    I am one of those old guys vicariously travelling through your channel. I have also been one of those old guys with a dim view of the poorly motivated entitled young people. You guys have been an inspiration and opened my heart to all the WONDERFUL young people out there, even though I am surrounded sed by fine young men and women struggling to find their places in this chaotic and changing world. I am so indebted you you guys, you will never know. THANK YOU from my heart to yours.

We are so glad you didn't let this terrible incident break your spirit, there are a lot more good people than bad. So nice to see your faces smiling, and as always - much love 💕

  • @carlredmond3642
    @carlredmond3642 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Great adventure you're having. Great to be able to share in it via your videos. One observation for your consideration: when you are driving over a really sketchy bridge, such as the long one at the end, in my opinion, you should really be driving much slower than you were in the video clips shown. The faster you drive, the greater the dynamic impact loading to the structure, and in the case here where the "structure" supporting your trucks weight is transverse timbers of unknown condition....potentially weak and or rotten in places, by driving faster you increase the risk of a structural collapse which could have dire consequences. If you drive really slow and less bouncy, while it might not be as cinematic for the drone, you significantly increase your chances of getting across alive. If you meet any bridge enginers on your travels ask them for an opinion on this and I'll bet they agree.

    • @awkragt
      @awkragt ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Mostly agree, but locals take the opposite approach and drive super fast. It kinda makes sense as these bridges are former train bridges so the issue is the deck, not the overall structure. Driving faster allows your vehicle to treat a hole in the deck as a pothole, the suspension starts to flex and redistribute weight, then bam you're past the hole, versus if you're super slow you fall in. I watched Hilux taxis basically fly across a sketchy bridge in Peru with that strategy, we drove around the bridge cause I'm a civil engineer and we're not taking chances lol.

    Hi Guys! What a great video 🙌 The further you get, is the more amazed I am by the truck that we worked on briefly together, and you two in general. What a cool vision and actualization story, and what a cool truck! My general rule of thumb is to not be the only one on the street, in most urban places especially after dark. I found myself on a dark street in El Salvador once, with the locals barred inside their houses peering out at me with concern. Brought back memories of bad past experiences growing up in Trinidad.

      The hair scares off most 😂 we’re happy to be back in the truck, for sure.
      Matthew’s z minor could use some work, but I’m sure by Ecuador he’ll have it nailed. And yes, that was the route ExO did!

    Wow amazing as always! Glad you guys are ok and made it on to your next leg of the adventure. Did you stay in Panama or Colombia while your truck was making it's way through the gap? Or did you travel on the ship with it?

    Every adventue is filled with the unexpected and I am amazed with each video. Columbia was much different that what I expected (well, not the knife-wielding madman) and you guys find the most amazing places. In America, we live a life of such abundance, so those bridges look very sketch, but in reality they used the materials that they had acces too in order to get the job done. I guess, in reality, people like that are the original recyclers. Glad you guys are safe.

    • @ToyotaWorldRunners
      @ToyotaWorldRunners  ปีที่แล้ว

      Absolutely. We look at these bridges and roads as “in bad shape” but then see people driving them daily as their commute. This is their life, and we are lucky to experience it.

    Bear spray and a small pocket size can of pepper spray can work wonders. Strange that in Canada, the huge can of bear spray is okay to cross their border with but not the small can off pepper spray and it's the same stuff.

    Very Nice, please explain the panama to Colombia shipping experience , procedures , cost & duration.
    Please explain details of the crossover, useful for future travellers by road to SA.
    Thx

      We go into details like that on our Patreon. It’s not in our style of filmmaking to include every little detail of shipping processes.
      Thanks for watching!

    25:19 Can someone know about the buffaloes? They seem tamed as they have a nose ring. Can't find anything about these buffaloes. Are these used for milking or for meat only?

    I am sorry yall had that experience. I had a similar one on my first trip to Colombia. It is good to see yall are ok. My wife and I built a home in Las Lajas, El Santuario. El Santuario is a little town South East of Medellin in Antioquia. I believe you'll have to pass right through it, if you are going from Medellin to Bogota. We are currently in the US and not in Colombia, but if yall would like a place to camp for the night or even catch a hot shower, yall are are welcome to go check out our little place. I hope yall stay safe and thank you for the videos.

      Seems like it happens everywhere. We’re choosing not to dwell on it!
      That’s very kind! I’m assuming we will be heading that way. Please feel free to message us on instagram. 🙏🏼

    After the introduction my first thought is "please tell me you didn't do this trip unarmed"? I guess I'll find out when I get to the attempted robbery.
