A little note on the Isle of man vid + coming up next
Hey everyone, just wanted to say thanks for your patience on the Isle of man race vid. It was a race in of itself to get it out to you on time and as a result I missed a couple of mistakes in the edit. Well about 5 actually. I've had to reupload an amended version, so any comments you've left will be lost. That's something I try my best to avoid but on this occasion it had to be done.
Isle of man Bonus footage dropping in a week.
I'm also very aware that you $4 tier people haven't had an adventure video in just over a month now, so some time in the week you can expect to see "Man vs Bus" a fun challenge in which I put my recent running fitness to the test and race my uncle Ed (who's on a meandering local bus) 9 miles to my nans house. (already filmed, just need to edit up)
Me and Ed also embark on two epic kayak trips this month.
Mission across England editing also commences tomorrow!
Hope you all enjoyed the video and had a good weekend everyone.
PS. I should have beat those gits. Only have myself to blame though!

I really would love some more Amynedd music too, I must have listened to the album 40 times by now!
Just watched the video Tom, great content. Will be for sure looking forward to the next videos to come!
Was another brilliant straight line mission! Can't wait for the England one :o Would you ever consider trying Scotland again? I'm from there and it's great fun seeing you in area's where I can recognize haha
For other leg cramp sufferers I suggest a magnesium supplement, lots of water, and the very microsecond you start to feel your muscles seizing up you need to start stomping around like a Morris dancer on acid. If you don't start stomping in time, you are kinda doomed. Pull your knee up to your chest, grab and squeeze you thigh directly above your knee, and scream every profanity you can think of in creative combinations until it's over.
How open to the thought of finding an editor are you? An editor which incorporates your style of editing ofc. It seems like you could save so much time on editing and put it towards missions, or down time. Sorry i do believe you have answered this in the past.
We watched the initial upload and didn't notice any mistakes in editing; don't be so hard on yourself. Just like last time, those fetuses had that little rubber duckie to help and an easier trek. Whereas all our poor Tom had was twice the gorse, a suffering scrot and leg cramps. Not a proper 1 to 1 competition. If you ever do this sort of race again, my husband had a good idea- same line, opposite sides of it to start, pass each other in the middle rather than having an unfair course to the finish.
So excited for all the upcoming content Tom. Enjoy the editing of the England mission, if that’s possible! x
Can't wait for Mission across England! I'm SO PUMPED, these are my favourite videos on all of YouTube!
I watched this (the original upload) on a transatlantic flight. Definitely the most enjoyable part of that flight. Straight line missions are absolute gems! If you ever do one in Ireland and need a hand with anything, let me know.
Top work again Tom love watching your content keep it coming!
I hope we get some new Amynedd music one day!
God my boyfriend and I's dream of doing a straight line mission across IoM has truly been put to question due to the Gorsebush torture you had to endure. Crazy how you were likely in the sulby reservoir while we were walking Nova the collie nearby. Another great video as usual! You're a mad one in the best way possible.
I’d love to hear your thoughts in a video or post on how different (or not) planning for this straight line mission on a small island compared to the wales / Scotland ones? Are there other islands you are / have considered? What about the Isle of White? The shetlands? All those other amazing Scottish islands (isle of Skye might be cool or even Lewis / Harris? Appreciate everything you do!
Aw shame about the spoiler, was looking forward to that
Whoops. Spoiler alert in the update. Still will be good though.
Spoiler! Can't wait to watch
Honestly I didn't notice any mistakes and makes me wonder what they were lol. Was a fun vid though, enjoyed watching a mission again and looking forward to the next batch. PS. Check your Discord messages lol.
Class. Your videos are always worth the wait. Brilliant as ever
Loved the race format, it adds another dimension, urgency and suspense to an already winning combo! Hope you do more of them 😁
Oh man, spoiler alert on the PS!
You should have beat those gits, you’re right. I don’t know why you put yourself down in the beginning. You probably see two vs one, younger vs older…. I see wannabes vs experience and competence. Honestly, they do what they do because they look up to you. You’re in charge in this field (literally) and had you seen that yourself in time I think you would’ve done it. Don’t ever doubt yourself like that again. End of scolding
Such a great Video again. Good to know you made it through safely. That oder chap at the end was actually quite a nice bloke - first rightfully angry but very soon kinda understanding. Lovely.
The way you broke the time down at the end made perfect sense as to why it should have been much closer than it was. Also, I’m not familiar with the other two’s YouTube page. Did they post a version of this mission on their channel as well?
Loved it x
Will always be worth the wait
