Hi Todd, have been in hospital for a few days with breathing complications after Covid plus air pollution here in Khon Kaen, so have been binge watching E8, 9 &10! Probably shouldn't be watching because of dusty road! 🤣😂🤣😂 Fantastic roads you are adventuring on, with breath-taking scenery in the breaks in the mist. What a hard life for survival they have farming on those mountains. Do they actually own the land or is it just loaned from the Laos Government. It would be interesting to know the life expectancy of these people as they need to be tough living in such conditions. You, Neenee and Mina are doing such a great job showing us what rural life in Hmong villages is really like. The Troopy is such a great asset and getting you to some amazing places! That village chief who took you in for a meal was a great guy and his bulls were obviously his pride and joy! Keep them coming Todd, convalescence isn't so bad when I can travel with you and the "girls". God bless you all 😀❤🙏
Brilliant video as always. I’ve been quite busy lately and haven’t been able to keep up with your travels. A pleasure watching your adventures. Mina is looking more beautiful each time I see her. NeeNee is looking fabulous. Always praying for your safe trip and good health. Take care and give my love to your beautiful family. Cheers mate.
Todd, You are more brave than I am going across that sketchy bridge.. I wouldn't have been so lucky with clean pants. Kudos to you my friend. What did the Lao beer taste like? All the best. Jim and Harriet 🙏🙏
it’s been a while since i’ve been around your channel. Last time was maybe around 2 years ago before I moved back to Luang Prabang for the semester. I just watched your videos about Mina and i’m so happy you did what you did. I wish you all the best!
Re stuck in 4WD. From my experience ,at times, I just put the car in reverse( slowly) and dis -engage the 4wd gear stick,at the same time.This has worked for me ( toyota cruiser)....Kenno
beer in the morning is good habit. Takes away any hang over. I haven t had any hang overs for about 6 years. You made a good choice with the older but solid land cruiser

Another great vlog Todd Mina is definetly be coming a trouble maker lol 😂 Only good Chinese beer is Tsing Tao Todd Don’t forget mate it’s always 5:00 somewhere The bridge was fine Todd everything is always fine
@ scene 1:33 with the mountain in the background reminds me of the village of where I once lived years ago in Laos and the mists fogging in the early morning look exactly the same 🫵😮 Awesome video ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
An easy way to tell if it is stuck in 4 wheel drive is at low speed turn the steering full lock left or right and you can feel the front wheels grabbing as the rear wheels are pushing forward and the front wheels are working against it causing grabbing
Don't get me wrong, I have been to China several times over the last 25 years, they have some very good food, its just the copy stuff that's just not right or as Todd so delicately put it "Dirty" 🤣🤣🤣🤣@@LewisC-t1f 🤣🤣🤣
Howdy Brother,,holy shit! That was the shittiest bridge I've ever seen you cross. I nearly shit my shorts just watching. I think if I was along I'd have taken Mina's hand and walked across that one. That was a bit puckery. The guy planning the bourd was very talented. To be able to plane wood that true and square with a hand held planer is pretty amazing. Those high mtn Hmong people have to be tough if they drink that shit at 8 am. This was a great vid Todd, thanks. Ttyl,,,Marlon tell my niece that I'm adding brave to her description now too😂.
Todd without a translator id say you would be cactus. Interesting to say the least mate, never a dull moment!🐵🐒😀

Another great video, enjoyed it, thank you. Crossing that bridge was definitely a soiling pants situation 🫣
Have a lovely day.

Thanks Jim.. it wasn't Lao beer mate, it was Chinese beer and it was filthy, like sweaty socks and vinegar!
Mate that bridge is...roo.. Ted... another awesome video...
i must also say it was a great vid,drama , humour ,scenary,
keep my attention right through 😊
Thanks Hugh, glad you enjoyed it mate
I love you Neenee. I love you Mina. If the bridge breaks we will all go together. 😯
Cheers.
Like that scary little bridge in VV that's missing planks and moves everywhere, but with your over 2 ton troopy....WILD man. ;)

Wow, really want touch to feeling of weather and the villagers living again. It's almost 30 years not been walking on in such village
Thanks
Watched this after watching the bridge rescue in Kentucky USA. I would have let the other truck go first to build my confidence!
Todd, after the second beer they all taste good.
No way in high heaven was I having a 2nd of that crud!
Mountain super charged caffeine! 😅

Only good Chinese beer is Tsing Tao Todd
Don’t forget mate it’s always 5:00 somewhere
The bridge was fine Todd everything is always fine
Hahaha 👍
I had to laugh when you said Neene is all adventured out at moment 😂
Man, that bridge was sketchy! Best black and whites....E 10 is like a time warp, love the people and the culture. Thanks, Todd and family!
Cheers Donald 👍
💯🔥💙👍
I thonk you should of had the girls walk accross the bridge. Enjoy your videos!
Kinda cool there to i see :-)
Laos and Vietnam and Thailand are such beautiful countries! Especially the countryside!! I hope I can visit someday! )
Wow body! You certainly had to have a double set of pants 👖 on to go over that bridge 😮 real road trip content 🙏🏽✌🏽
interesting little adventure .... you gotta have faith on a swing bridge like that one.
The three of you make a perfect movie video every time( Neenee, Meena and you).
Nerves of steel mate.
Maybe take the drone straight up, have look good above the mist
breaky beer 😂
Priorities are right - go to the town health centre to have a beer - I feel better now.
Hahaha daily dose of medicine 😆
I just wonder.........could you hear me laugh when you finished that beer... good you manned up and drank it though.
Haha next time i see that can, I might not be such a man though.. 😝
loving these videos, NRL started this week in VEGAS did you catch any games/? manly def bunnies; chooks def broncos
Just finished watching the highlights mate.. Nah, knew nothing about it till ya mentioned it. Looked like it was received well 👍

hi guys
what was the problem with 4X4 light
Got it looked at when we returned.. Vacuum switch needed cleaning. All good now 👌
An easy way to tell if it is stuck in 4 wheel drive is at low speed turn the steering full lock left or right and you can feel the front wheels grabbing as the rear wheels are pushing forward and the front wheels are working against it causing grabbing
Good point 👌
Cheap Chinese beer isn’t very good, when I’m in China I only drink Tsingtao Draft beer 🍺
next bridge like that let the girls walk across on foot.
Mate NO time of the day is good for that beer!!! let along 8am 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Why? It’s a low quality beer?
It's a copy of a copy beer....., I think Todd's comment says it perfectly 🤣😂@@LewisC-t1f 🤣
@@nickyssamesame yes, I would never drink or eat anything made in china.
Don't get me wrong, I have been to China several times over the last 25 years, they have some very good food, its just the copy stuff that's just not right or as Todd so delicately put it "Dirty" 🤣🤣🤣🤣@@LewisC-t1f 🤣🤣🤣
Bro , it’s very danger roads. What about if car die what are you going to do..? That’s my question for you.
I’m sure there is cellphone signal or a local can help.
Shoulda let Mina drive, she's the only sober in the village
Howdy Brother,,holy shit! That was the shittiest bridge I've ever seen you cross. I nearly shit my shorts just watching. I think if I was along I'd have taken Mina's hand and walked across that one.

Those high mtn Hmong people have to be tough if they drink that shit at 8 am. This was a great vid Todd, thanks. Ttyl,,,Marlon tell my niece that I'm adding brave to her description now too😂.
I think I saw that bridge on Google maps and its roughly translated as 2 pairs of underwear bridge
Hahaha you nutter! 😝
@@NowinLao Shhh!
Never drink Chinese beer. There is a reason why even the Chinese won't drink it. LOL.
Definitely know why it's cheap!
I won’t ever drink or eat anything made in china! 😂
Polluted water is probably the first ingredient.
I’ve driven over much worse bridges than that in a Jeep
💪
Thanks
Thanks
Thank you Bruce 🙏
