Some times a reaction is from the bone and not from the heart ore the mind and is completed with a lot of explanationmarks. Sometimes you find even 4 explanationmarks after 1 sentent

[@riveRecon]

The amount of work you are putting in is incredible! I really wish you all the best with this and a safe trip.

[@PostieAdventures]

Good luck Mike hope it all goes well. Love those new camera angles with the poles gives a great point of view to show us what you're doing. So good to get picked up by TV. Cheers, Brent

[@walternunez1756]

[@kabeersyed1]

This man's efforts and photography is so spectacular, that there should be at least 100 k views on every video of mike! Please tell your friends circle, share widely and broadcast on social media platforms of this amazing project of Mike.

[@OutbackMike]

Thanks!

[@michellelee7531]

Freakin amazing set up. Looks so good man. . Your prep has been phenomenal.

[@fonhollohan2908]

Its awesome what your doing just watched the build of the canoe and i'm impressed, I also watched the video what your planning to do. I love this canoe it seems to work pretty dern good. btw once the canoe is exposed to more water those seams should expand and close right up and you shouldn't have any leaks at all, if your lucky. I think I'll be binge watching your videos for the next little while. cheers.

[@OutbackMike]

Thanks!

[@GizmosBushEscapes]

wow mate. good stuff

[@OutbackMike]

Thanks !

[@shetijay]

[@badpete3497]

Thanks Mike im here on the coast of North Carolina isolating in my room with the dam covid. I miss being out on the water fishing. Your video made my day

[@OutbackMike]

Thanks Pete🙂

[@rogermace4516]

Great Vid and a awesome boat ... Keep Safe of your adventure

[@lauriechilds6819]

Keep up the great work Mike.......

[@anthonyjohnson100]

It’s hard to imagine those explorers back in the 1300’s and even earlier. Much earlier. They had no clue what was out there. They didn’t even know the earth was round 🤯 Brave AF

[@johnshite4656]

They did know the Earth was round. What they didn't know was that the Sun was at the center of the Solar System. The circumference of the Earth has been known since the time of the Ancient Greeks, ca. 600 BCE or earlier. The "Flat Earth" movement is a modern phenomenon, like eating bath salts.

[@velvetradio]

Inspirational. Love your ingenuity.

[@OutbackMike]

Thank you🙂

[@lucianocampos1711]

Awesome work Mike, Love the content and wishing you the best of luck on both the adventure and the film making. Can't wait to the film.

[@OutbackMike]

Thanks Luch🙂

[@Jerry-ds4ye]

Beautiful, fun and inspiring... Thank You... ❤❤❤

[@OutbackMike]

You are so welcome!

[@rubiconklbrutorowman7577]

I recommend super strong, very light weight plastic long length rope and metal anchor that U can tide to sizeable tree or rock on beach land, so that Ur boat will NOT be washed away, plus beside anchors on both sides of Ur little wonder boat anchors.

[@originalzo6091]

I'm in awe absolutely phenomenal

[@OutbackMike]

Thanks!

[@luisvelasquez60]

Recordé haber leido un libro de Thor Heyerdhal quien tambien fabricó una balsa de Junco o "totora" y madera, partió del puerto de Callao-Peru y logró llegar a las islas polinesias confirmando asi que los aborigenes de Perú si llegaron a estas islas. Felicitaciones por semejante aventura...!!! realmente lo disfruté.

[@OutbackMike]

Thank you. Yes I love Thors book too!

[@erroleabrown4317]

Owesome video I like that you are so informative about what your doing, I didn’t think at all that the boat would have water soak through, maybe you should put some tar over the outside and then some canvas and maybe do that twice so the tar isn’t a problem for you but also in bushcraft *two is one and one is none. The canvas shelter on the boat was also a good add, maybe you could tar those holes up too. Thanks for the video

[@FrejthKing]

Bro you are living my dream!

[@Castathon]

Great video mate!

[@ashwatthama438]

Love and support from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳❤️❤️

[@TonyKeyes]

Good one Mike. It's getting pretty real now! Cheers!

[@moonjelly9]

Your videos get more engaging all the time. Love the honesty. All the best for your epic trip Mike!

[@rubiconklbrutorowman7577]

Wow wow, very good equipped to survive, Ion Must should join you and SHOULD pay at least 300,000 dollars to experience NO money substitute adventure experience in the middle of water, what an adventure that land adventure cannot match due to deadly water, even though looks perfectly harmless!

[@thumpergman]

Thanks youtube for the suggestion this is awesome i will definitely share your channel mate

[@OutbackMike]

Thanks.🙂

[@anthony9thompson]

Great job

[@dammitau]

Great video! Wondering what anchor did you have that wasn’t performing? Your interview on the project is awesome, completely amazing you were able to get that exposure so fast, thanks for sharing the behind the scenes on the filming and setup, inspiring as always! Wish I could join you on your expedition!! Happy sailing :)

[@myparadiseonbantayanisland9030]

Do you have fishing gear?

[@OutbackMike]

Yes. And I fish a lot on the main expedition.

[@motog4-75]

Hay mate, where do you go to the toilet in that boat?

[@OutbackMike]

Off the side😂

[@ryannovel8892]

This guy deserve more subs!!!!!

[@Alf_The_Gr8]

Hi Mike, I’ve watched all the 7 videos in the playlist but cannot find the main video of this trip! Is it up yet? And if so where? Many thanks

[@OutbackMike]

I’m still working on it sorry. I wrote a book about the adventure first and went on a tv show which delayed things.

[@Robert-hp1wr]

Hello Outback Mike Genuinely excited for launch day, can't wait! Still waiting for my sailing orders..... Are you going to release video every now and then or one long movie at the end? very inspiring Robert

This is really kool

[@anthonyjohnson100]

You definitely need to fishing beer coozy thing

[@williamgrimberg2510]

You can’t own a beach there ? That’s a great idea. Makes for a nice buffer zone between man and nature.

[@bobbyalegria508]

Nice vesio i ever see nice camera nice wood boat canue.. I like vedio like this i like to make like this boat and a adventure

[@OutbackMike]

Thanks Bobby!

[@dalecarpenter8828]

the expert cooks over flame ( flime )instead coals ( ciles) ? what is a taught spot ?

[@watertrans8413]

Survival on the sea...why you dont make battere from water sea, make food and cook from solar sun, make a water fresh from that so?😀

[@robertrobert7924]

Mike, What species of fur bearing animal did you make your fur mantle out of ? I was going to make one out of American raccoon skins, but never got around to it. I did make a red fox fur hat that turned out well.

[@kiwiguy4706]

It's made from opossum, native to Australia & a protected species so I'm guessing he got the fur from NZ where they are a pest & are not protected

[@nftgamesesports]

hey mike i like your vlog keep it up hope you meet young bloods too

[@rubiconklbrutorowman7577]

Whoever U married Mike she, Ur wife as we can see U wear marriage ring in ur finger, SHOULD be very proud of U having hubby like you!

I’ve done it. I’m editing it now. You can read the book while you wait if you like😊 outbackmike.com/product/modern-day-castaway-book/

[@Aykosss]

This is awesome mate. Did you end up doing the trip? Cheers 👍

[@OutbackMike]

Thanks. Yes. I’m editing it now.

[@carcasscruncher9354]

So when is this expedition taking place?

[@OutbackMike]

It’s already happened. I’m editing the footage.

[@carcasscruncher9354]

@@OutbackMike awesome. Looks like a blast.

[@rubiconklbrutorowman7577]

Those people near U boat must have paid tens of thousands of dollars to get that commercial made boat and insurance on it which is another thousands of dollars plus and expensive boat fuel, etc. compared to Ur lovely boat N sweat boat U build with Ur self and no boat can even come close beating Ur boat building cost, which basically nothing!

[@kenShuttleworth]

Great videos Mike, any danger of crocs at camp?

[@OutbackMike]

Not that one but I the reef yes.

[@teeanahera8949]

He was a long way south (N.S.W.) where the water is too cold for crocs. The further north you go you get closer to the equator and of course the water gets warmer and that’s where the crocs are.

[@Gabz-gj1mn]

Is possum skin the warmest material or do you just hate possums?

[@OutbackMike]

The shipwreck survivor had a possum skin rug so I sewed one from NZ possum skins.

[@gazanikkirakosian7021]

[@tagaligtas5409]

Can I have your boat its awesome

[@rubiconklbrutorowman7577]

U should have treated bottom boat in and outside Ur boat with leak proof chemical *double, repeat, coatings, nothing wrong with being modern day enjoyment don't have to copy the guy's boat that was long time ago, and be piratical about it!
