Love the “just like that edit” Scenery just ridiculous It doesn’t matter how far you go It matters how close you look Another cracking video, great ‘warts and all’ story telling.
Norway is insane for the scenery, it’s a very special place! 🇳🇴 As for the storytelling, it’s good to talk about some of the realities whilst out on the road. Especially with two young kids! 🙃

Those "jellyfish" at 10:51 are just the common Aurelia aurita (latin), what we call "glassmanet" and "vassgopple" in Norwegian. They live close to the ocean surface where they find food, typically close to land, and are completely harmless (meaning: their venom is very weak, and has no noticeable effect on human skin). Absolutely no risk in swimming among them, but it is considerate to avoid and not damage them. This species is easily recognizable by the four large purple rings. But the one to definitely avoid is Cyanea capillata (latin), or "rød brennmanet" and "rød brennegopple" (red) in Norwegian due to its dark red/brown colour, and a fuller volume due to its thick veil. This species can grow huge: diameter up to 2 meters, with 30 meter long veil of strings (with thousands of nettle cells) ...so, never swim behind them! Their venom will really sting, especially if your skin touches a large number of nettle cells, and promises a strong pain and rash for a while longer than you like... The Cyanea lamarchi (latin), "blå brennmanet" and "blå brennegopple" (blueish colour) in Norwegian, is not as common as rød (red), but stay away from this species, too. The blue's venom is just as strong the red - but the animal itself is a bit smaller and has less and shorter strings in its veil, i.e. fewer total number of nettle cells than the red. We have other jellyfish species in the North Sea, the Norwegian Sea and along the Norwegian coast - but they are rarer, and some are deep sea creatures, thus far less likely to spot. It's good to see that you did not harm them. Peaceful animals.
Hahaha scared of glass jellyfish, (that's what they're called here in Norway). They are completely harmless, but what we call burning jellyfish, with long red threads, should not be touched. Love that you don't say specifically where you park up. Keep it up!
yup. at my family`s summercabin in southern Norway, the orange ones sometimes stop us from going in the sea, I am not a big fan of them@@projectwildearth
Hi there.... Congratulations first and foremost, for being a beautiful family, for the initiative, and for the courage of doing what you're doing and showing it to us. Didn't see any video on your channel regarding the prep for the trip... I'm also looking into trailers and yours made me curious...what is it? Which criteria did you use to choose this one specifically? About the grenadier.... Not scared being such a new vehicle may pose an issue if some problem happens....? Thanks!
Hi Bruno, thanks for the kind words! As for the prep, this was our first video, we really had next to no time to prepare.. th-cam.com/video/qGj1sWbNyS4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=p-9em3CLK0MNZfoN Our trailer is a Patriot X3. In terms of the criteria. This is more of a complex answer which we will address in an upcoming video. We'll do the same with the Grenadier. Short answer for the Grenadier - We've been following the Grenadier since the concept was first revealed as Projekt Grenadier and have maintained good communication with them ever since. We've loved the whole idea from the beginning, the story in the pub with Sir Jim's frustrations about the Defender etc and think it's amazing that it is now a reality! None of this was seriously in our life plan to be honest, it was always a distant dream but Covid changed all that. (Back story here - projectwildearth.com/about-us) Inflation was rife and when we wrote out the spec of the vehicle that we thought would work for us and searched what was available, it was looking like the Grenadier should just come online in time for our departure from London in July 2023. It ticked almost all the boxes, was built with mostly proven components by specialists within the industry, was backed by a driven billionaire on a mission, had a 5 year global warranty, and as much as we never thought we'd buy a brand new vehicle, with all things considered, it just made sense to commit when comparing it to everything else at the time. It was a bold move I guess but we have no regrets so far... We have a relatively well-kitted-out Trialmaster. Matt's used to doing these kinds of trips in very unsuitable vehicles that are far less capable than the Trailmaster and so we're confident the Grenadier will do the job.
Love the “just like that edit”
Scenery just ridiculous

Getting closer to the beginning of your trip. It's been a great journey.
@@alanmohn4146 Glad you’re enjoying the journey Alan! Is it not strange going backwards or you quite like doing it that way? 🤔
@@projectwildearth Never thought about it. It just seems fun.
@@alanmohn4146 Like you say, as long as you’re having fun! That’s the beauty of TH-cam, you can do whatever you like, whenever you like. 👍
Beautiful video from a spectacular landscape 😊
Thanks so much! Like you said, the landscape does most of the work for us. 😊
Fantastic to watch. Where are you now? I know this video is 1 year old😊

Thanks for the info! At the time we didn’t know this so I’m sure you can understand why we were a little cautious. 😅
Stunning video. Loved this 🙌
Thanks for sharing xx
Thanks for your kind words Squash and thank you for watching! 🙏😎
those were the harmless jellyfish. Just dive in with them
That’s where local knowledge comes in! 😉
