The Mauritanian Railway, one of the world's longest and heaviest train in the world transports iron ore from a remote mining town in Mauritania to a coastal city cutting through the Sahara Desert. The ride lasts anywhere between 19-30 hours and a few brave locals use it to travel back and forth with supplies. The dangerous trek leads to several unfortunate deaths every year as people fall off the train. Thomas and his friend Drew Binsky attempt to find this train and embark on the dangerous journey through the Sahara.
Thank you to Drew Binsky for coming with me and guiding me through how to travel in this part of the world! Check out his channel here:

Thank you to our local friend Med for some of the b-roll shots of the train.

@greninja warrior13 A lot of the terrorist flee from Afghanistan and reside near the Afghanistan-Pakistan border. I've been to Pakistan 4-5 times (probably spent 8-10 months in the country) now and no attacks happened.

I'm gonna be real. This isn't as impressive as they act like it is. Like ok, you got onto a train and we're able to stay on it for 20 hours and live. Who cares?

The red haired dude is very disrespectful.. like pointing out the missing door panels and complaining about sleeping situations. You are on the poorest continent and are surprised at the squalor. I recommend he not do these types of things alone without a film crew.

The iron ore in the train you are riding in came from an iron ore mine that had no occupational health and safety administration to look after the miners. And the miners made no money. Now that is Straight up adventure.

This is not that crazy I feel like, seems like the locals do this on the reg. Not that deadly either, really just a video to show how extremely different life is like in other parts of the world. If you lived there you probably would ride it eventually and think its nothing. Even homeboy was trippin about the taxi door not having a handle like what did you expect, this is how people live

Something seems fishy about two dudes on a train with cameras and battery’s and 20+ hours not moving. And drones flying. Ya know. It’s hard to keep a GoPro on for 2 hours on battery alone.

You talk about comfort zone. If I take away your money and or credit debit card will you still be outside your comfort zone. Also if you lived there and not get on in the next plane to prove that you have achived something in life. Are you comfortable taking a shit. Outside your comfort zone.

I def woulda braught a ventilator for sleeping. or some kinda n95 to make sure i didnt inhale too much ore and dust.

The conductor would 100% notice these dudes on the train. Especially with the drone. But I guess he just doesn’t give af.

Bro, at the time when you guys hoped on and started to scream your heart out with all these "we did it" and "our journey has just begun" I envied you, but not out of being a jealous dick, but because I know the taste of this feeling having hitchhiked half of Asia. I'm on my way now to save up $$ and start it all over again next year. I also wish to add that videos like yours give the audience, at least this adventurous part, the feeling of "there's more to life". Having said this, I wish you guys all the best, more crazy ideas, full bags of motivation and a bunch of good people on your way. Just stay positive, but I guess you already know that :) See you on the way! 💥
