 Welcome to Victoria Falls, the adventure capital of Africa. What? Call this city adventurous capital of Africa, but listen, I am not adventurous. I travel within Africa to admire the beauty of the continent and I have only one word to describe this city, paradise. It's like it's raining, but it's not raining, it's just the water splashing down, then coming up like a smoke. Yes, yes. Coming from Ghana, Zimbabwe was just Harare, that's all I knew. I don't know about you, do you know any other city apart from the popular Harare that we all know? But hey, there's more to Zimbabwe. I was scrolling through my messages on Instagram when I saw this guy right here, his name is Ritoka, your number one plug in Vic Falls, told me about a city that I never knew. After researching about this beautiful city, I was so excited to the extent that I wish I was a magician that day, just to teleport myself and immerse my beautiful body inside the beautiful Vic Falls. If you ever want to drive in Zimbabwe from Harare to Vic Falls, know that Zimbabwe got you covered because the country got one of the best roads that I've ever used in so many countries that I've been to. But hey, I couldn't wait. So I had to book my ticket that evening and that is when FastJet came in. Quick one, FastJet is an award-winning value airline in Zimbabwe. They fly domestically, so imagine if you're in Harare and you want to go to Bulawai, you know that they got you covered. If you want to go to Vic Falls, you are definitely covered. But if you also want to fly internationally, FastJet got you covered. You can fly from Harare to Johannesburg or even Johannesburg to Vic Falls. I mean, FastJet is fast. We arrived very late in Vic Falls and to my surprise, the Bano Hotel came through for us. They hosted me and my entire team in this beautiful resort. And for the very first time, I slept so comfortably like a baby and I woke up very well rested in a magical paradise. Zimbabwe is not perfect, but indeed Zimbabwe is not what I expected. Welcome to the beautiful Zimbabwe, where we pride ourselves with hospitality and the tourism hub, the wonderful, majestic Victoria Falls. Victoria Falls is the home of the Zambiezi, the Moasi Oyatsunya, the smoke that standers and we're so happy and proud to have you here with us. We're super excited to take you on a journey as you experience the wonderful nature of Victoria Falls. I do hope you get to enjoy the big five, hopefully, and of course the majestic showers from the Zambiezi and of course the beautiful women and friendly people all together. You all know about the majestic Victoria Falls, but do you know the source of this beauty? Hi guys, welcome to the Zambiezi, this is the Zambiezi River. We are in Victoria Falls and right across is the Livingstone. So this is Africa's fourth longest river after the Nile, Niger and the Congo. This is about 2,600 kilometers. It starts all the way in northern Zambia, right? Goes through Angola, comes through the border between Botswana, Zimbabwe, Zambia and Namibia, which is the quadra point where four countries meet. Then comes all the way down, there's some nice lodges as you come down to where we are right now, which is a kilometer from the smoke that thunders the Mosio Yatunya. So this is a beautiful river, at the Mosio Yatunya it's just over half way between the source and the Indian Ocean where it goes out. From here it goes all the way through Kariba, the largest man-made lake on the planet. Then it goes further Manapuz, Kanyemba, goes to Mozambique, then it goes all the way to the Indian Ocean. Have you seen any of them? This is indeed the smoke that really thunders. In Zimbabwe, in Zambia, they have the same name that they call it, Mosio Yatunya. It makes me feel like God took his time to create the beautiful bro, to share my excitement with you all. Wow! Yatunya. Yeah man, you know what, more than the rainbows, if you come here when the moon is full, you can see moonbows. Wow! Yes, breathtaking, I know, I know. So this is the Victoria Falls guys, it fixes in 2.1 million liters per second, up to 2.1 million liters per second, the biggest shield of all in the water in the world. God is, God is amazing, Africa is beautiful man. God is amazing and I'm gonna repeat again. When God was creating the world, he made sure that everything is in Africa. So for you to partake and be part of the world, you need to come to Africa, civilization started in Africa whether they like it or not, and this is why you can find sections on the continent of Africa, bro. And just like water, you know, you've got a plug when you come to this part of the world man, root talker, your boy, this is what we do, this is what we do man, welcome, welcome, welcome, this is my city, I was born here, I can't get enough of this, I can't get enough of it. All I wanna say is that, welcome to Morsi Oyaduna. Listen, Zimbabwe is a hidden gem. Let me tell you something, before you die, yeah, take it upon yourself, book that flight ticket and come visit Zimbabwe, look at that beautiful sunset right on my face, you can only get this in Africa, you can't get this anywhere, I mean, sunset together with the river and people are busy cruising on the river but Africans are saying that you cannot have fun in Africa, it's everything okay with us, sorry, I need to shout because whatever I'm saying and whatever I'm saying, it's coming straight from the heart, it's like, I mean, the spirit, just to let you know that it's a blessing to be from Zimbabwe, it's a blessing to come from a place like this and it's time for us to appreciate it, I'm gonna tell every African today, if you have ever booked a ticket to go to Dubai, to go to Europe for vacation on behalf of Zimbabwe's, cancel it, I'll pay for your ticket, just come and experience this beauty, I don't know why man, I hardly do this but this is the only country that anytime I wanna talk about a country, I start crying because we never had any good thing about Zimbabwe, they lied to us and they've done a great job in a way that even Zimbabwe themselves are not willing to tell good stories about their country, I mean some of you are even saying I've been paid, which means that I get paid in every country that I go to, everything that I'm doing in this country, I'm using my own money to tell you guys that it's time to explore your own country, go out there, go live your life, go learn something new and make sure you explore and whenever you explore your own country, don't forget the almighty Zambiazi River, there's a lot you can do in here but the only thing you cannot do here is to swim in this river, let me know what you think after seeing this because I don't think the camera is doing justice to what my naked eyes is saying, God bless Africa, God bless Zimbabwe and God bless this city, sorry, thank you, I know you all are getting emotional, don't be emotional, what am I can be so emotional but let me educate you a bit about Victoria Falls, because I know most of you are wondering why the name Victoria, even me I was mad when I got to know that Mosi Onyatunya has another name which is called Victoria Falls, which is even more famous than the actual name of the falls, this is how the falls started this is David Livingstone, he's a Scottish guy who traveled to the Victoria Falls in 1855 so he was basically a storyteller, a travel blogger if you want to call it, if you are not familiar with him, so he was the first person from outside Africa to see the falls or to be recorded to see the falls, so he's the one who basically wrote about the falls and told the rest of the world the falls I know some people say he discovered the falls but that's not sexually correct when he visited in 1855, he was a guest of the local chief and he was taken around by a guide or a guy who was known as Rai Kani, he's actually a boat named after the guy so in 1855 he was assigned a royal aid, as you would want to call it, who took him around and that's the person who took him to this particular place this place was like a monument, a sacred monument for the local community so they took him here because apparently when he came the queen mother was ill I'm not sure if it was malaria or another disease and David Livingstone had medicine that helped the queen mother, so obviously King then said I'll give you royal treatment and what not so that's how we got to see the falls and that's how some people claim that he discovered the falls but I can tell you that... was that the person who discovered the falls? Of course not, he didn't discover the falls I mean Rai Kani showed him here, showed him this place this was already a local monument and before that, before the Lord Zivitonga came here, the Sen people there's archaeological evidence that indicates that the Sen also inhabited this part of the place so he was by no means the first person to see the falls I think we need to start storytelling our own stories as after 10 because when you go to places like this and you see a monument like this celebrating the colonizer for me, it's kind of sad because I've been to Livingston the Sambia side, so that place is called Livingston and the statue is there claiming that he discovered it and I have been to Victoria Falls even I don't know why this place is called Victoria but yeah, that's what it is, this is Africa I can't wait to be the leader of the Fortress I'll make sure I'll change everything man I'm sorry, forgive me but I'll still change it and since he was the first European to see the falls he tricked the whole world that hey, I discovered a new falls in Africa let me put the reigning queen's name on it hence the name Victoria Falls but if you go to the neighboring country which is Zambia there is a city in there called Livingston which is also the name of the same guy claiming that he discovered the falls let's do this in the comments section let me know if you think the name Victoria Falls needs to be changed I mean personally, I think Africans got a lot of mental revolution work to do because we can't be having things in Africa named after our colonizers people that killed our ancestors you know what, that's another conversation for another day Victoria Falls is not just the falls but this beautiful falls is also a city I have traveled so many cities across Africa and I must confess that this is the smallest city I've ever come across what's the population of this city? my guy who are plenty, 40,000 people come on I'm telling you, I'm serious no, no way, 40,000 people yes that's a lot of people no why? we are the people, we are the 40,000 people the 40,000 people some of them are here in town, some of them are at work some of them are at the Soka stadium watching Soka but most people live... I'm so sorry bro hi, how are you? good, good, how are you? good, I saw your reaction, it's like you watch my videos maybe yeah, I do watch you on YouTube are you from Big Falls? yes, I'm from Big Falls I saw your video when you were coming into Zim and your challenge is in the border there wow and you were complaining that you don't want that happening in African countries thank you you know what, since you are from Big Falls I'm posting this video on YouTube tell me what you think I need to know about Big Falls or the world needs to know about Big Falls they need to know that Big Falls is actually a good town a good place to relax good space to rethink about life and find new dynamics of life you see the foes, you see the animals, you see the good people it's a good place, they should come and see and experience for themselves there's 40,000 people here, this guy does it for you yeah, he's too big to touch that amount I can count on the number of people here and there are no more than 1,000 I'll take you to Chinatima and say 1,000 people let's go to Chinatima tell me about your city the city of Big Falls it's a beautiful small city where everyone knows everyone everyone knows everyone's business we love them for us so we are a tight community next Victoria Falls special is the diversity in our culture firstly housed by the Tonga people now Victoria Falls carries over 5 different people with 5 different languages and cultures the Tonga, the Nambia, the Leia, the Nyanjas, the Ndevelas, the Shornas we are all here living in harmony loving each other, being friendly with one another and helping ourselves build each other not only just as Zimbabweans but as Africans as a whole this is the exact bridge that separated the two countries Zimbabwe and Zambia I was here 2 years ago I was at the Zambian side flying my drone on top of Victoria Falls and I saw this same bridge that separated the two countries so I wanted to get a shot just to let you all know that this bridge is so important to the people of Zambia and Zimbabwe but when I was flying my drone I had low battery and my drone landed in Zimbabwe so I had to come here to get my drone man listen I don't know why Africans like this so going to Zambia they say you need a passport going to Zimbabwe you also need a passport but I have my brother here and I want him to tell us more about this bridge my brother get closer what can you tell us about this bridge yeah this bridge man it's a feat of engineering massive engineering it's a gem in this part of the world this bridge was built in 1905 you know our brother Zambia Zimbabwe one people but we needed something to connect us to one we tried so you see the car passing it's current ghost where Zimbabwe and the bridge was shaking man I felt like I was falling down it's awesome yeah it's physics it's part of the suspension thing okay I don't remember much from class but anyway this bridge was built in 1905 right so what happened before it was successfully completed they brought in the structure from Europe it was assembled here and it didn't come together so there was an error with the measurements so they had to go back to the drawing make adjustments and put it back out so it took quite a few years to build this and in 1905 it was completed and what you see right over there and maybe I'll show you when you get a chance that hotel that's the oldest hotel in Victoria Falls and when the bridge was built this was the campsite where the workers that were working on this bridge that's where they were staying so when the world got to know about the Victoria Falls then guys were like why not go to Zambia so that hotel has hosted celebrities in Elizabeth a million years there's an interesting story I need an interview with this guy I'm close you need to hold this I'll keep you know I can't be holding this welcome to Zambia thank you so much I'm so glad you never said welcome to Zambia we are in Zimbabwe you are entering Zambia we just went to Zambia we are in Zambia but I'm Zimbabwe at this point we can stand like this but if you turn up your YouTube seriously this guy's YouTube he has one million followers I'm serious literally he speaks Chinese literally I know almost everything about him what's up I came alone man how is Zimbabwe Zimbabwe has been awesome bro it's been 10 days I'm really enjoying it have you been to Arari?
