Anyone else watching these shows? I fucking love gold rush I hope they kill it this year but you never know since their all retarded. Also this new show about Africa is fucking epic. Those guys are mega badasses. Makes me really hate africa with even more of a passion. Anyways hope those guys do work also. Epic friday night television
Anyways, gold rush is awesome, so is Bering sea gold. Definitely stoked on the new jungle series, what they're dealing with in Africa looks mad scetch! Looking forward to see how the they do!
And after taking some mining engineering classes for my major, I realize how fucking stupid these guys are. That being said, if I had a chance to work for them when I graduate, I would in a heartbeat.
Thats my bad, I dont necessarily hate Africa, but more the lawless places that exist there. Watching that show made me so angry because those were two honest dudes who fell into some trouble, and were doing whatever it took to get out. Granted, they were dumb for attempting to gold mine in Africa. But the fact that the chinese were able to steal there claims, threaten them with guns, etc with no authority intervention just pissed me off so much. I hate the people who live in africa as a whole, straight dirtbags for what they did to those guys, granted they can do that type of thing and get away with it there. Africa is such a dump besides a select few places. There is an abundance of resources that could be gained there, but are unattainable beuase of the ridiculous animal behavior exhibited by people there.
but its very hard for african countries to create legal systems and even less possible to maintain them, when you think about the outside interventions over the last few hundred years. from colonialization to globalisation, these people never really had a chance
I 100% understand this and agree that its part of the problem. These people have been abused over hundreds of years and have resorted to this rediculous behavior in order to survive. Those two dudes were idiots for going there to mine gold. On the other hand, why we send so much aid to a place that isn't getting better blows my mind
