Ed, Hi! This is Emir, the kid you taught at English Zone and the one who appeared in this video for a few moments. I hope you are doing well in the times of distress. I just wanted to ask a favor. I’d be grateful if you could share with me some of the videos you made at English zone with all of us together. Thank you!

Ed, you’re the perfect example of courage and positive thinking. So many of us are just not even able to project ourself in such adventures, and even if we were to make the first move, we would stop at the first difficulty. At least, we can dream to have been able to do like you, and seeing your videos just remind us what we are missing!

You should do worse camp spots

[@DaveKahn]

Like the one where he woke up with the tent completely flooded. :-) The impressive thing about Ed is the way he deals with adversity whether stranded with a broken hub or crippled by injury and unable to mount the uni. Always cheerful, always optimistic.

[@caseysmith544]

@@DaveKahn The one he had to in USA go under the underpass in rain and camp, that might be the same one. Oh and the caught by the USA Forest ranger for the National Park. those are some of his worst I would bet. Also the one where the wind in Australia on the Nula Bore Flat nearly had him flying away, was a day or two before or after the Hines Bake Beans thing.

[@Mike-oz4cv]

He was lucky there. In my experience if you get found by the locals there are two options: Either they are totally friendly, giving you food and a place to sleep OR they harass or even rob you. It’s pretty much 50/50.

[@anii992]

Really makes me want to go camping now! In relation to the creepy toys; I spent some time on a constuction site at a remote village in China. Workers are usually given simple accomodation on site and it seemed like it was normal that they brought their close family to live with them. During the work day the women would cook and clean and the children would play.

[@farmerhelpline5083]

try in northen india ,it will b better

[@andrejka_sacred_coach]

when toys and shoes are left behind, of poor people, that to me seems like human trafficking.. that child did not need them anymore.

Is it possible that it is left over from the Sichuan earthquake in 2008?

[@miraclo3]

i just spent the last 3 months up until the snow started falling here in Canada on my riding around the mountains on my Adventure motorcycle while camping the entire time. i have to say that There is something seriously special about wild camp spots that just makes my soul happy. no cost and no people just at one with nature. something i just really love about it. makes me so happy to see your favorite wild spots. id love to see a 10 more wild camp spots video because i know you have a lot more than just 10 thanks for sharing. :)

[@toruko-ishibravo2zulu679]

I likewise do single-track cross-country. When Canada again allows me winter entry I go look for caves east of Mount McGuire in BC. Summer ride takes me up that mountain to find other caves. See the BC Speleological Federation to learn more. In hot weather the cave air is cool. In freezing weather the cave air is warm. Hmm. Go figure.

[@donschwartz8341]

This is my first introduction to you, I will watch, and subscribe, mostly because of your attitude! I'm in the twilight of my life, and I think the streetlights are on, lol, some will understand. You have done a wildly magnificent thing, and to have the rest of your life to pass on this adventure, to future generations, is almost without description. Back in the day, lol, I worked with an English gentleman, it was backbreaking labor, I was young and he was old. Sometimes when I was at the end of my rope, he told me that the English, have a saying, or motto, "Crack On" that he told me meant you just keep going! Never forgot it, and somehow to me it just seemed better to say, 'I guess I'll just crack on' than to say 'don't quit', lol don't know why. But when I watched you, I thought of him, and that's a compliment.

Definitely one of the better compilation videos I’ve ever seen on KZbin. Great work Ed, well jealous of your amazing tour, but also your wonderful perseverance. Thanks for making these videos

[@kevinzhou7442]

I am from China and I can tell you what the man made cave is. It is a bunker, there was a lot of them built in China in the Second World War when the Japanese used to bomb China.

[@laod7192]

This bunker should not be built during WW2. Maybe in 60/70s when China was under the nuclear threat from the USA and USSR.

[@toruko-ishibravo2zulu679]

I was in a bunker when Chinese 122 mm rockets were exploding. Made to deliver either a lethal chemical or canister loads. If I killed any Chinese it was purely accidental as I was paid to go there and kill Non-Chinese.

[@EumelHugo]

When I read the title of this video, I immediately knew that the castle in Germany "Ruine Reußenstein" would be among your top 10. And hey, it almost made it to the fist place. Not far from where I grew up and I did a lot of cycling over the years in this gorgeous mountainous area including the L1200 you also travelled along that day. Big thumbs up for this beautiful vid.

[@BrokenCurtain]

Sadly, wild camping isn't allowed in Germany - although you might get away with it if you don't leave traces, respect private property and are friendly. On the other hand, failure to follow those rules of conduct may result in fines ranging from 100 euros up to several thousand euros. There is an exception for bivouaking and hammocks, though, as those setups are considered to be more temporary than tents. It's also worth pointing out that it is not allowed to light an open fire in or near forested areas most of the time of the year. The exact rules vary from state to state, so it's a good idea to look them up before setting off on a journey.

[@andrewdunbar828]

The tunnel works in Sichuan looked very familiar. On my last adventure around China a few years ago I picked a random highway in the direction I wanted to go and hitchhiked down it. A forgotten number of rides and hours later I got to where an earthquake or landslide had destroyed the highway and new tunnels were being constructed. I was following some workers up a rough path around a rockslide, couldn't keep up because my packs were heavy and awkward and ended up in a very loose sketchy section with nobody around. Somehow I managed not to slide all the way down into the river, ferried my gear across to solid land, and call out to some other workers who helped carry my stuff back to the road and into a tunnel where their car was parked and given a ride to something like civilization to continue hitching. I didn't camp in any bits of tunnel though and I'm jealous you went through Qinghai too.

Super nice video Ed. It is nice to see footage from different time in your travel. We can see you getting older (and wiser) from this adventure. And we can also see your filming skill getting better. That's very inspiring. And It's nice to see your excitment when you realized that you loved this adventure and you won't give up. I felt it too after couple of week or unicycling around Estonia. And now, I just want to do more of it !

Oh what a ride your video has triggered. I love every bit of your reports, the energy you are transmitting.

Some of the most memorable parts of that trip were the places I spent the night. You should do a "10 worst places I slept" video!

[@DFDuck55]

After walking through a tunnel through a mountain, which was also a fallout shelter, in Yosemite National Park, and it was late enough there were no more cars coming by to hitchhike to, so I slept in the bushes at the south end of the tunnel. I was later told that was a favorite spot for people looking for rattlesnakes. Another time after doing some backpacking in Desolation Wilderness in the Sierra Mountains, my friend and I hitchhiked to Santa Cruz, California. It was quite late when we got there, so we climbed up a cliff and slept in a small grove of bamboo. In the morning two very surprised children coming to playing what was apparently their fort, found us sleeping there. My friend cried and said "I want to go home." So to give him the full experience of living on the road the next night I got two large boxes out of a shoe store dumpster, climbed over a fence and slept in some trees between two highways. We slept remarkably well in those boxes.

Hey Ed. Love your videos. Just awesome. Was thinking as you went to pick up that can of baked beans from the road in Australia: how many of these encounters does this guy film? Does he check something out first and then go and film it? How many times has he wanted to film something but can't? Was thinking that you could make a video about all the best stories you weren't able to catch on camera. Maybe collaborate with a small animation channel and tell the story through their animation and your narration? Just a little idea.

As far as eating damaged canned goods goes as long as you hear the air rush into the can when you break the seal open then you're fine. Rotate the can around and upside down and try to listen for air leaking in before you break the seal. If you don't hear leaks and air rushes into the can when you open it you're good.
