GameyBuilds He indeed is.

[@amnesix300]

He finished his walk last year!

[@302yt]

Watching your videos.... I feel I have not lived my life...

[@nathaniellavender9388]

302yt watching his videos I feel I need to do something with my life

[@jhamail]

even now?

[@JamesOHanlon1]

you're an incredible film maker, my friend

[@traydollaz5671]

James O'Hanlon His is an incredible human being!!!

[@SolarHeavy]

Such a connection with the world and nature, love it

[@ecod7r]

this is exactly what everyone wants to do, but money and family responsibilities blocking us from achieving this. if you born into rich family then this is possible.

[@breadclimp6261]

Ecoder EliteCoder If you think only rich people can travel I feel sorry for you. The world is not a commodity to be bought, you just have to have the guts to get out there and experience it.

[@wingwaabuddha]

Ecoder EliteCoder Here's the thing...thats a bunch of nonsense... I've been to China 6 times, from cutting grass and working minimum wage jobs. People like you sit on excuses your whole life, and for that I pity you.

[@SolarHeavy]

If you really want to be somewhere, you'll find a way there with or without money :)

[@HehehexDD]

Ecoder EliteCoder Really? I doubt he spent much in terms of money due to the fact that it isnt even expensive at all especially since hes walking 99% of the time. But i do agree with the family responsibilities part.

[@Mackwiss]

Hey Chris, rewatching this yet another time. Can't believe you're in Germany now. Lot's of love from Portugal my dear virtueller Freund

[@ChristophRehage]

yo, i am honored to have you as a virtual buddy!

[@PhotoshopTrainingChannel]

Beautiful video, Christoph! Thanks for sharing it!

[@xsounds5599]

❤️

[@louiswkq19]

Tears..... what gorgeous scenes.... How many people could have the courage like him to pursue the true and bare dream unconditionally ?? And what is our true Love?? When can we put aside other 's view and our social status and pursue our dream.....

[@kattirot9940]

I've just seen that video and I understood that I want my life to be like yours. It's perfect, but it has so many difficults... You're worthy of respect

[@danthor45]

want to watch this all day. need more. what a free feeling you must have

[@flash853]

You edited your videos excellently. Great job for both walking and photography. Well done. Thanks.

[@ChristophRehage]

thank you!

[@billrjones1318]

I often have dreams of long walks or bike rides. By accident or fate I found this channel. Haha. It is so late now and I need to work in the morning but I try t find the first video . However no luck.

[@shafiullm]

Normally, I don't comment on videos, but I must admit that your videos are amazing and deserves more attention

[@ianrimma]

hi. I met you sheltering from the rain in Azabyjan 2018 and later I cycled through all Xinjiang in winter and it left me with the best memories and some incredible experiences with people. happy to have met you briefly.

[@ChristophRehage]

hey ian, i remember, that was some heavy rain that day! glad you had fun!

[@randomnumbers84269]

You inspire me more than anyone. Time to get out there...

[@Kristhor]

I read this selfhelp book and the tip it gave to me is that when you really want to do something that seems out of reach, mark a date. doesn't matter when that date is, just be realistic and be ready to work hard for it. And last year I made my first, but short backpacking trip which lasted 5 weeks, but it won't be my last.

[@Zornja1989]

Was für tolle Bilder. Das kullern einem echt die Tränen in die Augen. Wirklich wunderschön! Danke dafür :)

[@Shobhitgupta24]

I found your second video now my search is over. Appreciated.

[@margob99]

I love the fact that by doing it this way, you get to spend a loooooong time with every view; really getting to know the scenery, really IN it. Nice!

[@miffyi5220]

这个视频做的真好，温暖的心灵，坚定的步伐，美丽的记忆

[@nLBrawler]

Dude.. You are my idol! This is incredible! I've been fantasising on doing something like this for years, but to see that's it's very possible.. Twice! Your an inspiration!

[@Aagotsgrandaughter]

Beautiful video. Amazing journey you undertook. Watching the video reminded me of teaching in China with my husband in1981 thru 1983 and traveling by one way or another through Xingjiang one summer. I am amazed at the infrastructure improvements that I see in your video and photos. China has changed so, so much and so quickly (30+ years is quickly, believe me)!

[@bantugal3284]

No entiendo porque tenia ganas de llorar mientras veía este video, supongo que es porque me alegro de ver que otros consiguen cumplir mis sueños .Muy inspirador Christoph Rehage.

[@peihuicao744]

老雷, 已经不记得多少年前看过你的1.0版徒步了, 印象深刻, 一直记忆犹新. 很高兴看到你的2.0版. keep going. 你自称自干五, 我想你是真的很爱中国.

[@Buttontheplay]

I love your videos man! Much respect and commemoration for all that you have done :)

[@dorman143]

You really know how to make a good video. Two thumbs up, Chris.

[@stin_ca]

Simply a walk in the park if you ask me... and a desert and various towns and mountains and through life this is definitely on my bucket list now.

[@KnightsofEmerald]

Strange how I rewatched your first video last night, and you post a new one today...

[@HikariSaitou]

Amazing video. I really hope to do something similar soon. The preperations have already been made, I'm currently just waiting for the right time to start on my journey. Much respect, man.

[@Shallodoo]

China is so beautiful, a five thousand years of ancient documents .Wellcome to China

[@Shallodoo]

^_^

[@beatrix1120]

This looks like an awesome experience. If it were me I'd have bicycle.

[@dylangianino7616]

I like your profile pic

[@pusillirex]

Dylan Gianino I DON'T LIKE YOURS.WHEN I SEE YOUR PROFIL PIC, THIS IS BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE INTERNET CONNEXION.

[@007999999999999999]

I'm speech less, can't believe what you have accomplished!

[@DesmondLax]

Merci milles fois! Ton premier vidéo continue de m'inspirer malgré le temps. Celui-ci ne prendra pas la relève, mais me touche également car il dégage l'atteinte d'une maturité. Thanks again!

[@hnieberg]

I absolutely love all your videos! Part of the full experience you make is the friendly editing. What software do you use?

[@mohamedanouar9363]

Am surprised that this channel has only 97k ??? You are amazing man ... i really wish to do this one day keep going

[@lujiang9650]

like your video.like your spirit, reminds me how many ways i ve been walked through and that feeling. like the song, how many roads must a man walk down, until your call him a man.

[@chela008]

Amazing... thanks for sharing this... No hay casualidades, vi esto cuando lo tenía que ver...

[@tylerburgundy7110]

Loved your first video (beard-stuff). But this is fantastic, right music for the right scenery. If you ever write a book about your adventure, I'll surely buy. Thanks Christoph

[@superpanicked7995]

What will he expore next? find out next time on dragon ball z!!!!

[@KeyrowZB]

walk and swim from united states to europe

[@nebbycute]

LOL

[@nebbycute]

He would reach Portugal it's where I live!

[@solarisalpha1]

Nice, thanks for sharing your journey and adventure. Do you have any plans on making a longer doc. more in detail of some of the places and people you encountered? Would love to see it.

[@NetworkEscape]

I wish I could go with you man, but unfortunelly I don't have money for such long travel... meaby someday. Good work. It's nice to see people making their dreams come true.

[@Lurkur]

I remember watching your video few years ago, it really changed my life! thank you so much for sharing it!

[@Commandelicious]

This is art.

[@amandeis]

Hallo Christoph Deine Fußreise in China fasziniert mich umso mehr da ich auch seit 2003 individuelle Fußreisen in Deutschland mit dem Ziel "nach Hause" mache. Witzig ist daß ich mir dazu auch so einen Wagen gebaut habe, ohne von deiner Konstruktion gewußt zu haben. Freue mich schon auf deine Fortsetzungen. P.S. Deine Videos sind absolute Spitzenklasse.

[@stoffer717]

The world is a beautiful place.. Thanks for sharing some of it :)

[@Cyminder]

Super Video! Überragend! Ich habe letztes Jahr dein Buch gelesen und das hat mich wirklich inspiriert und es ist grandios!!! Mach weiter so, bin schon auf deine weiteren Projekte gespannt! Greetz André

[@junwandumont]

C’est tellement émouvant de voir ça. Je suis vraiment touchée par votre courage.

[@XtarShoter]

Amazing, I hope I find that special place. This video makes me feel like getting the fuck out of this house and go exploring.

[@nashorie]

LoL ikr

[@AugustKarmawillhaveitsretribut]

XtarShoter That's what happening. This June I'm finally doing it. Walking from Grand Prairie, TX to Seattle, WA.

[@fortis86]

Thy Kingdom Come you doing it rn?

[@fotismnts654]

[@ronaldofrog7827]

Extremely, serious, serious talent in awe...

[@TheOfficialDjTetris]

Amazing video! You, sir, are a true source of inspiration!

[@corbinez]

Respect to you Christoph - Thanks for sharing -i'm enjoying the timelapse you post up as well. Corbs:-)

[@zhevtone]

Amazing and inspiring video, I wish you continue walking!

[@Frances530]

i love the last sentence, The road is at your feet, and the world is yours.

[@BulLiT2401]

this is so, so good! seriously! close to man tears

[@lordweibull1792]

What did you eat all the way? There are so many miles without a store :D You are my Idol!!

[@pauldavies9360]

I'm just waiting to have a big argument with the wife so I can go do this!

[@yihao403]

damn😂

[@Amthelia]

funny... I'm waiting to have a big (bigger than now) argumentwith my husband to book my ticket... let's leave together😂!

[@michalullemann1938]

Paul Davies if you dont have kids yet, just take your wife and go for it together!

[@user-qw2dy8x780]

walk is not good,better use bike

[@khuramkhan3966]

How did it go?

[@KnightsofEmerald]

I'm so excited to see a 2.0 thank you!

[@attila210]

Wow :) You certainly gathered more than enough beautiful memories for multiple lifetimes! :) Great ! ^^

[@alice10888]

That's a very beautiful video....nice work on the time lapse! Did you feel differently about walking this time than 2007?

[@thesilentway371]

Goosebumps alle the way. Awesome bro

[@puppetsock]

Well done. So cool. I want a DVD. Please? I want the book but it seems not to be available in English, only German and Chinese. Is there English? I also want to do this walk but I think I am way too old and fat.

[@jana226]

Touching. this world is so beautiful

[@dikofadilat8416]

I just wandering with one question. How you get money for this trip?

[@OutbackAl]

Great Vid Man...I teared up. Don't know why....perhaps it was the music....perhaps it was just your awesomeness-ness.

[@RahulReW]

Xinjiang is indeed spl...I will nvr forget the 1 month i spend there on the road last year...

[@wingwaabuddha]

Unbelievable, amazing as always. The more videos you make the better. Shot like National Geographic. Just amazing, hoping for your book to come out in English soon, my Chinese is probably not good enough to understand it.

[@doggrail]

Beautiful time lapses. Did you bring solar panels with you? Or did you often need to find electrical sockets for your camera equipment?

[@Armidillodude]

This is so cool, how does one have the time and money to do it though?

[@zawzero]

What kind of stupid question is this?

[@LucasMurtada]

zawzero Stupidity is thinking that a simple question like this one, is stupid. It's a simple, and naive question.

[@BassMaxOfficial]

zawzero For some people this may seem surreal... People arent used to not doing what everybody else does.

[@kenner116]

Most of us have at least a few years of life left, so that's plenty of time. Walking through China can't be very expensive. Maybe 4 or 5 USD per night for lodging if you stay at a guesthouse. Food and water is around 6 USD per day. I'd like to visit Xinjiang someday, the furthest west I've been in China is Qinghai Lake, and I bumped into a couple of people biking across Asia in Xining. I don't have the patience for walking that far though. After 10 kilometers or so of walking out of town I just hitchhike or catch a bus!

[@mr_metal.]

what we, the majority only wish and dream about, you're living that. I'm so jealous of you, because you have the bravery to start an adventure like this. I'm so glad for you, very nice vids, carry on brother, you've done it really well

[@JacobJakub]

Great work, such a beautiful video !

[@paulusmagnum1]

Really amazing! Thanks for sharing your beautiful journeys!

[@binliu8072]

朋友我是新疆乌鲁木齐的，看到你的作品我真的很震撼，你非常的优秀，就在现在这种徒步方式也很流行，希望你有机会能再来一次新疆。

[@wenlucas5582]

really cool, like the way you did, come on , you should visit the south.

[@RitterTree]

Man... I just love your videos. :)

[@geraldoderibeirao2347]

was it dangerous? how did you get the money?

[@charlielee628]

nice,xinjiang,welcome come back again at a future time

[@ariebakhuizen5486]

This is soo amazing....... you are a wonderfull man

[@zerotonine807]

Amazing footage....inspiring

[@kaarmy92]

Ich brauch dein Video nur zu gucken und mir kommen die Tränen.. Ich bin auf der Suche nach mir selbst und irgendwo wird es auch für mich einen Platz geben der auf mich wartet... Ich würde mich freuen wenn ich dir Fragen stellen könnte als Wegweiser für meine eigene Reise...

[@davidyuan5665]

i like you because you are so special ,so good ,and love you put the taiwan island in the China's map.

[@yourforebear4418]

一个人旅行会面对很多未知，你真勇敢🌹

[@martinpaz2262]

Fantastic!!! Thanks for shared!!

[@kenoalbatros]

Wow that's amazing! How do you plan your walks? It sounds interesting

[@cr7ck5]

Does anyone know what type of lens would have been used at 1:31 im not after specific brand, just the style (wideangle etc.)

[@fachrifaisalrachman2638]

its using gopro lots fits for adventurer like that

[@mikenat187]

i enjoyed your last 2 videos so much you have no idea, i make time lapses too and these are just fantastic. really really nicely done, great job!!!!!!!!. Your photography and ability to put it together the way you do. wow

[@SK-vd2bb]

This video is endlessly inspiring. 老雷牛逼，老雷加油。

[@epidrom]

How old where u when u started this amaizing trip?

[@chadgravenites9377]

Hey Christoph! Just curious but what cameras do you use?

[@pierphurba3928]

Fantastico!! I Really would like to see 3.0

[@ezhaoyu]

读完了书再看这个片子，又被感动一次。很喜欢书的结尾。哥们儿，牛B！

[@dominicmcg2368]

This looks amazing, lots of questions... How did you keep all of your gear charged? How dangerous was the walk? How did you keep track of where you were and where you were going (AKA not get lost)? What contingency plans did you have for if you became ill or were injured? What languages did you learn for/during the trip and did you know Mandarin/Cantonese before you started the first walk? How much did it cost overall for the whole walk? How did you select your route? etc...
