Disclaimer: Any nasty comments will be deleted and the user permanently blocked, without hesitation. Thanks for watching and we hope you enjoy the video. Such a shame this major storm kicked in when it did. Also the fact the warning came so late. I had been checking the weather forecast for days and it was just moderate rain. Anyway, none of what happened is the manufacturers fault. This was a major wind event and only a 4 season Hilleberg would have stood a chance. Enjoy the video. ❤️AB

What a night,Tony😱!! You did all you could to make everything secure; it was just no match for Mother Nature. Did you ever find out how high the winds got during the night? When you first got in the tent and had to get up to go out to see what was flapping, I was begging you to get in the car!! Glad you heard me!😆 Very entertaining video🥳 So sorry you lost your crappy tent and great tarp. I saw Luke review that tent recently. He had major leaking issues. I thought “uh oh” when I saw it. All’s well that ends well! We love your adventures and Bruce.😘 Till next time, Your North Carolina girl, Harriet

Large tarp in wind......problematical at best...hug amount of force being exerted on fabric, ropes, archer points. . Would have been interesting to see if outcome would have been different with a "four season" tent and their stronger poles.

That sudden wind gusts scared Bruce instantaneously ,that makes camping more exciting and comedic.Knocking your gears during the incident just hilarious. Keep the fun going though.

You never know what will happen. How I remember being homeless and having to deal with terrible situations like this many times!

I always appreciate your honesty and determination. This is a real life example of weather severely changing and how people can be forced to make difficult decisions. I’m glad you and Bruce were able to stay safe.

Hello Tony, I usually watch your videos at night when I'm done with work, because they help relax me. I even open a beer at the same time you do. However, this was the most stressful camping video I have ever seen. lol. I was right there with you worrying about the tarp and the tent, and of course you and Bruce. Can your next video be a little bit more relaxing? I think you need it, and damn, I know I do too! Love your work, and your channel. Cheers, -Aaron

It's also appreciated that you do longer videos.

What a trip! You're both safe that's the main thing. Bruce's morning snuggles are just the best - what a cutie.

I love that you're down to earth... I love how well-behaved Bruce's is he is a character. I love the rain and I love you putting up with the rain for your subscribers. Can't wait to see your wife in a video or two! Thank you for the great time.

I have a mini van and I have thought about doing that . We went camping on the outer banks and the wind and rain came and it was blowing campers and tents everywhere . In fact we tied tents to trees and a fence running around campground. One dome tent flew like a bird . You are always entertaining and Bruce has a heart of gold to stay by your side .

hehehe. Having a great time, going along with you and Bruce on this windy adventure. You laugh and I laugh with you. I say that, despite troubles, if you are laughing, you are making good memories. P.S. I love the rain and storms, It makes me feel closer to my father, who I recently lost to Alzheimers. He loved storms and we watched them together, in the dark, when I was a little girl. Thanks! -Hollie

I don't remember anything quite like this episode where everything keeps getting a little bit worse until everything implodes and you retreat to your trusted truck. I thought you just might pull it off right to the end. Lots of suspense and excitement. Bruce had complete confidence in you keeping him safe. Thanks for posting.

I love disaster movies :) Greetings from Switzerland

Brother you make the best videos , therapeutic

I really like it that you put the good and the bad on video and let us watch. Bruce is amazing. My standard poodle died two years ago ( she was 14 ) and so watching you and Bruce makes me smile and cry.

Yes we relax while you Tony and Bruce do all the work.

No worries, you showed how hard it is to camp in a hurricane. Good job, great video. Glad you and Brucie are safe!!!

I'm so sorry about your tarp. Hard lessons learned. Such a shame Tony.

I love your attitude!! After this disaster, you are still smiling and making us laugh. Thank you. On another note, my favorite expression from you is the one when you look back at the camera after you release Bruce for his meal with “Go ahead on, boy.” Not crushing- just saying how sweet that expression is in that moment when you look back at the camera. Proud Papa!!

Very exciting video. Good sound. Thrills, chills, and spills. You and Bruce are quickly becoming an internet sensation.

I never thought I would be on the edge of my seat over a camping video haha.

It would not be camping with AB if it wasn't this exciting. Love Love Love the vibe. You are the real deal and Bruce is a real trooper!!

Hello Tony! That was a beautiful spot, and for most occassions, a good setup. Over the years, I've done some adaptations to my camping setups for wind and rain, and what I've settled down to is have three things - have a tent big enough to do everything during bad weather, have the tarp hug the tent and minimize the the points where the wind can go between the tarp and tent, and use bungee cords to tie the tarp down - if the wind is such that the tarp will bow in/out - having the bungees make for a more "forgiving" system in terms of stresses and strains. Regardless, having that plan of retreat incase things go bad is the best! Keep up the adventures and thank you for the channel!

These kind of trips are the ones that you remember. When everything goes smooth and as planned you won’t remember those trips. Thanks for sharing your trip with me .

Yes yes yes. My dude. I was waiting on this. A man of your word. I love it.

Sorry you and Bruce's trip got ruined by the weather. Just glad your both safe and sound.

The guy who does "The Outdoor gear review " had that tent. It didn't really work all that well

Thank God for your safety and such a volatile atmosphere

You help me sleep man, its so peaceful watching you and Bruce.. But u give that good boy that food!!! He stares like my German shepherd waiting for you 😂

I really enjoy your videos and different gear ideas. I laughed at your facial expressions everytime the huge gust of wind came in felt like I was there doing same thing. I truly love watching Brucie in the ocean and jumping over the rocks. You are a great team together. I will keep watching for sure.

I love these videos so much, so relaxing and just so informative for the products to buy , keep up the amazing things you do , and we all love Bruce, I’ve only come across you the last 2/3 weeks and binged watched all of your videos, can’t wait for more amazing content much love

Got to give credit where credit is due.... Total thumbs up.....He didn't back down from a good storm..... Just a thought- the truck may have been a good wind break.

The last one was a totally epic one ('the one with the frozen shoelaces') and beautiful as ever. Can't wait to see what Robin's got under his hood for this one, the intro looks very promising. Going to indulge this one with some pancakes for dinner. Also quite green and lush in NZ in winter (at some places), be-a-utiful! Keeps amazing me. Many thanks for sharing the adventures and best regards from the NL.

Brucie is adorable! What a trip! I’m a new subscriber from 🇬🇧 and thoroughly enjoying your channel - never knew that watching some bloke called Tony, cook steak, have an occasional cigar and craft beer, all while facing the elements in beautiful landscapes, with his trusty sidekick - would be so entertaining! Thanks so much for sharing with us all 😊

Mother Nature monster stomped your campsite, but left Brucie’s water bowl in place. Brucie had complete trust in you and seemingly slept well knowing you’d both be okay. Thank heavens for your truck. Keep calm and carry on camping. Love your channel.Thanks for all the effort you put into entertaining us.

So sorry about your dog 🐕.Read Rainbow Bridge .To Tony your videos have The best sound .rain wind cooking ,awesome job ..Thank you.Bruce your great God Bless

Me and my wife camped in a situation like this many years ago. The wind was unbearable and the weather wasnt much better. Going home at that point was not an option. We dont give up to easy. I parked the truck on the side where the wind was beating our camp to death. our vacation suddenly went like clockwork and we had a good time even though the conditions were as bad as they were. the truck made a great windbreaker.

Exact same thing happened to me once, went from 28 degrees and sunny to 8 degrees, windy and rainy. Tarp we put over the two tents tore off and collapsed, then one of the tents also collapsed (with me in it!!). We were so mad we tossed everything in a dumpster and left, worst camping trip ever.

Beautiful location, going to enjoy the whole video now :)

We are so glad you had the truck for comfort and safety!!

You recently asked in one of your videos for recommendations and I have one, don't respond to trolls or even acknowledge their nasty remarks - they get a warped kick out of knowing that you read it and that it upset you - the best way to treat them, is to ignore them.

Great video's man keep em' coming . Love your dog Bruce the way he wants his food but won't eat till you say brilliant. AND KEEP THE RAIN VIDEO'S COMING. 👍

Great video even if the mini hurricane made a mess. I doubt much of anything would of held in those winds. A spare tent and tarp my have got you through another day and night. All in all, you came, saw and killed it! “The devil said to Tony, “you can’t handle the storm”! Tony said, “I Am The Storm! Hah 😡

Great Video Tony , Be Well my Friend ,and you to Bruce !.

@chalion8399

Agreed about the facing of the vehicle. Having it facing into or away from the wind would make the tarp more like a parachute then as a roof. No amount of anchoring would have kept it intact. Course, being in an open area near a coastline when facing a storm front, looks to have been not ideal. You'd probably need to have been near a natural wind break instead. Lesson learned. Glad Bruce liked being in that area. Looks like a wonderful location.

Fun no matter what. Enjoyed the video Tony and Bruce.

The wind wouldn't bother me ... it's the thought an object flying into the tent that scares me. I would sleep in the truck.

Great scenery and always nice to see a dog enjoying himself in the water.

Wow. I’m in the uk and got caught in a storm, I and the tent managed to survive but some campers were not so fortunate. I have a very strong tent and always pitch well near a natural wind breaker. I had the car but did not have to get in, it was a close call though. It just proves how important the gear you use is.love the videos.👍🏽👏🏽👏🏽

The view and bay were stunning until the storm hit. So sorry you lost some equipment, but glad that you and Bruce stayed safe. Amazed how calm you stayed
