Mauritania, the Conveyors of the Desert | Deadliest Journeys

In Mauritania, the Harmattan blows, a dry, dusty wind that sweeps across the desert regions until it bury crops and villages; Sid Ahmed and Mohamed supply these landlocked areas; they are among the only ones to venture there.

Directors: Guillaume Lhotellier, Frédéric Elhorga

ONE of the most touching documentaries I've ever watched! After watching this documentary I realized how much we take things for granted and how much we don't appreciate the life that we have! My prayer is that one day God blesses me and I'll be able to travel to that desert and help whenever I can 😭😭😭😭

Thanks for the inventors of the internet and YouTube for making the world so small.

Teenagers all over the Western World need to see these documentaries so that they can understand just how good or bad their actual realities are. It would make them better human beings.

Y'all don't realize how crucial the Deadliest Journey's series is to my survival as a human. Turn the lights down, heat up the dab up, and admire the human innovation to overcome all these obstacles they deal with day to day.

This series is just so eye opening to how things really are in the world.

I don't think anyone watching this video would not come to have a greater appreciation of the life which they have been blessed with. I simply can't imagine how it is that these people continue to live in good faith that at some point in the future there life will change for the better. Awsome production. We have it good, no matter what.

I am one of the last stamp collectors left I believe. These documentaries replaces the knowledge you used to get by researching the countries whose stamps you collect. I am trying to get a complete set of Tunisia. I love that part of Africa. I worked in Nigeria and I can vouch that people have a misconception about most other people in the world. One cannot overestimate the value of these documentaries in fostering understanding and tolerance.

Thank you so much. Life changing. I respect these people despite such harsh conditions, still earning a living. For example; my wife is complaining about living in hell, being married to me. Yet as pensioner 65, we are rich beyond measure. My career was uninterrupted for 45 years. I built all our houses (alone after hours, took me ~40 years). She is a qualified teacher, yet could never keep a job. Always spent her pension monies on furniture. Today we have no debt. Three cars, purchased cash (two which I registered in her name). Yet all the petrol, insurance, maintenance I'm taking care of. Not boasting but we have everything in abundance, including food and savings. Solar power. We are living in a huge double story house with 5 bedrooms as well as two extra properties being rented out. We are Christians, donating lots to the poor, yet my wife insists that she manages my pensioen money. Her lifestyle is her weekly pedicure, manicure and hairdressing visits and ladies tea parties. Always surrounding her with our rich ( but wonderful) friends, she hardly ever wash dishes or make the bed etc etc. (because of fear damaging her nails). She has a (wonderful) black lady to do house cleaning once a week. Herself totally lazy. Spoilt rotten comes to mind. I can't help to wonder about Jesus' teachings: "Those who were last shall be first". "Blessed are the poor, blessed are the meek, blessed are the sad for they shall inherit the Kingdom of God" Love from Africa.

That tea is called Attaya, which is widely drunk in Gambia and Senegal as well. It can be drunk anytime of day or night. It is normally brewed 3 times and the first brew is always bitter. 3 brew is much sweeter.

I really enjoy and learn different things by just watching these deadliest road documentaries. It depicts the struggles of different people around the globe. Thank you for posting the Mauritania one. I have always been fascinated by this beloved country. Much love from Somalia.

Those shown in the documentary are heroes. May God bless them all.

i traveled North from the Congo to Cameroon, Chad, Niger, Mali, Senegal then into Mauritania on an overland expedition back in 1998, we followed the coast up through Western Sahara into Morocco. The desert was as harsh then as it is now by all appearances, Africa is a magical continent.

We used to load iron ore in Noudhibou for Antwerp about 100, 000 Tonnes in the late eighties . If there is something called hell this was it. Iron ore dust used to permeate into everything and every where. It used to take 2 days to load and by the time loading was over there was nearly 2 feet of iron ore dust on deck. One had to cover himself completely as due to strong winds you would be covered in no time. You have to spend half an hour in the shower to get rid of iron ore specks and your face would bleed as they would scratch your face as sharp tiny edges would be there in the particles. There was one Viatnemese pilot only to berth and unberth vessels and no sign of people elsewhere. Took nealry 2 days to wash the ship down/.

A wonderful program, a simple life with happy people. This is my beloved country, Mauritania. You had to show the bright side. There are beach towns and other beautiful spring towns
