Maybe go back and help your fellow countrymen? Bet that thought doesn't cross your mind too often?

@@roadieman209 may you go over there to help? or, is it, that leaving you're cozy situation would be too hard?

@@michaelalexanderrunggaldie8870 How could he even help effectively bro you guys tripping

Here in USA, young guys don't even know how to change a flat they call rheir moms to y use their triple a card they have a blank look in their face, and these people are amazing and tenacious!😮

We in central Europe after 50 years of comunism , know this tricks . Belive me , Human as a God's creature will fix each thing defence of situation . Do you know ? In concentration camps kids were born , peoples hated , loved .They have arranged an alternative world .They trayed live as normal society in strange situation .Nothing .ore We , the people , will fix it .😅😅

Yep, but not sure if privileged are good. even life are hard looks like african people enjoy it.

It's really a reminder of who is capable of what. Sierra Leone WAS a paradise

@@takoyaki-gq1qj Which part did you see these people enjoying life? All they do is complain about EVERYTHING

Same

yes thts the main aim of this selective documentary, so that when you weighed down by high taxes and cost of living, they show you this😉

You will forget about this and start complaining again!

Amen

@@coochiecrook7120 have to admit You're so damn right

How about asking ur politicians to stop the exploitation of Africa and it's people

I watch these shows and know how soft my life is

aki Kenya ni kuzuri bro

Its just that you are on the better side of Kenya bro,travel and you will know that African problems are all the same

@@giftmunkhondya3016 i am a transit driver but i don't have to worry about rain during the rainy season because the highways and major roads are in good state i know there are roads that are not accessible but they are not major roads but generally i can't complain about the road network cause there was a time like in early 2000s the roads were bad compared to now

Exactly

We are better off most African countries are really suffering we should thank God

Your takeaway shouldn't just to be grateful with what you have. The takeaway is that you, just like these men, are capable of enduring much more. We are a men. We are built for stress and hard work.

nah blacks people in the US would still blame whites for the Blacks own mistakes in their own countries.

@@juanm1391 u are an ignorant human being

Either they were drunk or just high on life!

So true

@@FantaLaStrada no the situation is so hopeless it’s better to laugh

some self made "snow chains" for the tires will be the best invest of his life🤣

fun part is that even life are hard, looks like people are happy.

This is exactly what I think

They’re common especially in this line of work in Sierra Leone and other parts of Africa. As you can see, you will end up be a semi-mechanic to some degree though cause any problems you have to fix where you can’t find fitters in remote locations.

Especially the white truck, just look at the shape of it and listen to what noises it's making yet it still drives perfectly fine, unbelievable

They had to build cars to break down or else there would be no automatic industry.

Part of it is they aren't getting up to speed, low heat generation on bearing and engine. Up at normal cruising speeds on roads, 100kmph, they'd likely fall apart or shudder like crazy

They didnt do jackshit, it's just old primitive tec from the west they keep alive WAY beyond the point anyone outside of Africa would, but when manpower is cheap you can have 10 guys do bush mechanics on a truck for 3 times its intended lifetime.

I was also very confused by the translations haha. One guy spoke very clearly and it was still translated to a synonymous sentence with almost completely different words

Yes. They translated a guy saying "When you see these black stones diamonds are close by" into "When you see these black stones the diamonds are not far away" His own words made it perfectly clear and "translating" them made no sense🤷‍♂️

No butter no mayonnaise to no butter no cheese

Africa's a very rich nation yet they live in poverty because of mismanaging

@@plumeria1985 I think it's because these are french documentaries, then the french script is translated to english and it doesn't always line up with the original after 2 translations

Yeah the main problems is education and society :-/

My father was from Sierra Leone. Why would people risk their lives crossing a colonial bridge and not building their own infrastructure? What is strong about not helping our own people?

Bull s... Kids you talk about are living in civilized country so they don't have to deal with that bs, being poor, having shitty hard life is not something you should celebrate and be proud of, people you see in those documentaries would act like kids you talk about if they were in theirs place. It's matter of perspective. Also if you ever been to any 3rd or 4th world country you would know that they don't even try to rebuild or make stuff better they completely given up on trying to do anything sensible. That's why they will always remain poor, it's completely different mindset to Europeans or northern Americans. Company i worked for tried to do business in Africa, it was literally impossible outside of RPA, no one wanted to do actual work, we signed up over 50 people to build our local HQ, guess how many shown up next day... 3 out of 50 and we were offering very good payment they simply thought we will give them money even if they don't do anything... Eventually company given up on Africa and double downed on Asia and Europe.

I would love to donate a whole pile of nice clothes in our house that would help these boys. Its such poverty that fuels these civil wars across the Continent.

No country can develop itself without first, in relative terms. Being able to establish, through the rule of law. Peace and stability! In that respect. It isn't poverty that creates civil wars. It is corruption and criminality that creates the civil wars! Which in turn create poverty! Given the resulting strife, uncertainty and instability!! Hardly the right mix of circumstances for a country to develop itself!! Therefore, it is necessary to win that battle first!!

Theyare all doing these everyday in barefoot. Imagine thay.

Our cOmPlAinInG AbOuT sTuPiD sHiT is one of the reasons were not stuck in this fucked up situation. Most Africans are way too complicant with incompetent and corrupt political leadership, they simply believe the BS they are being told and get back to work, youll have armed rebell troops here and there but a) they usually are small minorities and b) they also often are in it for the money. Your attitude is not only toxic it also enforces the supression of Millions of people in Africa...

They also can get easily bitten by venemous snakes.

Every country struggled and it was by complaining about the stupid sh*t and refusing at times to do it those things, that it eventually improved.

I am from Botswana and my thought was like we dont have struggles like these in Southern Africa. All our countries are interconnected with tarred roads. Here in Botswana and neigboring countries our major boarder gates have very good infrastructure

If only you knew - they are sitting on gold and diamond - but is really not benefiting them at all

Yes, although the O in OAF stands for Austria

@@CarlosRodriguez-hb3vq Good point.

Square chocolate Muslims believe in Virgin Mary as a prophet.

Dern right...

Every country has faced the same challenges to make life better and it takes work, some people don't want to work. that is the reason my father left Sierra Leone.

@@endangerdenglish Exactly.

@@endangerdenglish people don’t want to work there? I guess the guys in this video are the exception

It's heartbreaking💔😭 AFS am from Jamaica🌴🌴🌴

@@chrisbotts8334 seems like too many exceptions for that to be true

The reason Sierra Leone is what it is today is because of European invaders, not solely their government.

Solving the last problem they caused with a new problem that will require a new fix

@@AlienLivesMatter Not a new problem, the same problem, they just shifted it farther up the coast. The best solution and cheapest would have been to move the road 100 meters inland as the coastline in question is mostly uninhabited.

@@MasterCedar No. Removing all locals really solves the problems. What are those people doing there? We all are just overpopulation, right?

й

The road is gone

This is what the Tories will have us doing shortly

We in England lived like this hundreds of years ago but we learned to build a civilised infrastructure.

@yonhao Sleepy Why should the UN fund the building of roads? Don’t you think the people that live there should build the roads.

@yonhao Sleepy Didn’t we do this numerous times. Band Aid x2 Live Aid Live 8 Feed the World I could go on. Until you stamp out corruption and introduce a democratic educated society this will never change

@@theworldsbonkers debeers should fund the roads since they’ve gotten filthy rich off the diamonds. Most places are also devastated in the years following a civil war. The southern US surely was. Some towns never recovered.

Look at the US. Or China. This is what you want to catch up to? Only more inequality, corruption and repression. Sure, the roads are better ..

@@Quarantineism you would rather we don't catch up? There's always a possibility of shedding corruption both internally and external. There's always room for progress. Hope is not a bad thing. China etc were not this developed a few decades ago, we're they?

@@MB10104 You don't even know what you want. 'Progress' ist not a magic spell that makes all your problems go away. China developed itself mostly because of rampant industrialization, ruthlessly exploiting the masses of poor migrant workers, all under a political force that suppresses free speech, free Internet, copyrights etc. etc. Yes, yes, do your progress, but be prepared to pay a price.

@@Quarantineism well by your own theory, all developed countries must have exploited some unlucky people. We're told America was built by the sweat and blood of their African slaves, right? So from your logic the only way to develop is through exploitation?

@@MB10104 It might be not the only way, of course. But, it is the way it was certainly done in the last couple of centuries. Either through exploitation of people or natural resources or both.

Survival is one hell of a motivator.

They need a government that actually gives a shit, no excuse to not have anything resembling a maintained road.. war is no excuse, look at Rwanda for comparison

Strange that the colonials build bridges and roads, but are called the bad guys.

Your are spoiling the party😉

​@@Deontjieit depends what country colonized it, like Indonesia has been colonized by Netherlands for 300 Years and nothing much happens

@@farelnaru8903 We were not colonized by the Dutch. Their VOC company just put up shop here. But from that sprung roads and farms. Then the British colonized us, And then it was more roads and railroads and fish and chips shops.

All I heard throughout this entire video was complaining.

Sierra Leone is not a town it’s the whole country

Cara eu fico vendo isso e por mais que seja dificil no Brasil,moramos no céu se comparado a esses lugares,temos que dar valor no nosso trabalho e agradecer muito a Deus por tudo.

@@lucasv.7563 Exatamente isso

They only ever look to short term not long term . !! They ruin everyone else's chance of making money from tourism for a quick book that will be gone in a year or two

Relax bro,see who is doing the documentary, every country has it good and bad side.the west only shows the negative part of africa

Brillant for you , poor people 🚛🚚

Amém.

Being a civil engineer have been wondering about that too. Where I am, no one dares to use sand from saline water bodies be it river or ocean for fear of chlorides and sulpates

Did you miss the part where the new construction was shown with 'framing' of random branches? I don't think you need to be concerned about proper building.

you're asking way too much from a government that only cares about money before being toppled by another that also have the same greed

That’s the issue, people want the country to improve but when someone trys to help, they “disappear “. Left with corrupted government who just want money.

this video is a good illustration of the saying "work smarter, not harder". They could all work together to build a f**** road, as we do everywhere else on Earth,, and their job of driving that truck back and forth would become relatively easy.

@@johnsmith-ro2tw If they don't drive this truck they will starve. Building a road in jungle would take many many months. Who will keep them and their families alive during those months? Also building a road that would last both dry and wet season and more than 1 year costs (in south Africa but we can say it is similar) about 200 000 dollars... those are the money for 1 km.

@@marekpumex So ? you're saying don't do anything and keep driving on 20 cm of sticky mud. Did Europe and Asia build all their roads overnight at no cost ? Africans have to want to work if they want better infrastructure.

@@johnsmith-ro2tw They are in kinda of a trap. Only somebody who will pay for building a road will change anything. There are many people trying to improve the quality of road but until You power enough (in this case it means power enough to pay for people and materials) then You will not change anything, and just a communities trying to do this is not enough. You need the power of whole country almost.

@@marekpumex How did people do in other countries ? If people in other countries waited for the government to pour millions of dollars and do the job for them, in Europe we would still be driving horse carriages on mud roads. In Europe, people put cobblestones together to make roads. You don't need the government to hold your hand to do that. You need a few guys working together to shape the stones, to carry them, and to align the stones on the ground. In the early days of America, people hand built villages in remote areas, with wood, by themselves (what you see in cowboys movies). The American gov didn't help. Unlike Europeans/Asians, it seems Africans are unable to work together to build something that benefits everyone in the community.
