Influencer David Simpson's Instagram video ranking "worst" travel destinations sparked outrage after calling India the "dirtiest" country. His October 17 post showed images of dirty streets and tangled wires, though he acknowledged "parts of it are unreal, people amazing." Simpson also named Guinea most corrupt, Baghdad worst traffic, Morocco most unfriendly, and the United States most expensive. When asked about worst airport experiences, Simpson cited India, claiming his flight was "cancelled 5 times, trapped for a week" in August 2025 due to weather. Users criticized his generalizations, with some defending India's hospitality and hotels. Others praised Pakistan as "most hospitable and beautiful." The video demonstrates how personal travel experiences can spark nationalist debates on social media.
