  • Pablo also known as Jesus, a friend of mine that I made whilst visiting Rio, was eager to show me around his neighbourhood or Favela where he was born and raised.
    "Zona Norte" (North Zone) is known to have the worst Favelas in the whole of Brazil, with armed militias roaming and guarding the streets.
    I was not expecting what was about to go down.
    Get your popcorn ready.
    Valeu!

    I don't get the impression that this is just to show off, like some (haters) claims.

Anyway, those that I have met from Rio would tell me that naive tourists see all the glamour of Copacabana Beach, and the mistake many make is they stray from Copacabana to just a block behind, and the safety factor is MUCH less than it was just a couple minutes earlier, and that tourists get in trouble a lot as a result.

    Interesting to me that in the decades I watched mainstream television, no attempts were made by the BBC or its competition to portray favella inhabitants as human beings with the same hopes and fears as the rest of us. It's *almost* as if some in high-up positions want us to be suspicious of and fear each other so the divisions and misunderstandings remain. Bless you Kurt, you're doing magnificent work.

      There have 100% been docs on the BBC and CBC depicting the inhabitants of the fevallas as being normal people just in extreme poverty surrounded by continuing violence, one where the followed one guy and his family who sell shirts.
      However they also have a responsibility not to fool dumb western travelers into thinking "oh let me just go there for a good cheap time, take some drugs, sleep with some prostitutes and enjoy the culture" because the reality is 70% will be get robbed 5% maybe killed.

If you believe the BBC they would have you believe that women don't walk around the streets, everyone is homeless, etc. They're the stupid ones who report international news on crime that happens with homeless people. Imagine if we did that to every country, you'd portray them as second class constantly.

    There is something so special about these incredible videos. No type of journalist comes even close to him. Kurt really brings you with on a trip, meets and interacts with locals, strolls through the streets, visits homes and you just really get a good impression of the life in such incredibly dangerous and normally completely inaccessible areas of the world. It is because nobody dares to expose himself to such dangers, and is not able to look at everything from another perspective, that there is comparatively nobody like him. It is incredibly fascinating to see how the people adapt to live in such circumstances, from the electricity supply to the gunshots and self-regulated favelas. I appreciate every video Kurt, and I hope you keep doing what you do and love!

It is facinating to see how the locals live and how humble the people are. I am coloured from South Africa and i can really relate to the locals, they are thousands of kilometres/miles away and speak a different langauge but we're not really that different, it is amazing.

      Acredito que muito de vocês, digo "estrangeiros" ...
      Não tem noção, de quanto o Brasil é grande e existem cidades tão seguras e modernas como a Europa.
      Agora, muito de vocês, assistem esse tipo de vídeo, feito por um turista louco, dentro de uma comunidade do Rio de Janeiro, e que para muitos dos telespectadores acham que o Brasil inteiro, se resume a isso: "Tiroteio, carnaval, favelas e mulher?"
      Bem... Onde eu moro, eu saio nas ruas, até mesmo 3:00am da madrugada, quando não tem uma alma viva sabe... E adivinha?! A probabilidade de acontecer algo ruim, tomar um tiro de bala perdida ou mesmo assaltado, é de 0,9%. (Tive como base, a taxa de furtos que houve nos últimos meses para chegar nesse cálculo.)
      Agora, uma coisa que vocês devem saber para agregar ao assunto, eu moro eu um bairro de periferia, chamado de "extremo leste", do mapa da cidade... Isso quer dizer, que o nosso bairro ainda está em desenvolvimento, muito das casas, ainda não conseguiram terminar suas obras de construção, deixando o bairro ainda aparentemente mediano. Para finalizar, vou deixar uma informação de relevância. O Brasil é dividido em 27 estados, somados quase 6 mil municípios, e cada munício as vezes com mais de 6 cidades.
      Então, se vocês querem ver o lado tranquilo do BRASIL, com um aspecto bonito, limpo, seguro, ótima culinária(sem menosprezar os outros lugares), com lindas moradias e estruturas urbanas. Aconselho te, viajar para o Sul do País. Aos que tem preferência pelo Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Belo Horizonte, cidades, com muita urbanização, vocês sempre encontrarão áreas com mais precariedade. A tendência é popular e expandir, enquanto o desenvolvimento é mais expressivo em áreas mais próximos ao centro; enquanto os bairros e lugares que estão mais afastados do centro, aparentemente ficam esquecidos pelos seus governantes, pois falta muita obra de saneamento, engenharia de trânsito, e outros fatores que nem preciso mencionar. "Esses caras", tem se dedicado mais, a bairros, de pessoas com poder aquisitivo maior. Ou seja, os ricos, a parte pobre, "que se fuc*".

      Acredito que muito de vocês, digo "estrangeiros" ...
      Não tem noção, de quanto o Brasil é grande e existem cidades tão seguras e modernas, como na Europa por exemplo.
      Agora, muito de vocês, assistem esse tipo de vídeo, feito por um turista louco, dentro de uma comunidade do Rio de Janeiro, e que para muitos dos telespectadores acham que o Brasil inteiro, se resume a isso: "Tiroteio, carnaval, favelas e mulher?"
      Bem... Onde eu moro, eu saio nas ruas, até mesmo 3:00am da madrugada, quando não tem uma alma viva sabe... E adivinha?! A probabilidade de acontecer algo ruim, tomar um tiro de bala perdida ou mesmo assaltado, é de 0,9%. (Tive como base, a taxa de furtos que houve nos últimos meses para chegar nesse cálculo.)
      Agora, uma coisa que vocês devem saber para agregar ao assunto, eu moro eu um bairro de periferia, chamado de "extremo leste", do mapa da cidade... Isso quer dizer, que o nosso bairro ainda está em desenvolvimento, muito das casas, ainda não conseguiram terminar suas obras de construção, deixando o bairro ainda aparentemente mediano. Para finalizar, vou deixar uma informação de relevância. O Brasil é dividido em 27 estados, somados quase 6 mil municípios, e cada munício as vezes com mais de 6 cidades.
      Então, se vocês querem ver o lado tranquilo do BRASIL, com um aspecto bonito, limpo, seguro, ótima culinária(sem menosprezar os outros lugares), com lindas moradias e estruturas urbanas. Aconselho te, viajar para o Sul do País. Aos que tem preferência pelo Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo, Belo Horizonte, cidades, com muita urbanização, vocês sempre encontrarão áreas com mais precariedade e violência. A tendência da mesma, é popular e expandir, enquanto o desenvolvimento, pode ser mais mais expressivo em áreas mais próximas do centro da cidade; enquanto os bairros e lugares que estão mais afastados do "centro", aparentemente ficam esquecidos pelos seus governantes, pois falta muita obra de saneamento, engenharia de trânsito, e outros fatores que nem preciso mencionar. "Esses caras", tem se dedicado mais, a bairros, de pessoas com poder aquisitivo maior; ou seja, os ricos... A parte mais precária, o pobre, "que se fuc*".

    Pablo was a great guide. He might have been the person in charge of the area, or close to it. I have a hard time imagining that the local groups would be cool with him leading around an outsider, if Pablo didn't have some considerable connection to them. Maybe he's just a relative, of someone high-up. Kurt, was dapping everyone up, showing nothing but respect to everyone he met. He also put his head down, everytime he was asked to. You have to give respect to get respect. I get the feeling that this video was made due to that kind of mutual respect being established before hand. This didn't come across as a propaganda piece at all. More of a really honest "check out my neighborhood" this is where I'm from, and what it's like video. Really appreciate Pablo, and you sharing it with everyone. Much love to you, and all the people out in Zona Norte, doing the best they can with what they got.

      @@DiegoHernandez-id6pe I don't know about Brazil, the other places I do know about though... Wouldn't let a stranger walk around a hot area like that video taping stuff that could potentially get them killed by the police or rival gangs, off the word of an unafiliated hoodie. Not everyone likes everyone, even if you live in a small town, or tight knit community. I highly doubt that just anyone who lives there could act as a guide like Pablo did without running into some trouble. Don't buy it.
      I'm not saying he has to be directly involved in anything either.
      He has to be well known, and well liked by every single group patroling there though. Otherwise they would both get blasted.
      Pablo is straight up telling people it's cool that this stranger is video taping, both during and right after a gun fight. Dude has some cred. Not anyone in the favela can do that.

      It's just not how it works man, Pablo had no connections or nothing crazy, he was just respectful and not dumb. As he said, it's a community, and respect and boundaries go a long way. If you are born there or known by the community you are treated with respect, most of the times. But it's still a sort of a complicated situation, because the gang members (bandidos) are still cruel and unfair sometimes, but they still help the community a lot, sometimes too, people get caught in the middle of things and get treated as hostages, just like they did (especially in occasions where there is a fight or invasion going on). An example of that, is when a person who is not from that "favela" or area drives in a danger zone by accident or not knowing the correct entrance protocol (especially when there is a fight or invasion going on). They're probably going to get shot at. Favelas are the biggest communities in Brasil (they're small cities), things run a lot different here from other places around the world.
