That was awesome! perfect song choice. Love how you threw so much footage in there but didnt stick on one thing too much thumbsup

The water fart LOL

Does Freddy have fear of heights? Looked like a few times he was so cautious walking to the edge of the cliff/canyon.

Sick van too shaka I rekon the way you have done it would be the best way to see the country

thanks!

The silence after the water fart is me choking on the water in the snorkel and trying not to drown cos I accidently breathed in cos I was laughing so hard. I had no idea he was going to do it, I was just trying to get footage of him diving down.
That natural spring was in the middle of the desert in texas, about 15kms off the interstate. We did a 9hr day of driving and it was the best thing in the middle of the day to break up the drive!

And yes - we’re both pretty much terrified of heights!

Nice! Would love to road trip the US like that one day.

glad you guys enjoyed it!

If you are going to do it, I’d say do it while you are nice and young if you can!

We were loving every single day but also totally exhausted by the end. We can’t seem to help ourselves - we always want to spend the time seeing as much as possible and so we end up rushing around everywhere….I’d say we averaged around 4 to 5 hours driving a day.

Any extra youthful energy you guys might have would have been useful to us is all I’m saying!

And Jez - of all the ads to appear on our video, I’m most stoked to have that one appear! grin
