Thanks for coming along for another adventure from Northern Vietnam! We've got 3 more days left and I can't wait to show y'all the rest- this was one of the greatest adventures of my life!
@@SmallBrainedAmerican You are so close to China, you should go there to have a look, I just watched a video with the title: Nanjing 2023 Tour, A City of Treasures of Buddhist Art | Jiangsu, China
It's a pity that you have been polluted by China's air and biochemical weapons. The virus will make you lose your sexual ability and make you mentally handicapped. I can already feel it from your speech. Maybe you still have half a year to live. Go back to you Let's meet your mother for the last time in the United States, the birthplace of the virus. Why did you come to pollute China's water sources? Are you sent by the Maryland Virology Laboratory in the United States?
Amigo llegue acá por una sugerencia de vídeo acá en Colombia, mi país es muy bello, es cuestión de ir por los lugares más seguros sin alejarse, soy de Bogotá pero ahora estoy visitando el santuario de las Lajas el más bello del mundo, de nuevo eres bienvenido ❤
@@nelsonbermudez6239 You are talking about Colombia, a country full of gangster crime, I have no guts to approach this country, I fear the air of this country will kill me
Dude, I'm addicted to your videos now. Found your channel about a week or two ago just searching for some tourist info on Japan, and now I'm watching your stuff daily. It's genuine, no sugar coating, and your personality makes it enjoyable to watch.
Yes! Me, too. He feels like a genuine, normal, down to earth person; exactly : no sugarcoating no bullshit PC stuff, just his honest experience. Can't believe how refreshing it is to see that on the internet these days.
Barely started watching your videos, and I love how relatable and just unfiltered you are. So many other channels try so hard be polite, and watch their language. Whereas you're just going out there saying what you think.
Your RUclips channel is just gonna stop one day and nobody will know what happened to you. Just go home and take care of your mother while you still can. ❤
This is literally the most honest traveling channel out there. Glad the algorithm served me here lmao. I love how you never speak bad about the people of the country specifically but more so about the situation they're in. I feel like loads of them would agree if they'd ever come to a developed country.
Vietnam borders with two touristy Chinese provinces, how the hell they pass pollution to Vietnam? One province (Yuan Nan) even has much better air quality than Vietnam. Radioactive River? Stop being an American for a min.
I’m pretty sure he’s being sarcastic, joking you know. But your joke about China having less pollution than Vietnam is almost more fun. Even though it seems like you’re trying to compare a province to a whole country.
Love your _"Riiii!"_ sound when you're excited! 😄 That landscape is on my top3 of all time greatest terrains. The roads looked okay as well. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us, I'm a fan!
I could be wrong, but the airy chips might be due to elevation. I bought some in mexico, normal bag, and when we were in colorado all the bags were like that one haha.
I’m so in love with this channel. Connor is the ultimate American traveler, but also goes above and beyond to try to speak the language. I love all of this
In Vietnam you'll get ignored with or without camera unless you're at some touristy spot where they would talk to a foreigner which would normally never happen unless you initiate the conversation or contact yourself. Also he's using a GoPro, most likely the shopkeeper didn't even notice the camera
Mr Ballen's brother! Found him. Bro, thought it was just me who said 'I love you' to complete strangers lol good man Love this dudes honesty. If he doesn't like it, he says so Only bug i have is the mullet. Wasn't even a fan in the 80's. Eeek! Love you man. Safe travels! UK
It's not that strange if you've traveled to other countries. Many people speak English in this part of Asia, at least at a basic level. It's more surprising to find someone who doesn't know any at all. It's not a matter of obligation but just a normality. SEA languages are hard to learn quickly when you're just driving through like he is. I lived in Thailand for months studying Thai and I still suck at it, their English is better since they learn it in school from a young age, so it's not that crazy that you'll end up conversing in English if your Vietnamese/Thai/Whatever isn't there. It's like how many Americans know basic Spanish from school, except here they care way more about learning English than we do our second languages. I end up using my phone to translate in these kind of situations, but maybe he had no signal.
21:05 dude you’re content is hilarious, entertaining, and filled with beautiful vistas and beautiful people from all around the world. Show’s humanity isn’t as dead as the media makes it seem.
By the way the chips beingfilled with air isn’t cause they’re filled with air it’s cause you’re at high altitude where there’s less oxygen so the bag expands or less pressure at higher altitude
Stumbled upon your channel today bro, have to say I haven't stopped bingeing your videos, amazing content and really humble tourist, it even inspries me to go out there more and I haven't been the travelling type, easily the best I've seen for this kind of content, will be watching for the long haul, seriously keep it up!
Your adventures are awesome. I’m glad I found your channel. It’s amazing to see so many good people in the world. We are all not so different after all!
i see myself in you soo much its scary. your channel is such a inspiration to me like you are doing what ive always wanted to do. much luck to you in the future man i love these videos!
They don't fill their bags of chips with air it's because of the pressure due to the altitude. The chips in Colorado look the same as well and when I see deflated bags I think oh it's probably stale.
Me and my partner rode the ha giang loop a few months ago. Fucking incredible!! What an experience. Glad you enjoyed it too. Love your content bro! Keep it up
“The chips.. they fill it with air” Nah man… when you take chips to high elevation the air in the bag expands. You just high up is all. I’ve had them pop in the car and scare the sht out of me.
That looks so enjoyable/relaxing haircut and a shave out in the Vietnamese countryside up in the mountains. Away from all the everyday BS stress and obligations.
Absolutely love your videos mate ! have been on a binge watching all the episodes and different countries, what an absolute treat. Love that you take the road unexplored and adventure to meet new people, so interesting seeing stuff tourists woulding normally see and interactions with really interesting people! Any plans to travel again soon ?
Hey man, I don't know how your keeping a straight face at 12:05, getting the brush painting on your face. I'd be cracking up big time, as I'd be getting the face treatment. 😂🎉
This man is rocking Calhoun Georgia, in China . This is awesome to me considering I live 5 minutes from that bucies in Calhoun. Seriously enjoying this channel so far and that was a surprise.
I don't know how I came up to your channel but really you are the most honest and somewhat funny sarcastic which I like. Please be safe. I'm rooting to your videos.
Bro I love this channel! Your content and personality is awesome I only wish to be able to travel like you do my friend. Always be safe and live life to the fullest.
Funny how you accentuate your consonants when someone doesn’t understand you and then they still don’t understand you lol. Enjoying the vids. Keep up the good work
You're at altitude, m8. Air is less dense/the atmospheric pressure is lower, which is why the bag of chips was puffed out and why your carbureted scooter was leaning out once you started into the mountains. If you'd adjusted the choke, it would've been fine.
He is close enough to the border to be in China. The source of that river probably is in China. About his channel’s name, you people have no clue what self-deprecating humor is do you 😂 You must be a joy to be around
Hey Connor. You should travel to Santiago Atitlan in Guatemala. It has long scenic roads like this with a MASSIVE volcano surrounded by water. It’ll change your life.
@SmallBrainedAmerican The chips look like they are filled with air due to high altitude. I think it naturally expands. I went to a mountain the other day and their groceries all chips also look like that.
Chips packets are usually packed in the plains...so at higher altitudes (like in this place), due to lower air pressure, these packets become fluffy (due to expansion) i think
Just started watching your adventures. Got to say I am hooked. I have a question. How do you charge your phone and camera in these rural in the middle of nowhere places?.
I spent last December in Vietnam with my Vietnam vet grandpa and it was either the worst, most nightmarish bureaucratic experience in the world or the most relaxed, sunny, and friendly experience in the world; no in between.
The bags of chips are so filled with air because they were packages at a lower altitude and then brought up into the mountains. The pressure change does that

Stumbled upon the channel a couple of days ago and I've been absolutely addicted. You're hilarious man. Can't wait for more videos.
same haha
Same for me>>>I stumbled upon the channel and I am addicted tooooooooooooooo!!
04:30 Bags have a lot of air because lower pressure in the mountains, if you take the bag down, the bag will flatten.
I had to laugh when I heard him say "They fill it with air". I love this guy
He is american

This is one of the best channels I've come across recently! Keep up the good work man. Cheers!
that barber deserved a nice tip
please drink more Japanese Radioactive sea water, that the best drink you like most.

Love how authentic and funny your vlogs are. And that view of the mountains was beyond spectacular!
You were ignored because of the camera . If I seen some random dude pull up with a camera , I would turn around and walk the other way .
In Vietnam you'll get ignored with or without camera unless you're at some touristy spot where they would talk to a foreigner which would normally never happen unless you initiate the conversation or contact yourself.
Also he's using a GoPro, most likely the shopkeeper didn't even notice the camera

Only bug i have is the mullet. Wasn't even a fan in the 80's. Eeek! Love you man. Safe travels! UK
It's so strange to me, when tourists are surprised when different countries don't speak English when it's not their language.
fr its so fkin weird lol. Its not like he speaks any other language aside from English
@@boomshroomgoonmoon He actually can speak fairly good conversational japanese. If you check out some of the videos hes done out there
@@jhowl1332 Yeah but who cares? Thats a novelty for him. These people have no obligation to know english.

@@jhowl1332 barely conversational but he definitely knows some bits.
I don't get it why you called this river which actually locted in vietnam as China's Radioactive River?
because its coming IN FROM china
Because this is a typical American, ignorant and arrogant.
@Archuhi3
Two provinces bordering China and Vietnam are known for their beautiful natural scenery and have no nuclear industry at all.
Thanks!

It’s incredible man great place for adventure
Are you suggesting communism works???
@@blinkers88 Of cours it can work.
4:41 The puffy potato chip bag has to do with low air pressure at higher altitudes 😸
yes, wanted to say this, it's just an altitude difference thing
I think they just wanna sell some air

Funniest travel vlogs, dude love the foreign subtitles "this dumb foreigner has no idea what he's getting into" 8:23
Thanks brother 🙏🙏
I think that river is not as so "Radionactive" as Japan's🤣
China dumps way more radioactive waste than Japan, its pretty wild if you look up the numbers.
Found your channel today and already almost watched all ur vids! love them and keep it up man!!!

this channel is the best travel doco since madventures. fkn awesome.
Really loving your channel man. Thanks!

Your pit stop at the Garage Spa looked pretty awesome to me, to be honest. The dip looked refreshing, too. I hope you do not turn green or something.
Dude! i love your channel man, you seem so comfortable and funny on the camera. keep doing your thing bro, you make lots of ppl smile with your vids

What a contrast between India and Vietnam, only visited China couple of times it was much better than I
You're at altitude, m8. Air is less dense/the atmospheric pressure is lower, which is why the bag of chips was puffed out and why your carbureted scooter was leaning out once you started into the mountains. If you'd adjusted the choke, it would've been fine.
Not until the moment i saw you bathing in a vietnamese river and call it chinese, did i realize the meaning of the name of your channel.
He is close enough to the border to be in China. The source of that river probably is in China.
About his channel’s name, you people have no clue what self-deprecating humor is do you 😂
You must be a joy to be around
Yeah, it's a click bait video. Thumbs down for his garbage.
We need some merch of you on a motorbike on a t-shirt and it'll say "rheeeea" 😂
That shave sounded wild
At least he didn’t knick me like the Mexican barber 😂
The Istanbul shave was the best.
Dude which camera and mic you are using could you please tell me?
I feel sorry for those chickens in that small cage :(
i am not sure but i think that the chips bags might be that way because of the high altitude and them getting packed at a different altitude
Hey Connor. You should travel to Santiago Atitlan in Guatemala. It has long scenic roads like this with a MASSIVE volcano surrounded by water. It’ll change your life.
You're definitely a madlad for filming a RUclips in China
I went to the other side of the border. On China side it's super commercialized resort where you can take a huge elevator up the mountain and stuff
Well, I have a CDL, and those trucks are trying to avoid the deep trenches on the right. If their tires go in, it's game over. They are being safe.
@SmallBrainedAmerican The chips look like they are filled with air due to high altitude. I think it naturally expands. I went to a mountain the other day and their groceries all chips also look like that.
That doesn't seem right
These videos are awesome. Idk how this guy isn't more known.
3:31 why does it sound like you just threw your bike to the ground lmao
Chips packets are usually packed in the plains...so at higher altitudes (like in this place), due to lower air pressure, these packets become fluffy (due to expansion) i think
Those North Vietnam mountains look amazing!!!!! I’m gonna rent a motor bike and check it out too!!!!!
You should visit Brazil, the rural parts of Minas Gerais looks a lot like this and you’d have some adventures for sure.
Your videos are so honest and interesting off the beaten track. Great stuff man. watching every video - great stuff
Just started watching your adventures. Got to say I am hooked. I have a question. How do you charge your phone and camera in these rural in the middle of nowhere places?.
you gonna be viral soon
But this is not China, this is Vietnam. Could you please clarify the difference between the Vietnamese flag and the Chinese flag first? Thank you
I spent last December in Vietnam with my Vietnam vet grandpa and it was either the worst, most nightmarish bureaucratic experience in the world or the most relaxed, sunny, and friendly experience in the world; no in between.
Lol great content brotha!
The bags of chips are so filled with air because they were packages at a lower altitude and then brought up into the mountains. The pressure change does that
