somebody once said that "Everybody should go on an adventure"
It doesn't matter if it is big or small
goes to plan or does not at all
As long as it takes you out of your comfort zone and you experience something new.
So this is the story of my greatest adventure so far
Let's start at the beginning I hope you enjoy it as much as me
Ingredients for an adventure!
Freedom
I passed my driving test so I've got at lot of freedom
Friends
Now I've got to find a friend to come with me!
hello
why have you got the camera out?
so I want to go on a road trip, will you come?
when?
on the 24th of June (My Birthday)
that is the weekend and I might be working
but I will sort things out!
ok sounds good, it is going to be so much fun!
Bye bro!
and the last ingredient is
a challenge
this is Ben Nevis
It is the tallest mountain in the UK
and we're gonna climb it!
the mountain at the other side of the country
it is a long drive so we will stop at different places along on the way
but that means we will have to leave really early
bye mum
drive safely
love you and happy birthday
thank you!
morning
ready to go?
right so I thought it would be fun to stop here
It is a place called 'Colemere' I use to run around the lake here
Tommy was sleeping in the car so this will wake him up
do you want to go for a run?
I do
we have to get changed
he is stripping in public!
We did film our run but you will find out later why I don't have the footage anymore.
So instead just try and imagine us running around this beautiful lake.
We are done now so back to Curtis after the run.
Just having a quick break and then we are going to meet my old school friends.
Tommy has never met them before
It is going to be an experience for me
let's see if they actually like me
So with that we set off to my old boarding school and my friends were there to meet us.
what do you think of the school?
it looks like an orange Hogwarts
Being here brought back a lot of good memories and also a strange sense of nostalgia
it felt like no time had passed which is really good
we had a great time with my friends
before we knew it it was time to say goodbye!
bye!
bye Curtis!
And then just as we were leaving I realised
We had lost my GoPro Hero 4
I am worried about the footage we had on there and it is an expensive camera
and we don't know where it could be because
we have checked everywhere
I don't understand how we lost it
he is right we did check everywhere, I went into all the shops and gave them my phone number
I said if you find a GoPro give me a call
I've had no calls so someone must have stolen it
Quick update: we carried on searching but we couldn't find the GoPro
so we went to the supermarket and bought some meat
and we are going to have a BBQ!
because we spent so long searching for the GoPro we were very late
so we had to get to the campsite as soon as possible
that is a nice view, look at that!
yay!
so this torch is very special because it's not just a torch
well it is a torch as well
But you can hit people with the other side, so if someone attacks us
yeah exactly
you wouldn't want Tommy to hit you, unless he did that
get away from me! And then I knock myself out...
One day into the trip we're relaxing by a beautiful lake halfway up the country
not everything has gone right so far but I think that's all part of the adventure!
we have got to get up early tomorrow as it is time to climb Ben Nevis!
so it is another early start this morning it is 4:30am
thank you
I didn't sleep very well last night because we pitched the tent on a hill
which I think was a bad idea because no one else has put their tent near us
the nearest tent to us is over there
but they put it so they are sleeping down the hill
we're sleeping sideways down the hill
we had a five-hour journey ahead of us so we packed up the tent and jumped in the car and left.
so we have stopped at a services
I found a McDonald's
yes we found our first McDonald's!
the first Mcdonald's I have found all this trip
I want a mc muffin meal!
yeah!
Are you enjoying your Mc Muffin?
yes it is great
so when I was in there I really needed some batteries for my microphone
they are really weird batteries, hardly anywhere has them
so I asked if they did and the only batteries they had were the ones I wanted!
they were really cheap as well because they couldn't sell them!
that is so good!
So I have got some batteries for the microphone now
we are going to drive the rest of the 140 miles. We will see you there!
so we've made it
haven't we Curtis
finally!
we are just getting ready and changed into warm stuff
he is just doing up his new boots
Dewalt Brown Boots
that doesn't look too good
it's about 12am now we were meant to get here at 10am
It takes about eight hours to climb at the mountain
which means we are either get down here at 8pm or do the steeper path
I think we should do the steeper path.
we are doing the steeper one
let's do it
right so that is where we were meant to be 'The Visitor Centre'
you follow the path all the way up there
but we've ended up here at the the youth hostel
This is slightly steeper
we're going to go all the way up and then obviously up the mountain
do you know what song I want playing now?
what?
the song from Ice Age when they start travelling!
guys I would like you to meet my new friend Stephen
Stephen
Stephen
say hello
Stephen doesn't want to say hi
this scenery is unreal guys it looks awesome!
that specific section right there is going to be my mating ground
the girls would have to travel a long way to mate with you won't they?
we just got told to put our hoods up
because it is -5 degrees at the top
so our ears would get really cold
I am very zoomed in
nearly at the top
one of the guys said it is about another 20 minutes
we are seeing snow and it is really cold
my hands are red
it is actually quite comfy Rock
he is crazy and dehydrated
he is going a little bit insane
we have been seeing all these at the top
We are not going to balance some rocks!
what was that Curtis?
it is nearly as big as that one
really?
it is all about perspective, because that is further away
yeah I need to go like this don't I
see it is really big now
so big!
we could go skiing Tommy!
we just couldn't!
we are at the top?!
together?

we made it to the top!
we are the tallest standing people in England
unless you are on a plane
no tallest standing people
but you can stand on a plane
you mean on land
we are the tallest standing people on land in the UK at the moment
is that ok?
and also thank you for 15,000 subscribers on my youtube channel
so this is like a bit of a celebration
so thank you guys for all the support
now we have to go back down
as we were walking down the mountain I remember feeling a great sense of pride
that we had achieved the challenge that we set out to do and we'd done it together.
I'm definitely going to remember this adventure for a lifetime
you
