As others have said, ignore the trolls. Your videos are filled with inspiration, adventure and calmness all at once at times. It’s nice that some positive videos get through the algorithm as they make a difference to people. Keep up the adventures

[@BUSHMANandBLUE]

😂 yes there’s a lot of doom and gloom out there. Thanks Ian.

[@iantucker1904]

Also, I am one of the ones you have massively helped over the last few years…. Thank you.

Ignore the internet trolls. Your content is excellent.

[@marclindsay6120]

You sir.. are a living legend! I watch your videos every night, old and new….. your videos help me sleep.

[@BUSHMANandBLUE]

😂😂😂 maybe not quite at that status

[@John50ward]

Yes they help me sleep because there so f-king boring. I’m rom Yorkshire so he will get the joke ps where’s blue😮

[@BUSHMANandBLUE]

@John50ward 😂😂😂 I talk myself to sleep

[@rossmunro9946]

I love the minimalist adventures you often treat the viewer to. It's amazing to sleep out in freezing temperatures on top of the snow and wake up warm and refreshed with less than 10 pounds of weight to carry in and out. This is a great testament to your skills and the quality of your kit. Keep on camping, and don't worry about negative comments-worry about your welfare if needed. A friend.

[@BUSHMANandBLUE]

It’s easy enough when it’s dry weather. Just a good sleep system and Mat 👌. Cheers Ross.

[@dazday40]

Positivity is waterproof, love that

[@PhilWaud]

That was brilliant Al, thank you. I really like the local camps you do. Your positivity is infectious!

[@StephenOverthrow]

Blimey, you're stampping down the snow to get flat ground for your sleeping pad, and I'm here fluffing up my duvet ready for bed! Can't beat getting into a cold bed in a cold room. Your room there, was a tad colder than mine! Well done Al. Cheers,Ozzy.

[@dulciemargaretcolton145]

Hi Al. We loved the walk up to where you camped. I loved growing up with my 2brothers in the 60's. Was slower and we played out till it was nearlly dark. Happy memories. We were very fit and healthy too. Good food and plenty of fun. 😊😊

[@ScottishSummiteer]

Absolutely love the videos mate. Been watching for a few years now and have always admired your positivity and dedication to spreading joy. All the best for 2025😊

[@jamieb741]

Nice, I remember bmx's, skateboard too. I had a rally grifter ! Jumping off kirbs , j hops , bunny hops. Now we have carbon fibre bikes ! And , the Internet ! I remember trying first cigarette.. yuk !!.. didn't last thankfully. I'm 53 now , I'll never grow up 😂 Great video.

[@AndyBasnett]

Keep doing what your doing pal You inspired me to try wild camping 18months ago and I have never looked back Thank you 👍🏻

[@charlenemalson8095]

Absolutely loved this video Al. When I post my wild camping pics in some groups,I also get some negativity from the odd person too. You just have to feel sorry for these types of people I think. I also just block nasty people. Jealousy is a horrible trait,isn't it. I bet that was amazing opening your eyes in the morning there 😍 fantastic video

[@BUSHMANandBLUE]

I’ve spent my life helping people and I’m all about giving hugs to the people that need it but as said nastiness or energy suckers I just don’t have time for. Thanks Charlie Lass 👊

[@maggi666]

Great video All. My hubby and i have very positive energy, too. I back off from negitive ppl. They suck your feelings dry. Wherever we go in the world, it's wiered how local ppl are drawn to us. They feel our happiness and positivity. 😊

[@BUSHMANandBLUE]

I agree with that. I always say ‘kind breeds kind’ it’s just making the effort to start the kind web. 👊

[@andrewstennett3186]

Nice one matey and very brave. I need a small shelter around me. I agree me,i am glad when i grew up, go out and play and xome back when you hungry or its dark. Times when you could leave the back door open and people could converse and have a good laugh. All the best fella, take care matey

[@INSOLESandLACES]

In date ration pack and hand warmers, what !!!!! 😂. Excellent video as always Al. Many thanks for mixing your content up and for taking us all along. ❤

Overflowing with boring chat 😂😂😂. Thank you for your kind words. 😊

[@paulfairclough9350]

Why anyone would leave negative comments is beyond me. You’re sharing positivity in great surroundings. Saying that, there’s no way you’d get me doing some of the camps you do but I really do enjoy watching. Looking forward to watching more 😊

[@BUSHMANandBLUE]

Thanks Paul. I only get a few which often are good entertainment 😂

[@beverlymcfarlane8681]

We need another winter one of you and Blue on Ben Nevis, Al. That one was epic!

[@iantucker1904]

Loved this! Can you post the lights you used around you please?

[@EeRocKK]

Allen, that’s my personal thesis in life: Only post positive things, and keep the criticism to myself. That strategy seems to feed my favourite KZbinrs, and keeps the quality videos a-flowing. So far, this strategy has worked for sure, (you legend). That is absolutely sound advice to be positive with comments

[@EeRocKK]

And yeah, m8. Your videos are summat I look forward to. You got the gift

[@BUSHMANandBLUE]

Yep! Positivity moves people forward. Thanks bud👊

[@delahunty982]

Crikey that takes me back we all had a Nova back in the day but can't say I have seen a single one for many years now

Enjoy. Definitely in my top 3 favourite places👌

[@paulgillan7622]

Another great vlog pal👍🏻

[@Globetrotter-1]

Hand warmers? 😆You're definitely turning into a wimp with old age mate! 😉 To be perfectly honest, this was one of my favourite videos of you going solo. The other most memorable was when you were together with Blue 💙, camping during a heavy snowstorm. What made this particular video so special, was that I could relate so much to it, due to doing similar solo winter camps without a tent, sleeping beneath a carpet of stars. The whole video had a calming affect, and the 'waffling' all had meaningful content. Cheers to happiness! 🍻

[@BUSHMANandBLUE]

😂 I’ll be taking an electric blanket next. Nights like this re definitely special 😬

[@Globetrotter-1]

@BUSHMANandBLUE Nooooo! Anything but the electric blanket! 🤣 Even Blue's jacket 🧥 makes me sweat just looking at it. 😅

[@johnpatterson5744]

Love the rock formations,where about was that.and where they the Columbia Omni heat boots,thought I recognised the tread 👍.✊🙏❤️👌😎

[@BUSHMANandBLUE]

Yep! I love them boots for in the snow👌

[@nigelclarkson998]

Great vid sir, I have some smaller hand warmers that are rechargeable which are awesome, especially to warm hands gently if they get cold, I would love to do what you do, but at 63 and not as agile as I was, but you bring me to nature … I do occasionally camp out fishing though and love it, use a snood to keep nose and face warm

[@BUSHMANandBLUE]

Good on you for still getting out though. Those nights fishing are exactly like this… nature and peace.

[@Michael-oy3pz]

Another great little adventure Mate and ignore the negativity and we have to get you down to Australia one of these days to experience the Australian bush first hand…..minus the bloody big crocs of course 😂🇦🇺

[@BUSHMANandBLUE]

I’ve watched Crocodile Dundee… I’ll be fine😂😂😂

Keep up the great vids man your a real inspiration 👍 Your right about nowdays generation aswell they are too busy not caring about our planet littering everywhere with no cares in the world this has to stop as it is ruining it for all other people that actually care !

Bloody hell ... Channel 5! Like you said, not everyone could have if, but if you could, TV engineers ('cos we all rented our TVs back in the day) had to visit and re-tune your TV if you wanted to watch it.

[@tristanpage6805]

I’ve got those hand warmers. They are great

[@runthomas]

to be honest ....im starting to think the yorkshire dales are the best place in england.... i live on the west pennine moors....and i love it, we have a variety of interesting places to go hiking ....but generally its wet marshland, at least for some of your hikes..and there is winterhill but nothing bigger than than..so you get a lot of exposure to elements and very interesting environment and countryside and plenty of sheep knocking about...but nothing drastic. the lake district seems so much better, but with the lakes, we are talking very open spaces, and huge mountains..which in their own right are spectacular ...but long winded to hike around.. but the yorkshire dales....seems so perfect....not as cold as scotland, massive amounts of forrest and good hard ground, plenty of little hills, and ability to get lost in them, smaller bodies of water and streams ....its just so fantastic and interesting every cuple of kilometres....its perfect for a hiker like myself. who is generally coverd in wet marshy mud....its now getting a bit long.

[@BUSHMANandBLUE]

Yes I don’t disagree. The Peak District I generally avoid as it’s just one massive peat bog but I do love the lakes👌

Is that quilt waterproof

[@BUSHMANandBLUE]

No because of all the stick lines but the fabric is water resistant so helps/slows moisture intake. 👊

[@BENTWOONEZERO]

I have been watching your content for a long time and do watch most of your new uploads I am getting a sense of de ja vue more and more. I would suggest a slightly different approach possible with more of a travelers tale. A few You tubers recently have done long distance paths ( Black crag for one ) which adds a different bent on a hiking / camping video. I suggest the West highland way, Dales way or the Cleveland way.

[@BUSHMANandBLUE]

Yeah I’m not bothered about doing those really. My Tour du Mont Blanc video is my best edited by far but received minimal views. Great trek though. Next weeks video is absolutely awesome trekking through the alps👌👌👌

[@BENTWOONEZERO]

Whether you were comfortable or not, you definitely lose a large amount of heat sleeping without anything above or around you, such as a tarp, bivy bag, or tent. Viewers who have not spent time sleeping in the wild in a variety of weather as should be aware of this.
