Not the craziest travel story but I thought it would be fun to tell
I once was on vacation in Georgia (the country near Russia, not the state) and there was a hotel that advertised air conditioning. It had 4 rooms and ONE tiny fan in one of the rooms. It was in the summer when the heat can get really ridiculous. Im pretty sure that was the worst night’s sleep I have had in my life.
The best part about this is you could have gone to the embassy to grab a temporary passport this entire time XD
This was great.
Your name is "BRICKY" if that doesn't sound like your smuggling Drugs I don't know what Does!!!
HEY, THAT'S A GOOD STARBUCKS
"Are you the War Owl" is the single handedly most threatening thing to hear after being taken out of the deportation office.
If they said that without first asking about if he does RUclips I'd be thinking like "Is that some kind of code word? Is this person a spy?"
Your next target Agent 47 is the Canadian Arms Dealer known as The War Owl, true name unknown. He controls seventy percent of all guns crossing the Canada-America border. Recently he has been seen spending his time at the Vancouver Airport, unable to leave.
Your mission 47 is to remove the target before his next flight.
Good luck Agent 47.
@@netapel2625 Clip his wings Agent 47, make sure the War Owl hoots no more.
"Greetings! I, the WarOwl greets you!"
Honestly I'd take it as an insult for inferring that I play CS:GO.
I love how, after all that madness not being able to fly out of Vancouver, he finally gets on a flight at Portland and the map says there is *another* Vancouver right fucking there, like he went nowhere.
I knew it was gonna be one hell of a time as soon as he said the words "Air Canada" I have heard absolutely NOTHING good about that company lol
Canadian citizen here, I once got stuck on the other side of the country because of Air Canada. After boarding the plane and waiting for 30 minutes in my seat, they unboarded us and told us to wait in the terminal. After a further 2 hours waiting in the terminal, they canceled my flight, told us to gather at arrivals to gather our luggage, and told us that someone would be waiting to give us a voucher for a hotel for the night. Try to call the airline itself, on hold. I waited 4 hours, with the rest of the entire flight, for someone to show up. People are getting antsy, airport staff are getting antsy and are trying to contact the airline to figure out what the fuck is going on, all the while I'm still on hold. I ended up calling a relative who lives an hour away from the airport to pick me up. After almost 8 hours of waiting, my ride out of this hell arrives, I'm still on hold, and there's no news of anything happening. As far as I'm aware, Air Canada just fucking dipped and left that entire flight stranded for a day.
@@superb_ray_of_light fuck air canada had them cancel a flight in the morning and then just not want to do anything with the connecting flight. my dad also had a flight with them be on hold for like around 8 hours aswell
to be fair, I dont hear anything good about any airline company
The only issues I've had with flights came from WestJet
I have heard so many horror stories about Air Canada 😂 luckily I've had no issues with either them or Westjet
You know I kinda thought I'd had a bad day today, but coming home and listening to Bricky's Bizarre Adventure: Canada Is Unleavable has put that all into context. Rest up, my man. Goddamn.
IS THAT A FUCKING JOJO REFERENCE!?!?
that bread picture at the end really tells the whole story in one expression.
if depression had a pic that would be it
@@lou35500 Nah, that's exhaustion. He doesn't have the energy to be depressed. Poor Bricky.
That's one hell of a trip
And yeah, Canadian customs/borders are a bit of a pain even for us Canadian citizens.
Yep I had a flight from Paris to Montreal. Luggage didn't get cracked. From Montréal to Toronto, luggage got cracked. I had a replica flintlock in there. Like....why.
@brandoncoutu430 that's extremely unfortunate. Feels absolute bad, man.
There is a show that just follows Canada border patrol and customs. When me and my friend watched it, we were amazed at the absurdity of some of their rules.. including how a person was denied entry into the country, after arriving by plane, because he had a single DUI within a five year time period on his record.
@@thejestor9378yep it’s pretty much up to the individual agent for weather they let you get through or not it’s fucked
Guys, I’m sorry to say this, but the border services agents were doing their job. Unfortunately, he reported it missing/lost/stolen, and the passport was taken out of circulation…the BIGGER question is, how did he get on a plane in the US to come to Canada? No offence, But you’re all backwards on this one.
The Border services agents were doing their job, and obviously noticed something was amiss. He never should have been allowed into canada in the first place without it…
Can you imagine… someone comes to canada, says they’re from the states but have a passport that’s been taken out of circulation…and then that person, because someone felt…whatever at the airport, and let the person onto the flight. Then, that person goes to the states and commits an act of terrorism…I’m not saying he would, obviously, but as a hypothetical…
I’m sorry guys, this one was his fault, but more correctly, American border services in allowing him to leave the country in the first place without a passport..
I couldn’t agree more that our bureaucracy in this country, ESPECIALLY at the top position, is TERRIBLE, but in this case? Nope, they did their job and did it right.
Bricky has been contained, i repeat, Bricky has been contained
"CONTAINMENT BREACH! I REPEAT, CONTAINMENT HAS BEEN BREA-" *The sound of violently slurping Gamer Sups*
The Canadian Border Officers tried to contain him, as they saw he was on the "No Fly" list, but they were too nice to detain him, and instead made him go in circles infinitely.
I bet that. "You had a DAY" really was nice to hear. Anytime somebody acknowledges a bad day it really helps.
I apologize for nothing. As I have no involvement or control over my countries systems in which they operate and I approve of the systems in which are placed.
ᵀʰᵃᵗ ᶦˢ ʷʰᵃᵗ ᵗʰᵉʸ ʷᵃⁿᵗᵉᵈ ᵐᵉ ᵗᵒ ˢᵃʸᵎ ˢᵉⁿᵈ ʰᵉˡᵖᵎ
Very uncanadian of you to not apologize.
Blink quickly if they are forcing you into their "healthcare" system
As somebody that gave up on trying to apply for disability due to days of waiting on hold, only to then be given the run-around, calling all sorts of folks and getting nowhere... I don't apologize, but sympathize.
Our management of several key parts of society, security, health care and more... Are abyssmal.
I know it’s meant as just a simple joke but that’s actually probably an ever more closer reality for more and more Canadians.
Living through some dark times.
@@The_Lone_Outlawnot as dark as the states but
This was a tale of loss and fire and faith.
You were beaten down so many times, rallied, called upon allies (ballers, all of them) and finally reached your goal.
This shit is an epic tragedy and almost so overblown that it would be too much for an animated show to use as a gag.
Forget an animated show, this deserves an entire movie. That's how much it would have to pace itself.
Fuck yeah. Hyped to see Bricky on Playon. Especilally with those Night Lords.
It's people like Jeff & Sammy in this story, who make the world a more interesting place.
As a Canadian, I am so sorry you had a rough time here. (Please don't put me on a hitlist.)
i dont even life in the USA (hi, from EU) but now i get it why evyrbody say F**K Canada .....
@@UmbrageckoEveryone says f**k Canada? Why? Our borders are pretty strict against foreigners sure, but of course it's a necessary evil for safety.
Very canadian of you to apologise tbh
Very typical Canadian bureaucracy (40k administratum)
As a Canadian, I hate our bureaucracy nothing gets done and the government is made of idiots
I just love Bricky sharing his travel photos but its just him trying to get back to the states
As someone living in Bellingham I’ve heard plenty of similar stories about Americans getting stuck in Vancouver. If anyone does get stuck, there is a train that goes from Bellingham all the way to Portland. It does start in Vancouver, but you’ll probably still have to cross the border on foot
As a Canadian, this was a concerted effort. We didn’t want you to leave.
Welcome to Canada 🇨🇦 you can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave! 😂
That's not what I want to hear. I'm leaving Sunday
Canadin border keeps us safe , your border makes you a target, sad to see privy bombast
Canada is so desperate for people to live there they are going to drastic measures 😂
i dont think we should be desperate tbh theres already so many people
@@FrogVoid1we have a shortage of people what are you on about 💀
@@FrogVoid1 Another tactic of the Canadian government to try to gain more citizens is to send out undercover government operatives like you to try and convince people that your country has plenty of people. I’m on to you, Canadian government operative.
@@FrogVoid1mate you welcome immigrants with open arms, a country doesn't do that if it has an overpopulation problem
@@mlixor bro what. 1.2 mil immigrants over the last 12 months. On a population of 40 mil. That’s practically unheard of in non war time immigration. The fuck are you on about
As a french, the worst part of this entire story was discovering that you call this abomination a "croissant"
Also Jeff is truly a baller
Yeah thats not a fucking croissant. That's an abomination.
Not French, but I was looking at that picture for a good minute trying to figure out where the croissant was
@@mememaster695 yeah me too. It looks like a bastardized cinnamon roll to me.
The french pain is real
@@omagouille4104 in this british world, the french know only pain and suffering
Bricky being on Play On, guess this means we are finally going to get some high end close up shots of his models finally lol. Really looking forward to those videos going live.
Edit: Actually that would be a good talking point on one of your future videos, give us some helpful tips and advice on how you would transport an entire (or multiple) army for safe transport through an airline. I've personally magnetized all the bases for my army and am worried that might trigger something when going through security if I am unable to carry them on with me into the plane cabin.
Bricky's conversation with the Uber guy is just him screaming "JUST GET ME OUT OF CANADA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"
The pain in his eyes in that last image, it’s so tangible you can feel it yourself. Canada owes you a great debt Bricky, glad you met some helpful folk on the way!
Travel tip to make sure your shit arrives and is treated as gently as possible on US flights.
I used to travel for a living and used this trick to make sure my bags were never lost and treated far better than regular bags. I would pack a starter pistol in my checked bag. Because Firearms traveling in checked containers are treated like relics of a by gone age. When you are at the counter you declare there is a firearm in the bag. At that point the bag is personally handed off from person to person and comes with a sing off sheet. because federal regulations are VERY STRICT about how they are handled.
The airline will know exactly where your bag is at and will treat ot significantly better than other bags
As someone who lived in Blaine/Bellingham I hope you enjoy your time up here and should you ever make your way up here again I would recommend checking out our breweries. I think we have some of the best on the west coast. But glad to see you made it back state side.
Basically what it’s like in Canada. Everyone just gives you the runaround all goddamn day. Literally nothing works efficiently here
as a brit the idea that you would need 2 different ubers AND then get your friend to pick you up to travel between 2 cities as opposed to just, getting a train, is the most shocking part of this story for me
Western infrastructure was compromised by greedy politicians, we could have a high speed rail connecting coast to coast but apparently not according to the greedy government.
It’s incredible to look at the difference between our trains and America on a map if u haven’t seen it already
It's even "funnier" when you find out that the road system functions (essentially) through a pyramid scheme. We _could_ have a functioning train system, theoretically. It still wouldn't be as effective as other, smaller places-but we could.
@@alexanderhoclippiunus7644 Yeah at this point trying to improve America's public transportation system would be like fixing a bone that used to be broken but had been improperly set. Still worth trying to do, but it's gonna be an incredibly long and painful process.
Relatively small island vs a large country with multiple different geographical obstacles and having to deal with a separate sovereign nation that has never been conquered by the USA (or visa versa). The total distance he traveled just to get to Seattle from Vancouver is about 500km. That's still 1500km away from his home assuming he's in LA California.
Meanwhile, the UK is about 1000km from head to toe, has been "unified" through war and diplomacy more than once, has had an actual war (or two or three) with outside forces and hostile neighbors, and the entire country is incredibly regimented as far as land and geographical obstacles goes. Of course you lot have a bustling train system; your island can't afford to house as many cars, or roads, since you are on a huge island and land is at a premium.
A lot of the area he was in in the north near Canada is wild country where it isn't a small town or farm. It isn't like a train wouldn't be possible; there is a train from Vancouver to Portland, apparently. It would require a passport and it would be slow. A train from Seattle to LA would take about a day to 2 days to complete its trip, because we don't have a high-speed rail that goes that far in the USA (for various reasons from budget, to politics, to this part of the world being very volcanically and seismically active, to the simple fact that there are a lot of mountains in between the two cities).
Finally, there is the fact that automobiles are more suited to that kind of area and with those kinds of distances for the people who live out there. Most places that people live out there are not in a big city, which means that hubs like train depots are simply not a good alternative to having a 4wheel drive and enough fuel to get to a city when you need to. They can't build train depots in every little town (like the one with a population of 5000 that Bricky went to in his story) nor can they run that much track to every corner of the USA or Canada, so people are stuck having to use cars to get to urban hubs to take flights to places in the USA (and Canada) until someone invents something that will work for people in the sticks *AND* for people who live in nice regimented villages and cities both.
The best part about this is you could have gone to the embassy to grab a temporary passport this entire time XD
Is there an embassy in Van?
He mentioned that, or something similar. You make an appointment and it can take up to 3 business days. I just checked the consulate website.
The best part is when you didn't listen to the story.
To be fair most embassies/consulates are able to take in nationals immediately, and host them while helping them out. Canada is so similar to America that they probably just do simple business and not emergency exfils.
What an adventure, and as someone with horrible memory I am glad I do not travel outside of the country because I fear something like this would happen xD.
Wait, does this video mean there'll be no more Terraria? Nooooo... I was loving that series!
"Blame Canada!" from South Park comes to mind.
*gets stuck in Canada, summons Canadian Pterydactyl Owls to carry self back to the states*
That was a mission.
I have a similar story but the distances are considerably less but it felt the same when I was trying to get back from my ex-girlfriends, who lives in Birmingham and I was trying to travel back to London during extremely bad weather, train strikes and general misfortune.
Comfort eating, such as the treat in L&L for you, is very much a thing. For me it was Tortilla (a small high quality Barrito chain in the UK).
All you can do is "Keep Calm and Carry On".
It's in situations like these that you realise how many good and selfless people there are in the world too.
Omg this is the most Bricky thing to happen to Bricky!! Like the moment he began telling the story, you could just feel that it would go into this crazy, never ending plot twists LOL. Classic Bricky getting stuck in a different country
The Bricky and WarOwl crossover that we did not deserve, but needed
Such a Canadian story
The system made to help you makes you wait for ages to actually get going
That is present in EVERYTHING here, hospital, government papers, taxes
But when they want something from you, it’s immediate
I know a lot of people who talk about wanting to travel and see the world, but whenever I see stuff like this I'm reminded how perfectly happy I am in my home town xD
I heard Air Canada and I knew it was all over for this man
Fun Fact: It takes about 16-18 hours to drive from Portland, OR to Los Angeles, CA.
I know this because I lived in Eugene, OR but my Grad School was down in LA.
Add in the drive from Seattle/Tacoma? It's about 23 hours.
So moving from Canada to USA is a "Hotel California Situation". You can check out any time you like, but can never leave 🤣😂
"Anything to declare?"
"Yeah, don't go to Canada."
As a Canadian that's watched u for years I feel really sorry for you. Definitely a rollercoaster that they just didn't need to put you on. Why did they need to confiscate your passport?! Like? And they fact they LET YOU IN with that same passport they confiscated and then put you through this whole fiasco. Like HUHHHH?! Sometimes dealing with the governmental offices, services and stuff like that here is a real pain and I find they just don't see your POV a lot of the time for things like this. There should have been an easier solution for sure, this is a huge misunderstanding. There's so many things like did Air Canada even refund your flight too?! Hell they should've payed for your ubers... love you bricky.
Probably because us customs has the info on the passport being stolen but canadian customs doesn't tbh
He was screwed the moment he decided to fly with air Canada
Bricky I hope you don't take it as an insult when I say this is perhaps my favorite video you've done. I just love stories like this.
I'm so glad you can look back at the situation and be mirthful about it. I know if I was in a similar situation my patience would have worn thin by the third runaround. Also great on you to shout out stellar drivers that helped you out.
19:59, hair, immaculate.
The world can end, but Brickie will keep the cockatoo flying high.
Honestly, this is probably the best example of Canadian services running effectively.
You don't want to see it when they don’t give a fuck.
This is brutal, I'm so sorry. You are a good man to take it all in stride
Moral of the story:
KEEP TRACK OF YOUR FUCKING PASSPORT
Be careful the Prime Minister might decide your content is not Canadian appropriate.
Jeff and Sammy. The true manly men. What a fukin pair of goats
As a Canadian in Vancouver that’s our bad man
I had a very similar experience when I moved to Canada with my mom all the way back in like 2004. The border people on both sides treated us like criminals. It was horrible.
Next time, remember that there's a thing called "bus station" that have a lot of Busses to take people around from city to city instead of ubers xD
in the US? thats a good one.
@@Teh_Duckin Canada, it's even funnier. What the hell even is a bus?
@@Teh_DuckBellingham to Portland is $34 on greyhound bus lines. Goes several times per day.
@@tehdopefish my point exactly... sadly, self reliance its going down at a very high rate. A dead battery and no terminals around and life is over for a lot of people :(
@@Teh_Ducknot 100% sure but there are greyhound type busses that are honestly not the worst ever, I took one from Montreal home since we weren't able to get Air Canada to get us on a flight home from Montreal and the bus tickets were half the price of any hotel
As a Canadian Citizen I can proudly say that this country is a dumpster fire and is rapidly going to down hill, with unaffordable living conditions, rise in extreme woke culture, a prime minister is a complete joke, and a overflow of immigrants among many other things.
The rules and regulations in Canada for air travel were basically written by the US after 2001
watching this as a local vancouver resident is a wild and surreal experience
"Man you had a fucking day!" Is the most honest statement uttered in the whole affair.
Trust me, this ain't a unique experience...
Canada has a LOT of run-around going on in its travel, medical and other government-operated industries.
Lotta folks put on hold for days, calls dropped, appointments deleted/lost, etc.
I swear its some spaghetti-code level organization. Strongly believe it's done this way to limit the number of folks using said services without actually denying them outright; to eave money... Or to extract more as they drag things out.
Talk about a monumental display of patience. Notwithstanding the ordeal you endured to get home, I've been hoping for a PlayOn collab, so I'm over the moon that it's finally happening. Can't wait to see what shenanigans inevitably follow.
When I was a kid we used to go to Blaine to go roller skating all the time from Aldergrove/Abbotsford BC.
No passports or anything. Just asked what we were up to and told to have fun. Coming home they asked if we had anything to declare. Nope? Have a good night!
Times have changed. 😞
Your next target Agent 47 is the Canadian Arms Dealer known as The War Owl, true name unknown. He controls seventy percent of all guns crossing the Canada-America border. Recently he has been seen spending his time at the Vancouver Airport, unable to leave.
Your mission 47 is to remove the target before his next flight.
Good luck Agent 47.
Mission Failed Agent 47, you killed Bricky, an American RUclipsr and now Security has evacuated the Airport, taking The War Owl back to his safe nest.
Do not worry, there will always be a next time 47.
Absolutely hilarious. On behalf of Canada; ‘Sorry, eh’
It is absolutely amazing to hear that you got to play on 40k in 40m! I'll definitely keep an eye out for those episodes. Also glad you were able to get back into the states!
4:24 trusting aircanada was your first mistake
The fact your state issued license doesn't function as a passport as well is bizarre and stories like this make the government look less and less necessary.
Crazy to think you probably passed thru where I live in British Columbia while getting to the border. Big up Jeff and Sammy
My favorite part of the US and its government workers is you can find some absolute gems who get it and let you slide. The ab so lute levels of fuck it are so nice.
Damn. Well, first of all, happy you made it AND have the have the humour to tell us about it. Because as hilarious it was to listen to, i can barely imagine, how stressful that must have been...
This is similar to how that one guy ended up living in an airport, only his passport was had because during his trip, his country ceased to exist.
Bricky single-handedly keeping the Washington Uber economy alive lol
This has nothing to do with Canada. Its US customs/border security.
Our federal government is very stupid in Canada. The bureaucracy has gotten very bloated. We Canadians are fed up too trust me.
0:06 that was your first mistake buddy
As a Canadian, Yeah. CBSA (Canadian Border Services Agency) Is hot garbage. Im not surprised you had these issues with them.
Canuckian here. Ran across this video completely at random and literally had tears streaming down my face from laughing. That is a rough day, my dude. Just be glad it wasn't winter and a province that actually gets cold lol.
Sorry.
The funniest part; I have to fly to Vancouver tomorrow (from Alberta though, so no passport required) and now I'm nervous about somehow being deported from my own country.
Damn that's a trip! You should have live streamed some of it. At some point a random fan would have picked you up lol
Damn buddy, that was an expensive mistake you made about reporting your passport missing. Sorry you had to do all that, but at least you got a cool story filled with nice people to help you get home again. I hope the Canadians pitch in for the crazy travel costs those rides must have racked up.
Welcome to Vancouver. Coming from a guy who lives in Alberta, Vancouver is really nice but oh man, oh maaaan it can be rough there. It's rough in Canada if you have that one particularly unlucky day
damn. sorry about that my guy. i've never been to an airport or traveled farther then a few cities away from home but that sounds like a f*cking nightmare 😆
As a Washingtonian I’m glad you enjoyed your short time in our state, also side note everyone hates Seattle traffic you’re definitely not alone
Worth it for the land...forgot how beautiful the PNW was until I got to go back last year for work. (Was glad to see Whidbey Island is still pretty much the same as it was in the 90s)
Canada is the yandere girlfriend. We're super nice at first but if you try to leave welllll....
As a Canadian, I can confirm that Canadian air travel is absolutely abysmal. Sorry you had to go through this stressful time man.
Being from Britain, this level of red tape and confusion is standard. It makes me so proud that our ridiculous love of forms and hierarchical structure is take so seriously by the Canadians 😂
Canadian bureaucracy is extremely horrendous. I never had seen a system so backwards. but whenever you question. "why not?" those people go after you like you just threatened their entire existence. I know I'm Canadian. and the worst part is, it keeps growing. it's a plague and it needs to be changed.
Moral of the story, Bricky... Stay in California! 😂
Brickster, I am immensely sad that you had to deal with this and that you were in Portland and I didn’t get to hang.
Ya airlines will get sued by the government tens of thousands of dollars if they mess up. Its why they are sooo strict. I always recommend just going to the boarder. Its so much faster and easyer. You juat show then your US id and your basically allrwady though.
My dude got to live the plot of Planes Trains and Automobiles 😂😂
It's okay, I live in Vancouver and I will drive to Bellingham for my flights to just to avoid YVR airport
Air Canada is absolutely the worst airline in the history of the world. As a Canadian, I feel your pain on dealing with those clowns.
For the record, though, this situation had absolutely nothing to do with CBSA - all they did was (probably) just verify his identity and send him along. Also, when a passport is reported lost or stolen, it becomes invalid and CBP is obligated to seize it on behalf of the US passport office.
The only thing is, the US preclearance guys at the airport are the same guys who are at the land border - they probably should have told him to uber to the border.
It's a sucky situation though, for sure.
The bacon cheese roll to help the mental is peak dealing with Canadian bullshit.
Bricky had a borderline Tony Hawk moment
This is a situation you caused for yourself and not a canadian customs problem at all
He escaped before we could brainwash him and convert him... I mean ah darn, we are sorry for the trouble here.
Next time you have issues you should partake in the maple syrup we give out as complimentary snacks for the troubles.
They do seem to take this border security real serious over there, last few times i have crossed a border nobody wanted to see my passport at all even thought last time we where even warned before hand that cos of some politics stuff going on there would be extra vigilance on checking passports.
I worked IT for the CBSA (Canadian Border Services Agency) in a student capacity this summer, and yeah, everything you just said tracks unfortunately.
As a Canadian. Yeah this is typical Canadian Government services for ya :D
I've visited many countries in my life and I think I've never had a worst experience than with the cabadian customs and borders.
Their whole burocracy is dystopian.
Hmm. If I made it as far as Bellingham, I'd have grabbed the evening Amtrak Cascades train south. Or possibly just taken it from Vancouver, though for that you'd need to have an Enhanced Drivers' Licence, which only five states issue.
Hel yes, been giving Amtrak a try instead of flying for my non work travel this year...so far I like it more...slower but faaar less stressful
