World's Most Dangerous Roads: Deadliest Journeys in Kazakhstan 2016
Deadliest Roads - Ethiopia: • Deadliest Roads | Ethi...
In Kazakhstan, a country in Central Asia located between China and Russia, everything is tough: the climate, the vast steppes dotted with oil wells, even the character of the inhabitants, descendants of the Mongols and Genghis Khan who have adapted to withstand all of nature’s challenges. Filmed at the backend of winter, this film takes us into the centre of a snowstorm. Thousands of travellers find themselves caught in an enormous traffic jam, the least fortunate of whom are stuck in the mud, victims of a sudden thaw. We meet farmers and camel breeders who rely on hostile land. The Aral Sea, now completely dried out due to the overexploitation of it’s water during the Soviet period, has given place to a dessert made up of sand, salt, and dust that’s toxic to the inhabitants. On this truly extreme journey we are accompanied by endearing people who never let their struggles crush their spirit or dignity.

Kazakhstan is a country overflowing with culture and joy and music, cuisine, art, world heritage sites, multi lingual diversity. But this episode of Deadliest Roads is showing the hardships this vast expanse of country and the people living there face; the downside of what happens when nobody cares about those who tend the land, live off the land, are at one with nature, and what happens to them when all that is taken away - exploited by ruthless exploiters and cruel chains of events (and the here unnamed and seemingly invisible entities who set that chain reaction of devastation into motion) Some facts that aren’t that fun. But we - as consumers - need to know what happens in communities even when they’re far away. Whether you realize it or not, we do influence what can or can’t happen. Because I’m pretty sure the cotton jeans you’re wearing or I’m wearing, come from cotton farmed in an area that probably isn’t treating its workers or the land well. Supply/Demand. If we demand fair trade, organic farming, are willing to pay higher prices and just buy less, our behavior as consumers can help change the lives of people. Not overnight. But we do have the power to change things. Remember that. For more reading on Kazakhstan, head over to our COMMUNITY Tab on KZhead.
Keep them coming .
You need to get more ads on here, one every 4 minutes isn't enough, one every 30 seconds is what people want.
What did you upload last Sunday?
I'm sorry but I disagree with that old farmer. Stalin was a mass murderer and the old farmer has a bunch of junk and trash that's thrown about without disregard to order. Trashy ... Very Trashy Did stalin teach him that? But thank you for the vids They're always very interesting.
Conditions can’t be as bad as what is shown , don’t they have snow plows ?
I sometimes asked myself how do you managed to bring all this kinds of documentary, l really respect your work thanks for your hard work
We have good relationships and contacts to productions companies and distributors - we license the rights to show these docs. This helps them finance future trips and we get to show you awesome docs. That’s basically in a nutshell how it works.
Yes, they do an amazing job. Must be hard on them to get the footage. I hope they make enough money for bringing us these amazing documentaries
@@FreeDocumentary YOU GUYS FUQIN ROCK!!!
@The Random Guys {LarY} french TV needs extra money too 😀
Thanks for all the documentaries showing us the different parts of the world and what people have to go through. These documentaries have kept us happy during the lockdown. My Sundays are spent waiting for the new episodes. To the amazing team... You have my respect and appreciation.
"My truck isnt refrigerated and I'm carrying perishable cakes" I dont think you have anything to worry about, son.
😂😂
😂
Its code for human cargo
Since I enjoyed my own company, I rarely attend get-togethers. During weekends or after work, I find myself sitting in front of my laptop while watching documentaries and this Channel is definitely my first choice then DW and NatGeo.
same here brother,nice to find some1 as me,i just go to some family get togethers otherwise i watch documentaries
Since COVID-19 same here just only love my girl and my cat
Time to get a hobby!
How depressing
@@ClimberinChrist more depressing was that day when you shaved my legs because you lost a bet,do you rmeber that
Mad respect for the people of Kazakhstan! They help each other and that's rare here in the states!
Utmost respect for the Kazak people. It is increadible how they build their lives in such environment and how they are recovering the Aral sea.
Agree!
@@Aspandala I am glad that your people survived as well as your culture. I was already once in Uzbekistan and met some Kazakhs at a trade fair and I wish sincerely that Central Asian nations can get more attention for trade and partnerships. The people, the food, the land and the local culture are really wonderful.
interesting fact: at the bottom of the Aral Sea they found a temple and something similar to Atlantis
@user-yl2to9nb8x How is it similar? Have you been to Atlantis?
@@user-yl2to9nb8x Nobody needs another Atlanta
These documentaries remind me that life is not an easy road.
I see what you did there...
Lol Caribbean ?
It depends on whether you're driving the right vehicle for it
Well said
Buju Banton sang it!! It’s not an easy road!! 😂😂😂😂😂 😉
This series is like a massive advertisement for the durability of Toyotas
When getting back isn’t a luxury thing but rather a life or death thing; people take a Toyotan Land Cruiser or Hilux
Hows my 3vze

@@trp2413 is rather the niva super basic and easy to repair
@@lukem9962 niva breaks down every other mile in these conditions. It's a russian built garbage, stop overblowing it.
This film reminded me about my past work. In 1990s I spent in Kazakhstan almost 10 years as a geologist and drove these “adventures” roads, roads of life and death all year around. Glad I managed to be alive.
A dependable vehicle is essential for material or personal transportation. No ( AAA ) road side assistance here.
I have ridden some long roads of Kazakhstan on adventure motorcycle travels in the past years, and I must say that Kazakh people are amongst the most hospitable and friendliest ever met. I love KZ! Greetings from Italy.
🇰🇿❤️
Cool! You should make videos about riding in Kazakhstan. They'll get millions of views and you'll get rich :)
Lo felicito no es facil andar en Kazakhstan en moto
i just love this guy "you can't give up on your destiny"
Life is hard you should be tough to deal with it. Much respect to all of you my Kazakh brothers. From Pakistan

'Honorable citizen' is the most soviet sounding award ever.
Honorable comrades?
*Red Star Award For the People's Union Of Communal Sacrifice for the Greater Shared Good*
Ver nice
It used to be rewarded for those who showed extraordinary dedication. Its still common in countries like DPRK and Cuba today. In the western Capitalist systems you only receive a small raise, in Socialism you receive awards and praise. You tell me which one is better, more than 52% of all former Soviet people want return of Socialism.
Trumpski's 'Medal of Freedom' has a subversively proletarian tone to it.
These doc's should be nominated for Oscars!!!
You should first give Oscars to the truck drivers then the Doc..
I will never complain about slow winter snow traffic again! Wow!
😂
😁
Bless the makers of the deadly roads series. These are all shot so well
I went from Nur-Sultan to just a couple hours south of Omsk by car and it was unforgettable. Massive respect to people living in Kazakhstan!
Would you like to share your experience a little bit?
@@DESIBOY-fe7nm The roads were world class until about 30 to 45 minutes outside of Nur-Sultan then they were very rough at times where it was actually better to drive off-road. The towns appeared periodically and definitely were fairly typical of the post-Soviet conditions. The people were resilient and intelligent (also typical of post-Soviet conditions).
@@jasonwinters3224 wow.!! If I get a chance I would like to travel there in rural parts of Kazakhstan. 👍
credits to the cameraman....awesome!
good job
realyy....
Absolutely
I've worked around a number of cameramen and they are either fearless or crazy!!
@@jameshickok2349 did cameramens getting highly pay for filming something like this?
Honestly, thank you guys for bringing to us such informative documentaries! As a person who loves documentaries more than movies, it's indeed a treat to my senses....! Salute to the production team, crew members and everyone who is involved in making such amazing documentaries! You are adding more information to the world wide digital library, for our next generations! Thank you!

Same here. I like it first then watch it.
Bro Pls click like after more than 2 sec of watching the video. Because according to KZhead algorithm u will be considered a bot if u like the video before watching the video ir immediately before few secs. And your view will not be counted. I m not an expert bt do know a bit on this. The reason is this kind of channel needs views n our support.

yes what is the song on 44:47 please?
@@kimahauhulh3582 It is local Kazakh song, more likely not well known
@@Firsachi in English, please
You're making a kind of global encyclopedia of breaking through most harsh roads! That's an outstanding work that cannot be overestimated! Thanks for these films as entertainment, cultures documenting and usefulness for future road travellers.
I'm disappointed that the front loader operator couldn't get himself out of that ditch. It's almost as if he didn't know he could use the bucket to move the vehicle around....
I was thinking the same thing and tires chains for ice every body should have some chain !
@@Kebekwoodcraft7375 i thought this exactly. 90% of the ppl stuck would’ve been able to continue if they had chains
he was probably just hired to drive it from one place to another. he may not be an operator.
They don’t have chains there. All chain is used to keep kids In their sweat shops
@@ClimberinChrist you're confusing this country with something else.
More people need to see these great documentaries, here in the USA we take so much for granted. Thank you for sharing what it's like elsewhere on this planet. The great people of Kazakhstan look like a tough bunch!
They are. They really are.
i will never complain anymore while on roadtrip
I thought the same.
Agreed. A drive from the North Eastern states to Florida doesn't seem that bad for people anymore lol
The Real Shocker in this documentary is a Toyota Land Cruiser actually stopped running. I didn't think that was possible.
Toyota's suck.

After watching this, I have decided to go and see Kazakhstan and its wonderful Culture, Sam from India
I'm not the only one who's so much waiting Deadliest Road contents. I don't know why, but seeing documentaries about how many extreme road around the world open my mind, many occurance and conditions so hard happened and we still complain about everything. Hopefully everyone blessed and God strengths their shoulder. Also for the governments to find the best best way in solving transportation and road matters for better life.
I myself lived in Northern Kazakhstan and there are always days when the storm is extremely hard and no matter how much money you invested in infrastructure - there are hundreds of Km to clean from the snow, it definitely takes day or two and that episode was filmed at such time. Other 350-360 days roads are clean and tidy. You should understand that to make the documentary more attractive they overemphasize Shock content, whereas it happens everywhere in the world, even in Canada, Europe or USA.
OK, so they are actually all fine - that's good. I was just wondering how they could live in such a condition during winter but now I know that that condition exists only about 10 days a year.
@@flyingriders631 yeah, superextreme conditions are usually 2x5 days a year when enormous snowstorm makes it impossible to ride on the roads. But still temperature there is below -25 for three months and light snowfalls happen quite often which does not make life easier XD. In the context of this video, the difference between super extreme and light winter is the ability to use roads
@@y3rzhan I live in Canada and the ice roads are very tough. The ice roads exist only for a few months in winter when the temperature is below -20°C. Parts of the ice roads are built on swamps, rivers and lakes so when the temperature rises, the ice roads disappear. The drivers on those ice roads have to deal not only with the cold but also with snow storms.
@@flyingriders631 I feel you bro ^^~
I remember visiting Oregon once to see the snow. Many cars and trucks got stuck. It was only 5 inches of snow. It was funny. If you documented all the cars being stuck, it would be the same as this. Because it is only that bad 1 week of the year. The cars just had to wait 3 to 5 hours for help to arrive. Having hired help instead of doing it themselves.
respect to the film crew, these guys go in some crazy places to give us these documentaries
When all three vehicles got stuck in the mud is just comedy gold. 😂
I bet they were asked to show how to get stuck
and all three trucks are on the same video game too
Truck drivers are the real heroes of your documentary . How they spent their life? Its really challenging job on these kind of roads.
That job is challenging even on normal asphalt roads, but in this conditions that's not only challenging, that's dangerous af! U can easly end up your career frozen to death!
Literally Literally i wait every Sunday for documentaries from Free documentaries. You are awesome love from India .
I'm with you... I love this series.
Love this show and the most dangerous ways to school. AWESOME
Just wash your hand indian

More people need to see how tough their journey is. Too many people with easy lives feeling sorry for themselves because they have nothing to challenge them.
"Too many people with easy lives feeling sorry for themselves because they have nothing to challenge them." do you have actual proof of this, or just speculation? I think a lot of people have life challenges everyday that you know nothing about.
@@tomsonfire3740 don't need proof just look at western society
@@Vampybattie Nope, prove it.
Prozak will help
The series are simply marvelous! When I watched the deadliest roads in Bolivia, I was hooked and have been enjoying the whole series now. Kudos to the camera crew and producers! My favorite was of the 1970s 80s Great Railway Journeys of the World produced by the BBC. Wish they reproduced them in HD with a digital soundtrack.
18:28 "Do you think this is a normal life?" Damn that hit hard

Hii ni ukweli,... good documentary though
Well it depends on season and region
this should make us appreciate our good weather
I won't complain again about long lines at Walmart check-outs.
This is a small part of Kazakhstan.
One of the best documentaries I`ve ever watched, and I watched quite a lot. Kudos !
I can't imagine to having this kind of journey .. big respect for those people who lived there and the most important is to the people who filming this documentary .. ice , mud , desert wooooww what an unpredictable weather 🤦🏻♀️
Amazing how people learn to live with their shortages. Kazaks are full of life amidst the harsh conditions of the country. Watching from Nairobi, Kenya
thanks!
Makes me proud as a Dutchman to see those DAF trucks driving on such harsh terrain. DAF's are beasts
😁
DAF truck are crying on such type of roads)
You are right comrad
I really like these documentaries,how you translate them ensuring that we understand every content despite it being filmed from people and places we are not known to ❤❤.salute to you
Love and respect for the drivers, Kazakhstan and team Free Documentary. Keep the good work going.
People look very natural, real, kind and open. I'm started to respect them all from the first second of this video. Nice documentary!
30:56 He didn't say "we are on Mars". He said "it is middle of March" (Середина марта)
It's basically white mars in there
Yeah the translation was wrong (◍•ᴗ•◍)
So what it is mars
I found that funny myself, since Mars is hot and sandy.
Temperatures on Mars average about -81 degrees F. However, temperature's range from around -220 degrees F. in the wintertime at the poles, to +70 degrees F.
Just wanted to say thank you for an exhilarating journey. You guyz are amazing! Camera work is splendid. Keep it up.
Great sound track BRAVO to the all involved in making this documentary.
I am frozen simply by watching! Conditions are terrible, but the ppl survive. Kudos to them.
absolute masterpiece... great team work to explore such regions.
Thank you and I absolutely agree. What these crews bring back on material is amazing.
@@FreeDocumentary great job! But the film is shoooort!
First class journalism. Your documentaries are very informative and enjoyable.
Thanks for enriching my understanding of the world
Amazing to see how people help each other!
love from indonesia to kazakstan...
Heck of a trip.Thanks for letting us come along.
This channel has become a weekly thing for me...I don’t watch a lot of tv and in an era of binge watching everything on Hulu, Netflix and various other streaming services, it’s pretty cool to have something I can tune into every week. Much love from Memphis, Tennessee.
to all Muslims in Europe and England Salamualeikum from Kazakhstan we wish your dreams to come true with you Allah and Kazakhs
A documentary film about the roads of Kazakstan was shot very well. But the director forgot to tell how, in winter, low-quality Kazakh diesel fuel freezes and turns into jelly, and the drivers heat up frozen tanks, engines and pipes with frozen fuel for many hours. Previously, people did not even die freezing along with the car. Thanks to the officials of Kazakstan for turning such a rich country into a beggar!
Kazakhstan, greatest country in the world All other countries are run by little girls
WOW! I had no clue about the harsh weather and poor roads conditions in Kazakhstan. So much needs to be done.
Big respect to Kazach people ❤️ and Free Documentary channel team
Thank you for the great Journey across the world. Greeting from Indonesia
same
So glad I found this amazing channel, this series does itself a disservice by claiming to be about roads when it is so much more. It is the sort of people.
No doubt the team works so hard to get such rough roads series. Kudos to their efforts, dedication, persistence & devotion to their work. Keep it up🙏
I wait for the whole week, to see documentries like this every week. Keep it up guus 💯
I get more excited when I see new episodes of Deadliest Journeys than I do I believe from any other KZhead channel
Start travelling yourself.
@@nealbeard1 ive traveled so much im happy just to be home
I'll never complain again. Hats off to the people who live/thrive in Kazakhstan!
i am glad i subscribed to this channel.not only i enjoy it.I also get the chance of seeing places and their daily life without leaving my room much respect from the philippines to the people behind this documentaries😊
Give and take i have watched at least ninety-nine percent of these documentaries and this is the first time I actually thought it was too short. A Part 2 will be lovely. FD documentary my favorite place. Thanks for the wonderful job as usual
i constantly check this episode,. thank you for showing us the world

I’m from Kazakstan! 🇰🇿 So glad that I’ve subscribed your channel a while ago - observed all roads all over the world and was wondering about roads in our country, where temperature varies from -50 to +50C in fact! Recently roads are getting better - new constructed - old ones repaired, but around 10-15 years ago all countries on your channel are just beginners looking pale in comparison 😅✌️
what is the name of the song at 44:47? :)

Been bing watching these documentaries. They're so enthralling haha I've watched about 7 episodes so far. Good stuff
Thank you for showing freezing kazakhstan journey and muddy roads
How can anyone dislike this video?? I LOVE this documentary!!! I look forward to the new one's all the time!!! It's so AMAZING to watch how other people have to live around the world an no matter the conditions they ALWAYS seem happy. An yet we live in America a beautiful country an don't have to deal with these thing's an we are falling apart these day's an people are not happy. It could always be worse people wake up!!!
massive respect to those who make the paved roads in these places
I’ll never complain about a pot hole on my local asphalted road ever again after watching these docos.
Wow just when I thought that I've seen it all in Deadliest Roads, especially after all the hardcore African ones, this one is truly epic in its depicton of man/machine vs nature! Great stuff, simply one of the best videos on YT ever. Keep up the great work, I've learnt so much of the world and human struggle from every single Deadliest Roads episode.
Thank you so much! I have to say this episode is in our top 10 which we’ll post in the coming week.
I have been watching the Deadliest Roads documentaries, too, and these roads in Kazakhstan are the worst of all of them, IMO.
I was thinking, "Good Lord, this is worse than the Pakistani episode!"
@@tdsims1963 And this is considered normal...
Thanks FD I get to see the other side of the world and understand that we are not living in a parallel universe where people tends to only value what’s around them and doesn’t seem to care about the other life aspects. So much to learn and see from your future updates. More Power!
This is madness !!!! The Kazakh s are really great people .... Warm and friendly and immensely resourceful.... Huge respect !!!!
omg now i feel so grateful live here.
How anyone can make a documentary in those conditions is beyond me. I commend your team! Amazing!
Thanks a lot Free Documentary for high quality documentaries.
Wonderful people. Here in Crimea we have Tatar friends that came from Kazakhstan....they would die for us .... And we for them. Respect to the great Soviet engineers also, who built stuff to last decades ....
The narrator for this show is just great
the best episode of Deadliest Roads
I have to agree it belongs to my top two. The second being on the Wakhan Corridor but this episode made my top ten 2020 list for sure. It’s very powerful and I think important to see. Thanks for stopping by 🙏
