  1. 0:00So, I've just gone into the back of
  2. 0:01someone. No.
  3. 0:03>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Sorry. My internet
  4. 0:06working.
  5. 0:07>> It says yes, but it No.
  6. 0:12>> Uh, and another thing uh toilet very
  7. 0:15smelly.
  8. 0:17>> You You know what I mean? Um like sewer
  9. 0:21coming from toilet. Whole flat is like
  10. 0:23Oh.
  11. 0:24>> Okay. Okay.
  12. 0:25>> All right. Come on. Come on.
  13. 0:28[sighs] It's been such a peaceful couple
  14. 0:31of days in my flat. There's been no
  15. 0:33staff, no builders.
  16. 0:35There's been one family in the house
  17. 0:37here. Very quiet, not family, but just a
  18. 0:39couple.
  19. 0:41Very quiet. [sighs]
  20. 0:43And yes, currently my apartment
  21. 0:46does somewhat smell of feces.
  22. 0:51Um, and I can assure you it's not just
  23. 0:52my explosive rear end.
  24. 0:56uh like it's like a deep sewage smell,
  25. 1:00but I imagine they'll be able to sort
  26. 1:01that with some sort of chemical, no
  27. 1:03doubt.
  28. 1:05And the internet's being superb. But
  29. 1:07anyway, what what's much more
  30. 1:09interesting than that? Maybe perhaps
  31. 1:10potentially,
  32. 1:13probably not, [snorts] is um
  33. 1:17yeah, I love this flat. I absolutely
  34. 1:19love this flat, but I'm very aware that
  35. 1:21it could change at any minute. you know,
  36. 1:23somebody could
  37. 1:25move in next door at any moment, and
  38. 1:28that makes a huge difference. There was
  39. 1:30somebody who left a really good comment
  40. 1:32on one of the recent videos, actually,
  41. 1:33where they said h they got to a place
  42. 1:36where it was just a they knew that for
  43. 1:38their sanity, they needed a
  44. 1:40non-negotiable barrier boundary, that
  45. 1:43wherever they live, they never have an
  46. 1:46adjoining wall with another property.
  47. 1:48And I just totally agree.
  48. 1:52So basically my visa expires in less
  49. 1:55than a month and obviously I'm just
  50. 1:57going to stay here for that month unless
  51. 1:58something dramatic changes. They've
  52. 2:00promised me that this half of a building
  53. 2:03that clearly needs
  54. 2:05building work isn't going to happen for
  55. 2:083 months.
  56. 2:10So you know I'm very much at the end of
  57. 2:12this visa I'm moving on from Vietnam.
  58. 2:14You know that's that's where I'm at.
  59. 2:17But then I'm thinking, well, if I could
  60. 2:19have this for another two months
  61. 2:21and you know, you saw how hard it was to
  62. 2:23find something like this. Now,
  63. 2:24admittedly, those lessons I learn in
  64. 2:26terrible properties, apartments, rushing
  65. 2:29things, ignoring red flags. Obviously,
  66. 2:32they've been learned and they'll be
  67. 2:33taken to the next country. So, you know,
  68. 2:35I'm confident that I can find something
  69. 2:37equivalent much faster next time. But
  70. 2:41but but it's hard. It's hard. So, I'm
  71. 2:44thinking to myself, if I know for two
  72. 2:46more months
  73. 2:48that I can live in peace and in nature,
  74. 2:53then maybe um
  75. 2:56yeah, maybe I should do another one of
  76. 2:57those horrendous visa runs because the
  77. 2:59the airport still isn't open.
  78. 3:03So, another one of those whatever is 36
  79. 3:05hours, 48 hours really when you take
  80. 3:07into account having to go the night
  81. 3:09before for the flight.
  82. 3:12I think this time though I'll do I won't
  83. 3:14go to Natrang. I won't Yeah, cuz that
  84. 3:16just extends it by another almost 24
  85. 3:18hours. I'll I'll do the sleeper bus
  86. 3:20twice. Now I know that the sleeper bus
  87. 3:22isn't that bad. I'll go to Dat to Hoim
  88. 3:26in on the sleeper bus straight and then
  89. 3:28I'm going to use a visa agent this time.
  90. 3:30So I'm going to be able to turn it
  91. 3:31around and get a threemon visa
  92. 3:35[sighs and gasps] in 24 hours.
  93. 3:38So that's where I'm at today. It's time
  94. 3:41to replace the gorgeous flowers of the
  95. 3:44lot. Return those to the land. Um it's
  96. 3:49deeply ingrained in me to return flowers
  97. 3:51to the land. Um from a pot shaman that I
  98. 3:54did a lot of work with who was very
  99. 3:56adamant that you know if you if you take
  100. 3:58from
  101. 3:59Gia, you give back to Gia.
  102. 4:03And Patrima would actually be the word
  103. 4:05he would use. Um, so I'm going to go and
  104. 4:08return those flowers to the lands and
  105. 4:10then Leslie, bless her, Leslie, my
  106. 4:13regular donator on buy me a coffee,
  107. 4:15which of course you can find in the
  108. 4:16description below. Um, really amazing
  109. 4:19supporter,
  110. 4:21has left me £25 and said, "Buy yourself
  111. 4:24a bunch of flowers." I think I don't
  112. 4:25think she realizes that things are a bit
  113. 4:26cheaper in Vietnam. So £25 will probably
  114. 4:29buy me um the best part of 10 bunches of
  115. 4:32flowers. But what I'm going to do is I'm
  116. 4:33going to go and buy some really special
  117. 4:35ones like some roses or something and
  118. 4:37like obviously not not worry about the
  119. 4:38money and feel the deep gratitude of
  120. 4:41Leslie's kindness.
  121. 4:44And then do I go and buy a SIM card? I
  122. 4:46think I finally need to go and buy a SIM
  123. 4:47card
  124. 4:49cuz it's just not worth it. One day of
  125. 4:50no internet cost me more than a SIM card
  126. 4:52would cost me anyway if it means I can't
  127. 4:54upload videos. So now you can hear maybe
  128. 4:57that the thunder is thundering. It's
  129. 5:00rumbling. It's about to pop. Feels like
  130. 5:03we're half an hour away from from big
  131. 5:05rainfall, which we haven't had for a few
  132. 5:07days. So, when it comes, it's going to
  133. 5:08really come,
  134. 5:10but at some point, I'd like to get out
  135. 5:11there and get a SIM card. So, I decided
  136. 5:14to take a chance and just brave it. And
  137. 5:16literally, as I strapped up and got
  138. 5:18ready to go, the uh the spots started
  139. 5:22falling on the ground.
  140. 5:25Oh man, I'm so bored. It's so obviously
  141. 5:27England's super rainy, but I feel like
  142. 5:29you get trapped by the rain here more.
  143. 5:31Like when it happens, it happens less,
  144. 5:32but it's just way more aggressive. Like
  145. 5:35it totally wipes out. Like, oh, it's a
  146. 5:37scooter thing in it. Of course. It's cuz
  147. 5:40I jumped on a scooter out here. [ __ ] it,
  148. 5:42man. I'm probably going to really regret
  149. 5:44this. I hate driving in that plastic. I
  150. 5:47hate driving in the rain, but I just
  151. 5:50It's like 2:00. I spent all day in the
  152. 5:52flat. There's no internet. I've had a
  153. 5:53very nice morning, but you know, I'm
  154. 5:55done with self. I need some external
  155. 5:58doing to occur and the police have just
  156. 6:01started up the uh sound system. So,
  157. 6:03yeah, definitely time to get on my bike.
  158. 6:06Hello. You sell the vital sim card?
  159. 6:09>> Yeah.
  160. 6:17I bought this uh the signage is like
  161. 6:19official, but it's clearly not an
  162. 6:21official shop.
  163. 6:23Um, the vital sim card.
  164. 6:30Okay, I managed to get out of it. It was
  165. 6:31one of those awkward people pleasing
  166. 6:33moments where you think something is
  167. 6:35something, a vital shop, an official
  168. 6:37shop, and then you walk in there and you
  169. 6:39realize it's not and then they're asking
  170. 6:40you questions and you just want to get
  171. 6:42out of there. Anyway, I managed to do
  172. 6:43it.
  173. 6:44>> But yeah, look, it's got an official big
  174. 6:46vital sign. So, that's what I fell for.
  175. 6:48But the minute I walked in and just saw
  176. 6:50secondhand iPhones, I thought, "Oh [ __ ]
  177. 6:55just felt like people please a panic."
  178. 6:57Well, I end up getting into a
  179. 6:58conversation, which I don't, you know.
  180. 7:00No, this is the wrong shop. I want to go
  181. 7:02to an official vital store. So then you
  182. 7:04can't even say that because of the
  183. 7:05language barrier. It's awful, man. I
  184. 7:07hate that [ __ ] Anyway, if you want some
  185. 7:09sea snails, this is where you come.
  186. 7:12Okay, let's put our brown coconut theory
  187. 7:15to the test. I've just driven past a
  188. 7:18wagon that's selling them for 12,000
  189. 7:20instead of a 17,000.
  190. 7:23I think these are going to be amazing.
  191. 7:25I've had them before. I know they're
  192. 7:26amazing. And I just thought, oh, it was
  193. 7:28a random amazing really sweet coconut,
  194. 7:32but no, I think these are really
  195. 7:34special. Hello, friend.
  196. 7:37>> Hello. Can I get four coconuts
  197. 7:41chopped?
  198. 7:43Come on. Well, sirens and mayhem up
  199. 7:46ahead. Whoa. Whoa. What is going on? I
  200. 7:52can't zoom in cuz the camera's gone all
  201. 7:53spazzy.
  202. 7:55That's four massive army trucks. Five.
  203. 7:59There's another one coming.
  204. 8:02What is going on up there? Oh, I just
  205. 8:05used a black word. How disgusting. So,
  206. 8:07that's five. Six.
  207. 8:11Uh, perfect.
  208. 8:14And then a a police car. Wow.
  209. 8:18That's um Yeah, something's kicking off
  210. 8:21in Vietnam. Look at that phone machine.
  211. 8:24This guy's an absolute professional. But
  212. 8:27this is where the real profession comes
  213. 8:29in. The years of experience, the 10,000
  214. 8:32hours to be an expert in coconut
  215. 8:35cutting. He's got to cut it so that it's
  216. 8:38soft enough for me to be able to get
  217. 8:39into, but he but he can't run the risk
  218. 8:42of going too far and slicing it open.
  219. 8:45Mad skill.
  220. 8:54Perfect. Come on.
  221. 8:56>> Come on.
  222. 9:02>> Oh, good. So, I've just got into the
  223. 9:04back of someone. Sorry.
  224. 9:08My this No.
  225. 9:11>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Sorry. What is there a
  226. 9:13problem? Is there any damage?
  227. 9:15>> Yes.
  228. 9:16>> Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
  229. 9:17Yeah. Sorry. What do we do?
  230. 9:20>> Uh
  231. 9:21>> in Vietnam, what do we do?
  232. 9:23>> You must uh you must pay this.
  233. 9:26>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay.
  234. 9:28>> So, how? Then I will uh will bring this
  235. 9:33car to a bar for
  236. 9:35>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay.
  237. 9:37>> Uh and they will fix.
  238. 9:39>> You want my telephone number or
  239. 9:43>> I don't really know how it happened. I
  240. 9:46think she slowed down. Definitely my
  241. 9:47fault
  242. 9:49and I I slam the brake that doesn't work
  243. 9:51and then just ended up in the back of
  244. 9:53it. Very strange. Anyway, this is the
  245. 9:55damage to my bike.
  246. 9:59That would fit back here.
  247. 10:06So, we've exchanged numbers.
  248. 10:21Finding out price now or
  249. 10:24what we what we wait for now.
  250. 10:27Heat.
  251. 10:36Heat.
  252. 10:58So, I'm not sure what I'm waiting for.
  253. 11:01Um, I've given my number. My
  254. 11:03understanding is she needs to go to a
  255. 11:05garage now. I'm not sure why I'm stood
  256. 11:07here, but I feel like she's expecting me
  257. 11:10to stay here.
  258. 11:16Hello there.
  259. 11:19>> Starting to think she's calling the
  260. 11:20police. Like she's looking at shops and
  261. 11:22saying where we are. Very strange. What
  262. 11:24are we waiting for? Are you going to go
  263. 11:26to the garage now or
  264. 11:27>> because you don't have a Vietnamese
  265. 11:29number to
  266. 11:32I
  267. 11:32>> I give you my
  268. 11:34>> but I but I can but I can not sure that
  269. 11:40will keep me.
  270. 11:42>> Okay. So what we doing? So what are we
  271. 11:44doing?
  272. 11:50>> Okay. So I I'm I'm here for another 30
  273. 11:53days. I can show you my visa. No
  274. 11:54problem. Um if you go to the garage and
  275. 11:57get price, I will pay. That's not a
  276. 11:59problem. And I give you my number. I'm
  277. 12:03not running away. I live here. I'm not
  278. 12:05I'm not a tourist. I understand. I do
  279. 12:06understand. I do understand. But what I
  280. 12:09just don't know why I'm standing in
  281. 12:10rain, you know.
  282. 12:13Yeah. No, I'm sorry. I I I understand. I
  283. 12:16understand.
  284. 12:17>> But I don't know what your friend can do
  285. 12:19because what we need is price from
  286. 12:20garage, don't we?
  287. 12:39There's we we can't sort it out here. We
  288. 12:42can only sort it out with professional
  289. 12:43engage, can't we? That's the problem. So
  290. 12:46even if your friends come, we can't do
  291. 12:48anything. We need we need garage.
  292. 12:57It
  293. 12:57>> all seems a bit strange to me.
  294. 13:03Is there anything else you need? Um,
  295. 13:14okay.
  296. 13:32I suggest that you pay for me, right? Uh
  297. 13:3610 million. So uh we will
  298. 13:40>> Oh, that's a lot. That's a lot.
  299. 13:42>> Wait, wait, wait. We will bring this car
  300. 13:45to the village and
  301. 13:47>> and uh we will show you the pro the bill
  302. 13:51uh to fix.
  303. 13:53>> You think it's going to be 10 million? I
  304. 13:54don't think it's going to be 10 million
  305. 13:55and I will pay and
  306. 13:57>> but then I'm having to trust you. Let's
  307. 13:59Why don't we both go to the damage now?
  308. 14:05>> 10 minutes.
  309. 14:06>> Okay. I go to phone shop. Pixel shop
  310. 14:08just there and I come back. Okay. I just
  311. 14:11want to go and buy a SIM card. Okay.
  312. 14:18>> Demon died.
  313. 14:19>> I thought the bike felt a bit funny as I
  314. 14:21just drove, I don't know, 3 km and I
  315. 14:25just found this piece of plastic. In
  316. 14:27fact, this this young man found it and
  317. 14:29pointed it out to me underneath the
  318. 14:32wheel. It's still attached to the wheel.
  319. 14:34So, I've just been driving on this
  320. 14:37plastic for 3 km.
  321. 14:40So, we have a building update for those
  322. 14:42who are watching the channel when I used
  323. 14:44to live in this hell hole. Yeah, still
  324. 14:47going, still noisy.
  325. 14:50[sighs]
  326. 14:51So, I'm actually recording this the next
  327. 14:53day because it all just got too much for
  328. 14:56me.
  329. 14:58Yeah, it was it was it was stressful.
  330. 15:02So, I went back to my old flat just then
  331. 15:05to collect some post if you're
  332. 15:06wondering.
  333. 15:07So, as you saw on the camera, you know,
  334. 15:09I was totally
  335. 15:12wanted to put that back. I, you know, I
  336. 15:16I'll be totally honest. I could notice
  337. 15:17the part of me that when I smashed into
  338. 15:19the back of her and she very slowly was
  339. 15:22pulling over like acknowledged like I
  340. 15:24could so easily just drive off right
  341. 15:26now. A scooter is going to outpace a car
  342. 15:28no problem in the city. Uh you know I
  343. 15:31can acknowledge a part of me that
  344. 15:32thought that but at no point was I like
  345. 15:35yeah that's that's the way to solve
  346. 15:36this. It was like absolutely
  347. 15:39uh 95% of me wanted to do the right
  348. 15:41thing, wanted to put it right and and
  349. 15:43that that was my intention.
  350. 15:47Ah, it's such a difficult one
  351. 15:51because I can totally see from her point
  352. 15:52of view and I've been where I judge her
  353. 15:55to be. So that's like very status
  354. 15:56driven, very materialistic,
  355. 15:59uh, middle class, brainwashed cuz all
  356. 16:01middle class people are brainwashed cuz
  357. 16:03they're the ones that go to the
  358. 16:04indoctrination camps that we call
  359. 16:05universities and all this. Um, and
  360. 16:08they're the ones that aren't in
  361. 16:09survival. Like if you're in survival,
  362. 16:11like look at the British working class.
  363. 16:13Look at the working class out here. You
  364. 16:15know, there's no time for ideology.
  365. 16:17There's no time for angr.
  366. 16:19You know, there's no time for liberal
  367. 16:21[ __ ] politics that sound nice but
  368. 16:23completely impractical. There's just
  369. 16:24none of that. Like that's why you don't
  370. 16:26get it in the working classes.
  371. 16:28So, you know, her newish or however new
  372. 16:31Ford obviously means a great deal to
  373. 16:33her. And I get that. You know, I used to
  374. 16:34drive a G Wagon. I used to drive a
  375. 16:36Porsche. And when I was driving those
  376. 16:38and when I was completely in the
  377. 16:40material and completely in the external,
  378. 16:41I too would have wanted a full
  379. 16:44replacement of the bumper. Whether I'd
  380. 16:46have been like, we have to go to the
  381. 16:48Mercedes garage, I don't know. But
  382. 16:52right, we we are in the land of BGE
  383. 16:54jobs. Like for long-term viewers who saw
  384. 16:57my adventures on Fuqua Island, I broke
  385. 17:00the bike seat and they did what you
  386. 17:04would call a bodgege job, but it was
  387. 17:05absolutely fantastic. Works brilliant.
  388. 17:08Solved the problem. Cost £250.
  389. 17:12Now, maybe I'm wrong, maybe there was
  390. 17:15more damage, maybe her sensors were
  391. 17:17affected, but what I saw was a hairline
  392. 17:20crack on the top of her bumper, which
  393. 17:24you know, with a skill set in Vietnam
  394. 17:26for stuff like this, like that that
  395. 17:29could that could easily be fixed by
  396. 17:32filling it in, sanding it off,
  397. 17:33repainting it. Um, probably for 10, 20,
  398. 17:38maybe up to 50. Uh, and you would never
  399. 17:41notice. You would never notice. But of
  400. 17:44course, she wants to go to a Ford
  401. 17:45garage. Straight away she mentions a
  402. 17:47Ford garage. And even then, I'm like,
  403. 17:49"Yeah, okay. Here's my number." You
  404. 17:51know, what can I do? I'm in the wrong.
  405. 17:54Um, you know, looking back on the
  406. 17:55incident now.
  407. 17:57I just don't know. I still don't know
  408. 17:59how it happened. I haven't actually
  409. 18:00watched the footage. Maybe I should
  410. 18:01watch Oh, no. Cuz I don't film the
  411. 18:02crash. I filmed the aftermath.
  412. 18:05All I know is when I went to break,
  413. 18:09sadly I hit the the right brake, the one
  414. 18:12that doesn't work because that's the one
  415. 18:13that I I you I have used the most in the
  416. 18:16past and therefore like when I'm in a
  417. 18:18panic situation, my nervous system knows
  418. 18:20to just grab that. So I I grabbed that
  419. 18:22and I remember feeling the despair. I
  420. 18:25remember the physical feeling of a break
  421. 18:27just, you know, you can feel like the
  422. 18:29brake has resistance. When a bake is
  423. 18:31working, it has resistance in it and you
  424. 18:32actually have to like use your muscles
  425. 18:34to um pull it towards you. But when it's
  426. 18:38[ __ ] there's no resistance and it's
  427. 18:39just like so I can remember the feeling
  428. 18:42of that in my hand and I can remember
  429. 18:44the despair in my body and soul as I
  430. 18:47hurdle towards his car. And then what
  431. 18:50naturally happens when you panic on a
  432. 18:52bike if you're I mean maybe it happens
  433. 18:55if you're really experienced but I would
  434. 18:56still class myself as relatively
  435. 18:58inexperienced you know compared to a
  436. 19:00Southeast Asian who was put on a bike at
  437. 19:02like 3 months old for example uh and
  438. 19:05then was driving one themselves by 10
  439. 19:07years old. H I've been driving I've
  440. 19:10driven I've driven a motorcycle for one
  441. 19:13year of my life altogether maybe a bit
  442. 19:15more maybe 18 months.
  443. 19:18So, what I noticed a lot when I first
  444. 19:21started riding a scooter and now I still
  445. 19:23notice in extreme situations like that
  446. 19:25is when something goes wrong, you panic
  447. 19:29and lean back, which is obviously the
  448. 19:32worst thing you can do. And when you do
  449. 19:34that, you end up going like that, which
  450. 19:37which is the accelerator. So, not only
  451. 19:40did the base not work, I actually
  452. 19:42accelerated into the back of her. I hit
  453. 19:45her as hard as you could possibly hit
  454. 19:47someone without getting hurt, you know,
  455. 19:49any any harder than I' I'd have come off
  456. 19:51a bike. So, it wasn't super hard, but it
  457. 19:54it was pretty hard. I mean, it was a
  458. 19:56real thud. And it's done some, you know,
  459. 19:58it's done some proper damage to my bike,
  460. 20:02a Russian's bike.
  461. 20:04And, you know, I'm a bit pissed off with
  462. 20:06him for not responding adequately when I
  463. 20:08told him the brakes were were [ __ ]
  464. 20:09I'm also pissed off at myself for not
  465. 20:12pushing that further and just being
  466. 20:14like, "Okay, I'll drive around on a
  467. 20:15[ __ ] up bike and risk my life." I
  468. 20:17mean, just mental. So, she mentions the
  469. 20:20Ford garage.
  470. 20:23Then she starts ringing what she says is
  471. 20:26her friends. I mean, I have no idea who
  472. 20:27she was ringing. And she's telling them
  473. 20:29the shops and and then she's telling me
  474. 20:31to stay there for 10 minutes. So, you
  475. 20:33know, I'm a foreigner on my own in a
  476. 20:36foreign land where everything is
  477. 20:38completely the opposite. I don't know
  478. 20:39the laws. I don't know the culture. I
  479. 20:42don't know anything.
  480. 20:44Now, up until this point, I've been
  481. 20:46really cordial, really uh yes, I'm going
  482. 20:49to fix this. I've even said, "Why don't
  483. 20:51we both go to the garage right now, get
  484. 20:53the quote, and then I'll pay the money."
  485. 20:55Um, and then she starts ringing friends
  486. 20:58to come and and so obviously my paranoid
  487. 21:01mind starts going to like, well, who are
  488. 21:03these friends and what are they going to
  489. 21:06demand? Obviously, it's going to be a
  490. 21:07load of men. Um,
  491. 21:10whilst my overall experience and
  492. 21:13interactions with Vietnamese people is
  493. 21:15incredibly positive, you know, I've also
  494. 21:18been scammed a couple of times. So, you
  495. 21:22know, I start going into admittedly
  496. 21:24extreme and unlikely possibilities, but
  497. 21:26you know, possibilities like, am I going
  498. 21:28to get dragged around ATMs?
  499. 21:31Now, so then she mentions, sorry, before
  500. 21:34I go into that, she mentions giving her
  501. 21:3610 million dong. That's like I think
  502. 21:38£360, $400,
  503. 21:41$450 maybe. Um,
  504. 21:46that's that seems way way over the top.
  505. 21:50And then she does talk about like
  506. 21:51acknowledging it's over the top and
  507. 21:53giving me the rest back once she's paid
  508. 21:55for it. But then what? You want me to
  509. 21:57put trust into another Vietnamese person
  510. 22:00after every time I put every time I've
  511. 22:03put money and trust to a point where
  512. 22:06they've had power over me into a
  513. 22:07Vietnamese person. It's No, that's not
  514. 22:09true. There was the concrete bunker hell
  515. 22:11hole uh where she gave me a full refund
  516. 22:14after I broke a chair on her ceiling and
  517. 22:16she didn't want me there anymore. So no
  518. 22:19it's not entirely true but I have
  519. 22:20experienced you know if you give more
  520. 22:24than and give power to it gets abused
  521. 22:28and that would absolutely happen in
  522. 22:29England as well you know this isn't you
  523. 22:31know I'm not knocking Vietnam actually
  524. 22:34overall my experience is Vietnam is much
  525. 22:36more honest and trustworthy than England
  526. 22:39is now not what England used to be h but
  527. 22:42what England is now since we let just
  528. 22:44absolute scum and bow weapons in and
  529. 22:46everyone's just given up having any sort
  530. 22:48of morals or pleasantries or or um you
  531. 22:51know everyone's just totally in survival
  532. 22:53and and grabbby grabby grab grab.
  533. 22:58[sighs]
  534. 23:00So I started hearing £360. I started
  535. 23:04seeing that people were coming and I I
  536. 23:07basically panicked and genuinely like
  537. 23:10when I hit her I was on my way to a shop
  538. 23:13that was about 100 yards away from where
  539. 23:15I hit her.
  540. 23:17So genuinely I was
  541. 23:21say I said to her, "Listen, I'm going to
  542. 23:23go and get my SIM card. I don't want to
  543. 23:24just stand here and I'll come back." And
  544. 23:26when I said that,
  545. 23:28I guess I didn't mean it because I
  546. 23:29didn't go back. But you know, I I I
  547. 23:31thought I meant it.
  548. 23:33And then as I'm driving away,
  549. 23:39yeah, I make a selfish decision and it
  550. 23:41doesn't feel good. Like it's not a it's
  551. 23:42not an aligned decision. It's not a
  552. 23:44decision of integrity. It's definitely
  553. 23:45coming from the shadow.
  554. 23:47Because really, if I if I was in total
  555. 23:50trust with the universe, I wouldn't even
  556. 23:51mind getting ripped off because I just
  557. 23:52know the universe is going to give me
  558. 23:54back. Because it basically the more you
  559. 23:56just learn to accept and not
  560. 23:59not get triggered by not trying to
  561. 24:01control from the ego, the universe just
  562. 24:03fills that space that creates space and
  563. 24:05that just gets filled up with higher
  564. 24:07vibrations and more abundance. So, you
  565. 24:09know, intellectually I understand that
  566. 24:11and I do live by that in in in a large
  567. 24:14percentage of my life. But sometimes
  568. 24:16it's just too much for my ego even
  569. 24:18though I know that it's the wrong
  570. 24:20decision and I know morally it's wrong.
  571. 24:23It makes me feel [ __ ]
  572. 24:25Um, it also makes me paranoid that I'm
  573. 24:28going to get into trouble obviously. I
  574. 24:30mean, I've looked into the law and
  575. 24:34essentially it says that police are very
  576. 24:36unlikely to get involved in what they
  577. 24:39would see as a civil matter as nobody
  578. 24:41got hurt. They said the exception to
  579. 24:43that is if she's someone important then
  580. 24:45they will absolutely look into it, you
  581. 24:47know, like a political member or
  582. 24:48something like that. Um,
  583. 24:51and then they said, so they said it's
  584. 24:53unlikely they look into it and then if
  585. 24:55you're unlucky that she's a powerful
  586. 24:57person and they do look into it, um,
  587. 25:00then they're not going to come searching
  588. 25:02for you. They're going to invite you to
  589. 25:04the station for mediation.
  590. 25:07So that's that's I experienced that in
  591. 25:08Thailand. Um, you know, that's how the
  592. 25:11police work out here. It's it's very
  593. 25:13different and I think better. I haven't
  594. 25:15really experienced it enough or thought
  595. 25:17about it enough, but it's got to be
  596. 25:18better than our horrendous um two-tier
  597. 25:21treasonous disgusting liard police
  598. 25:25system police deep state foot soldiers.
  599. 25:28Just [ __ ] tyrannical absolute [ __ ]
  600. 25:30Just to be clear, I'm speaking about
  601. 25:32English police here. Um so it's
  602. 25:36definitely better because the because
  603. 25:37their police um are patriotic and love
  604. 25:40their country. So it's it just has to be
  605. 25:43a million times better. even if there
  606. 25:45are some bad elements to it, which I'm
  607. 25:46not even saying there are. I don't know.
  608. 25:48Um, so they would not just come and
  609. 25:51arrest me. They would invite me in for
  610. 25:53mediation in which I would obviously
  611. 25:55have to take ownership for the fact it
  612. 25:58was my fault cuz it was. And we would
  613. 26:01agree a price and it would be paid at
  614. 26:03the station. And then there may be some
  615. 26:05what's called coffee money for the
  616. 26:07police um as a thank you for them
  617. 26:09mediating the situation.
  618. 26:12Um, and that's kind of worst case
  619. 26:15scenario. Um, absolute worst case
  620. 26:17scenario is, um,
  621. 26:21I get done for like leaving the scene
  622. 26:25and that's a fine of about 80 to£120.
  623. 26:28So, I don't think there's um, you know,
  624. 26:31I don't think it's a massive crime. I'm
  625. 26:34I'm not
  626. 26:36I you know I can notice a part of my
  627. 26:38mind that wants to run away with that
  628. 26:39story and and will get paranoid about it
  629. 26:41particularly after a smoke in the
  630. 26:42evening. But um but really I'm I'm
  631. 26:46feeling good about that. It's just
  632. 26:48really the moral side and the fact that
  633. 26:50you know I have caused damage to
  634. 26:52someone's car and I haven't put it
  635. 26:53right. But then at the same time it's my
  636. 26:56judgment that she's trying to scam me.
  637. 26:57So, it's like I want to meet her
  638. 27:00correctly and then she wants to meet me
  639. 27:03with a scam potentially
  640. 27:08why I'm not playing that game. But then
  641. 27:10is that just my ego making that up to
  642. 27:13justify why I'm not doing the right
  643. 27:15thing?
  644. 27:17Oh, the Shadow Dance. It's an
  645. 27:19interesting one. If you think it's
  646. 27:20interesting, then check out my other
  647. 27:22channel because we talk about this sort
  648. 27:23of stuff way more. Well, that's what it

  653. 27:36and be honest. Try not to just, you
  654. 27:38know, stroke your ego and chat [ __ ]
  655. 27:40because I'll see through it and it's
  656. 27:42boring. What's the [ __ ] point?
