OMG! I Found GOLD In Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹 La Brea Pitch Lake

La Brea Pitch Lake is found in southwest Trinidad in the village of La Brea. The lake measures approximately one hundred (100) acres (41 hectares), and is estimated to be two hundred and fifty (250) feet (76 metres) deep in the centre. It holds about ten million (10,000,000) tons of pitch. It is situated about twelve hundred (1200) yards from the sea, in a depression immediately south of a 140 feet high hill, from the summit of which the ground slopes gently northwards to the sea.

Never knew there was was so much education to the pitchlake. That guide Amena should be a researcher for the government. So knowledgeable.

[@MRSZ5440]

Very good geological history Ms. Amena you never get to old to learn something new. I always love the Earth sciences.Thanks for the vlog AT Louisville, KY USA

[@jacquelinemadoo2616]

Thank you for refreshing my memory of visiting the lake in 1986. It brought back memories to me. It's a natural wonder of the world along with the Steelpan that was invented in Trinidad. I am so happy that you provided educational content. Once again, you proved you are a special lady. Blessings and continue to enjoy your visit ❤❤🎉

[@jenniferheadley6719]

I am a Trini living in NY. I have never been to the pitch lake. I thank you for the information and keep up the good work.

[@charglas1820]

Very good video. Best content production of the islands from all the recent vloggers that came to the Caribben islands . My humble opinion. Keep it up AT.

AM SO GLAD YOU CAME BACK TO US ❤❤❤.....BE SAFE & CONTINUE THE GREAT CONTENT !!!

[@user-dv5sr2rn2x]

Thank you African Tigress, for visiting my village of LA Brea. I left over 20 years ago but my memories are very fond....As a young person growing up in that area I spent countless times bathing, exploring and just having fun in the lake. I went to the Brighton Anglican school in the 70's (very close to the pitch lake) with Amelia and some of the other tour guides. I can also remember the tool shed being in it's original position/location. Keep up the great work you are doing AT and continue providing us with all the wonderful content. 🇹🇹 🇰🇪

[@Holywood_Entertainments]

Hi Tigress, Watching from Buruburu,🇰🇪 Nice content.

[@ryanmahabir664]

My sweet Trinidad 🇹🇹 is so blessed

[@halleyne4686]

Looking at my old home town. Thank you AT for showing my brothers and sisters in Africa a wonder of the world. Viewing from Canada.

[@islandgirl3330]

AT, I am glad you are doing this video. I am sure a lot of your subscribers are unaware of our Pitch Lake. This is a good geography lesson for all. When I was in elementary school, we were taken there for a school excursion. I remember some of the homes nearby were propped with a few logs at one side, because the pitch was eroding the soil under the houses.

[@roodjoseph7086]

watching from the usa ms keep up the good work I see you fall in love with the Caribbean

[@GenevieveWaller-pk3xg]

When you come to the Caribbean, you never want to leave. It is magical.

[@rosemariegray-olabiran7991]

The water is very warm in pitch lake. I l love that place

[@laurieconway3834]

Awesome content, continue lifting Trinidad and Tobago up where they belong, bravo 👏🏽 👏🏽👏🏽

[@margueritedyerhunt]

I love Pitch Lake... All Natural...

[@carole3877]

Great history lesson. Your videos never disappoint

[@garvenglish]

I honestly thought when Ms. Amena was saying "dogs get trapped, cows get trapped, birds get trapped" she was about to say " and before I became a tour guide, I get trapped", ahahahahahaha. But on a serious note, this was the most COMPREHENSIVE tour of Lake Asphalt I have EVER SEEN. Ms Amena knows her stuff. Strict like our primary school teachers though, lmao, when she says "don't move", you feeling as if she going to pick a hibiscus whip, Ahahahahahahahahaha. But she is a darling and hats off to her and her astronomical wealth of knowledge. And to you African Tigress, thank you for your fortitude and determination to visit and showcase the abundance of our delightful and loving citizens, phenomenal sights, spectacular natural wonders and the remarkably positive energies of our twin island republic of Trinidad and Tobago. I absolutely loved how you included the images and videos of the critical things Ms. Amena was highlighting, for ease of reference for international viewers. You are AMAZING and ALWAYS welcomed home to us. God bless our Nation and God bless you African Tigress.

[@marianmckennon7672]

Quite interesting and fascinating. Thnks for sharing this educational fact about Trinidad.❤❤😢

[@earlyncarrera6306]

I love this episode, haven’t been to this lake since I was a child, love how you’re being educated on this.😊

[@dgrant9177]

Thanks for showing us the richness of the island that I’m learning through your video. May God continue to guide and protect you in your travels. Blessings

[@niecyalley6546]

Great coverage of the pitch lake, true content from my home town. Big up three hands now called short street❤❤

[@Travel_plus_adventure]

This is a field trip spot mosts Trinis probably went to in primary school. Thats how i visited many years ago. The guide probably did mention that the lake also pushs up artifacts from the first ppl, animals etc from timr to time. They're kept in the little museum you showed at the end.

[@russellperry6155]

Another Smashing Video AT very educational and knowledgeable experience Amazing

[@vithaphilema6613]

interested lakes and good information about the village

Hi African Tigress we’re great full for the great job that you are doing in the Caribbean and I surprised the last time I have been in Trinidad I met some creole speaking people I spoke to them in creole that was so nice.African Tigress for life.

[@leslieanncortez]

Amazing content. Learned so much… Something like a phenomenon!

[@user-sx5ox4hs9r]

Excellent Content and Questions African Tigress 👌 😊❤❤ The Best 🙏 ❤❤ Love the repeat Questions- If I take some Pitch from the La Brea Pitch Lake in Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹 to my country.. Will it grow 🤔 😀 😉 That's the intelligent business woman in you 😉 ❤❤ Had me laughing 😆 😄 Keep up the great highly professional works👍👏👌 Blessings for you & T&T 🙌 🙏 🙏 🙏 😇 😇 🌎 🗺 🇹🇹 ❤❤

[@hyacinthrosamond]

Oh my gosh Ms Tigress, I enjoyed this video. Seen other good videos on the Pitch Lake too.Our Pitch Lake is just AMAZING!!! First time seeing this lady, Amena, she is a boss!!! Wow! Her explanations were nicely executed and at a good pace for people like me who are not too science - based.Bravo, love the presence of her beautiful grand kids! 🇹🇹💕

[@halleyne4686]

From my neck of the woods. Please note there are veins of the pitch throughout La Brea. If a house is built on a vein there will be shifting due to the growing of pitch. If your property is not on a vein you'll have no problem. The veins create problems with the road even after repaving. It may take a while but eventually the pitch grows out and creates bad road for driving.

[@fulljoy3603]

I just love all your content , keep bringing it African tigress

[@elsanash8888]

Greetings African Tigress. Very informative information. I am a Trini watching in the USA. Enjoy your stay in Trinbago.❤❤ .

[@julianablackman5914]

I enjoyed this. I am a Trini living abroad and had visited the Pitch Lake several times in my childhood. As I never had a guided tour before, I learned so much from this video. Thank you so much to the very knowledgeable tour guide Amena.

[@prosperousnatasha8153]

Sulfur is good for the skin, it’s sold here in the U.S as an acne treatment

[@fergusonlove659]

Oh yes right there we went on dip in the sulfur waster its was so excited i love Trinidad 🇹🇹 coming back soon 😂

[@michelleclarke1022]

Good work 😊

[@edmundjoseph8828]

Great

[@anniemc2968]

There is also in Los Angeles, but I didn't know about Bermuda, so you learn something new every day.

[@gd1807]

Not Bermuda. She said the one in Venezuela is called lake Bermuda.

[@curtiss744]

They’re called the la brea tar pits in Los Angeles , the one in Venezuela is known as lake Bermudez but the one in Trinidad is the largest commercially viable asphalt lake in the world

[@DevonJohn-y7u]

Welcome to LA Brea hope you had fun

[@charleeharris2976]

Lovely video African Tigress! I enjoyed the informative video, subtitles, visual caiman display, information in your signature, etc. Your video quality is improving. You need to invest in a drone and some editing classes to really push the envelope. This lady is very knowledgeable about the area so BIG UP to Miss Amena. How can I get in contact with her? Oh ok, I saw at the end you asked her. Nice job! In the future, you may want to use subtitles because others may not understand her accent. Can you put her contact info in your signature? Great job though. I love watching you grow.

[@user-ne2eu1fj5x]

Good ❤❤❤

[@timothymitchell934]

Thanks for the videos beautiful queen I hope you live forever 💖

[@jahmala5336]

Wonderful, being from Jamaica I learned about this place in high school, and it took a lady from Kenya, for me to see and know more about the pitch lake. One thing I love about your work is, although it’s entertaining it’s also educational. Keep up the good work. Don’t lime too much. BIG⬆️ yu self Af Ti.

[@anniemc2968]

NOT the only one in the world. Venezuela also has one, which is much smaller than Trinidad's and the area is also called La Brea.

[@OAlexable]

That was mentioned in the video 🙄🙄😒

[@paul-lq5nw]

Trinidad has the only pitch lake in the world that the raw pitch can be exacted and sell no where in the world has those natural deposits Venezuela's pitch lake is very small in comparison to this lake

[@anniemc2968]

Yes, but I had not gotten there yet.

[@gloriaroffey6884]

Trinidad has the only usable pitch in the world all the other pitch lakes have the consistency of crude oil.

[@kerubel1436]

Thanks for the education

[@halleyne4686]

Dont know for sure but I was told there are no mosquitoes in the pitch lake due to the sulfur water.

Greetings AT, I see that your country men has taken to the streets . Economic pressure is hurting the local people.The youths are fed up and had enough.

[@hazelmodeste378]

In Trinidad and Tobago there are many many opportunities for the youth. Education is free up to university. Free health care and many more. Some of the youths in Trinidad are lazy. Tell them to go back to school. You don't know so don't form opinions.
