This is insanity. To edit a video of this scale would normally take a week at least. But the amazing team managed to pull off this gargantuan edit in just two days! Big shout out to Marcus, David, Lucas and Ross for making it happen and delivering an almost 40 minute episode. Special thanks to Yasu for finding out about this island and to Ozaki san (the owner) for letting us on to film! You can find his much more easily accessible campsite near Tokyo at the link here! www.masaruhills.com/ JOURNEY ACROSS JAPAN continues with Connor joining us for several more episodes - or what's left of him after this episode and his 2 hours of sleep.

[@anastasiiazdorikova]

Yup. It normally takes one night sleeping in the cold and you start being very well-versed in all kinds of winter camping gear. Shout out to our boy Connor, building the tents and keeping the fire going!

[@barbarawright5306]

[@Zuxicovp1]

Connor was the best of the group and he had 0 handwarmers, poor guy

[@lowkey276]

What's surprising is they only built a fire and some tents. No terraforming at all (small things like dunes around the tent to protect from the wind, trenches in case the water rose and of course set the tent nails in wood then burry them deep it in the sand to avoid drifting in a worse case scenario)

[@Izukachan]

It legit takes only one night camping unprepared to forever learn that you can't be unprepared to camp. The cold is a great teacher.

[@Atariese]

Im with conner. Camping is not something to spring on someone. A good sleeping bag and the right boots make a big difference.

[@DieAlteistwiederda]

Springing cold weather camping especially is how you die or get hurt. During the warmer months it's really a lot easier to just wing it for a night at least if it's not raining or something like that. I know someone who went camping spontaneously during early October here in Germany. Suddenly there was a massive rain storm and the temperatures dropped and they didn't have enough protection from the elements and had they not managed to get to a train station to huddle in they probably would have gotten hypothermia or something like that at the very least.

[@joshuvay1624]

yeah but its ALOT funnier if he doesn't know and is forced onto an island where he could very well die if he is not prepared.

I was honestly expecting Natsuki to make a surprisingly introspective haiku entirely in Japanese just to surprise us all but no. It's better. It's... it's magical. It's a perfect descriptor of the situation you're all in. The setting. The situation. The grim conclusion to it all that once again plays with death, as so many death poems during the Sengoku Era went. And it doesn't even follow the 5-7-5 rule, paralleling Natsuki's rebellious nature in the face of almost certain destruction. It's perfect. It's got my vote. "Island, No toilet No life" - Natsuki-dono, a modern poet monk and Black Santa himself, c. 2023.

[@chokladKuchen]

When written out in katakana it does follow the correct 5-7-5 "on" rule.

You guys really have to get legit winter camping gear. This could really get dangerous. It also would have been better to share a tent. I swear Connor is going to pack some of those mylar emergency blankets in his bag from here on out. And some thermal long John's. And extra socks. (You really should never keep wet socks on, especially overnight, especially especially if it's cold)

[@mateusv]

Chris and Connor looked genuinely worried when Natsuki said "tonight talking, cooking, f*cking" 😂 Btw I got a bit scared when Natsuki was pouring oil on the flames. An uncle of mine did that when he was a teenager and he got horribly (and permanently) burn scarred. He learned to live with it, and he even makes fun of his deformities by calling himself "barbeque", but that's a very dangerous practice.

Yeah no shit it was miserable. As someone that guides friends while camping that shit is stressfully, you want them to be comfortable. This should have been Chris his responsibilities especially as he didn't inform Connor. But now he had to do it all without any preparation.

[@derekcook8358]

I really hope this was a thorough learning experience for Chris. Lesson notes: 1. You cannot enjoy camping without preparing and acquiring appropriate gear. 2. Camping by a body of water makes for an especially cold night. 3. You can never fully trust someone else to supply all the gear you need to be comfortable and enjoy the experience. 4. Surprise camping is usually not fun, it's survival. 5. The more insulation between you and the cold ground, the better. 6. Removing your outer layers of clothes helps you sleep. 7. Tents primarily provide a barrier against wind and rain, while blankets, tarps, air pockets, and cushions provide barriers against heat loss or gain. 8. Biodegradable wet wipes can make any trip more comfortable and hygienic. Bonus: 1. Hot soups, stews, and drinks tend to help people going to and getting out of cold sleeping arrangements. 2. Being a stanky, Kentucky fried man-child is a bit disgusting and makes people not want to share an onsen with you. So, grow TF up and use the bidet.

For those that don't know, those hand warmers are a metallic powder that reacts exothermically with the air, typically the reaction is iron dust reacting with oxygen forming iron oxide... or what we know is rust. Powdered iron, and the subsequent rust powder can actually escape these pouches, is both a skin irritant, and also a poison that can damage your liver, respiratory system and can stimulate your blood flow in erratic ways. While having them in your pockets for your hands to absorb the warmth will only lead to minor irritation is a minor side effect that is naturally more desirable than cold hands and you should properly wash your hands before touching your face or food, enclosing yourself with 30 packs of them can lead to you inhaling or ingesting the dust that escapes these packages damaging your lungs, heart and liver and is not advisable... also probably not an ideal choice to rub your face with them. I recommend that an editor, or the man himself, put a disclaimer on the video advising against this plan to stay warm.

pretty amazing, chris!! i think it could have been amazing if cdawg got into that meditation cave & vocalized an “ohm” or two! pretty sure the vocal resonance would have been mind blowing. no slight to your lovely voice or natsuki’s either. 🙃🗣⛰

One thing I love that you hadn't done in a while is reading negative and hate comments. Your sarcastic humor makes me laugh so much. I've always loved your content what ever you post and I'm glad I stumbled to your channel all those years ago

Omg I love Matsushima! Went there this summer, and it was the best place of my month long trip. Whilst the place was small, and there weren't many shops and restaurants, the amazing scenary and the lovely people really made up for it. But I will agree, it is best experienced in the summer heat ;)
