I hate how most Youtube videos like this, even if well-produced, have a clickbait title now. The video is just about the unique spontaneous urban "design" of Kowloon Walled City.

I have always been fascinated with this place. Even though many things about the Kowloon Walled City were dangerous and deleterious to the health of its residents, there is something utopian in such a dense, spontaneous, and self-sufficient urban community.
