    @Noe Martinez Guifarro - a lot of places will do that (example being Caracas, some neighbourhood in some cities in Africa, Asia, EU), but a lot won't. And they will be brutal about it, and things will escalate quickly. And this is applicable not only to South America, and so on - but a lot of places in Europe, Asia, Africa too. You just have to have a common sense. Just because you are some foreigner, recording everything, and traveling solo - across the globe - for a lot of people this will be completely miningless. They will rob you, beat the crap out of you, and in a lot of cases kill you, just because. And I'm saying that as somebody who worked and used to live in over 20+ countries, and having 4 different passports - allowing me to move quite freely in across EU, US, UK, Australia and so on. Edit: grammar/spelling

    ​@@77LUCKYNUMBER77 - from the top of my head: Marseille. My god... But a lot of others too, to be honest. It's not about the cities as such, but specific neighbourhoods withing them. And this is where a common sense is important. London? Too general. But something like Croydon, a bit south of London, still within a Tube zones? Mixed feeling, as personally I know people who had been robbed there (young lady, just because she was talking on the new mobile phone, and a guy with a mask simply took it away from her, just outside of the station). Been there a lot myself, as I've been contracting for a large insurance company (almost just across the East Croydon station; don't want to put any names here). Plenty of other experiences from something like a Hammersmith area and others (hell even around Bank Station, Euston, Victoria, London Bridge and Waterloo you can be easily pick pocket by professionals -> and yeah, I've been working around all of them). Canary Wharf over the weekend - almost empty (comparing to the usuall daily rush hours) - and there is plenty of places that you can be taken advantage of over the weekend (especially if you are a turist). Paris or Rome? My god. Valetta, or Berlin - better. But I rather take Valetta. Northern countries (Finland, Norway, Iceland)? Much better. A lot. No comparison. Most of my experiences were good over there, in fact - very, very good. If anybody think that any major city in EU is safe? Sure. In general. Comparing to South America or Africa, Asia and so on (different game over there in a lot of cases). But is it actually "safe"? Nah. Again, this is where a simple common sense is important, because some people... can be really brutal. A lot, without any remorse, no matter what the country, or city. And they would forget that you (as a turist) existed 5 seconds after they would rob you. Hell even in Barcelona, outside of usual turist places you can be beaten - if you go outside usual main places, or everything inside your car can be taken away (if it is rental). Been there, and experienced that myself in a way (on the way to Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys, a large stadium within the city)... Note: All in all, move outside your city, village, country. Travel a lot. Work in other countries. Experience everything, just beyond reading newspapers. And then... you will see.

    When he's walking the streets, he's getting checked out. People on bikes driving past him. People looking at him from a distance. A white man walking the streets alone, in the day and talking to a camera, recording himself as walks. The reason he manages to walk these streets and not have any trouble is down to him being able to speak the language. He can hold a conversation with the people he meets. So he gains respect.

    generally you can rob but not harm tourists, especially not male tourists, even the crooks know that. if your a traveling tourist and your robbed and let go you can go to the police and watch basically as they question you "why you left the resort, why you were traveling alone, why did you go to that area" but if a tourist is physically harmed or god forbid killed, watch that whole neighborhood get rained down on by the police for weeks, the locals know this and avoid those situations because of it. your safer as a tourist then as a local sadly, so don't try and blend in too much.

    Brothers or sisters, the kingdom of GOD is near, we need to repent and believe in Jesus Christ, so that our sins can be forgiven, and we can have eternal life. If we don't believe in Jesus, we will die in our own sins. Lying, Stealing, murders, evil heart, revellings, hatred, emulations, arrogant, strife, Envyings, commit adultery, seditions, bad words, porn, didn't honour father and mother, worship idol, homosexual, fortune teller, black magic, blasphemed GOD, claiming self to be GOD, calling a man as GOD, worship things made of gold, silver, wood, stone or other materials, worship animal as GOD, against GOD, did not want to repent and believe in JESUS, take the name of GOD/JESUS in vain and other evils things, these all are sins. If we did 1 of these things before, it makes us sinner. If we continue to do these things or sinning, we will die in our own sins.We need to repent through Jesus, to make our relationship with GOD good again, because There will be a judgement day 1 day, The people who believe in Jesus Christ and follow his commands will enter the kingdom of GOD, but the people who don't believe in Jesus and done evil/bad things/sinners will enter Hell. Only Jesus can give you joy and real peace in your heart, only Jesus can forgive your sins, only Jesus can lead you to be a righteous man. No other name except JESUS can save your soul and lead you to heaven. This is about our eternal life and eternal death, so believe in Jesus and repent(Confess to GOD that we're sinner, stop sinning and follow Jesus teaching), to save our own soul and life. Repent, and be baptized every one of us in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and we shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. The Holy Spirit/Ghost will guide us on how to become a righteous man, live and work according to GOD's will. Lord Jesus said: luke6: 37 Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven: You can read BIBLE online by searching it on google, you can start read from the book of JOHN. You can learn Jesus teaching from there.Or here's one: www.esv.org/John+1/ If you have any stress, problem in your life, you can pray to Jesus and ask for His help, Jesus will listen to your prayer. GOD is our Father, He is the ONE who made us and everything in this world. It's time for us to return to Him and acknowledge Him as our Father through Jesus Christ. Wake up people, return to your only ONE Almighty GOD and Father.

    People have the same opinion as Sacramento, but my father visited The US once and said the locals over there were very polite people, but if you view counties the negative way, then I could tell you that every country in the world (probably even Switzerland and Luxembourg) have a bad side, in The Netherlands we call it ‘vooroordeel’ which basically means like you saying ‘I saw the country on the news once and all I heard was it was a dangerous city/country. Whilst you never visited the country in your live, people see The Netherlands as a country full of wealth but with Cities as Amsterdam, The Hague, Eindhoven, Rotterdam and Utrecht, the criminal rate is very high especially in those five that I just mentioned, and all people talk about is ‘the country is full of wealth so there won’t be a problem with criminality’.

I've been to tons of these types of places and as long as you're not flaunting expensive jewelry or have tons of cash, at worst you'll be asked if you want drug's. Don't follow anybody to any shady looking places where there aren't people around, use common sense, be friendly to everybody and you'll be fine.

    As much as I would like to say that my people don’t do this, I can’t, because they very much do. My brother’s girlfriend came with us to Santo Domingo for the first time and she definitely doesn’t look Dominican. So they knew she was just a tourist there. Everywhere we went they tried to charge her 3x even 4x the original price. Especially at the beach, I had bought this necklace for 1000 pesos (which is like $18 US) but when my brother’s girlfriend tried they charged her 2500 pesos for just one and she was planning on buying two. But she did it without noticing that she was being scammed. Obviously I’m not gonna say that my people are ALL like this but there are definitely quite a bit. But my country is overall beautiful, there’s a lot of hard working and admirable people just trying to enjoy life. ❤️🇩🇴

    @@tamarfermin6902 .... I understand that, I was just commenting on the majority of his interactions in this video as opposed to other videos. For the most part, they were treating him like a local. To be fair, I think when you go to more touristy spots in any country, that's when you get hustlers preying on tourists (beaches, bazaars, nightclubs, etc) . Since he was in an almost entirely no-tourist area, I think he got the regular treatment they all normally extend to each other because the predatory mentality wasn't there since they're not accustomed to dealing with tourists. You notice that trend in all his videos. If he's deep in a Brazilian favela, the locals are very honest & respectable. But if he's buying a towel on the beach in Rio de Janeiro, they're looking to extract as much as humanly possible lol. It's quite the opposite from what you'd expect.
