I really like Johannesburg. There are some really really terrible things happening but most people are fantastic warm and hospitable but medium size minortiy spoil for everyone.
To complain about the traffic and saying the country is going down the toilet is a dumb comment. Have you ever been to London? I took me an hour to get out of my street once. and the average travelling speed of traffic is 6 miles an hour.
real Jo'burg in GREAT video ...Jozi z even worse.try to be proudly joburguer and see lovely 'Joburgess' videos includes imitations ,improvisations n impersonations - she's so lovely
I think we exagerate a lot our selves at times because most of our problems are there in other cities all over the world.. They just choose not to talk about it..its unfortunate we have been trapped by the "consesus" of what Africa should be and not what it actualy is..take away the politics and youl see for your self ... No place in the world is a perfect haven...Our culture is so rich it makes the world a shrinking amoeba.... I love You Joburg. *proud Joburger*
our jhb difers a lot from Westclif to hillbro from Melville to Alexandra from Parktown to Newton- Barcelona is far beter for living but not for doing buzinezz
Ha ha his interesting take on the facts a little funny film puts a bit of persective on South Africa and Johannesburg in particular and some of the origins of the "bull" that causes some of the problems for Southern African politics nowadays
funny thing is my wife and daughter are the happy people at 4 46 in the clip ,that was till my wife was hijacked a couple of weeks after the photo was taken ,we now live in London as a result.It is a fantastic expose ,pity it is so true

Amazing video, makes me want to go to Joburg so bad.. Can you guys please tell me what the name of the first song is (the one that starts at 2:07 or maybe earlier)?
@76special sure there is. lots of positive stuff. lots and lots of shaky stuff too of course but we're always hopeful that we're moving in the right direction.
Okay. That's the first time in a long time I felt like, "Hey, living in Joburg is cool!" You have captured the Joburg headspace with daring and precision and its funny too! What an awesome piece. :)
Loved this video. I went to Joburg in Sept with my South African girlfriend. Obviously I heard all the stories before but to anyone thinking of going I reccommend it. I loved the place, the people, ok so there are places like Hillbrow but unless you want to go buy drugs or fuck a rough prostitute then you dont need to go there!. I felt safer there thank walking in London...ps loved it so much we are moving there to work for a year in Dec. Lol loved the Home and Away bit at the end! cheers
Brilliant teaser, would like to see the finished version. The way you described Jozi (liked your comparison of that nickname with "Tilly"!) really reminded me of living in inner London. All those mixed emotions...but never a dull moment I guess.
Never been to Jozi but videos like this make me want to, despite my better judgment lol:-)
is part of what makes us so crazy from living here the fact that every so often we have to listen to you sing???!!! HA. bring it on baby there's nothing cooler than a cool film about the place you live and love.
one of the good things in Jo'burg: my boyfriend... :)
