium though
@krebgurfson5732 yeah 100% didn't happen
To be fair, that and koala bears are about the most exciting things about Australia 🤷♂️
To be fair as an American I would much rather go to Australia than Austria though. At least Australia didn’t give us the worst human being in the history of mankind lmao
Tom face when Christina kept calling him "bro" or "homie" right at the start had me dead
I know right, crazy unattractive when girls say that
ifux w/it!!!🔥
It's pathetic isn't it
@@AnthonyMcArdle-xc1egwhy?
Yea I couldn’t imagine my wife referring to me as ‘bro’.
We love Americans touring Australia. We like our wildlife to have exotic foods from time to time.
Pretty much blubber so that really energy dense 👌🏻
Look at the cute kangaroos! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh😮😮😮😮
Throw another shrimp on the Barbie…idiot mate
Ok plz stop sending people to NYC and LA we don't need anymore baristas.
@@markright6759yeah but your coffee is so shit you kind of do need more baristas.
It looks like Christina has been hunting/skinning muppets and making clothes out of them.
Us poors have no idea what it's like to wear puppet fur. We shouldn't criticize her for being a rich.
@@antonlifer4449 It's from Garth Brooks new "friends in low places" clothing line.
On safari at Fraggle Rock.
Opiates
Yes 😂
lmao, "they're arguing over who's going to rob you lol"
This is 100% true, it is not even a joke.
"Hi, we're Americans! The World is our amusement park."
I mean it was for 400 years. Problem is our liberals made us look soft.
@@ONETimothy2.12-14 Dude, libs, dems, they're all meat to some of these "stans". Unless it's your military.
@@ONETimothy2.12-14we weren't a super power until 1945.
@user-bl3si3kq6x We were always a super power. Look up trade in the 1700s.
@@ONETimothy2.12-14 but we weren't among the most powerful as far as economy or empire. We didn't really hit a stride until we sold weapons during ww1. We couldn't even fund our own wars until the 1900s.
Met Americans that had a friend that wanted to visit South Africa and wanted a few tips for her. The ladies plan was to arrive in Johannesburg and start hitch hiking immediately when she landed to explore the city and country.
Immediately told them that’s the worst idea I ever heard of. On your own is allready an awful idea. Also outside OR Tambo airport there
is not a dirt road leading to an elephant sanctuary with rainbows and zebras frolicking it’s a 3 lane highway in a dangerous area 😂
The absolute ignorance was mind boggling
That plan leads to raped, robbed and murdered, in to particular order. Terrifying to hear! South Africa is a wonderfull country to visit. Experience or really thorough research is essential to your safety here.
hitch hiking south africa is probably the dumbest thing ive ever heard.
Statistic waiting to happen 😂😂😂
@@edp3202 Hi. That is a very tough question to answer. I would start with, asking the owners or staff of whatever establishment you end up staying at about risks in the local area. Do your best not to look like a tourist. No big fancy cameras. Use your phone while being aware of your surroundings and stash it back in a pouch that is secured to your body. Never take out cash in public unless it is in a restaurant. Millions have visited South Africa and left with a positive experience. Common sense will take you a long way. We have a lot of beggars here. If you choose to give them something, keep five rand coins in a separate pocket from the rest of your valuables. That is enough to help them out a bit but not enough to make it look like you are rich. Avoid going to restaurants after dark, again depending on where you are and advice from the locals. If you do decide to visit, I'm sure you will find the country full of beauty and lovely people if you just do some research.
I have been through lots of SA, Burkina Faso, DRC, Ivory Coast in a mining job... there are parts of Joburg and Cape Town that i didnt feel safe in a Land Cruiser with large 2 armed guys (friends). In Burkina Faso our work party of 3 was greeted at the airport by a 4 vehicle rolling motorcade, one with a guy standing on the back with a mounted heavy machine gun, loads with rifles and all carrying pistols. Once we started driving and i said to our site contact "what the fk??" he said ISIS were active in the region. Longest 2 weeks of my life.... im not a racist person by any means but at least 20% of countries throughout the world are NOT to be messed with, you are a meal in a jungle full of hungry predators, not some Disney movie
I think I would want a herd of cattle in front of me on IED road
🤣😂 LMAO! She's sweet! She made one big Oopsie and they disemboweled her..." LOL!
A friend of my did a tour in Afghanistan and despite how horrible serving there was he did say that the landscape was really pretty at least where he was stationed. That being said, I'll just take his word for it. No desire to see it myself.
Yeah it looks like Yosemite
@@davidnavarette6289 No they look nothing alike.
Lol where I was looked exactly like pictures sent back from Mars. Best part about these knuckleheads is that someone is tasked with retrieving them.
Maybe go see the Dolomites, French countryside, all the hundreds of civilized beautiful places first. Once you've done all that go through the slightly less safe places like Bulgaria and Romania etc. Once you've spent a few decades going through the thousands of relatively safe beautiful places...maybe then you can go ahead and consider bad ideas if you're so determined.
@@pistonburner6448 Wow I Googled the Dolomites and wow those are beautiful. I will say though there are very few beautiful things in the world that you can't also see something similar in America. For sure not everything but most. Like with Dolomites we have Castle Crags which is right next to Mount Shasta and that just one example off the top of my head. Unless you're super into European history there isn't much you can't see in America. BTW I'm NOT a ra ra 'Murica person. Just saying that if people want to see most of the beautiful things in the world then one BIG trip to America would be pretty amazing. For sure do your research first. There are plenty of dangerous places here and places that are just a flat let down.
RIP to Sully. Roseanne is wearing you now.
U might be a genius
Roseane wouldn't wear that.
Rip big guy
Bravo! 👏👏👏
Lol tom Arnold
As someone who has been to all post-soviet Stans except for Turkmenistan, I need to say something. I don't recommend Tajikistan at all, Kyrgyzstan is only for people who want to go 100 years back in time and breathtaking nature, and Kazakhstan is alright but nothing too special. BUT Uzbekistan is stunning, not for the nature, but the historic cities of Samarkand, Bukhara, and Khiva are worth the trip. The locals in Uzbekistan are pretty welcoming, and the new generation also speaks decent English. However, I do recommend learning the basics of Russian before you go, you'll need it eventually. As for safety, the only country I did not feel safe in was Tajikistan. The Kazakh capital also feels odd depending on where you are, but all other places are totally fine. (I went last year)
The amount of privilege "So we travel to our least favorite place in the world to show you guys what it's like"
I was in Greece when an American complemented a group of Austrailians for, "being really good at English."
RIP Sully from monsters inc. You died to become a coat for some dumb grandma
I love her coat and want one myself why hate watch if you don't appreciate it
Here in Annapolis Royal, Nova Scotia I've seen tourists bring skis and winter clothes in summer
I live in Southern Ontario, I once had some guys from Texas disspointed there was no snow. In July.😆

“All these Stan-countries are awful…”🤣
Points for the algo. I was just watching a news update about how the Red Sea is a complete war zone full of daily missiles, drones, and hijackings. And I thought about this Royal Caribbean World Cruise that just launched and how they think they're going to just sail right through it all. American Exceptionalism at it's finest.
Oof. But the endless troughs of buffets are so worth it! 🤦🏻♀️
I am the cruise ship captain now
3:53 "Rohadt cigányok" REPRESENT!! ❤❤
Christina gets it to the point..saying as somebody who grow up in Easter/Balkan part. They was fighting about who's gonna take the ride, and the woman is not fucking babushka but hard core gypsy that can curse you life away😂
they probably wont rob them, just over-charge which is negligible due to currency exchange. They're arguing about who gets the job
"Thinner."
@@Michael_Smith-Red_No.5 Yeah except they don't curse you when you run one of them over, they curse you when you catch them stealing. I swear I'm not racist in any other way, but gypsies should be declared a biological race separate from the entire rest of humanity.
@@butter_nut1817 oh they definitely know a Larry the Butcher if you step wrong or they decide they dont like you
@@butter_nut1817 they aren't robbing them but they're charging them the "foreigner" fee. It's why when I travel I usually try to know the language or not seem so out of place because they absolutely do charge you more.
Apparently, pamir Highway is pretty damn safe nowadays and has laws and regulations that pretty much everyone follows that use it. It's very dangerous as far as terrain and remoteness. I suppose you could get robbed and killed, but it is mostly a trade route for farmers.
Absolutely not the case, you need to get special regional permits to go, etc. Any embassy will do their best to talk you out of going there
thats BS - go there and find out.
@@JW-qf2fx Just information I found doing a couple hours of research and looking into groups in the area and government intended laws and regulations for that particular region. Lot of info, actually.
@@grantsmyth8504Do you also notify your embassy when you pass through Chicago? 🤣
There is literally ISIS operating there.
LOL - they are fighting over who is going to rob you first!!! good one Christina!!
On the way back from Afghanistan we stopped in Kyrgyzstan. It reminded me of that scene on Eurotrip when they walk around saying “Miami Vice number 1 New Show “. By the way TYFYS Tom I have a Purple Heart but your bravery is known amongst even the bravest of hero’s.
If TS is saying this, you know it’s bad. He’s basically special forces
YOU'RE WELCOME FOR YOUR FREEDOM BTW.
Basically? Show some respect to his service please.
He fucking served in fallujah
i miss Nadav's laugh so much!
R.i.p nadav crazy what happened to him.

I can’t believe Nadav is fighting in Gaza now, his laugh was great
The song in the first clip is from a band called Hers there from England. They were on tour in the US when they decided to extend it then they were killed a car accident in Arizona. RIP
You know who else is adventurous and not scared of everything? The Kennedy family.
I almost had an aenurism when she said "were going on a road trip to afghanistan". In the same voice of a teenage girl describing disney world
I want Tom and Tina to learn about Lord Miles of Afghanistan
The flag and president section was funny to me😂 Americans realising countries that highlight their president and flags like that are bad places but not quite connect the final dot was peak American
Voluntary vs mandatory. There’s a difference.
@@megmc80 1st step of brainwashing is to convince the brainwashed that they are acting voluntarily
The pledge of allegiance is strange. @@megmc80
@@megmc80its all brainwashing, people literally devote their entire lives to MAGA and trump even make their kids wear the merch, decorate their houses in it etc. You people are no better at all.
In the US the only places hanging up photos of the president are military bases. When I went to the Middle East it was mandatory for malls, hotels, apartment buildings, basically everywhere to have photos of the king hanging up
This is hilarious! But honestly thank you guys for bringing attention to this, it’s so arrogant
I've been to Kazakhstan and it was pretty sketchy. The cheapest way of transportation was to haggle with a random person to drive you to your destination.
I havent laughed this hard in a minute, thank you
I was stationed in Germany two different times (80s and late 90s) then Italy (2005-09).
You can see Americans 100 yds away.
@apcarl6351 they're morons. Loud, brash and under educated, wondering why noon speaks English. Also, they fail to follow local customs and practices to be polite. Demanding at businesses and rude to staff. They fail to realize they have no "due process" rights outside the US. When they get in trouble. You can spot a fellow American from far off outside the US.
PEOPLE from other countries, especially in Europe, speak more than one language (mutipile dialects). Only mt fellow Americans stand in front of people in say, Italy, demanding to speak to someone who speaks English. And wonder why people aren't helpful.
@@apcarl6351not really, my clearly offended friend. The American person has a distinct roundness and gait to them that is unmistakable from almost any distance
@@catfromtrigunThat's funny. Hardly anyone at the busy American gym I go to are fat, except for a couple that are working on it.
@@catfromtrigun they some how manage to manspread while walking, its truly impressive
Can confirm; lived in Darwin for 2 years a while back (remote Northern Australian outpost/Army town) and there's a garrison of US Marines permanently stationed there. Can spot the Americans walking around town there like they were painted blue.
Christina, I'm totally with you on the two words you said in Hungarian 👍
Tom as a millionaire, still makes her wear a jacket instead of turning the thermostat up.
I grew up in Uzbekistan, definitely not as bad as she’s making it sound
Sry

Nothing is great or nice
You left.
There's a reason you don't live there anymore.

As a military guy we did a layover in Kyrgyzstan and like you say post Soviet. It had this eire feel to it. My army buddies would joke you go to Tijuana. Thinking i would never be heard again. Just trying to find this donkey show. And a guy like i have been there just don't be out at dark. Reminds me of those selfie guys dieing on the cliff.
Christinas coat🔥🔥🔥
People in their 50's going "yoo bro"
Lame kid on the internet hating for no reason
So dangerous. Yet we are safe. Dang that’s ready. Who woulda thought
None of these countries you listed are dangerous, Afghanistan for sure but all the others are fine for tourists, very friendly people and the landscape and mountains are beautiful. Of course if your idea of vacation is turks and caicos, Bali or Bora Bora then by all means go swim with sharks and lay on the beach all day but some peoples idea of vacation is exactly this, understanding new cultures, exploring former soviet republics with sketchy situations left, right and centre. But hey I understand that Americans usually have a hard time in any country and people try to scam you.
PS: Pamir highway is one of the most beautiful places on our planet.
Oh really? I will go there and send you a video of me being murdered. Please note: i am not american, i speak russian among other languages and have a general awareness of my surroundings. I guarantee you, one slip and anyone will have some ugly memories in those countries. Those “nice” locals are nice to you only if you are submissive. The moment you raise your voice, you are surrounded by 20 unibrowed young men in adidas jumpsuits and there will be a knife or two somewhere. Those countries are indeed dangerous because those people are not normal. Everyone knows that, that’s why nobody goes there. Nobody feels like going somewhere you have to act dumb just to keep the locals chill. “Sure, charge me triple the amount, i don’t want to make you angry because our embassy is 5 hours of driving away”
You must invite Lord Miles for an interview 😎
"stan" countries... Brings to mind Eminem song. Clever.
The guy in the painting is wearing the matching hat for that coat.
That highway looked straight out of Homeland
Freaks me out she’s calls him bro and dude hahahaha
I like how the title seems to imply a surprise that Americans only seem dumb when traveling. I went to school in the states and was the only one in class who knew American history trivia.
There’s similar views in Colorado and Utah.
the STANS
I guess I have to cancel my trip to Beheadistan. Thanks YMH
That last video doesn't deserve to have the immortal "Resonance" playing in the background --- the song you direct everyone to when they ask you, "What is synthwave?"
Becoming my fav channel
Especially if they have to check a bag
Ok, so the level of ignorance in this conversation is literally equal to those TikTok videos.... All Americans are the same😂😂
Christina's coat is 100% polyster. $9.95 at goodwill.
They have the Hindu kush mountains at my local dispo

Seriously though. 👍🤦♂️🤷♂️
Everyone trying to do a Bald and Bankrupt and travelling to these former Soviet states … without the aces up their sleeves that Ben has 😬
What are his aces?
he speaks the language and is acquainted with the culture
He's also in his 40's so he's not a brash or naive dickhead and is extraverted, charming, funny and likeable which goes enormously in his favour to not being robbed/killed in those kind of places.
Here I am excitedly waiting for September to embark on my 10 day tour of Afghanistan 😆
You could found a place like that in the USA in some cities
didn't realise Christina grew up in Compton
Bro homie yo bruh Dawg.... she's so damn goofy
Tom is internally dying when she does this...
I just realize how American Christina and Tom are. Thinking that the isolated places in the world are super dangerous. There is only one country in the world where the odds are likely you'll be chopped up in a van by a random lunitic, on the rural highway and it's in your country. This video is imploding on itself it feels like. This is actually pretty hilarious. Many of the stan countries are amazing.
They don't have school shootings in the Stans 🤷♂️ But we like to pretend like everything's peachy here as if thoughts & prayers heals bullet wounds
Yeah, nah... America is far from safe in many areas, but the stans are NOT safe by any measure. You have no protection and no recourse in countries like that because they are dictatorships and NOT friendly to western nations and have zero tourism industry. Are you really claiming that Afghanistan is a safe place for an American to just stroll around?
buckets of diesel lmfaooo
I’m absolutely addicted to how cringe Thom and Karissa are. I can’t stop watching, I can’t stop clicking.

You missed the woman and her husband that went to India a few months back.
She had a wonderful experience with 6 Indian men in their tent, while her husband was forced to watch.
Don't worry, she doesn't blame India, she recommends young attractive white women continue to go there.
She must have really enjoyed her experience...
Christina, please don't say Homie, ever again.

Dushanbe looks cleaner than LA…
“Listen listen ( Linda)”

Why would he?
Tom and Bort please move your dudcast to one of the Stan counties.
nice work!!
Hit me back, just to chat, truly yours, your biggest fan, this is Stan.
The problem solves itself haha
They are Gumping it through.
She does this bad review for shock value, you wouldnt be watching their videos if they would be classic perfect travel vlogs would you? as europian the stans feel more safe for travels than USA at the moment to be totally honest
When did his wife get all bro....😂
The reasons Americans think they can go anywhere (well let’s be honest, it’s just rich people) is because they never grew up around any sketchy shit and in general most western culture is open to free flowing travel. Like I could move to Portland tomorrow and be accepted. They not used to a group of people literally wanting them to die for coming to their country 😂😂
I've traveled a little and frankly it's not nearly as dangerous as some seemingly want to believe. Most people just go about their day and don't cause issues.
Having said that, when things do go wrong they can go really wrong. Like that Hmong comedian that just got killed in Columbia, tragically (honey trap, kidnapping). Or one of my fellow countrymen (a police officer no less) and his girlfriend who got kidnapped in Pakistan (govt paid 20mil for their release after a few months). Or those two unmarried Australian youtubers who got detained (rather harshly for quite some time) for camping out in their 4wd which they thought would be cool... in Iran. Turns out they don't like unmarried couples sleeping in the same room there. Who would've thought?
Most situations can be averted by not being dumb and naive.
It used to be very popular to take the hippie trail aka the silk route into India. Hippies did it all the time in the 60s and 70s. Land route via Afghanistan. There's plenty Land Rover enthusiasts who do London to Singapore (or to Sydney) overland. It's quite a classic journey really.
@@mysterioanonymous3206 you are right , people in general are nice with humble strangers , specially far away from the cities , any bad hood in a big capital from the western world is more dangerous than Thayikistan and pakistan rural areas
yeah they're going through dangerous places, that doesn't mean they're dumb...
They need to watch Kurt Caz and his adventures. That guy has no F's about these places lol
Is that the guy that will go to places like Columbia where the cartels run the villages and he just hops on moped rides throughout these villages?
While I agree Kurt does some insane shit, he is also not textbook white lmao. He's South African White, that's a whole different tier.
He is the morden day Ghengis Khan
I love her jacket - who makes it ?
You are right about the stans, except for Kazakhstan.
Should have Prison tours for these young'uns. So they can spend a few days in the Gen pop as they sight see through a Max prison.
