Hawaii is Out, Turkmenistan is IN | YMH Highlight

[@nathanhill2369]

First dudes like Gombe is AMAZING, all while standing at the border…just outside of Gombe

[@amyqb117]

It's simply a way to show that he is infact in the area. Is Gombe a place recognisable to you without the sign that says "Welcome to Gombe"?

[@briggyb]

I have a friend who travels all over the world for national security jobs. Just because you don't see the danger doesn't mean it's not there. This guy is being irresponsible by telling people they should go as well, like he can personally ensure they'll be safe.

[@amyqb117]

This place in Gombe, Nigeria is more safe than some of the other states that was termed as (relatively) safe on that Nigerian map. The more further north you go the uncertainty with safety increases. However, people who want to travel "casually" would 1. never go to places like this, 2. would not take a single video as proof. The guy simply gave his opinion.

[@TipToeVertigo]

I lived in Ashgabat Turkmenistan for work a couple years ago. It was a wild place. Super safe cause nobody was allowed into the country and the people fear the govt. People there were some of the nicest people I’ve ever met, but yeah it’s essentially North Korea without nukes. All white cars, the city lights up like Vegas at night with most buildings unoccupied, the country has a strange obsession with Akon, they have mosques but everyone I met wasn’t religious and loved drinking, and they think Borat is the funniest movie ever. I could go on and on, and it was actually the first country I’ve been to outside the US, so talk about culture shock 😂

[@Blashmack]

Akon? You mean the singer Akon?

[@TipToeVertigo]

@@Blashmack the one and only. He would come and put on shows for the President there and they’d televise it on the state run media. The locals all thought this black guy I worked with was Akon, simply because he was black and one of the only to ever be in Turkmenistan. Good times

[@Blashmack]

@@TipToeVertigo Hah, awesome. I've noticed people from ME countries REALLY love some artists like Akon. Like have them as their phone background and play them on full blast in malls and random stairwells.

[@TipToeVertigo]

@@Blashmack yeah it reminded me of Kim Jong Uns love of Dennis Rodman, just so random and behind in times. I had Turkmen friends that also loved Borat to the point where they could quote the whole movie and would use it to make fun of Kazakhstan. They loved randomly stealing American entertainment characters too, like if there was a grand opening for a restaurant it wasn’t uncommon to see SpongeBob, Spider-Man and discount Mario dancing to Akon at the grand opening. It was so funny 😂

[@ChristopherSibert]

The final episode of this series is going be those *adventurers* on their knees with a room sized flag nailed to the wall behind them and guys with balaclavas reading into a camera.

[@aaabbbccc985]

Have you seen the video going around where a bunch of these guys have died? It's a girl doing the voice over of those peoples videos, and they're like "hey welcome to Haiti, today were going into the village of blah blah blah" then she chimes in and is yeah he died. Over and over

[@jakekunz5168]

Bro we had so many people in this world, and they’ve gotten so bored, that they’ve convinced themselves that they need to go somewhere that no one has ever heard of and prove it’s not dangerous. 😂😂

[@Timbo360]

That’s what you get when information becomes easily accessible and spontaneous for dumb people 😂 used to have to go to the library and read multiple books or encyclopedias 😅

[@comfykeegs]

[@jedinavi6736]

Bruh, there’s people dying in the streets in LA lol… that’s NOT the danger they are talking about. I keep thinking this video will end by him getting tackled by a bunch of locals

[@amyqb117]

Very RARELY a local will simply just attack (at least in Nigeria). Unless there is actual huge payoff to doing so and they are actually criminals. Many are easily paid off with small amounts of money and are really just looking for a good time with the foreigner. But well there are places even I as a Nigerian wont go in Nigeria, but the brave do.

[@daveblack2339]

I’d visit any of these place over downtown LA

[@PLF...]

of course you wouldn't

[@JoHnAnDjAnEdOe81]

You guys need to look up a dude named Drew Binsky. He has been to EVERY country and goes to all these dangerous citys. Not sure if he is on the Tok but defenitly on here. You will get a great laugh I promise.

I'm just here to see Tom freak out at the airport staff.

[@minnesotatomcat]

I used to work in a case ih assembly plant that built the huge self propelled cotton pickers. We built a run of them once that were being sold to Turkmenistan. We couldn’t even fully assemble them, any lights or mirrors or pretty much anything that could be easy ripped off and stolen had to be left off and put in a big crate and shipped separately. We even had to put locks on the body panels that shrouded the engine area so it would at least slow them down from completely ransacking the machines before they got to wherever exactly they were going.

[@joshhand6510]

If I challenged the Mommies, could I be promised hate from wherever? Lol

[@nbvw3]

I can relate. I have the dubious pleasure of going to Haiti next month. Although I am not doing it to prove anything to anyone, unlike purely thrill-seeking travellers like this one (which is fair). But that won't make it any less intense or potentially kidnappy, I fear.

[@Trump.is.a.nazzii]

Whatcha goin for? That sounds interesting! But kidnappy lol

[@nbvw3]

@@Trump.is.a.nazzii Bizarrely, it's an art event! These things blossom at the most unlikely places.

I love being able to laugh at this bc I’m exactly that kind of person having taken trips to Ethiopia+ Russian mining town in the arctic+ some other seemingly sketch locales recently….whereas Hawaii and Paris etc bore the shit outa me….say what you want about semi sketch towns in Eastern Africa….drinking strange drinks w locals in remote little known villages in East Africa or Central Asia is anything but boring, Turkmenistan def on the list!

[@BeeHash]

[@TheFergo911]

People should check out these channels who do these sort of trips. Its a comedy show when you try to predict how these guys are going to disappear in the same day they arrive to some of these places. Kurt Cuz is one to look at, I think a lot of people who are in their 20's are high on going to these places because of channels like Kurt's. I don't hate the guy but that dude is asking for a bad day like none one else.

[@PoisonedSnowx]

I was born and raised in Mexico. I lived a normal life, went to school and to work. Never had any major incidents. But we'd occasionally hear about the family friend or cousin that got kidnapped, murdered, disappeared or extortioned. Just because you see it doesn't mean is not there. And yes, if you're American you're even more of a target because for them, you're rich. In Mexico the median salary is $500 USD a month so $5k can be a lot of money.

You found a couple news articles. Imagine the articles you find about the usa. Lol

[@BigBear--]

Yeah...except those types of articles are rarely the top search results if u just search the country name. Americans are so god damn clueless. They think the rest of the world is just like them, just slightly diff food and language. You are a target in at least half the countries, just by nature of being an American... with people that just outright hate your guts, or want to either rob you, scam you, or kill you. Scam/Rob at a minimum. Most will smile to your face, while behind your back someone is pulling money out your pocket...that's if you're the lucky one. Unlucky one's find out real fast why normal people don't travel to these places without protection, and that they should've been more careful.

[@amyqb117]

Hahah literally. My first time in the US, I read the news a couple of hours after I landed and some guy already shot his girlfriend OUTSIDE in Pittsburg. Bruh.

Missionaries go to these places. There is a picture of a remote tribe that are I believe cannibals. They are on the beach. I think because of the tasty missionary they dragged back home. Don't worry about that red on the map.
