You should look at Waipio Bay, Big Island, Hawaii. Thats a 🦇💩😜 road!
I'm confused by the first segment who was the civilian who died on the road at 2:22 in the least safe way possible ?
The rest of this segment is about the Italian in the Ferrari. The drive was successful and he's still alive so it wasn't him?
Bolivias death road is not really dangerous anymore. It’s now just a tourist attraction.
Every one of your videos gives me the “something went wrong” error. Just yours, no one else’s.
Bro I thought u were Michael from Vsauce for a second 😭💀
no top gear clips from Bolivia?
Oh myyy 😮😮😮
The Yungas Road…yeah nah, thanks but I'll walk from here.
2:03 My house is at 5,900 feet in elevation. I ride my bicycle at 7,500+ feet in elevation. (I live in Colorado.)
1:40 Those are not jerseys; jerseys are made to a certain uniform size and shape. These are just Chinese concrete barriers.
So…did the Italian driver die on the road in China? Or did I miss something?
I-76 in Colorado. The autobahn of Colorado. Watch out for chupacabres!!!

2:13 sounds like you need a Halls cough drop. Maybe gargle some salt water. as far as dangerous goes, I’m thinking the ice road truckers in Northern Canada.
Yungas I'm on board with, but if "dangerous" is a criteria, there are roads in the Indian Himalaya and Pakistan Karakorum that are scary and challenging as hell. Would have liked to have seen them mentioned.
Unwatchable due to number of ads.
Regarding the Yungas Road: the fog makes the road a lot safer! Drivers will honk a few turns before they will approach you and they will approach at an appropriate speed. The guardrails weren’t there in 2005, as wasn’t the new road. With fog however you may have a visibility of about 10 meters. It’s a lot less dangerous to fall into a ravine of only 10 meters deep than it is to fall into a ravine of 1000 meters deep. As will be the case with clear visibility. That alone makes it a lot safer to cycle on the road in the fog.
Also the fog makes the roadside wider. You see, if you can see a cliff of 1000 meters deep right next to you, you will keep a certain distance from the cliffside. Thereby making the roadside narrower. That’s not very handy when there’s a big wide truck trying to pass you. In the fog you could be less inclined to keep the same distance from the cliffside. As the part of the cliff that you can see is only 10 meters deep. Therefore you will get closer to the cliffside, making the road wider for others to pass.
I’ve been told that the reason for driving left is so that the crops from the jungle will be transported on the safer mountain side, so that it’s more probable that empty trucks driving back from the capital of La Paz to the jungle will fall into the ravine. Which of course is less bad than driving a fully loaded truck off the road.
I had also been told back in 2005 that only 1 rescue mission had been carried out so far. Some rich Yankee (an American from the US of A) fell into the ravine, so a rescue mission was carried out. After 1 full day of abseiling around 1000 meters the rescuers camped the whole week in the ravine. During their hikes into the jungle it became clear why wearing a bicycle helmet is so important as a tourist: by keeping your teeth intact, it will be easier to identify who you are once you’ve fall into the ravine. The rescue mission ended with a full day of climbing back 1000 meters back out of the ravine. The Yankee for which the rescue mission was carried out, was never seen again however.
Oh, and by the way. Most touristy companies which offer the bike ride down the road make it very easy and safe for you. You don’t have to ride around 1000 meters of altitude up the mountain, as they will drive you to ‘la cumbre’ (the mountain pass). Then they will unload a luxury mountainbike for you, with disc brakes and suspension and all of that. Also you can ride without any camping gear, as at the end of the day they will pick you back up all the way down in Coroico. So: no cycling up a pass, great brakes, the luxury of suspension and no extra luggage to carry on the bike. Easy-peasy!
Jungo road near the Black Rock desert is pretty gnarly and remote as well. Better have 4 spares with you if you attempt that one. And help is VERY far off.
Roads!
If a community is taking or has taken steps to not have to use (or at least use less) a dangerous road because that road is so dangerous, then it's safe to say that the road is extremely dangerous even if it is used less than it previously was.

Why are your glasses melting? Love the videos! 😊
Come on guys… I thought you were above using fake pictures as clickbait.
The scariest thing about many of these dangerous roads is that a lot of them are in mountainous areas earthquake prone regions.

What is that t-shirt, Simon? Mate; do you not own a mirror? Wow
6000 years? Did God say 'let there be roads" in Genesis too?
Ask Kent, he'll tell ya
Shout out 2 Ken Block RIP 😢 CLIMBKHANA 2 Tienman Mtn.
I thought the lucky number in china was 8?
Most of these roads should be replaced by tunnels
Why are you using Istanbul's Galleta tower as your illustration as a world's dangerous road?
I know its a bit steep up to the new city but its not a death road unless you buy a kebab and try and run off without paying 😅😅😅

Honourable mention: Tanami Road, Northern Territory/Western Australia (State Route 5). You would need a 4WD car or heavier and it takes two days to traverse this desert crossing. The road can get corrugated and if you're not careful, the corrugations will rip your vehicle apart and getting stranded in that part of Australia is practically a death sentence without a satellite phone.
so nothing about the guy that died on the 99 bends to heaven road but instead you talk about the italian that lived by averaging1km per minute?
