I still can't believe we managed to pass him through airport security... like.... really.

GHAHAHAHA the security person demanding he doesn't open his eyes! Such great sports.
You should go to Slovenia next it's a pretty cool country, It is pretty small but it is very diverse and it's overall climate is similar to that of New Zealand.
Absolutely zero concern from security and border control haha
Please come to the Balkan next ❤️
Who is the girl with you?? We want to see more or her 😊
I was the tour guide on that first tour there where Thomas was blindfolded and just want to say meeting them was amazing! They were so lovely and positive on and off the camera such genuine people, keep spreading positivity!
QUEELAN! How are you?! Thank you again for taking such good care of us. We loved your energy and seem like everyone else did too! Hope to see you again someday. ❤
@@SeekDiscomfort Queelan and Thomas swap lives WHEN??
Please swap lives, please.
@@SeekDiscomfort swipe livesss! He had the perfect energy!
Queelan, we love you! Please swap lives with Thomas!
"Look over to your right and you'll see... a bunch of stuff..." Best line
His reaction was priceless. I`m so happy for him, he deserved this.
So deserving!!
For the man who spends his life making others dreams come true, this was truly deserving. Thomas has such a good heart, this is such a great gift
you pretty much copied 11:18
I did not signed up to cry ... when Thomas opened his eyes and gasped ... I lost it ❤
We honestly didn’t expect that to be his reaction. We were all crying. 🥹❤️
Same!! 😭😭😭
@@SeekDiscomfort that was absolutely BRILLIANT!!! 🤗💙✌
Me too!
Same and I'm 40 😂
The moment where Thomas opened his eyes was so magical, I was crying alongside him. So sweet 🥲
😭 SAME
It's good thomas's favourite movie was not "The Martian"
Or 20,000 leagues under the sea
😭😭😭😭
They would have went to jordan
I feel like these guys could somehow have made that happen too 😄🙌🏽
Ahhaha
Just love how everyone of the airport staff were with them
"Welcome to place undisclosed!" is the purest thing ever
Platonic friendships are so important. These are loving, supportive, quality friends. All young men need this desperately right now. May all of you find friends like these!
I genuinely did not expect him to react that way. It was such a beautiful moment and im glad he got to share it with all of us ❤
5:52 I laughed out loud when I heard Stefan say, “a security person is just a friend you haven’t met yet” 😂🤣 Mr. Positivity!
The guide at the shire was so chill, you guys should definitely swap lives haha
I would love to see that! A combo of a behind the scenes look at Hobbiton and the tour guide can go on a classic Yes Theory adventure
We need more likes for this to happen! We need this
yessss i would love to watch that
Of ALL the adventures Thomas has had in his adult life, this one made him cry tears of joy. How adorable! I had no idea I would be crying over a SD video!
Love how Thomas was transported back to such a state of childlike wonder emotion and vulnerability in that moment after what must have been and excruciating build-up. This could easily have been a main channel episode, loved it.
I love how game everyone was, from the flight attendants, to the tour guides, to the people on the tour!
I still can’t believe Steffan wasn’t an original member of the group! Such an amazing person always laughing and smiling.
They just hadn't found him yet. So glad they, did he's a walking embodiment of Yes Theory 😁
I don't know of anybody will read this, but knowing now that The Lord of the Rings are Thomas' favorite movies of all time, I can really see the influence they may have had on the concept of Yes Theory. You have the the big adventure, the fellowship of friends that grows bigger with every connection made along the way, and trying to leave the world a better place than you found with an open heart full of hope and love...
I've also loved these movies since childhood, and seeing Thomas take off the blindfold to suddenly see Bag End right in front of him for real, made me cry happy tears. I hope I get to go there someday as well, but if I don't succeed at it, I'm glad I got to watch this video and feel the joy through these guys.
I've watched Thomas' reaction three times and tears welled up each time. His reaction alone was worth every bit of effort you guys put into making this happen for him.
this speaks volumes about the power of intention. Y'all made it through customs in TWO countries. I love how a customs agent recognizes you. And Thomas! That was huge trust factor. He knows his friends well. I got emotional when he took off his blindfold
I managed to find you guys! Me and my cousin were on the same tour! Dez took our picture outside of Bag End! ❤ What a day, and what an amazing thing you did!
Hi again!
I was working in New Zealand for a bit and decided to go to the Hobbiton solo. Now I didn’t know who he was at the time. Thomas approached me and we had a really good chat but imagine my face when he was telling me how his friends blindfolded him and surprised him with this trip😃. I honestly didn’t believe it but here we are. They were such an amazing, fun and genuine group of people. I can briefly see myself in the dancing montage so I’m so glad they filmed and captured this night.
His reaction was the best and most wholesome thing I've ever seen 😄
I’m lucky enough to work at The Green Dragon Pub at Hobbiton! Best job in the world. I’m so glad you guys enjoyed it so much ❤️
Thomas made 90% of people cry😢❤
What happened to the other %10 ?
@@Neo-zp9ng they probably busy somewhere else😂
I literally started crying before he even took the blindfold off haha. Was so excited for him! I wish a friend would do something like this for me. Welcome to NZ, bud!!!
It's about time Thomas' gets his dream come true. I was crying seeing how genuinely happy his reaction was ❤
I’ve honestly had a really hard couple of weeks but seeing this made me genuinely smile for the first time in a long time. The moment when he took off his blindfold made me gasp and smile so incredibly big! You guys are amazing friends for doing this for him.
I did not expect this video to make me so emotional. Thomas does so much for others, so open, selfless, and kind. To see his wonderful friends reciprocate that back to him on his dream trip and his reaction…. truly priceless❤❤ Thomas I hope you know how deserving you are of this🥰 good job guys!!
Thomas has done so many amazing things out of the kindness of his heart.
He deserves every bit of this!
That initial reaction to seeing Hobbiton for the first time, is about as genuine as a reaction as you can possibly get. You guys truly went above and beyond for Thomas. What a great moment! A perfect example of when you feed your circle with positive energy, that circle will feed you back. You guys have a great circle to count on. 👌
new zealand truly deserves its own episode!! we often get overlooked but we are such a neat lil country
Well, was not expecting a real tear on my part when Thomas took the blindfolds off.. What a moment..
If you have ever watched LOTR or read those books, you can absolutely feel how amazing of a surprise this must have been for Thomas. I have tears watching him in awe. I can't wait to visit the Shire myself.
Thomas's inner child unleashed. I've never seen him so happy, like in this video.
Great job! Best friends ever!
I am crying. ❤. This was so beautiful. When Thomas gasped… MY EYES IMMEDIATELY BEGAN LEAKING
This was probably one of my favorite videos that you guys have ever done. I could not stop laughing the entire way through and did NOT expect his reaction to be so emotional and heartwarming.
I'll recommend that you guys go to Mongolia to spend days with nomads and explore their way of life.
So happy for Thomas, lord of the Ring is one of my favorites. I am glad to know that they preserved the set, wish to go there someday.
you guys really DID THAT. the best editors and friends
😂 Loved the Thomas' POV shots. Really interesting to get some insight into what he was seeing
Seeing Thomas's reaction was priceless. Having been to the Shire myself I can also totally understand it. I almost cried and I actually knew I would be going there. The whole movie set just has such a beautiful and serene feeling.
the best one ever.. to see Thomas reaction like that , wowww
Seeing Thomas cry hit me a lil different I have no reason why.
Watching Thomas cry like a child in my home country of Aotearoa is the best….so glad you guys tricked and surprised him …and gave him such joy…it’s well deserved…a shout out to all the folks who played along with the secret. 😊😊🐑🐑🇳🇿🇳🇿NZ
What a beautiful and magical moment, experiencing the real and raw joy and emotions from Thomas was beautiful and brought me to tears. Your channel brings me on experience I will never get to have but you all give us the opportunity to see the world in a new way and find our own ways to Seek Discomfort!
Thank you for doing this.
I would love to see you travel anywhere. I always enjoy when people show us the hidden dema of the world and even the US.
I would love to have Thomas talk us though his experience of this trip and his thoughts along the way.
What are your top memories from the trip?
I didn’t expect him to cry that much, it was so beautiful to watch. This trip looked like a dream!
That gasp at 12:05 is everything
Right 😭 I’ve listened to that gasp 100x
Made me cry 😢 surprise so well done!!
Was not expecting to cry over this, but as a massive LotR fan myself seeing Thomas's wonder when he opened his eyes... HERE COME THE WATERWORKS - what an incredible surprise!
I hope you all had an AMAZING time here in Aotearoa New Zealand. What ya'll did for your friend is 1 of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. Thomas definitely deserved this after all of the things he has done for everyone that has crossed his path. Well done team. Also well done to everyone that participated getting him from Aussie to Matamata (Hobbiton)
I keep rewatching his reaction & every time I cry, it never fails 😭
Thomas’ smile was so genuine, feels like it had been a while, such a relief to see it!
i didnt think that seeing thomas turn into a little kid out of pure happiness would make me cry
when he started crying my ass started crying dawg i’ve been watching y’all since 2016 i’ve seen most of it and this video was a huge step stone no one has rlly ever done anyone for him and he doesn’t do anything for himself but this was beautiful this the kinds living i wanna consist my life of
LOTR trilogy is the best trilogy of all time. I'm glad Thomas was able to go from pissed off to super happy and speechless in a matter of seconds. I also would love to go to the Shire someday!
PLEASE do this with more people, the reaction of passengers, airport security and air hostesses was freaking adorable, and pretty much the whole team diserves their dream vacation
Crying of spontaneous happiness, with sobs and weird faces, especially not caring what people around you think of, is the most releasing thing could ever happen in someone's adult life. 🤗 I am super glad you guys captured this amazing reaction and gave us back that feeling of unconditional happiness, that most of us keep locked inside our inner child. 🥰Thank you for this beautiful episode. Love from Bucharest.
This is amazing. I live in New Zealand and love that you guys came here. It was so awesome to see Thomas' face when he realised where he was, even I shed a couple of tears. What an amazing surprise.
What a special bunch of people you guys are ❤
His smile was priceless 😊
It was such a special honour to share in Thomas's moment of pure gratitude. Well done team! I cried like a baby and got the emotional uplift I didn't know I needed. So many blessings to all of you!!! And much, much LOVE!
I remember seeing bits and pieces of this journey unfold on their Instagram story. Super excited to see the full video!
I love that the whole bus tour was hanging back to watch this moment, too
Guys I swear, you should come back in the Philippines!!! No idea what the editors would do here but you'll definitely not regret coming back here!!!
We want to!! Two of our newer editors are Filipino! Hopefully soon 🤞🏽🇵🇭
@@SeekDiscomfort Ohhh glad to hear that!!! See you soon, hopefully hahaha. Love you guys ❤️
This one is magical, that look of pure joy on Thomas’ face was such a beautiful moment to witness. 😊
Beautiful reaction from him!
Would love to see you explore Canada! Rocky mountains, poutines, hockey..who needs more??
That was the greatest reaction. You guys are all amazing. The meaning of true friendship (doing such a nice thing, and having the trust in friends to be isolated for 24 hours). Awesome video.
Dang, you guys always come up with such heartwarming ideas.
The moment he opened his eyes and realized the location, this kind of happiness and emotion, absolutely priceless.
Yes, i had goosebumps and tears. So happy for him.
I just can't get over this moment at 7:37 when it looks like Thomas was flexing
Wow! That was just unbelievable, I can't believe I cried when he finally took his blind fold off and saw what all the amazing friends managed to achieve. So deserved and Absolutely Wonderful Guys :) Massive Love and Hugs from Scotland :)
63 yo man here, been watchin u guys for yrs now gotta say the tears for joy when Thomas opened his eyes,, im not into the hobbit stuff but to see Thomas lit up,,, means so much as hes done so much for a positive movement in this world and other people,,heres to yes theory and seek discomfort ✌️❤
🥹🥹🥹🥹 happy tears. So happy you guys did this for him. Y’all are amazing friends and I literally cried seeing his reaction. It was everything and more! Can’t wait to see more adventures next!
I’m so happy to see Thomas so happy. Thank you all for making it happen 🎉
Literally balling my eyes out for you Thomas! 😢 I’m originally from Aotearoa but have lived in London for the last 9 years! NZ is now a piece of you bro! Welcome home Nau mai Haere mai
You know he is a big fan when he instantly knew where they were. His reaction is priceless.
I came here from the 2 videos about the wolf sanctuary and together with this one... i have been crying for almost an hour and a half. You are amazing People. Amazing Human beings. Amazing Examples. Thank you!
He's so deserved this! What a great person and great youtuber he is😁
I'm so happy Thomas got to experience this. He so deserved this.
Had to see it 2 times in one go. A fantastic "anything is possible" story. The fab cooperation of everyone who crossed your path, you guys intended love, and you got supported by love all the way through. So beautiful, and the high peek when Thomas sees the outcome of the long blindfold struggle, that he is in his dream, to witness his reaction is priceless. I am going to rewatch this many more times for sure. Well done you guys, congrats! 💖💖💖💖💖💖
So freakin awesome-Thomas deserved it-what awesome friends yall are. I was in tears seeing his reactions much love from Richmond Va
You guys act like your terrible at surprises but look at Thomas! You guys always seem to reach new heights! So beautiful
I don't know what is better. To finally be in the place you've been dreaming of or group of friends who love you this much and glad to get through all the struggles to make you happy 👍🏻
That was pure GENIUS! I was touched by Thomas reaction and cracked up laughing at his grumpiness Thank you for always cheering up my days with your videos! 😘
I absolutely bawled with Tom! Watching Yes Theory since before Seek Discomfort started, you all became family! Tom has definitely reached full Discomfort with the blind traveling... but this video is the perfect example of your brand! Force yourself to be uncomfortable to get that amazing award in the and!
it would be amazing if they swap lives, he was literally so sweet and spontaneous to say yea!!!!!!
YES! Revenge of the Editors! Please do this again...to Thomas...to many places becasue his reactions are priceless. And to all amazing people who helped you along the way - who knew border patrol could be so accommodating and nice! Awesome job folks x
THIS WAS SO EPIC THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ON THE MAIN CHANNEL!!! LOVE IT
This had me sobbing. Thomas does so much for so many people this is so cool to have something so special done for him! We love you Thomas!!
Thomas always reach his limits to make content for us bless this man
seeing him cry made me cry, he’s so deserving of something like this
God, I wish I had friends like these. Well, I wish I had friends. I am very happy for Thomas. 😍
Same. Literally same.
I saw Thomas reaction and then I felt and emotion of happiness and I ended up crying... you are incredible as people and as friends.
This might have been my favorite episode yet! Well, deserved Thomas!! ❤
Awwww, Thomas got to let his inner child come out and play. So cute. No parachute jumps, or mountain climbs. 🥰💙
Love how Thomas didn’t even question how they did it😂
I’ve never had a video make me feel so good. I’m so happy for him, and it gives me hope to know that there are true friends like that in the world. Thanks guys.
HOLY SHIT I was not prepared to cry for the last half of this. This was beautiful. This team has fulfulled so many dreams but to see one of Thomas' achieved was intensely emotional.
Man I'm so happy for New Zealand
Oh, and for Thomas too.
Oh, and for Steffan becoming a permanent member of the team, like I suggested in a comment time ago.
I'm just happy for everything
His reaction was so worth it 😂
Such a beautiful experience, could really see how much this meant to Thomas! So glad your dreams were met in our beautiful country!
kefs made me cry uce - hope you and team explore more of the South Pacific to experience the unique stories of navigating the greatest ocean and cultures of Polynesians, Melanesians and Micronesians
