I thought Brazil was dangerous. I have friends that have been to Rio de Janeiro and said it was the craziest place they have ever been. I also remember seeing a special on these guys that ride the subways like a surfer but some of them were dying..

As for me, I do not live in a 3 rd world country...I have been to quite a few....Thailand, Phillipines, Somalia, Mexico...it def is a lot different than what I used to.
