Hey Tim - The Story of my Life.

"Don't ask what the world needs, ask what makes you come alive. Because what the world needs most, is more people who come alive." - Howard Thurman
6 months ago I began this project, and since then it has consumed every part of my being. The day I would click upload seemed like it was a million miles away. It feels weird knowing that it's over. Never in my life have i put this much of myself into one project, but this one was special and I knew i had to give it my all. Collectively I've put well over 500 hours of focused editing into this video. I spent 3 weeks on a flipped sleep schedule where I would wake up after sunset and work throughout the night in complete isolation and go to sleep as the sun would rise. I made a lot of sacrifices to make this happen. If you guys want to support me and continue seeing more passion driven work please share and make sure to follow me on all my social channels!
Follow the journey!

Animations by the incredibly talented Howard Wimshurst. Howard had been an absolute pleasure to collaborate with on this project. When I first saw Howard's style I was hooked and knew I needed to get him on board for this one and I'm so happy I did. Make sure to check out Howard's channel!

Special thanks to Jakob Burkhardt for helping with shooting a ton of this footage over the past 2 years! together we traveled the globe and collected tons of memories :)
Thank you to everyone who has been supporting me and my work, I could not have made this without you all.

These transitions, sound effects, visuals, everything...are beyond me! Stunning work here! Only a burning desire can create what we all just witnessed, not a school, teacher, or any other influencer.

You will learn more in experience than school

My heart was beating so fast watching this whole video. Next level.

It’s been 4 years since this masterpiece came out and I have watched it probably a hundred times (maybe more), still it doesn’t fail to give me unreal goosebumps everytime.

"This is a Reminder to Myself, that life can end at any moment and to never let it slips thru my fingers". Reminder was like a trailer for this, it was worth waiting. You are truly legend, legend man

[@RhettandClaire]

Tears of sadness for you while watching this and tears of pure amazement. What a work of art, your brother can be extremely proud of you 👊🏼

Blackout

Honestly, I started crying for some reason the second the animation started in the video. It touched me in so many ways. Just to think that the person i look up to, my older brother would be gone... I could not even handle the thought. On 3:15 I had to stop the video, start writing this comment and think. In my life right now, i dont really know what i want or where i want to be later on. Finished school with 18, traveled New Zealand for a whole year, had the freacking time of my life and now i dont know what to do, what to study and where to go with my future. All I want is to continue the kiwi life i had. Frick man, I struggle with motivation quite a lot tbh. I am not gonna say your video fixed my life but it showed me once again that a lot of effort can lead to something beautiful and heart warming, that is worth the struggle. I'm not gonna end here were i started damn it. I'll do something so fullfilling and amazing that I will handshake you in a couple of years and thank you for the work you put in this video and what it meant to me. I'm not even done with it and i dont want it to be finished. This is a wake up call for me. That life offers so much. You just have to put the effort in and take it. Just had to be said man. Thank you. Keep up the good work.

[@octavian-9571]

I felt this.

[@guitargrimblin]

I definitely feel that. It's like my soul is getting shaken up, telling me man, you've got to do something. You've just got to get out there. This has been the most incredible week. I watched this for the first time last week and since then I can't stop. I'm pushing so hard my feet hurt and it feels good... I'm losing weight which is a great thing for me. I have taken so many new photos but more importantly I'm planning some big shots over the weekend. Big motivation... HUGE

[@MilkMan6969.]

I still come back and watch this 4 years later 🧍🏻‍♂️

It really doesnt get much better than this.

[@thienlc]

Sam you did it. this is a true filmmaking experience, and you've been able to bring out the emotions of us viewers, I'm so sorry for your loss, but I'm insanely proud of what you've accomplished once you realized that it was an opportunity to show Tim that he was right all along. Hats off for you, Sam.

[@ArielleColon]

you taught me that the world is simply magnificent.

[@soytaylorito]

Forever a masterpiece. Love watching this every few months and still share it constantly with other wanderlusts

[@ardiansyahzulfikar6099]

I thought you were only on vacation, but it turned out to be in the making of an extraordinary project, but behind that.. 😥
