African Kid Sees White Guy, Thinks He's A Ghost (#51) 

One year has passed since the ghost entered the village. We recently went back to visit Maria and see how she was doing, you can see that here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GEu_GKD2x9k.html

Imagine chilling at ur home and a purple man appears at ur door.

The first time I visited Switzerland, I was sat in a restaurant and a boy about 2.5 years old came and bit my hand. I thought he was a brat but he kept screaming - Chokolaaaaa, Chokolaaaaaa. The parents were so embarrassed and apologized profusely. I didn’t know why everyone in the restaurant was laughing to hard until they explained that the boy thought I was a big Chocolate 🍫. I’m an African. Kids everywhere are so innocent. In Europe when I wear my Afro, I allow the kids to touch my hair but say no to adults.

My son was white and blond. His African friend was terrified to go in the water because it made my son bald. His wet hair just became a part of his pink scalp. The fear was so real.

If only he had been a ginger too. The kid would've legit thought that his head is on fire like Ghost Rider 💀.

Plot twist: a ghost was actually following the white guy the entire time and the kid was the only one who saw it

"That white man will eat me." This fear would have been legit in the 1500s.😂😂

Okay but how her parents handled it is so good for her emotional development. Instead of hiding in fear, she was encouraged to face what she was scared of until she was calm. ❤

"Hes not going to eat you, if he does we'll beat him" *Parenting: 100*

This is how they trained Usain Bolt. Took him 20 years to find out it wasn't a ghost.

😂😂😂😂😂 as an African, I can’t stop laughing.

thats too sweet 😭😭 the innocence of a child’s mind will continue to astonish me! What a darling moment 🤣😭

Imagine if the adults starting to pretend they're not seeing him, that kid would never recover from that trauma

The white man has to wear a white t-shirt on the same day. Excellent.

As a black man when i was in a que for shopping in Serbia 2014 there was a boy with his mom all the time the kid was hiding behind his mom crying

I love Uganda. Such a beautiful country and the people are so friendly. Always up beat and smiling, even when times are tough. Such great spirited people.

The girl be feeling like the whole village is trying to sacrifice her to some monster lol

“He is not going to eat you, if he does we are going to beat him”. If you’re an Afro descendant, you know...it’s blank truth.

"im scared of white people too"😂 6:29

Bro just remembered his past life💀

LMFAO Y'ALL THIS HAPPENED TO MY FATHER. He accidentally entered a daycare in Africa and all the kids started crying and screaming for their moms, they thought he was a ghost 😭😭😭

Plot twist: white guy is secretly a ghost

Our ancestors should have reacted the same way when that first ship showed up in Africa 🤦🏾‍♀️

She so cute ❤❤ and the guy was so understanding and compassionate. His « white people scare me too » got me wheezing 😂

"I'm scared of white people too"

In my childhood these are things i used to believe 😅😅 1. In fourth grade, I used to believe some fascinating things. I thought the Earth was flat, floating on water, and that if we used too much water, the Earth would sink, causing summer. Conversely, if we conserved water, the levels would rise, bringing us closer to the sun and initiating summer. 2. At that time, I also had some interesting ideas about our bodies. I thought we were made entirely of water and food, with no bones. When I learned about bones, I was scared of jumping and being hit, so I told my teacher not to punish me physically. 3. Another belief I had was that standing in the rain would make me taller. 4. I was convinced that the Ben 10 watch was real, and even at 21, I still hold onto that belief. 5. A memorable incident was when I went to the movies and saw a fire scene. I panicked, thinking it was real, and screamed for my parents to leave because I didn't want to die. 6. Lastly, I believed that the moon followed me at night because my mom once jokingly told the moon to do so.

The kid: *refuses to do simple task* The Mother: "If you do not do what you're told to do, I will call that Caucasian man again!"

So, this video is basically, “why are you runnin'?”

Awww that poor baby! I am not sure that forcing her to go to him was best. I hope she is thriving and doing well.

In 2004 me and my daughter went to Sudan She was only 4 years old and when she saw black people in the airport she started crying, scared 😅 kids r beautiful ❤

Imagine encountering a ghost saying "Come here, don't be scared". Of course, I'll f******* run too

When he said "am scared of white people too" 😂

This reminds me of my own childhood ignorance. I'm from Northeast Africa but as a child, i was terrified the first time i saw a South Sudanese man ( they're the tallest, darkest people in Africa). Later in 2nd grade, they brought this girl with light colored eyes ( greyish green, i think) and the children surrounded her saying "wow, she has eyes just like a cat". That's the only think we could compare it to because we'd never seen any human with that eyes before. Kids are innocent and honest. I doesn't surprise me that such first encounters happen around the world in places with little exposure to outside world.

Thank you for the love Tommy

The kid telling her story 10 years later: "I have seen the scariest shit of my life....."

Plot twist: he is actually a ghost and only the kids are aware

this is why I love kids who live in africa. Their just so funny to watch them discover new things!

Kids are so innocent.

"If he eats you we will beat him" LOOL 😂

These people aren’t racist, just imagine a purple guy wearing a purple shirt coming into your village

During the time of the Conquistadors in the 1500s the natives of the Americas thought that the Spaniards were supernatural because of their pale skin, something like ghosts, or spirits. When Captain Cook visited Australia in 1770 the aborigines thought he and his men were ghosts because of their pale complexion.

Poor girl lol she was really scared and they were pushing her too much. At least the white guy respected her boundaries.

Shows scary and creepy things The kid : kalm Shows a white man The kid : panik real shit

"He wont do anything. If he does, we'll beat him" Him: "ye- huh?"

Indeed it hapened to me in a different way. In Spain i was a little kid, like 3 years, (i dont remember exactly), and i saw a black man and i pointed to him and screaming "moooom a ghoooost", while crying scared.

I would've lost my sanity. As a kid I was afraid of bald people with a mustache..Some human being with a skin colour I never saw nor imagined? I would have peed my pants

Memorable Quotes: "He's going to eat me" "If he does, we'll beat him" "I'm scared of white people too" "Typical effect I have on children.... and most people"

I have a Mexican Grandma she was mesmerized when she saw a black person for the first time. Pure innocence

This caption is priceless!😅

White kid sees black guy, thinks he's a shadow

It's not just the color, this dude is a whole foot taller than anyone in that village.

This kid will grow up and probably create an Urban legend about you along the line of "The white man that came from the underworld"

The difference is we embrace other people while they hate us. Sad truth.

"I'm a road inspector" That is exactly what a ghost WOULD say.

Genuine question, why does she think he's going to eat her? Like, i get that she's afraid but that's an awfully specific scenario she's asociating his whiteness with. Is that a horrorstory told to kids there? Or do they think unknown things eat them to protect them from dsngerous wildlife?

I understand that people find it Abusive for forcing her to see the white man. But its completely necessary. Even at her age. She should not be sheltered from the world, its important that she meets people who look a little different than her. Btw I'm black.

Imagine being a tourist going to some village and then some kid starts crying because they think you're going to eat them lmao

Plot twist: he’s actually a demon that’s appears human to only adults and cameras

Aww bless her you can understand. Her fear .if you've never seen a person with a different skin colour she was so terrified ..i hope she settled down and when she gets older she look back and laugh about it ❤❤

i always cry with this video

That scared girl will have a great story to tell her grandchildren someday.

Child: He's gonna eat me Mom: He's not gonna eat you, if he does we'll beat him 😂😂

Such a heartwarming story ☺️☺️☺️🙏🙏💜💜💜💜💜💜.

Everyone's pointing out how scared she is because she's never seen a white person. No doubt that's part of it, but he's also _way_ taller than everyone else and has a full beard. He's basically a pale-skinned hairy giant, and that probably makes him even scarier. Imagine if you were a little white kid who had no idea black people existed, and the very first black person you saw was Shaq. And then everyone started laughing at you and made you hold his giant hand. You'd probably be terrified.

When he said “I’m also afraid of white people” LMFAOOOO

She shouldn't feel so bad. When I was about four years old I remember seeing black people for the first time. I thought they were made of chocolate.

Good job precious one.

Plot twist: He's actually a real ghost, yet nobody has noticed it

I'm just dying at the fact that the first thing she thought was that the white dude was going to EAT her

When I was young I went to an isolated village in meghalaya. I don’t think they had seen a white girl before. There was an older child shouting at me names in his language. It was they who were aggressive. It felt really horrible because at the time I was isolated in other ways. So I experienced racism as a white person. I’m glad to know what it feels like.

50 years later, he becomes a folk legend in the village used to scare kids into going to bed early by the village elder Maria

imagine living in a village where everyone is the same color without any phones or connection to the outside world, then suddenly one day a different colored man shows up, i’d be freaking out too lmao

If it were the other way around (white child afraid of a black person), the child would be condemned for being racist and the parents blamed for not teaching their child to be culturally sensitive.

Little girl: Then suddenly the entire village decided to sacrifice me to the ghost and dragged mo towards it. I am lucky to be alive today.

I've seen white people and I've seen black people but if I saw a green person I probably would cry too thinking he's going to bite me.that's what that little girl is experiencing a new color person 😭

Hes not gonna eat you, hes just gonna steal your music

I don't know why I cried why she finally took his hand in her hand. it's funny yet so heartwarming. I wish her to get ample opportunities in life to explore the world. ❤

Imagine if it's a 7 ft white guy with full body tattoo and lots of hair 😂

“I’m scared of white people too”. Got me

It's obviously very cute and funny, but It's interesting to imagine it from the girl's perspective. It just shows how we're instinctively afraid of the unknown.

In Japan i caught a child staring at me (pale latino man) on a train and said konnichiwa (one out of like 5 japanese words i know) to him. He looked absolutely shocked 😂

"I'm scared of white people too" Got me dying Edit: I came back after 2 months and damn, like damn yall are insane

Plot twist the white guy is an actual ghost and only Maria can see his true form.

Yes this is a common phenomenon in SouthAuckland , New Zealand also, it was a gradual realisation that people had never seen a European person before. People don’t know how to act or behave. Some people get very frightened.

Imagine how they would react to a stereotypical woke person from NA💀 (Like colourful hair and weird hairstyle, weird clothes😅) Or the buff tall trans with big dong dong💀

If she think he's scary, imagine Mark Zuckerberg arriving to tell these people about a new metaverse🤣

Adults: "lmaoo scared children" Children: "I'm being sacrificed"

so innocent. people that say children don't see color are clearly living in a mixed race society. which is nice. but you can't ignore that what is sooooo different for a child like this is scary!

Depsite of being so secluded and remote, the people are still encouraging their children to welcome a guest with gentle handshake.

Yeah now mom know what to do when kid miss behaves (like refuses to eat food )😂

I love how the title implicates he has a 51 episode series where he scares foreign children by making them think he is a ghost.

"It's okay, no problem. I'm scared of white people too!"

I can’t believe this was in 2021, it feels like a lot longer ago for some reason.

The adults: *laughing and having a good time* All the children: DEATH IS UPON US!!

This takes "why are you running?" Another level Yo she did the Usain bolt. She might have a future in track.

The man should crouch down, not tower over that poor girl

I'm white and when i visited certain villages in Africa, the locals were mostly just curious rarher than frightened. I did get a lot of folks wanting to feel my hair texture and all that. Felt weird.

Imagine as a kid, seeing a green adult bearded man, that how she felt.
