We're more than 10,000 miles away from home!
10 days of extreme off-roading and camping in the Jungle of Malaysia during monsoon season!
Blistering Heat. High Humidity and being exposed to every dangerous animal known to man.
Was it a bad idea or the best Adventure of my life?
@rfcinternationalRFC is short for Rainforest Challenge is an annual race in the jungle of Malaysia during the monsoon season and has been around since 1997! It’s been ranked as the 3rd toughest off-road race in the world and is even in the top 10 of toughest motorized races on the planet! This one in Malaysia is the hardest, biggest and oldest but over the years they’ve created RFC events all over the world.

🚨 This Sunday at 8:00pm eastern time we’re going LIVE here on RUclips and talk about the trip, show you guys unreleased footage and give you a more detailed look of how RFC cars are built! 📺🔥
Definitely build
YES BUILD ONE AND GO PUT THE USA ON THE BOARD 🏁🇺🇲
Sweet see ya then
And then all of a sudden Kumander Daot just respawns.
In later 2010, we got a Suzuki Vitara/Escudo with a LS1 (I think) came in next to our garage and have his full exhaust system custom fabricated .... I think it was for Borneo RFC ... it was mental, loud build ... he drove it from the south end of KL in early dawn to our place which is the furtherst north end part of KL without any form of exhaust 😂😂
I love how you stepped outside of USA to discover how amazing is offroading in other countries. I hope you can continue to report races or offroad events all over the world.
The next international project is already in the editing room 😎
@@FlexRocksRollovers I am glad to hear that. A couple of suggestions to check it out just in case:
- Rally Breslau in Poland. Some high speed stages, but good mudholes too.
- In Brazil: Desafio Cantareira, Transcatarina... There is a lot of mud like clay in Brazil, like Malaysia, but not that hot temperatures.
I’ve heard a lot about the Breslau. I grew up in Germany so that was always fairly close by. I’ll check out the rest as well! Thanks!
@@FlexRocksRolloversi am very impressed on how the locals have track Marshall's in place to prevent unnecessary trail damage, as well as replanting the route afterwards and trash cleanup.
@@FlexRocksRollovers Check out Babod Offroad Festival based in Somogybabod, Hungary every summer. This is the biggest offroad festival in Europe, there are races, challenges, and never ending party! I think one of the best is the same trophies at night.
Hi Guys,
I'm an American and live and work in Saudi Arabia. I understand how tough it is to get sick from food and water outside of your normal. You have now tested how epic your immune system is. This was one of your most epic videos, loved every minute. The team on their side with the driver under water running a winch and driving, OMG WOW. If you like to travel come to visit me, my 4X4 team will take you the route of the Dakar. Ever climbed sand dunes 400 meters high?
Man that would be a dream come true! I’ve always wanted to do that! 🤘
Build it and they will come!!! Let's wheeeeeel!!!
😎☝️ I’m with you on that
Build it
I'm soooo glad someone finally covered this race! I've been curious about it for years, and you did a great job sharing the experience 🤘. I kinda want to build something for this 😁
Thanks bro!!! Let’s chat about it soon 🤙
This would be a great collaboration! I would love to see it!
Sounds like the recipe for an American team.
He’ll yeah 👍 you guys would make a great team
Great video!!! I love this winch challenge racing yall definitely need to build one and show out next year!!
The RUclips Algorithm brought me here. It's my 1st time watching you guys but hey "Selamat Datang ke Malaysia". Very happy that you stumbled upon into our lovely jungle and experience all of this. I'm happy that we Malaysian have one of the toughest route you've seen in life.
Also, why not build up a car and enter it since you've been on the Media team and see how it goes. It's even more fun on the participants ay?
Hope you'll come again to Malaysia.
That was crazy thanks for going and giving us a show
This is the type of event where you will regret joining 5 days in. 2 months later, you will miss it very much and start waiting for next year event.
💯 😄
So stoked to see rfc content from North American perspective. It’s crazy stuff. Those pto godwinches are savage
hi there.. i'm 1 of your followers from malaysia.. ofcourse i'm proud for my country.. and for you.. i'm really happy that you made it here.. please come again and bring your rig.. we cant share our knowledge.. keep it up bro..
Outstanding work : choosing to step outside of your comfort zone in an unknown country, filming in atrocious conditions (heat, leeches, bad sleep and possible food poisoning, and finally some top tier editing !!! I really enjoyed this one because it was something different, but it doesn't mean that all your other stuff isn't good, don't get me wrong !
And of course it would be great to be the first american team, but it will be a hell of a job for the co-driver, running around with the winch all the tile, heck for both of you actually ! Not sure a pink helmer will be enough to help you ;-)
That was wild Marvin. Thanks for the pain you went through to get us that footage.
Приятно было видеть славянские и в особенности, наши, Российские экипажи. Интересно будет посмотреть, что мужики там наснимали и послушать их впечатления от гонки. Ну и по поводу этого видео, хорошая операторская работа и хорошие комментарии!
Обновлю комментарий, досмотрел видео до конца.
Наша команда ещё и победила! Я не сомневался, что ребята займут призовое место, постарались и заняли первое, молодцы! Российскую команду уже второй год не пускают на ралли Дакар, где обычно Российская команда занимала первые места в зачёте грузовиков, ну, не пускают на Дакар, значит, будем побеждать тут) Горжусь вами, Парни!
Владивосток и Сахалин с 2014 года на тумбочке. Забейте Олег Кабалик. У него качественные фильмы про РФС.
@@savyer1000 , спасибо!
I see many videos off road in your channel but this time I really excited to see this video because I from malaysia 🇲🇾 ❤ selamat datang ke malaysia🫶🏻
This was amazing. Didn't know this existed, but I couldn't stop watching. Kudos to you guys for suffering out there to get us this content. Would love to see a US team enter!
Thanks buddy! We had a blast! It was miserable but I'd do it again in a heartbeat!
I wish US team can enter as well. the more the merrier. experience the rainforest in Malaysia
visit Philippiens Sir
@@FlexRocksRollovers
Yes, Malaysia jungle is no joke, especially in monsoon. But its so satisfying.
40:24 that's little Suzuki has an amazing sounding turbo blow off valve sounds so good
some of the best coverage of RFC I've ever seen , absolutely love & respect the effort you guys put in
That was the goal! Thanks for watching 🤘🤘
These competitors are built different
Hands down man one thee badest off-road \ mudding videos I’ve ever seen they truly rip ! I genuinely wish I would have been able to see the rallies with them it had to be insane ! I’ve seen a lot off road 4wd mudding videos enough to be noted I’ve never seen people send there 4WD as hard and just romp threw anything and everything as fast as they can wow truly nuts
I love that at 45 minutes in you all start questioning again whether you can do this and immediately go into you guys loving it. Stay the course boys… as you guys always do ❤
Yes, more of this please. Even if you are not driving. The length of the video is about right. Just personally I wish it was about a half hour longer. Thank you for taking the massive amount of time to share this with us.
Great job, Marvin and team. That was one heck of an adventure! 😀
Thanks Hol’ 🤘 it sure was!
@@FlexRocksRollovers hell yeah. Thanks for the footage
That was absolutely beyond amazing, i have seen some TACOMA builds from Malaysia and they are insane. Thanks for all the hard work you guys did to bring us this race
It's in the top 3 offroad race in the world for a reason,glad you've enjoyed your stay in Malaysia🍻cheers bro
those rigs are unreal..... amazing abilities. TY for bringing us there
This was one of the most entertaining RUclips videos I’ve ever watched and I’m a RUclips junkie. Great work and yes. You should absolutely build a rig for this
Bro ! Amazing video! I've been following your channel since the beginning and also RFC, you two together are incredible! Hats off for u Marvin !
Thank you bro! That’s great to hear! You’ll see Will more often in the future
Thank you! It was an amazing experience and very fun!
Marvin, you definitely need to take part in this race! I'm from Russia and I believe in you! Russia believes in you!!!
🇷🇺 ❤️ thank you!
One off the best 4x4 videos ive seen.
Yes build one
Hell yeah! You guys should pair up with Rory - build one and go!!!
The only issue with Rory is what would he do? Drive or spot/recover? He is incredible in both to the point it would be hard to choose!
Rory should be guiding on build and training for the driver and co-driver. Might want Merlin for teaching the keep it on bouncing off Rev limiter.
Wow what an adventure! Can't believed i was clapping my hands watching on my TV when the rollover vehicle crossed the finish line. Wild!
Reminds me of the Outback Challenge . Really cool, but the Camel Trophy was the mother of these events
Bro, I can’t even! What are these winches? Never seen a winch move so fast! How are these not used at KOH?! Those things fly
I came here to ask that. Crazy fast.
God Winches, PTO driven through to another diff used to spin the winch Spool. The downside is they are a heavy setup which most KOH U4s wouldnt want. Plus they would just about be to fast for the rocks. I"m suprised some of these guys dont have wiplash
Also twin engine 7hp 24 volt warn 8274 simular builds, google Gigglepin winch.
Custom mechanical one called "gods winch"
@Hardwaycreaw👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻вы сила, вы мощь💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻великих побед на дорогах💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻вы супер👍😍😍😍отличный фильм, смотрится на одном дыхании, супер💪🏻🥰🥰🥰ждём на нашем острове Сахалин😅😍😍😍
Been looking forward to this since you announced it last year. That stuff was nuts 🥜 especially Twilight Zone. The adventure of a lifetime!!!
Thanks for the support bro! Much appreciated! This project means a lot to me as I’ve been dreaming about doing this for a long long time! I’m glad you enjoyed the video 🙏
Awesome video. Glad you went and filmed it so We don't have to go.
I keep hearing that 😂😂🐍
Dude! I need to see more of this content! You guys are legends. Everyone. Great efforts. Keep up the great work.
yeah!!!! build one, and win the race! greets from germany, and thanks for the great video❤
What a refreshing hydration drink you got there..the legendary Tiger😂
Cracking quality content. Good to see the conditions you guys have to contend with in the jungle.
Great video Marvin! Thx for you and your buddy posting this Brutal challenge! Stay safe!
Man I have been wheelin my whole life, still do and this type of stuff hypes me up! makes me want to be more active and relevant in this off-road world of today. Awesome video.
Really enjoyed this Marvin! Great job on the coverage! Mad respect for both of your dedication!!!
Thanks!
as a malaysian i would say welcome to malaysia, the monsoon season is danger but it is fun also, good to see you guys come to malaysia jungle to film this event.
my suggestion for your next trip in the rainforest is a minifan+power bank combo. having some wind flow in the tent makes a huge difference in the jungle with 90+ humidity. last time, we moved a hospital's furniture into a 30km deep jungle village with 6 hiluxes, with only tyre mods, others in factory settings(lead car is an off road mod single cab ones that did most of the heavy lifting). Malaysian jungle is harsh, especially the humidity.
Beyond impressed you guys toughed it out and stayed the entire thing. Was an amazing watch I was glued to the screen the entire time!
Love this, respect to everyone that is competing and all the officials helping.
I've been wondering where the flex rocks and rollovers team was, this was well worth the wait, thank you for taking this challenge and letting us all experience this with you!
All the turbo blow off valve whistles in this video are awesome.
Hell yes send it!!! I don't know how you guys did it but I'm glad you did much respect!!!
I'm a Land Rover Defender guy and have been watching challenge videos for years. It's soo awesome to see you go there!!
WELCOME TO MALAYSIAAAAA YAYYY finally you came to our country
For all you went through i liked and subscribed! You earned that much!!
Look at me I’m the captain now 😂 one of the best off-road videos I’ve seen on RUclips. Very entertaining what an awesome adventure 👍
Holy crap thats some gnarly terrain. Major props for hanging in there and toughing it out. 100% need to build & race one of those rigs.
Glad you have an epic time here in Malaysia, food here is fantastic, come again and bring your friends along!!! the more the merrier!
Great job everyone from Rollovers to editors, police to schedulers. keep it up!

That was amazing to watch... Thank you for your awesome work....
So awesome you guys are showing this competition! I've been watching these comps for years. These guys are hard core! It would be awesome to see you guys cover some other off road competitions around the world. The Kiwis and Icelanders have some pretty wild competitions too, as do the Aussies and they're all completely different.
Oh good to know! We got more coming 🤙
Was awesome meeting you guys out in Malaysia! Love how you've put this together 😁
Same here buddy! It was a pleasure! I’m hooked on your channel btw. - love your adventures! Keep it up 🤙

That was insane. The heat and moisture. For an arctic norwegian, I would not have made it a single day. Oh yeah, the driving was insane too. Fantastic.
