TL;DR: it's Tek Syndicate. When addressing Logan and Pistol's alleged misappropriation of funds in 2016, Linus said, "I haven't worked with anyone over there since HighLANder." It's in this older WAN show with Taran and Sevadus: kzread.info/dash/bejne/imWqmappfq3dddo.html. I don't know the one individual who they're specifically referring to who treated the whole thing like a competition, but the one who ran off on Luke is Jimmy, Tek Syndicate's old editor. They mention that in the LTT HighLANder video.

I think the only time is when you are hiking with people you have hiked with dozens and dozens of times and you all know each others limits and even then the "competition" is surface level and bottom line you look out for each other make sure everyone is safe. Hiking in the middle of nowhere is no joke.

Luke walking down a mountain channeling the spirit of Doom Guy Such a realistic discussion. It made me appreciate how my friends and I deal with each other all the time. I usually just take our butting heads one day and rubbing shoulders the next for granted but this kind of reminded me that it’s only that way because of our mutual conscious decision to be patient with one another.

It's always nice to hear grown men admit to crying because of something that was apparently a heartfelt emotional HR issue. I already felt that you all at LMG had heart and soul, but hearing that was the capstone/cherry on top. I wish I could have worked for a company like LMG back in my younger days. I wish more companies were like this. Especially when considering what is about to come down the pike, it sounds like such an adventurous journey. It's nice to be reminded that the company behind the videos I enjoy isn't a soulless and heartless entity. You guys rock. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to take a trip down memory lane.

I really respect how well you treat your team and how open you are about the inner workings of the company, it's really interesting to hear stories like this where you've struggled at times and how you've overcome or worked past those issues. What I really notice is that staff at LMG for the most part tend to stick around, so many of the original team still remain and that speaks volumes about you and how you run the place. Kudos!

I feel like I’m starting to say it on every one of your videos, but I love how open you guys are. Too many people don’t open up about the hard parts of life, which can cause people to get deluded about how life works. What I saw here was true friendship and mutual professional respect.

It's usually somewhere in the 20 to 40% range with 30% or less being considered healthy.

Im kind of amazed that there are people who have never gone Hiking in some way… here in Germany its just such a standard vacation activity. Like I don’t live in a mountainous area but when I’m on vacation we usually go hiking 10-15km. Now I’m not well trained at all and I usually sound like a steam locomotive on the first few hikes (I’m a tall fat guy that should tell you everything) but I never experienced altitude sickness not even on the Zugspitze, well I got to admit I haven been mich higher than that so I may be susceptible at higher altitudes… Now I kinda wanna know what (North-) Americans do on vacation if not hiking, visiting towns or relaxing…

Having done above tree line hikes at both 130 pounds as well as 250 pounds, I can confirm, being heavy at altitude SUUUUUUUUUCKS. Like, all the way, no joke, as sucky as sucky gets sucks. Doing it at 130 pounds though, just a hop and a skip to the summit. Lol.

9:30 this is why you fuel properly when you hike. You have to eat frequently to maintain a fast pace while hiking.

Every professional maverick needs people close to them that can and will call them out when they push to far... They might not be right in the end, but everyone needs that person to create a point of reflection that pushes them on or makes them think twice. Pretty sure, outside Yvonne, Luke is Linus' counter balance. Regardless of title when Luke says, "Dude we gotta talk" Linus respects what comes next regardless of if he agrees. I also get the impression that Linus encourages that self-ownership (past trainee period) throughout LTT so I respect his ability to engender loyalty and commitment. Wish more companies worked like that.

Almost an hour later helping her down in awful downpour and repeating same answer about where her friend I walked around an edge and stopped dead in tracks because I saw the guy few hundred meters down - running - and not having a single look behind. She was suddenly happy “do you see him?”, I could only say “yes”, she came around and stopped, and simply said “oh”. And that was it. Guy later tried to explain his stupidly “intelligent” way of reasoning that the sooner we all got down the sooner we’d be safer and he didn’t think for a moment that I also wouldn’t run down leaving his girl behind.

I live in the front range and hike all the time. If you are ever hiking on a mountain and feel like you are lost, just head downhill.

loving the chemistry

I'm shocked to hear that experience was not fun considering who was involved! Shocked I tell you!

@@cbygelightbulb It's a cracked shell of its former self, but it still exist. Most of the problems of that channel came from Logan, and Pistol misusing company funds for personal stuff, and then not owning up to it thus leading to distrust, along with accusing others of not doing work, when they were not getting paid.

Pikes Peak is higher than anywhere in BC, and there's a road to the top. You could beat this record by driving an RV full of computers up a road in Colorado.

Luke deserves shares or a partial partnership , i think Luke is talented enough to start his own media group!!

Their friendship is why I listen to the WAN show

I remember doing a crazy hike with a friend once (he was a bit overweight) and he was doing good until we had to go back to the car. It was raining so i was like we have to try and get to the car before lightning hits and he just wasnt having it lol We've been friends since middle school but man was he mad at me. He was like "man you know im fat why would you make me do this?" lol Once in the car he apoligized and thanked me for taking him and he never thought hed be able to do a hike like that. Years later he still brings it up, sometimes the worst memories are the best ones bc you survived something so crazy and its even better when you share them with people you care about. LinusXLuke

Adversity is the best character development. And when you have a single example of how you’ve grown as a person, it makes an amazing story. Hiking/backpacking/portages are strong candidates for these kinds of experiences.

I love these little Canada moments. Extremely angry Linus, “Excuse me, Pardon?”

I think the maddest I've seen Linus on this show would be when he was discussing Nintendo's relatively recent crackdown on smash Bros tournaments, whether or not it was intentional, he did not hit the bleep button That was probably the first time in a long time. I've heard Linus actually said the f word instead of it being bleeped out

Luke is the ultimate bard for carrying everything

I never saw or heard of any of this. I think a "documentary" style take on this would do really well on the channel . I'd watch.

8:32 Linus wanted to laugh so much but spent like 10 seconds holding it up. I wish I got that selfcontrol

All relationships are work, so true. Way I see it, the only way you're not going to butt heads at some point is if you don't genuinely care about each other and value the friendship/relationship. If you can just walk away from someone the minute you aren't perfectly in sync, did you ever really value them in the first place?

That was a look a pure fucking disdain. If looks could kill we would have just witnessed a murder.

Luke and Linus being such good friends Luke just accepts that he gets thrown under the buss from time to time.

well to be honest, ignoring he does own a major share of LMS, Linus has looked after Luke more than most close friends even I know would look after anyone I know or even myself

​@@babygorilla4233from what I know about the situation they are describing in the video Linus handled that the absolute best way he could have because then the anger was only short lived, had Linus not ran ahead then that entire thing would have been for nothing and Luke probably would have been far more mad once he learned that entire ordeal was a complete waste of time. And I'm fairly confident Luke understands this, which is why he isn't too bothered now by the events that transpired

I always thought Luke looks like he could be brother of Thor. The thumbnail picture confirms this.

Luke: I was not impressed by the magical healing of nearby lightning. Thor: Am I a joke to you? (11:00)

I 100% expect the guy that was not expecting everyone to make it to be Logan from teksyndicate.

"What's your worse LTT experience" - "Well, there was that time I almost died on a mountain"

Relationships regardless of the type they are should require a lot of work on your part. If not than you most certainly are not carrying your own "weight" of that relationship and are taking advantage of the other(s) in said relationship. That being said I have been married for over 20 years, have owned my own company for about 10 years, so I have a fair bit of experience on this topic. I completely agree with what Linus said about step back and take a moment to reflect on your relationship, if things feel "too good" or too easy". Same things can be said if those relationships feel too hard or really bad, might want to step back and figure out what is causing the troubles.

You can love each other and still have a good fight every now and then 🤣

I didn’t realize how much of a unit Luke is until that clip haha I can see why Linus might have been a tad concerned :)

I really enjoy Luke and Linus’s dynamic

Didn’t have time to finish the video and missed what mountain they went up. That said, I’ve been up to 17,000 feet and I still fear altitude sickness. I’ve heard it can just hit you out of nowhere, no matter how much you train. Scary stuff.

The thumbnail shows the evolution of Luke from angry to tired
