The Honey Hunters of Nepal have a 260 year-old tradition of scaling mountains in search for a rare honey only found in the Himalayas that makes people hallucinate. We travel to the depths of the country of Nepal in search for these brave people and capture their story.
These stories searching for some of the world's rawest and most authentic experiences is what I feel most excited about in this chapter of my journey as a story-teller. Super proud of this one, I hope you enjoy :)

Our friend Cory S Martin who shot this story with us, one of the best cinematographer on the internet right now JUST launched his own channel and we're trying to get his first few thousand subscribers. He created his own cinematic cut of this story, watch it here and subscribe!! th-cam.com/video/KGWc4z6TTgQ/w-d-xo.html

Cory is so brave
Hey Guys, I'm from Tripura, a small state in northeastern part of India(near bangladesh). Its amazing how you people never fail to amaze with all these amazing videos. I invite YES THEORY to come here and join one of our indigenous festival called "GARIA". In the months of APRIL, It's celebrated across the state and across all the 19 tribes of TRIPURA for 7 days. Celebration of a victory (war), fought by our ancestors many many hundreds of years ago and worshiping the GOD(indigenous)"BABA GARIA". It will be amezing just like your stuff to have you guys here and to witness one of the largest indigenous festival of TRIPURA.
Peace!

@@thruschizoaffectiveeyes rhododendron has its origin in the himalayas...like many "garden" plants we know nowadays...whilst thw wild species of the himalayas still has healing properties...the ones we know growing in europe and america have been brought in from the himalayas and have been altered...so whilst its the same plant, its not exactly the same anymore...
One of the craziest experiences of my life! So stoked I was able to create this film with you boys! One of my favorites we’ve made together for sure and I love how it came out! Here’s to many more!!
1st
It’s my dream to go on one of the adventures, congratulations man!
I'm goated on the sticks
Glad you came to NEPAL 🇳🇵.
Hope u had a great time 🙏❤.
Jay nepal.
seek discomfort Botswana , Africa..long time fan guys love your work
At this point, you guys honestly deserve you’re own National Geographic show 👏
I wholeheartedly agree!
*Exactly what I thought* This is so totally engaging. NAT Geo would have a professional voice over. This is real.
This Channel and all their documentaries are way more authentic . Be awesome to have long, full length documentaries from these guys
Indeed, they most certainly do.

The guide who just said he's tired because he just got home from Everest and just telling it like he just came from the grocery store is what gets me.
Why did they report on the chicken? They ate every part of the chicken. Nothing went to waste! Ever been to MCDonalds? They literally use every thing. I think America uses chickens more resourcefully.

@@derekhiebert1654what are you yappin about bro? This video is about honey?
@@WraithLK 17:34
Hailing from Kathmandu, the urban lifestyle I enjoyed pretty much never got me into the depths of my own country sadly. I've heard about these honeys my entire life but never really knew anything more. Today I see people like Cody, from miles away coming here and exploring our country's hidden stories, just blows me away.
Thank you brother.
No one has ever documented the honey-hunting process with such a level of production. Cheers guys and love from Nepal.
No youre wrong...National Geo dit it
That's not true kid... Just because you're ignorant doesn't mean there's nothing more to things.

You are most welcome to visit sir. #visitnepal2022 🇳🇵
Nepal =/= China.
I know no one asked but just wanted to make it clear
with leeches 😂
i am from india and here we respect the nepali peoples coz they're so hardworking and very kind hearted.
Incredible story and film. If Ashdan is the last honey hunter if his village at least his work has been captured in such a beautiful and respectful way. His poses at the end were epic.
I absolutely love how many folks from Nepal are thrilled in the comments about this video. What a great job at respecting and honoring an age old tradition and culture.
After visiting Nepal you will come back again and again, I guarantee you!
Yup. Happy to see yes theory in my country. I'm a city guy and I won't dare to go there like these guys did.
The Nepalese are one of the most humble, friendliest & hospitable people I have ever met. Your video is such an eye opener on this unique Nepali harvest of mountain honey. Thank you for this amazing video worthy to be in National Geography.
ya nepali people are awesome. Made many friends over the years.
Btw are you mostly buddhist?
@@Azubjourni no, most are Hindu! Buddhists make up the lesser portion.
@@nimis2690 They deleted your comment and idk why but thanks for the answer. I thought they where mostly buddhists but i think both have no issues togheter.
thank u 🙏🏻 from nepal 🇳🇵
Im not kidding. I've watched this documentary about 10 times, and it still amazes me everytime. The way you guys are able to capture this community and the tradition even with the language barrier amazes me. The art that you guys create, the combination of the skill of Cory and your ability to handle the camera, the editing, the sound, everything creates such a beathiful image. The most amazing part to me is how you can combine the style of documentary and vlogging without destroying either one. Beathiful!
15:35 im still wondering what kind of phone the guy in the back has lol
Why don’t u marry this documentary then
Just U tubers many out there .
Shaman guy is my favorite, they are so happy to meet new people and its almost unbelieveable how genuine and honest is all of those people... This video is a masterpiece and im loving every minute of it
I'm from Nepal and I cannot appreciate Yes Theory enough for creating this film. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Incredible! You guys have some of the best storytelling and this adventure is next level. I feel so weak watching these honey hunters. Btw insane cinematography by Cory!
Hey just kay i had really learned many things from your content you guys should visit nepal.

@@goldsnafu which videos?
The entire documentary is absolutely amazing! I was like"wow", this is so unreal, how these guys managed to do that. But in general, even if you guys went through a lot the best part is always the safety of each and everyone. I cant help myself feeling so immerse into this documentary. I felt ive been with you guys, witnessing as well in real! I cant stop myself admiring the culture, tradition, their strong belief, and the people in it. How truly amazing they are. Maybe i am too late to watch this but thankyou for sharing this to the world. I really love it!
Damn, Cory is just amazing!
This level of cinematography in a TH-cam video is just over the top. Can't believe i am watching this for free, yes theory is one of those channels that stood by the test of time and kept producing amazing videos. If anything their videos have only gotten a lot lot better.
I am from Nepal and am genuinely speechless for the adventure you guys have done with courage. We are here ready to welcome people from all around to world with a smiley face and true hospitality from the heart. lots of love from Nepal.
🇳🇵
That’s amazing. Thanks for this friend.
@Tsadik Stella what?
Do you consume that honey?
Could I purchase this honey? I'm willing to cashapp you the money to send me one jar 🤔🤗
Mad respect to this honey hunter. His skill and courage are off the charts yet he is kind and amiable. At age 58...INCREDIBLE!!!
This is one of the most amazing videos I have ever seen. You do such an amazing job depicting what this would actually look like (obviously you were there) but for the viewer, what an experience. Thank you for this.
When I was younger, I had a teacher who went to Nepal and told us about the bees. I’ve been interested in the country ever since then and hope to visit Nepal one day. Thanks for the awesome video!
Warm welcome❤
Fun fact: The national flower of Nepal is rhododendron, the same flower that provides hallucinating qualities to the honey. we do things here differently 😉
I am from Himachal Pradesh India and rhododendron is our state flower here

Being a Nepali, I was unknown of this magnificent story which I really appreciate you guys for bringing this in-front of us in such a beautiful way. Such a great story and video. Loved it. Love from Nepal. ♥️
How came you not know abt it ??? 😁😁 There's a documentary also abt it by vice channel.

This is literally the first video I've ever seen of you guys and I must say I am very very impressed I didn't even know this existed thank you so much for this beautiful video stay safe out there wherever you go, I'm a new fan (:
I was just going to fast forward through this to get to the good parts, but I’m loving every minute of it so far. Great job, guys. You make me feel as if I’m taking the trip with you.
The first person to start harvesting this honey and start this tradition must have been 10x as mad. Truly amazing, glad this was captured for all to see.
more like 100× u can say
Automatic thumbs down. There was already a documentary on this. This is simply just copying such documentary. Its like if someone just went back and filmed all the animals that national geographic did. But anything for ad money right.
@@BestMods168 if it’s so easy to replicate why don’t you go make a video about it
@@BestMods168 That makes zero sense there are thousands of documentaries on the same things like the Pyramids doesnt make it any less incredible.
@@TheJusnic82 in all fairness, this is like a carbon copy of the video Vice made about it like 7 years ago. At least the pyramid videos bring something new to the table, even if they are not evidence based and are just pure speculation.
The fact that this amazing video is free for us to watch is just on another level! Congratulation Yes Theory!!
Hypothesis.
Massive Thank You. Amazing.
Yeah. 🎉
don't you pay for internet? nothing is free
Amazing that it is free? Lol.
Wow... OMG. This movie, and yes, it is a movie, is just perfect. The cinematography work makes this 100 times more impressive... the angles, the cameras you put on the stick Ashdon was using, the consistent filming even through an extremely tough hike... I have been following Yes Theory since Project 30 and I am just in awe at what you guys have accomplished and how far you've come.
Dang, this was packed of so much danger and discomfort! What an incredibly unique experience but one I rather watch than attempt myself voluntarily. Learning from your guys' story-telling. All those leeches alone would have driven me crazy to begin with, plus the bees, and the constant danger of slipping on those paths or sledding off the muddy road. You guys are incredibly brave (and truly crazy at times)!
The fact that this is for free and on TH-cam is baffling to me, the production quality alone is crazy, not to mention the actual content!
they just do a normal vlog
“The fact that” guy
They make money off sponsors. If they get over a million views there getting paid fairly well for this free video.
Yeah that's literally all done for them by professionals and sponsors paying for everything. All those 2 guys did was complain throughout the video. About leeches and bees, actually saying that in a full beesuit while a guy is barefoot, barehands, no safety literally hanging a bamboo strain away from death hanging what at least 50 yards+ in the air while accepting a full on bee attack with 200 bees actually stinging him. So hypocritical with that positivity speech towards the end as he complained throughout the whole thing and literally has done nothing apart from walking with a go-pro. That's all facts too and what baffles me tbh.
@@dwoolaver1549 exactly the locals who made it all happen probably got very little of anything for their efforts & exploration. Fucking regular TH-cam video these days nothing exceptional whatsoever here. “The fact that” comments are over the top, corny & played out. Bunch of parrots.
Felt like I've watched an extremely high quality 40 minute movie. So thrilled to have witnessed this amazing experience you guys had! Excited on your next adventure!
watch their other movies they are even better from their must watch section
you did
Yes same here
Did feel like a movie. Comedy when they first arrived they seemed confused like this isn’t the Ritz.
ok
I'm from Nepal and it's my first time watching your video. The way you are representing Nepal is great. I get to learn alot of things from here. Thank you for exploring Nepal and representing it in a global level.
Can really relate to the line … ‘what are we doing here ?’ That’s my favourite saying whenever I go trekking to any place and suddenly realise the gravity of the situation… But salute to you guys for the deep respect you showed to a culture ,people, custom that is totally different to yours and showcasing it to the world as well. Thank you, stay blessed and healthy.
Some great sacrifice was made for this film - thank you guys!
They'd sacrifice the chickens either way
I'm a silent watcher I spend hours in yt everyday and never comment but this video I couldn't resist! This video is so well structured we have the impression of being there with you, the quality is impeccable,those shots that were taken are beautiful we really submerge through them! Thank you so much for showing us their amazing history of hunting honey,if it weren't for you guys I wouldn't imagine how hard and dangerous their journey is! Beautiful video, thank you so much for offering us this masterpiece (:
Aw he liked your comment

Appreciated from Nepalese person 😀
At some point the silent watcher meets a video that lures him out of his hiding spot.
@@BronkoBanane its a man not a women
I watched the entire video once again for the second time today (the first time being on its release day). I still felt the freshness, excitement, happiness, and fear ❤️ It's one of my favorite videos on TH-cam, from Yes Theory. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. ❤️ Much love.
Coming from the Rai community it is indeed a very good documentation of our culture which is on the verge of going extinct. Thank you so much for documenting one of the last honey hunters of our tribe
Purba kun thau ho bro
Being a Nepali myself I’m proud to see these indigenous people who work day and night to keep their tradition alive. Thanks fellas for covering and creating such a wonderful content. We Nepalis appreciate it.
I want to visit Nepal someday 💙🏜️🌵🇺🇲th-cam.com/video/b9UH54BhI0E/w-d-xo.html

The videos are soooo well made, edited, the music everything just perfect and feels like you’re part of the trip 👍🏻
Can we take a moment to appreciate Cory here!! The fact that he was doing all of this, while trying to get good videos/shots and had to take on even more risk to film this video in such a beautiful way!!!! I cannot appreciate and thank him enough and admire his bravery (along with the bravery of everyone else in this video)
"Only time will tell, If we just witnessed the last bee hunter" gave me goosebumps.
Thomas's storytelling ♥️
honey
Come to Nepal we have lots...🤣
❤️🇳🇵 come nepal 🇳🇵
That was just for dramatic purpose.They are gonna continue harvesting honey for another 1000 years.
The thirst in these comment replies is hilarious
these guys deserves an award, that all people in this world will remember how amazing the content. and not just only a content coz they're showing us that in other countries there's a way of living and a wonderful cultures they had!
ive been on a couple of hikes.. the last one i did was just 7-8 kms but at the end of it i was gassed out. i told myself im never going hiking again idc about the view from the top anymore, im done. watching this video makes me want to get fit and go explore out there again. you guys have pulled a miracle here by getting all the shots that you've gotten. i can only imagine how difficult it must ve been.
I've been watching yes theory for a very long time, but today, after watching this particular video, I am even more connected with them.🇳🇵 These guys always share the story of the extraordinary part of the world, and I think no one would have been able to tell the story better. These videos always warm my heart. I love you guys. You guys never cease to amaze us. And thank you for exploring this part of my country. SAY YES!! SEEK DISCOMFORT!!❤️😭

As someone who's been following Yes Theory for years and years now. I am happier than ever to finally see you guys exploring Nepal. Thankyou so much and hope you'd come back again for exploring more of Nepal🇳🇵

Please be aware that this is not an original story. They copied this story from a Nat Geo film made by Matt Irving and Renan ozturk and did not even change the title!!!

That is absolute insanity, what an incredible job and cinema you just created! Watching videos like this gives me such a travel bug. Keep inspiring people to seek discomfort.
This was one of the best videos yet thanks for going back tp the old platform of making videos they are the best
If you haven't seen these parts of the world, you can't imagine the scale of things. The mountains are enormous.
Check out the largest cave in the world.
There is something so authentic and real about this film. Not tacky cinematics but a superb documentary on things that are actually so inspiring and spirit-enticing travels! Can’t thank y’all enough for showing and sharing this ❤️❤️
They didn't overly focus on that incidental, candid (beautiful) shot of Mt. Everest. They just kept it pushing.
I came here after your clip on JRE. Reminds me of where my Grandparent's lived. Your camera work is award winning. The aerial shots are breathtaking. I knew this was going to be fascinating as well as tense. You should hilite your trips & get recognized by Discovery & Nat Geo. 👍🏻
This is probably the best travel video I've ever seen on TH-cam. Keep it up!
Drones really did change the game for indie content producers. Amazing content!
Indie cinematography are always better ♥
My favourite of all time is Rolf Nylinder. He makes fly fishing indie productions but I can recommend him even if you don't like fishing because the story telling is fantastic.
Somebody needs to buy those Nepal bee guys a few drones with cutters on em. Just fly it up there and get the honey.

It was amazing! Hope you 2 are doing well! Been thinking of Bec a lot and how she is getting on! xx

So true! This felt like a NatGeo episode and I’m here for it.

I adore Nepal. The sketchy road trip brought back so many memories hahah terrifying at the time but I look back on those memories fondly.
This is by far one of the most incredible experiences I've observed through someones eyes, it truly shows how these videos bring people into unity and curiosity instead of judgement for the unique ways of humans and their relationship with mother Gaia. It's beautiful and I am so grateful to witness it. Much love Yes team

The message is profound!!!!
Keep up what your doing !!!!
Hey, just a suggestion I almost didn’t click on this because I didn’t want to watch a 40 minute TH-cam movie lol maybe if you make some TH-cam shorts or something a little shorter just to give us a taste of what we’re gonna get because that was absolutely amazing and I’m so glad I did not miss it by not clicking on it. Thank you for your amazing journey. You have a new subscriber for life.
PS I just found your friends 5 1/2 minute short of this very good idea now push that advertise that in places that normally people wouldn’t watch this type of thing!! You guys are gonna blow up 🎉🎉🎉🎉!!!!!
This video brought tears to my eyes. I felt so immersed the whole time and did not notice that this was 39 minutes long. And Cory’s shots, are you kidding me? That’s some next level cinematography right there! Just pure talent. I can feel all the effort and passion poured into making this and I cannot be more proud. Yes Theory deserves all the recognition in the world. You guys are INSANE. Hands down the best storytellers and video creators on TH-cam. Please don’t stop making videos.

One of the craziest and beautiful video ever seen.We got to know more about this hunting of mad honey experience as a nepali we were uninformed about this. Thank you YES THERORY for showing every little details about the experiences and life style of the people living there.
Ive been to remote places like these in the himalayas. Its a hard life that these people lead and yet, you'd always find them with a smile. Ive hardly ever seen them complaining about anything or even frown.
Mad respect. Can't imagine how hard and scary it is to be there. The last bee hunter definitely deserves a standing ovation. I would love to be a part of Yes Theory just to experience this first hand. Respect to you Asdan

No its expensive because its so hard to get and the amount thats actually sold is very low
Don't think it's made to be spread on toast! I just watched Joe Rogan with the guy from Best Ever Food review show and how he explains its effects is quite scary.
The whole thing of your video is amazing!! Except one of your friends he is whining and complaining the whole trip. He didn’t realize how rare and amazing he get to seen things like these. I enjoyed the whole video even just seeing the views. It’s a breath taking!!
Hope he realizes that the whole trip he just had a bad attitude!
Overall l thank you for all your hard work to bring this to us! It inspired me to put this country in my bucket lists!!
This video is the most AMAZING thing I've seen in a long time I have no words except I wish I found y'all on you tube a long time ago..... good stuff guy's.
So glad you finally went to Nepal. This beautiful country was my first experience travelling outside of my home country. I stayed in a remote village much like this for three months building clean water facilities. The experience completely changed my life. Sadly, the charirty that organised the project and many more like it went insolvent and shut down last month. R.I.P Raleigh International, it's a shame the UK goverment decided to withdraw funding despite all the good that came from their existence.
Raleigh int. was doing superb here in Nepal sad to see them go
how did it actually change your life.
@@GroteGlon The biggest way is that working in the village school teaching hygiene made me want to switch careers to international teaching.
I've since worked as a teacher in the UK, Japan, China and I'm currently working on my visa paperwork for Taiwan.
@oliverpicken3320 I am a middle school public educator here in the US, and I can say that a visit I took to Belize and a poor school I visited with other teachers broke my heart. We played with the kids at recess and they showed us their art. They did a cultural dance for us. I can see how you would fall in love with teaching. These kids were eager to learn but had zero technology.
Watching this makes me wish I had the opportunity to experience the world as you guys are. Best of luck and health to you. Keep showing us what we can not see for ourselves. Thank you.
It's never too late, ask yourself why not just do it
@@pb9405 long story short. My wife and I had the opportunity to remove my nephews from a place they shouldn't ever have been in and we decided to do it. We had 3 children of our own which 2 were much older than our 3rd who's only 2 to 5 years older than my nephews. We did have plans to travel and see things as my children are grown or nearly adult age. We felt it was our responsibility to make sure they didnt go to foster homes or with their biological father, no need to go into details but he should be worm food for his actions against them. It was a choice we made that I have no regrets over and would not change if I had to do it all over again... And recently we also had taken care of my grandmother and mother in our home until their passing. Which sadly happened within 2 months of each other my grandmother to old age and my mother to a long hard fought battle with cancer they both passed as peacefully as possible in their own beds in the arms of those that loved them. I couldn't think of a better way to honor them and show my love and respect for them. You see sir sometimes we just arent given the opportunity to just go do it so we watch, learn and hope that one day we can. Sorry said it was going to be a long story short lol it kinda was though. Have a good day.
@@noblepotatopb969 Wow, what a story. I have huge respect for you and I can tell you're a good person. It's relieving to hear stories like this to remind me that there are people like you. It's been my own mindset to ask myself "why not just do it" instead of saying "one day I'll do it", but I sometimes forget how complex every persons life is. I've been saving money during my studies and I'm finally leaving next September for a year on a worldtrip alone. If I wait longer then maybe my conditions change and it's no longer possible to leave everything behind for a year. Hope I can also make a good story like yours. Have a good day and a good life!
@@pb9405 best of luck to you and safe travels. You are correct go while you can and life is one big crazy ride where it stops nobody knows. Enjoy yourself out there.
@@noblepotatopb969 Dude, you don't need to justify your life to a stranger on YT. Just keep doing your thing, especially if your thing is helping someone at risk. Respect. Seeing the world is wonderful, but not everyone is in a position to do so. Hopefully all your good deeds will come back to you and you'll get a chance to travel some day.
man couldn't help but keep on praising for your guts.
he really shot that moment with that close.
thanks for visiting our country.
I love you guys, but i hope you were paying an unbelievable amount of money for those people that carried your bags on such terrain. I cant believe the amount of strength they have to be hiking that long with those heavy load. As always, amazing inspiring video!
This is jaw-dropping! The fact that these people do all of this, specially Ashdan, climbing up that cliff with no safety net is insane... and just for honey. It's incredible what these people are able to do with their bodies and minds. They also seem so kind and nice. I bet you guys had a great (exhausting) time. This is probably of the best mini-documentaries/videos, you've done. Great job to every one involve in the making of this video and props to Cory for having the balls to climb down just to get those shots! Simply, fenomenal!
Human bodies and minds have so much potential. It can do wonders when you train and push the limits continuously. Sadly the humankind has been only pushing their tolerance limits on a desk for half the day for their whole life these days.
Yes, we 'civilised' western peoples are spoiled, getting all the stuff in Walmart.
Most people do commercial 🙄 apiculture now
It never ceases to amaze me at how receptive these people are to you, coming from a different world, into theres and they always seem so happy
Thomas always selects positive friends. I think he has to lol, given that he will always eventually ask on or several of them to do something crazy.
He didn't even get a sponsor for this video due to the high risk. But, his friends really put their trust in him and had an experience, despite the high level of risk.
I loved everything about this except the part with climate change comment at the end!
@@seroogyw6238 Same here. 👍
you gotta be pretty stupid
how braindead are you bro? They get paid for each visit LMAO
Thank you so much for visiting and showering this much of love towards Nepal 🇳🇵🇳🇵I felt excellently be happy and excited to see you soon visiting Nepal again 🇳🇵❣️🇳🇵❣️
This is amazing. Love the video. I like goin on wild aventures too but this is out of my league!!!! Amazing job guys
As a Nepalese, I wanna say thank you for showing our diverse culture ,tradition and even our beautiful landscapes, I'm really grateful to you guys
being a Nepali ..i am absolutely thrilled to have you guys in Nepal for this risky adventure ..your love to the culture and different perspective you shown in this video ...and your storytelling is really amazing ..love the whole video ..i hope you guys come again and again to visit different parts and enjoy the adventure around the country ...respect 👏and love ♥️❣️
Nepal is indeed a beautiful country😍
That was incredible! The courage that these people have to just get the job done with what they have is amazing. Great video!
Wow, My first time watching your works. This was totally amazing. The whole crew are gutsy for doing this whole trip. Thanks for sharing
This might be the best video from the last 2 years of Yes Theory adventures!
Question: Did you by any chance had a detour in India before landing in Kathmandu?
Epic! Nepalese people seem so genuine and happy, brings a tear to my eye. Have a feeling that all those village people, who helped these guys make this happen were looked after with more money they would be able to spend..hopefully.
i doubt the money part but people are actually genuinely happy in villages.
I doubt they even expect anything
@@decoyheart218 that would be truly disappointing if yes theory didn't help them put in any way for what they did for them.
They might have been on a Honey High....
awesome,, big thanks for exploring beauty of Nepal and ofcourse how great our honey hunters are
Hi just came across your channel, I've watched two of your videos, I have really enjoyed them you all are so brave,love watching different cultures how they leave, thank you for taking us with you on this adventures.....👍👍👍👍
Ahhh yes.... Nepal. One of the most beautiful places on this planet. Some of the happiest and humblest people I have ever met. The contrast of Kathmandu´s chaos and then the silence up in the mountains. I am happy you had the chance to experience such an intense and intimite visit. And in the middle of monsoon season, you got lucky to see such an amazing panorama of the everest region. For me, the Himalayas humbled me to the core. Humans are just little dots on an ancient mountain face. We can only stand there for a blink of time and take in the beauty.
If I could, I´d go back right now.
The honey guy (I feel bad, I didn't catch his name) is so adorable. He's a badass for sure. Tiny little guy getting pumped with tons of venom while climbing a cliff with basically no gear and cutting honeycomb with a stick-basket and a stick-knife or whatever. Absolute legend.
and he is 58 years old.
He even has quite a badass name, Ashdan
Stroong in the Brethren.

This environment definitely needs a risk assessment.
Awesome video, thanks for sharing your work to the world !
Great film. Incredibly interesting subject matter. Mystical, magical and exciting.
Thank you for having the courage to make this film.
