It’s great to have these when we have nothing but free time! I hope you are able to travel and make more soon. I also hope that you and your family and friends are all well.
I really enjoy the high speed time lapse. This is the first of your videos I’ve watched. I’ll watch some others but I enjoy covering the entire distance at this speed.
Thank you! This was an experiment. I never liked hyper-lapse videos, but I realized that I enjoy it with information added. I plan to do my east coast road trip this way soon, too. It works better for trips that are mostly on freeways.
This is the 2nd Unclecoolie video where the Kansas sky has just blown me away. It’s just like the Toy Story wallpaper. Something about the flatness of the land, and the cloudy sky stretching all the way to the horizon is just mesmerising. Loving the videos all the way from Australia :)

Average speed of 100kph (60mph), sped up 32x makes it 3,200kph (2,000mph). That makes it Mach 2.6 which is even faster than the fastest fighter jet in the world, the Mig-31 Foxhound which flies at 1,900mph (Mach 2.47). Lucky you didn't run into any crosswinds :P
That gas station in Alleghany County, Va you stopped at.. I used to stop there each and every day when I was going to college in Clifton Forge. I'd fill up before heading back over to Lexington lol. It's like a 26 mile patch of road between Lexington and there with no other places for gas.
I have to say I loved all the real time vids, but it was nice to speed it up through the Midwest lol. Idk how you didn't die going through Indiana and Illinois, such boring states, at least Kansas had views lol. The west is the best reward though. I'm from the east coast but there is nothing like the vast and amazing scenery of the western us. I mean don't get me wrong the east had it's beauty too but it just doesn't compare to the west. Anyway love the vids man and stay save with your travels!!!
Thanks. I just posted the real time version of my southwest road trip over the past month. The real time version of this trip is uploaded in four parts.
Thanks! I had several requests for a hyper-lapse video for a long time, but it was only recently that I realized that a video like this is actually watchable when the information is there (so many hyper-lapse videos don't have even the basic information, and I couldn't watch them because of it).
You should drive from Vancouver to Quebec City and from Calgary to Yellowknife! That would we a really cool drive. Also the trans Labrador highway is a nice barren drive
Watching the 11 hour one whole and seeing a 90 minute one, in my mind, I kinda regret watching the whole 11 hours, but I still enjoyed this video either way.
I know, I watched the 4x speed one and right at the end it recommended this one, Doh! I could have saved myself an awful lot of time! But seriously the 11hr one is a great watch too.
@@unclecoolie Thank you for your response.....road trip videos here in my channel but it is in the Philippines......I like your video....it takes many hours to watch😃😊
You have to just love driving I assume. I’m sure you’ve bonded with a ton of music due to the memories it creates on the road. I hope that makes sense:)
I love doing drives like this, mainly because I don't get the chance to do them often. I listened to a lot of music, such as AC/DC, Metallica, Anthrax Killswitch Engage, Ozzy, etc.
Kansas and Colorado are so flat, but at the same time, it's just a hill that you're slowly climbing when traveling to the west until you get to the mountains in Colorado. Then it's a slide when you're traveling east.
ive been really fascinated with how boring and flat the ones in the midwest are, if you look on google maps it's just squares in a grid, very interesting and I don't have memory of them despite going through them when I was a toddler
Here's an idea: Seattle to Miami (Northwest to Southeast Road Trip) This is a 3,297 mile route that would take 48 hours of non-stop driving. Assuming you drive at 8 hours a day, it would be more like a 6 day trip instead. Here's the trip in a brief summary: As previously mentioned, you start out in Seattle and start driving East. You have to drive across almost all of Washington, before briefly passing through Idaho. Next, you're going to have to pass through all of Montana. You'll just barely pass through a part of Wyoming, and pass all of South Dakota. You'll briefly be in Nebraska, and then Iowa. Afterwards, you'll be in Missouri, narrowly avoiding Kansas. Then, you have to travel through all of Missouri, pop up in Illinois for a while, and pass through Kentucky. You then have to travel through Tennessee, and into Georgia. At this point, you will very narrowly avoid Alabama. After leaving Georgia, you'll finally be in Florida and travel practically all of the state until you hit Miami. Here are a few cities you will drive through/pass. Washington: Seattle, Spokane Idaho: Post Falls Montana: Missoula, Billings Wyoming: Colony South Dakota: Rapid City, Sioux Falls Iowa: Sioux City Nebraska: Omaha Missouri: Kansas City, St. Louis Illinois: Mt. Vernon Kentucky: Paducah Tennessee: Nashville, Chattanooga Georgia: Atlanta Florida: Gainesville, Orlando, Miami Using average summer temperatures by state, the highest temperature would likely be in Florida. The lowest temperature would probably be in Wyoming. This is seen from these average summer temperatures of the following states in Fahrenheit: Washington: 63.8 degrees Idaho: 63.7 degrees Montana: 64.2 degrees Wyoming: 63.5 degrees South Dakota: 69.9 degrees Iowa: 71.6 degrees Nebraska: 71.8 degrees Missouri: 75.4 degrees Illinois: 73.4 degrees Kentucky: 74.5 degrees Tennessee: 75.6 degrees Georgia: 78.7 degrees Florida: 81.0 degrees The highest elevation would probably be in Wyoming, with the lowest elevation possibly being in Florida, seen by average elevation by state (in feet and meters.) Washington: 1,700 feet (520 meters) Idaho: 5,000 feet (1,520 meters) Montana: 3,400 feet (1,040 meters) Wyoming: 6,700 feet (2,040 meters) South Dakota: 2,200 feet (670 meters) Iowa: 1,100 feet (340 meters) Nebraska: 2,600 feet (790 meters) Missouri: 800 feet (240 meters) Illinois: 600 feet (180 meters) Kentucky: 750 feet (230 meters) Tennessee: 900 feet (270 meters) Georgia: 600 feet (180 meters) Florida: 100 feet (30 meters) That's it for the overview of the Northwest to Southeast Road Trip. Sources: Summary of trip, time driving, distance traveled, and cities passed: Google Maps Average temperature by state: CurrentResults.com Average elevation by state: Wikipedia
I want to continue my west coast trip that was originally planned to go to Alaska instead of just Vancouver, and when I do that, I will definitely take Seward Highway into Anchorage and Route 3 up to Fairbanks. I've even considered driving up to Prudhoe Bay.
I use the Garmin Virb Ultra 30, which records GPS information. The Virb software puts the GPS information on the video, including the route line with the red dot. All of the rest of the graphics are made and edited using Final Cut Pro, which is what I use to edit the video with.
It's interesting how the time zones were formed, such as the fact that several of the western most counties in KS went Mountain time, but the rest of the state stayed Central.
Would you ever consider driving from Seattle to Montauk, NY? According to Google Maps, the drive would take about 45 hours at the most and nearly 3000 miles from one to the other. You'd probably pass through a large variety of scenery and the entirety of Long Island, while also passing through cities such as Minneapolis and Chicago. I'm saying this because I'm from Long Island and it would be very interesting to see.
I just did a cross country road trip from Seattle in January, so I don't see myself doing another one from there anytime soon. But I do plan to do a road trip up to New York this spring.
The Kansas City that most people know is in Missouri, and it's right on the border with Kansas, with a Kansas City in Kansas just across from Kansas City, Missouri.
Yes, I have this whole trip uploaded in real speed over four videos (44 hours total). Here are the links: Day 1: th-cam.com/video/eD8dJDo86Jw/w-d-xo.html Day 2: th-cam.com/video/bo9R9ourxjg/w-d-xo.html Day 3: th-cam.com/video/3pi9dy6VGqk/w-d-xo.html Day 4: th-cam.com/video/pqFnZxDLxHc/w-d-xo.html
I've always wondered why you use the metric system for distance and elevation since I assume that because most of your trips take place in the US you're American. Not that I mind it though, I'm from Europe and used to it.
I am American, but I know that about 65% of my viewers are from outside the U.S. I use English units for my real time videos, because a higher percentage of views come from the U.S.
One day I plan to. I'm hoping within a few months I can resume road trips again. I had a nice road trip planned before this godawful pandemic happened.
@@unclecoolie Any number of highways to travel the full length of. One I always wanted to take involved traveling the entire length of the T.C.H. (Trans-Canada Highway) from Victoria, BC, to St. John's, NL. Too freakin' old for it now (60), so I leave it in more capable hands, like you. Keep up the stellar work!
@@MarkL0360 Nahh, you're never too old, unless you're in really weak physical condition. The TCH is a highway that I would like to take. Some U.S. highways are also ones I'd like to do the entirety of, such as US-50, US-6, or US-1.
@@unclecoolie I'd start the US 6 trip at its original western end (Long Beach) and trace its old path (CA 14 and US 395 up to Bishop, where it begins today).
@@MarkL0360 US-6 or US-50 are two highways that I would like to do a complete road trip of from end-to-end one day. US-50 is the leading candidate since I live just a few miles from it in VA.
I spent about $1,800 total on this trip, which includes, the rental car (picked up from Dulles Airport and dropped off at Sea-Tac Airport at the end), gas, food, lodging for four nights, the flight back to DC at the end, and miscellaneous items.
That would be kind of cool. I want to do another cross-country trip at some point. I have planned such a trip this summer, but prices rising as they are, I'm not sure that I can do it. I will be in Las Vegas for work in September, and I plan to do another road trip in and around Vegas at least. I've even thought about doing a complete US highway road trip, like US-50 from Ocean City, MD to Sacramento, CA; or US-6 from Provincetown, MA to Bishop, CA.
It feels like I'm on a roller coaster that's going 100,000 miles per hour oh and Delawere is my first favorite state utah is my second favorite state And Idaho is my third favorite state

Thanks! I hope so, too.
I really enjoy the high speed time lapse. This is the first of your videos I’ve watched. I’ll watch some others but I enjoy covering the entire distance at this speed.
Thank you! This is the first time I sped the video up at 32x. Most of the time, I use 4x or real-time. My videos from 2017 and early 2018 are at 7.5x.
this is a perfect video with all the data! i love monitoring speed, elevation, and distance travelled
Thank you!
i sped this up too on playback speed 2x
And real time version
ikr like its only been like 2 minutes and im in west virginia WTH
It was fantastic job you did not only recording the trip but editing and adding all the onscreen details. Perfect!
Thank you! This was an experiment. I never liked hyper-lapse videos, but I realized that I enjoy it with information added. I plan to do my east coast road trip this way soon, too. It works better for trips that are mostly on freeways.
@@unclecoolie looking forward to checking it out.
I loved the concept and the music selection of yours. I'm looking to see you doing a timelapse like this for your other ''coast to coast'' videos.
Thanks! I will be doing a similar type of video of my NY-CA trip by the end of this month.
@@unclecoolie it will be nice to watch it before I happen to step for the very first time US soil next month.
Good luck with the editing, as usual.
@@rafael.vitoria Thanks!
This is the 2nd Unclecoolie video where the Kansas sky has just blown me away. It’s just like the Toy Story wallpaper. Something about the flatness of the land, and the cloudy sky stretching all the way to the horizon is just mesmerising. Loving the videos all the way from Australia :)
Thank you! I actually enjoyed driving across Kansas. I think it was partly due to waiting to see the Rockies eventually.

Damn....what a video. I watched it from start to finish...and i can count the number of times i blinked.
When you blink, you’ll probably go about 300 feet without looking, or 600 feet, if you watched at 2x speed.

Western KS and eastern CO was oddly beautiful with all the clouds.

I was graduating from Auburn while you were driving through Colorado on May 5th. Interesting!
Cool. 👍👍
who also saw a road they've been on
Not me, I’ve never been above about 1/3 up in TN
I've been on the first 2 min of roads and that's it
Nun
The bit of I-81 south in Virginia I’ve been on many times
You should drive from Vancouver to Quebec City and from Calgary to Yellowknife! That would we a really cool drive. Also the trans Labrador highway is a nice barren drive
I would love to one day!

where did u get your recording equipment from? Clearly not in the US. we don't do the metric system here
I got most of it from Amazon. The units can be displayed in both English and metric with the Virb software.
You should make a video like this, but of your trip from La to new york, and in 30 minutes :)
Holy shit bro I’d pass out lol
Hey you drove through Heber City UT. I've been there many times.
I remember that city well. That's close to the western end of US-40.

Sunrise and clean mountain air.

Kansas and Colorado are so flat, but at the same time, it's just a hill that you're slowly climbing when traveling to the west until you get to the mountains in Colorado. Then it's a slide when you're traveling east.
That was one of my favorite experiences was driving across the Great Plains: the topography just got flatter and more open as the elevations went up.
American Highways are boring but the passion for capturing road videos must be saluted!
That's why more and more lately I've been trying to avoid excessive interstate highway use in my road trips.
@@unclecoolie you can try more jungle/dessert roads etc. ! & rainy day would be much appreciated too!
@@FrostBite_0015 In that case, you'd probably like my drive across Newfoundland that I did in 2018. Lots of trees, and some rain as well.

At this point, you will very narrowly avoid Alabama. After leaving Georgia, you'll finally be in Florida and travel practically all of the state until you hit Miami.
Here are a few cities you will drive through/pass.
Washington: Seattle, Spokane
Idaho: Post Falls
Montana: Missoula, Billings
Wyoming: Colony
South Dakota: Rapid City, Sioux Falls
Iowa: Sioux City
Nebraska: Omaha
Missouri: Kansas City, St. Louis
Illinois: Mt. Vernon
Kentucky: Paducah
Tennessee: Nashville, Chattanooga
Georgia: Atlanta
Florida: Gainesville, Orlando, Miami
Using average summer temperatures by state, the highest temperature would likely be in Florida. The lowest temperature would probably be in Wyoming. This is seen from these average summer temperatures of the following states in Fahrenheit:
Washington: 63.8 degrees
Idaho: 63.7 degrees
Montana: 64.2 degrees
Wyoming: 63.5 degrees
South Dakota: 69.9 degrees
Iowa: 71.6 degrees
Nebraska: 71.8 degrees
Missouri: 75.4 degrees
Illinois: 73.4 degrees
Kentucky: 74.5 degrees
Tennessee: 75.6 degrees
Georgia: 78.7 degrees
Florida: 81.0 degrees
The highest elevation would probably be in Wyoming, with the lowest elevation possibly being in Florida, seen by average elevation by state (in feet and meters.)
Washington: 1,700 feet (520 meters)
Idaho: 5,000 feet (1,520 meters)
Montana: 3,400 feet (1,040 meters)
Wyoming: 6,700 feet (2,040 meters)
South Dakota: 2,200 feet (670 meters)
Iowa: 1,100 feet (340 meters)
Nebraska: 2,600 feet (790 meters)
Missouri: 800 feet (240 meters)
Illinois: 600 feet (180 meters)
Kentucky: 750 feet (230 meters)
Tennessee: 900 feet (270 meters)
Georgia: 600 feet (180 meters)
Florida: 100 feet (30 meters)
That's it for the overview of the Northwest to Southeast Road Trip.

That would be great to do.
@@unclecoolie Thanks for the heart!
I would really like to see someday a trip from Anchorage to Fairbanks. Please.
I want to continue my west coast trip that was originally planned to go to Alaska instead of just Vancouver, and when I do that, I will definitely take Seward Highway into Anchorage and Route 3 up to Fairbanks. I've even considered driving up to Prudhoe Bay.
@@unclecoolie Wow, can't wait to see it, thanks.

I’m interested about your videos. How to make the map on top? And make the read point moving with you?
I use the Garmin Virb Ultra 30, which records GPS information. The Virb software puts the GPS information on the video, including the route line with the red dot. All of the rest of the graphics are made and edited using Final Cut Pro, which is what I use to edit the video with.

The part you enter mountain time zone was actually interesting
It's interesting how the time zones were formed, such as the fact that several of the western most counties in KS went Mountain time, but the rest of the state stayed Central.
Would you ever consider driving from Seattle to Montauk, NY? According to Google Maps, the drive would take about 45 hours at the most and nearly 3000 miles from one to the other. You'd probably pass through a large variety of scenery and the entirety of Long Island, while also passing through cities such as Minneapolis and Chicago. I'm saying this because I'm from Long Island and it would be very interesting to see.
I just did a cross country road trip from Seattle in January, so I don't see myself doing another one from there anytime soon. But I do plan to do a road trip up to New York this spring.
In my recent road trip from Seattle, I passed through (or close to) Minneapolis and Chicago.
Min 31:37, Kansas City is not Missouri State? I remember like Kansas City, MO.
There is a "Kansas City" actually in Kansas.
The Kansas City that most people know is in Missouri, and it's right on the border with Kansas, with a Kansas City in Kansas just across from Kansas City, Missouri.
@@unclecoolie Ah nice, thank you for answer.
Hello, any possibility of uploading the video in real speed. I really enjoy traveling with you. Thank you
Yes, I have this whole trip uploaded in real speed over four videos (44 hours total). Here are the links:
Day 1: th-cam.com/video/eD8dJDo86Jw/w-d-xo.html
Day 2: th-cam.com/video/bo9R9ourxjg/w-d-xo.html

Day 4: th-cam.com/video/pqFnZxDLxHc/w-d-xo.html
@@unclecoolie Thank you very much, in the next 4 days I will travel from coast to coast
Fun fact: If you watch this at 2X speed, and assuming he is going 70 mph in real time, he is traveling 4340 mph
😊
I love it how you didn't just put your existing video to 8x speed because the town names would appear then disappear quickly
Thank you. Yeah, I used the raw video and sped that up and only added town names as the subtitles.
Fantastic! 😊
Thanks! 😊
Of course. Your content never disappoints!
This is something else amazing your very talented
Thank you!
Your welcome
Awesome vid, wish it was me driving. Different speed limits in the US then, I presume?
Yes, in general, the speed limits are higher in the western states (except the west coast states) than they are in the eastern states.
I've always wondered why you use the metric system for distance and elevation since I assume that because most of your trips take place in the US you're American. Not that I mind it though, I'm from Europe and used to it.
I am American, but I know that about 65% of my viewers are from outside the U.S. I use English units for my real time videos, because a higher percentage of views come from the U.S.
this is the future of driving it takes 1 hour to drive across the country
I can't believe i actually thought this was gonna be 1 second long?
Also can you drive across the entire state of texas? Thank you
I like how u say it likes it normal 🤣🤣
One day I plan to. I'm hoping within a few months I can resume road trips again. I had a nice road trip planned before this godawful pandemic happened.
It'd be great if you took a coast-to-coast trip, from Seattle to Boston, on I-90.
I want to do a similar trip once it's safe to do so again.
@@unclecoolie Any number of highways to travel the full length of. One I always wanted to take involved traveling the entire length of the T.C.H. (Trans-Canada Highway) from Victoria, BC, to St. John's, NL. Too freakin' old for it now (60), so I leave it in more capable hands, like you. Keep up the stellar work!
@@MarkL0360 Nahh, you're never too old, unless you're in really weak physical condition. The TCH is a highway that I would like to take. Some U.S. highways are also ones I'd like to do the entirety of, such as US-50, US-6, or US-1.
@@unclecoolie I'd start the US 6 trip at its original western end (Long Beach) and trace its old path (CA 14 and US 395 up to Bishop, where it begins today).
@@MarkL0360 US-6 or US-50 are two highways that I would like to do a complete road trip of from end-to-end one day. US-50 is the leading candidate since I live just a few miles from it in VA.
I love to watch hyperlapse ride! 120 km/h * 32x -> 3840 km/h (2370 mph)! Enjoy supersonic ride!
Thanks! I will likely do a couple of more of these eventually.
@John-Paul Hunt This video would only be 10 minutes long!
How the quality of roads varies depending on the state. 42:05
Very true. I thought that the roads in Kansas were excellent, but the roads in Colorado were mediocre.
This is how many people watched the entire time when he was in the mountains:
It feels like I'm on a roller coaster that's going 100,000 miles per hour
Typically what would you say the costs are for this trip? I’m hoping to do a drive from a Indianapolis to Las Vegas and back.
I spent about $1,800 total on this trip, which includes, the rental car (picked up from Dulles Airport and dropped off at Sea-Tac Airport at the end), gas, food, lodging for four nights, the flight back to DC at the end, and miscellaneous items.
What is the name of the music at 1:25
The song is called Compressor Works Twang, but I don't know who the artist was. This was provided by YT's audio library.
You should do one where it's Portland, OR to Portland, ME, Idk, it just sounds nice, or the opposite
That would be kind of cool. I want to do another cross-country trip at some point. I have planned such a trip this summer, but prices rising as they are, I'm not sure that I can do it. I will be in Las Vegas for work in September, and I plan to do another road trip in and around Vegas at least. I've even thought about doing a complete US highway road trip, like US-50 from Ocean City, MD to Sacramento, CA; or US-6 from Provincetown, MA to Bishop, CA.
@@unclecoolie That sounds epic
Question, where do you reside?
Fairfax County, Virginia.
@@unclecoolie So you live by D.C basically?
It feels like I'm on a roller coaster that's going 100,000 miles per hour oh and Delawere is my first favorite state utah is my second favorite state And Idaho is my third favorite state
Try going to the plains of Kansas and playing Madonna's 'Ray of Light'. It's a fantastic effect!
I'll try that.
Uncle coolie can you upload the illinois indiana section ?
It's part of this video already.
Great video! 👍, 📹🚘🌻🌻
Thank you 👍
If you don't like moronic music, skip to 9:15
Will you ever do one outside of North America? Also how do you fund your rides I mean gas is expensive.
I did a brief road trip in Germany and a train ride in Kenya, both of which I have uploaded, but so far that's it. I want to do more one day.
What’s the music at 39:00?
The song is called Little Cookie II, but I don't know the artist's name.
@Mama dog Someone posted a comment showing all of the names of the songs about 2 weeks ago.
Wow, awesome!
Thanks!
In Germany, we drive like 180 to 190 kmh on highways
I slept thru the flatlands of Kansas and Colorado.......;)
Can I upload Des Moines, Iowa
This probably has been asked too many times already, but what camera do you use to record these trips?
The Garmin Virb Ultra 30.
Amazing
Thanks!
Has anyone noticed meteorites slide across the sky at 42:55. And 43:44
Those airplanes actually look like meteorites, didn't they?
Its a great trip!
thanks my frind.
Thank you!
Nobody:
GOTTA GO FAST! GOTTA GO FAST! GOTTA GO FASTER FASTER FASTER FASTER FASTER!
Do you have the names of the songs used in the video?
I do, but I don't have the artists' names.
Update (2021-05-06) - I figured out all the names of the songs and artists.
@@thegwynster Great!
