Uganda's Most Dangerous Ghetto 🇺🇬 

Great day filming with you mate 😊

well wishes to Bald and his malaria recovery

Drinking through reed straws like that is actually one of the oldest recorded methods of drinking alcohol. The sumerians used the same method over 5000 years ago. The purpose of the straws is that the undrinkable waste material floats to the top, while the alcoholic liquid stays at the bottom in extremely unfiltered beer and wine. Fascinating to see ancient practices like that live on even today.

Ben, you’re genuinely open minded and see all people as they should be seen… you were raised well mate! Keep up the great work showing all people just want peace and security in life!

Tired, not feeling well… and there it is. My favorite guy on YT! Thanks mate for a new adventure!

Ben you’re a bloody legend

Just seen bald coming out of a gay bar in Brighton with some 'friends', he didn't look ill to me.

Cool people, thanks for sharing your experience!🤩 Mr. Bald & _Not Bankrupt_ ditching on business class...again. I'm starting to see a trend here. 😅

You are a true traveler, Ben. I can’t do 10% of what you do most of the time. Hats off to you and btw, this vid is way too short….drop another soon please, safe travel.

Hello Ben thanks for another adventure 🙌👋

That was quality... Joel seemed sound and you really experienced a few things lol... Bald just wanted to go home I bet, I hope he did tell you before Pissing off... Great vlog Benjamin 👍👍

"Admin fee" is a great euphemism for a bribe. In South Africa we call it "cool drink".

Always enjoy your videos Ben and I like it when you team up with Bald. You have very different approaches but it works. I never feel like you’re holding anything back when you talk about your experiences. Keep going and get Kat back!!

7:11 in the morning here.. coffee with ben is awesome 😊

One of my favorite traveler .. you inspire me

And another great video..😊

Thanks for coming to Uganda we welcome you again

Joel is such a legend! Loved the guy the moment he turned up. I wish you'd travel up and down the whole continent for a year.

I visited Uganda a few times in 1985 and 1986, just after the civil war under Milton Obote's regime had ended and Museveni had taken power. Virtually the only thing you could buy in Kampala market at that time were shampoos and skin lightening creams that the big pharmaceutical companies had dumped in the country. It was a truly sobering expeience. One time I travelled from Entebbe by dugout canoe on Lake Victoria to visit Makusa Island, where Idi Amin used to have a villa. The building was in ruins and only a few fishermen lived on the island, but the most remarkable feature was that every bush and tree was covered in a white, almost transparent film, like a muslin cloth. It turned out they were spider's webs. Millions of them. That and the amazing large trees outside the Kampala Sheraton which lost all their leaves as dusk approached, were my two most vivid memories of the country. The "leaves" were bats flying off to eat their breakfast after sleeping all day.

Enjoyed this one mate

Ben has evolved now.. great solo videos ! may be bald is nostaligic about the ruskis

The entire country looked like a ghetto until you got to where the locals call it a ‘ghetto’. That porridge drink looked like something you’d make someone drink at gun point.

🎉 Ben 🎉 I love the way you make yourself known by greeting everyone when you walk in a bar or outbuilding. "Mate" "You OK?" Any greeting works really to break the ice. Communication is the key and you unlock the doors dude. #Respect 👍 Oh by the way, I lived in Nigeria for a year when I was about 8 years old... I still live off the stories I tell my mates, gruesome, funny and dangerous but I wouldn't change it for a minute

One thing I learned from your vlogs is that Mr Bald cannot be trusted

Always rooting for the PEARL -- feel at home mate 🔥🔥

Enjoyed the tour. Watching from the Philippines.

my guy watching this with a beer on me holidays.Happy days thanks for the great videos mate

Just started watching you Ben. You really are amazing and full of enthusiasm and energy

If you want to meet the friendliest and most accommodating folks in Africa, visit Kenya. Just spent two weeks there and was amazed by just how joyful and pleasant everyone was there. Lots to see and do outside of Nairobi.

fairplay Ben.. keep making great content and showing the 'real' world. props and thanks bud

I love how you and Bald are able to dip out on each other in a moments notice and there is no drama because of it. That is the kind of traveling partner I want. You guys just do what you need to do. I hope Bald feels better. ...or maybe he just wanted some McDonalds, who knows.

You didn't tip that fella..Jack?..he really helped you out. Not 'feeling' that. Do love your much improved channel.👍

Always happy to see you on your travels, Ben!

BTW there is a sieve at the bottom of those wooden straws...the sorghum and millet sediment stays in the pot while they keep adding hot water.

I can't believe you got on that bus and then that replacement bus and out of there so quickly. Must be a record! These videos bring back many fond memories of my solo travels there. Love Nile Special!

Ben, seriously, your videos just get better and better. Thanks for sharing!

This is an awesome ghetto, very happy to welcome you for some Schnapps!!

Wonderful video yet again. Thanks 👍🎉❤ Going to Uganda in a few days.

20:41 " American soldiers Iraq" 😭

Good stuff Ben You're a brave man👍

great video Ben

Top stuff as always!!!

I was in Maspalomas, Gran Canaria, during the Euros final. Brilliant atmosphere. Love from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Thanks for this. My dream of spending time in a ghetto in Uganda and drinking the local hooch has now been removed from my things to do before I die list.

I always admire your bravery Ben, great video!

10 hour bus is no joke. Back to the Pearl of Africa!!

Found you through bald a while back, starting to like your content better, you seem more genuine and balds a quitter lmao. I’m onto the better Ben

Oh man you’re brave drinking that!

Thanks for all your fantastic video's, alone and with mr. bald. I use your travels as reverse advise : I avoid all the places you visit. Need the aircon, the malls, the car, the hotels and the western food, to be totally honest.

Omg that concoction and the long straws!!! Giving bruce parry a good run there Ben !!!😲👏

Ben, I am not a youtuber myself, but I work in factories and we all have stations that they put us in....some are more permanent, but some are just for a few days, and in those stations, there are different people working. I definitely have my favorite people that I prefer to be partnered with for the day and sometimes I get people who I dont much care for. Bald might be gone for now, but he will be back. Just like at my work, take some pleasure in the fact that you occasionally get someone to work with that is good to you, good for you and cares about you. That is a treasure. At the same time, your videos are great on their own without Bald. Bald is like the cherry on top, but its not what makes the rest so great. Absence makes the heart grow fonder, right?

I like the adventures. Interacting with the local people is so cool

needed decent vid to watch , thanks man

Watching you from Accra Ghana keep up the good work blessed

Snakey move by Mr Bald, could have told Ben at the time so he could determine whether to go back with him.

You should visit Northern Uganda, great place

Big up to you always everbless family TV RU-vid channel supporting from Jamaica

That's the second time Bald has bailed out on you. I seem to remember he did the same when you travelled with him to the Shetlands. Perhaps his monicker should be Bald and Morally Bankrupt 😂😂😂

Glad you are continuing your African adventures. Dr. Livingstone I presume?

You definitely hit them tough places no one else will visit...crazy dude

Ben ur doing us proud😁

Ben's life expectancy was just cut in half.

So glad you went back to Uganda ben Nice people..One love Uganda 🇺🇬 🇬🇧 ❤

Balls of steel my friend...balls of steel...

Excellent show

Masaka, makasa😂.. Anyway thanks for loving the pearl❤

Ben, Thank you for taking us to people, cultures and places that we would probably never visit or know about, as media generally sanitizes and only report through the politically correct lenses. I appreciate your REAL connections and bridges of humanity.😊

Stay safe out there Ben there is a growing outbreak of mpox in Rwanda, Uganda, the Drc and Burundi so watch yourself fella.

That booze looks like the crap found at bottom of a port-o-let

Can't believe you drank that and survived.

Welcome Back to Uganda

Love that your patriotic about your cpuntry and watching them play from Uganda

Mr. Bald feels a bit sweaty and leaves the country and here you are drinking sewer water to spite him. Wilding!

Im american and served in Iraq and can confirm Ugandans were apart of the contracted security forces, gate gaurds etc.. keep up the great the great work Ben!

Thank you for going to Africa for us.

Bald is someone you definitely cannot trust he's out for himself

Ben risks loose stools for my entertainment. Respect, mate.

💪 all the best brother keep up the great work this one will be excellent

Ben you are a hero, a legend we love to see you stick money in the poor.

I once saw an old documentary, while a lot of people hated colonialism, there were some remembering the days when they worked on the railroad, there was structure. Anyway, they have it hard, there is often conflict, but I believe they will find their way just as any other country does. Who knows, just like that one book by a German writer predicted, in the future they might have everything is looking for. And congratulations on taking such an educational and difficult trip.

As a Ugandan, that man (the soldier) was lying to you. 🤣🤣

That local brew looked like sewage.

Drinking through those straws did not look very sanitary. I could not have done that. Great vid.

🙂❤👍Another Awesome Adventure Thank You Ben Safe Travels🙃 That sucks to hear Mr Bald is sick with Malaria get well soon Mr Bald 🙂❤👍

Kudos to you Ben, I would never have the balls to go there.

Christie did a good job of fishing all the solids out of that sewage.

Excellent !

That “American soldier” hasn’t even seen action in COD! 😅

Having 2 5 hours bus rides instead of single 10 hours long makes perfect sense. I wish I had this option instead of single 10 hours flight

lmao first convo after the finals is "spain slaughtered you"

Benjamin drinking marwa is the mvp

We welcome you to Zimbabwe and your family and friends

Bald does yet another runner, abandoning Backpacker Ben 😅 Why am I not surprised 😆

Wow, that first bus is MURDER on earphones. Sounds like it's driving on a flat.

21:45 I could smell it from here, wonderful!

The bribe was almost as much as that bar of chocolate and water 😂 I loved Rwanda each to their own I suppose. Each to their own , not sure where you are now but safe travels once again 😊

Did you know the Busia Tororo road at some point straddles inside Kenya and back to Uganda between Buteba and Salama trading centres? You get to pass into Kenya and back to Uganda totally legally with no passport control checks

That man did not go to Iraq that was alcohol giving him those ideas.

Sippin from a Winnie the Pooh level honey jar 🤣 hella respect, if only they could fill it with 4loko. Much love to Joel and the humble folk.
