Most Dangerous Ways To School - Philippines.

The children from Madibago in the southern Philippines have one of the most spectacular and dangerous ways to school in the world. Some walk alone through the jungle for hours, others risk their lives, in order to make it past a steep face of rock and boulders, overgrown with moss and tree roots.

On the peninsula Zamboanga del Norte in the southern Philippines, the thinly populated coastal strip gives way to sharply rising mountains. Eleven-year-old Aible lives close to the sea, but her school is located in the heart of the mountains. A ride on a motorbike taxi costs only one US-Dollar, but Aible’s family simply doesn’t have the money, like most of the families here. So for decades, children from Madibago have been taking the shortcut through the jungle. They call it Pam-Pang: A gigantic wall that the children must climb every single day – in the hopes of a better future. In some places its slope is 90 degrees. Many people have fallen here. Some have critically injured themselves while trying to climb Pam-Pang.

The weather can change suddenly in the Philippines. Thanks to the high humidity, short, heavy rain showers tend to be the rule – even in the dry season. And for Aible this means even greater danger on her way to and from school. The roots, the rocks, the soil – all becomes even more slippery than usual. But that doesn’t keep the children from chasing their dreams.

ATTENTION to all friends, subscribers and generally awesome followers of our channels:

Fans of the MOST DANGEROUS WAYS TO SCHOOL Series have been asking for a long time how they can donate to help these kids - directly. Well, now, finally, we've found a way:
With the assistance of some awesome people who specialize in bringing aid directly to the Nepal area, we’ve set up a GoFundMe for the school kids in Nepal.
Obviously, the kids in the documentary are already grown up and making their way in the world but there are thousands following in their footsteps - all with dreams of making a better life for themselves and their families. Now we are able to help them directly.

We can't do it without you.

I hope and pray that these families are being paid for sharing their stories and not exploited for the purpose of entertainment. They deserve to be compensated for allowing us all into their lives 🙌🏽

I'm in tears while watching this documentary, it reminds me of my grade school days back in 1995, my family lived in the jungle of southern side of mindanao Philippines. me and my 1 younger walk 2 and half hours every day to go to school and crossed the river 7 times. thank God through perseverance and determination I was able to finish my study and achieve my dreams.

[donnamoreno]

These documentaries should be shown in every school to make children realize how lucky and blessed they are to have an easy and comfortable life. I salute these children. They deserve everything 🥺

I went to the phillipines in 2020 and was amazed how the kids were so well mannered and thankful for the little things they have in life. I went there with my 15 year old son and it changed us both, and made us more grateful for the easy life we have in the West.

I am from the Philippines. I used to walk from the mountain where our house was located to downtown city, sometimes barefooted. I only washed my feet full of mud on the river, wiped my wet feet using a piece of cloth from unused clothes, and I also put my socks and shoes on the river. Some well-privileged kids along with their parents would pass me by on the bridge and would always give me a disgusted look, or sometimes would bully me that a mountain girl like me would get nowhere in life and will just end up being poor. It was my daily routine from to school since I was a kindergarten until I graduated in 2019 in a prestigious state university as a Cum Laude. And thanks to those bullies who underestimated me for making me the best version of myself that I couldn't ever imagine.

I'm American Filipino born and raised here in the USA I'm blessed to have the opportunity to do certain things my parents where born in the Philippines they used to tell me stories how they went to school like these kids I used to joke around with my parents about there stories until one day I visited the Philippines I got to experience the long walk my parents used to walk in the jungle through a river and dirt roads just to get a education. I don't make fun of my parents stories anymore I just enjoy and imagine...love the video it's educational...

[ronramos]

I’ve been hooked and motivated by these documentaries “the most dangerous ways to school”.

[ShadowFungus]

This is why most of our parents and grandparents say “back in our day, we used to walk miles, hike, cross rivers just to get to school” 🙏🏼 respect 🇵🇭

[oxleellego]

I was like him before i had to walk hours just to get to the school and now im an IT technician, Thank God I can help help family now and others in need.

[elangbam]

It breaks my heart to see Ryan just eat rice for dinner and nothing else. Wish the children there prosperity and success

I’m from the Philippines and lived most of my childhood there before moving to the United States and this really hits home for me because I used to be one of these children who had to take a risky path in order to get to school everyday. This also makes me realize how fortunate I am to be where I am right now. I want to thank my mother for all of her sacrifices and hard work and I genuinely hope that situations will be better for these children. I love the Philippines and my fellow Filipinos so much and my heart breaks for them. ❤️ To the documentary makers, please let us donate or reach out to these families.

Let's take a moment to appreciate how beautiful of a country Philippines is.

[victorolano]

Way back 1998 - 1999, I'll used to walk 12kilometers per day (24km back and forth) just to get an education. God is so good that I become a working student (school janitor) until I finish my course. Sacrifice is the key to success.

[michaelmcknight]

Absolutely remarkable the way these children get to school each day under such difficult circumstances. I think the kids in the west should watch this video to appreciate how lucky they are.

Philippines is one country I love from my heart. Love to all from India

[sm]

Makes me ashamed how much easier life is for some of us, and yet we thought we had it so difficult. These hard working people and their children are amazing.

Filipinos are great people, happy and friendly even if they are poor
