Platonic friendships are so important. These are loving, supportive, quality friends. All young men need this desperately right now. May all of you find friends like these!

Just love how everyone of the airport staff were with them

I genuinely did not expect him to react that way. It was such a beautiful moment and im glad he got to share it with all of us ❤

"Welcome to place undisclosed!" is the purest thing ever

I did not expect this video to make me so emotional. Thomas does so much for others, so open, selfless, and kind. To see his wonderful friends reciprocate that back to him on his dream trip and his reaction…. truly priceless❤❤ Thomas I hope you know how deserving you are of this🥰 good job guys!!

Of ALL the adventures Thomas has had in his adult life, this one made him cry tears of joy. How adorable! I had no idea I would be crying over a SD video!

Love how Thomas was transported back to such a state of childlike wonder emotion and vulnerability in that moment after what must have been and excruciating build-up. This could easily have been a main channel episode, loved it.

5:52 I laughed out loud when I heard Stefan say, “a security person is just a friend you haven’t met yet” 😂🤣 Mr. Positivity!

I love how game everyone was, from the flight attendants, to the tour guides, to the people on the tour!

I've watched Thomas' reaction three times and tears welled up each time. His reaction alone was worth every bit of effort you guys put into making this happen for him.

I managed to find you guys! Me and my cousin were on the same tour! Dez took our picture outside of Bag End! ❤ What a day, and what an amazing thing you did!

Hi again!

this speaks volumes about the power of intention. Y'all made it through customs in TWO countries. I love how a customs agent recognizes you. And Thomas! That was huge trust factor. He knows his friends well. I got emotional when he took off his blindfold

I’m lucky enough to work at The Green Dragon Pub at Hobbiton! Best job in the world. I’m so glad you guys enjoyed it so much ❤️

I still can’t believe Steffan wasn’t an original member of the group! Such an amazing person always laughing and smiling.

I literally started crying before he even took the blindfold off haha. Was so excited for him! I wish a friend would do something like this for me. Welcome to NZ, bud!!!

His reaction was the best and most wholesome thing I've ever seen 😄

It's about time Thomas' gets his dream come true. I was crying seeing how genuinely happy his reaction was ❤

I’ve honestly had a really hard couple of weeks but seeing this made me genuinely smile for the first time in a long time. The moment when he took off his blindfold made me gasp and smile so incredibly big! You guys are amazing friends for doing this for him.

"Look over to your right and you'll see... a bunch of stuff..." Best line

Well, was not expecting a real tear on my part when Thomas took the blindfolds off.. What a moment..

That initial reaction to seeing Hobbiton for the first time, is about as genuine as a reaction as you can possibly get. You guys truly went above and beyond for Thomas. What a great moment! A perfect example of when you feed your circle with positive energy, that circle will feed you back. You guys have a great circle to count on. 👌

Love how Thomas didn’t even question how they did it😂

PLEASE do this with more people, the reaction of passengers, airport security and air hostesses was freaking adorable, and pretty much the whole team diserves their dream vacation

Thomas's inner child unleashed. I've never seen him so happy, like in this video. Great job! Best friends ever!

If you have ever watched LOTR or read those books, you can absolutely feel how amazing of a surprise this must have been for Thomas. I have tears watching him in awe. I can't wait to visit the Shire myself.

I didn’t expect him to cry that much, it was so beautiful to watch. This trip looked like a dream!

i didnt think that seeing thomas turn into a little kid out of pure happiness would make me cry

LOTR trilogy is the best trilogy of all time. I'm glad Thomas was able to go from pissed off to super happy and speechless in a matter of seconds. I also would love to go to the Shire someday!

I am crying. ❤. This was so beautiful. When Thomas gasped… MY EYES IMMEDIATELY BEGAN LEAKING

You know he is a big fan when he instantly knew where they were. His reaction is priceless.

This was probably one of my favorite videos that you guys have ever done. I could not stop laughing the entire way through and did NOT expect his reaction to be so emotional and heartwarming.

you guys really DID THAT. the best editors and friends

I love that the whole bus tour was hanging back to watch this moment, too

Watching Thomas cry like a child in my home country of Aotearoa is the best….so glad you guys tricked and surprised him …and gave him such joy…it’s well deserved…a shout out to all the folks who played along with the secret. 😊😊🐑🐑🇳🇿🇳🇿NZ

What a beautiful and magical moment, experiencing the real and raw joy and emotions from Thomas was beautiful and brought me to tears. Your channel brings me on experience I will never get to have but you all give us the opportunity to see the world in a new way and find our own ways to Seek Discomfort! Thank you for doing this. I would love to see you travel anywhere. I always enjoy when people show us the hidden dema of the world and even the US. I would love to have Thomas talk us though his experience of this trip and his thoughts along the way. What are your top memories from the trip?

I’m so happy to see Thomas so happy. Thank you all for making it happen 🎉

Was not expecting to cry over this, but as a massive LotR fan myself seeing Thomas's wonder when he opened his eyes... HERE COME THE WATERWORKS - what an incredible surprise!

I keep rewatching his reaction & every time I cry, it never fails 😭

Crying of spontaneous happiness, with sobs and weird faces, especially not caring what people around you think of, is the most releasing thing could ever happen in someone's adult life. 🤗 I am super glad you guys captured this amazing reaction and gave us back that feeling of unconditional happiness, that most of us keep locked inside our inner child. 🥰Thank you for this beautiful episode. Love from Bucharest.

You guys act like your terrible at surprises but look at Thomas! You guys always seem to reach new heights! So beautiful

Thomas and the tour guide should definitely switch lives, that would be an awesome video!

That tour guide was so sweet, I hope some way some how we get to see him again :)

Seeing Thomas's reaction was priceless. Having been to the Shire myself I can also totally understand it. I almost cried and I actually knew I would be going there. The whole movie set just has such a beautiful and serene feeling.

It was such a special honour to share in Thomas's moment of pure gratitude. Well done team! I cried like a baby and got the emotional uplift I didn't know I needed. So many blessings to all of you!!! And much, much LOVE!

YES! Revenge of the Editors! Please do this again...to Thomas...to many places becasue his reactions are priceless. And to all amazing people who helped you along the way - who knew border patrol could be so accommodating and nice! Awesome job folks x

Beautiful reaction from him! Would love to see you explore Canada! Rocky mountains, poutines, hockey..who needs more??

What a special bunch of people you guys are ❤ His smile was priceless 😊

the best one ever.. to see Thomas reaction like that , wowww

new zealand truly deserves its own episode!! we often get overlooked but we are such a neat lil country

it would be amazing if they swap lives, he was literally so sweet and spontaneous to say yea!!!!!!

Dang, you guys always come up with such heartwarming ideas. The moment he opened his eyes and realized the location, this kind of happiness and emotion, absolutely priceless. Yes, i had goosebumps and tears. So happy for him.

😂 Loved the Thomas' POV shots. Really interesting to get some insight into what he was seeing

This had me sobbing. Thomas does so much for so many people this is so cool to have something so special done for him! We love you Thomas!!

THIS WAS SO EPIC THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN ON THE MAIN CHANNEL!!! LOVE IT

Thomas always reach his limits to make content for us bless this man

I'm so happy Thomas got to experience this. He so deserved this.

video idea: thomas switches life with the tour guide

I remember seeing bits and pieces of this journey unfold on their Instagram story. Super excited to see the full video!

This is amazing. I live in New Zealand and love that you guys came here. It was so awesome to see Thomas' face when he realised where he was, even I shed a couple of tears. What an amazing surprise.

That was the greatest reaction. You guys are all amazing. The meaning of true friendship (doing such a nice thing, and having the trust in friends to be isolated for 24 hours). Awesome video.

I hope you all had an AMAZING time here in Aotearoa New Zealand. What ya'll did for your friend is 1 of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. Thomas definitely deserved this after all of the things he has done for everyone that has crossed his path. Well done team. Also well done to everyone that participated getting him from Aussie to Matamata (Hobbiton)

I absolutely LOVED this!!! That childlike awe on Thomas' face was everything, you guys are the best!!!

when he started crying my ass started crying dawg i’ve been watching y’all since 2016 i’ve seen most of it and this video was a huge step stone no one has rlly ever done anyone for him and he doesn’t do anything for himself but this was beautiful this the kinds living i wanna consist my life of

I never turn down the opportunity to argue with someone who thinks Lord of the rings is a good series of movies, however, for Thomas, I think I can do it. Glad you enjoyed your special day bud.

ok but the switching lives with the tour guide would be so much fun haha! he looks so sweet!

Tom has definitely reached full Discomfort with the blind traveling... but this video is the perfect example of your brand! Force yourself to be uncomfortable to get that amazing award in the and!

Wow! That was just unbelievable, I can't believe I cried when he finally took his blind fold off and saw what all the amazing friends managed to achieve. So deserved and Absolutely Wonderful Guys :) Massive Love and Hugs from Scotland :)

Ah I love this video so much!! How much emotions he's gone through and then the pure happiness ❤

that was for his inner child. i loved this.

The fab cooperation of everyone who crossed your path, you guys intended love, and you got supported by love all the way through. So beautiful, and the high peek when Thomas sees the outcome of the long blindfold struggle, that he is in his dream, to witness his reaction is priceless. I am going to rewatch this many more times for sure. Well done you guys, congrats! 💖💖💖💖💖💖
