You shouldn’t be embarrassed mate your channel is gold. You should be proud of yourself and what you’ve done with your channel Mandingo 👌🏻

i think the reason lots of people like you and your channel is because your real your chill your not some fancy fake youtuber your just a normal guy with a camera doing what u love and sharing it with the world keep up the hardwork thank you for the awesome videos

I’ve never wanted a person to do so well in life. Proper gent & hard working fella you deserve whatever comes your way Chris. It may be a low budget channel but if you can ever get big sponsor’s that give you expensive equipment that can make life better and easier for you to make videos to free more time up with the family then you deserve it. Top man 👍🏻

Yes little Messi! Good camp dog Messi is, he knows not to yap at every noise 👍 top Poodledingo

I was expecting a simple answer ‘yes’ to my question if you ever get recognised. You replied with a lovely long answer. Bless you Chris.

love hawthorne dene, my dad used to take us there as kids like 45 year ago! loved having a bonfire on the coal beach we used to dam that stream. the beach was derelict then and no one really came through. we would make a swing in the trees in the dene. for some reason I really remember the smell of wild garlic in the woods! great vid mate thank you brought back some great memories

So thanks to you, I now look at every roundabout, retail park and industrial estate looking for stealth camping spots! Cheers Blot 👍😃

Sunday night..weekends over, work in the morning, Blot Outdoors comes along to save the day! Absolutely love it, such a highlight of my week.

Watching now. Absolutely adore Messi, so damn cute, looks like he loves to go on your trips, and you talk to him so nice 😀 you're getting famous now!! These videos are perfect I would be so sad if anything changed, keep being you, you're brilliant xx

Chris, you deserve all the success and recognition you're getting, you're a sweet and friendly guy helping people out with wholesome, fun content each week to get through the shitty parts of life. Cheers mate

This is the perfect format don't change to much, very original and entertaining. YOU KNOW IT MAKES SENSE!

Look forward to your videos every week mate, nothing like chilling out on a Sunday with a bit of blot!

I’ve got into the habit of following you in real-time on google maps when you’re walking to your camping spots hahaha Found your channel last summer and the way it’s rocketed is so good, it’s down you to Mandingo, be proud to represent us normal blokes in the world. Not all heroes wear capes mate 😉💪

Dogs are class. Couldn't live without them

Your channel is doing so wel, because you show camping like it is. No nonsense, just a fun mandingo enjoying a camp. Great location and loads of fun as allways.

That hound is a verified BEAST! And it understands broad Geordie! Loved the vid. My late Dad didn't mind a wee dram of Laphroaig but did prefer the Glenfiddich. As for 'not true stealth'... not every camp needs to be as if you're in immediate danger of being arrested by the Stasi and hung over a cliff with your bootlace tied to a daisy. You are arguably the most consistent, true stealth camper on RU-vid and deserving of the odd easy one.

That’s what’s great about you an your show Chris it’s real an your genuine great sense of humour xx

Watching your videos is our routine of a Sunday evening. Like how your channel has evolved and developed its own style. Keep up the good work. Rights!

Love that your putting Co.Durham on the map & people from around the world watching you on RU-vid! Top man 👍🏻 rightssss

your q and a was very heart warming love it made me laugh a few times u sir are a true gent

CHRIS!!!! My ManFriend! You find some the most fun spots to camp, this Viaduct spot looks amazing and I love the lil cavern there to chill out in. I could so see my Dad out doing this same thing with his dog. These videos are peaceful and really ignite the want to be out in the elements camping, could be stealthy city or some wild camping it just really brings an air of happiness when you watch these.

I always appreciate the low key, simple style of your videos. It's always the perfect vibe for winding down on a Sunday night. Cheers!

The little dog dingo beautiful Absolutely brilliant well done have happy thing doing black barrel review at the minit, great to be alive. Thank you stay safe .

I LIke the location mate . Leave nothing but a footprint. Ace as ever.

I love the northeast I,m a Lancashire lad you’re vids are great and you are brilliant to watch 👍🤩

Absolutely wonderful Mandingo, Messi & you are both legends. Make me proud to be a Sunderland lass. Thank you.

top bloke! understand your sons problems and not go after it. love the blot community proper real people!!

What a lovely trip out for Messi. Great to see him enjoying your adventure.

Superb chris i love seeing messi the wonder dog his little tale is always swinging away he's a an absolute beauty , another class video mate 👍

Wow what an amazing part of the world you live Chris you are a very lucky Mandingo…. Ohhhh yesssss great to see little messi the hiking dog!! Howay messi son 😍

Always impressed by the amount of food you put away in one night. Buzzing on the content.

I'm new here I accidentally came across one of your videos and can't stop watching all the videos, thank you, it makes me happy mate

Great channel! Always looking forward to Sunday blot out doors show! Much support from Houston Texas! Always making sure I give a nice thumbs up for this channel

Chris the channel is great because you really seem to love what you do. Your a normal dad like the rest of us, like you I think the world of my son too. Keep up with the great work !

Chris, what a wonderful video, so relaxing, I really enjoy these longer ones as I never want them to end lol. Those stairs leading down to the beach are lethal, I can’t understand there are no hand/grab rails. Btw, I actually found some “Howler Head” 🥃 in Tesco when I did my online shop at £30 a bottle so I’ll be ordering some & I’ll let you know what I think..you know it makes total sense..rigghhht!👍😎 I expect your dear lad is at “that age” where everything you say or do is an embarrassment, bless him, one day he’ll be so glad to have these wonderful memories of his Dad via these RU-vid videos. As always, I look forward to your next outing & wish you a cracking week ahead at work.

Absolute class again Chris. I've nearly caught up so not many more now then I'll be up to date. 👍🏼🍺

lets gooooo just got home to a new video!!!! i got my beer and whasky ready cheers mate!

Lovely location. Spooky and atmospheric. Messi is adorable! I'm sure no-one would mind if you spent time with your family and uploaded the video the following weekend, rather than rushing to do it as soon as you get home 👍🍻

lol, when you moved into the tent and started to talk about the smell, I thought the little doggie was going to get the blame for pumpin' (he's a lovely little dog btw)

Another great blott outdoor vlog Chris always great to see where your going to camp next. Your channel is going from strength to strength keep up the great work you know it makes sense. Cheers 🍻

Them steps down look dicey Chris!! Just at the beginning looking forward to getting to the waskey weview!

Great stuff Mandingo! Keep up the great videos, we really appreciate the effort that goes into them

Mara, just binge watched loads of your back catalog, love the channel, best out there good luck Mandingo (and little Smickers).

Another of your very entertaining adventures Chris. Sunday would not be the same without your videos. Thank you Chris and Stay Safe.

You remind me of my Dad who passed 12+yrs back. A genuinely nice, friendly person who never met a stranger. Its nice just watching... :) Dang allergies acting up...

7 o clock? are you trying to spoil us mandingo? Legend! cant wait, you know it makes total sense, RIGHTS❤

A nice relaxing stealth camp by the ocean Chris, I thoroughly enjoyed it. I have a brain surgery scheduled for 03/21/23. Which is the 13 yr anniversary of the first series of grand mal seizures that turned the lights out on life and put me into a coma.

Good lookin the dog with the high viz. Best way to keeper safe and keep a good eye out on'em. Aaahhhh

Watched nearly all your vids now this week. Brilliant.

Your dog is so cute. More stealth camping with your dogs please 🐾

Hi mr blot. My son Turdley and daughter puddles av become fans of your channel too. Also my rottweiler Rover loves watching. He growls and shows his teeth and dribbles with excitement when he sees you and messi. Great videos. Yours always. Bertie..

I've always wondered if people camp in that alcove. I attempted the beach at hawthorn for my first ever wild camp but had to bail cos made a rookie error.... forgot my matches/lighter. Great video mate.

I love the question and answer sessions!👍Mandingo the best stealth camper with an hairy arse on You tube rights!

Monday morning here in Tasmania. Thankfully I have Messi and yourself to look forward to watching when the day is done. Now that makes total sense mandingo. Well appreciated our kid..

It's actually quite hard to edit a good video but also satisfying. And u do it on a Sunday... Recovery day... But the channel is growing well so your doing a great job and the effort is paying off....cheers Mandingo 😎 And u brought the little dingo along 💙 love the little jacket☺️ As for the people in public that's awesome 😎☺️ be proud of yourself mate, people like u because your down to earth and a good laugh...it's brilliant your catchphrases are catching on too..my favorite is pansexual 😂 especially in this day and age 🤣

Brilliant down to earth funny love messy kept up the good work we love watching you x👍

This is a 100x better spot than last week Bro, IMO. 👍🙏

Been watching your videos consistently since last September and can’t stop watching them. Just keep doing what you love mate, we all love watching it!

Thanks Chris for sharing this incredible vlog ! Merci ! 😉

I'm a full fledged addict to your videos great genuine guys great whiskey mix that with the banter world class show 👏🍻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 legend RIGHTS 🥳

Excellent Chris & Messi thanks again RIGHTS 🥃

Messy your dog is so very cute. I hope you give him lots to eat. Enjoy all your vids keep them coming. 💖. And yes you are a natural.

Big Chris gearin up

Excellent if not a bit smelly camp mate,. 28:07 had me crying with laughter. lol a good old belcharoonee slipped out ohhh more tea vicar? lol 👍👍

Sunderland and North East people are great. I watch your channel , as you are a local lad and genuine.

Messi is so well behaved. I am absolutely shocked I have never seen such a well behaved dog in my life. 😊

My dingo friend, I joined you on adventure back like 9 months ago, you better never ever get "Hollywood" and go all filming with a crew, staff. Reason I love you and this channel is cause you are real, drinking whaskey, eating rice, bullshipping, having fun. You're growing because of that!! You are real. But yea be careful on them slicky steps. Messed up my ankle in college walking on them bastards!! :( 😂 Also your fur(I still think Messy as in drink too much whaskey, you get too messy! Giggle!) son is too adorable with his jacket!! :D Great video brother as always!!

Just found your channel and catching up with episodes. Loving them :) And your dog is wonderful. You share such a nice vibe, keep it up :)

Knowing I’m watching this as Chris is starting tonight’s stealth camp is magic!!! Pay day soon Chris, I’ll happily buy you a whaskey xx

The best camping channel on RU-vid, this is what I love about the North East, real down to Earth people, I really hope your channel takes off, I love your positive vibe and enthusiasm, respect Mandingo.

It might not be a retail park/urban area, but it's good to change things up, and still falls into the stealth camping category 🍺😎👍

Glad you give south shields a little shout out haha, but to rights is the North east a great place

The sea and the passing trains. Absolute stealth heaven. Thank you for another super video, always nice to watch on a Monday evening

Your doing awesome. Good hearted chap with a good heart. Keep it up Mandingo..inspiring me..I will try a channel some day..

Little Messi, I'm a dog lover so I'm biased but by God he's class. Little beauty 🙏❤️

Enjoy your videos brother! Another great 👍 job! Missed the little Man dingo!

Don't ever be sorry for talking and talking, that's why we are here! We love hearing you talk. Cheers mate

A pleasure to tag along as usual👍

One of the very few channels I watch regularly. Every Saturday night I'm thinking, I wonder where he is tonight? Love the little bonus videos on a Friday too. You've inspired me to get a tent which is arriving today, a trusty Vango-dingo! I'm going to start in my garden, then hopefully venture further afield. All the best.

Honestly mandingo, that was a brilliant video and one of my favourite ones. Nice and chilled, relaxing and good vibes all around. Keep up the good work......Ahhh....

This one goes to show that fear is all in the mind. Most people would be terrified to camp there and sit in that bunker.

Started following you a week ago, brilliant videos, cracking laughing whether you're out with the human dorsal fon or your dog Messie. Slowly working my way through your vids, sbsolutely fantastic mandingo ahhhh!!!

Good old "Pupdingo!", Pure gold..

That's such a beautiful location. Other campers that I watch only do stealth half the time. I like these chill camping and drinking videos.

Great to see the Wartime Pill Box.

Great video 👍 I'd love to be that one person that accidentally stumbles across you while your stealth camping..I'd be like....ow Mandingo..stealthing it again Mara.... enjoy ya whaskey me dingo camping legend...oooooohhhh yes... you know what I'm talking about.....RIGHTS 👍👍👍👍👍

Love hawthorn!! Great walk even back up towards murton way through the Forrest. Good camp in the summer with a nice fire

Ah I walk past that spot many times. Including this morning and I sat in that very alcove to avoid the rain, which proper came down. Good old Durham coast weather. Would never have known you were there over the weekend. Excellent video as always mandingo. 👍

Great vid yet again. Looks scary tho in that bunkerooni, at least you’ve wee Messy to protect ya. Looking forward to the next one!!!

me and my brother lovely watching the channel

Brilliant video as always mandingo...messi is great tell you what having a 4 legged buddy will be the best friend we will ever have same as with my buddy little terrier...top man you know it makes sense 👍

Live down the coast in Redcar your vids are brill keep it going. Ps like whiskey when get use to working computer stuff send you some beverages. Jr

I’ve just discovered this channel,I love it

First time I've seen your channel I'm hooked 🎉

Another great vid mate always enjoy your content and thanks for the shout out with the whiskey, me and boys at work were buzzing this morning

Cheers Chris another brilliant video sorry I wasn't there Sunday night but off work with flu. Today is the first day I've even been able to watch anything. RIGHTS 👍
