    The Nepali guy who remained hopeful 16:45 is a huge inspiration. Im one of the few Mexicans who Work with Nepali people at a Nepali restaurant, and they are the most Beautiful and Humble people ever, they treat you with so much love and respect that they make you feel like Family.

      Either hope, or insanity, The Darien gap is synonymous with tragic consequence and demise - a lone traveler has a very poor Chace of surviving such a perilous attempt. It is fraught with marauding gangs of drug smugglers, millitant fugitives and outcasts of society. Any presence is a threat to their cover, and sternly I'll advised. You are looked upon as spy, and frequently dispatched then and there, never to be heard of again, lest your skeletal remains be discovered months, or even years later, strewn across the jungle floor after having been ripped open, dismembered and consumed by Wild ravenous scavenging animals.

And when Adam asked where he got all the strength, the guy said the most powerful words, “faith in God.” Adam felt for the guy who showed him what courage and faith is about, and made him realize how lucky he was.

And we saw many people die or get deported in the way. out of a group of 10 cubans who where with us during the journey 2 of them are still very close friends with us and we meet for every Christmas/ birthdays/new year/ and thanksgiving because is like if we were a real family and each other is all we got in this country. The people in this video had it easy we didnt have anyfood aside for brown sugar and uncooked oatmeal we made with the water from the river. and my mom and i got our periods there and we didnt have supplies. it is important to not take everything for granted and be grateful for everything you have even if its just a little

    Felt choked up a few times watching this doc. Very powerful. The desperation, lack of options, faith, hope, resilience, hunger for life is palpable in these people. I’ve been in some jungles and just being a tourist walking through felt like a nightmare. Very touching, especially Shahab’s and the man from Nepal’s stories. I sincerely hope these people made where they wanted to be. We live in a cruel world.

      Hi Brian. No, I'm not Latin. How I ended up in Colombia.? Well, the economy in the US a number of years ago was horrible. I was in my mid 40s then and I decided to take a trip. I had a friend I met on line who lived in Bogota and she invited me to visit a few years ago. So I took a plane from Detroit to Bogota and once I arrived here I knew I had to stay. I found another woman here in Bogota that I am in the process of going into business with. The cell/internet service is much slower than in the US, but it is still better than it was on my first trip years ago. Overall no complaints though, Am I going back to Detroit? Not anytime soon,... Oh by the way, I live in barrio Bosa in the south.

      Interesting story. I’m 40 and came to the US when I was 22. It’s funny how now some people are going from here to Colombia to visit or retire there. Venezuelans are also migrating massively to Colombia.
      Until a few years ago, and for many decades, it was extremely difficult to find some foreigner daring to even visit Colombia.
      We also lived in Bogotá, in the 80’s, in Engativá, right next to the airport, when that area was still the countryside. Then moved and grew up in Armenia, Quindío.
      Isn’t the Bosa area kind of dangerous, like Detroit is right now?

    • @danielyruby8696
      @danielyruby8696 6 лет назад +23

      Yeah, thats the sterotype here is the south is dangerous...However, I got robbed at gunpoint and at knifepoint in Parque Nacional close to Chapenero last April. Crime is all over regardless of the neighborhood. I will say this, I have yet to see anything as violent as Detroit here. Nothing close to the burned out neighborhoods Detroit offers, nor the murders. Maybe Palmira, close to Cali has violence like Detroit. But getting a cedula here is almost impossible unless you have serious money. Even getting married here is not easy. The Notarias have clamped down hard and make up excuses why not to approve papers. The term Byzantine is very fitting here regarding government regulations. Ive overstayed my tourist visa twice in the past 4 years and had to pay a 550,000 pesos fine each time. Seems to me its cheaper and easier to pay the fine than to be legal here....

    This is a really good documentary and I hope these people can reach their goals. Even though I live in Panama, I didn’t know that this situation was worse than I expected happening in our border with Colombia. Thank you and God bless you.

    Thank you. This is one of the better videos about the Darien Gap and I have watched a lot of them ! Those who are desperate follow the jungle route using guides, at a cost of course. The guides tend to avoid the paths the drug smugglers use, but are most likely to ask for more money half way through the trip. They also abandon those who get fairly close to the Panama border leaving them to go on alone, for obvious reasons. At the border most will be sent back.. or if they have tried to cross before, to prison. The Darien Gap IS dangerous and extremely challenging . There are some good posts like this one on YT. But there are others that have been hyped up..and really not honest. If you are really interested consider watching a few...and make your own mind up. Avoid the hyped up one showing a Skull on a stick lol...He makes out he could be going to his death (takes anti venom and never sees a snake and his wife gives him a peck on the cheek as he strolls away, as if he is going to the office....) its a joke. Anyway that's what YT is all about... other peoples opinions...including mine. lol. Enjoy.

      They should use their energy to improve the place they live though. If they want to risk their lives, stand up to the dictators that are keeping the 3rd world countries from developing.
