Beirut, Lebanon: Aftermath of the Port Explosion 

🔴Happy to share more of the Lebanese people's story in this video. The current situation in Lebanon is something beyond words. *If you would like to support the people of Lebanon, you can donate here:* www.justgiving.com/fundraising/indigo-traveller1 🇱🇧

This is better and more informative than any other media outlet in the world. Indigo Traveller seriously putting in the work to bring fantastic content.

This is the type of vlog content that the world should be binge watching!

Shame on that mans kids.. They could be sending him money 😢 I feel sorry for him..

this old man had me crying how can his children be so cruel

Nick words can't describe how valuable you are to this world. Your channel is priceless.

he would be a better unicef ambassador then all this fake celebs!

As a Lebanese person this makes me feel so sad because I remember the old beirut and i know that its the worst it has ever been . I am also capable of understand some of the untranslated clips which makes me angry that the politicians responsible for this crisis are still free.

My 92-year-old grandma has always told me she wishes there were documentaries in which people travel to other countries and show us the real day-to-day existence of normal people. She finds travel shows fake, overly stylised and limited in their scope. I am so pleased I can now send your channel to her... though whether she can work a RU-vid link remains to be seen!

I really had to cry, after the old man said that the only perspective he has is the end...Hopefully he is alright with our help .__.

Lebanese people are the happiest depressed people you'll ever meet. Thank you for everything.

And here in the west people cry if they can’t get the latest PlayStation or iPhone. Puts things into perspective and shows that this world is profoundly and fundamentally unjust. Some people never get a chance just because they were born into hopeless circumstances.

you are the loveliest of humans and the loveliest of souls!!!! as always, in the words of indigo traveller himself, "beautiful". we love you, mate!

This is amazing content.

That mans children should be ashamed of themselves, if my mother or father no matter what terms we were on were left to live like that in their 80s I'd be on the next plane to Lebanon, thank you for sharing their stories

I really appreciate him for linking donation sites in the video description. You can tell he's a great person

I hope you enjoyed our country that means the world to us❤️🇱🇧

I am all tears, the story of Sameer really touched me.

I was in Beirut in 2017. for the first time and I fell in love with the people there, they're so pleasant and warm that I had the feeling like I lived there forever. I'm from Serbia and I've learned that buildings can be rebuilt, cars are bunch of steel and in reality we own only what we can fit in our pockets. Your life and lifes of your loved ones are much more valuable, just don't loose your hope! Love you all from Serbia!

This was heartbreaking to watch. That poor old man 😭 my prayers continue for the people of Lebanon. I love you Lebanon 🇱🇧🇱🇧🇱🇧

You don't usually get to see the aftermath of events like this so great work in showing it Nick - superb series so far!!! thanks

When you are not satisfied with your life because cant buy latest smart phone watch this Thank god for what he has given to you Stay safe 👍 🌹

this is no longer indigo traveller, this is indigo journalism! amazing work

The old man broke my heart. No matter how my father treated me as a child he's still a human being and I would at least provide him a food and shelter no matter what

Nick , you nail it with your reports - great work and greetings to the great people of Lebanon .

Mark my words. The return of Indigo Traveller signals a return of normalcy for 2021 and beyond.

"I was Lucky today" brings tears to my eyes. this sums up the situation in Lebanon .

As a Lebanese who lives far from Beirut (in my village up North) I can say that this has affected all Lebanese people. On the same night and immediately the next day we assembled ourselves and went down to Beirut to assist in any way we could (from cleaning the streets to helping the Lebanese army and fire fighters with the search for the missing to organising NGOs for a rapid response). Those who couldn't help on site, helped through social media by spreading the word and raise awareness about what really happened (and on that note I thank you on behalf of my fellow Lebanese people for your work and hope you would come back again under much better circumstances ❤❤) We did all of this and the government still hasn't lifted a finger ( I don't even recall witnessing or reading an apology or condolences to the families of the victims from anyone) Thanks again for everything!! Keep up the good work ❤

Damn I'm Lebanese and I've been living in France for a little more than a year, I left when everything was somehow okay and look at Beirut now, this makes my heart ache, so sorry my beautiful Lebanon

Nick, you're the BEST travel journalist I've ever seen. You gift us with excellent reporting while remaining objective. Also, I love how you allow the people of the country to do the reporting by sharing their stories to the rest of the world!

My Sunday morning news. Thank you Nick! When this explosion happened, I was on a flight to Luxor, Egypt. I was devastated when I saw this on my television monitor. I instantly prayed for the people, while flying over this country. May this city recover and heal in peace. ❤️

When he asked about his future Old man said death and laughed 😟😞

I left Lebanon a year ago to study abroad, and to see the country collapse just like that broke me. Thank you for standing with Lebanon during such times.❤️🙏

Australia has a massive Lebanese community. I helped my neighbours (they are Lebs) help pack up a store room full of donations to be sent to Beirut. I'm Anglo Saxon myself, and the Lebs in Australia are great. It's only right that we help each other out.

When Samir said “I was lucky today” I just crying. 😭😭😭😭😭

سلام عليك يا بيروت 💔😞 في حياتي.. لم أقابل لبنانيا إلا رأيته مرحا محبا للحياة.. سهل التعامل جميل الطباع بسوم الوجه.... لبنان لا يستحق كل هذا التقصير والألم من قادته وحكومته... ما فيه شعب في العالم يكره شعب.. لو كان الأمر بيد الشعوب لوجد شعب لبنان يد العون مليئة بكل ما يحتاج إليه..وأكثر لكن بيروقراطية الدول والحكومات المقرفة عقدت المشهد بالكامل.... لك الله يا لبنان..... والله أشعر بالأسى والألم لأن أشاهد اي إنسان مريض او مسن او بدون مأوى... ويحتاج ولا يجد.. مهما كان لونه ودينه... أدعوا كل إنسان ان يبذل جهده لدعم.الجهات والمؤسسات الخيرية في لبنان من الرياض.. تحية لك يا بيروت💚 تحية لشعبك الجميل 💚 وادعوا الله أن ينهض لبنان بسلام ومحبة ورخاء 💓

That is truly sad with Samir, I felt so terrible seeing and listening to that poor old man.

I hope his children see this video, maybe one day. No one should have to live like this when there are people in this world that make millions A DAY. It deeply saddens me that we aren't doing more for people who need it and deserve it. I wish that man so much health and happiness. Make his house wonderful please and thank you for sharing this!

Thanks for shedding more light on the situation! Much love from all the Lebanese people ❤️

Your videos are always genuine. Showing the local people in a very respectful way is what makes watching your videos always both impressing and touching. Thanks again, Nick, you´re doing an awesome job!

Thank you for sheding light on our country 🇱🇧🇱🇧 and for the fundraiser. Hoping to see some positive side about the Lebanese in the future episode ❤

Thank you for bringing attention to how horrific conditions are for these people. What are we here for if not to help others.

Samir said the bread has mold. No one deserves to live like this :( He deserves more than just a new home.

I am enjoyed of this video dude ...you such a great RU-vidr and let's praying for Lebanon 🙏🇱🇧 From 🇦🇺

Oh my Beirut 💔 The world needs to know. Thank you Nick 🙏🏻🙏🏻

This video hit me really hard, that poor man Samir and others, heartbreaking. Thank you Nick so much 😢

Emotional video that brought tears to my eyes when I saw that old man saying that only death awaits him, please, give what you can and thank you Nick for your work.

Always healthy for the citizens of Beirut Lebanon greetings from us Indonesian Muslims🇮🇩♥️🇱🇧

This makes me so sad and to think how lucky we all are to not be in such a situation. So sad. Really urges you to appreciate the littlest things in life and really brings out gratefullness in everyone.

You are the epitome of journalism. Thank you for sharing their stories.

Nick, you're doing a wonderful job! I could never have understood the real struggle that Lebanese people face in their daily life by watching the TV news which only gives a very superficial coverage of the situation. Thank you for doing this. Love and support to all the Lebanese people from India.

1st class content as usual Nick, you're not just a travel vlogger but you're fast becoming a top tier documentary maker.

Whenever I watch your videos, I feel like I'm traveling with you. The places you take us are beautiful and heartbreaking sometimes. I appreciate that you always manage to find a little hope. The world needs more hope in the midst of all the desperation around us. We are stronger together. Thank you 🙏🏻❤️✌🏼

the development of your channel is incredible. One of the most important on youtube

The places you go in the stories you tell on your channel are so very important. The amount of awareness you raise in these countries I think it’s critical to helping them.

“I love life,” what an encouragement!

I will contribute to this as soon as I have a job. Which will be soon hopefully. I know the funds will be in good hands. 🇮🇳🤝🇱🇧

God bless Lebanon! Thanks, Nick for showing Lebanon through your lens. The utter devastation and precarious situation Lebanese people have to go through is heart-wrenching.

Thank you so much for shedding light on this topic! We could use the support and compassion of every and anyone. Keep up the good work and best of luck❤️👌🏻

Amazing work Nick. Just phenomenal journalism and a great cause you're spreading. Lots of love from Beirut.

It's heartbreaking to see these people suffering. The disgusting media has already forgotten about Beirut. I'm glad Indigo Traveller is informing us of what's happening in reality and giving a voice to the Lebanese.

I just want to say thank you. My heart and spirit have not stopped hurting for my people and my family in Lebanon since the blast. Thank you for telling their story.

Nick, you are such a gift! I've enjoyed watching your videos for a while, learning about cultures and peoples from around the world. But this series on Lebanon is powerful. Hard to watch and needed. Thank you for sharing with the world what mainline media outlets stopped talking about. Much love from Berlin. God bless you.

I can never compile the words to express how grateful the world is for people like you SIr. This channel is hands down the most underrated channel on RU-vid, I have been on YT since 2005, using it for my primary media since 2010, there's few people out here with your heart and passion to deliver truth and educate the rest of the world on things that the AP doesn't care about reporting after the "action" dies down thus allowing the world to forget sometimes what's actually going on around them.

glad to see you are back and healthy - greetings from munich

Lebanon is so amazing! I hope they recover quickly! Good to see you on the road again brother!

Thanks for shedding light. Much love from Beirut!

I had no intention of donating, but after watching your video I can't imagine not donating. What a worthy cause to open our pocketbooks to.

Pray for Lebanon .🇱🇧💔🇸🇦

Nick, you do such an amazing job at showing the heart of the everyday people! Bringing truth to the world, that we otherwise would never see or hear. Your kind soul brings out the love we should all have for humanity, regardless of ethnicity, financial situations, religious beliefs, etc. Thank you for all that you do! Blessings and safety to you as you continue your work!

Hi Nick I have recently discovered your channel , you are a wonderful human being and so brave . You open our eyes to the most tragic parts of the world .Your empathy and compassion you show to the people you meet is so humbling . All the very best wishes to you

Thank you for doing everything you do, even if it’s simply showing us such devastating parts of the world and how hopeful and how thankful some of these people are for life, it’s saddens me how much first world countries complain about such petty things. Keep doing great things🥰

Shame on the government of Lebanon for letting their people live like this

All your shows (Lebanon, Venezuela, Honduras) make me feel incredibly blessed. May these folks find peace, happiness, and good fortune.

This is so sad...brings tears to my eyes. Your work is so touching. Please continue to share as I always share your videos! Love and light!

Great work brother, your big fan since the "North korea" video. Loved the work in Venezuela and Now here in Lebanon as well. Love from India brother❤🇮🇳. Missed you in pendemic. 🤗😉😅

God bless these people.

I’m so glad to have found your channel over a year ago. Thank you for all you do 🙏🏻

Thank you so much for letting the world know how much help is needed. Such beautiful people and my heart is with them😢😢❤️❤️

I feel so so sorry for Samir, I really hope his life gets better

Even when destroyed the streets look beautiful.

Thank you so much for spending awareness. Your videos are so inspirational. I donated and I hope everyone else can take part to save others and give them a chance in life

hey Nick you are more than a simple RU-vidr you are an authentic journalist doing a remarkable job through your videos we know the harsh reality of various countries such as Venezuela or Lebanon and we can also contribute with what we can to give hope to the local communities Peace and Love !

God bless Lebanon 🇱🇧 🙏🏻🙏🏻 Makes my heart hurt to see this tragedy. Inshallah peace will come.

Those old man's words...I'm speechless....

I'm beyond shocked. It's so raw but the world needs to see. Keep it coming. This is awesome work Nick👍🏻

Don't know why people dislike this video. But Nick you need bigger audience, this is the real world i watch you video's from the beginning. Better then all the other media. Keep up the great work🙌

Thank you so much for sharing the insights of the country. People really should know about what's going in there. My condolences go to all the Lebanese people.

Good investigation for the whole world. Hats off Nick❤

This guy is doing more for the issues in Lebanon now than any other news source I've seen, including media in Lebanon. Venezuela, Lebanon, North Korea, you're fearless brother. This is more important than you know and your influence may not be felt for years to come, but KEEP THEM COMING. My Lebanese family back home appreciates this, as do us ex-pats in Canada

Thank you as always for bringing our brothers and sisters around the world to us.

8:00 beautiful words, when u start hate life u start fall into decomposition of health both physical and mental

All the best for the Lebanese ppl!!

You’re seem so nice and humble! I love your inviting spirt and welcoming smile 😊 thank you so much for showing us a glimpse into a much different world then so many of us are used too! As an American I can tell you that people here just don’t realize how good they have got it! I look forward to seeing more people and places and wish you many more safe travels 🙏❤️🫶

You have such an empathetic and informative way about your videos. You really are a great person to cover this kind of material. I appreciate your work!

I feel sad for the old man, and I am from Malaysia and we help you. Insya-Allah, Allah help you too.

So much for the loving children not. Why wouldn't they try to get their dad to Canada?

Thank you Nick for showing the world in the way you are doing. Hope you continue to do this but also take time for yourself to deal with all you have seen first hand.

Amazing work as always. Thanks for your commitment and effort in bringing out authentic, quality and real content with real people of the world

If you know these streets before the explosion, I swear you are going to cry, these streets had the best nightlife and they were the most beautiful, I miss it, I miss the old beirut 😔😔😭, Indigo traveller stop walking in the heartbreaking towns and go see the Lebanese nature and ancient phoenicia
