The Guinean army raided our camp at night…

Cheeky bit of gun cha-changing innit.

It was a pleasure meeting you Russ, you keep running and I'll keep cycling!

[@bc1406]

Good luck to you bro

Give us some of that trust fund son

Absolutely love Guss man. He's really come out of his shell now

[@prometheus_beard]

Handy guy to have around!

[@millllbs]

Don't know what I'll do when this series ends. Will feel like the end of an era. Have motivated me to start running after a lifetime of not. Big up geezer.

[@FabianRWhite]

I hope you keep it up and love running! Best of luck to you.

[@andrewsmith9191]

[@607]

It ends very soon now, but I still have three months of videos to go!

[@messibeaucoup]

If someone could convince Mr. Beast to promote this project on his channel then Russ could easily end up with one million subscribers until Tunesia, which would mean he would have to keep running until Britain!🎉

[@nostorynow9350]

"not a dolphin, a gun loading!" instant classic

[@mattiab173]

Big thumbs up for subtitles ❤ as a non-native English speaker it was very hard to understand true British accent 😅

[@merlinthewizard]

Yes, this allows us to get even more enjoyment out of these videos! Thanks guys!

[@kuguy4006]

First it was the removal of the pissed blood intro scene, and now it's a new channel name. I'm going to cry

[@jimsonjohnson3761]

Then cry baby

[@luke-ti3fu]

Makes complete sense. Wants to build a legacy. No need for a gimmick, his own name stands alone for his feats

[@TheMestarit]

@@luke-ti3fuhe is the hardest geezer best call him who he is

[@mtasapl]

I think the previous name was better. Real names are good if they're less forgettable :)

[@itchyballsack6627]

You've gotta go woke or go broke bruh...

[@d33w]

New channel name and profile picture. About time you guys optimize things for the algorithm. Also the subtitles, it helps! Cheers

[@Andy1989]

I am so glad the police escorts in the early days of the series after the robbery did not become a constant thing. It would have completely stifled their experience and probably our enjoyment of watching them as well.

I really rate Russ encouraging adventures for those less able to fund them. Last October I took my son to wild-camp by some castle ruins near where we live. We had a lot of equipment already from festivals. We don't drive so it was a train and a hike. We arrived at sunset and Finn got to explore the castle in the morning. Someone slipped a fiver in our tent whilst we slept so the entire excursion cost us nearly nothing! I am looking forward to more trips like that this year. The school can't keep him seated and I'm never going to tell him HE'S wrong in this.

[@Peterigepan]

Wow so much insane progress!!! Video quality, finally no “auto youtube subtitles”, everyone finding their place!!! You guys do deserve 1m subs!

[@JohannesWiberg]

The guys surely deserve 1m subs, but I'm not sure Russ deserves having to run all the way home :D

[@Brax1982]

Really? I don't notice too much of a difference. They didn't even have any effects in this one that I could tell? But I watch so much stuff that it has literally been thousands of videos since I saw the first episode of this. Only thing I know: out of everything I watch, this has constantly been the one thing that I often cannot understand a word of for long stretches at a time...

[@Donkeyiser]

8:43 is it weird that I really like when they forget to record the most important parts of the video? Somehow it feels incredibly authentic. It's the opposite of the philosophy of most media - where you have a camera man whose job it is to keep the camera rolling no matter what. Sick children? Get it on camera. People getting injured? Keep the camera rolling. It feels much more human to me that the camera man puts down the camera to help.

[@Lyrics0110]

Let’s get him to A MILLION!!!

[@holmesxl]

Legend. It's been said so many times but this series and channel should be on way more subs and views. KZbin algorithm needs to wake up

[@prometheus_beard]

I bet you do hit 1 mil subs in the last week or two, people will suddenly say they followed the entire thing "yeah yeah mate, watched it all!", whereas us hardocre Russites have vicariously ran Africa for months now. Sympathy puking and everything haha

[@Vanatice]

cheeky new username i see

[@jacobhesse3370]

The humour in this episode, next level 😅🥲

[@sammichvonpotato]

This series is ever-increasing in quality. Incredible production work from Stan and Jamie, top content being produced by Guus, and Russ’ effort is NON-STOP! Love it!

[@theganners5823]

Have you guys tried filming more spontaneously? just when the boys are driving in the van or when Gus goes on his sidequests or even just Russ vlogging randomly when hes running would be cool

[@masterofthejuice9981]

Seconded. The episodes when the van was being shipped around Nigeria and so Russ & Guus had to vlog a bit were my personal favourites of the whole mission! It was nice and all getting the proper editing back once everyone was reunited but the episodes definitely lost some spontaneity and personal touch.

[@Seamalicous]

They’ve cut way down this sort of stuff because it’s not safe to have the cameras/phones out a lot of the time

[@masterofthejuice9981]

@@Seamalicous Fair enough, that makes sense. I also realise Russ doesn't like filming while he's running anyway, but any way they could work a little more of that in, even just a brief little segment every episode or two, would be cool.

[@gregreeves4884]

“Not a dolphin.. guns loading” 😂😂😂

[@Phrygian100]

Tbf it is madness this endeavour hasn't gotten the channel 1M+ subscribers.

[@vinopacino2423]

Pierre actually also means stone in French, which seems about right for that rock-solid baguette

[@Maurice_Ernst]

Get this Geezer to 1million subs!

[@awesomfog345]

‘The views were nice sure, but I couldn’t be fuckin’ bothered’ 💀😂 what an episode. Trip is insane.

[@marshayame]

Really excited to hear more about this adventure idea that Russ has. Adventures have the power to change people's outlook on life and are important for everybody regardless of income.

[@astrolopitekos]

Best episode edit-wise so far. Great new intro, video, sound, subtitles, storyline, the humor, everything. Let’s go! Can’t wait for the Algeria logistics shenanigans 😅

[@PatrickMillais]

Loved the drone shots in this episode - another amazing one! Best time of the week when these videos are released.

[@WillzFN]

Genuinley will be so sad when this series is over. Gus is the best person ever. you deserve 1m subs absoloutley no question

[@MyBikeIsAwesome]

I can’t get enough of this series! I’ve just started watching it from the beginning again and it’s still a joy.

[@timon9463]

I love the combination of "I like my bananas like 5% more firm" and "what's your name?" "Daddy"

[@paoloh885]

The quality of these episodes has been steadily rising throughout the mission. I'm currently recovering from an ACL surgery and these videos have me aching to run again!

[@odegarage]

To be honest this channel really deserves a million subscribers. The editing quality and vibe of these videos is so top notch you chould show these in cinemas. I've watched every episode and enjoyed every bit of it.

[@ridla2003]

guys, the quality of this episode x10!!!!! im doing my first half marathon because of u

[@JoLT53]

Love the addition of built in subtitles in the video, especially with the colour change between people. I always watch with subtitles but this was better.

[@Sam031]

Really good episod! I am christan myself. Glad to hear that good reapons you got from that man. I pray that Jesus will get a hold of your heart, and rest of your awesome running trip. 🇸🇪

[@ruudn]

Since you're a man of the people, maybe after the party in Tunesia you can run back to Cape Town through the east of Africa. That way we don't run out of video content for a couple more months!

[@JGGNGHS]

Mate the Description is killing me :D

[@StarkAcre]

I was so sad to have only found Russ on the LAST video but these videos are so fun to watch I’ve been binging the journey! I don’t know how there’s not 1 million subscribers yall deserve ig

[@ChrisGozzardThatPhysicsGuy]

I feel like just running 60 km as a tribute to Russ.. just once to see what he goes through every day.. we could all do it for Russ. Get off a train 60 km from your house and run/walk home.. just to experience what this guy does everyday...

[@louisana]

Love the addition of subtitles!

[@ALEXLAD94]

Been following since Angola - kinda crazy you’re getting towards the business end of the mission now m9

[@samanthasmith363]

Omg you are absolutely fuckin Killin it. Laughed my way through this episode. You are hilarious. Can't wait for the next one. ❤

[@Fayus1]

So grateful for the subtitles boys!!

[@hannahp1212]

He just causally threw up and then went on running, how come you’re still alive😂😂😂you’re a machine😂😂 love how he’s saying every morning I’m in prime health 😂😂

[@Auntiemarge]

Really appreciated the increase in drone and nature shots this episode, would love more of this going forwards!

[@willp7775]

Keep on stomping bro, the end is slowly but surely getting there. Another great video from The production team btw

[@sedel0]

This channel deserves 10 million subs at least. Keep it up lads

[@Nooticus]

Such a great episode. Insane cinematography. So underrated still

[@Razormiller]

Id love to know how Russ ended up hiring all the lads? Did they just respond to job adverts? If so then where do jobs like ones on Project Africa get advertised haha? Or did Russ know them/some of them b4 the project?? Give us their back stories !!

[@angelamouland8012]

These videos are just insanely good!! Hope the changes help yoou get more subscribers. Top thumbs up for the subtitles.

[@andrewopenside3224]

"Click. Click. Not a dolphin..." Not funny in the moment i am sure but i laughed so hard. Love this series so much.

[@DustyCustard]

Appreciate the subtitles during the van chats. 👍👍

[@esengorain3569]

I think your editing has gotten a lot better!! Way to go Stan. Is Jarred still with your team? Guus sense of humour has been awesome. Keep it up

The ‚pièce de resistance‘ is the main course of a meal, so the context was right! 🙂

[@YRMW1983]

Here in May 2024 (and only heard about it last month), I find it absolutely crazy that this channel hasn’t reached 1 Million subs and/or more views. I don’t know what the algorithm was doing all year, very weird. These types of videos usually do well on KZbin

[@jesperenemark5339]

Another absolute banger, love the content. Keep it up boys

[@simeondrage]

Great episode. Great way to end my weekend

[@RaphaelElijah]

Great episode! Would have loved to have seen some of the interaction between Russ and the American at the end

[@MsJosiejo32]

One of my fave episodes so far, you folks are just the coolest, and honestly so inspiring. I'm gonna plan an adventure, a super cheap one.

[@quaidrasmussen4151]

It’s a shame and a puzzler that this man doesn’t have a million subscribers

[@barnabygubb8323]

underrated channel, for all the tripe with millions of views on KZbin, this deserves much more! all the best and hope it all comes good for you and your team. Tremendous fucking effort with the running.

[@luke-ti3fu]

Class stuff all round. Great to see viewers trending up. Still reckon you can get to 250k subs by the close of project Africa.

[@mackie_p]

Great content my guys!

[@karabotlhophane6081]

Can't wait for that Project Africa adventures

Did anyone else notice how he runs through a place called Sandenia after throwing up Sardines?

[@SimsVlog]

All of you deserve more subscribers! I love your videos!!

[@rustyshackleford2934]

thank you so much for the subtitles! as an American there are definitely times where i had trouble understanding some of the gents due to their accents.

[@binkybombastic6200]

I don’t even think the accent was a problem, but more the audio itself. No one wearing microphones (of course), background noises etc… I didn’t have any problems understanding the ‚storytelling‘.
