This was a mega highlight from filming the latest season. I will be back. Kidneys mostly intact.
What a cool experience Ashlee! You should go back!
Come out to Glamis Sand Dunes on a holiday weekend! That place gets crzay!
You nailed it. Job well done. 💥💥💥
Thanks for spotlighting such a fun event which is actually central to many in the off-road lifestyle! What a fun ride!
Excellent piece!! I have raced in it twice many many years ago. What an amazing event.
I love these Originals - who ever is behind making them does a great job creating engaging, interesting stories. Hats off to this host also. He's relatable and witty
Thx so much. We have a sweet team that puts these together. They are the best
They ripped off fear and loathing I Las Vegas in the beginning but it was great and perfectly suited
The "Fear and Loathing" feel to the opening sequence.....
Nailed it 🤘😎🤘
You win.
I seen it to.
@@julioalcantera9520I also have eyeholes
... with Special Thanks to Raul Duke...
@@TonyBasuro "The Marginalization of Oscar Zeta Acosta" is an interesting 15 minute read, on Google
Very well narrated and produced video. Thanks for introducing me to King of the hammers
Hummer content?
DDE Ultra4 car is a must! I messaged Michael Essa a while back about this haha
"I almost died and I wanna go back"
You feel alive :)
" Ok, but did you die? "
As someone who has been in the "scene" from the very beginning of KOH on the Pirate4x4 forum, it's a bit surreal seeing the "rest" of the world start to take notice
Same feeling for me, but I don't go to KOH anymore as of 4 years ago because I feel it sucks now, and I definitely will never take my family there. Just too much mayhem and irresponsibility, and that's just in the camping areas lol.
@@meandub Can't they get some security to keep everyone in check.
Member #86 baby ;)
@@farzana6676 you would need some serious security to keep 80k people over thousands of acres "in check"
@@Whitewater11 If you threaten to eject them from the event, people generally start behaving very quickly.
Thanks for hanging with us. See you back 1/18/24? We can shake you up a little more! 💪🏁
I'm in!!!!
@@AshleeVanceHelloWorld"I really appreciated the nod to the almighty Hunter S Thompson in the opening sequence Mr Vance, reallyspecial bit of journo that buddy... " stay twisted peeps😃
Amazingly weird and wonderful content. I didn't know I needed to watch this but it's awesome 😎👍. Great job hosting and filming.
Once you go to hammers you will always want to come back. it is my favorite event. Great coverage!
“350,000 to 500,000 dollars” ... reminds me of a documentary I watched just last week where a British Billionaire said “There’s No Motorsport that’s cheap” ... Great episode as always. And what a poetic ending 🙏
It should remind everyone of Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. If you don't know the reference...Get your life together!
@@scottw5253 The Mint 400🤣🤣
What documentary was it?
AS they say: The best way to make a small fortune off of racing is to invest a large fortune in it!
The last thing I expected when clicking on this video was a "Fear and Loathing" tribute. I'm so glad that I got one.😊
RIP. Jesse combs we miss you at the HAMMER
I grew up in Lucerne Valley off roading and riding trials my whole life it's such a awsome sport and place I'm glad you gave the sport justice. Does anyone think this video was like dust to glory!? It reminded alot about that movie great movie if your a off road nut.
Love the nod to Hunter S Thompson in the opening sequence..."Stay twisted people" 😃
Comparing KOH to burning man is like comparing clint eastwood to Rachel maddow
I had to google Rachel...
Awesome video! So pleased these events still exist.
This is my absolute favorite event every year. 2.5 more months baby!!!
Someone going to die in those camping areas. Alcohol, and no security. Recipe for disaster
It’s probably not for you.
Love the Duke reporting Fear and Loathing style 🎉😂
22:41 "I'm proud of you man..." I felt those words. T)
Good video, thanks for covering this great event.
Scherer is an amazing person! Great video!
Sherererer truly is! What a fun way to feature his passion and dedication!
Great content like always 😊
This series is so awesome! Please make more!
Come to us ruclips.net/p/PLqq4LnWs3olU-bP2R9uD8YXbt02JjocOk
Great intro, love the homage to Hunter!
So good! Well done Gonzo journalism
I prefer real journalism, especially considering this guy couldn't stop making sneak disses about this race, laced in every other description of it when talking about his interviewees.
I saw you and your camera crew walking up into the back door schit-show when that clown in the blue 4 runner almost ran all those people over. You guys did an about face and ran outta there with the quickness. LOL!
Did we embarass ourselves?
@AshleeVanceHelloWorld no, no, not all. Nothing like that. The look on your guys face and the timing of that dude's nonsense is what made it funny. It reminded us (wife and kids) the first time we saw the debauchery of the Hammers' night life and were like WTF?! We've been at it for almost 10 years now and still witness new and crazy shenanigans every time we go out. There is waaaaaay more to this event than the race. In fact, we don't even go for the race, it's not that entertaining compared to everything else there is to do. Hope you guys had fun and will go back next year. Maybe we'll see you there!
Excellent! Very well
Made!
Yes! The kind of people who like the impossible!! See you there.
excellent video!!!
I love that call to fear and loathing in the intro, very nice.
This has a lot of #FearAndLoathing vibes to it…
AND I BACK IT!
“We can’t stop here we are in bat country!”
Hunter, S Thompson vibes I love it!! 😂😂😂
I like the intro reference to Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.
Very nice job. I hope you make another!
When I was 7, my pop took me & my older brother (Jon 10) to the Mint 400 in 1974, it was a wild time back then.. Not as wild a King of the Hammers, but wild enough.
I loved this original. Loved it.
Hell yeah, Ashlee. This is cool stuff. 👍
Now this is journalism at its finest! Dare I say Gonzo?
I do it for you guys. (That's a lie.)
I love the Hunter, S Thompson vibes.
KoH is on the top of my bucket list, has been since it started and was quite small.... I'm an old Pirate 4x4 cat
That opener was priceless.
Great piece
This is now on my bucket list 👏🏻👏🏻👌🏼
That was a great episode
dude i converted non car people to KOH ! just don't bring the kids ...
FANTASTIC video on KOH. Been watching KOH since it began. Awesome job
Loved the fear and loathing reference
What a story! Who knew this existed. Thanks for the entertaining overview. 👍🏼
… america. i almost died, i want to go back!
Hunter would have approved. I imagine he would have loved this!
Well done sir! I loved the HST inspired opening.
I don’t know if it was the goal, but the beginning is incredibly similar to the beginning of fear and loathing in las vegas ❤
Wow what an AMAZING piece of reporting. I can't imagine how cool it is to be there in the no rules world
Hi Ashlee nice to see for your another new post
Learn English
High-quality production. Informative, vivid, and all-around-fun video to share with friends when they ask, "what the heck is KOH?"
that was really well made
Fantastic!
I grew up out there. This is a spiritual extension of the local populations typical behavior on any given Tuesday night.
Wow, great experience
I really hope to make it to at least one of the KOH races before it gets shut down!
Well done short doc! KOH is so sick!
digging this hunter thompson style
Hello World is the best series available online right now.
Got you covered ruclips.net/p/PLqq4LnWs3olU-bP2R9uD8YXbt02JjocOk
Lidar an gps... sooooo wilddd
Bro was just trying to do some off roding😅 16:31
16:32 crazy offroad people. mucha imprudencia.
“Innovation in its most feral form”
@ 3.30 exact scene - Mad Max
As a racing purist, I hate seeing the 80k drunks. One will eventually kill somebody while being stupid . The victims family will sue everybody they can, especially the promoter. It will be the reason KoH ends. I’ve seen it happen more than once in my 50 plus years of off road racing….
Why don't organizers get it under control
They cant really. Its on BLM land, which is virtually impossible to "govern". It would also take a massive law enforcement presence, and they would shut it down before spending that kind of money.@@farzana6676
Nice work dave
Hope you have your attorney and briefcase with you! Lol
Loving the falilv ref at the start
Great video...Banff Film Festival quality for sure!!!
AWWESOME!!
Any one else catch the fear and loathing aspect???
raoul duke vibes love it
“January 6 on wheels” haha there’s some ding dongs there for sure but we all love off-roading and for that reason they’re my people! Awesome video
This dude is having a blast
Every year looking forward to the next KOH!
unlike burning man, if it rained these people would get out
Finally, a reason to go to California lol😂
14:34 NO ONE TOLD ME I WAS IN THIS VIDEO (white hat grey sweatshirt, I did not win the gear bag they gave away for hitting the bell)
Intro is a funny attempt at Hunter Thompson's Gonzo Journalism
I was there!!!
this event is pure american, this is what america looks like.
Hunter s Thompson style love it!!
Now THIS is entertainment!!!!!
Somebody saw fear and loathing a few times 😘
Nice Fear and Loathing Intro...
I didn’t know Americans still there
Truly impressed. Thanks for the great reporting. It gives hope
Do some interviews on the UTV class. I will be racing for the 5th year this kings of hammers in a new UTV. I race in a family team. We will be glad to give you a glance at what we experience also!
Amazing event!Pls tell me the bootyful electro background tune at 18:20 is
Well that's not the Johnson Valley near Yucca Valley, CA. and Lucerne Valley so idk where they think there.
Gonzo journalism at it best. 👏
king of the hummers, increible.
Wow!!!
Fear and loathing in Las Vegas.............................YES
Gonzo Jounalism makes it to RUclips
It was America, I almost died, but I want to go back.
Let freedom ring baby!!!!
