Im a bit bummed for how little credit his amazing team has been given on all the media sessions
Listen to the happy hour podcast, the team get lots of praise and even appear on the show.
I've followed the journey from day one and think his team were amazing. However, let Russ have his moment!!. His team were paid for their work which a lot of people either don't realise, or forget. Not taking anything away from the work they've put in, but what Russ has done is nothing short of incredible and I'm so glad he's being recognised for it
He misspoke he meant he's raised over £870,000 for charity not £170,000.
What Charity?
@@irenedavo3768the running charity and sandblast. Theres more info on his social media and youtube channel
@@irenedavo3768 The Running Charity
@@irenedavo3768 Two of them.
@@irenedavo3768 2 , he has mentioned them a number of times in various interviews - take a look🐕🦺
Russ undersells himself so much! This guy is the true definition of grit and determination, pushed through every challenge and injury he faced with pure class!
Yes this man is truly " The Hardest Geezer"
Shame that his adventure on RUclips wasn’t given this much attention - honestly the best 80 part series on the internet 😂
Love that they included a clip of Gus running behind him with a machete in hand
Can he be 2024 sports personality of the year …. YES
Absolute legend. I'm glad I went to Tunisia to run the last 42km with him. What an honour!
what's next 'icecream'! Such a classic.....honest, down to earth and I'm so glad to be able to follow this journey over the last year.
Top bloke! Unbelievable feat of mental and physical endurance! 💪🏻🏴🇬🇧
Why the butchers apron

Incredible human achievement.
Amazing. What a legend... Followed it on RUclips from day 1. Well done Russ and your amazing team (all played a huge part in it!!). Congrats!
The greatest endurance a human has ever completed. Well done that English man
not sure. people have cycled solo from london to sydney without a support team before
Wow. He should have raised £170 million. This should have been more publicised for the last year. First I heard was on Radio 2 last week.
he misspoke ive been following him a long time and it went from 170k a few weeks ago to 870k today. Hopefully he gets his million when his final vlog is released :)
I have my 50 quid ready when the final vid gets dropped
@@markfrancis3162why not donate now?
Watched the whole series on yt its pretty funny at times.
What Charity?
No hi raised £ 870k
Russ Cook aka Hardest Geezer aka The Ginger Jesus aka Ten Toes & Tarmac. Absolute legend!
Russ looking like a wizard 😂
He's the Weasley to cameraman stans potter 😅
@@AuntyAwesome brilliant
the Forrest Gump comparison is scarily accurate
He looks like he came from the middle ages
Yeah, they call him 'Cook the Red' in wizardry world :D
the hardest geezer? more like the humblest geezer
Good interviewer
Am just admirative... A real Man with a big M
CONGRATS RUSS
Actually inspiring
What a legend
I've watched his channel from the start and never felt like starting to run, but something about this interview has inspired me. Can't quite put my finger on why 😂🤔
Well now we can't say Gingers never did anything
We can with him
Go on russ 🎉
Such a dude
Hardest Geezer ! This dude was clean shaved this morning ....
The homeless-looking ginger runners are coming out of the woodwork. Beau Miles comes to mind.
That'd be an amazing collab!
And Sean Conway!
Such a modest and humble and real person this HG guy is, after achieving the impossible. Well gone mate !
I can’t even run to the shop let alone 16 countries
Legendary human feat.
Tough as they come that lad
What an amazing achievement, fabulous, I wished I’d known about it before, where’s my algorithm for that RUclips
Is it bad that I'm more excited about him being from Worthing.
Geezer, geezer, geezer, geezer!👏
Top geezer
I see hardest geezer, i press like
wow!
One word - Legend - a top geezer - inspiring-
There needs to be a book.... I would buy it!
Man’s dad law gunna be insane 😂
Proud to be British 🇬🇧
English *
@@34547Same thing
Credit to everyone who gets out of their comfort zone.
Just a pity that he rarely mention his team that assisted him - he wouldn't have made it without them.
Who wants we do this with different route
Top Man 👏💪
Big fuckin G . All respect
Hero Geezer 👏
Well done mate incredible😮😊
He looks a bit tired, wonder why
Who is presenter
The movie rights alone will make him some good dough some day.
He deserves all the credit he’s getting but I’m over these traditional media 10 minute plastic interviews, bring on the podcasts.
What Charity?
He looks a lot like a guy we called "Beard-o"
The tarmac didn't stand a chance.
He should keep the beard and hair. He looks wise now.
English endurance athlete*
Thought that was Mia Khalifa for a second
"I'm going to get a haircut, imminently"
He's raised over a million pounds
Stomping while smashing that tarmac to pieces with them 1’s & 2’s. Congratulations Russ…The Hardest Geezer will be back in the future. Can’t wait and gutted it’s over for now. Until next time…peace bro.
What a legend. So modest. Hope all this media coverage gets the total up to £1M.
"A really long run" lol good onya Russ.
Why did she give the distance in Miles? Also eight hundred and seventy thousand pounds
Because we use miles in England
He should become a saint
Hahaha looks like someone you'd wake up and see while ur little english village gets raised by scottish raiders
Tormund?
@@lilme7052 lmao I think that's who I had in mind subconsciously🤣
Time for a makeover...
Lmao, long lost son of Ginger Baker
Most people have to go to work every day. 🙄
Meanwhile over at BBC... Russ who? It's a travesty they haven't given him air time.
“Thanks for having me…. Wicked”
-the toughest man to exist, 2024
Good cut at the we didn't see the flags. Raised by followers
Rightly so
Awful interview.. asking if he had a doctor with him?? At least do a little bit a research first.. then clearly called him Ross at the end.. 🙄
The saddest thing us he raised almost £1 million and he gets to keep none of it, all that work so some charities can get a hold of it and we all know how corrupt they are. And to top it all off were overpopulated so hes just done all of that work to make the earth worse than what it was. Atleast keep half for yourself he looks dead inside after than year.
Cheer up
Forest Gump run forest run.
Well done to the IDF😂
Cringe
Who cares
Man completes a world record physical fear and raises hundreds of thousands for charity
Lazy old man on RUclips -"ehh that's nothing!"
?
Most people who don't have a complex care mate 👍
James seems a little underwhelmed 😂😂😂
Why hasn't he got a job?@@samlloyd2895
Big fan of him now class guy
Gosh, he looks like Van Gogh!
