🇱🇧 Avoid these guys | Thugs hospitality in Baalbek | Dabke party | Lebanon | mE 18

I finally reach the Beqaa valley, and after riding through a few Syrian refugee camps, I stumbled upon a group of guys who invite me for coffee. Then they invite me to stay the night in their house with their family, and I accept. That will turn out to be a great mistake. But at the moment I don't know who they really are, and I enjoy their hospitality. We make a small dabke party.

[@morfusxanubi7172]

This is the case! I believe only one or two of them roped you. They wouldn't need to show you their IDs and bring you to their home if they were real thugs.. they could easily rope you on a side street if they were real criminals. Glad you are safe. This actually could happen anywhere in the world even in first world countries. Be careful out there and I advice you to find a local to show you around when you're in poor or dangerous neighborhoods anywhere in the world. Safety first!

[@morfusxanubi7172]

I enjoy your videos usually. I think you are wrong here. The people showed you good hospitality even when they themselves were struggling and it is unfair to have a title generalizing and accusing them all of being thieves and thugs! It could have ended up much much worse if they were real dangerous criminals.

Hello sir, I just saw this video after I watched your visit to my town Basra in Iraq and left you a comment on one of your videos in Iraq about the word “nus” which means “half” when you were getting a sandwich for 1500 Iraqi dinars. I just want to let you know in the minute 11:05 in this video, one of the guys ( I think the bald guy) made a comment about you are going to get a surprise while you were there. I don’t know how to explain it exactly in English but the phrase that one of them used implied bad intentions. He said “ ferd alah ale” which means when someone gets in trouble. So basically they already Knew something bad is coming your way. Now I could be wrong, but that’s very clear to me they had bad intent towards you and they probably planned all that in a short time and they had to act quickly. Anyways, I’m glad you are safe, and I know you’ll not encounter such a thing in Iraq.

[@KinoYves]

In mind it was very clear that they planned everything from the beginning. So thank you very much for your comment, it does confirm this idea. Really, thank you very for mentioning what they said, it does help me a lot to understand what happened when I was with them.

​@@KinoYves Salut Yves, je suis libanais, je regarde la plupart de tes vidéos merci. Oui, je suis d'accord avec Diaa Z que l'un des gars a dit une citation : " Menna Al aah Eleee " signifie que vous avez été piégé". Je suis heureux que vous ayez pu vous échapper plus tard et le plus important que vous soyez en sécurité grâce à Dieu . Cette situation se produit dans la plupart des pays du monde et ne s'arrête pas seulement au Liban. Le monde est encore bon à explorer et il y a de bonnes personnes au Liban et dans tous les pays du monde. Mon conseil pour vous est de toujours assurez-vous d'avoir pris connaissance des endroits que vous envisagez d'explorer. Prenez soin de vous mon ami et je vous souhaite tout le meilleur, Hussein English: Hi Yves, I'm a Lebanese, I watch most of your videos thank you. Yes, I agree with Diaa Z that one of the guys said quote: " Menna Al aah Eleee" means You've been trapped". I'm glad that you were able to escape later and most important that you are safe thanks to God. This situation does happen in most countries of the world and doesn't stop only in Lebanon. The world is still good to explore and there are good people in Lebanon and in every country all over the world. My advice to you is to always make sure you've learned about the places that you are thinking to explore. Take care my friend and I wish you all the best, Hussein

[@sports__moments]

The guy with the long hair organised everything, he's a bad dude through and through. He called the bearded guy because he spoke English to get you to stay. I'd say all the other guys knew you were going to get robbed. When ever you're around a bunch of dudes siting around doing nothing its a bad sign. No one does anything for free. Have a tea and leave. You also seem to laugh a lot, nervously. To these guys that's a sign of weakness to exploit and they don't respect that. Because you dont speak Arabic, its difficult to gain respect. Its best to be respectful, accept small hospitality and always be wary

[@sports__moments]

Also, I've seen in your videos you accept gifts and services for free. I wouldn’t do that. If you don't want to show you have money in that moment, come back later to the shop and bring a gift or something. That shows respect and they will like and remember you. You have to match hospitality for hospitality. These people are not there for just your personal experiences and satisfactions.

[@sports__moments]

btw I'm not being critical. I just watch your videos and think how I could behave in these situations to be safe, primarily and these are just my thoughts

[@KinoYves]

I completely understand your point, and it does make sense. Regarding the relationship with them, I think that my behavior did not really matter, whatever I would have done, they would have always tried to rob me. Regarding gifts, I accept gifts because in the end I don't really care if people give me things or not (I don't get satisfied by receiving a gift, I never receive any gift for my birthday or christmas, because I actually don't like to receive gifts), and I don't feel that I owe anything to people who give me things, because often people give for themselves (often people give not to make the person who receives the gift happy, but they give because giving makes them happy, and makes them feel that they have high morals). And personally, I don't really like to give, because then I feel as if I was trying to buy sympathy And regarding who dominates who, I also don't really care, if people want to think that they are better than me, or that they dominate me, very good for them, I honestly don't care.

The people of these regions are good people (I believe their family is like that). But when I saw the man with the long hair (his look caused me a certain suspicion). These motorcycles, cars, Balenciaga (can be made in China) and elsewhere make me suspicious. I live in Brazil and this is a typical gangster from my country. The only difference is that they don't try to make friends, they rob you of your strength. Unfortunately =(

Never judge the Book by its cover. But Good and bad people are everywhere. Same in United States. There are some Homeless people who are sweet and Genuinely good. But there are other who will steal things so they can buy Drugs.

[@pakan357]

That's why (I think I can speak for many Eastern Europeans) we are so suspicious of hospitality of other cultures. Even if genuine, it seems too forced. When we see this behavior, the first thing we think is "how is he going to rob me now". I saw a few Yves' videos, the hospitality blew my mind, but this long-haired dude gave bad vibes since the beginning. But I probably would've easily get caught in his trap too. I was so anxious just watching the video, because the moment he sat down, it was impossible to leave the place. That's why if somebody smiles at me on the street and tries to begin a conversation, I will avoid him as much as I can. "Expensive" cars, bikes and clothes are suspicious too. Yes, don't judge the book by its cover, but sometimes prejudice can save your life. Most of the family seemed genuine, though.

[@irfanahmed7847]

@@pakan357 what you are taking about is inner feeling it can be right or wrong depending on certain elements and can be shaped by cultural values. But what I was taking about is media brainwashing and racial profiling. Having a thick beard does not make a guy bad. Many of the pious people in past before mass media had long beards the Abrahimic faith prophet, Jesus as portrayed in church paintings, many well known science figures such as Einstein, Newton, Charles Darwin the list goes on. Media want to make men look and resemble woman hence they keep promoting clean shaved feminine look of men as the heroes.

I could see the danger already in the eyes of the guy in 5:01 approaching you and inviting you for coffee. THERE it all started! Some good rules for you..DO NEVER BE with a group of idle young people like this... Those guys was planing not only to rob you, but also to kidnap you and ask ransom from France, which can be very traumatic even if you survive it. There was some red flags, to learn from next time: 1. CHARISMATIC guy with the weed necklace, he seems to be the one keeping you distracted from listning to your inner alarm bells. 2. The over exaggeration generosity and attention. Ask yourself WHY do you think they will feed you and waste their money on you? Those people are poor. 3. The fleshy and expensive bikes and cars they showed you. Do you sincerely believe those people afford buying things lika that? They are most probably stolen or robbed from other victims. 4. No one seems to go to work. What are they living on? They didn't seem to do anything else than waiting for their prey like appear. In general I would say avoid POOR areas, even if most of them are extremely nice, there will always be 1 and 2 who are taking advantage of the lawlessness in that area. And sometime 1 and 2 is just enough to make you regret the time you set your foot there. There is a reason why those places are empty of tourists. Thanks God you survived this, I don't believe this was their first victim... The elders knew this as well, that's why they where not very chatty and kept low profile, as what they will do with you is part of their life to survive.

I've been all over the world and Lebanon is like anywhere good and bad people. I stayed and moved to Baalbek and the amount of rubbish people talk about here is ridiculous... try living in Europe you will know all about crime and theift

[@CGZ.]

Bro only an insane man goes alone to baalbeck. Stranger (it is what itis) + baalbeck alone = run away. The bikes that you saw hidden in the house are probably stolen

[@KinoYves]

Yes, I was definitely too optimistic, lesson learned

[@wzupppp]

Their energy was off right away for me. Youre brave to have stayed there

[@khalidalali186]

Reminds me of the Roma gypsies I ran into in Bulgaria and Romania back in 2018 lol. Things escalated for the worse quite quickly I must say.

[@KinoYves]

Yeah... it was definitely a big mistake to trust those guys.

[@khalidalali186]

I’m delighted that you made it out safely. Stay safe, and thanks for inspiring me to travel to Slovenia next month. I love walking, trekking, and running long distances. And 🇸🇮 seems to be the perfect place to be without a car this upcoming July, along with escaping the heat of Abu Dhabi.

It will be better if you go with someone you trust from labnan so can guide you to safe and nice place

[@entertatin7348]

[@machiavellian7490]

And this was in Leeds!

[@liamnorth555]

I can totally understand why you trusted them they are good actors.

[@leokamil6284]

Ithink the Parents also knows the game .And the first group brought the two seems they are Bosses for that Village.

woow man, now im so much afraid to visit lebanon , ill viral your story to all my iraqi people who might just thinking to visit such a bloodyhell land

[@IrishLincoln]

These guys are probably drug dealers or smugglers.

Tu as bu le café avec des combattants du Hezbollah ... félicitation lol

😂😂😂, ils sont sunnites, donc pas du Hezbollah, mais c'était quand même des bandits.

[@sigmarssohn81]

sometimes i wish scammers like that get what they give to others

[@alimohamad9387]

Kina around 11:05 they said a word in the lebanese dialogue witch is hopefully he is stuck with us

[@KinoYves]

You are the second person to tell me that. Thank you so much for the translation, it confirms what I thought, which is that they planned everything from the very beginning.

[@anonimct5262]

wow I was very impressed that you can penetrate the lives of the rebels and film it, they are also enthusiastic about showing how their lives are but it's a shame that their brains have been implanted with criminal soul chips from childhood😣😣 we usually see them in the media while playing their weapon😆 Thankfully at least they can made a jokes too & glad you sir safe from them😊

[@IceBreaker.22]

i remember a night in the marocan desert where i shared a meal with people, at the start it was very ok and near the end they put some ISIS music like and i never felt so scared in my life. So i left quickly and had no problem but i will remember this strange night all my life. When you re backpacking the first rule is safety first, only trust your feelings.

[@KinoYves]

Scary story! Yeah, lesson learnt, better to be safe, I will not risk it again to sleep at strangers home.

[@IceBreaker.22]

@@KinoYves Je viens de tomber sur ta chaine et je trouve tes vidéos vraiment bien faites et très intéressantes. Si tu es encore sur la route je te dis bonne merde et merci.

[@fl4shb4ck7]

ISIS music?

[@IceBreaker.22]

@@fl4shb4ck7 like Islamic extremism music.

[@RVSMX]

@@IceBreaker.22 and how did you know, did you understand the language or you assumed anything arabic is ISIS?

[@greenvalley369]

They gave you 4000€ worth of entertainment

[@nahuelcutrera]

They obviously didn't rob you, some neighbour maybe or someone passing by found your bike and saw the oportunity, thieves are oportunist. They obviously wanted to cut the back part of your bike and take it away with your things rolling with the wheel but somebody appear and they had to run, if it were somebody from the family they wouldn't have to run away and leave the job unfinished. They were an awesome family, and they made a great video for you, is kind of sad that you thought badly of them. When you are in a dangerous area you don't just leave the bike there, you have to take it inside and close the door, believe me I live in a dangerous area. They were definitely not the robbers.

[@drama-uu1ox]

You god man bro

[@lifeisdesignedtobreakyourh293]

Goes around comes around. But you are a good guy thats why nothing happend to u. But you deserved to get scared alitle bit, how can u be so crazy and go places like this. Now u know next time what not to do. I am so happy nothing bad happend to you. Be carefull. I love your videos❤❤❤❤❤ love from kurdistan

[@alexmirhos1642]

Wait to see his video from Shatila. I was worried for him all the time ,thinking get out of there..Shatila has a sad and tragic history . He is a good person and probably universe or God help him in mysterious ways.

[@liamnorth555]

I wonder if it was someone else because the bike was hidden but only under a sheet so it could have been anyone. The cutting of the bike rack is very strange though...I cant really explain that, maybe they were trying to remove the rack and got disturbed or something? They don't seem like a poor family and very hospitable and genuine.

[@leokamil6284]

They can also do that becouse they though he could live the bike there if was not possible to use it again. Remember that Man has 2 Motorbaike seems he like to fix and use could be that he want that too

[@yusufgrisdale5740]

23.20 and until 23.30 I couldn't stop laughing.

[@tillykelp9744]

I am so sorry this happened to you Yves. Sadly, you were 'groomed' by the devious men. I hope your journey improves.

[@KinoYves]

Yeah, not everyone is nice in this world... I should not have accepted this invitation.

[@tillykelp9744]

@@KinoYves You were not to know. Everyone before this lot was honest and sincere. Thankfully they did not harm you physically.

[@KinoYves]

Indeed, I was probably less cautious because everyone was so nice to me before I met these guys. And yes, the main thing is that I managed to stay physically safe 😊

[@KinoYves]

Indeed, it's not always easy to judge the situation, even though it was obviously risky to stay with them, I got carried away by the filming and the hospitality.

[@Pressplay_Media_EU]

a good lock would be suitable for your bike , as it would be far too much effort to try to steal and would make noise and draw attention to what is obviously a bike theft in progress . they will not want to go through this - lock it to something unmovable

[@sabrimo4020]

I'm glad you made it safe Yves. But you shouldn't tarnish that family who hosted you because of one bad apple or a couple.

[@vita3438]

man you just passed by a refugee camp thats how they are hospitable with syriens who are like them in egypt refugees are blended in the sociaty schools, hospitals and everything like a normal sitizen
