- World's Most Dangerous Roads: Deadliest Journeys in Ivory Coast (2020)
Deadliest Roads - All Episodes: • Deadliest Roads | All ...
Titles to glory, with medals made of chocolate… “The infrastructure is in a desperate state,” complains one cocoa bean trucker who zigzags between the potholes. “When the prime minister came to the region they filled in the holes, but they never repaired the road!”
Cocoa producers are in despair. “Getting the product out of the forest is a major problem. You leave here in the morning, but you don’t know if you’ll get there by night.” Yakou is one of the last drivers willing to supply the most remote villages. There’s only 45 kilometres to travel and it takes him between 8 and 10 hours to get there! The journey is so demanding that his son, who helps him during the vacations, doesn’t want to inherit the family’s one item of wealth: the truck.
But nothing in the world would make him abandon his father. “My father’s brave, he’s a fighter!” To confront the highways, which are that in name only, Ivory Coast mechanical geniuses construct a replica of a 1970s minibus, part by part. The Badjan! Zoum owns one, but like the majority of drivers, he does not have the means to maintain it… “You see us cutting and welding the parts because we don’t have the means to buy new ones.”
Today, cocoa no longer brings in sufficient revenues so some people are tearing up the trees to search for gold! The challenge to the people of the Ivory Coast is huge, but their determination is even greater…

Anyone who’s seen the mad bikers of Burundi will appreciate the crazy of these street skaters (but without any skateboards or anything except the soles of their sneakers). The truck is moving. Fast. Kinda insane. These guys. Adrenaline rushes through crazy stunts is obviously as addictive as to substances. I would argue also healthier but watching these kids and the danger they put themselves through? Wow. And respect to them. Anyway, you’ll also what’s made the Ivory Coast the richest country in West Africa: cocoa. And the effect it has on the region. Enjoy! And don’t try the hanging-off- truck shoe sliding thing at home!
Happy birthday to me 🎂🎉 $RN4LFATT
I hope the Ivorian police arrest those acrobats. And to check if the passengers have their seat belts on.
Thank you for yet another great fascinating and interesting video masterpiece guys!🙏
We love your documentaries and the work that you do, remember that.💚
And please try to keep safe on your adventures.👉 Bless you
Lets see a doc on the congo cobalt mining
Dumb comment. This is a documentary about exploiting humans.
The guy that repairs the road, even with his disability, is a real hero
It's so sad though that one disabled man is doing more for the people and economy of the Ivory Coast than their entire government and earns a mere 2-3 euros a day. Their government as well as any other govt and company involved is an absolute joke, what a shame.
May God open doors for him
@@RKBro-jr1ts amen brother
He is amazing!!! All this people are huge human beings so admirable and sad
An example to us all perhaps. A model for the renovation of all of their roads too. Taxes go through too many hands to be of much use. Keep it local. 👍
The guy that repair the road ....he really touch my heart....he is great.. God bless him...
One of the biggest things I've learned from these documentaries is that the people from 3rd world countries or just those that grew up with so little are more resilient, and resourceful. That guy repairing the roads has all my respect.
They is no such thing as 3rd world. Those in the West suffer heavy from depression and anxiety & take drugs like hell just to function. They all live on borrowed money like borrowed time. Nobody is better than any on earth. Don't you suffer from depression yourself?. How much do you owe the rich banks?. You might not own anything right now. Do you know that land is free in Africa meaning no huge borrowings. Yes free land given to people by Chiefs. West sells everything which gives a sense of wealth yet in reality many live on borrowed time money & own nothing which creates mental disabilities. A disabled person isn't worth anything. So you better stop putting your head first but third then you might abolish the 3rd business in your medulla.
Exactly
You don't have any other option, it's a must to be super resilient
Yes they are. And one could say happier. That doesn't mean people should be destitute or that it's okay that some people in the world are destitute. No. Absolutely not. But honestly, if I had to choose: spend time with a stupid rich family or a poor family, I'd choose the poor family. They are closer to life and what it means to be a human.
government obligation to repair roads, dali rural housing left economy country selling cocoa
I have been watching the Free Documentary of the Deadliest Roads, and this one touched me like no other one. An elderly person helping an entire village and the physically challenged person repairing the road so that no one else has to go through what has suffered, what a man! A dad who wants his son to follow his footsteps to continue helping people and on the other hand wants his son to follow his dreams. A son helping his dad who can't bear watching him work so hard at such age but dreams to making something big. This episode is one of the best I have watched. Thank you!
Right, and yet our kids born in the Western world are so spoilt and entitled, not to talk of how ungrateful they are. God bless our homeland Africa, and may we have leaders who would make it better for us all.
😊
The fact that we get free documentaries on UA-cam by Free Documentary is truly a gift. 👍👍👍
The man at the end brought tears to my eyes. May God continue to watch over him & grant him the strength to continue to repair the roads to keep everyone safe throughout their journey 🙏🏾 ❤️ .
Give him money
@@johnconley3473 I would give
So man where is your god , nowhere to be seen. Just a fantasy
@@MikeTyson-pl1qm me too, please let find him in some way!
And we have so many complaints about our life?
No words are enough to describe these people's courage and bravery. My deepest respect for these hard working people of Ivory Coast❤
And this should be an award winning film.
THANK YOU.
I swear these videos are good for my soul.
They humble me and help me to refocus on my life instead of wasting time with social media and stuff. With time I fall back to my bad habits but these videos help me to regain motivation.
Afriacans are so like us Filipinos, we can thrive even in most undesirable situations. God bless Africans
Tanken you! From Ethiopia with love.
We are the real deal.
I would have love to be able to give a break to the guy repairing the road on one leg. He touched me in many ways and also made me realize, again, the unfair world we live in.
You can give him money
@@johnconley3473 How ?
@Hassan Khan The guy repairing the road is not begging but working hard to keep the road in as good a shape as possible for the people transporting goods or commuting on road. He is earning a living in as much a respectful way as possible. He is not sitting idle nor crying over his lost leg nor asking for help in any way. Its rather the people who have most of the money who are committing theft.
The guy who repairs the road he's a absolute legend
These always make me feel so much better about my life.
Yes 100%. And the fact that MOST of the world lives similar to this.. and people cry about 30m community to work on good roads with a decent car (even if it's it's old beater) to a job where they make more in a week than these guys make in months... life is not that bad. We are truly blessed
@@swampypolitics9574 Most? its pretty much only Africa which has has it this bad!
@@JP-oe4ry not really. Of you've seen alot of these episodes fr around the world everywhere accept the USA. Canada European nations and a few others the rest of the world isn't nearly as developed with infrastructure. Sure Africa has some of the worst if not the worst... but world wide if you were to actually calculate it. Most of the world's population is this or similar or slightly better.. South America Asia. Hell most of China is poverty with shacks even though it's the 2nd or 3rd largest economy... while they are doing belt and road in Africa.
Building infrastructure and in the process making those countries debted to China for years.
But infrastructure of first world developed nations really only exists in major cities and tourist spots in most of the world.. the poorest people in the USA and western nations similar are far richer and have far more easier access and lives than the avg person in the rest of the world. If you go by percentages.
I've been watching these for years and they've been to every continent and country in the world. Most of the world's populated areas are not developed. No where in developed nations does it take days to make a 100mile trip where the chance of death and injury and destroyed vehicles is higher than not. Remember these are MOST dangerous...and the surrounding areas are just slightly less bad but all would be considered not developed at all by 1st world standards. We get traffic jams while truckers in these nations are stuck for days or weeks in nowhere because their main road resembles an off road trail at a 4x4 park where people have 40" boggers and still get stuck.
We have jams and road crews arrive fairly fast.. they don't have any aside from locals because the gov doesn't fund it outside major cities. Andajor shopping routes can be blocked for days or weeks and regularly. Because of corruption mostly. That's why the gap can't grow they can't transport good efficiently like we can. Without good road infrastructure your economy cannot grow.
Facts
@J P It's not "most", but it is however quite a few countries. If you watch other episodes of deadliest roads ect. You would see they are just like this episode, if not worse. For example Bangladesh, India, Columbia, the Amazon in Brazil, Cuba, Bolivia, Kazakhstan, Siberia, Pakistan, Paraguay, Afghanistan, Nepal, and the Congo just to name a few.
This is the best documentary I've ever watched. Hats off to all that hard working people. I will not complain about simple nuisances anymore.
At the tap of button we learn a lot from you. Thank you Free Documentary. 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
Atleast we hve roads 🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪💪💪
Their transport system is very pathetic.passagers hanging. michuki Rip.🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪🇰🇪
Na mbona tuna kiherehere ivo ati lazima tuweke flag kwa comment watu wajue tumetoka wapi, kwani hawa wengine hawana flags? Wengine wako nchi ziko developed kutuliko na hawasemi, ama ni juu hatujazoea internet
The repairman was great. But what touched my heart the most was the father blessing his son, at the end of the reel.
The old driver so kind even in the hard situation he was calm and giving instruction to his son
Supposed to be sleeping as I got work in two hours but I got so into this documentary. The elder and his son at the end 😢❤️ and the guy who was repairing the roads despite his disability. You can see they all work sooooo hard. May good things come to those also finding it hard in life. 🙏🏾🙏🏾♥️
Happy Sunday to all
Happy Sunday!
Indeed it is a happy Sunday here in South Africa.Peace.
Same to you😊
Happy Sunday to you as well from beautiful Oklahoma!
Same to you 😀
My eyes filled with tears to see the man who repair the road. Real hero
This is one of the most inspiring episodes I've watched.
The disabled gentleman should be given the country's highest civilian honour. I hope their government is noticing this through this documentary. Hats off to the documentary makers and this channel for bringing us these amazing stories.
What a blessed father to have a son who is empathetic of his struggles..
Ai
Even though I am not rich, watching this makes me thank God/Buddha everyday for where I am at. No comparison to the hardship these men n women n children adored.. daily.! Wish I can help the gentleman fixing the road every day due to his own accident. Wish I can help these children. Such a beautiful country. Another awesome documentary!!
Buddha is not God.
@@waqarsaleem8611 🗿🗿🫡🫡
This is typically the life in our african villages and we dont complain since we have no bills to pay..food is organic from our farms,no electricity bills, use solar panels and life goes on.
Hats of to the guy who repair the roads
The disable man who is repairing the road is principally noble. ♥
My heart melts when I see those poor kids working hard and when I see the helplessness in the eyes of the father who was teaching his son how to pick good cocoa. Dao and his father are also very hard working. Africa as a whole continent doesn't stop surprising me when I see even the poorest people think of other fellow people and his own family and parents. Hats off to all those hard working people out there! I LOVE YOU AND YOUR SPIRIT of never stopping, never giving up and never stop fighting.
And yes the driver who was hauling the cocoa beans and playing videogames on the cellphone while others were trying hard to unstuck his truck- duck you moffo
Abu story was such a tear jerker tbh!! May God see him through & bless the work of his hands so he can be rejuvenated & compensated for his efforts.
This people are amazing. They still have the power to smile in front of all the dangerous situation they face every day every night. Extraordinary
Always a pleasure to watch this fascinating series. Special thanks to the entire team for putting it together.
Our pleasure!
I admire the people because they get over it and sometimes through it with smiles. I love it!
The man's great words to his son👌💯 🇰🇪 🇰🇪
Amazing work, well done for this piece of work, keep giving us more we appreciate💕
We will!
Respect for The Guy who is maintaining the Road May God take care of All needs ❤️
Very resilient people. I have nothing but respect for them 🙏✊🏽
Probably the best documentaries I've ever watched hats off to the team
I feel their pain of my African brothers in Ivory coast. much love from Kenya 🇰🇪
A huge respect to all those drivers and the filming crew, I can't even imagine driving on those roads, it takes a lot of courage and determination 🫡
After watching endless hours of these documentaries. My heart has been lowered to a level of humility that Jesus would even be proud of.
If you watch this in better living conditions youre a king/queen. My heart goes out to these men and women😢😥
The man with one leg is one of the bravest men I have ever seen.aint gunna lie it made me tear up a little bit I wish there was some way to raise money for him so he can live a peaceful life. God will have a special place in heaven for that man. God bless him 🙏 ❤
Oh God be kind to him ....the road repair person....very very encouraging..
What a great job....many many thanks with respect for you sir 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤❤❤❤❤(from India)
Against insurmountable odds and obstacles,the grit,the drive,the positivity in the face of life’s challenges don’t dampen the African spirit as far as the great documentaries I’ve watched here evidence,great work FD and keep it up👍.
This series right here made me realise that i should appreciate life more, people are having it tough time out. Wishing good days to everyone out there in Ivory Coast. Also like to thank the entire team for putting the series it together.🙏💪
we will pass on the good wishes and thank you!
Lots of people praising the "road repair guy" but forgot the main problem; Chocolate is one of the most lucrative item in the world and remember when you have one, 5 yo kids work on the plants and that is not just Ivory Coast problem.
That hit deep, “without risk you gain nothing” 💯
and that too with example by watching
Dear Person That's Reading This You May Be Goin Through Something But God Got U He Didn’t Bring You This Way To Far To Quit.We Don’t Know Each Other But I Wish U All The Best In Life 2022 And Beyond.🇧🇸❤️~Marcia~
Beautiful documentary.... love from India 🇮🇳💐🙏
The resilience of the cocoa producers in the Ivory Coast is truly remarkable. Despite the challenging conditions and crumbling infrastructure, they persevere to bring their product to the world. Their determination and dedication are an inspiration. Thanks to the documentary for shedding light on their struggles and unwavering spirit.
What a fabulous documentary portraying all the details & the emotional roller coaster of all those amazing people of the ivory coast. Keep up the great work!!!! God bless.
God bless the road repair man 🙏🏽❤️
This is one of the best episodes so far especially the parts at the bus station
Human will to survive is unbelievable.
It's incredible how every single one of these documentaries is beautiful and funny and fascinating. This one was amazing. Thanks from a longtime fan
Hopefully all people have a good heart like that of the disabled man repairing the potholes in the roads...
Damn .. This is hell on earth ... Gotta respect their tenacity and willpower
El tipo que repara la carretera, incluso con su discapacidad, es un verdadero héroe.
MI HEROE.
Ai
This was an automatic thumbs up before even watching. Amazing video as always. Thank you
Sunday spent well 🥰
Please tell us how we can help this people! ❤ they deserve so much more!
the guy that was repairing the road the best
You have to love their resolve. They have next to nothing and are not stressed out. There is something to be said about this life style.
Not stressed out, but they are exhausted... Still hell.
You are doing a great job. I can spen a whole day watching your documentaries. Thanks!
*Nestlé loves this*
Always great timing. Thank you for it.
The story looks so unreal, it's like a legendary movie
One of your best documentary. Love it. Thanks for this good work always a pleasure on Sunday
I really like these documentaries as they reveal more than just the landscape, but the heart of the people, the culture... It also shows how creative and resourceful people will be in order to survive. some of these vehicles should be scrapped, and yet they are forced to continue by the sheer will power of the people...
No matter what we look like, we all want the same thing; a better life for our kids and security for our loved ones.. Much respect for these folks
Oh wow finally my favorite series
Nothing coming easy! those who struggling the life, definitely have a powerful hope.🙏🔥🇸🇴
It's remarkable how good their skin is there. It's very clear and healthy for most people. Dark skin is so beautiful, it amazes me that people can dislike someone for the color of their skin.
They shower everyday and exfoliate their skin with the hard sponge to scrubb of dirt. Then they use natural ointments like Coco butter, Shea butter based oil, vaseline... Which are been marketed now as some special natural products for skin
Love how resourceful they are, Ive used stuff to fix stuff that fixes other stuff, hillbillied things and there are ways to figure things out, outside the box of the box even. GET IT ODNE GUYS MUCH PROPS!
Kenya is heaven on earth... I've arrived at this point since I started watching these documentaries.
Yes bro. Imagine the guy fixing the road. I dont have much but I wish we had a way to contact.
I wish all who are commenting here please to help the guy who is repairing the road even he is disabled
This was an incredible documentary
For the last 52 minutes i was glued to my mobile phone screen. Great work.
for me, this is THE GREATEST youtube channel, keep doing great work FD
U Guys Are Amazing What a interesting Documentary Thanks
Special Thanks To Ur All Team For Share This With us just loving it 🥰😍
Feminism doesn't appear when trucks are stuck on mud roads😂
Growing up in this area and surviving is by Gods Grace. From kenya🇰🇪❤️❤️❤️
Seeing those sweet children out in the cocoa fields and around the gold mines having to work so hard just absolutely breaks my heart 💔 Also the amazing man who is maintaining the roads, I hope he is blessed ten fold! What a hero ❤
God bless Africa ❤ May he always provide all it’s hard working and resilient people
44:30 Abu has the Spirit we all need! The concept of brotherly love & taking action oneself, where & as best we can. Not waiting for some government to fix everything for us in exchange for our liberty. That man made this video. God bless him & his example.
God bless the one legged man repairing the roads.
Love this series from 🇨🇦
The best series ever after a long time
I couldn’t imagine my life or my children’s lives at such a young age working in such dangerous difficult situations! They are definitely deserving of a better life and I hope one day their lives will improve!
Great documentary!!! Good morning from Brazil
