This makes me want to set out on an adventure. I love adventures that leave you vulnerable and take weeks/months. He is right, it builds character. And memories. 💪 Keep going my dudes!
@@Shinzon23 Yeah, I'm definitely not going to China any time soon. It's locking down and becoming a dystopian surveillance state, but that's what makes this even more admirable. Because the Chinese people are held back so much, so for them to be able to go the extra mile for freedom is beautiful.
I’ve always wanted to do this but growing up half-Chinese and visiting the wall, then knowing your dad did the same epic journey by himself would be even more encouraging. Good luck boys!❤
? So... not all parts of the great wall are connected, it's more of a network than a single wall, which makes sense given that this thing was built over many centuries, so sometimes stretches of wall were now in enemy territory and they needed to build a new stretch closer to home. A lot of parts are so dilapidated that you can't walk on it let alone run. Heck some parts you can't even climb on because at this point they're basically just heaps of loose rocks that will fall off if you try to climb it, and some parts are just entirely gone and then you're standing there with no way to get down to the ground and back up on the next wall part that you can see 50 meters away (been there done that). A lot of this sh!t was built on the tops of mountains. You don't want to be falling. And you aren't allowed on those extremely dilapidated parts, even the ones right next to tourist spots, though of course it's not that hard to just go anyways, I did too. But I wouldn't be showing evidence of me doing that on international news lol. So I'm confused about the logistics here. You didn't show a route, which, given that it's not a singular stretch of wall, means that there's no way to know which parts they're running. How do these guys sleep, eat, use the bathroom? With the size of those backpacks, no way there's more than a day worth of food and water in there, let alone a tent and spare clothes. Or do they just pick wall bits to run and then drive there every day? Dunno man this whole thing feels kinda sensationalized and misleading. It doesn't add up.
Exactly, at least someone realises this is all hyped up. They have two vehicles offering support to them 24 hours a day, cooking for them for example. With the help of Google Earth and a GPS receiver, it is possible to map out and follow a route. However, Google Earth is blocked in China and there are also some other mapping software you can use which is not as good as Google Earth. You are correct to state that there is a network of Walls, I assume they are "running" along the Ming Wall. However, even with the Ming Wall, there are many different lines forked as well. There are many people in China who have walked along the whole Great Wall, not necessarily following the actual Wall because some parts are just too dangerous, inaccessible and now in Beijing, some parts are forbidden to go to. They would plan to sleep at a pre-determined please, some kind of town , maybe every 30-40km given that is how much they " run" everyday. This would mean there would be some back-tracking, some Wall sections are in military zones too so that needs to be avoided, some sections reaches rivers, for example the Yellow River with High cliffs. In Shaanxi, full of gullies and ravines- impossible to run there. As for the end point, is it Shanhaiguan or Dandong? No information at all. Some sections have completely be destroyed and disappeared, then would they run along that section. With regards to your question if they choose bits and drive there, there is plausibility, they need rest days too. His father's "feat" is even more ridiculous and hard to believe. They are very commercially-minded and good at PR and advertising. No doubt more books to come from them. And Lindesay, Kovalev A. Erdenebaatar D were the first to discover the Xi Xia Great Wall several years earlier than you.

@@halfpint90 That is one of the vaguest sentences I've ever heard. Which media? Which change in attitude? How is this connected to two guys running on a wall? Is this going to be some sort of conspiracy theory?
@@ryn2844 which media? How about the media platform you're reading the article on? And its painting china in a very different light to the way it was painted before the protests.

This should inspire someone to run through another Chinese man-made ancient project, the Great Canal, which also expands thousands of kilometers through more than 2,000 years.
EPIC!! would love to know how they replenish their supplies !! running a single marathon is very tough.... i can only salute them if they run one a day on such harsh terrain !! AMAZING!!!
Could you report the strikes, anti-war protests, people dying needlessly of cold in poverty, corrupt government and rampant immigration - by any chance?
@Morty📎 they eat anything, and I mean it, that has the back facing the sun. Snakes, rats, maggots, monkeys, pangolins, bats, cockroaches, scorpions, you name it. Perhaps because they've learned to eat such a thing in ancient difficult times. There's no more excuses nowadays but they keep eating those poor animals.
@@aeliusromanus9338 not ancient times they had a great famine from 1958-62 that killed 55 million people, still plenty of people alive that have lived through that. And what’s wrong with eating those animals? The only problem I have is the conditions the animals are kept in and the poor food hygiene standards that cause disease, us westerners eat lamb and fois gras happily and then judge others for eating insects… unless you’re vegan then you can criticise how you like I suppose haha
The Great Wall is not a popular destinstion but also a historic landmark that has thousands years of history and lengendary of people. The wall, a place where Chinese emperors defended enermies, reminded us how ancient Chinese people defend themselves from anyone attacks.
Pity that the CCP have oppressed Chinese and this is a real glimpse in the historical China which doesn't get much attention anymore. It's all about political and military power these days with the CCP, internally and externally.
Question : If you are being injured which is caused by a group of people who work for American company ( 50% own by government - The Navy Dept., 50% own by private individual investor ) the company is headquarter located in America and branches are placed around the globe, and one branch is located in your boundary , an employees of that branch , a person who have same nationality but all attitude are separate across the road side are trying to harm you, intimidate your internal and out side of the thinking process system, cheat on your privacy life and limit your personal space, copy your bloods Types and DND , and cheat on your genome , who can you report to ?
My question is how did they get the permits to travel on some of the restricted areas on the greatwall and how exactly did they "dodge" the covid lockdowns? Suspecting they have some sort of connection with the authorities to make this trip to happen, which dors make this whole thing very very fishy.
@@wjm2000 true but the rules only got relaxed last week. Pretty sure this wasn't filmed just last week and btw, they even said their trip took months to complete.
You cannot run a marathon a day for 6 months along the entire Great Wall. The length is way too long, the terrain in Shaanxi has gullies and deep gorges. His father did not do the same feat either, 35 years ago with no GPS data, it would have been even much more difficult.
Will take 548 days if they run 40km a day they must be balling there no way average joe is affording that. If they do it fair enough if not won’t be surprised
Impossible. They just mislead the media and the public. The thing is , do they actually follow the actual Wall or the length of it? 40Km on flat terrain out in the West of China is doable. However, as you head east, it becomes more mountainous.
When will Putin be weakened enough, so China can unite with Manchuria, without sanctions? Perhaps China will buy Manchuria back by paying Ukraine war reparations (on Putin's behalf)? Current consensus is August 2023🧭🕧⏳

I don't see any camping gear, are they hiking during the day and staying at a five star hotel at night?
Seem fishy, isn't it?
Very cool running 👍👏
I have climbed the Great Wall of China back in 2008 and it is slippery too.
I can’t believe any one is visiting China.
Hey how are you doing..?
看好你的🐶眼
That's because you were fed too much western propaganda.

Thanks BBC for showing, It’s amazing video ❤️.
At first I didn't understand why these young lads were in charge of Internet censorship, but then realized I had misread the headline. #greatfirewall
These young lads are brilliant
They have two off-road vehicles giving them support
Iv actually had this dream since secondary
And the twist is no one was chasing them!
EPIC!! would love to know how they replenish their supplies !! running a single marathon is very tough.... i can only salute them if they run one a day on such harsh terrain !! AMAZING!!!
two jeeps provide support
This is a very amazing story 😍
This is the best way to avoid China's Covid restrictions. (u can run around across the great wall) 👍
That it great job

After all these years, Finally, something good about China 😎
Wow is it that long
22,000km
They can try The Great Himalayan Trail next
You can walk amongst the world's tallest mountains from start to finish of the Himalayan mountain range
Let them run the Pacific Crest Trail next. No chase vehicle to assist them though.
They took a month to run from Jiayuaguan to Shandan, seems to me that they did not dodge the lockdowns.
So?
Could you report the strikes, anti-war protests, people dying needlessly of cold in poverty, corrupt government and rampant immigration - by any chance?
