right now i'm in canada's most dangerous neighborhood jane

and finch breaking news two men dead shots were fired three separate shootings near jane

and finch jane and finch we're near jane and finch

and i have just one impossible mission to get a random stranger here to hang out with me

but it's going to be harder than expected tell us a

little bit about life here in jana finch trenches most dangerous

most trench in canada content creators got shot in the head over here.

I don't know how to feel about this video.

Maybe let's warm up a little bit and grab something to eat first.

That's a good idea.

It's not because I'm scared or trying to stall.

I just, I'm hungry.

Stop the cow.

I decided to grab a little drink to give me a bit more time to rethink my life decisions.

I'm really hoping today is not my last day on earth.

I still haven't tried In -N -Out yet, so hopefully I can do that before I die.

Now, before entering the neighborhood, I figured it'd be a good idea to get some advice from my local.

So I walked around, and it didn't take me long to run into someone interesting.

Hi, my friend.

You want a coffee?

Sorry, I don't have...

I mean, I have a coffee here.

You want it?

Oh, yeah, of course.

Thank you. Of course.

Do you live around the Jane and Finch area?

Yes, yes.

I'm trying to make a friend here.

Okay.

I was wondering, do you have any advice for me?

Do you know anything about this area?

This area is dangerous.

It's dangerous?

Yes there's a lot selling cocaine oh okay yes i was in

that building and in that building they were from jamaica they tried to they tried to what

oh my goodness i'm so sorry to hear this yes

but i watched the police and then they stopped it

so you're okay i'm glad to hear

that wow be careful be careful okay okay well thank you

so much have great day okay wish you the best enjoy the drink of course take care did i hear that correctly

i mean my ass is kind of nice hopefully they don't see me as a target after

that interaction i not only lost my drink

but i also lost any little amount of courage i had

before arriving here i then tried starting a conversation with another

guy excuse me sir oh okay no worries have a great day all right let's go

well that's a pretty fitting shirt anyways i was still looking

for someone who could give me actual advice about the area before entering the neighborhood and that's

when i ran into these two guys i'm trying to make

a friend here a friend a friend someone who's willing to

hang out with me get to know each other be careful

who you make your friends to here why should i be

careful half the people here have mental illnesses really you have

a better chance of not having any friends that's not too

good to hear i've been here since 1975 bro 1975 wow

you look very young i'm 53 years old you're 53 yeah

this man was telling me how he's been in this neighborhood all his life

and he was kind enough to give me a quick rundown

of the area let me tell you this trip this this is neutral zone okay

that way is all crips you know about crips and bloods right?

I have heard about Crips and Blood.

Okay.

Anything past Finch is Crips.

Anything south of Finch is Bloods.

It's good you guys are wearing these colors.

You're wearing neutral colors.

Neutral colors.

Great.

Thank God.

There's like crossfires and you know gang shooting at each other.

Right here in this mall.

In this mall?

Yeah in the parking lots and like last summer they had shootouts in this parking lot.

Jane and Finch has the most shootings in the whole of Toronto.

You know where you landed?

This is the place of all the unwanted.

Okay this is where all the unwanted come bro your family

don't want you you got kicked to the curb you got divorced whatever problems you got it's on you

and nobody's helping you this is where you end up this

is rock bottom jaden finch it's rock bottom bro after giving

me a rough breakdown of the area we wrapped up our conversation

and he left me with one last piece of advice stay

in the common areas don't go into the neighborhood do not

go into neighborhoods for your own safety okay do not go into the neighborhoods for your own safety.

I am in the neighborhood.

Really glad that it's sunny today because if it wasn't, I'd probably be pissing my pants right now.

Although I was told not to go into the neighborhood, I feel like if I didn't, it would ruin the point of the challenge.

And so it was finally time to try and make a friend.

The first thing I noticed was despite it being sunny on a Saturday,

it seemed like there was barely any people outside.

But after walking around for a few minutes, I eventually spotted my first person.

I was going to ask her, but I got too scared when I got close.

I can't even lie.

Who was she talking to?

I have no idea.

i may have fumbled that opportunity

but the next person i saw i was definitely going to

ask excuse me sir i'm trying to make a friend in this area

and i was wondering

if you'd be down to hang out anytime nope no okay

100

have a great day after running into those two people i was still struggling to find anyone outside

101

and then i had a genius idea bus stops excuse me

102

sir i have a really random question for you i was wondering

103

if you would be open to hanging out together nope huh

104

okay no worries have a good day excuse me sir i was wondering

105

if you'd be down to hang out well right now i'm

106

busy right now what another day i might be busy for a

107

while yeah no worries have a great day man okay i

108

have a really random question for you i'm sorry bro no

109

i speak in english oh no english okay okay sorry no

110

worries have a good day no english damn it about an hour had passed now

111

and I was only able to find a few people.

112

So I decided to switch things up and walk to the other side of the hood.

113

I don't know if you guys can see that but there's police officers from afar.

114

We are in an area called Shoreham which the guy was telling me this is either the Bloods or Crips.

115

I don't really remember.

116

I also thought that was a constant thing.

117

I didn't know they kept the same name in Toronto

118

but the fact that there's police officers just walking around is not a great sign.

119

The neighborhood here definitely looks a little bit more sketch than before.

120

I feel like everything about the scenery is telling me not to go in there.

121

All right, let's just go in really quickly.

122

I'll take a few steps in, test the waters out.

123

The fact that I have a camera just makes it so much worse.

124

At this point, I felt like I was in a ghost town the way nobody was outside, and I genuinely did not know how I was going to make a friend

125

but on the bright side this was the perfect time to

126

film the intro okay let's film the intro quick really okay

127

let's film the intro really quick right now i'm in the

128

hood right now i'm in canada's most dangerous right now i'm

129

in canada's most dangerous neighborhood let's find out what it's all about all right i'm out i'm out

130

when i'm scared it's like guys it's coming this way we're

131

cooked might as well get my will ready i saw these kids walking up from a distance

132

and although i considered asking them to hang out i figured

133

that might be a bit weird

134

so instead i asked them for advice i'm trying to make a friend do you guys have any advice for me

135

anything to stay away from

136

or don't say you're part of any game okay what was

137

the most scary experience you guys have gone through here is there anything i got shot like right there in

138

You saw a guy get shot?

139

Yeah.

140

And was it a random shooting or?

141

Not really.

142

Damn.

143

Okay.

144

Well, perfect.

145

Thank you guys so much.

146

I appreciate it.

147

Have a great day.

148

Appreciate it.

149

I had been in the hood for a few hours now

150

and I was starting to feel a bit discouraged about whether I'd actually be able to make a friend.

151

Then all of a sudden, everything changed.

152

Excuse me, sir.

153

I have a really random question.

154

Would you be potentially down to hang out with me?

155

I know like just get to know each other to make a friend um right now

156

if you're not free right now it could be another day

157

sure actually yeah wait what's your name difference difference yeah seiko

158

nice to meet you meet you our hangout would be whatever you want to do

159

if you don't have a preference

160

and like we could figure something out are you actually down yeah that's calm that's calm

161

thank you bro i appreciate you nice to meet you bro

162

do you think like any time today may work not today

163

not today it wouldn't be today another day okay do you mind

164

if i grab your instagram and then

165

if anything we're still you can let me know appreciate you

166

bro yeah yeah have a good one take care have a

167

great day all right dude was hella chill i was kind of stunned the way he said yes

168

so easily like it felt almost too good to be true

169

but i wasn't going to complain all

170

that was left to do was set up a day

171

and time for the hangout okay so i've been texting difference back

172

and 4th and he told me he is down to play basketball today

173

so I'm about to get ready drive to the basketball court

174

and hopefully we just have a good time and he actually shows up

175

and does not bail on me because

176

that would be pretty bad we have officially arrived at the

177

basketball court now all we gotta do is wait for our

178

boy to show up you know they used to call me Jeremy Linden in high school we'll cut

179

that difference texted me the night before

180

that he was going to be at the court at three

181

so i was pretty confident he was going to show up

182

but as time went by i became a bit less confident

183

it's 3 24 right now i guess he's just a little

184

bit late hopefully he uh still shows up though it is

185

3 35 right now i'm genuinely getting a little concerned on where he's at

186

because if he doesn't show up

187

That means I'm going to have to go back to the hood and find another person to hang out with me.

188

And I really do not want to do that.

189

It was getting later and later, and there wasn't much else I could do besides wait.

190

Nope, that's an old lady.

191

Then, just as I was starting to lose hope, I saw someone walking towards the court.

192

I think I see him from a distance.

193

Yes, sir.

194

Okay, our boy's here.

195

Yo, what's good, bro?

196

I appreciate you for coming, man.

197

It means a lot.

198

Your name is Difference, right? wait is it spelt like the actual word difference yeah

199

damn that's like that's really unique i've never heard anyone with

200

that name i guess you could say it's pretty different

201

so i saw on your instagram

202

that you played basketball yes i do you play basketball for

203

a college yeah i play at niagara college yeah yeah my second year okay

204

so yeah we started off by letting difference warm up for a bit

205

and bro was straight automatic from the frito line so

206

when i first came up to you What was the reason you said yes

207

because I was just like a stranger that walked up to you I seen

208

that you guys were recording some I was like curious what's going on I was gonna ask what's going on.

209

Yeah, I thought you know like why not make new friends, you know I don't have a lot of friends.

210

Likewise.

211

I don't have many friends.

212

Yeah, it's good to get to know people Right.

213

You know, it's good.

214

Now it was time to have some fun We played a game of horse

215

and I was actually doing pretty good until he pulled out his ultimate move Hey, oh my goodness.

216

So you live in the Jane and Finch area?

217

Yeah, I live in that building.

218

I came here in 2017.

219

And so you haven't experienced anything, like, too crazy, right?

220

As long as you stay out of the way, you don't do nothing crazy, nothing's going to happen to you, hopefully.

221

I've heard, like, shootings, you know, I've heard a few stuff.

222

But just because we heard that doesn't mean this is not a good community.

223

Like, it's good people.

224

So you find, like, there's a lot of good people here, nice people.

225

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

226

At least like 70 -80 % of the people here, pretty nice, pretty chill.

227

They just stay out of the way, trying to live a life, you know.

228

Difference was explaining to me that the reality of the neighborhood was different from the way the media portrays it to be.

229

And he invited me to walk through it to check it out for myself.

230

Did you walk inside?

231

Like this neighborhood, this specific neighborhood.

232

Did you actually walk?

233

Did you take that little turn right there and just walk inside?

234

I don't think so.

235

You scared?

236

Yeah, I'm not scared.

237

I'm a grown -ass man.

238

But yeah, maybe let's not go there.

239

Wait, why?

240

No, it's really up to you like

241

if you want to come with me like i'll come with you okay i'll come okay well check out

242

that neighborhood i honestly did not know what to expect

243

but as we walked deeper into the neighborhood i was genuinely

244

shocked there was just a bunch of people outside having a

245

good time the adults were talking to each other kids were playing in the playground

246

and there were even barbers giving out free haircuts got haircuts

247

over here very calm it's a good neighborhood we can go

248

to park people are friendly I feel like in other areas it's not like everyone's houses are all around

249

and there's just a park in the middle everyone can come

250

out exactly hang out exactly it's a family you know everybody

251

knows each other it's a good neighbor it's a very very

252

good neighbor actually how are you doing those your neighbors you

253

know I meet on YouTube sorry hello you want to say

254

hi to YouTube my channel is called Seiko yeah appreciate it thank you for the subscribe, man.

255

Thank you.

256

Hey, what's up, YouTube?

257

If anyone got some money, I'm broke, so I need something.

258

Okay.

259

All right, that's enough camera time.

260

When I made this video, I didn't really know what to expect, whether it be a negative or positive experience.

261

Yeah.

262

But I feel like so far, it's been very positive.

263

Like, I met you.

264

You're super nice.

265

Yeah.

266

Showing us the community, which seems like just a bunch of nice people.

267

Yeah, it's a good community.

268

To go from feeling pretty scared at the beginning to then feeling welcomed by the community

269

and seeing how friendly people were was truly an eye -opening experience.

270

It reminded me that there's always another side to a story and sometimes all it takes is keeping an open mind,

271

being friendly, and treating others with respect because you never know how one conversation can completely change your perspective on life.

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?

Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
