India, the Himalayas Acrobats | Deadliest Journeys

The truck drivers who supply the lost cities of the Himalayas play the tightrope walkers on passes at 4000 meters altitude; they graze parishes and precipices flat out on roads barely wider than their engines.

Directors: Frédéric Elhorga, Antonin Marcel

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.

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

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.

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 .

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.

"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.

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.

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.

.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!

[shutthedoor]

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.

[vialruksar]

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 😇.

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.

[ashraymanohar]

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.

[sergiomacri]

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.

[agnon]

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.

[balwantsinghthakur]

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.
