Today's video was an absolute dream and nightmare to make. Whist this isn't our full time job (yet), it is never lost on us how lucky we are to be able to do what we do. Thank you to everyone who has supported us over the years, you make this shit possible. Welcome to Castle Gayskull!
Well this brings back memories!. A few mates and myself hired a small motor boat from the locals back in 1998 near the pub further up the loch. We explored the full length of the loch over the course of the day and ended up at the very spot you are in this video. We pitched our tents in the same spot you did and lit a huge roaring fire in the hearth on the evening and cooked over it using that low wall to prep all the food. There's a lot of hidden passages in those walls leading to defence positions and now missing floors!. Great times. Apparently When the water's really low in the summer you can wade across from the mainland.
I wanted to find out more information about this castle before watching so i went on a search. This 13th century castle is called Innis Chonnell Castle if anyone else wants to check out the history on it!
Colin Campbell the 1st of Argyll who owned the castle in 1315 was my distant grandfather's nephew. Colin Campbell of Glenorchy. Cool little find. Will need to check it out one weekend
Hi guys. I'm really struggling at the moment with mental health issues. U guys are putting a big smile on my face. Love the new film making me piss me self 😜🤪😝 Please keep up the good work. Stay groovy Russ.
I've followed you guys right from the start. And your videos keep getting more and more impressive. Now, I'm a broken, disabled person, and I rely on you guys to do my exploring for me. It's a pleasure to support you. I hope you can make it your full-time job soon, too.
Another Castle on an Island is Lochindorb in Scotland near Grantown on Spey. I nearly made it to the Castle as a youngest in a blow up cheap dingy. I did end up with Hypothermia, as I was pushed out in the dingy by my older sister and with no paddles I just drifted out towards the island. They thought my waves for help was me having too much fun. this is the second video of yours that I am watching. Watching the video's with you in Kayaks really makes me want to paddle out to the Castles on the Locks myself, and camp out. You can't beat the feeling of getting somewhere under your own power that isn't a bike and definitely not wearing lycra.
As someone who is restricted in what i can do & where I can go, I would just like to say thankyou for showing me the majesty & beauty of our incredible country. Makes it even better that you're from my neck of the woods 😉 love seeing how emotional Norton gets when he sees these stunning places. Keep up the great work lads, much love & respect, Kat xxx
Im so jealous at the history and insane bunkers around your country. Im from Las Vegas where everything gets torn down and rebuilt. Have nothing but homeless people and flood washes. Love your videos.
It's no wonder I would rather watch You Tube than rubbish on TV, why are we paying the BBC a stupid amount of money when people like these lads are far more entertaining, I'm a new subscriber ☺
Telly license is an involuntary subscription to a channel I never use. It’s bloody annoying having being forced to pay for it. The forceful campaign and harassment of people is disgraceful. I don’t know how we can bring it to an end.
Just cancel it and say you don't watch it. It's only if you watch live BBC, BBC related stuff. Get a TV with apps and just tell them straight. You don't watch TV, just TH-cam videos and play a console. I haven't had one for 7 years now. Hope that helps.
That’s a memory that will stay with you forever. Just found you on TH-cam subscribe to your channel, nice to see a bunch of lads just enjoying themselves. Thank you
Wise words. I went to school for a whole bunch of stuff thinking of careers. Never have I been happier since I embraced what i loved as a kid! I’m a creative person with a multimedia workshop now.
Great to see three guys having fun. As someone who has been camping many years and a kayaker too i have to say two things. 1/ four miles kayaking is not far. 2/your camping skill need a lot of improving. That from someone who is 71 and has just kayaked ten miles down the Cornish north coast.
I absolutely loved this, Lloydy your editing skills are phenomenal....what a beautiful adventure, what a stunning place and the fun you guys bring to every video is just tops...thank you for sharing this with us all, we appreciate you....and I want a Castle Gayskull T-shirt....and one of those bacon and hotdog baguettes too....exceptionally great one this....cheers boys x
I want a Castle Gayskull t.shirt, or a 'Norton took me in the Dungeon on Gayskull Island' one. You 3 crack me up, with the funniest most mental exploration chhannel on YT. Just keep the content coming.
45 minutes!! What a treat! More of these long episodes please! You guys are awesome and entertaining no matter what you do or where you go. You always make me laugh or smile cuz you’re so down to earth n don’t bow to this woke bollox.True Brits even tho you’re bloody northerners 🙄😂😂😂 #TeamAl 🤘🏼
Im a newbie subscriber, just found you guys, fantastic stuff, got all your past video's to watch, better than watching the telly😅 , very funny but interesting and addictive viewing.👍👍👍
Bugger you three are so funny, youre right about no other camping video like this. I loved it, you were quite at home in the castle. Cooking and eating on top of the castle was awesome. Look forward to watching more. Thankyou
Thanks for the great video from a fan in Chicago who'd gladly drop everything except my family to be able to visit the absolutely cool places you lot do.
Been watching you guys since the very beginning 8 years ago, i remember watching the Sheffield ski village video. Its sick to see guys grow, loving the new content, BIG RESPECT !!! im surprised i never bumped into you guys on an explore i literally live in leeds haha
Great video guys, that place was creepy at night. Those sandwiches looked so good. I definitely have to make those. The water was so calm the morning you left, it was like glass. I'm glad you guys had a good outing. You guys get crazy when you're together and you crack me up with some of your antics. Take care and I'll be looking forward to your next video. I love them all.
Brilliant show, really loved this one, and yes you are correct, amazing that you get to do this x But, making life happen makes it worth living, and sharing this with us, makes us feel we take the journey with you, thanks for that, just awesome boys x Loved the longer show alsox And I totally want one of those T Shirts Castle Gayskull. By the way, it is called Innis Chonnell Castle
i went there in 2010 and it was full of rubbish, bags and bags of it just chucked everywhere. It's nice to see that it's been cleaned up, if everyone takes away every single thing that they take there then people can continue to have these kinds of adventures there.
I just recently came across your channel and love your content. I watch you from Oregon USA and would loved to camp in that castle!! What a wonder adventurers!! Looking forward to watching many many more ❤
Here’s some unsolicited advice Tent man rating’s are always one less than they actually are so for 3 people you want a 4 man tent Second if you want to sleep really well a good quality thick sleeping pad is worth every penny, i personally use a big Agnes brand inflatable sleeping pad and it’s really good but it was like £80 so might be to expensive. There’s two reasons you want a good quality one, first comfort, second they provide lots of warmth, no matter how good your sleeping bag is a bad sleeping pad will result in a cold night.
Some dungeons had tiny gaps so the prisoners could leave when they had lost enough weight. A skinny weak prisoner was easier to deal with than one that was healthy and strong. They did it with unruly slaves as well.
@11:10, Nortons speech really touched me, as a 7 year old and hoping to emulate Al for my entire life I’ve decided to go for it! I’m quitting grade 4! Fuck yeah!
I jumped in this Glacier fed lake while camping for a Bath . It was So Cold my Body Contracted and forced out all my Air . I sent like a Stone . I was 8 ft from shore and there was a drop off . I was able to push off a bit of rock and shoot myself above the surface to grab another Breath . I thought I was Dead for sure , and if my Buddies had jumped in to help . They would die too . When I made it back to shore . No one else wanted a shower . The next night we camped in a Campground with 100s of Grad Students . Lots of Girls and I was the only one who didn't Stink . Ended up at a site where one of the Residents was a Star on a TV series in the 70s . Moral of the Story . Check the temp of your Bathwater before you jump in and inhale and Stay Clean .
Add Another Funky Story from Your Past . Experiences are Best . Mine Had 35mm Pics . No Vids . These Mugwumps Are Cool . They Educate , Entertain and Give Me A Good Feeling ! Thanks Gang
a friend recommended this channel I am going to binge watch you guys your truly worth watching and funny yet awesome just subscribed watching from cumbria uk
That was brilliant - your production work keeps getting better, but the foundations of a bunch of lads having a laugh are still there. Keep going lads!
I got towed for hours on my sit on top last year down the chester canals was so relaxing lol wasnt quiet though, another great uploads lads, i love this channel
Hey guys....your kayaks need spray decks in them. Stops water going in kayak and is elasticated so seals around rib on top. Really will help yous. Love the uploads guys. Theres a lake in ireland with a castle on the shore with ruins on an island in the middle of the lake...would be good one for u to check out......do a bushcraft camp on? Keep up the goodness. Peace.
Good one. I agree one of the best yet. Where would the other two be without Norton? Good to see that you acquired some new kit. I think the reason for the size of the tent is so body heat is shared between occupants. Even if its a bit tight I think its a nice tent. You guys will have to take it on a winter camp and film the pron video you guys are always talking about. Enjoyed this one! Take care.
I love how the adventures in Scotland alway surprise with how awesome they are. "getting cheesey here" but been following you lads for years and this (and plenty of your other vids) is up there with the best content of any urban explorer/adventure stuff on here (...in your own unique way). keep them coming.

I think you should just do camping trips like this every time. This format is great.
Great editing as always. Thanks guys.
Absolutely loving these videos lately boys! Great spot & perfect video length for this sort of explore. You guys deserve tons more subscribers.
Would probably get waaay more subs if it wasn't for the constant gay innuendos.

What a dream place to camp
8:13 Can see how excited Norton is 😱
😂😂😂😂😂
A castle in the middle of an island. The guy who made it knew what every man wants😂 especially me. Sounds like bliss.
Im a newbie subscriber, just found you guys, fantastic stuff, got all your past video's to watch, better than watching the telly😅 , very funny but interesting and addictive viewing.👍👍👍
I wish you guys would do a ghost hunt, it would be hilarious.
'Underage girl enthusiast'. I love Al's turn of phrase. Another gem.
Bravo Gentlemen! Take a bow. That was insanely great.
"you eating that or just sucking it off?" 26:35
first real time I've laughed all year.
Bugger you three are so funny, youre right about no other camping video like this. I loved it, you were quite at home in the castle. Cooking and eating on top of the castle was awesome.
Look forward to watching more. Thankyou
The alien dentist conversation made me feel like I was on drugs. Hilarious stuff! 🤣😂
Great video, guys. I hope, one day, the three of you can make a living out of making this kind of trips and make more videos.

4:08 the evolution of this channel is amazing...
your editing and music is awsesome and you guys make it funny keep it going
This is one of your best videos. 45 minutes of tomfoolery adventure. I would have liked to see video of a camera lowered down in the dungeon.
This is the funniest video you guys have made in quite a long time...Really made my day. :)
I never know when you guys are taking the piss or being serious. I love it
Really loving the videos. Perfect mix of humour & exploring, really brightens up my day!
