So let me know what you guys think of thisΒ system down below seriously it’s incredibleΒ Β not many places in the world that you canΒ actually get your teeth worked on on a streetΒ Β and on this street there’s literally like umΒ yeah so much going on I mean people sellingΒ Β
Uh mechanic parts all kinds of street food andΒ of course the street dentist hey Brad I got aΒ Β question for you man what are your thoughts onΒ the street dentist I mean coming from the US asΒ Β
Myself like it’s something that we’ve never seenΒ before huh oh no never I get afraid just at theΒ Β normal dentist yeah I I don’t think I could sitΒ down here personally but a lot of respect to itΒ Β
Now he was telling us earlier that he does toothΒ removal for 400 uh which is like four bucks andΒ Β I think he said that he can take care of yourΒ wisdom teeth all four for $600 so $6 to getΒ Β
All four remov I don’t know that’s a lot of bangΒ for your buck though if you ask me I think I’llΒ Β stick to pay the costly the costly dental billsΒ though back home right same same I don’t knowΒ Β
Thank God for insurance because the dentist doesΒ get extremely expensive now earlier while we wereΒ Β out here during the day somebody actually toldΒ us that this is where the people that don’t haveΒ Β a lot of money com to the denst obviously thisΒ isn’t where everybody from Bangladesh gets theirΒ Β
Teeth done there’s real high-end professionalΒ dental places everywhere guys this is just oneΒ Β example of a job that takes place on the streetΒ that a lot of people have to do yeah and it’sΒ Β interesting CU there’s a lot of people like inΒ line like this man’s going to be incredibly busyΒ Β
When we came by earlier today there was no oneΒ here and we asked I was trying to pay people toΒ Β get their teeth fixed if they needed them I wasΒ like I’ll pay for anybody to get their teeth fixΒ Β
But no one actually wanted to get their teethΒ fix at the time but man super cool yeah amazingΒ Β I’ve never seen anything like this okay so rightΒ now the dentist took a break to buy us some teaΒ Β
He he knew we liked the tea earlier huh the CH soΒ right now he got a new patients we’re going to seeΒ Β exactly how this process works guys I’m going toΒ try and not talk too much and just let him do his thing Very cool huh oh so he does use a plastic bag as a glove [Music] 0:06:59.400,1193:02:47.295 [Music] Med Media so we ended up leaving the street dentist becauseΒ man they got a little bit bothered by me filmingΒ Β but to be honest with you guys I didn’t just walkΒ up and film we talked to him earlier today and IΒ Β
Even paid the man I gave him a lot of moneyΒ I’m not going to tell you guys how much cuzΒ Β I don’t need you guys or anybody getting inΒ trouble but I paid the man well I gave him aΒ Β
Lot of money to sit there and make the videoΒ and he was super cool about it I think thatΒ Β maybe the patients got bothered but I told himΒ that I would even compensate the patience so IΒ Β
Don’t know what the problem was there was a bunchΒ of miscommunication but man it ended up gettingΒ Β very like strange and like they kept asking usΒ if we were dentists if we were doctors he keptΒ Β sending me in Google Translate like am I doingΒ this right I don’t know maybe he thought thatΒ Β
We were like filming to like talk mess aboutΒ it but seriously it’s just very interestingΒ Β to us and I have nothing but respect for thatΒ man like I think it’s cool I there’s no doubtΒ Β in my mind that he’s super educated and knowsΒ exactly what he’s doing I just have never seenΒ Β
That before so um yeah I guess he took it theΒ wrong way afterwards but man I paid the manΒ Β like a lot of money for that for the permissionΒ to actually do that and right now as you’re wereΒ Β
Walking we actually came across another areaΒ the last clip you saw where there was like aΒ Β man selling spiritual medicine and then like someΒ local kids were like bro don’t believe this it’sΒ Β all brainwashing stuff but like yeah there’s a lotΒ of like funky little things um going on and it’sΒ Β
