I don’t think it’s allergies, man. I think one of the cows you’ve spoken to may have exposed you to mad cow disease. Remember to maintain six feet when YOing the cows.

Lol. A friend of mine had a moth fly in his ear when we were younger. I thought it was hilarious. He did not. The ER had to smother it with wax and get it out. His dad attempted with some pliers first. Haha. Good times.

Idk why but I like the guy in the truck that stopped the most out of all the people. So chill, when Chad says "got a few more days of climbing" to the big guy, dude from the truck says "it is what it is"... Just so chill haha then the big dude "I'm too fat and out of shape, just had a stroke" so honest! Love that humorous humility!

For real, of all the ways he could’ve ended up needing a doctor, butterfly in the ear wouldn’t have been in my first million guesses lol From the last few days with his ankles bruising I assumed that’s what he was going for, but as soon as the bug flew in I knew he was in it for the long haul lmaoo
If your thinking about your addiction, don’t. There is no profit from personal addiction. Keep moving my friend. Going backwards isn’t an option. It’s amazing to see the number of addicts just in your videos. Bless you Chad. “KISS ASS”

had this happen a little over a decade ago, it was by far the most traumatic thing i've ever had to go to the hospital/DR for. & i've broken bones almost 10 times, gotten 3 concussions, cut so bad I needed stitches 4 times, etc... a bug in my ear is the only one that changed the way I go about my life to this day - just to avoid that ever happening again lmao

I was so anxious the whole time he had that in there I would’ve been freaking out big time. Insane how he was just chill and kept skating with people
Those nurse's were brilliant. What lovely people.
Chad Caruso shows us how to be equanimous, kind, and happy through thick and thin. Thanks, man!

This happened to me once. Was sleeping ( room was next to outdoor greenhouse) and woke up to the sound of crawling in my ear. Freaked me out and would not come out. I grabbed some water and poured it in to my ear and it died. The craziest was that I could hear the legs moving faster until I heard nothing. I fell back asleep and forgot about it. In the morning when brushing my teeth I heard a GLUG and out of my ear came the dead bug with water. Was strange experience indeed.
I NEVER skip the ads on your videos. You deserve all the money you get from these videos.
that's insane. first trip to urgent care and it's for a butterfly/ moth. Guess he wanted to join in on the trip as well. Chad Caruso picking up popularity with all sorts of animals
Damn that bug was bigger than I was expecting haha you are so rad for taking the time and talking/connecting with everyone. Keep killing it and keep pushing. Good luck man
That's funny how the day before you talked about dangerous things you can come across and the next day a butterfly gets stuck in your ear 😂
The butterfly got up close & personal with its “yo” lol
Mothman.. 😃 Your almost there Chad, Keep on truckin'.
People who skateboard are just cooler. I thought that 49 days ago, now I know it.
Bro a buddy of mine was on mushrooms at a party one time and fell in some grass and a moth went in his his ear and noone would believe him. He was freaking out and ended up calling his mom who also didn't believe him. Then she took him to the hospital and the doctor didn't believe him. They all just thought he was tripping. Then finally when the doctor looked in his ear it was totally a moth. Thought that was a one in a million experience. You fkn rip Chad! You're mindfulness and determination is the most inspiring thing on the internet. Thanks for the positive energy brother!

Crazy how Chad automatically follows negatives with positives. His ears banged up but says at least his shin is good. Super positive and healthy outlook.
Had this happen one time. Legitimately the weirdest feeling ever. I had a moth stuck in my ear. EveryTime he would flap his wings. My vision would go all funny
I can’t believe that thing was in your ear for that long!! That’s insane. Thank GOD for that urgent care spot. You’re tough dude!!
Most watched skateboarding series with no flip tricks! Well there was a few tricks though. Not that Chad can't do every trick there is.
I has a small moth fly into my ear while I was trimming a bush. When the vibrate the wings on your ear drum it is a one of a kind experience. Flushed it out with a garden house.
In John Steinbeck's book "Travels with Charley: In Search of America", he talks about in preparation of his trip and in meeting people along the way, there's always a wishfullness he observes in people when he tells them he's going on the road- a look of wanting to also leave and embark on the same adventure. You seem to be experiencing that as well, where it stirs a feeling of adventure in people who used to skate or have some kind of connection to skateboarding and adventure. It's really cool to see people meeting you along the way and joining you for a little while to get that same feeling of freedom.
My man had a fucking butterfly in his ear and still managed to get all his miles in 🤣. Your a trooper man!!! 🤘
that urgent care might have the nicest healthcare employees in america
20 minutes videos are perfect
I still can’t believe it was a butterfly in your ear. Talk about a memory forever 😂
I’ve been watching your trip for 35 days now. I laughed so hard about the butterfly ordeal. Glad you’re ok. Thank you for sharing this journey with us and spreading the word about sobriety ❤
I dont even skate but i found this video series a few days ago and just wanted to commend this mans effort and attitude. This is the living equivalent of "dont be inspired, be an inspiration."
I feel like that is a good omen. Imagine all the doors in the universe that had to open for you and that butterfly to meet in a Tennessee urgent care.

If even 10% of the world was as chill as Chad, we'd be in a lot better shape. You are an inspiration on many levels, sir.
I've been there dude- panic quickly ensues when a foreign object enters the ear canal... What a story for the day
The social encounters are like wind in my sail. This is so sick. Respect!!
This man truly became one with nature for a bit
“To some cultures, the moth is seen as a messenger from the spiritual realm, bringing with it vital messages from the universe. If a moth should land on your person or property, it can be interpreted as a sign of spiritual awakening.“ He must have really wanted to get through lol.
hahaha everyone was so chill in this video. the urgent care girls were awesome
The realities of moving forward outdoors; as a cyclist, I’ve been stung by bees on both shoulders plus one stung me though a vent on my helmet (not to mention swallowing half the insects found in the animal kingdom!). Pretty crazy that a butterfly flew into your ear, skated with it there, and found an urgent care to get it all out!
Woke up one morning with a tick in my ear, I know your pain so well. One of the worst experiences of my life. So unsettling to have tiny legs moving that far inside your head! Glad you got it out.
Man oh man…Chad! Dude you rock man to skate with a bug in your ear?? Unreal you are super human.
That's unreal. It looked so big, like it probably couldn't have turned around if it wanted to. When they're shooting the water in your ear, it kinda hurts too from the pressure. That's a wild day!
how the fuck?!?!? you're a legend dude. a butterfly in your head. poetic.
That Red Bull really does give you wings
I was paddling the coast of Baja and a beetle made its way into my ear. It drove me nuts and was stressful but oddly funny at the same time. I had a bulb syringe in my first aid and flushed it out finally. I couldn’t believe it. Crazy day for you. Loving following your adventure and appreciate you sharing it. 🤘🤘💪💪✌🏻
It's a sign, that your mission could resemble the "BUTTERFLY EFFECT!"
" Crazy Town"...."Butterfly". Be safe out there Chad.
Dude brutal day. Nurse's are the best. The sh*t you just can't prepare for. Damn. Hopefully smooth skating from here on out. 🤙
How many miles did the butterfly do?

Love how this series naturally transitioned into being bout the people more than the journey. As any journey should be, thank you Chad!
0:11 that's one thing people usually don't mention much about switching up climates rapidly. It tends to really mess with allergies & sinuses in general. You went from super dry air to super humid and pollen filled air in a span of a couple weeks! Ragweed pollen is especially bad on the east coast around this time of year
I just need to be half as optimistic as this guy and i am set for life ! Keep rolling bro !
