This narrator cracks me the hell up.these docs are awesome.i love watching them.i live in the states and I don’t drive. I dip around on a bike and sometimes I get a bit disillusioned when see all the cars zipping by my bike but then I go home and watch one of these docs and I instantly feel better about my means of getting around. These people all have some serious grit!

Never thought id be bingewatching these. They can teach us a thing or too about helping out eachother, no matter what. Of course bickering will happen,bur there is no violence. They inspire me. Maybe i'll finally get to know my neighbors

[@maurice2014]

No violence? There's tons of violence in Congo. This is an edited documentary. You need to realize that everyone everywhere only knows or has to deal with what circumstances/ conditions put before them. Attitude is key. People always say things like "aww they still smile 🥺😥" but they are grateful for what have and don't know any better.

[@chicagogyrl4846]

They meant that there is no violence in this video, or between these particular people. Not the entire nation!

Keep in mind that this was filmed years ago. The miner mentioned he worked in Angola back in 96" like it was recent. Things may have improved.

[@lpe655]

Yes but he has been caught multiple times by native speakers in the comments saying he exaggerates what the ppl are saying. In one of these videos a guy said kids through rocks through his windshield putting a huge hole in it and the narrator said it was from bandits who shot out the windshield. These ppl live so roughly compared to most of us watching these videos so there really isn't the need to exaggerate that much.

[@trentlane250]

@@lpe655 yes and no. I dont believe in comparing yourself to others because yes to these people back then maybe not so much now that life was totally ordinary. But it doesnt really help you or I does it. We still have problems unique to our situation so however or whatever goes on in some African hell hole is their thing.

The narrator should get an award

[@jo19479]

This is a great documentary, when one complains of hardships living in the U.S. they should be reminded of people such as these that truly know struggle and hardships. The benefits are few if any at all, but they strive to make the day the best they can. Little food to none, no plastic bottles filled with drinking water to quench their thirst, no doctors, or facilities for bathing or otherwise, they are a people with unbelievable drive and give the glory to God no matter what the circumstance. This should be shown in our schools to show our children what life is in the Congo, maybe just maybe they might appreciate what they have, and they might realize the difficulties that they have are not difficulties at all. Thank you for sharing this journey ~~

[@recruitmenthub7620]

Joe Neumeister well said. Our children complain about Uber eats delivering their food orders late like it’s the end of the world. This is a real struggle that our people in Africa have to face on a daily basis. I’m now more appreciative of what me and my family have. What may seem little to us, is plenty for those like in Congo and other parts of the world. Always be thankful for what you have because someone else has it worse than you.
