Bolivia: in the heat of the Oruro Carnival | FULL DOCUMENTARY

On the high plateaus of Bolivia at more than 3700 meters of altitude, in Oruro, the carnival is the living expression of the long history of the conquest of the country by the Spanish people.

If the carnival is entirely dedicated to the virgin, with the pilgrimage-parade which lasts more than 5 hours, it is a virgin of mixed race which is venerated, fruit of the resistance of the local populations which succeeded in transmitting the symbols of the Andean cultures.

And it is to the rhythm of the Diablada, which embodies the soul of the Andean man that the carnival is celebrated, danced and played every year during several days.

Documentary: Carnivals - Oruro
Directed by: Juan José Lozano
Production: Un Film à la Patte, L'envol & ARTE

Bolivia, en el Infierno Verde de la Selva Amazónica | Viajes Más Mortales

En la espesura humeante de la selva boliviana, una familia recolecta los cascarones podridos de los árboles de almendra gigantes. Con sus propias manos, extraen las nueces que contienen las almendras destinadas a las tiendas gourmet en todo el mundo. Edgar debe transportarlas en su antiguo camión hacia una planta procesadora lo más rápido posible. Al igual que él, Ramiro carga con otro de los tesoros saqueados del bosque: la madera. El camino podría ser un paseo saludable, pero en Bolivia, la constante matanza de la selva está perturbando el ecosistema y creando desequilibrios climáticos sin precedentes. Lluvias excepcionales toman por sorpresa a los dos conductores, y los ríos de la Amazonía inundan millones de hectáreas. La carretera principal hacia la capital, La Paz, se encuentra bajo el agua. En pocos días, el país se divide en dos y más de 100.000 personas resultan afectadas.

Deadliest Journeys - Bolivia: The Road Of Death

00:00 There are two worlds in Bolivia. That of the Altiplano, the highlands, perched at an altitude of more than 4000 meters. And that of the Amazon basin, which tops out at a few hundred meters above sea level. Between the two, there is a transition region, made of vertiginous precipices and trails that descend the Andean Cordillera in a few tens of kilometers. . It is the region of the Yungas, a country where the horizontal does not exist. In these valleys winds a road, the only means of communication between La Paz, the administrative capital of the country, perched on the Altiplano, and the riches of the Amazon basin. The Bolivians nicknamed it el camino de la muerte, the road to death. Highest point: the La Cumbre pass, 4700 meters, at the exit of La Paz. 78 kilometers further, we are barely 900 meters. Along this road of the impossible, we follow the story of a community of cocaleros, coca growers clinging to the slopes of the mountain. To carry their loads to the road, they stretched makeshift cables made of simple iron wires across the valley. An infernal zip line, nearly 400 meters long, 200 meters above the ground. We also share the daily life of a vachero, a truck driver who transports cows from the Amazon basin to La Paz, the highest metropolis in the world. 25 hours of journey on the road to death, done without stopping. Because you have to go very quickly: if a cow dies, the driver pays.
4:30 Villagers found an outstanding way to travel faster
9:00 Sky cables synonym of death
20:24 A 1000000 km truck that could break at any time
32:09 One slip on the 3m beam and it's a 500m Drop
43:19 Coca, ingredient in strong medicin getting sold in daylight

Dynamite, Coke And A Man-Eating Mountain: Bolivia's Potosi | Crossing The Andes | TRACKS

Stef Biemans travels the ridge of the Andes and wonders how South Americans are doing in Potosí, the highest city in the world, and once one of its richest, but also one where life can be short.

In the mining town of Potosí, capitalism was born, as it were. Here, the first coin was struck using silver from the mine of the ‘rich mountain’, which is still in use. So much silver has been extracted from this imposing mountain, you could use it to build a bridge to Spain. But you could also build a bridge out of the bones of dead miners and slaves. On average, miners only make it to the age of 45.

Ametrine from Bolivia documentary of Patrick Voillot

English :
Deutsch :
French :
Italian :
Spanish :
chinese :
Russian :
Japanese :
The Indians from the tropical forests of Chaco in Bolivia recount that at night plaintive sounds emanate from the Anaï mine.

This legend is still very present in their minds and is connected to the place where one finds this fascinating mauve and yellow stone called ametrine.

While watching this documentary film you will participate in an adventurous expedition to the heart of a little known country, Bolivia.

After several days navigating the Rio Paraguay, which has the largest reserves in the world of crocodiles and piranhas, you will be taken to a place lost in the tropical forest of Chaco in the far east of Bolivia, where wild animals and mosquitoes reign.

Bolivian miners who are long experienced in exploiting the subsoil, discovered one of the largest known geodes : superb crystals covering the edges of a chasm measuring several hundred square metres.

English :
Deutsch :
French :
Isolated from the rest of the world, these teams take it in turn to exploit the precious gem, sort it and send it by boat towards Santa Cruz.

In this town, the rough crystals are transformed into superb cut stones which are then sent to various cities in the country and worldwide.

The route along which the ametrine travels cuts across Bolivia with its wild festivals such as the carnival of Oururo. The stones will be sold in the United States in world’s largest market for precious stones in Tucson, Arizona where Lorenz Baümer, the jeweler in Place Vendôme in Paris, goes to buy these rare gems which he will mount onto his creations.

A Short Film About Buying A Bolivian Hat ( Not Clickbait! )

LATEST MERCH:
???????? Not every endeavour can be a work of art. David Bowie wrote the song Heroes but also The Laughing Gnome...Take this upload for example. Literally nothing interesting happens in it, just me being miserable in the rain and I'm even somewhat ashamed to upload it, but it's 3am in Bolivia and I can't sleep due to the jet lag. Even the shitty Adam Sandler movie I just watched on Netflix has not helped me fall sleep. So I thought why not stick something up and read some comments. Maybe someone will love it and think it's the greatest video ever made on youtube or maybe you have jet lag too and want to kill 10 minutes of your time instead of just lying there staring at the ceiling all night wondering if you will ever nod off and what the meaning of life is. Or maybe you are on the toilet having your morning pooh before going to work and would like to see a bald man randomly buy a bowler hat in South America to pass the time. I don't which one of those is you know but there you go. Have a great day/night/pooh everyone. Oh and in case you want to know, the f*king hat cost me $65!!! Unbelievable.

Deadliest Journeys - Peru: Vertigo In The Andes

00:00 Summary
06:15 The town of Trujillo
07:11 373 km of precipice between Trujillo and Retamas
14:50 Cotahuasi Canyon, the devil's mouth
21:00 The Paracas desert
26:56 The most dangerous part of the mountain
30:36 Retamas, the city of gold
36:39 80 km to go shopping
41:57 On Asia Island, one of the toughest jobs in the world
43:53 Guano, one of the world's best natural fertilizers

On Deep canyons cut into the Andes cordillera from the north to the south of Peru. In order to supply the gold mines, tend their vines or quite simply gain access to their villages, people have no choice but to take the most improbable of roads, hewn out of the rock. Major companies always find their place at the end of the road, attracted by the fabulous natural resources of the country, either under the ground with its wealth of precious metals or in its waters teeming with fish. However, it’s rare for all this wealth to benefit the lowly workers, the men and women who have to bend double to work deep in the shafts, scratching at the earth amidst clouds of ammonia, or risk their lives at the end of a 200’ rope, for a handful of euros. From the Maranon River valley to the Cotahuasi canyon, by way of the Paracas desert, this Impossible Road makes its way through a Peru of magnificent landscapes, but where life comes at a high price…

Borneo: The Jungle Convoy | Deadliest Journeys

00:00 Borneo has one of the last primary forests in Southeast Asia.

A treasure that makes the fortune of forestry operations. Loggers and drivers come from all over Indonesia to seek the best wages in the country, slaughtering with all their might. Dangerous work carried out under extreme conditions. Massive deforestation has disfigured the region to the point of endangering the wildlife and indigenous peoples who live there. Borneo, the fourth largest island in the world, has become the symbol of this unequal struggle against the big companies which exploit its wealth to the detriment of its inhabitants, its fauna and its flora.

03:08 The island is shared by Indonesia, Malaysia and Brunei
04:50 All Borneo inhabitants are armed
10:42 According to tradition, every tree shelters a spirit
13:10 Once a head-chopping tribe, now a peaceful one
13:59 Ali sells birds on the market to earn a living
19:48 Borneo is facing an ecological disaster: the island has lost 85% of its primary forest.
21:05 The wood from this forest is considered the hardest in the world.
24:24 With the rains, he has to drive on a muddy road
28:11 In the Derawan archipelago, the inhabitants hope that the search for oil will not destroy the archipelago.
32:37 The inhabitants of this archipelago are called sea gypsies.
35:30 With his load of wood, the road becomes perilous
41:00 To transport the logs, they float them
44:55 But sometimes the forest reclaims the land, erasing all human traces.

'In Search of: Butch Cassidy' ~ season 2 episode 21

As leader of The Wild Bunch, Butch Cassidy was among the most notorious outlaws in American history. Reportedly killed in a shootout in Bolivia in 1908, evidence is presented that Butch survived and died of natural causes in the 1930s.

Butch Cassidy was an American outlaw and foremost member of the Wild Bunch, a collection of bank and train robbers who ranged through the western United States in the 1880s and '90s. On July 11, 1899, the gang made the biggest score they would ever make, robbing a New Mexico train of $70,000. They then robbed another Wyoming train of $55,000 on August 29, 1900. On September 9th of that year, the gang stole $32,640 and began plotting to flee to South America.
