I Tried Visiting Lebanon as a Chasidic Jew, but This Happened… | Yiddish
What happens when you try visiting Lebanon dressed as a chasidic Jew? I found out the hard way.
This video is the most intense journey I’ve ever attempted. From leaving America with high hopes, to being stopped, rejected, and sent back — only to try again disguised differently — every step felt like walking a tightrope. I filmed it all:
– My first attempt, straight from the U.S.
– Getting turned around at the border
– Visiting the Lebanon consulate in New York City and the embassy in Washington
– The second attempt, ending with 24 hours detained inside Beirut Airport
– And finally, taking an even bigger risk by traveling into Saudi Arabia fully dressed Hasidic
This is not just a trip — it’s a once-in-a-lifetime story of faith, risk, and the unexpected.
