Can't imagine he has to travel aaalll this way every time he has to be in a video, thats a lot of time, energy and effort. Very grateful for everyone in team Reactistan, thank you so much for sharing with us🙏

[@stefwhit22]

I was wondering that too

[@lazrseagull54]

Mama Mustafa has to be one of the most remotely located youtube stars in the world. I wish him and everyone in his village much health and happiness!

[@Nooticus]

So So True ahaha

[@bannedone3ice138]

Absolutely 💯

[@cynthiaahern9081]

Only God knows how Mustafa travels all the way to make the reaction videos. I'm impressed again.

[@InvestigatingDavidCrowley]

I'm speechless! That is a L-O-N-G way to travel for not only the videos, but for everyday life necessities. Seeing how far Mama Mustafa has to travel makes me even more grateful for everything that comes with ease here in America.

[@edgarburlyman738]

Are you kidding, everything in America is super far apart like this. Only difference is you probably drive a huge air conditioned SUV.

[@InvestigatingDavidCrowley]

@@edgarburlyman738 LOL That's funny!!!! Um, no, no huge air conditioned SUV. Small car, very uncomfortable, and no, things are NOT 5 hours apart.

[@edgarburlyman738]

@@InvestigatingDavidCrowley Average commute is 45 minutes and that's EVERY DAY of the week. Mustafa's trip could probably be 2 hours if they built an 8-lane superhighway like the ones here but somehow I don't think he'd want that, 100k people dying in wrecks every year, countless animals and it's impossible to walk or ride a horse on them.

[@InvestigatingDavidCrowley]

@@edgarburlyman738 Average commute is also done in a city where the time spent driving is due to traffic. That's a far cry from having to drive for five hours, in a very slow manner due to terrain. The ease in which we are able to travel is a luxury compared to what the villagers where Mustafa lives has to use. We are BEYOND blessed here in America. Life, comparatively speaking, is easy. We have paved roads, we have grocery stores that sell just about everything our hearts could want, and we have places to just stop and eat whenever we want...or, or we can order food to be delivered. Yes, we do have it way easier here, there's not even a comparison.

[@edgarburlyman738]

@@InvestigatingDavidCrowley Driving in traffic is the WORST. I'd much rather drive slow over terrain, or fast on a highway. "everything our hearts could want" "whenever we want" Sure, if you live in a big city and have unlimited money it is like that.

[@mattycakes1161]

Wow, he really lives in a remote area. Big respect to him for traveling to make the videos, now we all know how difficult it must be, especially for an older man to make that journey on a regular basis.

[@AliSafiaduo]

Yes indeed. There is lot of distance to travel for Mustafa. We just showed part of it. After crossing these mountains and arriving in the near by town he has to take another bus and then travel for additional 8 hours to reach Karachi (the metropolitan city of Pakistan), where we shoot our videos.

[@carson5196]

@@AliSafiaduo How did you find/ enlist Musafa to do the videos? Is he related to another member of the cast/crew? He is so far away from the city and there can't be much communication. Not sure if there was any electricity in his community but it appears to be not electrified and therefor quite isolated.

Since the village is so remote, is it customary to bring necessary or essential items to the villagers instead of token gifts given to a host? I'm eager to see Mama's village. He is so proud of it ☺️

[@basitali9583]

Yes, that's right. That's why they brought fruits and vegetables as a gift.

Travelling to Mustafa's village reminds me so much of travelling in Arizona and the desert southwest of the U.S. Almost identical scenery! Just high desert. I would say you can see Native American dwellings that would be very similar. Personally I love living in the desert and on solar power. Just the hottest summer months make it a little rough.

i cant wait to see all the footage you took from mama mustafa & his village. To be honest, i already saw a video of him, made by the brahui tv channel, and he was living in kind of a tent back then..

I love this! I've been bingewatching all ur personal channels videos i didnt know u were making them! You show everything i wanted to see! Wow the drive gave me such anxiety! I got a flat tire in North Carolina driving from Florida to NY and i felt like i was in the middle of nowhere. What do you do if you get a flat tire anywhere across the mountains???? Wow the village! It doesn't even seem like they have access to things like flour! Do they make every single thing themselves??? You guys eat so much in Pakistan that's so hard for the women :( Does anyone work other jobs? Or everyone just takes care of their animals and land? I can't even imagine living like that for a day much respect! Thank you for all that you do!

[@AliSafiaduo]

They usually carry a spare tire or a kit to fix it. Or they ask for help from a near by village. They mostly take care of cattle or farms. Yes it's indeed hard for women. People here usually consume 3 meals a day and but a lot of tea. Thank you for commenting. Much love and respect 😊

Where is this village in balochistan? Which area

[@sidheart8905]

beautiful vilage of dear Musatafa dada ji

[@teinelona7]

Watching this video again I realize again how much mama Mustafa has to go through to get to Karachi just to share with us all. It's no wonder he has no kind words for modernity when he's so far from it yet he and his family exist! His comments about healthy living and eating I think stem from being so remote that one cannot expect to make it to a hospital for medical issues. That you have to take care of yourself to avoid that at all cost because hospital care is not realistic. Just like my tribal people of south Pacific we make medicines from the plants around us. And our surroundings are absolutely beautiful especially when untouched by "civilization".

[@deborahgodley6980]

I think I heard mama say this is in Balochistan,which I know is an independent region and very undeveloped with sparse population.It has been pretty cut off due to natural mountain environment but in recent decades has had some political tension.I have been on many long and windy mountain rds but that one in the video was pretty terrifying! You did a great job with the commentary and videoing! I watched the home tour videos and found them fascinating! Thanks to both of you for making the trip to share the experience with us.Is there anything that could be done to help Mama's son who is unable to walk????

[@s.s.m9936]

Balochistan is a province of Pakistan. Iran also have a provinces of same name. The shoot videos in Karachi. A city in another province. Mama took bus ride for this route to reach a town n from there he took another bus to reach Karachi which took 8 hours.

[@tom_something]

I've noticed that a lot of buildings in these videos are described as being made of mud. This makes me very curious, because I don't know much about construction but of course I know you can't build a stable structure out of just dirt and water, so of course there's a process involved that might be interesting not just to me hopefully to other viewers. I wonder if you might consider making a video or series of videos showing how these buildings are put together, and also helping viewers understand why they must be built that way. I live in the US, so most buildings have a concrete foundation and a wood frame, which is then covered in drywall, which is like a mixture of gypsum, cement, and other things. Drywall is not very strong, so it's really all about the wooden frame. From watching other videos on this channel, it seems that this area is not suitable for growing wood. Either there's not enough rainfall for it or the soil doesn't hold the water. And of course we see in this video that there's no easy way to transport vast amounts of lumber in. There's no choice, it seems, but to make structures out of other materials. And I feel there's a misguided sense that the construction is therefore "primitive". I think that instead, it's actually resourceful. So learning about the way people build stable structures in a place with these kinds of limitations might help to address the sort of prejudices people have about these structures and about the people who make and live in them. Because those prejudices are plentiful.

[@nittsstem2685]

Well it appears to be similar to Mexico where vast portions don’t have access to lumber. Adobe is still used and can still be gorgeous and long lasting. Lilies of the Field a 1960’s movie with Sydney Poitier shows him building a chapel in Arizona for Catholic nuns out of adobe as they can’t afford red brick. Adobe is a mixture of water, silt , clay
