You all make such a good team, it’s unbelievable. Russ - thinking quickly and immediately figuring out what goes on in the robber‘s heads, Jarred - although having the experience in Martial Arts deciding not to try to stop them in any way and then Harry - being so courageous and saying No to getting out of the van but at the same time deciding to give away those important things with the intention to save themselves. You couldn’t have done it any better. You had to give them the stuff, otherwise you never know if they would have been satisfied and have done something worse. And not to forget Stan - taking in the news so calmly and then making this documentary out of it! Brilliant!! The editing, beautiful!

[@Blandge]

It was statistically the most likely to happen in either South Africa or Angola as they have the highest crime index of countries in Africa. It was honestly just a matter of time. Publishing their route and location, highly publicized, driving an extremely recognizable vehicle. They aren't even 1/4 of the way through the journey, and this is the second attempted robbing so far (along with the time Russ almost got robbed running after dark), and it will most likely happen again multiple times. They just need to be prepared for it, and they'll probably be fine.

This time I want to thank Harry for being the perfect person for project Africa. Sure having someone that could communicate with the robbers is one thing, but Harry being so chill and down to earth was the perfect personality to deal with such a horrendous situation. The way the story was explained, Harry remaining so calm and collected, while trying to de-escalate maybe saved someone's life that day. Definitely not your fault the passports were taken, I think It was an excellent plan to get them to go away ASAP. Good luck to the team, thanks for being so positive about the country.
