Torkham Gate Border towards Pakistan

I'm at the border between Afghanistan and Pakistan at the foot of the Khyber Pass, filming towards Pakistani side. I am standing about 6 feet from the Durand Line where there is a low concrete wall and large metal gate but there isn't much difficulty for people to go back and forth. The green building on the right is the the Pakistan Border Guard post and the gringo with the rifle has his right foot just about on the Durand Line. The blurry green sign in the distance on the left says "Welcome to Pakistan". Many people hire a shared taxi car to bring them to the border on one side, walk across, then get into another shared taxi car on the other side. It's between a 0.5 to 1km walk and you can hire men to push you, your children, and cargo across the border area in those wagons (good shot at the very end of clip).
