Man, I'm so grateful for you and your wife for showing the world THIS version of Africa. I'm South African and ja no, you're doing the Lords work showing me how beautiful we have it here...👏🏾🤌🏾 Your videos feel so short, and yet so much work has gone into filming and editing. These deserve to be on Netflix or Discovery...

Sometimes there's a good reason there are roads less traveled. That first crossing into Namibia seems like one of them. Love these journey's no matter what. The scenery is simply amazing!

As you’ve returned from your trip, you might already have learnt this trick but just in case. When closing your Roof top tent, leave the doors open ( I normally lay mine flat ) so that the air can escape. Makes closing easier and reduces the change of the canvas getting caught between the two frames

Hi Matt ...I m shooting 40grains slugs out of my fx impact mkII using the Slug power kit ,700mm superior liner,only worrying issue is that I want some speed as mine is shooting out slugs at 915-920 fps at power wheel in max ....I have tuned the valve adjuster too now I keep it at the 2nd ringor mark ...I have heavier hammer too ...but using the standard fx one with the 2washers from the power kit ...kindly let me know to increase the speed to about 1000fps or 980fps
