Anyone see the Bangkok episode of Don't Drive Here? I can't find it online to link here. I found myself yelling at the TV. The host spends a large portion of the episode taking insane risks through Bangkok traffic on mopeds & scooters without any training or experience. The final portion involved him racing/filtering through traffic trying to keep up with a local professional.

Spoiler Alert: He crashes. Or as he put it: he had no choice but to lay her down.

At least he was wearing a loose skateboard helmet throughout. Safety first!
 
Subscribed. This will be another thread I can sink my teeth into. Right off the hop I don't like how other people drive. And it goes downhill from there.
 
I found it ironic that he was preaching to other's to wear a helmet while he wore a suspect helmet at best. All of this while he had no jacket, no gloves, or any other protective gear whatsoever.

I enjoyed both the episodes I have seen so far. Then again, I was a fan of his work on Canada's Worst Driver and Canada's Worst Handyman.
 
I found this episode while flipping through the channels this morning.
Kinda remember this guy from Canada's Worst Driver series.

I was surprised how softly he landed in his crash. Not even a scratch. Fell right onto his palms!
It felt staged to me.

P.S. Tuk-tuk's gear shifter is right between driver's legs! LMAO :D
 
This show is awesome, only saw the Dehli one so far.
 
Show was funny as hell. In some places they are crazy, which is the premise of the show.

I am interested in seeing the rest of the episodes
 
Someone able to post the episodes ? Can't find them, which doesn't mean much. Myself and computers do not get along!
 
There's a reason so many people die every day in the countries featured. Never witnessed such foolishness before.
 
There are no rules in that country based on what he was saying, no one really follows them. The street lights are managed by by a guy in a booth. All riders filter to the front at a red light and mad scramble when the lights turn green. The mass transit system there is a joke and the government gave people a $3k credit to buy a car rather than putting it back in to the system.
