Jason's quest for the truth, and Matt Damon, brings him to Iceland where he no doubt manages to offend the entire country.

A one hour Iceland extravaganza I am so pumped

[@pilsplease7561]

You are always pumped. lol

[@Skaterlunatic]

I have always wanted to go to iceland, maybe live there, you make me want it even more after this

[@eileenchang4074]

"On the flight, I couldn't decide if I wanted to sleep or stay awake, so I took some sleeping pills and chugged a 5 hour energy and just let them battle it out in my system"

[@jaredashy]

Greatest moment of commentary of the entire hour

[@VedantaDhobley]

American looks at waterfalls and struggles with names for 1 hour.

[@soarfm]

Really enjoyed, brings back memories of my Iceland trip. So, imagine you’re driving the Ring road in one of those RV’s. Remember how narrow the roads were, mostly without a shoulder and you’re thinking, man,if I go off the road its going to be quite the ride.... Driving down the road at about 80 km/h and BOOM! Crap, I got a flat..? And just so happen to be coasting up to a pull off. Good. Get out and take a look. I’m missing a WHEEL! Gulp. That was a closer call than I thought. Call the RV place and they dispatch a mechanic and we get to meet the only man in Iceland that doesn’t speak english. Cobbles together a repair (we found the wheel in a field behind us) but we spend the night in a hotel parking lot waiting for the new RV to be brought to us. Have the best meal ever in the attached restaurant. Had smoked salmon starter that the owner smoked in the yard behind his house and the most ridiculously good hamburger I can remember. Carry on.

[@Sc3ptor]

Can we all appreciate how with each photo he includes the background scenery noise? It makes the presentation 10000% awesome

[@danieldijo]

likewise in my vids, check them out

[@coreywolfenbarger8992]

An hour video - daring to go where no man in the incredibly niche film community on KZbin has dared to go before. Legend.

[@tomjanowski8584]

The bird sculpture is part of Todd McGrain's Lost Bird Project. He placed a bird sculpture in my hometown of Elmira NY. The placement of his sculptures mark the last know place the particular bird had been sighted before it's extinction.

[@Daniel.Anugerah]

Holy shit this feature length documentary is the perfect way to spend my Saturday morning. Also despite your sins on digital, you shot on the sacred Contax T2. Your sins are forgiven.

[@grainydaysss]

hahaha

[@flockschoep]

Love that you use different shutter sounds for your digital and film shots. Little details on top of your great humor and personality make this channel one of my favorites 🤙

[@DMS3TV]

I'm 13 minutes in and just realized this is an hour long. This is amazing. Actually amazing.

[@vitohogantara221]

Me too, man

[@djaktube]

we're so used to see those 10-15min short, condensed youtube videos that when we see an hour long film like this we get all HYPED.

[@nathandesmarais4427]

Douglas what are you doing here hahaha

[@ramoftherose]

One of the rare times I'm not complaining that a video is one hour.

[@fabiodoublebroad5389]

Perfect to watch on a 405 commute

[@olsonbryce777]

@@fabiodoublebroad5389 especially when you're the driver

[@mikefreelandphoto]

“We had truly unlocked a real life side quest.”😂 These side quests are truly one of the most memorable aspects of travel.🤘

[@mattlewismedia]

How did I get here when the video had no views. Edit: just finished watching the video and this has to be one of the best videos I’ve ever watched

[@obscura6205]

I think I finally understood why your channel is so attractive besides your rugged good looks and quality photos. You are very original with your content and who you are. Your'e just deciding to take us on a ride with the unique places you stumble upon. No special guest needed, just a cool guy with a camera. Don't lose that uniqueness!

[@Acvodaddy]

The fact you used two different shutter/advance sounds for the film photos and DSLR photos is so pleasing

[@chipesque]

“It should be called the Land of sheep, they’re everywhere” *montage of non sheep pics* 😂

[@AManWhoWasntThere]

Also I think that title is already claimed by New Zealand 😃

[@andreapalsdottir6122]

Helping with my extreme homesickness as an Icelander living abroad. Cant believe I lived there for 20 years and never tried that smoothie...

"GET GEORGE FROM NEGATIVE FEEDBACK TO NOTICE ME" 😂

[@GalaxyRegalia]

I've watched this 3 times now, you have successfully taken up 3 hours of my life and I've enjoyed every second.

[@ivahd185]

I come here to admire how good this dude is at photography and how i know nothing about using film cameras...

[@geekylucas]

The drop bears in Australia will totally mess you up. That Aussie bar tender has legit bear phobia. Amazing video. Love the long format.

[@winstonpx]

What. A. Video. Not a single second that wasn't funny, inspiring, or just straight up chill. The 51 people who disliked the video probably thought it was too short! Keep it up, we love these series!

[@amauzoho2156]

Wait... one hour... yeah let’s get some popcorn ready.

[@LukeKockler]

Amazing video! Loved the composition of all the shots, definitely inspires me to focus on composition more when I shoot. Keep doing what you're doing!

[@hlynur461]

My grandfather owns with his brothers the land that the super blue waterfall is on (and the waterfall) and your videos make me miss them a lot. As this waterfall has gained a lot of attention in the last few years I get a very strange feeling watching all these KZbinrs walking in "my" backyard. Anyway, love your videos as always man

[@8amfilms]

I've been waiting for this post! Thank you and please keep posting.

[@hb6846]

This has to now be one of my favourite phtography videos on youtube. A blissful hour of a stunning place, your amazing photography and as always hilarious outlook on it all. Thanks Jason !

[@raksh9]

This is one of the best youtube travel photography videos I've seen, and i watch a LOT of these channels. The vibe is relaxed, you humor is on point, and the mix of video and stills is excellent.

[@prathmeshtiwari4570]

I'm so glad I found your channel man. I didn't know film could be so beautiful, so serene. Love this.

[@Exo_Scout]

Your totally deadpan delivery of every single line is sending me right now, 4 minutes in and I'm subbed. Bless your soul

[@xTheMoegamer]

Thank you for this long-ass video. I visited Iceland just some weeks ago and it was really nice to see it again. Took me back to my holidays really fast!

[@connorgeorge4114]

First time getting a Saturday off work in weeks, I was meant to have a productive morning but you dropped an hour long gem!

[@speydan7119]

Been to Iceland several times; Fall, Winter, and Summer. You've captured it nicely. Really enjoyed it. Thanks!

[@SpiritBr34k3r]

dude, amazing work! I have watched the whole thing, mad respect for the effort it took to make this. Also, so many great photos!

[@sjmheron]

I love the colours in your imagery. I know you're film focused and I won't ask for presets or anything, but I wanted to say thank you for inspiring a new take on some of my photography. Also, your humour (two Canadian identifiers in one comment) is spot on.

[@thomasgunn4146]

Amazing. Love that this is an hour long. My man, glad you had fun dude.

[@michaelierulli2227]

They should have a tourist ad that says, "ICELAND - the setting for most contemporary Sci-Fi films" or "The land of waterfalls and 2.25% beer."

[@seaberry6]

I love your post processing on your photos...as well as the comparison of film vs digital. One of the best videos on Iceland travels out there! I went last January. Must go now in September!

[@MeganMarieT]

I love the sound design you used! Great little details! This is getting me so excited for my trip in July!

[@GuitarMan0704]

Thanks for changing the shutter sounds. Really helped in knowing what's analog and what's digital

[@francodisalvo9637]

"Get George from Negative Feedback to notice me" - This needs to happen. I feel like you might cause his left eye to twitch or something like that.

[@leadelacruz3738]

The best laid-back Iceland travel vlog I have ever watched!!!! Makes me wanna teleport to Iceland right now!

[@kayleighyoung8650]

I love this video! I’ve been to iceland twice now and seeing these photos just makes me emotional because I miss it so much 😩

[@chrismellencamp4756]

Was just there in July... out of all the vlogs I've seen of Iceland, you captured the most realistic picture. It's the closest of how it truly is there, but with a twist of nostalgia. Really enjoyed watching you video.

[@romanvalenzuela6514]

The digital shots are downright gorgeous!! Lee filter FTW! Probably my new favorite video

[@Nubrigtube]

One of those occasions where I feel jealous as well as overjoyed watching watching 3 weeks spent in that place crammed in a one-hour video. Really great work, thanks for taking the time sharing your trip and meticulously crafting this video.

[@waratkasitanon5323]

I love it man, keep up things like this, makes me want to travel and keep shooting film.

[@theundefinedphotographer]

Never a dull moment in your videos. Dark humor and a travel vlog all rolled into one? Yes, please. Also, loved how you did the ring twice. As someone who's never been to Iceland, it really helped perspectivize your itinerary and commit those places to memory as a viewer.

[@AeromaticXD]

some amazing photos, and great humour, as always

[@ChrisEdgecombePhoto]

Absolutely epic trip and photos, thanks.

[@alexcss423]

That video is just what I needed - Tickets booked can't leave it on the bucket list after that, thanks Jason!

[@photofools307]

I come back to this often. A really incredible video.

[@Powerwashincrocs]

Your deadpan humor slays and your photos are dope. I’m a fan

[@scottejohnson83]

Hot damn! We must have just missed each other. I was there 9/12-9/17. Your film shots are making me even more anxious to get my scans back! Nice work as always man. 🤙🏻

[@Louis5531]

Your videos are so peaceful and enjoyable to watch. Thank you for making this wonderful content.

[@JeffWalshPhotography]

I just found this channel and I love it. It's like watching Kipp from Napoleon Dynamite give commentary on a photography trip.

[@timiyaac]

First video of yours I’ve watched is this one hour one and I very much enjoyed it, thank you omg

[@yixinsun7986]

Wow~ Love the style of the video. It makes me wanna go to Iceland. You are such a good storyteller!

[@ju9ernaut573]

Wish I was into film when I went to Iceland. It's such an otherworldly place that just begs to be photographed. Great video 👍 This video brings me right back to my trip. Thankyou!!

[@dumkopf]

Epic film and shots, Jason. Bravo!

[@runninblue9415]

A superb piece of work, really liked the film shots. Up there with the Everest trip

[@photographybychristinamariecpp]

I LOVE this video! I have been shooting for 40 years and it is about the talent, the way the photographer see the world NOT to camera. You work is absolutely FIRE!

[@aquajetz1]

I always wanted more of ur videos, but I didn't expect it to be an hour long. Wait I'll bring my coffee mug nd get blessings from the film camera gods and continue watching.

[@donaldsmith6514]

wow such an amazing travel video...Amazing photos and a bit of humor included simply awesome

[@lukaszbrozek]

Great video man. Didn't expect one hour long video, but it was awesome.

[@yesterdaysjam5467]

love the pace of your clip, keep it going mate, respect and love from Canton China.

[@JenniferKaileyNelson]

First I was like, THIS IS AN HOUR? Then it ended and I was like, THIS IS ONLY AN HOUR? Just got back from the 4th trip and already feeling the pain.

[@jfkulius]

I never thought I'd watch a one hour video from start to finish but I didn't even notice how the time passed. Please keep making amazing content like this, the pictures are gorgeous.

[@lukeisafinename]

I did it. I've finally trudged through every video on your channel. Fantastic work all around. Keep it up!

[@schalke04chester]

The opening scene of "Prometheus" was actually shot at "steroid falls " too!

[@AwesomeCameras]

Finally had some time to sit down and watch this one!! loved it!!

[@flipflopsLF]

The best photographers video on Iceland, the overrun paradise as your Contax images tell/show a different/better story. Thank you for investing your time for us. Stuart

[@havoc025]

Your soo painfully awkward, love it! great video man. I cant wait to go to Iceland next year

[@mp3remix171]

Made my friday night! Ty, keep it up!

[@johncroyfindlay]

Superb. Love the commentary. Love the style. Pleasure to watch, sir. I thank you. :-)

[@brendanwho]

just wanted to say I really appreciate the effort you put into making this.

[@VividIceland]

Just started filming here in Iceland few months ago and there are so many amazing locations. And the coolest part is that they look so different each season!

[@HeyMelani]

I'm in love with this video!! I just watched it all and hi...I'm a new fan of you! Much love from Italy 😍

[@glass_lads6801]

Dude! I've been watching your videos the last few days! Awesome stuff man! Iceland has always been on my list! Some foggy diffused photos shot on cinestill could be dope too!

[@Mrshr3dalot]

I've watched this twice today. Loved this.

[@lsergiuu]

Fantastic vid man! And the difference between the sony shutter firing and the contax firing is subtle but sublime.

[@Mattwolek]

The master of amazing comical miss pronunciation and beautifully done travel photos!

[@TeriHofford]

Your videos are always top notch, but this is one of my faves! Definitely convinced me to go back to Iceland :D

[@petehenley01]

I bloody love your deadpan delivery with an excellent sense of humour - your gritty photos are half bad either

[@briansavage932]

I haven't even seen your work yet, but I subscribed immediately because I think you're my spirit animal.

[@greenpenguin8699]

Some stunning shots

[@CJAVALO]

i really watched this whole thing!! Iceland just moved its way up into my top 5 must go to places

[@moritzmoritz3979]

Beautyful! One of the best Phototgraphy chanels there is!

[@manalchoudhry1380]

I just found yr channel and WOW- this was the most perfect way to brighten up a shitty week. thank you.

[@MrFirstdance2000]

It's June in Tennessee and I'm looking for ice and cloudy skies to shoot, ha! Thanks for stoking the internal flames of my photo passion furnace! Great little docu-journey!

[@BryanBirks]

An hour? I’m gonna have to circle back to this in a bit. 🤙🏻

[@PoisionedCookie]

[@spennyblair]

The best and most comprehensive Iceland video on KZbin! Well done man!

[@secsibiscuit]

One hour of awesomeness!!

[@JulianGoodship]

KZbin algorithmed me this video this week and I watched the whole GD thing. Loved it. Binged a load of others, too

[@zayton332]

Can’t believe that I watched the whole video ,and I didn’t fall asleep ! love your share! funny thing is the subtitles recognized the rain as applause.

[@AdamOnAnalogue]

All kinds of awesome - epic video dude. Now if I can only get a smoothy.

[@vividheart2113]

Can we all take time to appreciate the attention to detail for the shutter sound of each pic, how he differentiates the digital shutter sound from the film shutter sound! Great video man, I enjoyed every second!

[@sircarpington]

i went to some of the same spots and it really just hit the feels so hard... i love this place. love the vid as well.

[@SuperLegolover23]

Thought my phone had glitched when it said an hour. It hadn't, and I felt blessed. Glad to see overall you had fun 💕

[@Cjfilmandphoto]

Genuinely one of my favourite videos I’ve watched it about 3 times now
