Risking it all - Pakistan : Al Jazeera

[Malik Usman]

He slapped the kid for listening to Alka Yagnik. Nothing unusual.

And what about Indian listening to Rahet Fateh Ali Khan, Atif Alsam, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Mehndi Hassan, Ghulam Ali etc. etc. etc.

Ummmm, hi.....

Dont get me wrong, i like AJE for the most part. But this isnt Al Jazeera's report. They just copied oh about 85-90% of the idea from ''Deadliest Journeys'' (including footage) and are painting it as their own.


I've been on the Pass, last time was in 2006. Had an oldschool Landcruiser with twin fuel tanks, a lot of music and some good times. It's a lot like parts of Bolivia. High heights, thin oxygen supply at many parts, and unpredictable terrain. I'll have to find my old hard-drive so I can upload some pictures. I have a few on Pak-Wheels website.



anyyyways. . .

Thanks for the info. I had seen some clips of IRT - Deadliest Roads from History channel. Only difference I think is that the team drives the truck. And a bit dramatized.

This is some scary stuff.

This is some scary stuff.

Have one banana with a cup of tea, and you will not feel scared for 13 minutes. Free advice.





Note: Not tried personally.

What city was that at 1:14? Seemed like Badshahi mosque in Lahore to me....

Dont know, a random mosque just to show it as exotic place. Definitely not near himalayan region. The truck were in manali-leh route I think.
