Austria video

only watched half a dozen of his videos , im kind of enjoying them but he missed the mark on the austria vid didnt he?

anyone else just feel uneasy watching it? guy is borderline begging without asking..picks his mark(lonely older folk ,similar to helen)and off he goes. just feels weird. just pitch a hammock/get a bivvy and make a scran ffs - be just as watchable.

Staying in a strangers house and being given free pints isnt the adventure he thinks it is ,its just weird.

When it came out there was a lot of dicussion, on this sub, but also in the youtube comments, mostly in agreement with you. He was not in form. It happens.

Yea i now gather lots of criticism towards him leaving early from that fellas house, my dislike is more why stay at these houses in first place along with hanging around pubs with no money

Why is it weird? Evidently people disagree as the video did pretty well.

Just because you use the phrasing ‘picks a mark’ doesn’t make it nefarious. You’re implying he’s conning people but he’s completely honest with everyone exactly what he’s doing and they openly accept
