Ghana: Business on the Track | Deadliest Journeys
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 чер 2024
- 00:00 Ghana, a small country in West Africa, is the world's second largest cocoa producer. It's the end of the season. By motorbike or on foot, Jeff and his companions transport the precious commodity through the bush and try to reach the city to sell the fruit of their harvest.
6:16 They harvest Coca but have never seen or eaten chocolate
9:13 Ever wondered how chocolate was made ?
30:11 White Gold is an important part of the economy
38:35 Times are hard, even at the border control
In the center of the country, Lake Volta is the largest artificial lake in the world. Several times a week, locals cross it to get to the market. But everything gets complicated when it comes to loading the cattle on the boats, and having passengers and animals live together? Ghana is also renowned for its funeral rites, and its very special kind of coffins. These must represent the profession exercised by the deceased during his life. Along the roads, manufacturers compete in ingenuity: the coffins take the form of multicolored fish, sewing machines, Bibles, or even bush taxis? Funerals are not easy. They sometimes take on the appearance of carnivals. The dead live there again? - Розваги
That "what a shock" at the funeral banners is uncalled for . I laughed ngl
Awesome documentary. The leadership of Ghana must do something about the infrastructure especially roads. Arise Ghana Arise
The infrastructure will not change due to endemic corruption, any aid stays with the rich..simple as,as ever.
They dont care about the citizens
Dude it's 3rd world country run by dictators it will unfortunately never get better. None of those countries will be better. Population would have to spill blood to fix anything and history tells us none in such countries has will to do so. That's the biggest difference between Europe and Africa, in Europe as history teaches us most inadequate rulers end up killed by people its mentality that doesn't exist in Africa as even before colonisation dictators or "God kings" ruled with iron fist since down of times so they never developed that rebellious spirit as it was brutally squished for countless generations. Only thing that could fix it would be 3rd party intervention but we all know how that ends up.
They will rather buy a Landcruiser. Incompetent leaders bugger all in their head.
Leadership? Keep dreaming 😅. This and every other African country will always be a dump
Much love and respect 🙏🏽 to the people of Ghana 🇬🇭. I love coffee ☕ and chocolates and I can thank this country directly. I also appreciate their culture very much. They are positive people and care for their ancestors by honoring them and asking God for protection and to carry the dead to the next chapter of the afterlife.
Thank you for your love of coffee... and chocolate directly supporting child slave labor!
@@kevinadams9468 Glass houses and such.. with your comment being typed on a device that has such labor incorporated into its production.
The burial rituals and practices were quite shocking to me. I come from Kenya, in East Africa, and our funerals are quite morbid and full of crys and wailing, unlike in Ghana where it is more of a celebration. What a diverse beautiful world!
Ndolo u should present one of the dead at the next funeral like they did. I bet you the whole village will run for their lifes 😆
Am from Ghana. And we call it Soloku
Especially when the dead is a young guy like 20-25...It's not easy... dancing all night till next day when he's buried
I respect these hard-working folks and wish them happiness and prosperity. From Sri Lanka
A country whereby we have everything to boast of yet we are suffering.... Arise ghana youth for your country.
29:57 wow it's impressive to see some of them drive brand new trucks like this! Big respect for this all hard working people 🙏
I am amazed by the resilience and the resolve of this people to endure hardship and progress in life.
This truly makes me appreciate my life.
I loved this documentary! I'm inspired! I wish it was longer. I'll go to find some other of your videos to binge watch. I love watching other countries when I can't travel as much as I would like! Great video! I hope to make some great documentaries one day.
True
The strength of my people is unmatched❤u cant hold black people down no matter wat we will rise ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤shouts from England 🏴

The older I get the more I'm falling in love with my beloved Africa. 🇺🇸
Then why won't you go back and save us the trouble
Your beloved Africa??? They sold your ancestors, and you talk about loving it and call them your people??? Really?? You grew up in Chicago!!😂😂😂😂
then stay there
I'll be so happy once I have people realize that we aren't from Africa the Americas is ours and it always has been . We didn't get the name African-American until the year of 83 they are trying to confuse you of Who You Are. Is too much information out here now why people are waking up knowing and understanding understanding that this is our land. Always have been and always will be we are the indigenous of this land.
“The maximum number of people I can take on my boat I would say is between 50 and 150”. Now here’s a real Precision-minded Engineer. What he’s saying is anybody’s guess
Greetings to all the viewers here....
Hoping for peace and success for you....
Yes here again to support.....
Much respect to these hard-working people
👊💕🍀
Thanks for the insight !
Ghana is evidently a country of much potential, but hamstrung by inadequate and under-maintained infrastructure starting with decent roads and navigable waterways. Hoping that ECOWAS initiatives can give both higher priority, to improve traffic safety and increase productivity so that Ghanaians can do more things for themselves.
If they organized themselves they could do whatever they wanted
Ain't gonna lie. From 15:32 onward is just creepy af. Hell of a show though. Always keep coming back for more.
Yes very creepy and disturbing
Our leaders are the reason why we have all these resource and as a Ghanaian am the hot middle East hustling
Another great video.
The documentary its very helpful to know about many people suffering for their daily living
Parabéns pelo documentário 🇧🇷.
Wow, this is the Ghanaian region of Trokosi slavery culture we saw on 60Minutes magazine some yrs back.I love Ghana documentaries for the otherworldly vibes.
Thanks for the insight !
This documentary is absolutely amazing!!!!!!!!! I really enjoyed the burial scene I love seeing how other cultures live
Wow, this is life on the seafront, using manual tools, for traditional trade that is still entrenched in almost all corners of the world. Your content is very good, sla success
So much to learn it so knowledgeable, thank you for all of your precious efforts team..
beautiful documentary
Good humor, "none of the riders have drivers' license , anyway navigating in the bush is not taught in the driving schools"
I have so Much respect for These women working hard every day❤
Hope Ghana starts building proper buildings and infrastructure, it's upsetting to look at these conditions
Life isn't fair mostly cause of some decisions made long time ago appreciate the little you have,peace n love with mental strength 💪🏾 🖤❤🤎💛💚💙🤍💔
Very inspiring, even they are poor as me,they are happy, with their culture, they condolence each other
As a Ghanaian living in Accra . This documentary does a good job at exposing some deep parts of the country but dont be swayed. 70% of Ghana doesn't have such bad roads. Just check out some videos on the " year of rerturn " which is an initiative that brought many Ghanaians in diaspora back home. Who better to tell the Ghanaian tale like Ghanaians themselves. Dont get me wrong, these documentaries aren't wrong but dont just assume the entire country lives like this.
indeed,Iv come to understand that these documentaries are really one dimensional, and only depict a narrow portion of the whole story
I am very impressed and happy to watch this documentary, I feel ashamed of myself struggling just a little and complaining tired. Is there anything the documentary film team has created that can help those who are struggling in life and work and those who are going through difficult days?
... The 'Struggle' Is Relative Isn't It 🤔🏴🖖 18:07
GLAD TO SEE KOTOKOLI PEOPLE CONTRIBUTING TO THE ECONOMY OF GHANA BY FARMING COCOA
Ghanas cocoa is of the highest quality, so that foreigners would smuggle cocoa into the country to sell it at a higher price. However, the farmers still get a relatively low price from the gorvernment, which pockets the usually higher price on the international market. A policy introduced by nkruma, which originally was meant to protect the producers but still stifles the forthcoming of this beautiful nation today.

Roads important in Ghana transportation
Masha Allah very nice video and very interested life is very hard God bless you all Ameen
No matter how bad the situation becomes they always look happy doing their job..we complain about our work in the cities so this video has helped me to be apperciate our jobs..
Ya betul dengan adanya video seperti ini membuat Saya semangat lagi untuk mejalani hari" Saya dengan pekerjaan Saya
Breaks my heart to see people struggling to survive when there is so many resources....but like any corrupted governments around the world they get rich while exploiting it's people and the land!
If the people would wake up and take power back it would solve their problems. But everytime I watch these documentaries in Africa, I get the overwhelming sense that everyone is just looking out for themselves, just trying to get one up on the people around them. Greed is a horrible sin, but it's the root of all of Africa's problems
@@lukefarnham2119 Europe is the root of all Africa's problem.
O h,ooo
African people work so hard, but their corrupt governments just line their own pockets!
People and the government are the same everywhere. When you travel to these countries you will see most people are also corrupt when given the opportunity. The leaders are just better at it.
Amazing incredible Africa
These guys carrying the coffin ⚰️ reminds the meme with the guys dancing with the coffin 🤣🤣
🤫..... Who knows they might be at your doorstep 🤫😂
The guys dancing with the coffin are also Ghanaian. It's a Ghanaian thing.
@zulantsanglao309 why would they be at your door step?
Like watching this documentary from Kenya
Please upload new episodes
We have it WAY to easy in the USA 🇺🇸 respect to Africa 💯 💪
As if ur real American
Anda bukan orng amerika asli Saya yakin nenek moyang anda juga berasal dari afrika
No you don't. America is worse. Mass shootings every month. Drive byes killing innocent children.
Straight soldiers 💯
After watching a lot of these types of videos I notice that survival is hard but no one is on prescription drugs to help with anxiety or depression. They are not weak like the rest of the world. It’s just called life. Straight up tough.
No drugs? They drink dangerous homemade alcohol like fishes and huff glue and other solvents. Sorry to disrupt your silly narrative.
I agree with you 💯‼️
Sounds you never traveled. Do you really think people have no anxiety or depression because they work hard? Do you live under a rock? When you have to struggle to fulfill to basics of food, water or shelter working to death you would be pretty depressed. Unfortunately for them they don’t have anyone to help including their own government. Same government that will give out lucrative contracts to foreign companies and not hire their own people for work.
شكراء على إضافة الترجمه بااللغه العربيه😀😀
工作就一定可以过好日子❤🎉！
a banana boat coffin great idea
First time seeing a funeral being so frenzy...
Miis u ghana.. my second country❤😊
Um país rico com potencial enorme explorado pelos Europeus a séculos !
I've seen this before with different and superior narration.
Possibly a copyright issue with the original narrator. Including a remastering of the sound with some editing tweaks.
Yes I prefer the other dudes voice as well.
Deben hacer otra versión de viajes mortales pero en botes o barcas..lanchas
Похороны это просто бомба!!!
With all the export the gvt should atlst make decent roads to the farms
Hope the country will recover and prosper in the future..
The leaders are ignorant, they only think about family, for them alone to live luxurious. So I tell you this country don't have future.. that's why Ghanaians travel a lot to europe and Other countries.they are very hardworking youths so as soon as they get to the outside world they prosper and the whole family feel like their problem, pains and trauma are forgotten...so pls if you meet anyone from Ghana traveling treat them well because something is hunting them
@@simeonydevice313 Pathetic response. Are you even Ghanaian?
Un bon documenter
Hello videos gods friends👍👍👍👍👍👍from indonesia
Love you
excellent work!
apik banget, Ghana ora terlalu mlarat, luih becik ketimbang negoro Afrika liysne
ممنون ازاین برنامه وزیرنویس فارسی🙏🇮🇷🇮🇷🇮🇷🇮🇷🇮🇷🇮🇷
petani garam yang unik
The country Ghana and many anglophone countries are private companies of the United Kingdom🇬🇭
Hmmm
It's big business and that's international these days, worked by the most ruthless crooks.
And this is one of the BEST (!) countries in Africa. That we even take them seriously...
Can we just appreciate 2:46. My man’s hair is on swim G!!!
I've already watched it along time ago bro...😛😛😛 Upload new
❤️❤️❤️love
What a bloody scary funeral that was... "crazy"
Путешествия этой съёмочной группы настолько смертоносны, что они сняли уже 100 серий
I want a funeral like that ✊🏾✊🏾
In Uganda only 2 motor bikes would have transported the 650 kg cocoa
가나에는 코코아관이 있네요
이해가됩니다. 아~~ 아프니카
i so much understang the woman collecting salt bc i have back pain working from 7 till 9 pm
Povo de Gana terra boa de pessoas trabalhadoras, mais o governo deveria colocar mais estruturas pra vcs .
Love to Ghana.
Why is there nothing to be blurred in the top left corner, that is blurred all the time? That is crazy, is it? Why not blur the entire frame? Saves bitrate, too.
140 lbs resting on the head cannot be good for the neck over time… it’s sad that it had to be that way.
That's why when you get into a boxing ring and find out that the opponent is from the local village of these countries,Ghana, Nigerian, bourkina faso, Ivory coast,cameroon, and some south sahara countries u should run..
The similarities between Ghanaian funerals and funerals that happen in New Orleans are insane 🤝🏾🫂
Why?
Their will power is just amazi g
This documtary is very old 1..😉
@8:30-If he's late in delivering the cocoa, he looses part of his salary. I would have loved if you had given an estimate of the salary these drivers are paid. As a native in Ghana, I can tell you they are so poorly paid. About $150.00 a month.
that very under paid
World wide transportation systems will improve all nations
Why the re-upload again?
imagine if the deceased rose again
Lol after all that shaking you can guarantee he definitely is Dead
Surprised he didnt with all the noise and banging
They will in the end days it's written in revelations
Then this student is dressed and ready for it!
Well they was not dead to be gain with.
What a Shock
Crazy
We breezed over something extremely important… in the beginning it was stated that the people of the country don’t really benefit off the Coco they farm. The government buys it from the farmers? How much do they pay the farmers and how much do they sell it for to other countries? I’d be very curious to see those numbers.
15:18 what a shock! hahahaha
I have never seen such a coffin 🤔
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Coming soon to your area. We will be introducing matatu coffins soon
🙏🙏🙏
Lanjut bang
I'd rather meet somebody out there without technology than somebody with technology.
