Can a Total Amateur Make French Pastries?
I thought making French pastries would be easy… but I wasn’t ready for what happened next. I signed up for a baking class, hoping to create something amazing. Instead, I found myself in way over my head.

I Barely Survived The Easiest Survival Camp in the World (nearly 40)
มุมมอง 1.6Kวันที่ผ่านมา
I thought surviving a basic survival camp would be a piece of cake. What was meant to be a simple challenge turned into one of the most humbling experiences of my life. From failing at the basics to questioning if I’d even make it through, this camp wasn’t just about survival, it was a battle with myself. Let’s just say, it’s harder than it looks! Thank you to www.backcountrysurvival.co.uk for ...

I Found The Side of Iceland They Don't Show You!

Fancy Instagram photos and drone shots don't show you what Iceland is actually like. What's it like to live there? What are the people like? What do they actually do? This is the real Iceland and these are the questions I want to answer!

I forgot my dad’s birthday… not great, I know. So, I’m heading out on a last-minute adventure across Scotland to find him the perfect gift. No plan, no clue, just figuring it out as I go. From missed buses to some interesting encounters, it’s already shaping up to be… chaotic. Will it all be worth it in the end? Let’s find out. Part 1: th-cam.com/video/W7i5Yypnw1Y/w-d-xo.html

I went on a steam train before it's too late

I missed out of Concorde, the Blimp and even seeing Challenger fly. But I don’t want to miss out of seeing a Steam Train. I took the Peak Express Locomotive from Preston to Derby. I didn’t know what to expect but like most things I do, it really ended up being an experience. If you're into the geeky stuff, it was Steam Hauled by LMS ‘Black 5’ 4-6-0 No. 45212.

Did the CHEAPEST car on Facebook make it to Barcelona?

I Became a Shepherd for 2 Hours to Connect With My Dad
มุมมอง 1655 หลายเดือนก่อน
There are soo many things that I don't know and one is how my dad lived when he was younger. Most of his early years was spent being a shepherd. I came across some shepherds and asked if I could milk a goat. I rejected my dad's older way of life for so long, that I feel like I missed out of soo many experiences with him.

We need a comment from Dan ! Has he made it back down !!
yes we do…Dan where are you???
I love the videos they come across so sincere and geniune wish you had more but quality over quantity as they say! Keep at it i look forward to each upload.
I read the other day that every 20 mins more videos are uploaded to TH-cam than I can watch in my whole life. The fact that you choose to watch my videos over all that is amazing. I'm still working this out. Just having fun along the way. Who knows what crazy challenge I'm about to start (spoilers you already know).
You could do the Southend half marathon 2025 :D Also, it's for Havens Hospices who do incredible work and are currently running at a deficit.
oh no....you joined in toooo......🥲 I knew I should have cut that part out of the video 😂
ultra time
oh please noooo
You need to come over here and ride a mule with me ...
ohhhh the temptation is reallllll....waiting for my new passport (ran out of pages) then you may well get a visitor in the mail.
Hmm, how deep with the fingers, rubber rings around the wood, was french pastry made for or by people with a special imagination. Or is it just you.
It's probably just me and your sense of humour ☺️
Another brilliant video, it just goes to show that doing something different and taking a class leads to interactions with amazing people
Couldn't agree more!
Blimey mate. A sandwich pastry 🥐 sounds great 👍. I’m not joining in with others that will want you to do the mad marathon. Maybe a short swim to France 🇫🇷 instead, and taste some Chouxs there 😂. Great video mate as usual 👍
oh only a little swim then 😂 it tasted a lot better than I thought
@ 😂. IRS shorter than the 156 mile desert run, and you’ll be rewarded with a delicious choux, or shoes 😂 at the end of the swim 🏊. Who can turn down a delicious pastry 🥐 😂?
Haha…first I would need to learn to swim that much 😂 but the pastry being waved above my head might do the job.
You have to now do a 5k, then 10k then marathon. Then ultra
oh here we go 😩 looks like I’m going to be a world of pain.
Yes he needs to do a marathon! And then Ultra
oh no….I knew I should have cut that part out the video😂
😀
Bro. I was on edge this whole video about wether to sub or not. And for some random reason. I chose to at 20:50
Glad you did! I'm just exploring life before it's too late. I wonder what happened in the last 2 seconds that made you change your mind?
@@mrcoban honestly I have no idea! What you working on atm?
It's a video about regretting your life. It could go any way at atm. But I think I like the idea of finding a regret and trying to fix/beat it.
Nice video! I barely made the last few minutes as I felt the cringe! lol
It was an experience. Now I know what to do oh and so do you 😂
Keep going mate. Some great content that I look forward to.
You are too kind!!!! I'm having too much fun. I'm starting to wonder if that's normal.
My man, you remind me of Javier Bardem. Twin's seperated at birth?
I'll take that compliment. I wish I was as talented as him!!! Javier is the man!!!
Oh no! Thumper! 😁. ..no, serious respect for the struggle and also for your wife keeping the kids in check until you come back and tell a story that will even leave your grandkids in awe. Next weekend I suggest you change places and your wife is going on an adventure.
My kids still don't believe I did it 😂. I asked my wife if she wanted to come with me and she said "so your going into the woods, in winter, to survive, nahhh I'm alright". I'll see what she want's to do....
Those army rations were SO bad! 🤣
I kept thinking "this is to keep you alive, not happy" 😊
@@mrcoban Soldiers go through too much to be stuck with a bag of beans for dinner! I dunno... seems like a wank account sells them. Did you check the reviews?
I did, but how good is baked beans and sausage going to be coming out of a bag??? 😂
Brilliant video, great to have you on our course and hopefully you're feeling more prepared for any future adventures💪👌
Thank you for having me!!!
You really had some Blair witch vibes going off there at one point 😂
It felt like that when I was there. Spooky moment 😂
good on you for pushing yourself mate, preparedness is everything
This was a tough one!!! I guess I'm 10% more prepared.
@@mrcoban lot of good stuff on youtube about urban survival also
What a great video its time youtube starts to promote your videos thank you mr coban
Hey!!! Glad you liked it. This one was tough one to do. Hoping youtube finds more of my audience.
Yeahhhhhh
This was a tough one!!!
😀
welcome back!!!
I enjoyed that! How did you do it, though? Do you have two cameras or a cameraman with you? Or do you occasionally ask people to shoot you? I'm baffled! But I really enjoyed coming along to Scotland with you!
Hi, I'm glad you enjoyed the journey. No, I have one camera (my phone) and I use that to record myself. I don't have a cameraman with me. I'm curious as to what made you think I did?
@@mrcoban Hi, I thought you were on your phone until I saw a couple of shots of you looking/holding your phone. That's when I thought who is shooting him?!
Oh I have another phone I use to record those parts.
Tranium
Two delicious Whisky’s! Thank you so much mrcoban!
I love watching your channel keep up the good work :) happy new year and hope all is well :) .
Happy new year and thank you for watching. I have a feeling I'm going to be trying some fun things this year!!!
😀
God damnit, now I'm going to have that scene from Life of Brian stuck in my head for the rest of the day. (Also, keep doing what you are doing, it is good shit.)
😂 It's still playing in my head. Thank you for watching!
Mate your videos are so good filmed and edited so well such good story telling
I appreciate that...I'm having fun making them. Been a little under the weather sorry for the late reply!!!
@ honestly mate you’re smashing it I tried doing a road trip to Scotland and the clutch died half way up the country it’s all fun and games
what car did you do it with?
@@mrcoban got it fixed local but it was the 27th of December so had to wait till the 12th for it to get sorted up there I ended coming back down the country
Great content
I grew up in a village like this, and it was much more isolated...where a hot dog with everything was the sunday dinner, because I was so sick of fish, they were out of it, prawns... 7 year me, I was furious..I went out into the storm and started climbing the mountain, in the hight winds, the phones worked, so my mom called my uncle...I was 280 m up the mountain. "You can't whine about food", "I'm sick of fish, all you have is fish", "I'll take you tomorrow, to the store, you can pick anything you want, then in the store, what is that?", the only bird I had tasted was raven/dove/swan, raven tastes very bitter. dove tastes like less than fish... swan tasted like eating a flower...it is sour and soap like... disgusting meat...it flew onto our window and died and my mom just cut it up and cooked it...That is how life iwas in country towns and how it is when you don't have roads..
Thank you for sharing your experiences with me! I never got round to trying the different meats in that area. But it Sean’s swan isn’t something I would enjoy 😂
Great videos, your channel should have way more followers
I appreciate that! I’m working on it…just haven’t cracked the TH-cam formula yet!
I spend alot of time in Iceland, I see this side all the time, and wish I lived it full time instead of just part time.
It’s a very different place. Very unique!
Love it! Thanks for taking us along with you :)
Glad you enjoyed it! I’m trying to make each video better than the last!
"Absolutely loved the video! 💖 Wishing you all the success and hoping your videos reach a wider audience because you truly deserve it! 🌟👏"
Thank you so much!! Fingers crossed crossed 🤞
Theres a real 'watchableness' to this guy. Ive already subbed from last video, and i do look forward to more new videos. Great content, getting stuck in the with the life of locals. Good stuff. Merry Christmas to all
Glad you like them! Hope you continue to watch and share your thought with me. I’m just having fun experiencing life and hopefully it inspires you to do the same!
Well done, we look forward to meet people who want to experience real Iceland 😀 Thanks for dropping in and create a challenging and yet inspiring video of your adventure in our surroundings.
It’s and amazing place!!! Cold!!! But amazing!!! Plus people there are very kind and friendly…at least the ones I met.
How beautiful
What agreat video this is one of the best channels on yt i really hope it grows otherwise we could lose this grade A content merry Christmas mr coban to you and your family ❤
🤞 I hope so too, I’m really enjoying this journey. Maybe TH-cam will show my channel some love in 2025. If it doesn’t, then I would have just had some fun, met some cool people and had new experiences. Just glad you’re enjoying it!
@ i love the Channel you awsome and very entertaining
MrCoban is raising the bar for travel vlogging!
Just trying to live an interesting life!!!
This is hecking BRILLIANT! 😂🤩
Great video m8 thx for your positive vibes
Thank you!
Never stop making video's
I hope you keep watching!
@mrcoban yes of course happy new year
This is an awesome series, how wholesome were that family?! If i should ever visit Iceland in my time i'll be sure to head to the cafe and ask about them as dads workshop is just heaven.
They made me feel at home!! Oh I wish I had that workshop…just so that I could sit there and look at it 😂
I don't understand why Alan Gorithm isn't pushing these videos and this channel more. They are made with such passion and a joy for life's experiences, people deserve to be watching these far more than the majority of nonsense on here!
I guess I need to try harder 😂 as it’s currently keeping my channel a secret. It’s amazing that I’ve succeeded in taking you with me!
I look forward to your uploads your channel is criminally undersubbed. Just the type of person I could travel with if I didn't have a toddler . 😂
Welcome back! I think TH-cam thinks I should try harder…maybe 2025 will be when I crack it…or maybe I’ll just have a load of new experiences 😂
@@mrcoban I'll be along for the ride whatever way 👌
Thank you!!!! Let me know if you have any ideas
