World's Hardest Border Crossing Gone Wrong...

The Taftan border between Pakistan and Iran is one of the hardest border crossings in the world. In this video, we take you on a journey through Balochistan and show you the poorest part of Pakistan as we tried to cross this crazy border.

HELLO THERE:
We are Joe and Liisu, relatively new to KZbin but really excited to be a part of this community. We live small and sustainably in my home on wheels (a lovely van called Freyja) and from time to time out of our backpacks (we have not named the backpacks yet). On this channel, we ask you to join us on our travel adventures off the beaten track where we show you the beauty of untouched nature and wander into places most tourists don't dare to go.

Don't understand the local government, but it's nice to see that the locals are friendly! This proves that there is love everywhere in the world, even in countries we don't know! You guys are really brave, looking forward to the next episode, thanks for sharing! 👍🥰🙏🙌

[@WildVikingTravels]

Thank you Gianni! Yes, that is what we have encountered as well. Good people everywhere!

[@alvinjohnson2253]

​@@WildVikingTravelsHey Guys thanks for visiting Pakistan ❤ You guys made some excellent Videos. Pakistan suffers from foreign espionage agencies that conduct terrorist activities to damage country's economy and in particular foreign investment that comes from those wages, the local police do not want to have kidnapped for ransom tourists etc thus the escorts. Furthermore being a poor country they cannot offer you to stay in some guarded hotels with police presence so ironically the most safest place are police station as no criminal or terrorist can easily infiltrate there. Again thank you for your patience 😊

[@alvinjohnson2253]

​​​@@WildVikingTravelsAlso thank you for bearing with patience Liisu. If I may share with you, in the Eastern Context, it may seem counterintuitive to you, but there are Many dimensions working here, when the Police Escorts asked you to sit in the back, it's *NOT* because he thinks you are a lesser gender, It's because According to his Culture/Religion/The Way of Life, he cannot freely mix with females besides his Own, Wife, Daughter, Sisters, Mother, Aunties and grandmothers, grandaughters.. So As an escort for security he has to be in the front seat but Cannot compromise his religion because he is Answerable to The ALMIGHTY CREATOR. Nothing to do with you personally. Try NOT to look at it from a Feminist Western nations perspective but As in How people are happily & harmonious living with their traditions in the east.. #NoRightOrWrong Remember that _Different_ is NOT bad, even if it may seem strange or Jarring to us at first, because there is Always *wisdom* and *reasons* behind it..😊 Again thank you for your continued patience and understanding 💓🙏🏽🙏🏼🙏🏾🙏🏻

We also felt very safe. Even too safe with somebody always guarding us 24/7😅 but I guess there is a point where more security equals a worse experience with loss of freedom.

Oh my, your adventures are getting more crazy by the day 🙈 Türkiye seems such a long way away now, such calming videos from there. Would it have been more difficult to go through the Afghanistan border and enter Pakistan from a different area? I haven't seen these borders being crossed before, just travellers visiting the countries separately. I take my hat off to you, you appear to cope with more than I would be able to ❤️ Wishing you all the luck in the world for the rest of your journey and hope things get easier 🤞

[@WildVikingTravels]

Thank you! Yeah, the adventure is getting more crazy by the day! Türkiye was like years ago now it seems 😅. But we did not think about Afghanistan. We are not ready for it yet 🫣. Internet and other videos said this border crossing was not going to be that Long so it seemed like an adventure not one where we would have to escape 😅. Always a pleasure having you on the channel! ❤️

[@champdude2011]

Great videos. Watching it from 🇺🇸. At 15:55, policeman seems to be just an old traditional guy. In their local and religious customs, men don't sit right next to or make any physical contact with woman who is not related.. I'm sure understand that by now. A lot of young guys don't really care as you can see young policemen were actually enjoying ride with you😄

[@WildVikingTravels]

Considering that we have no seats or seatbelts in the back, even if it was for his religion, he should not have recommended to put Liisu's life in danger for his religion. But yeah, we realised that by now that he did not want Liisu in the front as much as Liisu did not want to sit next to him after requesting to make her drive without a seatbelt on these roads.

[@user-rs9sg3qq1p]

Balochistan has very beautiful landscape. It looks heavenly in winter ❄️. It's so sad that Pakistan has kept the province poor despite having every mineral resource that one can imagine. The area you drove through has copper and gold mines. No tourism because government can't ensure security. Super sad.

I think the real reason that policeman asked her to sit at the back seat was not because he thought less of her but being more religiously observant he did want to be rubbing against an unrelated woman. He could have gone at the back you may say, but then how would it be a security escort then?

[@WildVikingTravels]

I think it was a difficult situation for him doing this job then considering that there is no seats or seatbelts in the back and asking Liisu to endanger her life for the Policeman's religion is not acceptable.

Pakistan is a loving country ,Your fears were natural but the ride and adventure was beautiful yes in that part of Pakistan from Iranian border and Pakistan border there is a long buffer zone which is quite dangerous and that's why everyone escorting u for your safety and did offer u whatever they have so I guess it was a great journey overall and before coming at least do some some homework for a guide.

[@WildVikingTravels]

The Balochistan part, yes escort was justifies and was an adventure but everybody's experience was different traveling through there. Some people had to take taxis in situations like we were who were traveling without a car because they were simply left in the middle of nowhere with no way forward. Some people had a stress-free journey. And I guess not all travel-blogs feature all of the possible stories but thank you for your opinion.

[@WildVikingTravels]

Eks naisena oli raske ka tulla Iraanist ja kogeda sama asja Pakistanis. See kultuur ei ole meie jaoks tehtud, aga päris üle sõita ka ei saa lasta. Naiste ja meeste tunnetus maailmast ja opressioonist on täiesti erinev, sest mehed ei koge omal nahal kunagi sama ja raskem on aru saada probleemidest.

[@Kashar47]

Very interesting storytelling but scary experience for you. Although I don't know exactly why they accompanied you even after the border of Baluchistan, but I think it was due to some sort of misunderstanding because lack of clear communication was a factor along with your lack of understanding of what they want. Since I am basically from Pakistan so I think I understand their intentions. You didn't know that paying small amounts of money to any official is customary to get your job done. They were probably expecting some cash from rare foreign visitors and that is why they didn't stop accompanying you even at Baluchistan border. You did the right thing by just driving away. If you knew their intentions, you could hand them few hundred rupees at Baluchistan border, say " thanks for your help" and drive away. However I feel bad for all that episode with you and hope rest of your journey was good enough

[@WildVikingTravels]

Thank you! We try to stay away from knowingly Breaking the law, especially bribing police officers. It might be possible that this was expected but it would be a bad habit to install in the area that every foreign tourist has to bribe the Police in order to see the country. Now fortunately it is just a good story to tell!

[@omg_SallyKelly]

Way over dramatized!!! I did the same trip in my van from Europe last year. The police escort is simply there to protect foreigners in the tribal areas of Balochistan. Yes there is real danger there, not necessarily towards foreigners, but from a Taliban faction towards Pakistanis themselves. Did you know that on January 30th over 100 police were killed in an attack in Peshawar not far from the Afghan border? Stay safe, but don't break the laws and customs of places you visit. Did you know that older man refusing to sit with your gf is actually a sign of respect as he did not want to be near or be in touch with her in any way. They would want their adult females to also be sitting away from you or another strange man. It is a form of respect for their girls and women. Not everything is an issue of inequality as you make it out to be. Please learn!

[@WildVikingTravels]

Exactly! The Police is there to protect us in Balochistan but sadly by the time we escaped them, we were hundreds of kilometers out of Balochistan and nowhere near Afghanistan. Everybody has a different experience on this route and this is how we felt. Not necessarily applicable to everybody. If that is the case with the old man, I think it was very impolite of him to want to endanger Liisu's life like this out of respect since we have no seats or seatbelts in the back. 🤷

The only reason he asked to sit behind because of religious reasons. According to Islam one is not permitted to sit with woman other than his family. so its not disrespect but rather more respect.

[@WildVikingTravels]

I might not understand his full reasoning but asking somebody to sit behind the van without seatbelts nor seats, setting the girl's life in danger out of religion and respect is not a great thing. There are no more seats in this van than the 3 in the front. Maybe, if this is a problem for him, he should talk to his supervisor to not put him in situations that go against his beliefs.

Hey! We are safe and well, thank you! Yeah, Balochistan laws we knew - no tourists without NOC and Police escort. But in the end we were so frustrated with not even having a second to ourselves for 7 days straight, we decided this 20km was worth the risk of kidnapping or other dangers. Sometimes the risk is worth taking but it of course depends on who is taking it. We accepted the danger.

​@@WildVikingTravelsyou accepted the danger?! Is not only about you but about pakistani governament as well. You wanted to accepted the danger. Pakistani government didnt wanted. You should have respect that, because last word since you are guests is from the pakistani government, is not yours.

These police escorts are for tourists safety as pakistan does not want any more bad name in the media so pls understand ❤ and yes sometimes there are problems but nothing is perfect and lastly hopefully u enjoyed my country 🇵🇰 And also that guy who requested ur wife or partner to sit at the back actually he meant no disrespect, the thing is in islam touching the non related people of opposite gender is forbidden and with ur wife or partner sitting so close to him sometimes accidentally touch so in order to prevent that he ask for her to sit at the back he meant no disrespect and yes the language barrier is problem but can u blame the people for not speaking English? I know pakistans official language is English but urdu is more common so i would advice u to learn some words or a lil bit of urdu before travelling anywhere in pakistan because english is mainly in cities but these villages very few English speakers.

And after looking at some replies u gave to the comments I saw u said u have no seat belts at the back of the truck so in that case the old man should just adjust and I don't think he knew that u guys didn't had seatbelts in the back if he knew then I think he would not ask her to sit at the back.

[@mirjahanzaib401]

Being a girl you are no less than a Man !! That guy actually is a Muslim and in his perception he can’t not sit and even have a little bit of physical touch with a any women apart from his family. So you have to respect that, you do not have to take anything personally !! Some people don’t mind sitting with you some do, so you have to respect it without criticism!!

[@WildVikingTravels]

There is no seats or seatbelts in the back of our car, so the man directly wanted to set Liisu's life in danger. It is impolite to set somebody in danger out of respect and religion. If he did not want to sit with us, he should have discussed with his superiors as we only have 3 seats in the car.

It was a silly thing to leave police escort. They were there for your safety. They were using their own petrol, manpower and time for your safety. That area is full of gangs who loot non locals. Anyway you were lucky to reach motorway safely.

[@WildVikingTravels]

By that point, we were ready for the risk. As we later found out, the area was not dangerous anymore, the police just did not like the gravel road 🫠

[@baberbeyg001]

I know its suffocating to be escorted by police. But you could have been kidnapped or God firbid killed. I am so happy that you are safe❤️. Enjoy rest of Pakistan, its very safe otherwise, you will love Islamabad, will certainly recommend Northern Areas, not to be missed.

[@ahad1613]

Well u must not see things from the westeren perspective the reason that guy asked women to go sit in the back is not because he is a sexiest but because it is haram(not permissible) in our religion to have a physical contact with non mehrams(women except for wife,daughter,sister and mother) even accidentally Hope you will respect our religion and values

[@thepakistaniwayneptunestud734]

ZOO ANIMALS AND CELEBS... HAHA AND MANY PEOPLE WANT TO BECOME CELEBS. THEY DO ANYTHING TO BECOME CELEBS. AND YOU FELT IT FIRST HAND HOW IT FEELS LIKE TO BE A CELEBRITY HAHA. WELCOME

[@sobraniezolotova528]

You do not understand, there was no imprisonment or detention the Police Escort is Special Resource provided by poor Pakistani taxpayers to ensure your safety and deter any brigands from looting your valuable personal effects. Also, the police officer that requested for you to sit in the back was not stating that you are inferior, rather he was respecting you as a woman and did not want to make you feel uncomfortable sitting alongside a strange man. You go to foreign countries and criticise the people for not speaking in the language of the Western Colonial Bullies. Can you blame them after those self-same Colonial Masters. Have plundered, murdered and raped in the name of Democracy. How would you feel if Ukraine invaded Estonia and forced you to stop speaking Estonian.

[@WildVikingTravels]

If you read up on history you would know exactly how Estonians would feel to be occupied and invaded. And I am not sure if you know this, but Pakistan as officialy declared English as one of their official languages.

[@king42040]

These guys dont know what Baluchistan really is , i would personally never go there 😂

[@WildVikingTravels]

We truly have no idea, how Balochistan is because we did not have a second in Balochistan without being under Police surveillance.

[@thepakistaniwayneptunestud734]
