Game of Thrones / Locations on Iceland!

Game of Thrones / Locations on Iceland by Landcruiser HJ 80 Diesel on 38";
From July 9th until July 20th, we went for a trip to your beautiful country taking the ferry from denmark. Luckily we were equiped with a Land Cruiser (which has been iceland-optimized in Reykjavik back in the 90th), my good friend Pete Ruppert - he is a famous fashion photographer here in germany and gained off-road experience with his Cruiser in Australia, the Sahara, Israel and Jordania etc. - had the idea to revisit iceland (for him the 8th time - my first visit) taking his son Paul (13) and my daughter Eva (12). We toured the central highlands, went to Askja and the northern parts of Vatnajökull, experienced some transmission probs which made us follow the main circular road (to stay near possible tech support), to Reykjavik, the blue lagoon, Thingvellir, Vik, Höfn and back to the ferry. Kids and us where overwhelmed by the impressions of a landscape which literally changes behind every corner. The weather wasn't always nice but even rainy days produce a special charakter. All in all a perfect trip - the Kids signed up for 'not taking' electronical devices - and they did not regret..!

Sehr gute Filmaufnahmen und eine tolle Reise!

[@pedroperdomo6306]

Beautiful country, beautiful land cruiser.... amazing travelling.... excellent!!

[@peteruppert]

thank you, Pedro!

[@annerough]

And during that time you were there it was the worse weather conditions since the 80's! The warm weather came on the 23 of July and up north it was up to 85 Fahrenheit up north of all places. Thank you for sharing

[@peteruppert]

indeed you are right! weather was horrible.. the film of course shows only the few nice glimpse of sun that we had..

[@padillajeanclaude30]

very nice truck and wonderful landscape, owesome

[@LuisRuiz-pr3cy]

Very nice video, very nice location. A different way to discover the nature.

[@EricBalcon]

wow, what a great car to visit iceland and with the tent on the roof, no problem of car location, no bills to rent hotels, you can bring your food with you, that's cool. I have looked to cross the sea to reach iceland, this is crazy expensive, around 2800 euros.

[@andrewbarr574]

Si algun dia llega el apocalipsis solo espero tener en mi poder un camioneta Toyota con sus piezas ARB para poder irme a los lugares mas remotos e intentar sobrevivir.

[@pedroperdomo6306]

Hola, tengo una serie 80 equipada en Venezuela llegó el Apocalipsis, pero no hay gasolina, muy duro, pero es un vehículo muy fuerte y de fácil mantenimiento, mecánica sencilla, definitivamente Toyota en sus series 70 y 80 son para el Apocalipsis, lo único que podría detener las es el combustible, saludos!

[@r_e_surface]

"- the Kids signed up for 'not taking' electronical devices - and they did not regret..!" GREAT!

[@bighands69]

There is nothing wrong with electronic devices. The issues are peoples behaviors around these, Just as having issues with eating too much food or staying up too late.

[@macnet83]

[@pajer10clicks64]

nice truck and great scenery but it looks like all of this could be driven in a stock 4WD with AT's and a snorkel. Mainly dirty roads and some river crossings.

[@jaber4774]

[@ThePikeywayne]

Awesome video, you just made me even more determined to modify my fj80. I plan to drive as much of our planet as possible, closer continents first until my youngest is 16 (she's nearly 9 :-) bless her) then I hope there will be no stopping me! Thanx

Hi, love the video. Do you have any info or a link regarding your rear tire carrier? looks like a great idea, kind of a step ladder to get into the back.

[@patwerm]

Toll gefilmt und verarbeitet, ein tolles Fahrzeug und atemberaubende Landschaften, möchte ich gerne auch mal bereisen, gibt es eine bestimmte Route die ihr gefolgt habt? Grüsse aus der Schweiz, Patrick

[@peteruppert]

hi patrick! danke für dein lob! wir hatten Probleme mit dem wagen, deshalb sind wir nach dem 1. Abstecher zum gletscher ins landesinnere einfach um die insel gefahren, auf gut frequentierten strassen, um im worst case hilfe bekommen zu können.. gruss aus mittelerde, pete

[@89yota18]

Very nice set up. I like the lower stance with the big tires. I want to set up my 89 4runner in a similar way. Any tools of the trade u recommend?

[@JonesingForSpeed]

Great video sir. What music was used here?

[@joliettraveler]

If you really want some exciting 4x4 driving try Black Bear Pass in Colorado, USA. Google it. Drove it and scared the hell out of my wife. Kids were excited.

[@skhochay]

can you pl post detail pictures of your rig - I like what you done - working on my - thanks

Great video and great car! Congratulations!

[@weltron2005]

Cuando nos hacemos uno así???

jejejeje, a qué mooolaaa? berraquísimo!

[@kletterman]

What song is this? Nice rig by the way.

[@peteruppert]

hey ruslendingur! if it calms you down: we only did use roads or tracks where others drive all the time!we respekt nature and do not ruin soil off road! ..and these kids are used to stunts all their life- no worries!

[@florencioxatruch5429]

Epic TLC, What is the name of that fantastic planet?

[@luqmanrahimhf]

Wow huge 80 Can I know the size of tires ?

[@peteruppert]

tire size 38x15.5R15

[@joezhang3659]

太漂亮了，真美

[@grahameastham]

Hi Pete - we are heading there in 2016 in our 93 cruiser . Where did you get the rear ladder ? Ive been looking for one for ages ? Top video by the way and VERY professional - Graham.

[@peteruppert]

Graham Eastham hi graham! to tell you the truth: this ladder has been welded customized in australia from aluminum.. been there in 1998 with this 1993-cruzer.. but any pro-mechanic/body-workshop should do the job.. thanx4compliments anyway bro!

[@grahameastham]

Pete Ruppert No worries Pete. Thanks for the reply . Do you get a lot of wind noise from it ?

[@peteruppert]

Graham Eastham no wind noise at all..! maybe because the tires are extremely loud:))

[@grahameastham]

roger that !

[@hefraz]

Love to see more pictures of this Land cruiser, got a link for me? thanks

[@bearpaw7169]

This is beautiful, but are there any plants/trees? ive never seen game of thrones.

[@matthewchanthakoumane4680]

Hey hi everyone, I enjoy the music! It would be nice if I would like to know the name of the song? Any infos will be apreciated. Thank you.

[@doddijones]

It's a hell hole. 25% of tourist that go there never come back. they die there. Yes 1/4.

[@peteruppert]

i was there 10 times and always came back! so i survived 2,5x the average kill ratio!
