    See now, aren't you glad you weren't hiking in the U.S. Southwestern desert? I live there and just came back a few days ago from a hiking trip, and you can never leave anything (especially your shoes) outside your tent in the desert because scorpions love to climb inside them during the night. Rattlers too; they love shoes. Nothing like shoving your feet into your sneakers and having to go to the hospital afterwards... Man, I'd love to visit the Shanklin Museum; that looks fantastic; and oh MAN, that fossil shop! **makes grabby hands** I can totally sympathize with your aches and pains; in the middle of my trip I wimped out and stayed in a cheap hotel in Alamagordo NM so I could soak all day in a hot bath and sleep on a real bed. Do not judge me; the desert is a cruel bastard.
    Looking forward to Part II and your further adventures!

    I just finished a month long mapping project on the Isle for my third year uni report, gotta say it’s weird but highly entertaining to see all this stuff in the video and recognise this as areas I spent days mapping in. Also can confirm climbing Culver down (2:55) sucks

    You've inspired me - I want to go to IoW now.
    Also, you gave me flashbacks to when I was surrounded by about 20-30 cows when out walking my dog, that all started bucking and jumping very threateningly.
    It took quite a while to reach the edge of the field, opening my jacket like a kid pretending to be Batman, to make myself look bigger and get them to back off, spinning round and round, coz it was always the ones I wasn't facing that'd make the charge.

    I'm Welsh but spent most of my childhood on the Isle of Wight (dad got a job there.) Didn't have nearly as much local celebration of dinosaurs there back then, that museum didnt exist. Parents still live there and I visit them a couple times a year. I finally got to visit that museum during a visit last summer; it's great; I was there a good couple of hours and still didn't properly see everything. Going there again on a future visit for sure!

  • @Riceball01
    @Riceball01 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    If you guys ever find yourselves contemplating a visit to the US, you should plan for at least one day to visit LA, we have a pretty good dinosaur hall at the Natural History Museum of LA. There's also a really good mammal hall featuring the fossils of many different extinct mammals. There are also plenty of other really nice exhibits, including three separate exhibits featuring mounts of present day mammals.
    In the same area as the Natural History Museum there's also a very nice science museum which is free to visit. But, for a small fee of something like $2 (the last time I went) you can go visit the Space Shuttle Discovery exhibit, which is worth the small fee. You get to see all sorts of things related to the space shuttle program and its history. The highlight of the exhibit is being able to see the shuttle itself, which you can walk around and under. It's displayed so low that you feel like if you were tall enough you could just reach out and touch the bottom of it, a really fantastic exhibit.

    Wow watching you guys hunting for that sausage roll after many hours of walking would be a similar experience
    to what many Paleolithic hunters would have experienced when big game hunting thousands of years ago.
    High risk high reward, but sometimes you miss out on that mammoth sausage roll and you have to make do with chips!!
