One Mistake That Changed My life😭😭😭 || Rangdum to Padum || Zanskar valley || 

You guys are all free to comment your thoughts. Appreciate or criticise me, I will read them all with positive attitude. ☺️ Just one clarification, the reason I told him to not look down “Neeche Mat Dekhna” is because, when you look down in a flowing water body it creates an illusion that you are flowing as well. It is always advisable when crossing streams that you look forward so that you can see the shore or end point and focus. Aap neeche dekhoge toh bhi aapko gadde ya patthar nahi dikhenge. Also, I took time before jumping in so that I can reduce the weight and drag that my gears will create, main uske doob jaane ka wait nahi kar raha tha 😀.

change your friend .. Looks like he dont have any idea about the sweeping power of flowing streams of Himalaya .. Even a feet of water is sufficient to carry away your bike .. Both of you should have analysed the depth of the water before jumping in .. Its good to see you guys safe at the end .. The truck guys are the real saviours ..

When you don’t want to take the risk yourself you push the other person to go first 🤦🏽‍♂️

My father was an amazing explorer and motorcyclist, he have been to ladakh more than 15/20 times. He always says "water crossing main agar paani ke niche na dikhe to Himalaya ke nadi ko nala maat samjho. Its very powerful to drag you somewhere else and you can't do anything"

I just came back from the same route a week ago and this crossing clearly wasn't required, there is a fine road that gets you to Padum. There is a fine difference between adventure and stupidity, and please don't post these videos to encourage more people into doing this. Achha content create karne k liye ye sab karne ki zarurat nahi. Stay safe and encourage people into being safe. Good luck.

You don't need enemy if u have a friend like this..🤣🤣🤣

Dost ke naam pe dushman saath leke ghoom rahe ho...khud nahi gaya aapko bhej diya paani me

Look at that overconfidence, idhar ja - udhar ja - phir beh ja 🤦🏻‍♂️

We are Kashmiri ❤️ We always help everyone ❣️ Stay safe Brother 😍

2 Rules for Ladakh Riders : 1. Don't challenge the Nature and don't take shortcuts (unknown, un-explored 'roads') unless you want 'Adventure of your life' literally. 2. Don't forget rule no.1 This was clearly dangerous waters (FYI not even a crossing on normal road-which have max depth 1 feet. But it was a goddarn roaring river on unknown territory which could be deep as 2-5 meters as well). Don't cross a water crossing where you can't see the base(most in Leh region are crystal clear). For muddy/opaque one, if there is no base visible, use a stick to gauge depth. Even if you are hell bound to clear this crossing, first try to walk across it carefully to check depth, instead of going head-on with a fully laden bike. Secondly, never take shortcuts in this region, in worst case , you might get lost and die due to extreme weather. To make things more difficult, air is very thin and cold there, you will lose your breath soon(happens to fairly acclimatized soldiers, BRO workers and athletes as well, imagine us normal people) We got stuck in a snow blizzard while riding bike (on a perfect sunny day!) that is how unpredictable the weather is. Also, travel between 6AM-5/6 PM window only. After that, it can become life threatening in case of any emergency. Land is barren , isolated and unforgiving. I was alone once and being stupid took a shortcut. Sand is as dangerous as water. It seems smooth path to connect to main road but bike got stuck 1/2feet in quick sand. There was nobody around for next 4-5 kms and weather was getting extreme. Only option I had was to abandon the bike but after spending 40-50 mins in chilled breeze and rain (unloading the bike, finding stones/wood to put under tyre, getting out and then again loading ). Since then, I have never taken shortcuts without estimating the risk-reward ratio. So, please go for those adventures only, which allow you to live and tell the story. Don't take stupid risks.

Long ago unsubscribed to Gagan, I am glad! By the advising voice, I thought it was familiar to me. *Way too selfish for pushing & letting his friend face the danger first, and then he would have taken that route if turned out safer!!* No matter how much justifications or humour you mention in comment section, you showed your state of mind. ऐसे मित्रौं से दुर रहो.

With a friend like this you don't need enemies... Hope you make wise decisions while making friends... All the best brother!! On the positive side.. this video is getting you a lot of views. Waiting for the next episode..

How can such a big youtuber and reviewer do such a mistake @gagan Chaudhary…!! This is not adventure my friend ,this is pure stupidity and playing with your life … would the stream had been little stronger you would have been swept away ,think about it !! be responsible and ride safe !!

Bruh...u have so much courage and confident and passionate about ur dream of adventure, hope you'll be gaining millions of followers and subscriber......bs tu apne chutiyee dost se jara bachke rehena

Bro don’t ever go on a ride with this guy again. Lesson learnt, choose your company wisely and do not underestimate the power of flowing water 😇

Your friend instead of trying to take you back to the shore he said " bhai ye bag de de muje" and also "nadi ke sath ja " Think wisely 🙂 Good to see you safe ..

Don't believe Gagan...he is very selfish... please never ride with these types of frnds.

Even in camera it's looks deep, why the heel did u attempted it bro? I would rather take a 20 km longer root before going into this

Really stupid move bro, could have costed you your life, change your friends first, who take their sweet time to remove clothes rather than jumping in to save.

By the way omar ( who helped you) he is from kashmir .

06:05 iss time mereko kitni gaaliya di thi?? 😅

Tumhare dost acha khel gya😅😅, sirf tumhe batata rha yaha se jaao waha se jaao but couldn’t lead by example

Rather than giving instructions your friend should have gone first and checked how much challenging it is.

His friends were taking pictures when he was struggling

Bhai yeh doosre bande ne aapka chutia katwa dia..... you should not have got into that river...

Nai bhai ye baat hame bohut galat lagii ki apke dostt apko bachane naj ayai 🤦 Dostu k liye jaan b deni pdtii hai mere bhai phir pani mai aghar chain bna k jate 3 ek sath koi nai dubta phir b koshish toh krni tii inhu ne toh kooshosh b nai kii

Bhai rone ki halat ho gyi thi tumhari pr koi baat ni bhai Aishi galti se sikh k dobara aishi galti nhi hogi👍

Your biggest mistake ever bro tc done zanskar last month safely #diverspaddy 🙏🙏🙏 don't do like this ever I am a professional diver I know abt water 🌊 🌊 power 😭

This is a shortcut route bypassing the bridge, truckers use it. 7 years ago we also mistakenly took it while returning to Kargil on our bikes. I was able to cross it but my fellow rider couldn't cross it and had his bike dropped in the river. We were also saved by those truckers. Had to load his bike and drive all the way to Kargil. Reached kargil past mid night. It was one crazy day of my mega one month long Himalayan Expedition.

Don't want to say but being a rider after seeing this it's clearly visible that not able to cross then why did u try. Just maje lene the and adventure as you mentioned in video

The golden rule is whenever you cross a river/water bodies always 1st go by foot to check the depth ( using a stick will do much better). Once confirmed the path then only progress with your bike

Such a shame act that other person is still talking about ke " kitne views aaye". It is not necessary that u need to screwed up to learn anything.Rest is upto u.

Ladki muh kyo chupa rahi hai u must know the depth of water and current 🙆🙊😟🤔🤦‍♀️

Kya sirf mujhe hi ye scripted lag raha h kyu k mushkil se ghutno tak ka pani he

the confidence @Gagan Choudhary reflected before crossing over but chose to wait instead for you to do it first speaks volume. Raj, you now know your extreme limits and this will surely help some other time in future. keep riding.

1 like 1 comment n 1 support to banta hai is video par... Is video me gangan ko dekh kar surprise reh gaya me

Long story short, trust the process (highways and paved roads), avoid the shortcuts. Now for years to come, this video will serve as a great reminder as what to not do when in Ladakh. Bike and gadgets can be repaired, grateful to God that you made it through without any physical injuries. Be safe man!

Bai dekhne mai river choti aur kam lagi ti hai par Inka bahaw bhaut speed hoti hai kabi bi risk nahi lena chaye ..

Bhai yaaar kya life ka mast sa experience Mila, dost hamesa saath aate hai. Keep growing brother 👍🏻

Jaan,sambalke,chalo,baki, happy journey, dhanywad

Bhai bohut risk liya jan chali jati yar

Dumbest friend who suggested to cross the river and himself never went for it... Dont trust him

For 1 MILLION VIEWS pls change video title to "How @GaganChoudhury drowned me in Ladakh river crossing ?" and put Gagan's face on the thumbnail + use 3 element thumbnail design. I can foresee explosive channel growth. Great fun to watch ahahahahhaa.. Glad to know you were safe.

Gagan should restrict himself to vehicle reviews.

can't believe it was Gagan who made such a big mistake of going through it..damn

I really do admire your adventures treak. But you should have acted more responsible Before venturing in high tide water you should have stepped down from Bike And investigate the place.

Aapka ye bura time tha jo aane nikal diya ab se aapka ⏲️ next level 👌 hoga Aapka yt channal grow ab karka aap continues video upload karte rehana dear God bless you 🙏

Seriously, what were u thinking when u even tried that. Didnt even realise the sweeping power of flowing water. 😂

Your friend who suggested you to take your bike into the river, isn't he the same person who does car/automobile reviews in RU-vid?

Ye Adventure nhi, Pahad me ise "Pda Lath utha kr uspr baithna kehte hain" lucky you ki truck aa gya 🙏🏻

Dominar being front heavy is not a easy bike for offroads. Have been riding it for 2 years now and i don't feel confident.

Pani me girne k karan , bike k engine ka oil white ho gaya hoga , ab oil change nhi ab bike ka engine hi banvana padega

OMG that was crazy,, ur friends could have save the bike,, but they were just watching,, and the guy was saying,,, leave the bike,, three guys could hv pick the bike up,,, same thing happened with me 10years before,,

should not cross the river like this

One bad decision and lakho ka luksan...sukr he rider ko kuch nehi hu...

Bhagban ka dhanyawad kro ...bhai ...

Your friend should have gone first by his overconfidece talk. Edar se ja aur us pathar se ja.He made you lalluu at last.

Omar vhi jaan god bless you 💗💕💕💓💞💕💗💖💖💗💕💓💞💓💕💕💗

It was genuinely stupid act bro.

It's good to see you Gagan sir

Friend ka galati nahi hai..agar wo single hota . Wo khud pani me first jaata...it's just a miscalculation about river crossing...it's a moment you will be remembered forever 😊

Gagan was too selfish and that could easily be judged the way he forced him to go first. At the end, he’s safe is the only good part in this video. What happened next, if there are any recordings of the same, then do post a video. Else Gagan ko bolna video bana ke de… itna toh kar hi sakta hai

This place not zankar this place is Rangdum

Your friend should have walked behind you for support at first . Change your friend . Please don't go on rides with him ever again.

Nature is teaching a biggest lesson here. Our instinct is always right trust me. But we dont listen to it because its voice is very subtle and low. There has been many incidents where i failed to listen to my instinct has cost me damage. Recently my instinct was trying to stopping me from going on ride but i still went due to rider friend with me (peer pressure) and boom accident happened, got hit on the knee and calves. 7 weeks and still recovering. Lesson NEVER IGNORE THE VOICE OF YOUR INSTINCT.

All thanks to Fresh RU-vid born adventurers, who think 'yeeee, this is cool, apun bhi hero, yeee, adventure, nature and everything is bussiness and joke".

Ladakh zese jage par bhi bina dekhe bike ko dal dena 😱 gajjab ka confidence

What happened afterwards?? Your bike and gadgets??

Guys use dip stick method before passing such terrain - area ka pta chal jata hai - kitna deep hai ya gaddha hai ya nahi. Ekdm desi tarika hi but thodi help jati hai

Nice bhai 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Isse bolte hai Punjabi mai "Bund Panga"😂😂 adventure kro par life ko khatre mai mat dhallo yr 👍🏻

आपने लोकल लोगो से सही जानकारी नही ली,,,ऐसे नाले हमेशा 12 बजे से पहले पा कर लेने चाहिए,,,,भगवान का शुक्र है आपकी जान बच गई,,,,,धन्यवाद् आपका

Any flowing water above 2ft has strong force to topple a bike or to slide a car. Always do a reiki before entering into river crossing.

great effort brother, subscribed and all the very best for your further journey. This is Vivek a Van lifer from India..

Omar Allah ka farishta hai....💞💕💕💞💖💖💓💞💕💗💕💞💓💓💓💓💞💞

Bhai bike daal ne se pehle pedal jaa kar hi chek kar lete

beta Ab tera RU-vid Channel Chal Jayega Samjh............. Aisa Content Kabi Kabi Banta hai..... Jaan Bach gyi wo Bahut Achha Hua............ Lakin es Nuksan ki Bhar payi tera channel Kardega.... 🤞🤞🤞 Dont take tension take it easy........

Dominar is a tourer with 155mm ground clearance....u cannot take it inside rivers with big rocks in it and this kinda flow....it won't be able to move ahead....cb500x might be able to cross but dominar wont

HORRIBLE HORRIBLE advice from your friends. Thats all I can say. You should've used your better judgement instead of listening to your friends overconfidence. If he was so confident ki waha gadda nahi hai to khud pehle jaate... But nahi, he pushed you into it..... I really couldn't care two hoots if he was a 'famous blogger' or some 2take ka chhapri. Adventure karne ke chakkar mein dusro ke baaton mein you could have lost your life. At that altitude, in those remote regions and the freezing water temperatures, hypothermia is a very real thing. Always ride safe, aur ho sake to inke saath adventure kam hi karna. Agle baar u might not be so lucky.

I am 24 years only. and through video I can analise the water is deep and I am not stupid to cross. You being aged and mature people did stupid things. Enjoy views + galiyaan now 😑

Those truck drivers…respect for them 🤩🤩

Adventure is good but not on sake of life.....water crossing are always dangerous...BRO is doing great job in ladakh...then why shortcuts....I recently visited to ladakh..it's dangerous when u make it so

Man life got saved. Thank God. Never seen any video like this. 200Kg Bike washed away like paper.

adventure kro bhai logo pr itna nhi ki preshani jelni pde safer side first go for safe side & Ride 🫡🫡

Never travel with this type of friends, they r not real friends. I hope you understood. Raj was saying several times that there's a deep but his chutiya friends forced him as they thought Raj ko pehle Jane dete hai kuchu accident hoga to uska hoga hum logo ka kya .

Agar tumhare friend ko itna he confidence tha usne pehle kyu ni Cross kia. Ye pagalpanti hai bhai, neeche na dekhne se river ki depth kam ni ho jati. Respect NATURE to stay alive !!

Hi Bro, Nothing to comment on your friend as, I have no idea about your friendship. Coming to water crossing I appreciate u were calm and kept hold of your Dominar for sometime which did not drowned far. I believe you have strong willpower to handle such danger incident. YOU & YOUR DOMINAR DOMINATED THAT WATER CROSSING....Stay safe and have safe rides.....cheers...!!

All I can see is one man's fault and his stupidity. Bro, you shouldn't have listened to him😔

Respect the Nature.. How foolish of you to even think of that.. Ride Safe..

Can not believe. Gagan chaudhary jaise auto expert or samjhdar aadami ke sath hone par bhi aisi situation bani. Thanks for the awareness.

Oh bhai..btw..u r helping other new riders to always know the difference between water crossing and river crossing 🚸👍

This is no joke..you people as influencers have a responsibility to do things in a way that doesn’t harm youngsters with similar adrenaline.. views k chakkar me aisa karna is just not acceptable.

Aise 2 4 dost ho to barbad hone mai jyada time ni lgega😂😂🤣🤣

Total misjudgement! How can u even think of crossing the stream after seeing the flow like this

dost badal lo

Is video ke start wale motivational quote se hume ek cheez seekhne ko milti hai ki roadtrip ko yaadgar banane ke liye jaanleva karname karna zaroori hai taaki marne ke baad ghar wale hume yaad karte rahe aur kahe wah kya kaam karte hue mara hai humara beta/Bhai/pati.

Adventure ke naam pe Chutiyappa hai yea.. Baal Baal Bach Gaye...

BHUT acha brother keep it up and enjoy your day 🔥

His friends thinks himself as bear grills 🐻.... Unnecessary standing on edge and advising this guy to cross the river.... Crazy never get over confident and follow all the instructions.... Hatts off to Gagan 😅😅😅 short cut to swarg hojata...Total loss trip....

Gagan bhaiya to smile krke side ho liye puniya ji ki band baj gyi .ab se me to gagan choudhary se kbhi influence nhi hounga ye to Banda bhot bda peluchand nikla.....
