    Probably the best overland video I’ve seen. Thank you for taking the time to get out of the car an film. Very nice camera work.
    I used to overland in Venezuela and now building a 4Runner to get back in the trails, and your an inspiration:
    Hope to meet you on a trail some day.

    I'm always a fan of overlanding videos that allow the geography to speak for itself and also make good use of narration. Thanks for taking the time to get it right.

    Found your channel just a few days ago (whilst looking for inspiration for how to set up and use a new Outback here in New Zealand). To be completely transparent and honest, I hope Netflix or one of the major channels discovers you. Its not just the adventures and footage BUT the person that you are. To have an daytime engineer (I think you are) that presents on screen like this is the perfect recipe for a Netflix series. In fact, they need do little, other than take all your productions as they are and hit the 'go' button. Surely its only a matter of time before your success with this channel explodes...ps- it really works having with your truck and its history. Your FJ has a character all of his own..

      Such an awesome comment man! Thank you for the words, its very encouraging! I don't think those types of networks pick up channels, but I do hope in the future to film some documentary type of stuff that involves using these kinds of vehicles. The future should be pretty cool! Thank you for tuning in my friend!

    • @IndependenceOverland
      @IndependenceOverland  2 года назад

      We do on highways, and steep shelf roads where we might roll. I just don’t typically worry about it when I’m bumping down trails. In roll over type situations, we do. Like the scene where Natalia even mentions her seatbelt holding her to the seat.
      Seriously though, thank you for your concern sir. And thank you for watching 🙏

  • @cunever

    Interesting commentary: wife’s live longer so trick them to get them to work… you might want to be careful with your words, as there’s a bit of logic missing. Are you trying to say that apples live longer than pears, so be careful in which to bite first (see how logical that is? 🤣😂🤣‼️)
    Long live misguided analogies!!!
