The whole section between 2:18 and 2:50 has changed, they closed 2 lanes and is supposed to be used for the rapid bus transport system.

Damn new government wasting taxes like this makes me sick. Can't wait for the DA to take this city away from the anc.
HEY @ 1:57 ive been there!! Wow nostalgia.. All these driving scenes look a lot like where they filmed the movie white wedding. I bought it today from itunes cause I heard it was shot in SA and its really funny. I thought it was really good. such a beautiful city!! Whiteweddingmovie. com
Excellent footage, 80SAFRIKA. I lived in Jozi couple of months. You created a very authentic view and choosed the perfect soundtrack. Your Video makes made me smile.
The colonial period is over. You were suppose to leave when the British left. Didn't you get the memo? Black SA really hate you and always will. Leave! Go enjoy Europe and its riches. We don't need you here. I know you can't bear to live without Africans, we can still see each other when we trade our goods. Leave! Africans can't stand you. We're just now waking up. Leave before it's too late. Your moments of tyranny is over.
@jubilee203 You are a prick, the reason south africa is the way it is Today is because of racist pricks like you, please do not forget that the same people you are trying tyo chace away taught your sorry ass race how to live like civilised human beings, if it wasnt for "these people" you are trying to chase away you would still be living in a hut made of cow shit.
@coke491You have no proof that they were living in huts. You want me to take your words for it, right?right!? Of course you do, but that's not happening. Is that why your rapist ancestors tried to destroy all the relics of the continent so no one could see them. Is that why you gave us AIDS? You fuckng disease carriers. I don't know where you whites get all those disease from. I guess by fucking animals and anal fucking other man. boy, you people are sick. Civilized? I hope you die of sun cancer
@jubilee203 So why does your page indicate you are living in a country (United States) that is full of whites. And by the way, white SOUTH AFRICANS may be sick but OTHER whites are not. Yes?
@jubilee203 Yawn same story over and over, the truth is the reason there is so many diseases is because the black south African man originates from the ape and had intercourse with a ape and viola there you have aids. You think I sound stupid right?!?! Now you know what you sound like to the rest of us, you insults and conclusions don’t anger anybody it’s the fact that you believe this type of shit and that you’re so narrow minded that is disappointing. Now run little person.
@coke491 I think you might be angry because I told you the truth. Did you really think black people like whites and want to live with them. You're so naive. You think forgiveness is free. You have no idea the hatred we have against whites. Just leave Africa, give us time to ponder the crime your people committed. I don't know if you know the history of Haiti. Well, after their independence, they chopped off all the whites with machete. Please, no more epithet, it doesn't phase me.
@jubilee203 Like I told you before I don’t get angry at stupidity and your narrow lil' mind.... and BTW your example of a rapist... well.... sorry I don’t understand your example because raping is more of the black nature and everybody knows that... well I’m off again, feel free to type 3 more comments to express your retarded mind, I’m use to people like you by now already I treat you all like real retards because that’s what you actually are. Just a big old ape with a 3year olds brain. Cheers
@jubilee203 So my advice to you is stop passing these types of comments on a public website for the world to see how uneducated your kind actually is, South Africa is a wonderful place it’s just A shame that morons like are still allowed to breathe and breed here causing crime, BTW seeing that you are chasing people away why don’t you fuck off and live in the desert with your animal skins and all and leave the cities that were built by “these people” you want to chase to “back” Europe.
@coke491 I don't remember anybody invited you to build cities. OK. how about you figure out this puzzle? A woman got rape, gave birth to child, rapist fled and on the run? Who is that child belong to? Does it still belong to the rapist. Exactly. Nothing you built, mine, grow in Africa belongs to whites. By the way, There is nothing wrong living in the jungle. For some reason you think that's an insult. A jungle is a land in Africa, for that I love it. Unlike a parasite like you who can't value.
@jubilee203 If there wouldn't have been white people in South Africa the country didn't have city's, a good economy and all the wonderful people living out there.
There would be only people that 'don't need help' and 'we can do it ourselves' and you would not be able to send such stupid comments on youtube because you don't have a computer. you refused it from the people of europe that were trying to help make south africa a better country. But no, we hate white people, we do it ourselves....
@jubilee203 The white people were in charge until 1996, they've given the black people a change, and some of them including Nelson Mandela wanted to make South Africa a country for White and Black and what happens then? There are people who can't live in peace so they just burn white peoples houses, murder them because they were living on their ground? that's not peace, and that's why South Africa is what it is at the moment, a beautiful country that is neglected because of hateful people
Wherever there is black and white mixture countries there is always crime. other African countries although have poverty gaps don't that much crimes as much as SA. They is too much history between blacks and white. They shouldn't live together. White people should leave SA and go back to Europe. You have the money to do so. Instead you rather stay and complain about crimes. Go back home! Africans don't need you. You caused enough havoc. Black SA really hate you and will never forget your crimes.
@Rolosoy666 jajaja tu siempre tan fino verdad, se ve que te educaron bien eh! pero sabes en vez de enojarme tu comentario sin ningun punto de interes me da risa porque como puede haber tanta gente tan india jaja pobre de ti sigue insultando
@Rolosoy666 disculpa? no te entiendo escribe bien o informate bien, que es frijoritos no entiendo, y digo si puedes abrir un libro y ver un poco de nuestra historia seria mejor y te ahorras la verguenza de ser tan inculto, te podria dar una catedra de historia mexicana pero me da flojera porque se ve que no tienes cerebro para comprender y sigue respondiendo al fin me das mas risa cada que pones algo nuevo jaja adios compañero...
@Rolosoy666 Brother guarda tu odio para los negros que esos maldito si son unos malditos, los indios por lo menos tienen algo de inteligencia, pero los negros no se ni porque America esta plagado de ellos islas llenas de esa peste arratrando su pobreza y emfermedades, america debería de librarse de ellos y yo odio tanto momento en que un negro gobernó mi pais hasta los latinos tienen un cierto grado de inferioridad y me refiero a los verdaderos latinos de europa no cruzas.
@KSwain10 No. There is a huge migration of the 23-30 years old range back to the cities. The United States will never be like South Africa because we don't have race wars.
I have seen worse, everywhere you go has their ugly parts. Just look at Detroit LOL. I always wanted to visit S.A Joburg is not that ugly, but people tell me it used to me nicer looking and safer. Alot of Americans I know think all of Africa is uncivilized and ugly. Cape Town will be my first place to visit. Johannesburg if I am brave enough.
@mautwana It is a fact that Johannesburg is dangerous, it has statistically been in the top 5 cities for murders, robberies, and rapes for the past decade. Travelers also have their fair share of problems while traveling there. I know this because it is a fact that isn't hard to find. As for the ugly part, that is just an opinion but I guess I'm just used to beautiful infrastructure. You don't have to go there to know this general knowledge about the city.
@quatlen fair.. thats your opinion mate!!! ill tell you at least five cities that are more dangerous than johannesburg. NY, mexico city, rio, colombia, london, bones eris, detrot, washington,
stats lie my friend, countries supress thier stats for various reasons.
btw where do you live?? what city. we like our city. if you dont then mhy come to its video and even comment? ie i have never been on anything of austalia cos i hate the place and the people and the counry so i dont even look at it
@mautwana actually wrong. New York is one of the safest cities in the world, crime rate has plummeted amazingly. Small towns in Texas have more crime than New York. Johannesburg looks dirty and looks like a city that has easy places to rob. and don't be jealous of those other cities you listed they're all better than the shithole in South Africa.
The Johannesburg CBD is still a very interesting place, and the Hillbrow Police has stated that their town is too small for crime, ie crime can be controlled with more effort.
That is what happens when you elect a socialist into power. I am not saying that the US is immune we are seeing it everyday and it is only going to get worse!
I live in Anchorage-AK, and i've been in JHB it's a very huge,modern, and clean place..of course there're some criminals but not like NYC or Chica or even LA, it's really beautiful and exciting city but very hot..
@gage1030 Well if you see Joburg through the eyes of stupid movie you are missing out... the movie in no way portrays the real feel of Joburg city.. Joburg city is the most amazing place on earth, I lived there and I can testify to that... go visit if you are not from SA, or if you havent been there yet, cheers!
Yall are some racist phuckers!! The only reason you have such shit to say is that this city is in AFRICA!! You're so g-damn pissed it looks NICE and CLEAN and DEVELOPED you don't know what to do with your Dumb Racist AZZES!! I can't stay you ignorant bastards! Guess what-- Not all Africa is what you closed minded azzes love to see on TV. That's right- there are developed cities there! So get over it and yourself. Racist pricks!!!
Hello dear visitors, writers and readers .......I wanted to tell you to go and see my channel .... and especially my new video on my city ROME ........anyway this video is very nice compliments and also JOHANNESBURG... is beautiful .....greetings and many kisses from ROME
There's nothing trashy about this city. I saw no trash on the streets at all. Your reference to Detroit means you're being a little racist, IMO. What about NYC? Most trashiest city here! And I'm American. So kindly STFU!! Oh- and Chicago ain't that great either
What are you smoking??? Metro Detroit is mostly white! Detroit isn't even close to being as bad as Johannesburg. Get with it South Africa is a dump since the ANC took over. And considering that Chicago is widely considered one of the cleanest and most beautiful cities in the world I think you have no credibility.
Metroit Detroit is mostly white and not as bad?? WTF are YOU smoking? Where do you live I'm curious. Nobody gives a dayum about Chicago either- Atlanta on the other hand IS one of the most beautiful. It yes it does look an America city, somewhere in south Florida to be exact. Quit holding America over their heads- how the hell you gonna say it's an insult to America. Get your heads out the clouds--arrogance
Atlanta is a nice city, but to say it is one of the most beautiful or one of America's greatest cities is quite an overstatement. Chicago on the other hand is a great city, and that is why more than 9 million people decide to live in Chicagoland. I personally live in Chicagoland in Winnetka, IL. I can see comparing Little Haiti to Johannesburg, but you have to understand that almost all of Johannesburg save some wealthy areas is a mess.
im sorry but i was born in johannesburg and lived there half my life and i absolutely love the country but johnrhysmusician is right, the streets are dirty, there's rubbish everywhere, there are gangs and robbers but that doesn't mean your going to be shot when you walk around the streets in the middle of the day. It is a beautiful place but it is not a clean city and i was born and raised around dark africans, im not a racist.
oh yes when white rassist were humilating the majority of the people of the country...I've got lost in soweto at night a couple of weeks ago and everybody was kind and helpful (of course because there were only blacks around).
my house got robbed 7 times befor we moved and 3 of my neighbors houses got robbed and they were killed and the same thing with my uncles farm 2 nights ago it got broken into but 20-30 people and they attacked my uncle and aunt with hammers and knives this was all in or near joburg. the only reason i dont think anything happened to you was because no one there wanted police around there
I spent a week there and had a great time. Don't scare people off with nonsense since with basic precautions the city should be fine. Enjoy the Apartheid Museum, Newtown, Melville (great for the evening(, the now-improving CBD and Constitution Hill (only during the day, Braamfontein and also head up to the bland suburbs of Sandton or Houghton to see the glitzy part. Soweto, of course, is also really interesting. Jo'Burg is a great city.
i have lived there from when i was born untill i was 7 (im 16 now) and in the 7 years of being there i never seen anything bad (exept a car jacking and a gun war between police and 3 other guys) i would say that Los Angeles is more dangerous and have you ever even been to Jo'Burg
Roughly between 5-25 million Rand, Those big houses in Houghton are some of the oldest houses in JHB, they are considered ' old money' whereas Sandton is considered 'new money'
Thats between 1.8 to 2.5 million rand, you can still get a massive house anywhere for that price. I'm from the south of JHB, Mondeor, Meredale, Glenvista, Glenanda, Ridgeway are all decent areas.
In the North places like Rosebank, Parktown, Parkurst, Sandton, Houghton and further North places like Midrand or Randburg are full of good newly built properties
Public transit sucks in many SA cities so some township guys got the idea to transport people using vans(called taxis)) It is a huge business now. Joburg has now put the first leg on an express busway with stations throughout the city. High marks so far.
Very brave to film that through joburg.. I was expecting to see one of those taxi drivers (mini busses) stopping at the stop street and taking the nicking camera! Sends shivers down my spine this footage.
5 o'clock by the perceptionists yea man its safe just dont do anything stupid but not much happenin in joburg for tourist really probably better go cape town unless you wanna go game reserves
I disagree. sure Cape Town is incredibly beautiful but Johannesburg makes up its lack of evident landmarks and beauty with a vibrant atmosphere. The CBD during the days feels 100 times more African than Cape Town and suburbs like Melville are also a great venue for an evening fun. Not to mention it's great to visit solely due to its pivotal role in the recent history of South Africa and much more racially integrated than CT in my opinion. Very different, but both CT and Jo'Burg are great.
Since first seeing this vid I have returned to Joburg, visited Alex, been out on night shift patrol with SAPS... the old SA I knew so well from the days of my youth is gone. Still a hell of a buzz going on though. One of a kind, nowhere else quite like it. BTW couldn't find Cashless Society CDs in any of the shops I tried, but you have converted me into a Perceptionists fan! Dankie my swaer!
Biggest city in Africa, Biggest flavour on the continent, make no mistake, its no place for being incompetent, this place will hit you bigger than a comet, it'll leave you saying ' no no, I haven't got it! if you got the money, dont flaunt it,
plenty out there who have the dreams, just not easy cause they dont have the means, some get needy others get greedy, a combination that'll kill you with speedy, and believe me theres plenty to see, but dont get stupid and you wont end up R.I.P!
South Africa needs laws like the one's in place in Singapore. New York City used to be like Johannesburg...Because of abandonment and a low tax base. The only way to solve the problem is start urban renewal projects.

There's nothing trashy about this city. I saw no trash on the streets at all. Your reference to Detroit means you're being a little racist, IMO. What about NYC? Most trashiest city here! And I'm American. So kindly STFU!! Oh- and Chicago ain't that great either
AtlantaITGirl 2 years ago
What are you smoking??? Metro Detroit is mostly white! Detroit isn't even close to being as bad as Johannesburg. Get with it South Africa is a dump since the ANC took over. And considering that Chicago is widely considered one of the cleanest and most beautiful cities in the world I think you have no credibility.
JohnRhysMusician 2 years ago 2
Metroit Detroit is mostly white and not as bad?? WTF are YOU smoking? Where do you live I'm curious. Nobody gives a dayum about Chicago either- Atlanta on the other hand IS one of the most beautiful. It yes it does look an America city, somewhere in south Florida to be exact. Quit holding America over their heads- how the hell you gonna say it's an insult to America. Get your heads out the clouds--arrogance
AtlantaITGirl 2 years ago
Atlanta is a nice city, but to say it is one of the most beautiful or one of America's greatest cities is quite an overstatement. Chicago on the other hand is a great city, and that is why more than 9 million people decide to live in Chicagoland. I personally live in Chicagoland in Winnetka, IL. I can see comparing Little Haiti to Johannesburg, but you have to understand that almost all of Johannesburg save some wealthy areas is a mess.

im sorry but i was born in johannesburg and lived there half my life and i absolutely love the country but johnrhysmusician is right, the streets are dirty, there's rubbish everywhere, there are gangs and robbers but that doesn't mean your going to be shot when you walk around the streets in the middle of the day. It is a beautiful place but it is not a clean city and i was born and raised around dark africans, im not a racist.

I spent a week there and had a great time. Don't scare people off with nonsense since with basic precautions the city should be fine. Enjoy the Apartheid Museum, Newtown, Melville (great for the evening(, the now-improving CBD and Constitution Hill (only during the day, Braamfontein and also head up to the bland suburbs of Sandton or Houghton to see the glitzy part. Soweto, of course, is also really interesting. Jo'Burg is a great city.

i have lived there from when i was born untill i was 7 (im 16 now) and in the 7 years of being there i never seen anything bad (exept a car jacking and a gun war between police and 3 other guys) i would say that Los Angeles is more dangerous and have you ever even been to Jo'Burg

What is the average price for a house in houghton?
prepschoolkid 2 years ago
Roughly between 5-25 million Rand, Those big houses in Houghton are some of the oldest houses in JHB, they are considered ' old money' whereas Sandton is considered 'new money'
goonerfromjhb 2 years ago
Which suburbs in Joburg have homes in the $200,000-$300,000 range. ( Im not sure how many rands that would be).
prepschoolkid 2 years ago
Thats between 1.8 to 2.5 million rand, you can still get a massive house anywhere for that price. I'm from the south of JHB, Mondeor, Meredale, Glenvista, Glenanda, Ridgeway are all decent areas.
In the North places like Rosebank, Parktown, Parkurst, Sandton, Houghton and further North places like Midrand or Randburg are full of good newly built properties

Public transit sucks in many SA cities so some township guys got the idea to transport people using vans(called taxis)) It is a huge business now. Joburg has now put the first leg on an express busway with stations throughout the city. High marks so far.

80SAFRIKAN 3 years ago
I disagree. sure Cape Town is incredibly beautiful but Johannesburg makes up its lack of evident landmarks and beauty with a vibrant atmosphere. The CBD during the days feels 100 times more African than Cape Town and suburbs like Melville are also a great venue for an evening fun. Not to mention it's great to visit solely due to its pivotal role in the recent history of South Africa and much more racially integrated than CT in my opinion. Very different, but both CT and Jo'Burg are great.

plenty out there who have the dreams, just not easy cause they dont have the means, some get needy others get greedy, a combination that'll kill you with speedy, and believe me theres plenty to see, but dont get stupid and you wont end up R.I.P!

South Africa needs laws like the one's in place in Singapore. New York City used to be like Johannesburg...Because of abandonment and a low tax base. The only way to solve the problem is start urban renewal projects.
