Well David. This was very well done and very intriguing. Africa strong and Ghana strong. I will forgo making comments about the food except to say that it all looked delicious. Makes you strong. This one had me in turmoil because of the mixed emotions I had watching it. The coffins were a reminder that we all have to leave this earth one day. They were very nice though. Now the second and part of the third videos is where it got very emotional. To see you walk through that horrific building (that's what I would call it), and to imagine what these people went through as slaves and the way they were treated is mind-boggling. I had to close my eyes and envision what it was like, and I have to say that what I saw was undescribable that tears came to my eyes. That was the most powerful thing I have seen and heard about slavery. Thank you very much for including it in your trip there. You know you hear people tell stories or make movies about slavery, but when you actually go there and show us and explain it, along with your guide, well, it does something to the conscious mind. Anyone watching this should be affected emotionally. So, now as you moved on, the rest of the video was very light-hearted and enjoyable. Didn't think I would see you eat coco worms, (had to close my eyes for that one)😅😅😅. Thank goodness you are somewhat of a daredevil, walking on those suspension bridges had me on edge 😱😲. There is so much more to write, but, alas, I will just have to cut it short. So, David, this one was filled with a lot of mixed emotions: happy, sad, tearful, happy but enjoyable. African people are STRONG, resilient and a happy people too. I didn't think I would get through this, but I did, and I am glad I didn't put off watching it. Very well done. God bless you David. Much love and respect always.🙏💛🫂🇹🇹🇨🇦

Hi David... man you just became one of my favourite RU-vidrs with this one.. real history Africans living in Africa don't go to places like you did...inspiring and I just want to say I appreciate every story you had to tell...FYI Bush meat is delicious 😂
Lovely. I live in the UK but originally from Ghana, Kumasi. I attended University in Cape Coast and loved it. Such an amazing video and thank for making this.
This was a really very informative video of Ghana ...the markets ....delicious foods ...colorful fishing villages and the History of the Slave Trade....hearing all about and what the people faced was really heartbraking to listen to . Very sad memories of what humans are capable of . As always thanks David for showing us as some of us may never be able to visit...Stay safe ,,,Blessings.
Another amazing video David!! Wow first time I'm seeing coffin done this way too. I think its so unique, to honour the person. Yes again the food looks so delicious. So much to learn and see in this Epic country❤🙏
Next time you should plan a tour trip for some of your American friends and family to Ghana 🇬🇭thank you for the little history about my ancestors 🇧🇧 love the video 💞💞💞
David eating waakye "This is the best dish I've had in Ghana". Also David eating Omotuo(rice balls} "This is the best dish I've had in Ghana" and then there was the TZ too...yea all the food is good it is easy to fall in love with any of them🤩😘
Hi David I love you videos, I lived in Ghana for many years my Dad worked as an engineer in Obuasi. I am Indian and loved your videos on India. I lived in Bangalore. You are so respectful of the cultures and are so comfortable with all the people you meet. I also respect the fact that you obey the laws of masks. Some tubers hated wearing masks even when they were supposed to, your demeanor and respect for people is enduring. I am hooked. Just started watching your videos. You take us into the culture, food and places of interest. Will keep on watching.
Hey My Friend I am still following you from Kenya. I have never been to Ghana, but I will enjoy through you Enjoy. Just Know Africa is 3 times the size of USA, meaning very wide and looong distances
Thank you so much Jah Issa! I will be back with the next part of my Kenya Series starting next week in Mombasa! Can't wait to share it with you and absolutely! It is a huge continent and it would take a lifetime to see it all! Hope you have a blessed weekend Jah Issa!!
Very educational. Watching the dungeons and hearing the horrific and evil stories was very painful. Thank you for sharing your experience about Ghana and Kenya!!
Thank you for doing such an awesome job, David. You and your team are amazing. I’m catching up on all your videos that I missed because I was so busy. I literally cried hearing the barbaric history of the slave trade at Cape Coast Castle. So much atrocities happened to our ancestors and no one takes accountability. You were very brave eating that soup with the slime. It didn’t look very appetising. Thank you for not eating the rodent 😂
Thank you truly Tearoze. So grateful for your support and so true about it being such horrible atrocities. It is truly sad what evil people are capable of and dehumanizing other brothers and sisters in the world. Wishing you a blessed New Years!
@@Davidsbeenhere Thank you so much David! You’re my favourite content creator. New beginnings are just around the corner so cheers to a year where every day is a celebration of life 🍻
I lived in Ghana (specifically Cape Coast) for a couple years and loved it. I'll admit, I wasn't the biggest fan of some of the foods, but I absolutely loved yoko gari (red red). I ate it almost every day for a year for lunch. Ghana's egg sandwiches are something I loved as well and I've tried replicating how I saw them make it, but I can't quite seem to get the same level of flavor for whatever reason. Waakye is great. Rice and tomato stew is always a good option as well. Fufu with nkatenkwan (ground nut soup) is also a solid one and is the last thing I ate before leaving and coming back to the US. Love the video as well, really throws me back to my time there and it's always good to see Cape Coast again!
Many caribbean people are of Ghanaian heritage such as 🇯🇲 Jamaica, Barbados 🇧🇧 and other islands and Latin America. I am salivating watching you go town on the delicious Cassava Fufu and and the Stews.❤❤❤
Each time I watch a tour of the dungeons of pure evil and atrocities it is easy to imagine the horror our ancestors endured with a tremendous pain in my stomach. I feel our enslaved ancestors spirits. The evil mankind continues to inflict upon each other is Neverending in today's world . Will it ever stop.
Marlene Pollard: hi Marlene. It is gut-wrenching to see and hear the horrors that these people (slaves) went through. I call them people because they were people first before they became slaves. Too bad there is still modern-day slavery going on. Have a great day.
Hopefully in the future the Ghanaian government will invest in a modern and more organized fish market .I am amazed watching how many fishing boats are docked as you walked over the bridge.
Coffins were amazing and a beautiful way to honor loved ones. The food looked amazing. Never had African dishes . Would love to try some. NO bush meat though lol.. Resilient hard working people The past history of turmoil was really heart breaking to. Im glad they were able to move forward and make life better. Must have been really scary and horrific then my heart goes out to them. Slavery is one of the worst things mankind can do to each other. Just sad. After good meal that looked amazing. So many boats. Lots of fish wow. Lots of work to smoke and preserve all that fish. Amazing. Beautiful Jungle and would love to go hiking there!! if I could. The rope walk was awesome what views. You can keep the worms though lol.. Interesting process to get the palm oils . Never seen that before either. Thanks for another awesome Documentary!! God Bless♥
excuse my language, but the guide is selfish, he enjoys his food , watches david eats his the wrong way and not explain how is done, thats terrible behavior.
eric dako: this is the 21st century and you are talking about the right way and wrong way to eat. What about just enjoying the food. Give the guide a break. Do you honestly think that your body cares whether you eat food the right or wrong way? Food is for sustenance and nourishment for the body.
@@ninasinaman4492 that's right. There should be no right way or wrong way to eat. Just eat and enjoy. I respect peoples' custom and I know David does too.
the alcohol helped you alot lol i can see it in your eyes you were nice off the drink! its always recommended if you drink to drink in ghana before you eat!
Goat is good but it just needs to be cooked right and long enough to be tender. If you under cook it yes it will be cooked but not tender enough. I love goat when it's cooked properly
The natives prefer the tough meat and when served tender, they didnt like it. Its a cultural prefrence and therefore cant necessisarily be deemed not cooked properly. Source: Sonny on The Best Food Review Show.
Ekow Simpson: David visited Kenya last year to do these videos. He is not in Kenya now. You are now watching the series. All of David's videos are taped and shown at a later date, just as others do.
@@rosy8751 oops. I am so sorry. My mistake. I have been watching so many of David's videos, I can't keep up sometimes. My bad. Of course Ghana. I still have a lot more videos to watch.✌️👍🇹🇹🇨🇦
David when you go to any Indian restaurant you don’t have to eat with your fingers that’s only in south India now hardly any one eats by hands everyone is westernized You are telling everyone not to use your left hand while eating you are wrong that was long time ago now everyone uses fork & spoons when you are in US let them use fork & spoon the way you are teaching them like it’s a crime to use your left hand You just visit local places in India when you visit high end restaurants it’s better than in US. Don’t tell them that why Indians use there left hand while eating that’s a insult to all Indians just because you were there for just few days you know everything. Everyone uses fork & spoon unless you eat samosas or any snacks…just F Y I
the pounding of the fufu is done the chewing for you, all you need to do is grab a mouth size bite , scoop soup , then down the hatch then eat the meat seperate, and thats how is done yall who has no idea how🙏☝
Erik dako: Mr. Know-it-all. Do you honestly believe that your body cares about the right or wrong way to eat food: chew or not to chew? Give me a break.
Maggie Dorau: part of David's visit to these countries is showing how he gets to different places and if it's by driving, then so be it. If you don't want to see the driving, you can fast forward.
