The Q&A vid will be coming out sometime next week (thank you everyone who asked questions about my ride). So be sure to stick around for that to find out what I’m currently up to
This video came up in my recommended and I’m just blown away by the whole adventure you’ve gone on. I wish I could watch the whole trip and maybe I will go back and watch your adventure in order. But I do have a question, how does this trip and the connections you’ve made been affected by Covid? After being on a global trip I can assume that your perspective on the impact of a global pandemic is probably quite different than the perspective I have or someone else who stays home mostly.
@Stuart Carter It is interesting, because I have always given everything I made away, because it's value is something that is to great to slow others from. This and I am self taught, so no license to practice mental health, I just love the topic. But as far as my music, maybe I should shift gears and charge for that...
>Been Around the entire world on a unicycle >Seen arguably some of the roughest terrain the world has to offer > "Im in New York City and the roads are just absolute crap" YEAAAAAAAH THATS USSSSSSSS
Reporter: "Whats next?" Ed: "Don't ask me that, let me enjoy this one." I loved that response. Must have been frustrating for that to be the very first question someone asks you after an accomplishment like this one.
Unicyclist 'Matthew' here and I have to say - I'm glad I joined you the day I did as if it had been the next day I genuinely don't think I'd have been able to drive my 39 week pregnant wife to the hospital! Here we are now with a beautiful 20 month old daughter!
As noted by others, this was recommended to me, and after watching it, I just had to see more, binged the whole series from start to finish. I was completely captivated by it, watching you grow on this journey from a sweet faced boy, into a well rounded young man with experience and wisdom beyond your years was captivating, I laughed with you, cried along with you and was spellbound the entire time. Well done Ed, I cant wait to see what you do next, I will be following along with enthusiasm and will be shouting to anyone who hears about your fantastic adventure(s)!!
TED is a giant cult scam. There's been lots of people who have come out and spoken against it. Apparently they don't treat guests very well, don't pay guests but charge the audience, don't set anything up very well, will let just about anyone speak, etc. He can talk about his experience on youtube where he DOES get paid, and people aren't charged to watch, etc.
@@tfoen7678 they wouldn't be in direct control of money so that's never gonna happen. It's just a presentation with a sideshow anyways. I don't see why it has to have the TED name on it. He could do it for himself and it would look WAY better, and sound just as great.
This man is the real GOAT I mean he did something nobody had ever done, and raised a ton of money for people who really needed, not just for him. He has to be the best youtuber/person ever. Lover Ed

About a week ago this vid was recommended to me and I thought: "OK lets have a look at this crazy guy unicycling around the world..." I just came back to this video after binging the entire series! Also I kinda want to ride my bike and explore a bit now, just need to fix it first :D
Man, watching you mess around the uni with your grandfather brought me to tears, it took me back to spending my summers fixing bicycles with my own grandpa, he now no longer remembers me as his mind has decided to leave him. But he'll live on in every bike I own and fix and every ride I take. Take care Ed, hope to see you round London sometime so we can grab a pic together! All my best mate
@@BasedPaul0 uhm no. He clearly states that he cried because he happy that ed is heading home now. And i simply explained that ed is home for 2 years now and merely releasing the video.
@@davidbarthel5664 unfortunately you are wrong to assume that because he "clearly states" " I was so happy you "WERE" going home finally" past tense. just throwing it out there.....
alleY821 No it's not. He didn't know he finished two years ago and assumed he was coming back to the pandemic. When people use imagine that way they aren't saying implying it didn't happen and to imagine if it did. They are saying imagine in the sense of imagine if you the subject(viewer) of the statement had to go through it as if he did go through that. Like if someone got hit on the back of the head with a bat, and someone said "damn imagine how much that would suck," he's not saying to imagine it like it didn't happen, he's saying imagine if it happened to you.
Just one time TH-cam algorithm could be useful, but no. Keeps this kind of channel in the dark until the final part. Oh well, atleast something to binge-watch
Very inspiring ,your attitude is amazing and you are spreading a lot of good vibes. i saw all your videos, some of them maybe twice. i learned a lot from you, about how to get over obstacles in life , what we are capable of, how to deal with fears, when i was biking around and sleeping alone in my tent i really thought about your countless nights in strange places , and that gave me comfort to sleep well .cheers to that. if i had a bad period in life your videos helped me to stand up . is the first time on youtube when i felt that i really own you something. is not a lot but really thank you.
To have your grandfather working on your bike for an Around-The-World trip - words cannot describe the awesome! Salute to both of you! Not only for the 3 years of pedaling, numerous difficulties you went through and the skills to have the carrying system done, but for the connection you two have!
Being a granddad myself, when your grandmother started to tear up I sympathized with her and shed a few myself. You know they are ever so proud of you as are thousands of other fine folks. I must say I've followed your adventures from the beginning and am sad to see it come to a close, and yet very happy for everything you've done for the School In A Bag. Stay safe in the future young man and many many happy miles.
I just sat here, almost 1.15h, smiling, cheering you on., you seem like such a great and genuine guy and what wonderful friends and family you have around you. Amazing, completly amazing! Also, a massive bulge like that is needed for a accomplishment like this, be proud, people like you change other people for the better!
The time with Grandad in the garage was wholesome to see. And at @47:47 when he says "We'll be alright, we'll be alright." indicates he was with you the entire time, you shared this journey. Sweet!
I got this video recommended 5 days ago... since then I have binged the entire series, and now I'm here again. I just want to say thank you, for providing this incredible content and for cheering me up
Your Grandfather is a top chap, just the sort to engage with grandsons in particular with building and fixing stuff. One day you will look back on this little chat in the garage with some tools and jobs to do with great fondness. I know.
The best TH-cam series I have ever had the privilege to see. It's been truly inspiring. Well done Ed and I hope you can find another adventure to entertain us all on soon. Greetings, from Horsham, England.
That hug to your grandma was so sweet! I love that you had a full circle moment with your grandpa discussing the unicycle he helped build years later. ❤
I started watching his youtube series about a year ago. Its hard not to get tears in your eyes at the end. After everything he went through it was finally over. Toward the end you start to realize he was just and ordinary young man, with an extraordinary heart, personality, dream, and detirmination. All he had to do to start his dream was just start pedaling. It goes to show you that nothing is impossible. Once you get past your mental fears all you have to do is just start moving forward and never give up. Thank you for everything Ed. This was so inspiring. Its a bittersweet ending. Sad because this chapter is over😞 but sweet that you are finally home, and a new chapter begins. I wish you all the best my friend. Thank you for making all these videos. 🙂👍
Your wee gran saying "I'll just have to keep going" absolutely killed me. Know that you going on these adventures has helped them to live another life too. Your granddad looked absolutely chuffed too that he was still contributing to the journey.
TH-cam recommended this to me, and I am spellbound by just how brave and exciting this was of you. When you crossed the finish line I couldn't hold in the emotion and commend what you've done. You've raised money for children in need, inspired countless, and this dude here is going to spend more time outdoors, thanks to one man from a town I've already forgotten the name of. Cheers. You're a true legend.
Wow, it is clearly evident that you put alot of hard work into this final episode and it shows, it truly was amazing to watch. I was glued to the end. I cried when your Grandma was so happy to see you, how beautiful your relationship with them and the pride your grandfather had in his masterpiece as well as your accomplisment was truly moving. Beautiful landscape, warm friends and family and a safe trip overall really made for an epic finish. Loved the music, particularly at the end. So cool to watch you physically mature from a teenage boy to a young man and to see all the life experiences you had that will stay with you, including mtg your girlfriend. Very insane and inspiring all for such a great cause. Thankyou for all your hard work filming and allowing us to come along for the ride. This episode felt like we were right there with you on your last leg. Here is hoping for more subscribers to your channel, truly deserves more! It helped to forget the current world situation for a minute. Wow. Thanks again and a belated Congratulations! Bravo man.👏👏👏👏👏
Man, my tears isn't that shallow but i teared up when you say goodbye to your grandparents. As i grew up with my grandma & grandpa, i can feel the pain of saying goodbye. Thank you for sharing this video and i'm thankful that i found this video.
Cant imagine how much this return home, especially meeting your family have ment to you. So heart warming, especially the time with your grand parents.
this video popped into my reccomended and i have a small feeling that theres a tiny tiny part of my brain that accualy remembers hearing about this when you first started
36" rim, wheel outer diameter +- 38": Thats arround 1m dia * Pi = 3.1415m per revolution. 22000 mile * 1.6= 35200km. That times 1000 = gives 35200000m . Divide that by 3.1415m= thats 11.204.838 turns of the wheel!! per rev 2 steps . Thats 22.409.676 padel!!!! holymoly! RESPECT and Sorry for my bad english!!
So sweet to finally meet your grandparents, especially your grandad being so instrumental in your trip. You can tell you're he is a machinist with his choice of driving a Volvo
It was so sweet to see your mom happy and beaming with pride. ❤❤❤ How beautiful that you pursued your dream surrounded by love and support and accomplished it no matter the hurdles. What an incredible, beautiful, resilient spirit you have. 💖
I've watched you for over a year now and watching the final moments of this video has made me so emotional, im so unbelievably proud of you and I can't even imagine how proud your parents must be of the man you've become. You've inspired me beyond belief to go out and find something that challenges me and makes me believe I can achieve anything. I know this story is over now but I can't wait to see what is next for you
"I am a bit older now, and possibly, hopefully, a little bit wiser". *five minutes later tries to get on a unicycle with a box that is bigger than the unicycle itself.* Well, I guess you didn't make any promises ;)
Just finished your epic adventure, Ed. Thank you for your raw emotion and dedication to yourself and your cause. Absolutely inspiring work here. Many, many tears have been shared. You're amazing! Hope all is well with you and your lovely family these days. Thanks again for sharing P.S. The progression of your production skills is such a pleasure to witness through this time.
You'll probably never seen this, but I wanted to tell you I loved everything about your visiting your grandparents. What a lovely couple in a cute little house, with a tidy Volvo sitting in the garage.
Morixx3 The thing is that you didn't need to say that, everyone knew it was a joke. The fact you had to write it out probably means a small part of you may have thought he was serious. This is why you look silly.
The pure determination, courage, and happiness really got to me I was crying at the end of a 3 year and a half journey. It must feel so good to be back home bro welcome home.
The fact that you have all these shots and all these angles, just goes to show how much hard work you put not only into your journey but your videography and determination to get one heck of a video/documentary. Congrats 👏🏻
he is one of those people my parents yell at me to be. While he's having breakfast with some Nepali family in the Himalayas, I'm in my room watching the office and on my 3rd pint of ice cream.
@@JumpMasterJef Bru....The sheer amount of experience this guy has wrapped up made him a really mature, well spoken, independent, dedicated individual. If these arnt life skills than i dont know what are.
@@JumpMasterJef he has his own merchandise and a pretty big yt channal so he has some income. And traveling all around the world will make anyone much more wise. So it will help him alot in life
Ed, you’ve got me here with tears in my eyes. What a journey it has been. You’ve taught me so much about life and what it means to be fulfilled. Thank you for bringing us along with you. It’s been fun.
Your videos are wonderfully shot and edited, and I believe this series to probably be the best bike touring series on TH-cam - BUT despite this, the best part of the entire trip for me was seeing you and your Grandad inspecting his handiwork 3 years later. It was touching to see your relationship with him and really just a pleasure to listen to the man himself. A true scholar and gentleman, and an engineering mastermind for fabricating that setup. I believe that is now the gold standard of unicycle touring and for years to come people will emulate that design.
When I started watching this series, I did not expect to be sitting in tears of joy for you Ed. You are an absolute legend, and what you achieved that day has inspired thousands of people to do so much good for this world. I’m currently planning a world cycle tour. Without your videos, I would have deemed that challenge more or less impossible. Thank you Ed, and congratulations on one of the biggest achievements a human can accomplish!
It’s crazy how I been watching you all along from the start, I used to open your location tracker in school and keep it track of where you are. Crazy how time flies
This was one of those videos that I usually skip to the end just to see the reaction of everyone, but I watched it in its full, while I’m now up at 3 in the morning, it was worth it, very nice video❤️
I am not sure how you could spend over 3 years on such an amazing adventure and return to a normal humdrum life. I think you Ed are destined to have many more wild rides. Perhaps on a bit less brutal mode of transportation.
You have GREAT Parents who show their support for you and you can tell how much they love you. Great job Ed! You surely did not disappoint them at all!
Congratulations Ed. Must have been quite an experience. I might have only found you at the start of your USA videos but I've enjoyed watching back your entire journey.
This man is crazy is the most polite way... This just shows that we are capable of doing anything if we put our heart and mind into it... He motivated me to chase my dreams with the right mentality... Respect my guy
4 months ago i found this channel. Why i never heard of this young guy travelling around the world on a Uni earlier. i started to watch this series from start and now too finish. If i had of known about this a few years back i could have met up with you in Fremantle/Perth or even Merredin where my mother lives The folks you met in Merredin, Lance and sandie, sadly Lance has fallen ill and has had to move closer to the hospital from what my mother has told me. I did shed a tear watching this last episode when you arrived at your grand parents place and knowing this if the final few pedals till home. You done an awesome job mate, im 53, never accomplished anything in my life, so if i was too wear a hat i would tip it your way, well done man. There is one out come to this tho, im now going to learn how too ride an Uni...thank you Ed.
I just finished my MonoTour across northern Italy on one wheel, watching your series: it was amazing! Thanks for inspiring me and keeping me company! Your editing skills have grown so much! Kudos to you!
Inspirational. Having ridden a 36" uni myself and managing to get half way around the block I know that this was a massive, massive achievement. Such a lovely young man and such a good cause. 99.99% of the world will never achieve anything like you have achieved. Well done. I found this video by accident and will watch the others and hopefully we're not too late to contribute toward your cause.
I have watched every single clip and episode. It has been a fantastic experience to see your journey unfold. For me, the most wonderful part isn’t the sheer physical challenges you overcame, or the ridiculously huge achievement, but it’s the spirit of people you met along the way and ultimately YOUR spirit that enabled you to meet them and complete this trip. Thanks for sharing it all.
The last episode of the series pops in my recommended feed. Regret not watching the series at all. Shedding a tear of joy at the success you brought. If there's any joke that can't be said, is that you didn't skip leg day... For 3.5 years.
this randomly showed up in my recommended feed and saw that it was an hour long and i hesitated but I ended up watching the whole thing and i gotta say this is awesome

Who knew I'd become so emotionally invested in a random bloke's journeys on a unicycle 😂 cracking stuff ✌️
I wasn't particularly interested in a unicycle video but 3 yrs worth of effort deserves a view and a like.
maybe even a subscription ;)
I don't care about the unicycle either. It's the adventure that sucks you in. Specially if you watched the other episode videos from each continent.

You know you’ve made it when you’re on the Wikipedia page for Unicycles. Great job, Ed! It’s an amazing feat and you’re immensely talented!
That hug to your grandma was so sweet! I love that you had a full circle moment with your grandpa discussing the unicycle he helped build years later. ❤
Your grandparents, most lovely human beings I have seen on youtube, they really warmed my heart
Christianssn and they colour matched each other which is pretty cool
I started watching his youtube series about a year ago. Its hard not to get tears in your eyes at the end. After everything he went through it was finally over. Toward the end you start to realize he was just and ordinary young man, with an extraordinary heart, personality, dream, and detirmination. All he had to do to start his dream was just start pedaling. It goes to show you that nothing is impossible. Once you get past your mental fears all you have to do is just start moving forward and never give up. Thank you for everything Ed. This was so inspiring. Its a bittersweet ending. Sad because this chapter is over😞 but sweet that you are finally home, and a new chapter begins. I wish you all the best my friend. Thank you for making all these videos. 🙂👍
Your wee gran saying "I'll just have to keep going" absolutely killed me. Know that you going on these adventures has helped them to live another life too. Your granddad looked absolutely chuffed too that he was still contributing to the journey.
TH-cam recommended this to me, and I am spellbound by just how brave and exciting this was of you. When you crossed the finish line I couldn't hold in the emotion and commend what you've done. You've raised money for children in need, inspired countless, and this dude here is going to spend more time outdoors, thanks to one man from a town I've already forgotten the name of. Cheers. You're a true legend.
Video Idea: Do a “Post Trip Item Latout”. Curious as to what items you decided were unnecessary through the duration of your trip.
he kind of already did th-cam.com/video/AD6JRZzt-vk/w-d-xo.html
In case you missed it, he finished more than one year ago, before all of this mess happened...
Muadib223 What has that got to do with anything?
@@Endeva09 he kept everything
Wow, it is clearly evident that you put alot of hard work into this final episode and it shows, it truly was amazing to watch. I was glued to the end. I cried when your Grandma was so happy to see you, how beautiful your relationship with them and the pride your grandfather had in his masterpiece as well as your accomplisment was truly moving. Beautiful landscape, warm friends and family and a safe trip overall really made for an epic finish. Loved the music, particularly at the end. So cool to watch you physically mature from a teenage boy to a young man and to see all the life experiences you had that will stay with you, including mtg your girlfriend. Very insane and inspiring all for such a great cause. Thankyou for all your hard work filming and allowing us to come along for the ride. This episode felt like we were right there with you on your last leg.
Here is hoping for more subscribers to your channel, truly deserves more!
It helped to forget the current world situation for a minute. Wow. Thanks again and a belated Congratulations! Bravo man.👏👏👏👏👏
Well said!
It’s crazy to think this is the last Elijah LeJander ever
Elijah LeJander
Elijah LeJander the myth the legend
LOOL I had nightmares of that name
@@elijahwashere9896 You appear as some sort of elf creature in my dreams these days Elijah, hope you're doing well my man.
Lol my name is Elijah but i am no LeJander
Man, my tears isn't that shallow but i teared up when you say goodbye to your grandparents. As i grew up with my grandma & grandpa, i can feel the pain of saying goodbye. Thank you for sharing this video and i'm thankful that i found this video.
Cant imagine how much this return home, especially meeting your family have ment to you. So heart warming, especially the time with your grand parents.
this video popped into my reccomended and i have a small feeling that theres a tiny tiny part of my brain that accualy remembers hearing about this when you first started

I barely scratched the surface on the videos i watched about his unicycling the world AND I STILL FEEL EMPTY

36" rim, wheel outer diameter +- 38": Thats arround 1m dia * Pi = 3.1415m per revolution.
22000 mile * 1.6= 35200km. That times 1000 = gives 35200000m . Divide that by 3.1415m= thats 11.204.838 turns of the wheel!! per rev 2 steps . Thats 22.409.676 padel!!!!
holymoly! RESPECT and Sorry for my bad english!!

Math is a universal language
That was emotional and beautiful. I watched the whole trip coming to an end. Can't wait for the next adventure.
So sweet to finally meet your grandparents, especially your grandad being so instrumental in your trip. You can tell you're he is a machinist with his choice of driving a Volvo
It was so sweet to see your mom happy and beaming with pride. ❤❤❤ How beautiful that you pursued your dream surrounded by love and support and accomplished it no matter the hurdles. What an incredible, beautiful, resilient spirit you have. 💖
damn never seen this series before and this gave me the feels.
Seriously!!! I barely found this series and just watching this brought me to tears. Brilliant man!
I've watched you for over a year now and watching the final moments of this video has made me so emotional, im so unbelievably proud of you and I can't even imagine how proud your parents must be of the man you've become.
You've inspired me beyond belief to go out and find something that challenges me and makes me believe I can achieve anything.
I know this story is over now but I can't wait to see what is next for you
"I am a bit older now, and possibly, hopefully, a little bit wiser". *five minutes later tries to get on a unicycle with a box that is bigger than the unicycle itself.* Well, I guess you didn't make any promises ;)
Just finished your epic adventure, Ed. Thank you for your raw emotion and dedication to yourself and your cause. Absolutely inspiring work here. Many, many tears have been shared. You're amazing! Hope all is well with you and your lovely family these days. Thanks again for sharing
P.S. The progression of your production skills is such a pleasure to witness through this time.
You'll probably never seen this, but I wanted to tell you I loved everything about your visiting your grandparents. What a lovely couple in a cute little house, with a tidy Volvo sitting in the garage.
The footage with your grandad is heartwarming , think you’ll look back at it in years to come and cherish it
Man... Think of how much it must cost for him to leave his GoPro's all over the country to get the shots
Morixx3 WHAT NO WAY REALLY? I THOUGHT I JUST KEPT A BAG FULL OF $400 DOLLAR CAMERAS

Morixx3 The thing is that you didn't need to say that, everyone knew it was a joke. The fact you had to write it out probably means a small part of you may have thought he was serious. This is why you look silly.
The stop by the grandparents was great. My Grandparents are long gone and I miss those days. Lucky guy.
The pure determination, courage, and happiness really got to me I was crying at the end of a 3 year and a half journey. It must feel so good to be back home bro welcome home.
Vous mériter la médaille d'or pour le courage et l'aventure bravo vous êtes un héros
The fact that you have all these shots and all these angles, just goes to show how much hard work you put not only into your journey but your videography and determination to get one heck of a video/documentary. Congrats 👏🏻
he is one of those people my parents yell at me to be. While he's having breakfast with some Nepali family in the Himalayas, I'm in my room watching the office and on my 3rd pint of ice cream.
What this guy has done is nothing short of amazing.
@@JumpMasterJef it will help him in many facets of life, many.
@@JumpMasterJef Bru....The sheer amount of experience this guy has wrapped up made him a really mature, well spoken, independent, dedicated individual. If these arnt life skills than i dont know what are.
@@JumpMasterJef he has his own merchandise and a pretty big yt channal so he has some income. And traveling all around the world will make anyone much more wise. So it will help him alot in life
@@JumpMasterJef wrong... how can you watch this and think that he is achieving nothing...
Ed, you’ve got me here with tears in my eyes. What a journey it has been. You’ve taught me so much about life and what it means to be fulfilled. Thank you for bringing us along with you. It’s been fun.
Your videos are wonderfully shot and edited, and I believe this series to probably be the best bike touring series on TH-cam - BUT despite this, the best part of the entire trip for me was seeing you and your Grandad inspecting his handiwork 3 years later. It was touching to see your relationship with him and really just a pleasure to listen to the man himself. A true scholar and gentleman, and an engineering mastermind for fabricating that setup. I believe that is now the gold standard of unicycle touring and for years to come people will emulate that design.
When I started watching this series, I did not expect to be sitting in tears of joy for you Ed. You are an absolute legend, and what you achieved that day has inspired thousands of people to do so much good for this world. I’m currently planning a world cycle tour. Without your videos, I would have deemed that challenge more or less impossible. Thank you Ed, and congratulations on one of the biggest achievements a human can accomplish!
It’s crazy how I been watching you all along from the start, I used to open your location tracker in school and keep it track of where you are. Crazy how time flies
This was one of those videos that I usually skip to the end just to see the reaction of everyone, but I watched it in its full, while I’m now up at 3 in the morning, it was worth it, very nice video❤️
Clicked on this by mistake... ended up watching the whole ilm i one sitting!!! Amazing... love it such an inspiration , WELL DONE ED!!! a true hero
I am not sure how you could spend over 3 years on such an amazing adventure and return to a normal humdrum life. I think you Ed are destined to have many more wild rides. Perhaps on a bit less brutal mode of transportation.
You have GREAT Parents who show their support for you and you can tell how much they love you. Great job Ed! You surely did not disappoint them at all!
No, I'm not crying, you're crying!
One time a man looked at a Unicycle and thought to himself, "I wonder if I can cross the world with that."
3 years later, he did.
Nah
I read this in a Morgan Freeman voice.
Congratulations Ed. Must have been quite an experience. I might have only found you at the start of your USA videos but I've enjoyed watching back your entire journey.
I've binge watched your entire channel this week. Truly amazing content.
Me too, it's quite sad to reach the end (even though it ended 2 years ago)
@@120Livi I was so sad to finish it too! Lol. Such an inspiring young man
This man is crazy is the most polite way... This just shows that we are capable of doing anything if we put our heart and mind into it... He motivated me to chase my dreams with the right mentality... Respect my guy
Great stuff, glad you got home before quarantine. That would've been a pickle.
Put this man on the Joe rogan experience. I think it would be a great podcast
Looking forward to see it! :)) The end of an incredible journey, congrats!
4 months ago i found this channel.
Why i never heard of this young guy travelling around the world on a Uni earlier.
i started to watch this series from start and now too finish.
If i had of known about this a few years back i could have met up with you in Fremantle/Perth or even Merredin where my mother lives
The folks you met in Merredin, Lance and sandie, sadly Lance has fallen ill and has had to move closer to the hospital from what my mother has told me.
I did shed a tear watching this last episode when you arrived at your grand parents place and knowing this if the final few pedals till home.
You done an awesome job mate, im 53, never accomplished anything in my life, so if i was too wear a hat i would tip it your way, well done man.
There is one out come to this tho, im now going to learn how too ride an Uni...thank you Ed.
I just finished my MonoTour across northern Italy on one wheel, watching your series: it was amazing! Thanks for inspiring me and keeping me company! Your editing skills have grown so much! Kudos to you!
The New York traffic feels like the final boss you’ve been training 3 years for
Great final video Ed. It was amazing to meet you and ride with you for the day. You've done school in a bag very proud 👍🏻
Ed, this is SO good! A true documentary quality production on par with things I've seen on Netflix. A great story too. Wonderful
Inspirational. Having ridden a 36" uni myself and managing to get half way around the block I know that this was a massive, massive achievement. Such a lovely young man and such a good cause. 99.99% of the world will never achieve anything like you have achieved. Well done. I found this video by accident and will watch the others and hopefully we're not too late to contribute toward your cause.
I have watched every single clip and episode. It has been a fantastic experience to see your journey unfold. For me, the most wonderful part isn’t the sheer physical challenges you overcame, or the ridiculously huge achievement, but it’s the spirit of people you met along the way and ultimately YOUR spirit that enabled you to meet them and complete this trip. Thanks for sharing it all.

The last episode of the series pops in my recommended feed. Regret not watching the series at all.
Shedding a tear of joy at the success you brought. If there's any joke that can't be said, is that you didn't skip leg day... For 3.5 years.
this randomly showed up in my recommended feed and saw that it was an hour long and i hesitated but I ended up watching the whole thing and i gotta say this is awesome
50:05
I was really smiling, and happy when i hear your grandfather)))) A true expert )))
Greetings from Germany! :-)
Really quite bittersweet getting to the end of the round the world playlist. Absolutely loved it and wow, what a series.
