      Aren`t it ironic? - we call ourselves intelligent yet missing the FEAR OF GOD and replacing it with pointless "education".
      So are we truly educated, by killing off all that has a breath?
      - cutting off trees, while live in an illusions that : oh don`t worried, we will plant these back soon. Do we not know that FOR A SMALL TREES TO BECOME A HEALTHY STRONG FOREST, A HUMAN LIFETIME MUST PASS. We, who plant the seed of the trees, DO NOT SEE THESE RASING UP. Nor do our Children before they are old. Grandchildren in between their lives (ages 40 or 50 and up) - they may have a chance for it. But as we keep cutting these off , all the chances then are taken away.
      - we killing off the animals - WHAT WILL WE THEN EAT?
      - We build all back a digital and not real - chasing after the illusion of living forever here on this dead earth. Yet not realizing that for a human to survive and live digital - A CHANGE IN THE DNA MUST TAKE PLACES. - Yet millions humans believe that they stay human - THE DO NOT STAY HUMAN - EVEN BIBLE PROOF IT.
      So let me ask once again: ARE WE EDUCATED OR NOT?
      Isn`t it ironic? - we call ourselves educated :ruclips.net/video/Xd-p3bGffj4/видео.html
      yet cannot see through the lies.
      Let me share with you all another proof that proofs EARTH IS FLAT AND THE SUN IS CLOSE:
      SOLAR PANELS - these won`t work if that version of our earth is the way nasa tells us.
      a little thinking and putting the dots together and a REAL AND LOGICAL ANSWER IS ADDED AMONG OTHERS. - that`s how easy it is to research.
      Wait. I do think that I can share even another proof: The science channels: as we all take ourselves as highly educated then we should be able to notice a lot - right? - therefore if you all have notice the same I have, then you TRULY KNOW AND SEE THAT THEY, (NASA) NEVER HAVE SEND A THING OUT OF THE EARTH. - THEY PLACE THESE ALL AROUND ON THIS EARTH. Yes, they do a show for us and send them up in the sky for a moment, but all of these come back down soon as their “fake show for us is over” - here is wise to ask: WHAT GOES ON BEHIND THE CURTAINS? Therefore the question I ask from you all: DID YOU MANGE TO NOTICE THE FAKESNES OF IT ALL?

      "So whatever happens, happens," - HERE YOU HAVE A CHANCE TO CHANGE THAT.
      COME TO REPENTANCE BY CALLING ON THE NAME OF THE LORD AND BORN AGAIN = GET SAVED AND GO UP NOT DOWN.
      "what happens in the afterlife" - well it is written in the bible: read soul - read it.
      If We, who die as saved aka saints before the RAPTURE or after - we are going into ABRAHAM`S BOSOM to wait there THE DAY OF JUDGMENT. Later we move into heaven and inherit the NEW EARTH.
      If we die as wicked sinners - then down into Hell we go and wait there THE DAY OF JUDGMENT and later move into the LAKE OF FIRE - burning there forever.
      That`s all, nothing more to add nor take away.
      Dude you are going to burn forever in the lake full of fire and being the whole time in regrets.
      You say your a gay and carring all the other wicked titles, THE REPENT. REPENT form all of you sins and go and sin no more.
      You caring or not caring ain`t change whats awaits you after your time on earth is done.
      THERE`S NO DEATH, A SPIRIT CANNOT DIE. THERE`S ONLY A DEPARTING ONE`S BODY.
      I never been chatolic nor do i come form the house of chatolics. My family members are atehists and buddists - they believe these lies. Sadly even they are still blinded by their PRIDE and that keeps then seeking out the MISSING KNOWLEDGE.
      THE RAPTURE CAN TAKE PLACE EVERY GIVEN MOMENT:
      What if i`m founded worthy too and VANISH SUDDENLY?
      WHO then will be still on this earth HELPING THE LOST? And how many will there be?
      I am fully aware also that the “coin” can be on the other side and I`d be found unworthy to escape and will be left behind to go through the TRIBULATION PERIOD.
      Children can see the spiritual realm, yes. but the ghost they do see are not HUMANS, in every time when your children came out with these stories, about their “afterlives” and their “friends” you are then dealing with DEMONS.
      Hebrews 9:27 | View whole chapter | See verse in context And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: That one verse from bible proofs that no HUMAN SOUL stays on earth "hunting" , we all go back into the presence of GOD. But there is of course a little different`s:
      If We, who die as saved aka saints before the RAPTURE or after - we are going into ABRAHAM`S BOSOM to wait there THE DAY OF JUDGMENT. Later we move into heaven and inherit the NEW EARTH. If we die as wicked sinners - then down into Hell we go and wait there THE DAY OF JUDGMENT and later move into the LAKE OF FIRE - burning there forever.
      There`is no reincarnation. No cycle to come to outlive again and again. Once we leave this realm, we are then TRULY GONE.
      That`s the road for a HUMAN SOULS.
      Therefore do not take your and mine enemies as fools. For they have been on this earth up to 6000 + years and how long we, humans are here? - only up to 120 years.
      Therefore our enemies can imitate us very easily - those who live and those who are dead. Our enemies, the fallen ones/angels can imitate both side. Because they know it all, they witness it all, because they are here with us just behind the curtains of a human eyes. They are spirits, without a body like we have, that`s the reason we can`t see them, but they do see and hear us and they are the same much alive and real as we are.
      So, all the souls of humans:
      Ephesians 6:10-18 - Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Ephesians 6:11 - Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
      Remember to abide in CHRIST, then:
      Isaiah 54:17 | View whole chapter | See verse in context
      No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.
      Being baptized = being died with CHRIST , buried with CHRIST and resurrected with CHRIST.
      How many times CHRIST died for us - was buried for us and resurrected for us? - ONLY ONCE.

    I loved this whole video. The reason why is because it’s RAW, it’s organic and it’s REALISTIC ! Not everyone has sponsors that will gladly hand over 3 or 6 scooters for you to use, not everyone is able to have a “chase vehicle” to hold these scooters, or the friends to document them for the duration of the whole trip. You showed how real this is and it’s truly inspiring. Thank you for keeping this is realistic! Please make another journey similar to this! I enjoyed this video!

IMAX where 'the return of the blue shorts' was, Canary Wharf where you climbed One Canada Square with The Pyramid, and lastly West Ham Stadium after which your channel exploded. That's when the Sidemen Tower video was suggested to me and you've been my favorite youtuber ever since. In the evening I was in a bar in The Shard and had such an incredible view over London at night, and just remembered your old videos where you climbed London's rooftops with Dibs. There's a poster of him hanging in my room for the last 3 years, taken from a crane in Berlin. You inspire people with every new video and I just want to say thank you. Keep up the good work bro! ❤

    Awesome video! But, next time, please wear at least a bowl type helmet (face is still visible for video). They are worse than full-face helmets, but still, way better than nothing. The fact that you might be slower still doesn't decrease the chance of injury. I ride motorcycles, 3/5 times that I have broken bones while riding, where when I was going slow, but in a somewhat advanced terrain. You could be Max Verstappen for all I care, but all it would take, is a careless, unaware driver, to injure you very badly.
    A few injuries ago, I probably would of rode without a helmet too, because it's a scooter after all. But if you drive on the main roads, not the cycling lanes, the consequences in case of a crash are the same as crashing with a motorcycle. Again. Love the video, just be safe. :)

      pretty sure he didn't at all. In the UK they're not even legalised yet and current trials allow only up to 15.5 mph. This thing right here is more like a motor scooter in that it goes way faster and needs not only insurance but also a license plate. Also means that you're only allowed to use it on roads, not sidewalks or bicycle lanes. Oh and you probably need a helmet, too. But I don't really know UK regulations.

    Couple thoughts:
    a. Very lucky not to get 6+ points on licence for the scooter
    b. Once the scooters are legal, might be worth taking a road-legal one and repeating this journey (what happens if you're limited to likely 15mph legal speed?)
    c. Use a scooter with removable batteries instead of generator (weight difference probably more efficient with the extra battery packs vs ICE motor)
    d. Use EV chargers to get extra plugs... use a Type-2 to domestic socket adapter and charge all the batteries at the same time, use Zap Map, Chargemap, Plugshare, etc. to locate chargers. Get the Octopus Juice RFID card to activate chargers.
    e. Maybe bring a spare tyre, lol. (I fully expected you to have some along, seen the tent and all the other supplies lol)
    Basically... can you do this within the confines of the regulations and fully zero-emissions? That would be the ultimate silent scooter journey and even more of a challenge!
    Otherwise, excellent adventure and determination. Was a great watch, very much enjoyed! :) Oh and like others have pointed out, great filming and storytelling!

      yes, he has to be careful, but also be careful in France, because electric scooters are not allowed to drive more than 25 km/h or have a saddle to sit on and must be insured. An unbridled vehicle is liable to a fine of up to €1,500 (and confiscation), and a fine of €135 if no insurance (and confiscation). I'm Parisian, French, and I know it can be problematic... (especially when you're not French, to go home afterwards...😭 without scooters)

    I'm not a law expert, but I think you just broke several laws by accident. In France it's mandatory to wear an helmet on a two wheel vehicle, if the vehicle is faster than 45 km/h (28 mph) you need a motorbike driving licence, and your vehicle need a registration number and an insurance.

      They're getting close to being banned or requiring a licence to ride in New Zealand too. Too fast and heavy if they hit a pedestrian.
      A lot of the larger cities in NZ have ones that you can hire by the minute.
      Wellington city was the first to introduce them, and quickly realised they had to be remotely turned off after 9pm. There were too many drunken scootering incidents in the evenings.

      No "technically" about it. It is completely illegal to ride a privately owned e-scooter on public roads, streets, pavements etc in the UK and so is completely irresponsible of this guy to promote the doing of just that. The police will stop you given the chance. The MET police are particularly trying to crack down on it.

      They probably have better things to do. And like you say if you are riding sensibly etc they probably don't give you a second glance to see if it is a rental (which are legal) or not. However you are still taking a risk riding anything other than a rental. For instance were would you stand legally if you had an accident even if it wasn't your fault?

      @@perspicacia350 truth be told, you have to be unlucky for it to be confiscated. Firstly it has to be a slightly bigger police unit vehicle, because where else are they going to store it? Second,as you said they have their hands full with other issues and unless there is an agenda of the day to take scooters they won't bother even to say anything. Agenda might change if the Borough has high % of scooters that are causing mischief and complaints are pouring in. Rentals are capped at 15kmh which is pretty slow tbf, 20kmh and 25kmh like in Germany is still acceptable. At 30kmh though which is hacked speed police will probably see it as a menace
