Fake Billboard Stealth Camping
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 июн 2023
- Crazy Neighbor and I built a #fake #billboard and put it up on the side of the highway to camp behind it. Was a great camping trip aside from a little bit of highway noise. One of the billboards was for onion burgs which are a camping standby meal for me, so you can probably guess what's for dinner!

We are watching a classic right now! Steve you've outdone yourself!
I second that. Steve is a legend.
Top quality Steve, again!😊
This guy knows
I concur.
Awesome!!! You've outdone yourself!!!
LOL, "Camping - it's closer than you think" is sheer brilliance!
One of your best stealth stunts ever!
“Closer than you think” yeah it’s right there 😂😂
Genius
I didn't even get it until you mentioned it, incredible.
It’s perfect lol
Hey Steve, I have camouflage nets for all season. I've camped around highways, farmlands, etc. Noise-Cancelling earbuds are amazing on busy main roads. Thermal goggles are awesome. I'm 65. I know 😂😂
In the last year of Crazy Neighbor’s life, you two went on this wild adventure together. The friendship you two had makes me smile, and I’m glad he got to do this with you.
R.I.P. crazy neighbor we absolutely adored him and the energy he brought to these videos, said to hear of his passing
People driving past going “wow these billboards are getting realistic, it’s like I can actually smell those Onion Burg’s” 💗
They could actually smell Steve, too! He's closer than they knew!
Lol😅
😊
This comment made me bust!! Lmao😂😂😂
@@FatalChaz33 Both yours and the original comment are really hilarious.
Crazy Neighbour, disguises, a billboard... what more could anyone possibly want in a video?? Thanks Steve!
Don’t forget the onion burgs!
And the real shop behind them... lol . Bushyboy Oz.
step 2 woulda been nice but i wont be the one to say anything...
@@denniscrane9753 boiled Burger lol
For added effect, photograph the place of the camping, and put up that photo of empty space , and camp behind it ! :-)
If you notice, one of the many things that make Steve and Crazy Neighbor so enjoyable is their manners. They are polite to each other. Its refreshingly positive. Never underestimate the power of politeness!
Canadians can't help it.
Very Canadian!
Just as an A'mercan screams Hell Yeah!
weird, nice Canadians.
Canadians are like that, the most I seen.
I always love seeing crazy neighbor in the videos. He’s such a cool, laid back guy. Very endearing to see you two having fun together like this!
Glad you enjoyed!
What a freaking legend.... camping behind a sign of himself. Bravo
Agreed. Literally put up a sign "This is what I'm doing, right here, right now." SMH ... in admiration. Stealth through obviousness. er. something.
Are you the TC Williams? The tattoo artist.
@Tom G I apologize sir, I am not
An opening with Steve and Crazy Neighbour in “disguises”. You just know this is going to be a classic 😂
Absolutely! Instant classic
Crazy neighbor is the perfect companion
Can we all appreciate how much of a good friend crazy neighbor is, always loyal to steve and ready to help on my behalf thank crazy neighbor always there thru the good and thru the bad 🙏🏽
If he has a neighbor, that implies he has a place to live, so why exactly is he stealth camping?
Mayonnaise
@@SniffHeinkel for his RUclips channel are you dense ?
@@SniffHeinkel it's recreational, dude clearly loves doing it and it's pretty harmless.
“Unintelligible crazy neighbor mumbling”
Steve: “ excellent”
He's quite the wordsmith
@@campingwithsteve it’s probably just my lack of ear smithing I have little experience with the exotic dialects of Canada
The “Camping, it’s closer than you think” billboard is pure genius!
and he used a picture of himself! incredible
That was my thought. It also really made me laugh!
The whole camping is closer then you think while camping behind it is pure irony and I love it😂
well if you see that sign you know it's just Steve and crazy Neighbor camping again🤣
cause camping it's closer then you think
Rest in peace crazy neighbor. ❤Thank you for bringing so much joy and happiness to everyone. Gone but never forgotten 😢
this is pure genius. not just the basic idea, but the fact that you made the billboard basically give away what you are doing by insinuating "it's closer than you think" and included an image of yourself in it. so clever, so cool
Steve and Crazy Neighbor are the epitome of Just Two Dudes Being Bros
Couple guys being fellas
@@dukeofdixielandjust a couple of fellas who are friends
I can just imagine someone driving by with their windows open, reading the onion burg sign, and thinking, "I can almost smell them!"
😂😂😂
Those onion burgs looked good! I just wish he said what the first 2 packets were that went into the crock pot.
Probably onion soup mix. It's beef "broth" based
Good one!
😂😂❤
Rest in Peace Crazy Neighbor. You're a true friend not only to Steve, but to your subscribers as well. God bless.
"They require permits, and we don't roll that way."
Pure chaos.
Crazy Neighbor is just one of the best friends a guy could ever ask for
Definitely. And what better person to have a friend like that than Steve. They are so wholesome.
Glen is Steve's best friend hands down, aways there for each other there almost like brothers at this point.
Everyone needs a friend like Crazy Neighbor.
He is a true treasure!
Steve and Crazy Neighbour enjoying fireflies together is the kind of wholesome content I needed today
Amen to that.
💯
Your name is incredible
Exactly! This is a beautiful video.
The banter between Steve and crazy neighbour is timeless
They both have great manners.
The “camping, its closer than you think” billboard is genius really
"Camping - it's closer than you think"
Pure genius, man. That's gosh damn hilarious.
Steve has just raised the bar to an untouchable level
Yes
More likes for this.
Really, untouchable
Next level is ''camping on a fake highway'' and he perceeds to build his own highway xD
hes been there this is nothing new.. i mean except the new concept hahahaha but hahahaha hes always been untouchable imo
No pun intended 😂
We will miss you so much crazy neighbour, so much love and prayers being sent to all of your loved ones. Especially you Steve, you have been through so much since I have been watching your channel. 😢
Definitely. I am praying for those things, too. These losses do not come without blessings.
This was super cool! If you ever wish to do another billboard camp like this, a way you can be even more stealthy ironically is to have lights on the outside lighting up the billboard. It'd do well to hide any lights behind the billboard so you'd be free to turn on any flashlights for cooking or even just to have on in general :)
"Camping, It's closer than you think" is EPIC trolling. Thanks Steve (and Crazy Neighbour)!
Steve is "stealth camping" behind a billboard which says "Camping" and has a picture of him on it. GOLD!!!
It also said "It's closer than you think" Oh yes it is, like right behind the sign.
Illusionist stealth camping
David French the type of guy that explains a simple joke everyone already gets.
RIP Crazy Neighbor. I'm sure going to miss you!!!!!😢😢😢❤❤❤❤
"i dont snore, i purr" 😂Crazy neighbor we love you too
Steve and Crazy Neighbour,the perfect example of what happens when a couple of guys are left unsupervised
Huge mistake though. When they reattached the billboard to the roof of the car they didn't pat it twice and say 'That's not going anywhere.'
Gloriously so.
Go! Go! Go! Go! They're right behind us!
I think you mean a couple of sociopaths?
@@le_th_So you think camping behind a fake billboard constitutes diagnosing a cluster b personality disorder?!?
I smiled the entire time while watching this. Fake billboard, Crazy Neighbor, step twos, FOOD, fireflies, geocaching, littering at your friends establishment, oh I almost forgot Crazy Neighbors purring! Seriously an awesome fun video. I loved it! Thanks Steve and Crazy Neighbor!😂
😉
I do agree 100%! These two have no idea the happiness they bring some of us. And yes I'm especially talkin about myself.
@@campingwithsteve ,I’m desperate to see that 5 day camping on the river boat,with a solar generator ,maybe A frame top, white Christmas lights in the Aframe boat,those videos are the best,you and crazy neighbor make those videos one of a kind.
Purring ❤😂
Maybe it's just cuz I'm an American, but these guys satisfy the same itch that the Trailer Park Boys did in their prime. It's not fictional, but it's in that same wholesome yet greasy wheelhouse.
Love the channel Steve, stay safe bud. 👍
I've binged through the entire "Stealth Camping" playlist over the last days and noticed a fun fact: every time Crazy Neighbor appeared in an episode, he has always thrown up his arms as a greeting. In *every single episode* he appeared in. I call that consistency!
The definition of crazy is doing the same thing over and over, expecting a different result
I’ve seen one where he didn’t do that and I thought to myself weird…
As sad as this is, this is such a testament to the friendship you had, to be able to relive so many wonderful events, rest easy crazy neighbour ❤
True. This friendship is more fun to watch than Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn
What an episode! Fake billboards, fireflies, geocaching, Crazy Neighbor's "I don't snore, I purr" This is the stuff! Thank you Steve!
It's a Fake!!!!!
@@raven4k998 You can tell, by the cross-section. 🏺
Canada needs to make Steve an ambassador of tourism and commerce he is a GD national treasure. Steve, Jess is looking down on you and smiling and thinking you will be okay...you will be OK
Steve, get an ebike with fat tires. I have hip and knee problems and cycling without too much pressure on joints is good. It has made all the difference for me and I’m able to go many places with it and see so much more. I put tannus armor inside tires to make them just about puncture proof. I’ve seen many older folks (I’m 67 this month) on e-bikes and they all love being able to get out there. I’ve seen several people with RUclips channels who ebike in the woods, etc. I’m happy that my husband has recently joined me on the class 2 ebike (has a throttle and pedal assist. He has COPD so it is delightful seeing him enjoy life with me. I love your little camper! It’s perfect! Thanks for all your hard work and shares. May God bless you wherever you adventure to! 💙🙏🏼💙
Not a bad idea!
Hey Steve, I'm a new fan of your channel! Normally this isn't my kind of content but your demeanor and ingenuity are amazing! Even though you're fighting your own battles, you're out here bringing warmth and positivity to strangers. You're an incredible person, man.
Cringe
Steve , I just wanted to say that your videos are like comfort food. No matter how bad my depression or anxiety is getting to me, your camping vids always provide a safe space to chill and hang out.
Thanks so much man, and take care of yourself!
@@campingwithsteve You're welcome, and thank you for the content! Will do, and you as well!
Likewise. I'm going through a tough time in life at the moment. Steve's channel really cheers me up.
@@johnkelly1083 So sorry, God bless you with strength.
Me too ❤
Camping - it’s closer than you think. 😂😂😂
😂
That was wonderful and very creative.
Genius 🙌
I have been a casual viewer for the past year or so, and I gotta say I enjoy seeing crazy neighbor! nice to see your personalities mixing, makes it really interesting!
The relationship between Steve and Crazy Neighbor is the most wholesome thing.
God Bless these two for having each other and supplying us top notch comfort/entertainment in the process of just being some solid buds.
they have become litterbugs nooo
It’s only a matter of time before Steve is doing a stealth camp in a 24 hour Walmart furniture section.
I was thinking he should stealth camp in a mattress store. Can he do it? Well, can he? Hmmm....
This needs to be a thing
🤣💛
Stealth camp in an ikea staged bedroom lol
Yes yes yes
Light hearted sarcasm with Steve & crazy neighbor is always welcome 😂
Steve and Crazy Neighbor are so wholesome together. You never see neighbors like that anymore.
Steve and Crazy Neighbor are going from stealth camping, to becoming the stealth camp itself. Truly one of the greatest character development arcs of all time. The writers of this show never cease to amaze us. :)
I love the part when you were explaining the fake billboard, and your neighbour chimes in and says, ‘But it’s a GOOD fake billboard!’ as if you’d hurt his feelings 😂
_"it's a professionally built fake sign"_ - *crazy neighbor 2023*
Loved it! Excellent. One of the best yet! Thank you Steve and Crazy Neighbor!
I learned while I was a delivery driver for an industrial supply company that if you're wearing a high viz vest, carrying a clipboard, and walking like you belong somewhere, you can go ANYWHERE, and no one will bat an eye.
Theres been insidents where whole apartment has been robbed empty, clean rental truck, guys wearing overalls and working like they belong there.
Once even a neighbourg talked to one of the robbers few minutes, and couldn't tell how they looked.
People don't notice things if they are not weird.
There once were some robbers who drove delivery truck to a supermarket loading dock and went in while workers had a cig.
They loaded truck and drove away.
I think it took several days until anyone notised what had happened.
Mostly it surpriced me how little workers care about people who are in storage area of a large market, I once rodealong on bakery delivery truck. We delivered to small markets and large supermarkets, I didn't have any working clothes on and none asked why the earth there is some random dude walking around in storage area in civilian clothes. And most odd was that store workers just let you in when you walk to the door with enough confident.
@@felixchauspfft, ain't no one pays us enough to care...when I worked at Target there were always people we weren't aware of, in our loading bay. Coke representatives, Pepsi representatives, FritoLay, our return warehouse trucks, regular stock trucks, and our special items deliveries (bikes usually)
Workers get so used to seeing random people in there, we usually never question it and tbh we don't get paid enough to care 😂
" I don't snore, I purr." Great line! The fake billboard idea is ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT! Love your vids. This one is a classic.
And he will be purring pretty heavy tonight, lol. 😂
it's a professionally built fake sign
Steve, you have won over another new viewer in me. You are clearly such a good, humble bloke. Keep it up mate. Love the videos :)
I’m sad most of the time but not when I watch a camping with Steve episode Steve is such a good man and seems like a person ide love to share a beer with and talk
Always good to see Crazy Neighbor and Steve together. What a great creative idea! Cheers Steve and Crazy Neighbor!
Wait, which ones crazy?
And this is why Steve is the father of stealth camping. Well done bud, well done.
Pure gold Steve and Crazy Neighbor! Pure gold! Can't say it enough- You guys are awesome! Keep up the great work! Cheers!
This was so fun and creative! Thank you for all you do for us Steve and Crazy Neighbor!
Always look forward to your videos, Steve!
Camping behind a picture of yourself camping is matrix level brilliance
Meta AF.
@@G2_Shane Meta indeed. Inception achieved...
lol! for real.
I had tears when I saw it. He's too cool for RUclips haha
I need more Steve in my life. What an absolute legend. Thanks for sharing this awesomeness.
What a great "self stealth" structure. I'm impressed that you and Crazy Neighbor are both Geocachers!
What a hoot! I started in 2013 as a way to get out of the house and get some exercise. Good to see you are helping promote the world wide sport of Geo Caching!
Genius! Man Steve we appreciate all you do to make your videos the best!
Shout out to crazy neighbour for being the mate Steve deserves and needs. I know times haven’t been the easiest for Steve but I’m sure it all feels just that little bit more bearable having someone around who’s a good bloke. Good on ya Crazy Neighbour
That was great! You guys worked really hard on this one. A big thanks to crazy neighbor for being Steve’s partner in crime.
Quite literally!
This was absolute genius! More like this Steve! I love it when his quirky wit and sense of humor merge so perfectly with his love of stealth camping.
Every time you upload is a good day. Camping with Steve is one of my favorite things to watch to just chill out, especially after a hard week.
It occurs to me that Steve is one of those guys that never outgrew 'fort building'.
Aww, you must be new 😂
No guy really does, some are just better at hiding it than others.
@@masterp2269 No. I've been subscribed for years.
Steve you and crazy neighbor deserve a Grammy for the best stealth camping video of the year
Google "Grammy"...I think you mean something else. Lol😂😂😂
haha. Runners up also include Steve Wallis, and Steve Wallis.
The best of the best!! Thank you for all the awesome content, Mr. Wallis!
Good to see you again Steve love these videos helps me get through some of my boring days at work and I almost feel like I'm getting a little adventure myself
It drives me crazy that this is all happening in my general neighborhood. It makes me always wonder if at any given moment Steve is back in town, could be camping behind my house for all I know.
Sorry, that was me. Would you like me to move on???
@@jengoodwyn2715 All depends on how many step 2's you have and your willingness to share.
Behind your house? He's probably camping right under your bed. That purring noise you heard was Crazy Neighbor.
You better check your yard 😂
@@LAharlinthought I smelled burgers cooking. Lol
Your creativity knows no boundaries!! I think you can officially crown yourself the godfather of stealth camping!
Not ""practicle stealth camping " More like rchestrated click bait stunts"
Aw Steve you looking healthier and happier than I seen in a long time - that's great ❤ super video! Loved it!
This has been my favorite so far. So awesome you brought your neighbor! Loving it!
you’ve transcended stealth camping and created a whole new “hiding in plain sight” camping category!
I tried something similar growing weed. Huge huge fail. 😅
He's styling. He's becoming too powerful.
@@Renovegas6109 Yeah they've got thermal cameras to see how much heat is coming from your property, we read a case about it in law. Guy ended up losing in court since they got the "thermal scan" while they were off his property. Been around for a long while too now.
Camping in plain sight Lmao
if you can't hide, hide the people
As someone who works in signage, designs signs, and worked himself up from being an installer - this has got to be my favorite video of yours yet lol. Seeing you and Crazy Neighbor put together that vsign brought back so many memories of driving out to the most remote locations in the county and putting up signs that 99.99% of people would never even think about. One of the most thankless jobs where the only sense of pride is annoying your friends on car-rides by saying "See that 8x8 sign out there? I put that up at 4pm on a Friday while getting assaulted by mosquitos!" lol. You two made this look fun, man. Much love.
Was it worth your working up in that case? If you got no job satisfaction from it.....
@@kevin2true582 Of course I'm just being a little dramatic for comedic effect lol. But there was the self satisfaction of a doing a good job and having a sense of pride after it was all said and done. There was no better way of learning the trade rather than being in in dirt and doing it myself.
I've had co-workers come into design without having field experience before, and there's certain things they've have no way of knowing when without field experience. So I'd say it was absolutely worth it, even if it was awful some days lol.
Great video! Love the fireflies! Brings back memories of my youth chasing after them. Camping, it's closer than you think indeed!!👍🏻
You are a genius Steve. So much love to you!
One of these days we're going to need Steve to release his campsite cookbook so we can replicate some of this magic ourselves. Especially if it only uses relative measurements like "1 can of corn (small one)" or "cook until Jackery runs out of battery."
I was thinking the other day that "Cooking with Steve" could be the next big adventure. Great idea! Maybe some videos as well.
I smell a community project here. Wiki worthy for sure.
Oh man that made me laugh pretty good! Jackery….😂
My baby girl was just born, I'm actually watching this while my wife and her sleep. We can see the smoke from where I live in Maine, I'm glad you are safe Steve. Love the videos, they always seem to ground me and calm me down. My 3 year old boy loves watching camping with Steve when he eats breakfast. All in all, thank you for adding something special to everyone's lives with your content and character. Stay strong
Holy moly....CONGRATULATIONS! 😀
Congrats on your new baby!
Congratulations good sir!
*Congrats to you and your wife.* ♥️
Found your channel a few weeks ago, and absolutely loving the videos. Keep them coming Steve
watching one of steves videos just make me forget about what ive got going on in life for about 20 minutes...I dont have to worry about bills or responsibilities...just sit back and watch steve and calm my hectic life down for a brief moment
This band called wookiefoot has a song called have to laugh. I always find myself thinking about it after being frustrated or anxious about something.
Steve, you sir are an absolute legend. Putting yourself on the billboard was a nice touch.
Thanks Brian! Glad you liked it!
❤😂YOU ARE CRAZY❤😂😂😂😂😂😂😂Lol I LOVE IT!!
May God the Father
And
God the Mother bless you both ❤
we all deserve the kind of friendship that steve and crazy neighbor have
Hey Steve, good to see you and Crazy Neighbor out and about. Be safe, be preparred
This is the craziest video of yours I’ve seen it. Absolutely love it!
I haven't seen fireflies since I was a kid. That was awesome! And I totally love the "Let's just put up a fake billboard and camp behind it beside this lovely wooded area" concept! LOL Best stealth camping yet!!!
Me also, some 50 years for me. The fireflies were so bright!!! Loved seeing them.
Absolutely one of your most creative, smartest, and funny camping idea's in your stealth career. Good one Steve and crazy neighbor. One of your best ones.
I need more Steve in my life. What an absolute legend. Thanks for sharing this awesomeness.
After finding you on RUclips I’ve been addicted to your videos the last week Steve, the blanket tent one made me so happy.
I’m so sorry about your wife, broke my heart.
You have such a good relationship with “crazy neighbour”, he’s amazing.
I wish you all the best and will keep watching.
Oh and you got me into geocaching now 🥰
This was such a sweet video! Thank you Steve and please take care of yourself! We wish you all the best!
8:58. This is GOLD. Handmade silly billboard, a freakin' crock pot set up at camp. This is one of the silliest and best of the series 😆😍 And what a magical night too - with the geocache and seeing the fireflies.
I’m not even half way through the video. And had to comment. “Camping...closer than you think”. Rolling on the floor, laughing my A$$ off. You are the Master of stealth camping. None can compare. Absolutely Genius idea. Glad you brought “crazy neighbor” with you on what may be the best video you have ever done. Dare I say instant classic. Keep it up!!! 😎👍
Omg
I thought the same, it's a brilliant sign. Closer than you think, yeah right behind the sign ha ha!!! Superb in the extreme sense, love it!!
Hey Steve, I just wanted to drop in and say thank you for making these wonderful videos.
Steve. you are in inspiration to me! Glad to see you coming up with great content! Love you man!
These dudes are killing the stealth camping game!!!
