India, the Himalayas Acrobats | Deadliest Journeys 

Every second of this documentary beats an hour of the garbage on TV nowadays. Thank You.

Everyone in the USA should see this documentary. What is remarkable about so many Indian people is their optimism. Instead of complaining about the cold, they focus on how happy they will be when they see grandma again. We can learn so much from them.

I'm sitting here, far away from danger, in a cozy apartment watching this documentary. Just watching it makes me feel sick. I admire these people for their courage, their tenacity, their trust and all the skills it takes to live there.

Amazing!! We live in lower middle Himalayas in the same state of Himachal Pradesh. But nature here is not so harsh. Twenty years back I have been at Kaza, to where Rakesh driven his truck. Nothing is easy here and the mountains are really ruthless and have no mercy. Thanks to the constituion of India which has gaurded and preserved the identity of these people residing in these tribal areas.

India is so huge. Being in the south of India with a comfortable lifestyle it's mesmerizing to see life in the Himalayas. Bravos..

Started this video to spend 5 mnts.... but couldn't stop before the END.. Thank you itz simply GREAT..

"The Villagers in the said mountains hold solidarity and mutual aid as core values, without these values none of the villagers could survive. Such is life on top of the world" 😊❤️

I am from the state of Maharashtra in India, I often hear people say that the north and the east is not developed and all, but I don't think they know the hardship these people go through just to survive. We in the south and the west are so lucky to have such good landscape and weather. God bless them with love and prosperity. May India prosper immensely and wholly so that our such hardworking people get better infrastructure and a better life they deserve.

I'm 70 years old and I live in a medium-sized city in Brazil. Watching this documentary I see how life in my city is very easy compared to what this documentary presented. Still, around here, there are many people who complained about the life they lead with all the facilities of the modern world. Congratulations on the documentary, it was excellent.

I have never seen a documentary like this. And, from now on, I will never complain about life, we are living lavish in big cities. Greetings from Pakistan.

The best documentary I have ever watched...love from South Africa ❤❤❤.

Every single second of this documentary is gold....Long live my India 🇮🇳🙏

Salute : - 1. To the Makers of this Beautiful Documentary . 2. To the People who live there. 3. To the Drivers who deliver essentials there . 4. To the hardships these people have to face . Best part is these people are living together without the use of cellphones which is parting people nowadays . They don't talk because of them (cellphones) . Even the people who live in Himachal can't afford to risk their lives by travelling on these roads .

.Out of all the "Most deadliest road" videos I've watched, the one to Kaza has to be the worst. It's truly amazing how anyone could drive a big truck on that road. Best wishes to the drivers for a safe journey, and to all the people who live up there. Also, great documentary! And bravo to the brave crew who were brave enough to travel on those roads to get this great footage!

A wonderful insight into the lives of people living on the top of the world and the brave drivers who dice with death taking passengers and supplies to extremely difficult places to reach. Thank you for this amazing and so enjoyable video ! Namaste !

Ten years ago I went to the Spiti valley, from Manali. Years before I was there to do the same but rainfall kept the road closed. It’s even more impressing then the road to Leh. Beside unbelievable nice walks, you can visit the oldest Buddhist temple in India. Also I stayed in a monestary on top of a mountain. There was no need for making reservations in any of the places I visited. Besides the giant scenery made me feel so very small it also made me feel to be on the top of the world. At places where rivers were just wildly crossing the road, the driver told us (I rented a 4x4 together with a Australian and French guy I met in Manali) to get out of the car and climb over the rocks upstream while he drove the car through the water. He did not want to risk our lives as well. A falling stone demolished the rear window of our Tata. And when it got really scary we played the new album of Daft Punk. Awesome trip. Don’t go there when you are short on travel days. Anything could happen.

Oggi ho 70 anni ma a 34 arrivai in India per la prima volta. In 12 mesi avevo vissuto un divorzio e la morte di mio padre; mia madre mi aveva lasciato a 19 anni. Viaggiavo solo ed ero in cerca di risposte. In India capii una cosa semplice, io come quella gente sorridente non ero solo ma parte dell'infinito. Era mio dovere vivere con dignità. Ho fatto del mio meglio, ed ho fatto anche a quel tempo quello stesso viaggio sulla strada di montagna. Uno dei ricordi più belli della mia vita fu sentirmi sereno, e pronto, seduto vicino a quei lontani compagni di viaggio.

WOW Incredible Journey through so dangerous Roads.The guy work in Rajasthan for 4 months during winter ,still travel back to his home town with so difficulty.Its called Family Love and Bond.May God Bless them All.

Heroic documentary, thanks from Estonia, the land of shallow sea, forests and no mountains!👋🇪🇪

Восхитительный фильм, спасибо огромное за такой хороший материал фильма. Это совсем нелегко понимать что люди живут в таких сложных жизненных условиях. Я с семьей живу в Швеции , имею всё неободимое, еду , воду, тёплый дом , любимую работу а главное полноценную семью, слава богу! и только сейчас я понимаю, что мы живем и жалуемся на жизнь, даже совестно стало. мы даже не понимаем насколько мы хорошо живем по соавнению с темитрудностями с которыми сталкиваются этот народ в иидии. желаю вам смирения и крепкого здоровья, пусть благословит вас бог за ваше терпение и смирение.❤❤❤❤❤

In the first half of the 90s I spent three years serving as a UN military observer in Kashmir and Pamir. The spectacular nature of that region still means a great deal to me and so does the freindly and humble attitude from the peoples living in those remote mountain regions. They have my full respect and the pleasent memories will be cherished for the reminder of my life.

It takes westerners to make such videos, so that Indians can appreciate our own country. The spirit of the people in the mountains is admirable. My heart went out to the 6 year old who walked for 2.5 hours in the snow. A big salute to Rakesh, who has to stay away from his family and take on such risky journey.

Мира и благополучия Индии !

I am Indian , my country is very beautiful 😍

По таким дорогам не только страшно и опасно ездить, но и по видео смотреть ужасно страшно, того и гляди сердце разорвется. И в таких местах живут люди и кстати очень скромные и жизнерадостные, не забывают по ,,своему,, благодарить бога! Астрахань. Россия.

They, those people have so much less, but happy and contented in their own way. Fantastic documentry.

My heart went out for the family n their 6yr old daughter who walked for 2.5 hrs in that extreme cold condition. The driver who work so hard risking good life for people n his family. Hats off to the makers of this documentary... In the end, we must stay humble, calm and helpful selflessly. 🙏

I get stressed just watching how dangerous and terrifying these mountain passes are. I find myself holding my breathe just watching what they have to drive and live through. Staying awake through those stressful conditions for 15 plus hours is stressful enough and will ware you out but driving under those circumstances is a billion times worse, people don't realize just how much this drains your body. Most people couldnt drive for 15 minutes with that kind of stress without sleeping for a week after. They are amazing, they definitely do not get enough credit or pay, they should be the highest paid in the country for that journey. Good luck and God bless your daily journeys

i was sitting on the edge, butterflies in my stomach just watching this whole documentary. I can't imagine doing the real journey. these people are very brave and god keep them safe. amazing photography and video. making this documentary must have been nerve wrecking for the film crew too. but a great documentary. i hope the roads conditions have improved further now.

Just wow !!! Amazing documentary. I was getting scared just watching. Can't imagine who actually do it. Kudos to the truck driver. I hope he stays safe and returns to his daughter after every trip.

То ,что для большинства смотрящих это видео тяжёлый подвиг и трудное испытание - для этих людей просто обычная повседневная жизнь / огромное спасибо авторам за возможность познавать мир не вставая с дивана

Props to the brave peeps who made this film. I rode a crazy transport in and out of Kulu Valley in 1976, no joke, crashed buses lying like dead beetles in the bottom of the gorges, this brings it all back.

Just a reminder when we complain for the most trivial things in life.....looking at these videos makes me sad an Happy at the same time....these men risk there lifes for the betterment of other human beings.....I pray that God continues to bless them....love from Guyana SouthAmerica 🇬🇾 🙏 ❤

A video not to be missed. Salutations to all, mountains people, dedicated monks , drivers with nerves of steel and light heart overcoming all too human fears, and those who made this amazing video. I am humbled by their indomitable spirit , how they face such everyday challenges. Jai Bholenath, Namo Buddhe🙏🙏🙏🙏

That’s amazing . In USA we our so modern and a bit spoiled . These people are very very strong . Every day for them is a trial of stamina and humans will. They are so brave, god bless them and keep them well.

Thats here reason why himalayas produce unique soldier of the world🙏🙏

When you think you are living in conditions of hardship. These are some tough people here. Respect

God bless drivers in such dangerous, bad roads, bad difficulty life for one peace of bread. Greetings from Rome Italy

It is very clear that these people, are thousand times more developed in their spirituality and basic family and human values, then the rest of the world. God bless them all.

Absolutely brilliant documentary! Subscribed with delight. Contents like these deserve Academy Awards, and not the utter garbage that passes for Films these days! We want more of this, please!

Весь фильм,как будто ехала с вами и переживала.Какая страшная судьба у этих сильных людей.Надо нашим детям в школах показывать.Да поможет вам Бог

С трудом заставляла смотреть себя на машину гружённую продуктами для поселения на вершине Гималая, сердце от страха холодела от ужаса от одной мысли, что машина улетит в пропасть. Буду молиться за этих отважных людей, которые проходят эти опасные дороги, чтобы довести людей и груз до места их прибытия. Благословит вас всех Всевышний удачей на всю вашу оставшуюся жизнь. Аминь!

Спасибо за интересную информцию...да, жизнь в таких условиях трудная я бы и за 10000 $ не согласился проехать по таким дорогам на такой высоте и обрывах ...удачи каналу жду новых выпусков.....

Love from country of Himalayas " NEPAL " 🇳🇵

As an Eastern European I tought we have it hard living in villages and rural areas its like holiday compare with this hard working people such high up in the mountain life is so difficult incredible

Люди камікадзе на дорогах там. Хай Бог береже усіх

People living in very remote areas have the most pleasant attitude. They may stare at you but once you smile, they open up their hearts.

Fui motorista de caminhao 50 anos mas tiro o chapéu para esses piloto

Living between Hindu Kush and Hindi Raj range of Pakistan, It looks like traveling to my own Village in the mountain. Both Pakistan and India have to open the closed door of trade with each other. We have fed up from both media and our politicians who tried their best for hatred except nothing. Knowing the language of Hindi which is close to Urdu, I can feel their love and sympathy which each other excluding Religion, Race, or Appearance. Love from Pakistan. Long live India

In truth, this documentary has surprised me a lot and it is admirable how all these people live at high altitude and their roads that have a very dangerous high altitude and without spaces for 2 vehicles to circulate. God always protect these people and receive a brotherly greeting from Michoacán Mexico. I apreciate than we have in our countries

Csodálatos tájak,de félelmetesek,rosszak az utak.Tisztelet az autó vezetőknek a bátorságukért Ötletes a drótköteles szállításuk.Köszönöm a felvétel készítőjének, hogy megörökítette ezt a nehéz, küzdelmes életet élők sorsát, küzködéseit.

Absolutely Incredible how resilient these people are, especially the Man and his family!!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾

As an American l probably wouldn't make it living up there high in the mountains. Amazing and the people love where they are from. My prayers for protection for them and the drivers.

this documentary is worth watching , i'm 24 years old from Mauritius Island,i would like to Thanks those who have made this documentary possible as it seem lots of strength and patience to be able to shoot and to get along with the climate change ... each details ,each words were clear which have triggered my whole concentration to this documentary. Each of us is fighting for the needs ,we just have to stop complaining AND KEEP WORKING SMART AND HARD 😇.

I live in South America, a country that is in the center, seeing those routes and places where you can't see vegetation, at high altitudes, with very cold, I admired those people who survive so painfully, in my country we have a very rich land, but the Young people do not have that drive that those people who live in those beautiful but unpleasant places possess. These persons are so strong, god bles you

Superb documentary.... Keep up the good work !! Blessings for all the team behind this beautiful yet informative video

A big thankyou to the makers of this documentry.....salute to all the brave, fearless and tough people living out there....the drivers are doing a commendable job....🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Es admirable la valentía de estas personas, la fuerza de voluntad para vivir en lugares tan lejanos. Mis respetos.

Such a beautiful and humble people ! Soon I will come to India as well !! Thank you for an amazing documentary.

EXCELLENT DOCUMENTRY! My heart goes out to those people living such a hard life. I can't express my admiration towards them.

Rakesh, you and all the people like you are absolute HEROES! I can’t express enough awe and admiration for how you just get on with the job.

MUITO obrigado por compartilhar este maravilhoso filme. Com certeza , a coragem deste povo mostra o quanto o ser humano é forte, fiísica e , principalmente, mentalmente.

Thank you for a good documentary film. God bless these people, I have so much respect for them.

Whao! What a documentary and video, it touched me a lot. i had visited spiti valley, kaza, kinnaur distt this year in june. But i had not seen or felt the life so closely, though drived the suv myself. Thanks for realising the tough life of a common man. The govt has succeeded to make the road till tabo. 100 km Road till manali is still in very bad shape. Kudos to u to make such a beautiful video

Сильный народ. Вольные люди.

Best documentary i have ever seen,i salute the people living at such places

Astounding! The cinematography is remarkable, the commentary concise and not too melodramatic. I felt like I was actually there. Thank you for posting this

When I watch this I felt how fortunate & lucky we are, I am of appreciation of the courage, strength, determination of our fellow humans. they never complain, contended, happy. Wish your lives will be more comfortable soon with better roads. Love you all

I am stunned!...Impressed!...Humbled!...Grateful!...With so many challenges in this magnificent world there is no room for hate or war!...Bless All!❤️

In 1995 I did the bus trip from Gorokpur, India to Kathmandu & t remains one of the most spectacular journeys I have ever done. Stopping of frequent wheel changes you see crashed buses, trucks & cars all along the road which makes this a journey NOT for the nervous. As you climb into the lower Terai of the Himalaya you face arse tight hairpin bends & popping ears & finally you break over the plateau & decened into the beautiful Kathmandu valley. As the humble daughter of a British truck driver who frequently went with my dad on many trucking trips as a child, I never dreamed I would do such a journey, but am so glad I did. However during the same backpacking trip we were nearly killed in a bus crash in China on the Tibetan border in a head on mountain pass collision with a truck. Fortunatly we clamboured out with just cuts & bruises but I shudder to think how dfferent this could have been if our bus has fallen off the mountain into the abyss thousands of feet below. Yet oddly, 20 years later I would give anything to do these journeys again!

Incredible india 🇮🇳 , hats off to these people 😍👏

Мира и покоя в каждой семье! благодаря таким интересным передачам узнаешь очень многого о жизни / быте других народах. Моя каждодневная забота/ проблема просто суета по сравнению с ними

Ни чего себе экстремал😱😱😱у меня поджилки трясутся глядя на это....мама дорогая до чего же страшно

Every second of this documentary gave me goosebumps. Truly incredible India ❤

И эта беспощадная борьба за выживание называется жизнью.. Водитель совершает ежедневный подвиг, но как он свободно ведет авто по жуткой дороге над пропастью. Невероятно. Какие мужественные , сильные натуры у жителей Великой Индии. Храни их Господь.

Though the roads are so dangerous, thanks to this film making us see such beautiful scenery of Indian mountains. In Taiwan, we have very beautiful mountains as well high up to more than three thousand meters altitude, but our roads were well maintained to enable us to drive there to enjoy the beauty of the nature. Those drivers and road maintenance workers in this film are highly appreciated for their bravery and hardworking.

They remind me of the ice drivers in Alaska who haul crude oil over dangerous roads. There is so much hardships in this world and yet they overcome and keep trucking on to survive and make their world a better place, one stone at a time.

You would never catch me on a bus like this and I praise the cameramen for risking themselves to capture the conditions of the Himalayan roads…

It's awesome every road in this valley and I'm very sorry for anyone who dares to go down this road. * The Best Documentary for ever..🌹👍💪🌹

СИЛЬНЫЙ НАРОД ДАЙ БОГ ИМ СЧАСТЬЯ

Thank you for bringing this documentary. Its really fascinating, appreciated all the toughness of all the people there, the drivers, the nomads all the people are very tough living in himalayas . Hope trees can grow back to the mountain. It helps but seems it is more in harvesting without replacing. The mountains might become unstable. The scenery is breathtaking, but the travel is really dangerous.

I wish all of these prople in the documentary have a happy and peaceful life 🙏

Omg!! I’m getting damn scary butterflies in my belly when they show them driving on those steep mountain curves 😢😅

What a fantastic documentary about such a variety of fantastic, inspiring people.

Salut to all those brave people assisting one another living in this mountainous area. Hope people who are responsible for these areas gradually improve their lives. Thank you for sharing this super video.

So much respect and admiration for these peaceful patient people!! May God bless and keep them 🙏

I have travelled to some roads mentioned here..on my 1st trip ,I once tried to look from my bus window ..it sent shivers down my spine..all those hairs at the back of my neck froze ..I couldn't see the depth of the valley..it was so so deep and roads were so narrow..but you will be rewarded with best landscapes .

दिल को छू लेने वाली डॉक्यूमेंट्री Duniya k antim chor takk pahunch kr wahana k sangarshmayi jivan ko darshani ki jo koshish ki gai hai vo sarahniy hai

Great video and nice adventure, bless those people who struggle with mother nature, my blessing to that family with a child as if I have been with them through Thier ordeal, greetings to great Indi and it's people.

Алла күш қуат берсін! Жолдарың ашық болсын! Салем Қазақстаннан! 🇰🇿❤🌹

watching people in such conditions.. boosts the appreciation for what we have..thank-God

😢😮 qué vida está gente y que generaciones...y pensar que los que vivimos en países supuestamente completos.. Noo estamos conformes..si no es la Luz eléctrica oh oh el tema de gas natural y los abastecimiento de los productos de consumo..en fin.. los felicito a los pueblos por su unión de todos y ayuda mutuamente 😊..y reiné la Paz para todos ellos.. me quedo sin palabras la Osadía de esos choferes de camiones y los de transporte de personas 👥👤 Yo también soy chofer de mi propio transporte.. pero de verdad.. Noo me animo a pasar por esos lugares... saludos cordiales desde Argentina pueblo de San Justo provincia de Buenos Aires y muy buen video.. sigan mostrando..😅😂

Beautifully captured documentary on life of Indians in Himalayas through eyes of truck drivers...i have sometime worked in badrinath area and the roads from Delhi were all like this if not worse! But that was two decades back, and now I hear it's better...still mountains offer their own peace and tranquility and it's nicely brought out in this vedio....thank you,the photographer's and narrator to editor.. ❤️

What a story...incredible and amazing!!This is INDIA.

THE COURAGE FOR RAJESH COMES FROM HIS FAMILY ❤❤❤❤ HIS DAUGHTERS WORDS GIVE ME MOTIVATION GREAT WORK RAKESH

You have hand to this lass. Many years ago 1980s I was in Srinagar, I wanted to go to Ladakh. But at time of year as I was waiting for the pass to clear, The only trucks making the journey were military, or desperados: Most of the drivers I saw were stoned. So I chickened out. Now I wish I had had her courage.

Magnifique. Ça me permet de « voyager » par les yeux en des Endroits où je n’irai jamais. Découvrir des Paysages fabuleux, des Êtres dont ne peut parfois soupçonner les conditions de vie, c’est extraordinaire.

Very fantastic video. Beyond imagination. The real life of the mountainarious living in the mouth of death in Himalayas. Thanks to the documentary makers. Also salute to those living in such tough life.
