1
This is me on the longest sleeper train in India.
2
Bin!
3
In the bin!
4
And let me tell you, it was the longest four days of my life.
5
There's just way too many people for one carriage.
6
Okay, so the train is called the Vivek Express, the longest train in India, which is 74 hours and 45 minutes long.
7
That is mental.
8
It starts at the top right of India and makes it all the way down to right at the bottom.
9
We're just trying to get a ticket on this train.
10
It's incredibly hard.
11
Like every ticket is booked up.
12
I mean, it's the most populated country on the planet, so I guess that makes sense.
13
After a bit of research, however...
14
Okay, I have eventually found tickets.
15
The cheapest ticket on this train for three and a half days is 1 ,310 rupees.
16
What is that in pounds?
17
10 pound 20 for three and a bit days on a train.
18
So I've booked the ticket.
19
Okay, we're off to India.
20
Vivek Express, here we come.
21
I first got a flight from England to Delhi.
22
It is hot.
23
Any advice for the train? Be careful.
24
Keep eyes on your bags.
25
They would not be able to survive that.
26
It's not gonna be good.
27
I mean, I would not wake up.
28
I slept over that night and then the next morning I had to get a flight from Delhi to Dibragar, which is the start of the train journey.
29
We have landed in Dibragar.
30
I got there at 2pm and the train left at half seven that night.
31
We're going on the Vivek Express.
32
Have you heard of it?
33
Yes.
34
Paper gloves.
35
Glass in Ottawa.
36
There is too much hot.
37
CPR belongings safe.
38
It's very important.
39
Yeah.
40
out getting in going out very busy I don't travel with train oh why don't you travel with train
41
because I scare just get
42
These locals were saying backed up wide researched a few nights before leaving Vivek Express India's longest train
43
and probably the Filthiest to had so many cockroaches crawling around me in
44
that train opinion on Vivek Express Top comment do not travel in sleeper
45
and I'm traveling in sleeper I'm not gonna judge anything until I've tried it myself The time has come.
46
We are at Dibragar station, which is the start of our journey.
47
75 hours on an Indian train to the other side of the country.
48
I'm quite excited.
49
I'll be honest, I'm quite excited.
50
Let's fucking do it.
51
This is the train.
52
This is the train that we're spending the next three days on.
53
I was getting a lot of funny looks at the station and people
54
Some people saying it was the first time they'd seen a white person.
55
I'm starting my journey here on sleeper class.
56
Now sleeper is the cheapest and lowest class on the train.
57
But there are two other classes, middle and upper.
58
Now I've purchased a ticket for all three and in this video every 24 hours I will move up the class.
59
We're boarding.
60
Thank you, it's dark in here.
61
I made my way to my assigned bed.
62
It is very dark in here.
63
This is me.
64
Amazing.
65
Let me give you a little room tour.
66
We've got a plug, a window which fully opens up.
67
And then the bed itself which it did the job but it was quite thin and not much space.
68
The seats have a bit of padding as well which is brilliant.
69
After only like two minutes on this train though I was already sweating.
70
See there's no air con in this carriage, just some fans. And off we go. was genuinely a vibe.
71
The wind blowing onto me looking at the views of India, the fair amount of space.
72
I'm not complaining right now.
73
While it's quiet, I'm gonna give you a little tour of the carriage.
74
There are toilets at the end of each corridor.
75
This is the toilet.
76
Nice dick drawn on the toilet.
77
Oh, two dicks.
78
Oh, three dicks.
79
And as I walk back to my seat, oh my f*ing god.
80
The door is just wide open as the train's moving.
81
Now as the journey went on the train started getting a bit busier.
82
Now this was Rumi who I was technically sharing a bed with on the train.
83
How many hours are you on the train?
84
You understand?
85
No. Now as we were kind of bunk mates I didn't want it to be awkward but and she couldn't speak mine.
86
I will take your photo.
87
Yes, no problem.
88
But despite not being able to communicate, we got on fine.
89
Now as the journey went on, I got a little bit peckish. Can I buy?
90
Is it good?
91
Yes.
92
Rumi, you want one?
93
No?
94
No. 120 rupees.
95
How much?
96
120. 120.
97
Now, 120 rupees is only 93 pence.
98
She looks pretty good.
99
That is good.
100
I ate a bit of a meal but it's too hot I can't eat.
101
Where's the bin?
102
The bin?
103
This is out for you.
104
Look at that.
105
You want me to chuck it out the window?
106
No problem.
107
You just chuck this over there?
108
No, no, no. No, I can't do that.
109
That's littering.
110
That's not good.
111
Now at the end of the carriage there was actually a bin.
112
But what's What shocked me is no one on the train used it.
113
I mean even the cleaners who were employed on the train were just chucking bottles out the window.
114
Do you have a bin for this?
115
Buy it?
116
Do you want to buy it?
117
No go.
118
Alright.
119
It was honestly pretty horrible to see.
120
We'll go to sleep in the air.
121
Sleep up there?
122
Okay.
123
I thought I was on the bottom, turns out I was on the top bunk.
124
I could tell Remy was gassed, that was f*ing off.
125
This is pretty sick.
126
Definitely more private up here, but it's a lot hotter because I don't have the breeze of the windows now.
127
Now as it got to about midnight, the lights switched off.
128
I'm gonna try and get some sleep.
129
But honestly, it was one of the worst sleeps I've ever had.
130
I was tossing and turning all night, it was blazing hot.
131
That is going to be one of the worst night's sleep to ever have.
132
It doesn't really get quiet on the train.
133
There's no air con in here.
134
So I'm just sweating my tits off.
135
And then at like half three in the morning, a family gets on the train.
136
The family's just got on half three in the morning.
137
Non -stop walking through the carriages were people selling food.
138
How much?
139
Seven piz.
140
39 p for seven bananas I wasn't complaining at that.
141
Slowly but surely the train started getting a lot busier.
142
It is boiling in there.
143
There was no showers on the train so I washed myself with baby wipes and changed into a fresh t -shirt.
144
I'm still feeling so dirty.
145
And the train got even busier.
146
Look how busy the train.
147
It's getting low.
148
It started getting to the point where people came onto my bed.
149
What's your name?
150
I'm Joe.
151
Where are you from?
152
India.
153
With it being 40 degrees outside and the train being this packed with no aircon, I was just a mess.
154
I hated it.
155
You throw it out the window.
156
Is that popular here?
157
Is everyone does that?
158
Yes, yes.
159
Hello, good boy.
160
I was honestly just waiting for the 24 hour mark so I could move up to the next class.
161
It's getting hot, it's getting sweaty, the smell is getting really bad.
162
Yeah, I'm very much looking forward to moving up to the next class.
163
You good?
164
Look, the ticket was £10 so I really couldn't complain but it just was not as you can expect a nice experience.
165
It was now time to move to the next class.
166
I packed my belongings away and headed out of sleeper.
167
The seat that I'm walking to now is 3 ,180 rupees.
168
That is £24 .93.
169
And as I walked into this new carriage, already it was a lot quieter.
170
I mean already this is so much nicer.
171
There's air con.
172
How are you doing?
173
You good?
174
This is very nice in here.
175
Very nice.
176
Seat 71 3A? Is this?
177
This is the reserve seat.
178
Yeah, I have a reservation.
179
After having no idea where I was, eventually someone showed me to my seat.
180
This is the seat.
181
Turns out I was sharing.
182
Hello.
183
What's your name?
184
I'm Joe.
185
Joel.
186
Joe.
187
Joe.
188
We're sharing a bed tonight by the looks of it.
189
I didn't realise I was sharing a bed, but it's fine.
190
We've got a aircon.
191
It's not packed full of people.
192
How much I was dying in there this sacrifice i would say is worth it maybe
193
that was just me coping
194
but honestly i was just trying to stay positive is it okay
195
if i just film some stuff on my youtube yeah thank you
196
so i am in
197
that the shism is there there is less room than the other one pillow
198
and a blanket
199
which we didn't have before the toilets were a slight improvement they actually had a toilet now so i freshened up
200
But the bed was so thin and there was no space and honestly it was another really bad sleep, just tossing and turning the entire night.
201
The last two nights I'd hardly slept so I tried to get a few hours in during the day
202
They want to see your eyes, they want to see your eyes.
203
Your eyes are very pretty.
204
Ah, thank you.
205
England people have pretty eyes, no?
206
England people have pretty eyes.
207
I agree with that, yeah.
208
For some reason, they were obsessed with my eyes.
209
And then he started investigating my legs.
210
You have white hair, Nazi white hair.
211
But India is black.
212
They're gold.
213
Pure gold.
214
shows that this train went through some of the most isolated parts of India.
215
I bought a bag of crisps for 20 rupees, which is literally 16p.
216
And while I was absolutely sleep deprived, this was probably my favourite part of the trip.
217
The group that was around my bed, they were all proper sound and they could speak decent English.
218
So we just chatted for several hours.
219
And after sharing a bed for probably too long, I decided to get out of my seat for a bit.
220
and just enjoy the view.
221
I've got loads more space, and also this is just a vibe.
222
Now all I had to do was wait for the clock to hit 7pm.
223
We're officially coming to the gate, I was in for the journey.
224
And you know what that means.
225
See you later, good to meet you my man.
226
See you later, I'm off to higher class now.
227
Very nice to meet you guys.
228
This ticket was 4 ,600 rubles, which equates to 36 pounds 7 pence, which was the highest class ticket you could buy on this train.
229
The guys at the last place, they were all so nice.
230
And I'm just so excited to have a bed to myself, to not be cramped up and finally get a good night's sleep.
231
I'd been on this train for two days straight now, laid down, cramped up, barely moving for two days.
232
But knowing I was going to the highest class, I was just so happy.
233
I'm in a good mood right now.
234
I just upgraded my ticket.
235
This was the daughter of a class.
236
Hiya.
237
Is this 51?
238
Okay.
239
I'm Joe.
240
Good to meet you.
241
Nice to meet you.
242
I don't know what to say.
243
That is so annoying.
244
How can the most expensive ticket on the train be a
245
ticket where you have to share a bed with a random stranger?
246
I'm looking forward to having my own bed.
247
But hey, it wasn't this guy's fault at all.
248
I felt just as bad for him as I did myself.
249
So I just tried to get to know him a little bit.
250
- I'm in the army.
251
- You're in the army?
252
- No way.
253
- What do you think of the Vivek Express?
254
- Bad.
255
- Bad.
256
Yeah.
257
He couldn't really speak much English, but there's always one question that everyone understands.
258
Okay, I have a question.
259
Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo?
260
- Cristiano.
261
- Cristiano?
262
Nah.
263
Messy bear.
264
Now the bed itself there wasn't really any difference to the previous class.
265
You had a plug, pillow and blankets.
266
The only thing that was different is you had a curtain so you had a bit more privacy.
267
Listen I can complain all I want but honestly I need to consider myself lucky.
268
I just went into sleep well just about got into sleep class.
269
This is how it's looking at the moment.
270
This coat well there's hardly anyone in it.
271
So I got ready for bed and tried to get some sleep but again it was just so cramped.
272
I just couldn't get comfortable, I couldn't sleep.
273
I've done a lot of crazy stuff on this channel.
274
Stuff that has really pushed me mentally.
275
And I'm not saying this lightly, I'm not exaggerating for the video.
276
This is the worst thing I've ever done, without a doubt in my life.
277
last three nights.
278
But all of a sudden the train pulled into a stop.
279
He has just left, he's got off the train.
280
I actually have the bed fully to myself.
281
I can actually stretch my legs.
282
This is one of the deepest sleeps I've ever had in my life.
283
In upper class you've got a complimentary meal which was curry.
284
I need some new clothes.
285
I've run out of tops and I feel stinky as hell.
286
Luckily some lady was selling clothes on the train.
287
This?
288
Yes?
289
100 rupees.
290
It cost me 78p.
291
It's slightly too small.
292
But hey, can't complain for 78p.
293
The train is stopping to 3 minutes.
294
I've come here.
295
I want that. That is the spot.
296
As the train started leaving I jumped back on.
297
And for the next few hours I just sat and took in the views again.
298
We are at the home stretch now.
299
This feels amazing.
300
Nearly done.
301
I then found out that this guy, the person I was sharing a bed with last night, he actually hadn't got off the train.
302
So I just found out that Arun, who I was sharing the bed with last night, who the bed is as much his as it is mine, he saw me struggling to sleep and he decided to leave
303
and go and sit out in the corridor so I could sleep.
304
Even though he was struggling to sleep himself to myself.
305
What an amazing person.
306
I've only found out now.
307
I feel awful but just what a selfless person.
308
Aaron can you say can you come say hi to the...
309
Hi.
310
Here he is.
311
This is the fucking biggest legend ever.
312
Genuinely.
313
His English isn't the best.
314
We've got a translator who's helping.
315
He went to sit next to the toilet door to give him joy to sleep in the bed.
316
He was very happy to help you brother.
317
hours just so I could sleep.
318
Aaron you are an amazing person genuinely thank you so much my man thank you.
319
And as the train got to one of the last stops.
320
Goodbye.
321
Goodbye.
322
See you later brother.
323
Aaron said his goodbyes.
324
Just past midnight we've got about an hour left.
325
Honestly this was one of the worst 75 hours of my life.
326
Like mentally it just really took a toll on me and I think that was because of the lack of sleep.
327
But I really did meet some awesome people, so there is that.
328
Okay.
329
Oh shit, we're here!
330
And that has been the Vivica Express.
331
I'm not gonna miss it.
332
Hey guys, I'm back home.
333
My voice is gone.
334
Just a quick little plug to end the video from me.
335
YoungLA, one of my main sponsors, who I wore in this video, they've got one of their only sales of the year going from the 7th to the 14th of this month.
336
My code JOE, 20 % off everything on the side.
337
If you want to support me in any way, just checking that out would mean a lot.
338
Thank you everyone.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?
שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
