      It was a sensational trip! My laptop literally got stolen yesterday, so I am hoping that A; I have the footage from the trip still and B; I get a new laptop this week so I can edit the video! I’m completely shattered after everything last night so let’s hope I can get back on my feet soon

    Congrats on another great video. Well done for continuously creating great content, great story telling, and for never slowing down. You deserve all the success you receive. You literally earn it every time you set up a tripod to film a cupboard opening, when you get out the car, drive back round, drive past to film your car then drive back again to fetch your camera, AND when you sift through hours of footage just so you can give us the good bits.
    Thanks for the continuous class and inspiration. My channel is tiny compared to yours but from a fellow RUclipsr, well blimmen done!

    Snorkel! Good idea! (Don't know why but reminded me of a movie from the 90s where a guy drove his Porsche 928 into a river. Next scene, the mechanic comes out to speak to the driver, "Okay, so who's the U-Boat commander?")
    Here in Malaysia, where we get rain like every day, Ram air type intake on the snorkel can be a concern. I've seen pick-ups with similar type intakes swivel it 180 degrees to face backwards. This is just to prevent rain from being sucked in. Not sure how well it works though.
