Just came out of a 16 hour power blackout here in outback North Queensland, temperature is 39 degrees, no internet or phone,and a cyclone has us lined up aswell when BANGO! Power is on, phone and internet is back up! AND...SCOTTY HAS UPLOADED!🕺💃🕺💃 Life is good!👍

@jonchristopher2327 6 месяцев назад

The 2 of you make great entertaining videos that bring smiles and also show a very different perspective. Thanks

Wow, that was tough. Hope the ankle and the stitches are all well recovered! I was with a group in the Blue Mountains once, we made a long steep walk down the escarpment into the valley, to go swimming in a 'secret' waterhole. As expected, there was no-one else in this isolated gully when we arrived. We stripped off for a swim, and hadn't been there 15 minutes when one of our group slipped over on a slimy rock and hurt her ankle. It swelled up straight away and she couldnt put any weight on it. She was in a fair bit of pain and we feared it was broken. 40 years ago there weren't any satellite phones. The track out was so steep and narrow that carrying her was nearly impossible. In the end she sort of hopped all the way up the track on one leg, hanging on to 2 sets of shoulders. We weren't sure we could even get her to the top, but we did; once there, our cars were at hand and everything got sorted. Since then I have never taken safety in the bush for granted and I've had to deal with a few medical situations in the bush. Good to see you were prepared with a first aid kit and bandages.

The tougher the trip the better the memories, well done gentlemen.

@orbearis 6 месяцев назад

I really do love your videos. Unfortunately, at my age (79) I have too many issue with knees an legs so I can't get into or out of a Kayak. With THAT in mind, I do it thru your videos.

@mudeye5739 6 месяцев назад

Pretty easy to injure yourself portaging. I broke my foot packrafting in New Zealand (kicked a rock wading in the river), the next day I rolled my packraft in a rapid and got separated from my raft. I was stranded and had to activate my inreach device, a helicopter was sent to rescue me.

@boilertech44 6 месяцев назад

Wow, I'm hurting just watching you two grind through this. Glad you both made it safely! Thanks for sharing.

@truthseeker922 6 месяцев назад

Well done boys for surviving such a hellish adventure. You guys work so well together. You're like the Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis of Aussie bushcraft.

@welshbearbushcraft798 2 месяца назад

I work alot around waterfalls and we use ice grips to stop us from slipping you on the rocks they work wonders. You can pick them up pretty cheap if you have boots you can even buy ice stud's for them which you install permanently into the boot they are awesome for slippery rocks also both options are inexpensive. You can pick them up for less than $30 it beats spending thousands of dollars getting chopperd out with a broken ankle. 😊

@Fiona_Chasing_Light 6 месяцев назад

This really was an exceptional effort for both of you - to come out of such a challenging trip with great videos is such an achievement! It's also been really wonderful to see your friendship and camaraderie - so glad this was a trip you both did so you came out alive!

@ronaldwhite5670 6 месяцев назад

Well boys, I’ve watched both presentations on this “adventure”. Both presentations were professionally delivered. Very interesting and very picturesque. The courage and determination displayed by both of you was remarkable. Your compatibility throughout such an arduous venture was a breath of fresh air. Congratulations on surviving, and thank you, cheers 🍻

@campfirejesus 6 месяцев назад

Seriously well done on this mate, it must have been incredibly difficult to put that amount of effort into filming on such a taxing trip

@lanecountybigfooters5716 6 месяцев назад

What a BEAUTIFUL river! Unbelievable. Those drone shots...wow! I LOVE seeing Australia like this. Thank you for that. Also the shot at 12:07 is perfection, the perfect camp. glad you survived and thank you so much for taking us along.

@danboutdoors4584 5 месяцев назад

Looks like a hard slog boys!!! Well done 💪 Make sure you don’t accidentally get orange juice when you’re making pina coladas… we made that mistake once, and they curdled straight away. We called them Pina Collapsoes 😂😂😂 You didn’t notice the taste after 3 but 😉

@rosemaryshepherdsmith5110 6 месяцев назад

@ivansiladji 6 месяцев назад

Haha. Credit to Scotty for carrying around 1kg extra in the pack just for pina coladas for 2 days. 🤣 Nice work fellas.

@leannasty 6 месяцев назад

What a trip Scotty. Having dipped my toes in to filming adventures recently and experiencing how much goes on behind the scenes and how much exhaustion it all adds, in addition with the already gruelling mission, I can't imagine how cooked you guys would have been during this. Cheers

@richardrichards5982 6 месяцев назад

What an adventure!

@louiskudlak2256 5 месяцев назад

That was epic, such an accomplishment, well done, would be something to strive for, lov to do something like that, push my physical boundaries ❤

@Oh-Wells 6 месяцев назад

One of the most visually beautiful videos you've produced, but the dedication and positivity in face of some serious trials is the real story here. I've always subscribed to the theory of the 'three types of fun', and this very much looked like Type-II fun. We're all privileged to get to be spectators to that story!

@theomallos1091 5 месяцев назад

You boys need some canyon shoes... Epic video, keep up the good work.

What a trip, Scotty! Glad the Swagman wasn't hurt too seriously. I did hear that a Yowee was spotted wearing a hat.

One of your best edits yet mate! Mattsy is one of a kind haha.

Come to British Columbia! I believe you’d really enjoy the scenery and backpacking trails here. Also, love the videos!

Once again good sir, you’ve entertained and inspired us! Thanks for sharing your epic weekend.

@rodgeorge7244 6 месяцев назад

Awesome effort Scotty you and Mattsy are very entertaining and maybe a little crazy .As for the mole removal good idea I had one on my back that started to change shape off to the Doc byopsy then the big shock it was Malignant Melinoma surgery to remove it about 150 stitches but they got it all so big sigh of relief that was about 14 years ago .Stay safe mate.

@Amanda-ei7oc 6 месяцев назад

Been a fan of yours for a long time now Scotty but I bloody love your videos with Mattsy! You guys have a great connection on camera and always have some fabulous adventures. The film work and vistas in this one were epic! And what a massive effort for the both of you to do it! Thanks so much for sharing it with us all.

Hellish trip but damned entertaining!

@harrisoncandlin 5 месяцев назад

Mate this was awesome! Wild place

@Judy-fi7ce 6 месяцев назад

What a challenging paddle and hike, to say the least. Don't know how you did it. All those boulders and then Mattsy spraining his ankle. Good to see Mattsy again. That Pina Colada must've tasted extra good after a hard day. Congrats on catching the carp Mattsy! Nice drone shots which showed all those boulders you had to traverse. Great video!

@kevinkrause744 6 месяцев назад

Beautiful country! Felt soled shoes/ boots are great on slippery rocks.

@richardeljay 6 месяцев назад

Great, gruelling, vid. For 1st time watched channel on wide TV screen .. some of drone shots showed real beautiful (if unforgiving) scenery. All of this for our entertainment. Thank you.

@yvonnepoor1366 6 месяцев назад

You and Mattsy never do easy packrafting trips 😂. I was cringing at all the ankle rollers you two had to get through. Thanks for the video, really enjoyed it.

@zander_williment 5 месяцев назад

One of my fave vids of yours I reckon. Good effort documenting all the hard stuff, that’s when you really just wanna put the camera away. Loved the tunes too. Gotta get me a packraft!

@sharyns.shenanigans 6 месяцев назад

Congratulations on great editing, I really felt how gruelling the trip was and enjoyed every minute of your amazing raw adventure.

Loved seeing both perspectives here. It was brutal hey, but also so beautiful. I hope that the infection was kept at bay. Thanks for a great video!

That sure was a special little camp spot you had there boys! Awesome 🤩

@rikkim4818 6 месяцев назад

Stunning cam work Scotty. Just beautiful.

@joelandersson8504 6 месяцев назад

Oh the sweet struggle! Paddling down a completely calm and meandering river is just boring, to the point that "meander" is a bad word to me and my friend. It was October or November, not a nice time on the northern hemisphere. It had rained for weeks. We went in three or four times, and even the birch bark and dead spruce twigs the survival experts tell you about wouldn't burn. Still great memories...

@rhondachapman3688 6 месяцев назад

Can’t believe you guys made it through the gorge of doom with only one injury. Job well done boys 💜💜

Hey, BIG, thank you to you two for taking that hit for our enjoyment. I'm missing the campfire quite a bit at the moment. You two filled a hole for a while. Well done as always, Scotty. 😊

@GaryTischer 6 месяцев назад

Great video guys. As a fellow packrafter, I’d call that trip a hike …. an epic hike 🏕️🐍

@randyhiggins9635 5 месяцев назад

Watched this one again ! I feel for you ! What a grueling trip ! Used to plan my trips by the amount of rain coming while on your trip. That would easily be a class 4 or more rapids if it was flood stage !!

@markmcgrath2540 6 месяцев назад

Great job fellas. Haven't been able to get out for a while and really missing the bush. Your vids just make keener to get out. 👍

@meandmyoru 6 месяцев назад

Wow! Stunning location! It looked like a trip where you ended up walking more than paddling! But what an adventure! I think that cocktail was well & truly needed that's for sure 😀 Definitely must have been one big trip to remember!!

@Lukeslittletribe 6 месяцев назад

Well done fellas .. your grit and determination was inspiring. Also makes me laugh seeing how much Mattsy has caught the fishing bug 😂

@noral1188 4 месяца назад

I can really relate to your suffering and pain, yet you two managed to get through. Given your extensive experience in the outdoors, you ought to apply for the TV show "ALONE." Thank you for sharing your experience.

@BushKayakersCampingAustralia 6 месяцев назад

Nice wild rugged country . nice vid . In my younger days i use to get down into lots of wild places like that in the gorge country around the New England tablelands nsw . Maybe you should get up there and give some of those places a go Probably some great packrafting trips there . might want to take some abseiling gear with you too just to be sure
