Hello my curious! Be all welcome to a new video.
In today's video I have prepared a list for you
with 10 crazy places visited by YouTubers
to record a video for their channel.
From the highway of death, located in Bolivia,
to a country where video recording is prohibited.
Yeah, just as you heard.
Only before we start with the topic I have a little question for you.
In my previous video, the one with the mysterious doors you shouldn't open,
unless you're insane.
I told you about an institute where they store a deadly virus
that could end humanity...
Do you happen to remember the name of that institute?
To make it more fun here I am going to leave you these 4 options on your screen,
choose the option that you think is correct
and write it down here in the comments right now.
At the end of the video I'm going to tell you the name of that institute
and let's see if you got your answer right, okay?
All right, make yourself comfortable and enjoy it, bro.
I'm Curious Ben, and… How curious are you?
KURT CAZ
Kurt Caz is a South African YouTuber who has a channel with over a million subscribers,
on his channel he has a video titled 'Don't Enter This Hood In Peru!',
And you can imagine what he lived through.
Another day in Latin America.
While he was recording a video they left him alone on top of a hill
in a neighborhood of the district of Rímac, in Peru.
Locals in the area warned him to be very careful
and to get out of there as soon as possible.
In one part of the video you can even see a resident of the area
warning him that they can assault him or even hit him in the neck.
Despite that warning, Kurt doesn't seem to mind,
after a few minutes the boy understands
that wandering alone in a dangerous neighborhood was not the best idea
and he decided to go down the hill, and get out of there before something bad happened.
In the video he can be heard gasping for breath as he walks down the hill
on the adrenaline of the moment,
knowing that at any moment he could end up in a bag.
You know what I mean.
Visit a dangerous neighborhood controlled by certain groups anywhere in the world,
not only in Latin America,
it is one of the worst places a YouTuber can go to record a video.
PPPETER
PPPeter, a YouTuber from Slovakia,
went to visit Cameroon to record a video for his channel,
but he had the misfortune that just at the moment of his arrival
started a rebel movement that almost killed him.
- Screw you!
And why do you want to start a rebel movement, Benny?
Before entering the country the police warned Peter that there were rumors of a riot
and that it was not safe for him to enter, but he did not pay attention
and he believed that things would not get worse.
Big mistake, Peter!
Although Cameroon has many beautiful places to visit
in recent years the country has gone through some internal conflicts
that have turned it into a place rarely visited by tourists.
Nobody wants to be in the middle of a riot on their vacation,
except for Peter,
his desire to record a video for his channel was so great
that he didn't think about the consequences of his actions.
For three long days this boy had to spend hidden on a cargo ship
with little water and food, according to his own words,
he could hear the shots and the detonations very close to him,
just 100 meters from where he was hiding there was an armed confrontation
that could end his life.
Desperate for the situation, he called the embassy of his country
and managed to get him out before a tragedy occurred.
An armed confrontation between rebels and the government
it's one of the craziest places a YouTuber has ever gone to shoot a video.
SHIEY
Shiey is an American YouTuber who has several videos on his channel.
visiting prohibited areas of Chernobyl,
they are not videos with simple visits to tourist access areas,
actually Shiey enters this abandoned city like no one else has,
all to record videos for his YouTube channel.
From entering areas of prohibited access to the general public,
to staying to sleep in an abandoned apartment.
Are you insane, son?
As you well know, Chernobyl is one of the most toxic places on our planet,
since the tragedy that occurred in 1986, nothing has been the same as before,
the city was abandoned forever,
radioactivity levels make it very dangerous
and no one wants to live in a place as toxic as this,
and much less go to visit it,
but Shiey thinks otherwise.
This guy has explored some dilapidated buildings,
many of them are prohibited access,
so he has had to evade security patrols to do so.
On one occasion he even slept in an abandoned apartment in Chernobyl
and he recorded everything, something that is strictly prohibited.
Explore a potentially dangerous area of ​​Chernobyl
is one of the craziest sites visited by YouTubers.
JACOB LAUKAITIS
Jacob is a 24-year-old boy who has a channel with almost a million subscribers,
in the last 5 years he has been in more than 60 countries
and has documented each of his visits.
One of the most popular videos on his channel is his visit to the country of Syria,
the situation in that country is not pretty,
surely you have seen or heard many news about this place.
I am not allowed to comment in detail on the things that happen within that nation,
but it's not good.
Jacob thought it would be interesting to visit it
and record what was happening there in the first person,
he interviewed the locals and shot scenes with incredible landscapes of Syria
that you don't usually see on the news.
He also witnessed the bombed buildings
and the destroyed streets in the city.
As he visited these places he was emotionally affected
for all the bad things that have happened here over the last few years.
Visiting a place like this during a conflict must be quite a rough experience,
I'm sure it's one of the most extreme places
that a YouTuber has visited to record a video.
MIKE COREY
Mike is a travel vlogger with over a million subscribers on his YouTube channel,
he has several videos doing really crazy things,
like feeding hyenas in Ethiopia or visiting a remote tribe in Africa.
- Bullsh*t!
Benny, I'm not buying you a hyena, we already talked about this.
But one of his most popular videos is 'The Door To Hell'.
The Darvazá crater or door to hell
it is a huge well of 69 meters in diameter and 30 meters deep
that breathes fire since the 70s.
This place was formed after an accident with a Soviet drilling rig,
since then the door of hell has not stopped burning,
this well is located in the country of Türkmenistan
and only a hundred people visit it each year,
It's in the middle of a desert, so it's not that easy to get here.
Turkmenistan is not exactly a popular tourist destination,
but Mike wanted to see the well with his own eyes,
he went on a visit together with his traveling companion
and being there he decided to roast some marshmallows.
I would have done the same too.
Visit hell's gate and roast marshmallows
it's one of the weirdest things a YouTuber has ever done to post a video.
YES THEORY
'Yes Theory' is quite a popular YouTube channel in English
with nearly 8,000,000 subscribers.
Although they do not upload videos frequently
each one is such an interesting documentary
that reach 3 or 4 million views per video.
As it is a travel channel, you can already imagine that they have visited all kinds of places,
one of their most popular videos is when they visited
to the most dangerous road in the world,
known as 'the road to death', in Bolivia.
The road to death is a route of approximately 80 kilometers in length
in the Yungas region,
his name is not an exaggeration.
Hundreds of people died horribly on this road
falling off the cliff from their vehicles,
the road is unprotected, if you lose control of your vehicle... You'll be dead!
So don't lose control of your damn vehicle.
The presenters of the channel 'Yes Theory' decided
that it would be great to record a video on this road.
The shots are really amazing
and they confirm that the bad reputation of the road is not by chance.
I think I am not exaggerating if I say that the road to death, in Bolivia,
is one of the craziest places where YouTubers go to record videos.
ANTON LYADOV
Anton Lyadov is a YouTuber from Russia
who has a channel with over 4,000,000 subscribers.
His videos are incredible documentaries of almost an hour in length,
in them Anton goes through all kinds of places that not everyone dares to visit.
From the Chinese city where the 'wink wink' outbreak occurred ending in number 19
to some of the most dangerous cities in Latin America,
but one of his most viewed videos is the North Korea documentary.
As you probably know, North Korea is a country that is not friendly to tourists,
almost nothing is known about what happens in there,
if you are a tourist and you carry a recording equipment
usually they check it to see what you have recorded
and if they see something suspicious they can send you to see God, it's very dangerous.
The authorities only allow you to visit certain areas of the country
and there are sites that are strictly prohibited.
Anton managed to get his recording equipment
and in a video lasting almost an hour,
it shows you life inside this country as you have never seen it before.
This man put his life at risk for a video.
North Korea, one of the craziest destinations a YouTuber has ever visited.
LUISITO COMUNICA
'Luisito Comunica' doesn't even need an introduction,
is one of the most popular Spanish-speaking channels,
at the time of making this video he has about 40,000,000 subscribers.
What a disturbing fact!
He has visited dozens of places as a content creator,
from tribes in Africa, through Chernobyl, to North Korea recently.
There is no corner of the world that Luisito has not been to.
One of his craziest visits occurred at the beginning of 2019
when he stayed to sleep in the pantheon of Mexico City
which is the largest pantheon in Latin America.
Perhaps this is not the most surprising place Luisito has been,
but it is one of the scariest.
The pantheons are full of all kinds of dark stories,
spooky noises, ghosts, apparitions and contact with beings from beyond.
The pantheon of Mexico City is not far from all that,
if you want to know it, I recommend you make a visit with a tour guide,
don't venture out alone.
For his video, Luisito was accompanied by a team that knows paranormal things
and two security people in case a ghost appeared to them.
Sleeping in a pantheon should not be a pleasant experience,
so I'm not exaggerating if I say that this is one of the craziest places
that a YouTuber has visited to create a video.
VICE
Vice is a Canadian company that produces digital content,
they have a YouTube channel with 16,000,000 subscribers.
That is too much!
The editor and producer of the 'Vice' channel, Rocco Castoro and Jackson Fager,
decided to go record a video on the deadliest island in the world,
the Snake Island, located in Brazil.
This island is located 90 miles off the coast of Sao Paulo,
its real name is 'Ilha da Queimada Grande',
but I like the sound of 'Snake Island' better.
Despite being a very beautiful island, no one dares to visit it,
it is estimated that at least five snakes live for every square meter
and some of them are very poisonous, such as the golden spearhead snake
that with its powerful poison can kill a person in less than an hour,
its bite is so lethal that it can even melt human flesh.
That sounds painful!
To avoid any tragedy, the Brazilian navy prohibits civilians from approaching the island,
but to our friends from 'Vice'
they thought it would be a great idea to record a video for their channel on this site.
I think that's crazy.
JORDAN SIMONS
Jordan Simons is a YouTuber with almost 250 thousand subscribers,
on his channel 'The Life Of Jord',
he uploads videos knowing different places on our planet.
One of his most popular videos is the one of his visit to the Danakil Depression
or better known as 'Hell on Earth'.
Yeah, that place exists.
This is one of the hottest spots on our planet and is located in Ethiopia,
its climate is extreme throughout the year
reaching maximum temperatures of 60 degrees and without any vegetation.
Hell on Earth.
If you are not protected and with enough liquids you can pass out due to sunstroke,
it is a unique place in the world, but not precisely because it is beautiful,
quite the opposite.
Here lives a people known as 'The Afar Tribe',
they are the only people who can withstand the climate of this area,
it is said that these people have lived here for more than 2000 years
and that is why they have already adapted to these temperatures of hell.
Hell on earth is one of the most extreme places a YouTuber has shown us.
And that's all for today!
This video was super good, right?
Well, if you liked it as much as I did, you should give a thumbs up right now
because that helps me a lot to know if you really enjoyed it.
If you want to see another video about places on our planet, you already know what to do.
The answer to the question at the beginning of the video is option 'D', VECTOR Institute.
Inside the VECTOR Institute, located in Siberia,
a vault with biological material is found
which can be dangerous to the human race if released,
so nobody should open the access door
unless you want to die.
If you want to watch a video about doors that should not be opened under any circumstances
Up here I am going to leave you a link so that you can go directly to see it right now.
And as I always tell you at the end,
before you go don't forget to share this video with all your friends
so that the family of curious people continues to grow.
And follow me on social networks so you can learn new curiosities every day.
Now take a look at another of my 'tops' by clicking on one of those pretty little windows
you see on your screen right now.
And let the show go on!
See you in the next one, bye.
