You sound like an introvert, too much noise, hectic, too many people just drains me out.

I agree!!

​@@TeleeFONEIm extraverted by western standards and I would go crazy over there on the first day.

same for me lol i would get a cultureshock

​@@TeleeFONEnah bro nobody would resist a minute there if as soon as you get off the bus your swarmed by beggars

for sure! not even planned, just go with the flow

I know right? Wondering the same thing

Yes it was amazing!

I thought the exact same thing when I saw it haha epic!

Absolutely legendary!!!

Wow! Thanks for translating. Understood only that he was singing about the three religions but did not know what he was saying.

that scene was a brilliant show of affection between 2 strangers

How beautiful! Thank you!

Sound a peiceful song. Some cultures are better than outhers ha

Love it

must be a constant battle/decision on if this person im running into is a friendly interesting guide thats gonna make a great video addition.. or just a beggar/scam artist trying to plunder the foreigner

@@AndrewBrowner I feel like bald is the best at recognizing that

That guy at the and with the blue shirt, seemed more like a guy who oversees construction work and led you away from the bad environment so you wouldn't see it

I was really surprised about that. And very thankful to both guides for showing him in a proper manner.

No soviet sink though

He's bigger than Mr Beast, the Benjamin Franklin Bankrupt 🏦💰➡️🕳️

Haha, and he made me look for mosaic where ever I go too ;)

LIVING BEING IS OUR RACE,MANKIND IS OUR RELIGION HINDU,MUSLIM,SIKH,CRISTAIN,THERE IS NO SEPARATE RELIGION ALMIGHTY GOD KABIR is the father of all souls that JESUS, MOHAMMAD, GURU NANAK, VEDH was telling in BIBLE, QURAN, GURU GRANTHA SAHEB PRESENT MESSENGER of ALMIGHTY GOD KABIR is SAINT RAMPALJI MAHARAJ 🙏🙏😊😊

Is that what you call young girls?

How the hell is he completely wet from sweat and this fella in blue uniform has zero sweat stains? What magic is this? 😁

Great comment.

@@xlukas93 because he is from England xD xD

Those two guide was "Security guard of Sadar Ghat, Dhaka". They are good people that's why they come forward so that vloger do not be scamd by bad people. 🇧🇩

I ran into the same guy (blue shirt) yesterday. His name is Nur. He showed me around for more than 4 hours and even introduced me to his mother :D If anyone's going there and wants his number just answer this comment. I highly recommend him!

Its not true. I know some peiple who did amazing travel stories feom Banglades but only in their mother languages. I do love b&b but a fact that he is famous YT creator doesnt mean that he is the best and that nobody else never did something similar or even better.

@@Biciklom_oko_sveta Give some examples. I might even agree.

@@Biciklom_oko_sveta eh benjamin is just the goat of travel youtube theres nothing to even say

@@Ingens_Scherz Luke Damant presents Bangladesh in a very nice way too

Actually there was a great BBC doc about Bangladesh and the Ganges. There is also an old BBC doc on Bangladesh which is seminal and well known in the history of docs.

Yeap, that keeps him safe

A good trick is also to keep moving and don't stop.

He's British. Walking into other people's countries and acting like we own it is in our genes.

@@babyfaecThat is almost universally true, in many situations. I remember leaving the airport in Puerto Villarta many years ago. Right before the main exist was this long hallway with lines painted on either side. Right on those lines were DOZENS of people speaking with alot of authority, demanding I show them my passport. Unfortunately many hadn't read the notes on their plane ticket mentioning these people as being time share scammers who the moment they get your passport you're stuck listening to a sales pitch for half an hour, basically until you agree to go to one of their presentations. This was obviously something sanctioned by the airport. Just keep walking is a VERY good piece of advice in many situations.

With these genes and income You get to operate within different environments

I think its good to do so because thats where the real people live yk

Those two guys are genuises :) They had a grand old time ditching work (hence the guy changing his shirt) and probably got more money out of good will from all parties involved than they would have made at the harbour. And I'm quite sure nobody noticed that they were gone.

@@Okeanos86 good lads, too, it's small things like this that gives faith in humanity, even if their motive was skipping out on work to make better money, they opened up their world to bald, and in turn us, and we're all much better off for it

​@@Okeanos86It was like an emergency call. And they did a great job responding and rising in the occasion.

Let his Russian adventures be given another chance in the coming years, concerning his banning for now.

Do nod redeem it sanjesh

Do you also encounter how your BSF treats Bangladeshis at the border?

​@@ranjanbiswas3233why would BSF treat illegal crossers nicely? I mean that's the point of their job right?

I wanna come see India one day

Don't worry this isn't actually what it's like. He's chosen what to show for entertainment purposes. This is old Dhaka. Most ex pats etc live in the modern city where it's sushi restaurants and Ferraris.

@@Akuu820[x] doubt

Going somewhere like this would help you get over your social anxiety super quick. You should consider it

can't blame you, even I as a Bangladeshi am often embarrased to see foreigners face this situation. It's definitely not everyone's cup of tea.

@@ahmedkamalhasin2070 It also shows how fun and nice people there are, so dont be too embarrassed.

Because he likes experiences

@@jake-qn3tl not everyone likes experiences like that tho, me being one

@@V8ToYy I'm in between. This is a little overwhelming for sure for most people

Westerners accustomed to quiet and peaceful living environments might find it overwhelming. However, this is the reality for many Bangladeshis and Indians, as well as for people across the entire Indian subcontinent in our daily lives.

​@@jake-qn3tlyou're right, this can be overwhelming for weak people

What does meeting him have to do with anything lol such a pointless addition to your comment

@@AZ-vp7xi kind of pointless to be a dick

@@AZ-vp7xiand bringing that up is pointless too. Spread a little joy once in a while, mate

​@@AZ-vp7xi Relax. You're losing it. Sit down.

hope he cut him a good deal!

I love that thay had generic blue shirts, that looked like some police or security. And that opened them door to any fabric and nonbulic place. What a legends:)

@@crazy-channsame

Heroin

@@tgregiexactly what I was thinking. Noticed him taking it off and hiding it once on the top of that boat. 😂 legend

He should

@@JayCeeMax he has in the past

I mean yeah you can appreciate but I def think he should have, it wouldn't hurt the video, he could just talk about the ad while filming the city and walking around, I would still watch. This gives him an opportunity to make money, but from what I understand he doesn't need the money, he's ok with what he has, it enough to travel and do the videos like he wants.

Except he folded like a cheap suit with plandemic propaganda. Broke me heart.

What you mean? @@ducksinarowpatience3670

its 22 hours since the video now and three quarter of a million views. :D

Been the best travel show going for the past 5 years. Rick Steves is #2

South asian related videos wont have lackings on getting views..india, Bangladesh, pakistan these countries got tons of people and they would rush in when you post something about them or their country.. Common youtube algorithm

😮 You are a great BN!!! 😮

You are British now.

he's a great bluffer but he's had a few scrapes, his saving grace is his schoolboy silliness

💯

Hes a n9nce tho

Dhaka, a 3rd world city, has better and worse areas. Outside the big cities, the rivers (huge), fresh air, flush green fields...amazing, and almost void of tourists.

I felt in his voice some concerns by moment

​@@malzahar33 he does amaizing job to refocus on other thing when ever weird situations happen.

A double decker bus haha

Nah, the Kardashians show is better and also those MTV reality shows.

Imagine banging on a ship for 12 hrs in those conditions, every day

@@iflycessnas4707 I know it's unbelievable that people can work like that. Not a hint of safety or ear protection. It must be unbearable.

They arent poor, nor are they hungry. They have some of the richest culture and cuisine in the world, just because they dont meet modern "western" "standards" that doesnt give you the right to pity them. They are less depressed, suicidal and mentally ill than most europeans and americans. So feel sorry for yourself first before you judge people who dont live the same way as you.

@@chepesantacruz777 much as i agree with you on the cuisine and cultural richness. You are incredibly naive if you think a majority of these people aren't impoverished and by denying this with copium you're acting against them. no one was being judgemental except you.

​@@chepesantacruz777I don't feel sorry for them I certainly wouldn't give them money they don't have the right to beg u for money when they are dressed and fed. Them boys wouldn't leave him alone and the way they just saying money for nothing. Good on him for saying you don't get money for nothing

It is INSANE!!! I'm speechless!

As a Bangladeshi, and Dhaka-ite, I also get overwhelmed by Dhaka sometimes XD

As someone who was raised in a big city, my anxiety could not handle such chaos.

I dont think someone raised in Downtown Manhattan could even handle such chaos tbh

The barrage of chaos is amazing, I would need a 8 hour sleep after 20 min.

Indonesia is a lot richer then Bangladesh though. Not so many beggars either

@@MrJimheeren agreed indonesias standard of life is far better than this.

​@@MrJimheerenTotally Agree 💯

Was it Medan? I got some Medan vibes from what Mr. Bald showed us of Dhakar

Was it jakarta or medan?

people from south-asian countries can be nice too? say wuttt /s

@@QnJhbQ ahaha who knew 😛🥸

​@QnJhbQ : Every country has friendly and unfriendly people. Greetings from the European Union 🇪🇺

​@MichiHofer yes..exactly saying.

@@MichiHofer very true my friend

From this video it seems they just have no boundaries and really want money. That's the opposite of friendly, they're like flies on a corpse

visit with you daughter or wife

One visit is enough 🤣🤣🤣🤣nah bro you need to get more bangla experience. Come here i will buy your tickets🤣🤣

Yeah, that's not a place to visit. You can lie to yourself as much as you want, but reality is what it is.

Did you hold your nose throughout the visit, or pinch it ocassionally or was that just before you disembarked from Bangladesh airways where rumour has it you have to sh*t on Bangladesh so they can recycle it to save their economy?

Anyone understand what that man said to Bald?

This LUL so good😂

The man said "you look like johny sins"

sounded like 'cut the crap' but not 100%@@Chucky134

Those child beggars are honestly annoying, wish their parents would teach them better than that. But the way he deals with them is good, I’m amazed by his patience!!

the fact that one man was rubbing and playing with another mans bald head would be homo in USA ....what a contrast between cultures

Így igaz!🤣

The head drumming was great. Witty people exist in all cultures, and it's great when you find them.

I ran into the same guy (blue shirt) as Ben yesterday too. His name is Nur and he is very friendly person. Showed me around for more than 4 hours.

The infrequent uploads make it all the more special when he does upload, we’re lucky that Mr Bald is producing the best travel content in the history of KZfaq

look at the views.. He is not doing this for charity he's making millions.@@briansexton2011

Benjamin is a geomaxxer God preying on brown women 👼

you knowe why i dont like to travel once im there i think shit i need to go al that way back home!

I wish he was still aloud in Russia, miss those adventures the most.

he definitely did not blend in lol but i know exactly what you mean

Old Dhaka does NOT represent the whole of Bangladesh 🙄

​@@HomeTravelGardenInspo no one said that

Check out Gabriel traveller

I've been watching him for years and I didn't know his name was Ben, he should be calling his channel "Ben, The Bald & Bankrupt"

Facts influenced me to vlog

@@AmalekTroughtyour vids are cool but you should do a lot of research like bald does

​@AmalekTrought I have subscribed. Good luck brother

@@Yasser.Osman.A.Z. Thanks I appreciate it

TBH London area isn't very far from being like Bangladesh.

Do you mean this is not London ?? But I thought this was London 🤔🤔

Get out and see the world. London is 5star compared to much of the world and not bad by world standards

He was making a quip about demographics@@ronniet8802

I thought this was San Fransisco?

Just like you cannot live in an environment like this, us Bangladeshis need some chaos or else we feel like something is missing! So it has both ways haha

atleast its not boring where you live. you can meet people easily.@@gamingtube3172

and the most important that country lives in absolutely different century poverty is painful

​@@gamingtube3172thats why you should all just stay there.

dont ever go to bangladesh or else u can get robbed or killed or something like that...we Indians never visit bangladesh

Come again brother 😊Bangladesh is waiting for you ❤

you wouldn't miss it if you had to live it

The smell*

Where are you from brother

@@pooopeeheard bangladesh

I don't think they are used to tourists so ripping off tourists isn't a thing there. Although extremely hectic, the people seemed to have a small town vibe.

@@toolbaggers Ripping off tourists is absolutely a thing here. But touts are kinda scared to scam foreigners. If they complain and police gets involved it can be very bad for scammers. Locals get scammed all the time, especially is touristy places.

They are of different culture ... not all poor people rip people off, especially the people there are quite close to Sunni Islam there and ripping people off in strict sunni Islamic cultures is not a thing.

They are a majority Muslim country so they will not think of scamming him. The tenets of religion guide their morals.

@@JosephMwema lmao I'm a Bangladeshi. This country is full of scammers. Just open any Bangladeshi news website and see for yourself. Religion has nothing to do with this.

MaINsTrEaM MeDiA btw.

@@mikeFolco What does this mean?

'Blending in', haha

This is literally what media shows

No one in their right mind would compare the filthy Bangladesh with the great nation of India.

@@anwayapimpale2644thank you for sharing this

Man, it is so, so Noisy in your country!!! It is Insane! How do you take this noise?!? Greetings from Bulgaria! :)

​@@vasiovasio It's not really that noisy everywhere in our country. A little glimpse of the busiest and craziest part of the capital city doesn't depict a country's full picture, I believe. Old Dhaka is indeed very noisy, overpopulated and rather poor. Where I live in Dhaka, it's not the same. Lots of love to Bulgaria!

@@shehranwahid6056 thank you! 😊😊😊

​@@shehranwahid6056oh come on! You suggesting it is not crowdy in Dhaka? I know my anxiety level would explode by spending there an hour..

@@vasiovasioIt's not noisy. It's actually ambience😉

As a Bangladeshi, I would say the second guy had excellent conversational English for his socioeconomic status. He may have worked with foreigners or worked abroad before. Rare to see that because spoken English is not something generally taught in Bangladesh before the University level.

@Tpoleful You're absolutely right! Despite his socioeconomic background, he had a quite decent command of the English language, and he was a genuinely kind person. By the way, I'm from India, and many of the things you mentioned about Bangladesh and Bangladeshis can also apply to India and Indians, respectively.

They look like and acted like friendly cops that are proud of their city and country.

which city is better in bangladesh?

@@rizkyadiyanto7922 The Capital Dhaka has less chaotic and cleaner places, there are Chittagong, Rajshahi, Rangpur, Bogra, Khulna, Sylhet, Moulvibazar and many more which are better for tourists.

I wouldn't go to your country sorry

@@marieminshull1400 Thanks. 🥱

​@@marieminshull1400did someone invited you? But feel free to come we don't judge people by their humor

Why are Hindus living there in poor conditions? Are they getting discriminated?

@@leechee5721 Where did you see Hindus?! They are Muslim familys shown in this video, who are living in some shelters. Ben got it wrong when he said some of them are Hindus. In fact you will find thousands of poor Muslims sleeping in the street of Dhaka. You will hardly find any Hindu there.

Sometimes, it’s really far more efficient to hire some local guides who know their way around.

​@@nazmulhassan6732Even so, why would people living in those poor conditions prefer the overcrowded city instead of trying a rural lif? idk if job offers pays up for living conditions...

@@bragagd1618 There isn't enough job opportunities for people in most of the rural areas in Bangladesh. So, they chose to live those places for absolute financial necessity disregarding the health hazards.

You too! I'm pretty sure I had him teach me maths. Maybe his brother.

Did you do well after graduation?

i had two indonesian friends. they spoke like characters from cartoon network and very hard hard to understand. Come on buddy you should not underestimate anyone if he cant speak english as his native language is not english

@@mattuck771 i love my bangladeshi lecturer.. he is so talented and so so genius.. infact he'd won a few awards internationally in engineering fields.. he'd helped us alot in our studies.. our full respect goes to him!.. he's a professor now.. i pray for Allah to pay him the best of life for what he'd contributed to us his students and to our university as well.. Allahumma aaamiin..

Individuals from Western countries, like you presumably, who are accustomed to a peaceful lifestyle, might find it overwhelming. However, this is a common experience for Bangladeshis, Indians, and those hailing from the Indian subcontinent. Speaking as an Indian, I wouldn't necessarily suggest visiting countries in the subcontinent unless you're an adventurous traveller.

@@Utsav_Viradiya It's not about being adventurous it's about not wanting to be depressed or get sick & die. Why would I want to go to somewhere thats covered in trash & has nothing to do & no nature.

Upload the concert plzzzz

Yes- watch Mr Beast hang out with some weirdos while he blows up crap

Yeah this isn’t the typical “I’m staying at this 5-star hotel, eating at this Michelin Star restaurant” travel channel.

It's crazy how he pulls this off way better than any actual TV show ever could have. I like how he's not even trying to be this big production either. So many KZfaqrs try to be this big spectacle but with Bald it's Llike he just picked up a camera one day and decided he was gonna travel and show people for fun. He has no real posting schedule and disappears for months at a time and will probably juat end this channel abruptly someday when he's bored of it and yet he's created one of the best series of videos of all time without even really trying very hard. Such a legend.

I've done my share of traveling, eating in modest eateries, and stayed in modest accommodations. His travels seem completely authentic to the point of hopefully scaring off the non-hackers to the traveling lifestyle.

same here lol
