It is a privilege to feel like this journey was made just for me. Chad is like that friend you want. I feel like I should have chipped in for fuel. Thank you so much, Chad, for taking all of us along . I life long dream came true.

Thank you so much for taking us to the Arctic 🥶 We love all your videos! I have a Q. How does the drone survive out in those frigid Temps? And....do you have to get permission to fly over the pipeline?

Same to many, who would love to do it themselves but they just cannot do it for various reasons. I watch every single post of this channel.

absolutely great "cinema"!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Thx. Chad !!🙋

as a truck driver myself i love seeing trucks lined up with steam rolling out of the pipes...

Chad - Your personal motivations for taking road trips are truly inspiring. It is evident that this journey means a lot to you and your passion is truly admirable. Your dedication to excellence is all over every production!

Chad is at the top of the tree when it comes to van life films they are simply a cut above the rest and I enjoy every single minute 👍

What an amazing experience, and you got a sunny day too. Beautiful video. Very profound.

7:04 a Bird's Eye View. Thank you Chad for this Epic and Magnificent Videos ✌️😎❤️🇵🇭

Look at the artic chickens! LOOK AT THEM!

You do a great job of telling the story with amazing cinematography and photos. Being alone while doing this is a lot of work. It also takes a lot of skill for these captures. Thanks for sharing it with us.

Yes, I like others, feel like he is taking us along. Thanks!

The scenery is unreal. It’s so beautiful and majestic but yet deadly. I was in awe of how vast the landscape was and I was getting anxiety of how cold it is. Chad thank you for taking us along your adventures.

Happiness starts with yourself and a deep understanding of who you are and what you like and don’t like! I think your finest video yet, Chad! Thanks for bringing us on your journey!

The footage you capture with your drone while simultaneously driving is just extraordinary. Been watching your channel for many years and have loved the evolution of your skills and capabilities but you still maintain the excellent commentary and friendly feel of your older videos early on with the Volkswagen

Here we Go‼️ Part V‼️ Happy Holidays Chad. 😎✌️❤️🇵🇭

You put videos together so beautifully; the quality is top notch. Thank you so much for sharing, Chad, and have a merry Christmas!!! 🎄

Bro I respect your tenacity to take this trip. Your words of encouragement are truly inspiring. I respect you 🙏🏾

My dream....thanks chad for taking me through ur journey..

I have learned more about myself traveling solo in my van than I thought possible. I am improving daily. Your videos are inspiring. Thank you for hearing your adventures.

Chad..excellent cinematography and amazing story telling. And that background score ..You are one of the genuine best on youtube.

i wrote down the quote, “when you sit at home and anticipate how hard something might be, its easy to talk yourself out of those things (or those challenges), but, if you actually hurl yourself into the unknown, you push your limits, you can actually unlock special things within your heart, within your soul.” Chad, you are such an inspiration to me in so many ways and your videos have provided me with a wonderful source of motivation and encouragement as well as comfort and happiness for you and your continual successes. Thank you so much for all the hard work you put into the Van Life, not just for all of us but for yourself. Keep on trucking!!!

The fact you never stopped smiling says it all,well done Chad, that was epic,we enjoyed it all from start to finish 👍😉

Live a little and do a trip with no schedule or planning. True adventure. Control creates boundaries.

Chad, after episode five, I don't even know if there are any more words that I haven't said in comments during previous episodes. I think I can only repeat myself when I say thank you so much for allowing me (and us) to join you again this time on this adventure full of spectacular scenery and excitement. I wish you a very Merry Christmas and a happy holiday!!🎄I can't wait to see the next episode as well!

Thanks for including route map segments in the last coupe of edits! This roadtrip is no joke! Living vicariously through you at the moment - but this kinda trip is on my bucket list!

My Sprinter is totally my "walk about" facilitator. I had to smile when you said that. The other thing was when you said “when you sit at home and anticipate how hard something might be, it's easy to talk yourself out of those things". I've been doing a bit of that lately and needed to hear this. Thanks for another great episode. I'm glad we didn't need to read about you freezing to death on the Tundra when your heat went out. ;)

Chad your a well deserved content creator. Enjoyable content.

You are amazing 😊😮

Those shots through the Atigun Pass were truly Epic !

I just found your channel. I watched a few minutes of your first Arctic adventure and ended up watching everything you've made from the very start. I'm hooked! And I am thoroughly enjoying every one of your masterpieces! I'd love to think of myself as "adventurous", and maybe sometime earlier I was. Unfortunately, I also managed to clip my own wings somewhere along the way. Sadly, but not finally. I may not be able to drive to the Arctic, but your films have managed to help me come "face to face" with some of the most beautiful mountains in the North, at extreme heights even. I'm sure it's nothing compared to actually being there in person, but it was awesome none the less. You have an artistic eye for film and photography, and the wonderful stories and information to captivate the senses. Your timing is perfect and we'll balance. Thank you for your words of Wisdom. You've inspired me to remember I still have my own wings to flex and unfurl, and that it's never too late to start using them again...

I'm glad it wasn't the heater itself that was broken. I would be inclined to have a back up heater when you do these arctic trips. Yay for the easy fix!

I think everyone has said it but the cinematography, narration, production, content. You feel like you are really there. Unparalleled work Chad...bar none and that includes all the pros.

The kind of music he put in the starting of the video is amazing

Wow thank you Chad for sharing and Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄

I’ve been pushing this video off because I knew I needed 36:55 mins of uninterrupted time lol. Absolutely awesome Chad!! Thank you for bringing us along on this adventure. 🤘

What a fitting book to read after a long day. And what a journey and a joy it’s been to travel along the road with you. Thanks Chad ❤

Timmy on "Truck House" starts his fires with a propane torch. Lol

Probably the best footage and film making I have seen all year, stunningly beautiful and rugged terrain coupled with an amazing film maker.

That was an awesome journey and to end it off with that almost fatal diesel heater failure, now that's some real Steven King stuff. You really had me sitting on the edge of my chair. Well done.

This is my favorite video you’ve ever done. Brilliant

Thank you for sharing to us your adventures to one of the most unhospitable places on earth. You are brave.

God bless u Chad keep up your awesome adventures my brother. You inspired alot of us out there, Thank you.

I love your films. you are an incredible cinematographer. Thank you for the beautiful imagery and fantastic production value that you provide us with

Incredible videography. You would think he has an entire film crew with the quality of coverage and editing. Well done!

10 out of 10, as always. Nothing else to say except I’m kind of stunned that the drone performed that well in those conditions.

Awesome video as always Chad. These adventures to the Arctic are so spectacular and so amazing. You really capture the beauty of the landscape thru your films. It's been a real privilege to ride along on theses amazing adventures.

What an epic journey and what a joy to get to travel it with you. Your photography and narration, Along with the thoughts that you share are very wonderful and enjoyable and it makes it for a very interesting video. I'm laying in a hospital bed recovering from open arts surgery, 70 four-year-old Grandma. And one of my dreams is to go up there. I love alaska, just love it. You be blessed and I'll look forward to the future that Install. In the meantime merry christmas happy new year and god's blessings me with you always❤

Always great videos but I must say this one is a for sure favorite. The visual effects are amazing. Please keep doing what you do. Very inspiring.

Damn! I really, really enjoyed this one! What a crazy life those people live, just amazing! Thank you for bringing it to us!

OMG....Chad! Your message to us as you watched the sunset brought tears to my eyes😢 and touched my ❤️. I wish these young people I worked with heard that message that you only need to prove stuff to you and no one else. You're a beautiful man. I've waited patiently for each episode, as I'm sure all of your followers have. Thank you for the breathtaking views and for taking us along on the journey! Prayers 🙏 🙏 🙏

I solo driven up to Dead horse in Jan. 20023 from Van. BC for a month with no heat during the night, and enjoyed freezing cold and lonely adventure.

I have to remember not to take for granted your ability to create and capture sheer beauty in a "no joke" place of destination.

Thanks Chad for sharing a "awesome world" with us. Maybe consider this trip in the summer! Blessings 👌😀

OMG!!! amazing drone shots, congratulations on achieving your goal and thanks for documenting it for us, viewers. Admiration and envy that you accomplished this in winter!

I’ve never seen footage like you provide of Alaska. Thanks for being my eyes. Your drone images are spectacular and your history lessons are an added bonus. 😊. Just found you, totally enjoying the binge.

Stunning! Can't wait to see the next episode

No better feeling than being home under a nice warm blanket in the safety of our homes and being able to watch videos like this makes you feel that much better. Keep up the amazing work Chad ☝🏼

Episode V truely epic, there is no other word to describe this leg of your adventure. Stay safe and an eye on your heater filter 👍

This is bloody grouse Chad. You cracked me up when you said, Now what do I do. I thought the same once when I tracked across Australia from south to north.

Fascinating and so magnificent 😊 More is not to say to be honest. Again and again - thank you so much for this video documentary 🙏 Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪

Wow, great video! Congrats on making it to DH. Your ability to not say uh or um is amazing.

I’ve been watching u since 2018.. and let me just say this is your best work yet. I’m proud of you bro! Keep pushing! Your a pioneer

This was my favourite video of the series. Main reason, we saw some real personality and humour come through for you Chad. I feel sometimes the commentary can be a little robotic and repetitive. This one feels like you went a bit ofd script, which was great. Epic adventure, loved it! 🤙🏼

A masterpiece video you are truly a new age trail blazer

OMG, Chad! What a stunning video!!!!!Merry Christmas and a very awesome and safe 'Living The Van Life' New Year! 🥂

I'm 76 and you inspire me. I truly believe that your never to old to dream. Now, I'm sure I'll never have the opportunity to make the same trip as you. What I can do is watch you and dream about it. I want to thank you for giving an older man, not old but, older man dream dreams. Ne careful going home.
