imagine you went to go running in the morning, and there's these two guys at your usual track. one is clearly recording the other, who is wolfing down donuts before sprinting around the track over and over even after he threw up. finally, he collapses on the ground. his friend, without any context, says "Are you ready to go to Italy?"
thank you this is the funniest mental image i can possibly imagine
It would be a joy to have something this interesting happen in front of me
Imagine if someone replied "I was there that afternoon lmao"
This is why I love living in NYC, I wouldn’t even give this a second guess.
lmao in nyc no one would even care
"If it makes you feel any better, we're going to be leaving the country immediately." is my new favorite line
I would love a scenario in which I can use that line.
@@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721 here's a scenario: person 1:i think we accidentally murdered someone
You: if it makes you feel any better we're going to be leaving the country immediately
Which is not a great scenario but it is one
@@indominusrex1652 💀
Even as an aviation enthusiast I don't have the dedication that Sam does to make a *spreadsheet of every transatlantic flight from the U.S.*
I wonder if it is accessible anywhere!
@@smokingspitfire1197 I mean there is a list of Wikipedia, thats a good starting point
Sam's uncanny ability to always know which flight Ben and Adam took returns
That's honestly what annoyed me most about the connect4 videos. They put the rule in that they wouldn't know where the other team was until they claimed the state.. but he knew what state they were in and recognized the airline gate..so he knew exactly where they were going.
I know wasn't exactly against the rules but to me.. it still feels a little cheap and unsportsmanlike. I'm not crazy about him starting it up again in this series.
But what do I know.. this is still an extremely entertaining video series.
@@Dsgreenly I see it more as an earned skill. He's not cheating to know where they are, just using his knowledge and deduction skills
@@coltonpiano7969 Right. I imagine everyone having positive and negative traits. eg:
Sam:
+ Brain is full to the brim with airline trivia
+ Can use thorough knowledge of airlines to spy on opponents
- Lazy
- Overconfident
Adam:
+ Not afraid to do the hardest of challenges
- Unlucky
@@Dsgreenly also, ben and adam knew that sam would almost certainly take the flight to phoenix in connect 4 so they were able to screw up his plan a bit so both sides can predict what flight the other is on
@@EpicGamerzism they were hoping that he'd go there, but they didn't know for sure. Sam straight up looked at the flights and saw that there was only one flight going to a state they needed. But apparently I'm the only one that feels this way so I'll shut up. I'm not knocking the series.. I'm genuinely excited for the rest of the episodes.
Adam is a fucking trooper for that pastry mile. God damn that was brutal
The red velvet donuts were a bad idea. There's no way I would have eaten that much red velvet.
@@ReelPodcasts If you're going to have to eat that many donuts while exercising, get raised donuts that aren't so dense.
@@ReelPodcasts right. I’d be picking something as light as possible
@@ChrisHockman Yeah, it would've been smart to go with something like a rugelach that's made for you to eat multiple at once.
Yeah, they literally just picked the worst possible pastry they could for that challenge and made it 10 times harder on themselves
Even having done track in high school and being able to run a sub 5 minute mile that pastry mile sounds like absolute hell to do.
That's the stuff of nightmares imo
I'd have trouble eating 4 donuts in 15 minutes, much less running a mile at the same time
And why did they choose CAKE DONUTS??
should have REALLY taken lighter pastries lol
Pe humblebrag
Ben and adams are the comedic duo with goblin energy travelling across the world that I always wanted but didn't knew I did.
Couldn't have put it into words better myself :-) meaning goblin in the most respectful way possible of course!
@@cheaterman49"goblin" is surely one of the greatest mark of honor that can be bestowed on man to be sure.
@@realityapostasy2158 Hahahahahaha as long as they agree it's fine I suppose :-D
"Ben and adams"
inspired by Ben & Jerry's
Doesn’t one of them write the HAI vids?
If you need contestants for a season 2, THE VLOGBROTHERS ARE READY. -John
omg that would be awesome
+
That will be so goooood
Yes! Vlogbrothers and airports, this is meant to be.
Isn't this already season 2? 🤔
Dude that pastry mile was brutal. That needs more of a reward.
Sam from Half as Interesting and Sam from from Wendover should go head to head in one of these challenges. Really want to see who comes out on top
Sam will win!
But have you heard all of the conspiracys that they are one entity?
It would break those conspiracy theorists to learn that they are difrent.
They woild likly revolt or something.
I guess they'd have to have a mirror to see each other eh
Sam of Nebula wins
That'd be a pretty sick april fools video
Joseph hopping up and down in that opening scene absolutely cracks me up. So much more enthusiastic than me
Damn Real Engineering, I always thought you were more of a engineering nerd untill I saw the last series
@@DeepLakeRC I actually hate engineering. I just do this for the clout
@@RealEngineering my perception of reality has been shattered
@@RealEngineering Based
@@RealEngineering have you thought about making videos about racoons instead? it might be more interesting
Sam: They have a huge advantage, we have jobs and they have more free time to strategize
Also Sam: *spends who know how many hours making a spreadsheet of all transatlantic flights*
Rooting for Ben and Adam. It's about time they finally win one.
Although they're not off to a great start, but hey, everyone loves an underdog.
I agree I love there attitude so much I really wanted them to win last time
It always seems like Ben and Adam always have the best plan but are the unluckiest.
I don’t like them, they’re kinda annoying, and Sam is way better! Always rooting for him!
@@boarbot7829 ok boarbot 78
@@boarbot7829 me when I'm wrong
Adam finishing the pastry mile was incredible, give that man a medal
Adam: “Sorry to all the nice people at McCarran park who’s afternoons I’ve ruined.”
Ben: “If it makes you feel any better we’re going to be leaving the country immediately.”
Oh god Ben I love you 💀
I laughed out loud at that
Ben’s commentary and the timing of it during Adam’s mile KILLED me. I’m so sorry Adam
FIRST episode and one of the contestants is already in real physical distress. Now THAT'S content
Can’t keep up that “Adam and Ben aren’t famous thing much longer! Haha. Those two are absolute gems.
It’s incredible to think that, despite the number of times Ben has got drunk in the name of Jet Lag, Adam is the only one who’s tactically chunned so far 😂😂😂🍩🍪🤮
I had a feeling FAI was some air/aviation organization, but for a brief moment, I had wondered if it meant Full As Interesting
Finally, we found it...
It’s the French version of the U.S.’s FAA referenced in an HAI vid from 2018
Sam and Joseph: it's so hard to navigate around this airport!
Meanwhile Adam: *literally dying*
It's so funny to see how Sam is already on his way to Europe and also correctly guesses which flight the other folks are going to take, while they have no clue at all where Sam and Joseph even went initially.
i just wanna say: Thank you! Thank you Sam and Team! I loved the first series and I'm sure I will love this one too! I'm worried tho, are you losing money with these? But thanks for your effort on making good high quality content on TH-cam even outside of this Game and giving creators alternatives with Nebula. And also thanks for giving me a series after Ryan Trahan.
I think they have a sponsorship from Nebula, but I am not sure. Also the 2nd episode is on Nebula
@@FireSpeed-fi5um Maybe I confused it. But wasn't there a platform he helped build up or even founded?
@@fabi6688 Yes, but I'm sure money can still be used from Nebula subscriptions to fund a series that brings more people to the platform
@@itsKyuhl Well either way, he helped build it and it helps creators. :)
@@fabi6688 Yes, that is nebula
I'm an air traffic controller in Miami and I work the flights coming from Cancun to Europe as they cross over south Florida. So happy to help keep Sam and Joseph safe as the make their way around the world!! Go team Jam!! (Joe and Sam)
I hope Joseph remembers that he should avoid Thailand, since that video about the lèse-majesté law could get him in prison.
I forgot about this! Can't wait for their run from the police
Please explain!
Well, I don't expect that there'd be police officers carrying handcuffs just waiting for him at the airport. But if there were, that would be great content.
The ultimate challenge; escaping the Thai police and successfully claiming asylum in a neighbouring country
Wow, wasn't expecting another series so soon - what a treat!
I will always root for Ben & Adam idk their personalities got me hooked
hyped to watch season 2 over the summer!
Me too
YESSS
Can you guys do another state connect 4, you guys put a lot of effort into these kinds of videos and that makes it truly special. I’ve been on TH-cam for 16 years now and I haven’t seen anything like it. Thanks for the good content!
I think they said something about one season being a connect 4, but with European countries. I think that’d be pretty cool
You should watch the uk BBC series race across the world if you like this kind of thing, theres 3 series and its a similar thing (very british and far less planned)
@@psychlops924 that’ll be cool as well but isn’t the borders a bit messy? That’s why they didn’t do east USA.
@@theobrigham thanks I’ll check it out
@@psychlops924 Connect 4 with europen countries can be done in 3 hours though XD, or even less
The Denver airport line was because they evacuated the airport because a tornado touched down on one of the runways, so people had to go through TSA again.
Damn, I can't believe the airport was able to get back to operating after one of their runaways was struck by a tornado, even if it missed the terminals
It looks like this was filmed back in May (also at 6am). The tornado at DIA was in June and the afternoon.
I've been to Denver Airport with no tornado evacuation. The line was still ridiculously long
As someone who lives in Denver, I’ve noticed the line at DIA is always ridiculously long during the off hours, but once they get some more staff in during the day (starting at around 8-9) it usually clears up a bit
Wow. That airport really is cursed, huh?
Ben and Adam absolutely need their own channel or need to host some videos, I would watch the hell out of that!
Same
Glad that Jet Lag: The Game is back - and fitting that this came out while I was on a trip to Melbourne - though I think we all agree that the security queues in airports across the world are ridiculous. Nevertheless, this challenge reminds me of another challenge that Ryan Trahan did, I was too bothered to watch it because Wendover is far more interesting and informative for me.
*SECRET MESSAGE:* _Ben and Adam are at a severe disadvantage. Who knew that low-cost, leisure-focused charter flights are the cheapest way to get to Europe (or to North America) and yet they don't show up on Google Flights? As shocking as this is, the airline (TUI) that Sam and Joseph (RealLifeLore) were on to leave Cancun was predominantly featured in a Wendover episode about why low-cost, long-haul airlines failed. How did Ben and Adam not picked this up while planning for this challenge - especially that they were the channel editors - was utterly astonishing, which proves that in a race around the world, not only you need to be the fastest, but also you need to accomplish this in the cheapest way possible. And that is on top of other unforeseeable circumstances (Remember the delayed flight towards the end of the Connect 4 challenge?) they need to anticipate and that they must exceed the set distance required to complete the race._
_So in summary, they got cocky the last time they tried to beat Sam. Now they had their backs in the wall and it is in the first episode of another Wendover travelling challenge. It's about time that Ben and Adam deserves a challenge victory over Sam, so good luck trying to find their way out of Milan..._
TUI shows up on Google Flights just without the price tag. IMO the best strat would have been to fly to Vegas, do a challenge in the morning and get the afternoon Condor flight to Frankfurt. Then do another challenge in Frankfurt before getting a flight to literally anywhere in Asia.
great video. Feel bad for Ben and Adam about security, Bridge security has saved me soo many time flying out of DIA. North and South security is just notoriously slow. Either way can’t wait for more episodes cause it’s a very interesting season so far.
Tom Scott would also be great on this challenge
yes
I dunno. Tom prefers to be scripted. Matt Grey, the bouncyst man on the Internet, though, might be up for it.
Awesome timing! I just finished binging the first challenge set after discovering the channel this morning!
If there’s a fandom attached to Jet Lag, I’m 100% confident Ben and Adam are shipped together.
Was so pumped to see this in my TH-cam feed! I loved the last series you did, and I think the different system this time with the money & challenges is pretty neat. Excited for the next video!
I love the way you just jump into these and explain it as you go. The pacing is so well done.
Wow, now this is ambitious. Keep going with amazing content!
That last lap with only 2 minutes left and 4 pastries. That's honestly impressive
Lmao, Ben and Adam are sooo much fun. They need to have some subs.
So glad Ben and Adam are in this season. They're really fun to watch! Even if they have 0 subscribers!
I’m so happy I found this channel. Your content is so amazingly entertaining to watch. Stellar job!
You did it. You finally convinced me to get a curiosity stream/nebula subscription. Been hearing the ads for eons and you guys finally convinced me I had to subscribe so I can watch your videos. Congratulations 🎉
The cuts when Adam was throwing up had me dying. So excited for this series
The second one was faked ... still funny tho :3
@@misatzu The second one? As in you think he threw up and then decided to fake throwing up again??? What???? 😂
@@Bisonrulz16 as in the 2nd gag was blurred false barf
@@Bisonrulz16 anybody understood it except 1 🤡
@@misatzu my dude? You came back 3 separate times across an hour to reply to me? Are you okay LOOL
Ah, the joys of travelling with a passport that doen't require visas everywhere....
Been looking forward to this one! Loved the first series and I’m confident this will be even better!!
I've founded you guys a few days ago and really I'm amazed at how good your content is (also been waiting for the next episode of tag game in France 🇫🇷)
Y’all’s ideas are amazing! Great video as always guys !!
This Channel is bound to grow it’s very well edited and a cool concept. This wasn’t the first Jetlag video I saw and when I heard Sam‘s voice for the first time I was going crazy trying to figure out who it was lol
The first person to get convicted of speeding was only going 8 mph
Love your videos, and youre so inspiring. Cant wait to see the whole series!!!
It is incredible how this content is free to watch
The first season pretty much served as a promo for Crime Spree, which is not free to watch ... however I wonder how the ROI for this season works out since this episode barely made $200 in adsense and there's no obvious sponsors (besides the Curiosity bundle clip)
@Jonathan de Kock That's a sample size of one :3 What you said is what I pointed out right away at the beginning. however that doesn't work out quite as well if the content is not exclusive. Do the math based on your own estimations, pretty sure the conclusion will be it doesn't check out. My guess is the total revenue isn't supposed to cover the costs, but just a bit of funding for something they wanted to do anyway (:
adam deserves a gold medal for that pastry mile
I love how this channels has evolved, love the content!
This is quickly becoming my favourite channel. You guys are amazing!
Looks like another fun series! Excited to see the rest!
Love the video! This inspires me to do something like this with my friends.
One little improvement you could make is to leave the lower thirds (text on the left bottom) on for a bit longer in future seasons. It was really hard for me to read (not english native) it during the video. Maybe it was intentional idk, but i think it could improve the already great quality.
I think the only one being *intentionally* short was the "Vomit cut available on Nebula" insert lol
That man photo bombing in the background and then holding back his smile as he tries to play it cool is my spirit animal
17:20
LUV how thought out your rules are for every challenge you guys do. The Arctic circle loop hole was a good catch! 🤣👍🏾
This reminds me of the time I was leaving the air Force Academy and went from Colorado springs to Denver which is a quick flight, but there was a huge layover due to a storm. I got to Denver 5 minutes before my flight boarded and was across the entire airport. I ran so fast through that airport and probably caused so much concern.
I got to the gate and the Denver flight was pushed by another 2 hours for a storm. Luckily got home on time.
This has quickly become my new favourite show on the Internet.
Did anyone else notice when it showed their names how wendover had his subscribers count at 5.95 mil when he only has 3.5 mil??
Awesome series. I'm loving it. Keep it up
One suggestion - extend the episodes by 10mins to be 30mins, you have so much content and the show is AWESOME!
Now they’ve already expanded it to 40-45 minutes long XD
Great game and video!
I really think it would benefit from some route randomness such that pre-planning a route is made impossible or very difficult. For example when the actually starts, each team gets one or two cities (with +- equally strong connections/average prices) that must be transited through along the way. Eg. Cologne, Germany and Split, Croatia.
This could be extended to an Asian city, only discovered by the teams upon reaching Europe, that they must go through.
Penalties for failing a challenge could also include another mandatory stop.
Rewards for very difficult challenges (maybe location dependent - eg Pastry Mile in Baku in 12 minutes) could be giving your opposing team another mandatory stop eastwards from where they are. Or forcing them to miss their next booked flight/take their next flight in business class.
Etc etc.
Hope to see more of these games! Well done.
Those are great suggestions!!
I fully second this!
So glad this is here! Loved the last series and this one seems even better!
big fan! love watching the new eps a week early on nebula, shame the subtitles aren't available
I'm surprised neither team considered flying to Frankfurt on Condor from Vegas or Phoenix, although likely it was due to distance requirements and possibly price as well considering they were allowed to do research beforehand.
I would love if you could add subtitles. As a non-native speaker, some of the things are a lot harder to understand with background noise and masks and all that than a video produced in a professional recording setting is.
They have them on Nebula. Not sure why they didn't get uploaded here.
I loved this so much. I really want more seasons after watching this!
Discovered the channel last week. Been patiently waiting for this.
Fun to see you guys back in action! I only wish that you had explained the rules a little bit better in the beginning.
This puts the Amazing Race to shame, and I love that show! This is the best series on TH-cam!
This channel should explode, such great videos.
Great video idea, and very well planned out too!
Always hashtag team Ben and Adam
Is it just me or these game shows are just brilliant? I just hope that they're all also having fun for real and not just exhausted and burnt out
Tbh I would love to participate in these
Adam I appreciate your dedication!
I love this series. We need more!
Wow cool! You should do more of these kind of video's!

According to an airport worker who I once asked about it, that thing where they make you pick up your boarding pass in person has to do with not having any checked luggage. They basically want every passenger to visit an agent at some point, and if you check your bag that's good enough. But if you don't have a bag to check, they sometimes make it so you can't check in online so that you still interact with a person at the airport.
I’m so invested in this channel, it’s such a cool concept
This is the coolest TH-cam video I have ever seen! This seems like a crazy amount of fun.
Wait, he's the voice behind HAI?
Ben and Adam are my faves!!! Poor Adam on that pastry mile challenge. It's not looking good for them but somehow, I think they're going to pull a victory out of defeat. Go Ben & Adam!!!!!
Yes thank you for making another of these!!!
Running a mile isn’t bad. Eating 4 donuts isn’t bad. Eating 4 donuts while running a mile is insane!! Respect 😂
Tbh I remember when I thought HAI and RLL were the same so these 2 on the same team is kinda cool.
Ha, that's ridiculous. Next you're gonna say HAI and Wendover are the same.
@@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721 That would be especially ridiculous since those two sound _completely_ different ... while HAI and RLL _totally_ sound the same so I wouldn't even know how not to confuse them!
14:34 Everyone else on that track is just lookin at Team Bam and thinkin "What the hell are these two doing!?" xD
Poor Adam tho, he is a winner in our hearts always; just for this run alone. Also, i hope that challenge card got deleted from future cards for the sake of not killin Adam again
Time to rewatch on youtube, just for the extra support for this amazing series
This is one of the most entertaining videos I've ever watched, keep it up :D
Lol, Ben & Adam choosing to go to Sam's most hated airport.
Also, Joseph looks a lot different than I remember from one of his irl videos he has done a few years ago.
They never went to Newark Airport tho...
If Adam and Ben had a channel I would definitely watch it
Same, just found this channel and they are the reason I'm binging
This is an amazing game, great refreshing content as usual.
This show is the closest thing we can get to Where in The World is Carmen San Diego from the 90s! It’s my new obsession, and I love it! The Connect 4 show was good, but taking it international brought it to a whole new level! Please keep making this content. I finally went over to Nebula today just to see the next episode and can’t wait for the next one! I would love to see this expanded in the future to include travel and geography vloggers as guest contestants. Would be a great way to get the word out too 😉 Keep up the great work!
there is a train from milan to lugan for 12 euros per person, you should consider other means of transportation than planes
Considering that they have 100 hours to go around the entire world, anything other than a plane is basically useless.

15 seconds in and I'm already losing it.
Adam and Ben have so much character i love it
The scene in the airport worrying about long security lines and missing the flight make me anxious!! That stresses me out more than anything else. Maybe I should play this game to learn to deal with it!!! Love this channel!
