I always carry a knife when I go out to the villages, always.
00:00:04.000
Now they're out in the villages and we're planning to kill you at the end of the trip.
00:00:17.000
A little over a year ago we made a video called The Roadman.
00:00:20.000
We're gonna go to the mountains and I have no intention, I have no idea what we're gonna do because they put a bunch of activities together.
00:00:26.000
I'm not sure you're ready to be a roadman, Bailey.
00:00:38.000
You don't know about the time me, Tristan, and Luke drove to Malmo, Sweden from Lu in England, leaving at 2 a.m. to go to Christmas at a random girl who I was sleeping with's house.
00:00:47.000
It was Christmas Day, and I met her in Dubai like six months before.
00:00:55.000
And I called her Christmas Eve, saying, I'm coming.
00:01:11.000
So we were doing push-ups in the snow in a gas station when Swedish police rolled up on us and asked us what we were doing.
00:01:30.000
Just go wander the earth and get into adventures, you know?
00:01:36.000
So we're going to go wandering around in cars and see what happens.
00:01:43.000
And then, you know, before you know it, you know, you meet a bitch, you make some money, you go to jail.
00:02:07.000
Only Mick Hucknell turns off the moment I start driving.
00:02:11.000
What do you mean you don't know who Mick Hucknell is?
00:02:51.000
Nothing like watching the sunrise with a bit of Mick Hucknow.
00:02:56.000
Now that the sunrise is up, I know what the rest of the trip is going to be like.
00:03:01.000
I've got some banging audio books if you want one on 17 17 Tris I'm going to lose my mind 18 is 17 18 It's only on numbers right now I'm going to listen to this Do this all day Are you ready Are you ready Divionati.
00:03:33.000
I'm going to just start repeating it in the most hick accent of all time until you can't stand it.
00:04:15.000
always carry a knife for their potential to be bears.
00:04:22.000
And you've included it so many times, and I've never seen you with a knife.
00:04:26.000
Carries a knife when you go swimming in Croatia.
00:04:30.000
You go swimming in Croatia, in the ocean, off your yacht.
00:04:40.000
But in the comfort of my own home, with you being arrested by Decon, I couldn't risk telling you how I really felt about you to your face.
00:04:48.000
Now that we're out in the villages and we're planning to kill you at the end of the trip, I can tell you that no one likes you.
00:05:31.000
Forgot to cover the hood of the car in wooden spoons to protect it from witchcraft.
00:05:52.000
I read a few books that he wrote when I was younger.
00:05:55.000
I looked around England and the way society was collapsing and the way Christians behave.
00:06:01.000
This is a relatively new phenomenon, but let's just say it started with versions of reality I saw like that.
00:06:06.000
And I thought, you know, Christians don't really stand for anything anymore.
00:06:09.000
I challenge any atheist to walk around Romania and just insult Jesus Christ.
00:06:12.000
To the normal Romanian man, the Romanians stand for something.
00:06:15.000
And I saw how Christianity holds this country together.
00:06:17.000
Walking around London with that watch and no bodyguard could be a death threat.
00:06:20.000
You could get as drunk as you like by yourself in any bar on Bucharest with that watch on and no one's going to steal you.
00:06:25.000
The Romanian people are good people and Christianity is what helps hold the society together.
00:06:29.000
I fell back into Christianity by reading the Bible cover to cover six years ago.
00:06:32.000
And it opened my eyes to what I was standing against as an atheist.
00:06:39.000
Let me at least investigate what I'm missing out on.
00:06:51.000
So there live an hermit, a monk that is basically part of the monastery but is living outside of the monastery in the wild.
00:07:02.000
People leave him food and he studies the Bible all day and tries to be close to God and lives in complete isolation.
00:07:13.000
So because they live here, many other monks, they came and they built a monastery.
00:07:20.000
So because of these two hermits, they built a monastery here.
00:07:27.000
That's why many people came for them and they say, okay, let's make a monastery.
00:07:49.000
On the black side, so we say the first black people.
00:07:53.000
Please, God, don't let them come to our country, I think, is what's happening here.
00:08:01.000
Which is a seven-hour hike, which we're not going to do.
00:08:03.000
But technically, you can drive there, but I'm not sure the road was built for Ferrari A-12 competitions.
00:08:17.000
And Tristan said there's no way we're going to make it.
00:08:18.000
And I said, well, if it gets bad, I'll turn around.
00:08:36.000
And I'm prepared to drive from top of this fucking mountain.
00:08:53.000
Andrew, I really don't think that the Ferrari can handle this.
00:09:03.000
It's a $1.5 million Ferrari, so, I mean, let's horse connect it.
00:09:12.000
Driving with your friends is such an analog experience of life.
00:09:15.000
Setting ancient dinosaurs on fire, making small explosions inside of a combustion engine with cylinders.
00:09:24.000
And then you get to race around and rubber grips you to the road.
00:09:28.000
This visceral, tangible, this very analog experience of life.
00:09:34.000
All of this, this analog experience of life is going to be replaced.
00:09:37.000
There won't be V12 Ferraris to race around in the mountains.
00:09:40.000
It'll be an automated techno box to take you from place A to place B. And I see the pattern of where we're all headed.
00:09:46.000
That's why I'm so dedicated to live the best possible existence I can live and smile every single day.
00:09:50.000
And to do that, unfortunately, the truth is you need brotherhood, you need strength, you need capability.
00:09:55.000
Everything will be controlled by the AI autocrat.
00:10:01.000
This is the last season of the human series in which people could live an analog life.
00:10:07.000
If you're not trying to get rich, just spend that money on analog things.
00:10:12.000
Andrew gave us some bullshit location, which is on a dirt road.
00:10:16.000
And every car coming down from the top of the dirt road has not seen a Ferrari, which they would have seen, I'm 100% sure.
00:10:26.000
So now I'm in a 700,000-pound Aston Martin, driving on a dirt road through the forest with the chipmunks and the bears.
00:10:41.000
It's just a path that's been beaten from tractors and dachias driving up here.
00:10:48.000
He literally sent us a location and said, meet me here.
00:10:56.000
And if I were in a 4x4 Suzuki, I'd be perfectly happy on this road.
00:11:04.000
When Aston Martin tested the DBS 770, they didn't test it on a road like this.
00:11:10.000
I'd actually bet this is the only Aston Martin DBS 77E in history to ever drive more than 100 meters on a road like this.
00:11:18.000
We're literally in the mountains with the bears.
00:11:24.000
And the only person who didn't follow the directions was the person who sent the directions out.
00:11:28.000
So it was your idea to traverse up the dangerous mountain road.
00:11:31.000
And we soldiered on to the location that you sent.
00:11:43.000
I had been up and down in the time you fucking.
00:11:52.000
I would never pretend I'm going to go up a road that I knew a car couldn't get up and then just drive to the hotel.
00:11:59.000
I would never speed off quickly and just go here and have soup.
00:12:04.000
If that's what you're implying, if you're implying I sent you on a wild chase up a mountain in an Aston Marin and came straight back here to have spicy chicken soup, then you're wrong.
00:12:22.000
So the AI super brain told us that we had to come to this park to find some action.
00:12:29.000
I don't know about you guys, but I'm having a fucking great time.
00:12:44.000
You're going to sit around watching your kid on a slide and make it drunk.
00:13:27.000
These Romanians have used their card, the I'll put you in jail card, and I'm no longer afraid of it.
00:13:36.000
Because they can't do anything to me that they haven't already done.
00:13:39.000
And for that reason, I do whatever the fuck I want.
00:13:47.000
I'm talking about the punishment for doing it is.
00:14:27.000
