It's awesome that so many of you are enjoying this video and i'm so glad that it has helped inspire people to do things on their own :) I have some video projects coming soon so make sure you subscribe! cheers for all the love!
I find that there's something really honorable in being OK with doing things solo. Especially now when everyone seems to want validation through others, with social media, lots of people can't do it I bet
Evan Lasrich yeah that’s why he filmed it the whole time to post it to you tube. He did it for the publicity of doing it alone so your statement makes no fucking sense. The only thing anyone cares about is how they’re viewed online.
This was a great experience video! Way better than all those videos that use drones and only film pretty people. This was authentic. The comical tragedies were spot on. Great stuff!
I have been 2 years now...While I bet it would cost a bit more to bring with you, I HIGHLY recommend a Kodiak tent to at least give you some shelter from the dust. As far as going solo goes, I almost did that last year but, fortunately, was invited by the lead of a local camp, I had no knowledge of, to join them. I am really happy I took him up on the invite. I have become very good friends with several of my camp mates and plan to continue camping with them in the future. With them being local, it makes me feel better about being a part of this group since I can help out before, during and after the burn. Also, I quit drinking over 2 years ago and am glad I can enjoy Burning Man so much with out my mind being altered. I remember EVERYTHING...lol
Remember me? I was in your camping ⛺️ area. I walked into the camp & I said...as a joke ‘Come with me if you wanna buy drugs’ & you sprung up from your seat 💺 like someone had injected you with adrenaline 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 best memory!
Could you imagine driving at night , and coming over the mountains in the desert , and seeing all those lights , fire and all the partying and activity . You might think you entered the twilight zone. Farout.
I rode in with some friends doing an installation but other than that I was solo the entire burn (except for the time I spent with all of the awesome new friends I made which was every waking moment besides what little sleep I did get). Met some amazing people and several new friends I'll have for life. Into the dust & to the wolves. Best way to experience anything, especially a soul journey like the burn
I was in the teddy bears room! Also saw the Two Giraffes performance as well. This video made me miss Burning Man so much. Thanks for capturing and sharing your journey for us!
Yeah, either go with an experienced person, or read all you can on being prepared. Haven't gone yet, myself, but still hope to some day. Best from Indiana!
First time I went alone too. Thanks to online communities I was able to learn a lot in the two weeks I had to prepare. I was only coming from LA, so about 600 mile drive pretty convenient really. I used the "Burner Virgins" group on facebook to find a camp (which I thought you had to have, I didn't realize that it was mostly just open camping XD) though that turned out to be fun having a 'home base.' My neighbours ended up becoming great friends and I camp with them now; I went to two of their wedding a couple months ago. I also drove somebody up there who needed a ride; I met her by posting on the burner rideshare page that I had extra space in my car. So it wasn't 100% alone in that regard, but I consider it alone since I walked into the room knowing nobody and made friends once inside. My tip: just cover food, water, shelter, and clothing for the week; everything else is a bonus. You can find ways to get involved ahead of time or when you get there. Everyone is really open to offering and accepting help since there aren't any hidden/transactional motives. And stay away from the main "Burning Man" facebook group - sometimes you find good humour, but it's mostly a bunch of trash-talking and arguing like the rest of the Internet. Very NOT-burner attitudes and vibes in there. You may find local burner groups that meet at bars or somewhere (not right now obv, but when things are more normal again). It'll be the best thing you do for yourself!
Went solo in 2017 after my friend bailed. I too found it hard. you meet so many cool people but then you never see them again because it's so huge and there's so much going on. When I go back I'll be joining a real camp. I think that'll improve the experience quite a bit.
Hey Scotty, awesome video, really describes someones experiences for their 1st Burning Man. Was nice meeting you last year, was my 1st also. I was one of the Hoverlandians hanging out under the shade. I can even see my tent in the first few minutes.
Absolutely loved it. I am 100% going next year due to your vlog. You sir are a dude, if you go again in 2019 it would be an honour to hang out with you!!!
18:56 Can you see one guy walking through the fire? everyone yell "get out!" and we can see one guys shadow of leg crossing fire field from the right side to left to center of fire field. that's me. :)
Dude this is fkn awesome !! Solo aussie traveler myself, spent the whole of last year living in europe on my own (but never alone). Cant wait to do Burning Man next
Dude, this is an AWESOME video! Was having a little FOMO for not being there this year and your little jewel of a video made me almost feel like I made it out to the 2018 Burn! Thanks much!
I'm the same way. Every night after I fall asleep I never know what happens. It's as if I was asleep and couldn't tell what was actually happening because of being asleep. Its is crazy. It has been happening to me every night for as far back as I can remember.
Omg I was there 14 days and you saw more than me. Awesome video thank you for showing people the real burning man. Not a bunch of wannabee models in clean clothes. You never see that and this proves it. Please when they say dusty they mean it. Enclosed tent next time. Thanks again. Venice burn this weekend. Whoohoo!
HI Scotty, Way to go. I had my first burn also and travelled over alone from Australia. Sure was an eye opener. SO much to see and do and so much I didnt see. Missed out on getting naked and washed down but did walk in to a bar at the right time offering Absinth and got excited when I spun the wheel and got the bar tenders special, but to my shocked surprise it was no drink - As I got spanked and slapped from both ends - I think I needed that - I was then ready for burning man. Actually probably still not prepared till we finally were at one with the dust way out as far as we could ride as the temple burned. It was a beautiful moment with great friends. We finally got lost - pretty damn funny. I was then a dark wad all the way home on a Yellow or should I say green bike with no lights (as mine disappeared, but all part of the fun) it made strange sounds with every peddle, but we eventually found our way back to camp to change it up to discover what else we could find in the night/morning ahead. What an ADVENTURE!!!! Till next time )"(
I could never in a million years go to the burning man festival. "Burners" are definitely cut from a different cloth. The art is amazing but everything else looks like absolute hell to me.
I did that in 2016 and it turned out awesome! If you go into a free-camping area you'll generally form a camp pretty quickly. It's probably nearly impossible to bring other people if you're traveling that far.
i would actualy really enjoy going alone. id feel like i got so much more done on my own and expirienced so much by myself. i am a total introvert so thats probably why but i really think that would be a fun expirience P.S. alcohol is a crazy drug mate!
Jeff, yeap, I feel the same way hands down. I have also heard that people that go alone frequently end up finding adopted families/camps. The catch with going alone though is, it's much more logistically difficult.. you have to bring a ton of stuff. Tent, shade structure(one with room to hang in AND to go over your tent), food, water, grey water disposal etc. You could go easy on food and eat out of cans etc for a week but.. ugh. no. Precook, vacuum seal and freeze everything. Then heat it up in the freezer bag in warm water for like 30mins on the playa.. reuse the same water to do so as much as possible.
Best Burning Man video ever - great to see it from a fellow Aussie’s point of view! I travelled around the USA on my own for 6 1/2 weeks but didn’t do Burning Man lol 😂
Your poor tent!!! My first burn was about 18 years ago and we had alot of similar experiences. That blackout being one of them. Live and learn definately a theme on the playa. Will you return and what will you improve?
Went last year with a friend who this year doesn't want to go. So I'm left to make the decision to go alone or not go. Did you feel like it was a good idea for yourself?
I nearly went in 2016 and was even staying at the Green Tortoise Hostel, who are the only authorised tour providers for it, but decided not to as it was a lot of prep for 1 person already travelling for month. If I would go again, it would be alone. 99% of the time I travel alone and I have a much better and rewarding time for it. I have met so many wonderful people travelling and you make many friends who invite you back, which doesn't really happen when you are not alone.
Good for you! I wasn't alone when I went for my first time in 2017, but I did do most of my exploration alone, and it was a fabulous experience. We enjoyed watching your video and congratulate you on your solo adventure! Next time, look us up. We'll be there....
i just discovered this festival and part of me wants to go to experience this for the first time and vlog it but the other part says be careful! So many things to get checked when it comes to safety! It must be one of a kind experience.
The car tower was just absurd. When we first got to our camp, our lead said " you must go to this, it's gonna get shut down". It was also my bf's first year.
A very cool video of your experience. The night you blacked out, at least your camera and bike stayed with you. :) A great experience. I hope to make it one day myself. With a couple of friends though. cheers Mate!
You need to take your own outfits. The camp I got a few things from was called costume cult. They gift you some things to help you with your style and all they ask is for you to walk down there catwalk in your new look
Thanks, I love it. Having a major case of playa blues here, you camped about 4 tents away of me from what I see. It was my first year as wel and I like to see the different experiences at bm Thanks I needed this
Hey man! I've never been to a Burning Man but I'm planning on it! How did you get there? Did you get a ride there and then just kept all your stuff in the tent? Food, water, etc.?
I got a few questions since I kinda want to go experience this alone maybe.. did Carpool with someone? Could i park my car next to my tent?How did you shower? Did you cook your food or did you buy food once there?
My wife and I came across your video last night and about lost our shit when we realized you were actually our fucking neighbor in Hoverlandia! @ :56 seconds in, our tent is the tan canvas with the yellow bins around it. You can actually see me in a few frames @ 1:02 working on my wife's bike. Great video too, gives a good look at what it's actually like out there.
John Boscogolvitch my point was to know if such a person could enjoy the experience, especially if they weren't into drugs or alcohol and was straight, but of course shy.
I'm introverted with major anxiety issues. I've never done Burning Man, but would love to someday. Although I don't know if it's a festival I would be able to handle solo. I've done many festivals in the US and Europe alone (EDC, Tomorrowland, TomorrowWorld, Dreamstate, etc), but Burning Man isn't the typical concert style festival which makes it seem intimidating to do alone.
@@8oh8ryan Go for it dude! You seem to be more outgoing than you may think if you've already been to said festival's. Never been myself but everyone seems so welcoming! There is a channel called YesTheory that I've been watching for years, they make really creative videos on getting out of their comfort zone. Next week they are bunjee jumping out of a helicopter with Will Smith 😆
Yet, billions of grown adults go to Disney World and amusement parks every year. Did they never grow up too? If you have a fullfilling life, I guess you can stop going to festivals, art shows, concerts, watching fireworks, water parks, eating ice cream cones, i.e. things that are FUN.
I am thinking to do Burning Man. I have never done it, and don't have connections who would be able to do it or who would want to do it with me. What would you say were the most challenging aspects of doing it solo?
I was there that year but totally missed the fireworks >_< so mind boggling how there's so much going on that one can totally miss an entire fire work show
Hi, I got to burning man on the burner express bus and they have a camp there you can join when you arrive called ‘hoverlandia’, if you need more info they have a Facebook group you can join :)
has anyone else ever noticed usually at the beginning the weather is terrible and then its pretty bareable other than the heat for the rest of the week?
great video, well done and put together... the whole atmosphere would have to be surreal... no doubt... a great distraction from life for a while... like living in a si-fi movie for a while... thanks to you this is now kinda on my bucket list if I really honestly had one...
Great video and awesome that you made this journey by yourself. I have this on my bucket list. I think in the teddy bear tent there was a body in there besides you. lol Thank you for sharing your story.
It really depends on how you do it, I spent roughly $2000 on flights, bus to black rock city with the burner express, camping gear, bike, bike transport with the bus and food
ANNOUNCEMENT! The Adult CHOCOLATIER will be on mainstreet Cedarville this year 2019! Blessed chocolate's 2019 Same great price, same organic exotic ingredients and vacuum sealed for toss in the cooler ease. (Moved booth from the last fuel stop Rabbit Trax to mainstreet Cedarville ) Look for the big white and red stepvan on mainstreet Cedarville.
I don't know, I found this all so depressing & sad really... Perhaps it was the way the video was put together but the Festival seemed even more artificial than usual..
You have to bring everything you need to sustain your life for a week. Food, water, shelter, clothing etc. You are not able to purchase anything there, because it is an event that wants to be free from the advertising, marketing and selling of goods. One of the principles of Burning Man is Gifting. People gift food and drinks,and other things, and share with one another, but you need to be prepared to be self reliant. So the only things you can purchase are ice ( to maintain cold food temperatures and keep people from getting sick from spoiled food ) and coffee. The proceeds from the sales of coffee go to support different local charities in the Northwest area of Nevada, so they are not trying to profit from the sales. Think of it like you would, it if you were to be going out into the middle of the wilderness in the mountains.
It's awesome that so many of you are enjoying this video and i'm so glad that it has helped inspire people to do things on their own :) I have some video projects coming soon so make sure you subscribe! cheers for all the love!
3rd year in a row!
I have been there but I would like to go I'm 27 and hope that one day I could meet u that be cool
Have not been there sorry about that man
I find that there's something really honorable in being OK with doing things solo. Especially now when everyone seems to want validation through others, with social media, lots of people can't do it I bet
totally agree! i also thin i would really enjoy going solo and would get a lot out of it by doing so
never underestimate the buddy system's usefulness at a festival
Evan Lasrich yeah that’s why he filmed it the whole time to post it to you tube. He did it for the publicity of doing it alone so your statement makes no fucking sense. The only thing anyone cares about is how they’re viewed online.
People hating on the idea of going alone (with or without posting it on social media) are just too weak or scared to do it themselves, lol.
I'll remember honorable next time I make love alone lol
This was a great experience video! Way better than all those videos that use drones and only film pretty people. This was authentic. The comical tragedies were spot on. Great stuff!

Lol loved your comment! It's not truly burning man without drugs
this is an actual video that i wanted to see of burning man fest... i mean its gives an authentic feel about the fest
Could you imagine driving at night , and coming over the mountains in the desert , and seeing all those lights , fire and all the partying and activity . You might think you entered the twilight zone. Farout.
How brave to go there on your own!! Your black out drunk explanation had me in stitches. Awesome video. 💙🙏
I rode in with some friends doing an installation but other than that I was solo the entire burn (except for the time I spent with all of the awesome new friends I made which was every waking moment besides what little sleep I did get).

"will do it all again tonight" bahaha. Good attitude champ!
I was in the teddy bears room! Also saw the Two Giraffes performance as well. This video made me miss Burning Man so much. Thanks for capturing and sharing your journey for us!
I want to go so bad but I don’t know anyone down to go with me. I would LOVE to go solo! The only thing I’m worried about is not being prepared 😭
Just do it!
Same worry here, before I go in 2021 I’ll have to find some people going solo and go with them.
Yeah, either go with an experienced person, or read all you can on being prepared. Haven't gone yet, myself, but still hope to some day. Best from Indiana!

Had the pleasure of travelling from England and doing burning man alone this year . Amazing video man, really captures the feel!

Did you bring drugs
How do you join a camp?
welcome home, been burning for the last 7 years... traveling from australia is hard ever year but it gets better :)

I was there by myself too for the most part, incredible experience. I slept by the burning ashes of the man
Dude, you got roofie'd. Great video.
Was thinking the same thing but with a train added to it
I'm the same way. Every night after I fall asleep I never know what happens. It's as if I was asleep and couldn't tell what was actually happening because of being asleep. Its is crazy. It has been happening to me every night for as far back as I can remember.

Sounds like you had an awesome time! It’s so great that everyone at black rock city can have totally different experiences
Cool vid man. You documented your experience well with no bs from a solo burners perspective and being your true self. Actually watched the whole vid.
I could never in a million years go to the burning man festival. "Burners" are definitely cut from a different cloth. The art is amazing but everything else looks like absolute hell to me.

lots of welcoming camps to help you in placement, food sharing, and camaraderie. I hope you go at some point in your life.

I’ve done it solo many times. I prefer it. I Almost always got adopted into a bigger camp, but I like knowing I CAN do it solo.
You got drunk?! Dude it's burning man drop a tab!
Great job scotty!!! That was excellent coverage of the event. I have watched other videos; this one covers it very well....thanks
I nearly went in 2016 and was even staying at the Green Tortoise Hostel, who are the only authorised tour providers for it, but decided not to as it was a lot of prep for 1 person already travelling for month.

I flew solo. Arrived not knowing a soul. Best way.
Good on ya mate. Beautifully done. Enjoyed seeing all the sites again through your eyes. Hope to see you back on the playa!
Thank you for sharing! I feel like I was with you...you were not alone!
Looking back at your video make me want to go back! It was nice seeing you back there at HoverLandia.
I am planning to go solo. there are going to be so many new beautiful people to share that amazing experience with. Thank you for the video!
I camped 20 meters away from you! That is so cool that you went solo as well! :D
I loved the “fingers up my spine". I can’t believe you were alone very often. You are so very charming
Guy bro! Cuz, URS is the vidi keep coming back to my. Thanks for the real experience. I'm going solo next year!
Good for you! I wasn't alone when I went for my first time in 2017, but I did do most of my exploration alone, and it was a fabulous experience. We enjoyed watching your video and congratulate you on your solo adventure! Next time, look us up. We'll be there....
It looks so hot there! I guess going alone is similar to camping + partying alone?

This was a great vid on the experience one might have. The two people fucking near the bar and it was normal is fing great! Thx for sharing.
Dayum. That's what I don't wanna see. I thought it was about art and spirituality. So it's just degenerates sitting?
@@olliefoxx7165 It can be a bit of both it's what you make it from what I'm seeing which is what makes it so special
The car tower was just absurd. When we first got to our camp, our lead said " you must go to this, it's gonna get shut down". It was also my bf's first year.
Amazing! I'm go to all festivals by my own too! And is definitely an amazing experience! GREAT video!!
A very cool video of your experience. The night you blacked out, at least your camera and bike stayed with you. :) A great experience. I hope to make it one day myself. With a couple of friends though. cheers Mate!
How was rogue camping? Was it very far out from esplanade? Thinking about it this year, afraid it’ll be too far away
Damn that fake moon. Also props to you for getting this video out so soon. I'm still sorting though my photos.
That was so cool Scotty
Thank you for sharing your burn with us. Brilliant. Cheers!
best week of my life! cheers for sharing legend!
Do you bring your own costumes or how does it work? I saw you went into the costume shop. Are items for sale/trade/borrow?
You need to take your own outfits. The camp I got a few things from was called costume cult. They gift you some things to help you with your style and all they ask is for you to walk down there catwalk in your new look
Thanks, I love it.
Having a major case of playa blues here, you camped about 4 tents away of me from what I see.
It was my first year as wel and I like to see the different experiences at bm
Thanks I needed this
What is playa blues mate?
The Fake Moon was THE BEST !!!
I don't understand, like, how high up was it??
Hey man! I've never been to a Burning Man but I'm planning on it! How did you get there? Did you get a ride there and then just kept all your stuff in the tent? Food, water, etc.?
I got a few questions since I kinda want to go experience this alone maybe.. did Carpool with someone? Could i park my car next to my tent?How did you shower? Did you cook your food or did you buy food once there?

haha thats awesome! it's a shame we didn't meet.
haha thats awesome! it's a shame we didn't meet.

I've always wondered what doing Burning Man solo would be like. Thanks for sharing! )i(
Love the vlog style videos man. Should hit more festivals and do more!
Diggin thatChronix tune at the end❤️💛💚

0:30 wow i hope you brought more supplies than that unless youre part of a good camp (havent watched full vid yet)
Excellent video! Thanks for sharing your Playa experience
If is score a ticket I will be going alone this year, THANK you for this.
I was there that year but totally missed the fireworks >_< so mind boggling how there's so much going on that one can totally miss an entire fire work show
So crazy! You can never see everything, but thats what makes everyones experience unique and different
This guys literally complaining about dust in the desert! 😂😂😂
AND he is from Australia! You might be able to understand an Inuit complaining about the desert sand.
Yeah, where the hell did all this sand come from? Can't a man enjoy the vacuum of space in peace! 😭
Geez Scotty, WHAT did happen- something sore?
Love love your video it’s realest, please tell me how do you find a group to camp with???
Hi, I got to burning man on the burner express bus and they have a camp there you can join when you arrive called ‘hoverlandia’, if you need more info they have a Facebook group you can join :)
Is the playa hard enough to ride scooters on?..
total madness!!!! totally artificial!!! stay safe man!!! looks like you are having an experience!!!
Looks amazing minus the dust cause I wear contacts 😂thinking of going next year 🍻
has anyone else ever noticed usually at the beginning the weather is terrible and then its pretty bareable other than the heat for the rest of the week?
Scott you are awesome. I'd go to burning man with you.
The people with fifth wheels are the smart ones.
I went solo but once your there your family. Hung out with Popeye also known as Jimmy The P.O.M. from your home.
great video, well done and put together... the whole atmosphere would have to be surreal... no doubt... a great distraction from life for a while... like living in a si-fi movie for a while... thanks to you this is now kinda on my bucket list if I really honestly had one...
Great video and awesome that you made this journey by yourself. I have this on my bucket list. I think in the teddy bear tent there was a body in there besides you. lol Thank you for sharing your story.
I’m going alone for my first burn --best way to explore
someone took the bottom half of your tent!
I did a solo Burn in 2018. Best Burn yet!
I think they seriously need to find a new location. I’d never camp in a desert.

If you can't remember what happened last night.
It's probably just as well someone put that comfy seat in your bicycle.
😂
just from the first minute you notice that Burning Man Festival isn't really like the typical festival
Because it’s not a festival ;)
I’m the Scottish, you seem like a chill dude. Keep being dope.

"You guys found anything yet?"
"We ain't found shit!"
Mad MAXX.. lungs and dust... all of you. Hospitalized.
Luving This....Thx Scotty
I would go on my own, but would be easier with someone who had already been...
just wondering how much it cost to go to burning man from Australia?
It really depends on how you do it, I spent roughly $2000 on flights, bus to black rock city with the burner express, camping gear, bike, bike transport with the bus and food

Look for the big white and red stepvan on mainstreet Cedarville.
Hi Lili! Would you happen to know anyone who might have two tickets for sale?
I don't know, I found this all so depressing & sad really... Perhaps it was the way the video was
put together but the Festival seemed even more artificial than usual..
how did u get food and drinks etc? water?
You have to bring everything you need to sustain your life for a week. Food, water, shelter, clothing etc. You are not able to purchase anything there, because it is an event that wants to be free from the advertising, marketing and selling of goods. One of the principles of Burning Man is Gifting. People gift food and drinks,and other things, and share with one another, but you need to be prepared to be self reliant. So the only things you can purchase are ice ( to maintain cold food temperatures and keep people from getting sick from spoiled food ) and coffee. The proceeds from the sales of coffee go to support different local charities in the Northwest area of Nevada, so they are not trying to profit from the sales.
Think of it like you would, it if you were to be going out into the middle of the wilderness in the mountains.
Good on you m8 - great experience
One big FREAKSHOW!!!
