- The Battle at Khe Sanh was a tragedy on both sides of the Vietnam war and seeing the history while walking the cities was a memorable historical and culinary experience. @baldandbankrupt @BackpackerBen
Note to self. When I go to Vietnam to film my vlogs for my channel, do not go in December. 😂 😂
It was an Honour to be on the ground of one of the most intense battles. Having seen the terrain and the elements on this trip, it really puts history in perspective for me. My sincere gratitude to those who went before me in uniform.
@@chrise842 An inside joke involving a recreational vehicle, rendezvous point? Haha
Happy Birthday Tim K. 👍🤝🇸🇪😀
@@Botoburst if you know, you know.
🎉Happy Birthday ‘Bruh.🎂
@@Botoburst fake taxi 😉?
Tim, thanks for this video, I was in Viet Nam from Sept 1968 to Sept 1969 as a crew chief on the CH-47. I later crashed in one while flying rescue missions for an earthquake in Peru in July 1969. I later retired from the Army in March 1970. This brought back a lot of memories both good and bad. I then returned to work as a civilian for the Airforce. I have then lived in 5 countries on assignment with the Airforce and am now married to a Filipina.
I really like your channel keep it up.
7:55 Tim biting into the top of the skull had me ROLLING 😂😂😂
dude, that was horrifying when I edited the video. I seriously had no idea it was the head.
@@TimKyoutube lol when you went in for the bite so casually I was stunned!
It actually makes me very emotional to watch this.
My father was an Army Ranger in the Vietnam War and he suffers greatly with ptsd. He wanted to be there, he was one of the few that volunteered.
Now he suffers from dementia from the ptsd.
Thank you for sharing this with us Tim.
I've spent a lot of time in groups at the VA with men like your dad. Very moving times for me. Wish I had those resources here in Asia. The rangers are serious business. Much respect.
I thank your father for his service and may all of you have a wonderful Merry Christmas God bless you
@@calvingarrett3245 thx for what killing people and burning villages
I'm watching this epic series from different perspectives (Tim, Bald and Ben)..and it's awesome!
It’s very cool to watch this content from your channel and Mr. Bald’s channel. Very cool.
I just recently lost my dad to complications of Agent Orange exposure. He was stationed in Chu Lai in the 116th AHC. He was a Huey door gunner. Before he passed, he was telling me I should do what I can do visit Vietnam. It does look beautiful and welcoming. Maybe we can one day. He called the Chinooks "shit hooks" as well. It made me laugh when you said that. I'm glad I stumbled upon your channel via Bald.
Andy, thank you for sharing. Much respect to your dad. I really appreciate it. You owe it to him to come out and see the landscape. It may be healing for you.
Retired USMC. Really cool...very surreal. So much history. The weather you experienced adds to the experience. Thanks for sharing.
He is welknown TH-cam blogger all around world person. You got kudos on that
Oh that's a neat adventure there lol.
Happy Birthday Tim,what a great birthday cake they bought you..I'm loving these episode with the 3 of you
Aw man. Poor Ben felt left out here. He didn't get the dog tags
That's what he gets for being a little cry baby throughout this trip LoL
maby a purple heart for scratching his arm ? 🤣🤣🤣
@@peterbrittain1963 yeah he deserves some kind of award
As a U.S. Navy S.E.R.E. instructor and working with a man who was a POW in the Hanoi Hilton for 3.5 years when I went to the Hanoi Hilton and walked inside it gave me chills know my good friend spent 3.5 years there getting beaten and punished 24/7 and to think about all the other men he told me about . Then broke his elbow and today he still can't use that arm . I learned a lot there. As my 3 years as an instructor I meet a couple POWs to hear what they went through was Amazing and so sad .
Insane insight. Never went to SERE. Secretive school. The acronym kept me alive once on the road when I had to dig deep in a bad situation. Much respect for being an instructor. I'm sure you scared the S out of dudes at the PX even years later when they see you.
Wow Well done 😂🤣👌👍❤️🇻🇳
Tim I have been a follower from your start. Americans love making war, rest of the world doesn't and we all know the reason, I'm not American but can't you keep your blogs about the better side of life as always. I watch your blogs to enjoy better side of life
Because I'm an American Veteran and my time in that job is a part of who I am.
@ruanava1928 wow that's a bald statement to make, you must be one of those antiwar tree hugger right, it's a great video about our past history and as a former mil veteran myself I can relate to tim anyways bottom line is no one is forcing you to watch so do us a huge favor get lost
Love the videos Tim. What an amazing trip!
Tim, that was so sweet that you prepared dog tag for him back home, thanks for your service.
Best job ever. Thanks USA
Your trip is so cool, wish I was along. Great travel companions also, trip wouldn't be the same without them. Keep the entertainment coming. Thanks.
Tim you are a legend. Your cheery smile in the face of all adversity is a tonic. I hope your place in the Philippines is patched up - I felt for you so much when I saw what the typhoon had destroyed and it made me grateful that my place in Thailand can’t suffer a similar fate since we are 500 km from the coast. In gratitude Chris
TimK, you are amazing. To soldier through that mish mash is more than any man should have to go through. You gotta get up to 500k subs with this series. So entertaining. You and BandB make a great comedy team. Epic Tim...just epic.
I have been subscribed to BnB and watched loads but this was better filmed than all his put together. Ok a bit harsh but ... The filming was better and even the interactions with B n B were kinder to him, he came over as more interesting.
What does RV mean?
I would have bought every one of those medals TimK. The history of those pieces is priceless. I would have paid you double for all of them myself.
Some looked fake, others looked legit. I looked up the writing on mine on google images and it seems to be real. Either way, it’s a memory I have for all those Vietnam vets I’ve spent time with at the Long Beach VA.
Great video, Tim. Keep them comming.
Thank you for another awesome video Tim
Great video! I love the history. Backpacker Ben is still sour. lol
Thank you, Tim. That was a very enjoyable video. I think your stop at the old military base must have been quite emotional for you. I hope you have completely dried out now!
Hi Tim, 🇻🇳 video, keep going, waiting for more...the adventure continues.
Awesome place thanks I enjoyed watching
This is turning out to be some trip, I love this channel. What a blast..
Amazing trip mate!!! Cant wait to watch the rest of it
Another great video Tim!
Brilliant! Keep it up! No surrender!
Thanks for bringing us along mate.
They say differing boxing styles make great fights, and it seems to be the same case here as differing types of vloggers with their own unique style making some great content together. Bravo! BTW, nice touch with the matching dog tags. And I hope all 3 of you reunite for another road trip in the not-so-distant future.
you guy should visit vietnam when summer come~ winter in SE Asia is really hard to enjoy! sorry for my broken english
I always enjoy your videos. I think this trip is some of your best work yet. Having a good sense of Humor. I can vision your old lady expressing her dislike of the wet ride. Lol.
Happy B-day, lovi it when you guys are happy in the poring could rain, 😂 Amazing trip🏋🏻♀️🤟🏋🏻♀️
In 1969 I spent several nights in the Transit Barracks at MCAS El Toro , I was with Guys just returned from Vietnam , I did not realize it at the Time but these Guys just a Year older then Me were Heros , veterans of Hue and Khe Sahn they had seen some s--it and were here telling me about it , one Guy was telling me that in His Squad He and His Squad Leader were the only Infantry Marines left , the rest had been pulled from the Service units and became infantry these guys were just as much Heros as those that Raised the Flag at Iwo Jima
Happy Birthday to your Mom (and you)!🎉 Appreciate your respect for the military in front of the many thousands of viewer’s that will see this. I’m sure you’re learning about bringing “American-sized” wet gear when in Vietnam (and neighboring countries). 👍🏻
Or he could have bought two of the kind he used in this video, and put the second one in front to cover his belly.
🤣👍👍 2 thumbs up for the rainy soaked trip. Hot food will keep you guys warmed up. Amazing journey guys. Thanks for the video of a place far far away in a time long ago to present.
This video was hilarious 😂 loved it🥰Mr Bald 😂 you have a wonderful birthday 🎂 great video and I love the channel 🥰all 3
Glad you had some friends with you on this trip.
Very cool Tim k 👍 getting to visit and getting a medal 🏅 from somewhere you wanted to be awesome 👍
Great trip . Glad you have all stuck at it. I’ve watched Balds and Backpacker Bens videos as well. Great content from all three of you. More of these future collaborations please. Maybe Harald Baldr can join the party.
Happy birthday loving the new videos with bald in Vietnam 🇻🇳 very good content Big fan
Happy Birthday Tim. Love these Vietnam episodes, especially this one because of Khe Sanh and can't wait for the Hue location because of Tet.
sadly not much of Hue, although the city is amazing. great spot. it was raining so hard and we were smoked. sorry dude :(
@@TimKyoutube It's ok, I,ve seen videos and read about the fighiting in Hue. You guys have experienced the rain, and feel for the soldiers who were there. Enjoy the rest of your adventure in Vietnam, looking to more of this trip.
@@TimKyoutube ahh, a pity. I was kinda hoping you’d visit the Hue’s Imperial City.
That there is infantry weather. Another great video sir.
Enjoyed watching your adventure with Bald and Ben 😊😊😊
Ben is a real winger, isn’t he...?
Happy belated Birthday Tim!
Happy belated birthday Tim 🎂
Great video!!
That gay
12:43 that Transition 😂
Happy Birthday to you Tim K have a Merry Christmas all of you
Sitting here for fourth day of cold rain really set the atmosphere for this vid. Grateful that it showed the steaming bowl of pho, mentally comforting for me as much as it was for you I'm sure but completely jealous of the spa. Great vid, great souvenir you purchased.
Like your style Tim....Good video mate. Greetings from Ireland. Subscribed :)
great content! you and fellas are hilarious together
That hotel was a incredible looking place to stay wow an a spa good times they treat you like a king there very good service
Happy Birthday Tim 🎂 🥳 🎉 🎈 🎁 🎊 I hope you had an amazing time!!!
Great series Tim specially as you have both the legend that is B & B in tow and also B & B junior
Driving under the rain is extremely dangerous especially when you are on national highway. You may not realize but it also drains you out really quick. Great video and have a safe trip man!
That was an awesome adventure thanks for taking us along for the ride bud can't wait for the next one... and in the words of Harold dam u Tim k and ur trekking shoes 🤣🤣🤣 maybe he'll join ur next crazy adventure
Now that Pho looks amazing ! 👍
Perfect gift for Mr. Bald!!
you are a respectful man Tim, good job
I’m new to your channel. I’m loving it…fyi I’m also Vietnamese myself left in 1985. Thanks for sharing Tim 👍👍👍
that soup looked amazing. You are a respectful man Tim, good job
Stick it out boys, nice weather down here in the south 😉 Happy Birthday Tim!
We done a tour in 2019 . Loved it one of the best place's we been too . Very friendly and so cheap. Loved the street food
Happy birthday Tim nice deal giving bald the tag , I hope he repays you 👍
Tim K ….loved, loved you and BB in Vietnam, I missed u 2 so much. All the way from San Francisco, Calif🤘🏼
Loving this series Tim, always wanted to go, One day mate : @ ) Tnx for sharing with us : @ )
Man, I'm loving each and every video of yours ever since I found you! :D
Hi Tim Hue sure didn't look like that in 1968 ! Dry clothes is non existent great blog, high light of my day! Take care Tim, stay safe
Thanks Otto 🤙🤙
Hue? No Hue! lol.
Thanks for the content!
"I didn't know it could possibly rain so much and I'm English" hahaha 🤣
Loving this series. Always wanted to do a bike tour of Vietnam, when's the non-rainy season though? I think I'll wait 😅
My good friend lived and fought on hill 861 Marines thank you my Brother cheers!
That's a good piece of history you got. My dad was Army artillery during the Vietnam War. My best friend lost his dad there. SSG Aleki Jeremia.
Tim, I'm glad your our representative on this trip. It's good to see you again
Nice episode, thanks for sharing. I wouldn’t be brave enough to drive a motorbike in SEA - something goes wrong, it’s the foreign guy’s fault. Enjoyed watching the journey this far!
This trip has been amazing a lot of history. A lot of amazing people, the Vietnam people, are so inviting and friendly seeing where part of my family fought is remarkable. Thanks, Tim
Much respect to those who went before.
Editing remark, lmao! GREAT vid Tim/fellas, thanks bukku. Instant classic lol. Stay well and safe gang.
Powerful & touching video visiting Khe Sanh! This will bring back many memories to those that served there. Looks horrible driving the bikes in the rain storm. I saw you squeezing the water out of your shoes once you got out of the rain. Interesting looking soup. Good curb side service at the hotel. Nice hotel room with a decent Western toilet. Th jacuzzi was a nice treat after that long trip in the rain on the bike.
Don't forget it's still hot out there even when it rains.
@@tonyclough9844 🙂
When you bit the chicken head haha 🤣🤣🤣 This series is so good.
4:00 the mist, the rain, the legend
Pho!!! Now I'm hungry for it. Great weather for it. It looks the same here today and over the last week. Thanks Tim lol. I'm in NE Oklahoma, where in the heck am I going to find a big bowl of beef noodle Pho? At the local Vietnamese place of course lol. Biting into the chicken head had me ROLLING. I can't eat something that's looking back at me, unless it's for survival purposes. We are sure funny about our food in the states. Thank you for another wonderful video. My uncle was an MP there, during the war. My college professor as well. He wrote a book called "Redleg". Anyway, I'm babbling. Thank You!!!
Fantastic
Tim I had two brothers who went to Vietnam and it was very blessed that they came home thank you for sharing this video and for your service seeing the Chinook reminds me of photos my brother showed me he was part of airborne division stay safe
I’ve met so many at the VA who are awesome men. I’m the first from my family since WW2.
@@TimKyoutube Awesome Tim I bet that was such an honor
Of course you would appreciate being there so much more than Ben and Bald. This is a good video. Perhaps some Leyte gulf videos about military things would be cool too Tim.
Y’all are the Soggy Bottom Boys!
Seeing Tim and Ben not get on is the best part of this series.
Ben been nasty as the rainy weather LoL
@@Connie_From_AZ stop recording me, is always the best line 😂
Great video, Tim. It is always a pleasure to watch your travels and the icing on the cake when treated to your family and/or friends joining you. It's clear you enjoy having them come along. I love watching all of you guys. Now, that doesn't mean that I don't enjoy your videos when you're alone. Just want to make myself clear on that. Take good care! 🙂😊🤗
“I had know idea that was the head!” Quote of the Trip! Keep up the Great Videos Sir!
seriously didnt know till i edited the vid
I hope one day I can afford to travel like this.
Enjoying it
Tim awesome video
Happy belated birthday Tim! 😊
There still haven't run out of the medals and coins they were selling them 25 years ago and I didn't believe they were real then.
Glad you enjoyed yours.
I'm flying to vegas to sell it at pawn stars on monday
@@TimKyoutube Ha Ha good luck.
Great series Tim. Hope to see you all collaborate again sometime soon, maybe Harald will come along as well next time.
