(Epic orchestral music) - This is one of the
worst nights of my life. Yo, welcome to today's video. This is a big one. It's
going to be a big one. I've literally, I've
just recorded the outro to my last video, the one
where I went skydiving and tattooed myself while falling. And I'm already heading out, ready to go on this little beast. Here we go. I'll go show you. I'll take you on a tour. In fact, let's make it look cool. Three, two, one, go. (upbeat hip-hop music) (engine revving) (tires skidding)
(horn hooting) All right, so this thing goes so fast that it has a seatbelt. (Killem laughing) Then we can rock around
at least 10 mile an hour on this beauty, 10 miles an hour. All right, so I'm going
to be crossing America from LA to New York, coast to coast. Which is pretty much 3000 miles. So, I'm going to try for like,
at least around 100 miles a day which is like a month
on a mobility scooter. I think they call them Rascals here. I've got all the safety
precautions covered, look, I got my flag. (Killem laughing) Look at this, we've got brake lights, we got indicators, we got mirrors. Look at this, this thing
is fully street legal. Still got my trailer on the back, which is full of spare batteries. The scooter takes four batteries at a time I got 20 batteries. Each set of four batteries
gets me 40 miles. So in theory, I've got a
200 mile range on the thing. I've got the big backpack
there on the back with all my clothes, cables
and stuff for charging camera. Battery chargers in this bag here. Three battery chargers,
so in hotels along the way I can charge my batteries up. I've got my little bag here
with food and drink in. Oh yeah, and I'm going to be
doing this thing completely alone. Before I go, I forgot a little
extra little cherry on top. You ready? You ready, ready ready ready? Here we go, that's what
we're talking about. Got to represent, you know. I've got the key, I've
got the truck, let's go. (loud beeping) (scooter whining)
(Killem laughing) I keep getting compliments from people. Here we go. (Killem laughing) We've hit a problem. I'm 10 minutes in, I'm gliding along, I've got my music playing, I've got the flag going and
the trailer has disconnected. So that screw that was going through there and holding it on, it's just come off. The screw snapped. The screw is in there and it snapped. The hole, aw (beep). I've got some rope I think. I've kind of made a system. I've got ropes, I got
these. It should hold it. I'm kind of prepared for this. But I thought maybe this
would happen one week, two weeks in, not 10 minutes. So... (truck humming) Let's go. People keep shouting in the
street telling me I look cute. I mean, I don't know if
they're talking about me or the scooter, you
know, but I'll take it. I'll take a compliment. We've got a long way to go. Honestly, we've had a
lot of problems already, it's not looking good, but
you know keep positive, see if we can do this thing. we've got a nice steady 15 mile an hour, we've already done three miles, you know. Let's just keep rocking and
rolling and see what happens. (Killem laughing) I still can't believe it, I feel so cool. Yes! I don't know what's happened but I've stopped at traffic lights, I thought I might be
able to save some battery if I turn the ignition off and I'll wait till the
traffic lights change, turn it back on. And I don't know what's happened, but we've gone from getting
like 13 to 15 mile an hour to getting like 10. I mean, to fare that's
the fastest I've seen it. We dropped down to getting
like seven mile an hour. Battery's already showing low. Yeah, I've not even done 10 miles. I'm not even 10 miles
into the journey yet. The battery should only
have one bar missing. If we're only going to be doing
10 miles per set of batteries, then I've only got like
a 50 mile range a day which now takes me from a one month trip to a two month trip. I'm struggling to get
five mile an hour now. I keep turning the ignition off and on. Oh, we've got six mile an hour now, wow. We're going to be there in no time! (cars rushing by) (loud beeping)
Yeah! Let's try this bad boy out. Breaks off. Oh, we're going up hill,
we're starting on a hill which isn't good. 10 mile an hour, 11, 12. (cars roaring) I'm going right through
downtown LA. This is awesome. That sun's going down quick though. I think it's going to be
dark real soon, look at that. The sun is low. (distant sirens) (Killem chuckling) Look at that. (cars rushing by) So, I've just had to
change batteries again. The battery died, it's just down there. Massive, massive steep hill. The battery died on the hill so I had to push it all the way up. A really big, long, steep hill. I don't know if you can hear
me, it's really loud here. So, each set of batteries
is doing 10 miles. I've got five sets of batteries. So, the original thing is, I thought each set of
batteries would do 40 miles like it says on the website. But I think because we're
pulling all this weight, them batteries are really
heavy, we're losing a lot. So, we're getting 10 miles. Started at Santa Monica,
I've now gone over there. I've gone through downtown LA That red dot is meant to
be the destination today. It's already 4:30 PM, I've
used three of my batteries. It's not happening, is it? Let's just face it, it's not happening. Now I don't know what to do. I'll just keep going,
I'll just keep going. It's dark now, I don't know why it still looks bright on camera but I'll have to put my headlights on. I've put my headlights on! We're on battery set number three now. Everyone keeps laughing and smiling at me. I like it, it's good. It cheers people up. It's getting real dark now. It's getting really dark. I mean, I'm on like a bike lane, I don't know if you can see. I just pulled over to get my hoodie on because it's getting cold and this dude started talking to me, with like a proper thick American accent. I didn't have a clue what he was saying, but yeah, it's the first time I've ever shaken someone's hand
who's got a finger missing. And I didn't see it until I shook it. So, it caught me off guard. (Killem chuckling) Another one off the bucket list. Yeah, let's continue on my bike ride. Battery's dying, big hills. (quiet whistling) (loud zapping)
(scared grunting) (Killem chuckling)
Did I get that? Did I get that? (can lid crackling) Pulled over, pit stop. Pit stop. It's all completely wrong. It's completely wrong. I made a little wrong turn and I realized so I tried to reverse back,
ended up T-boning the trailer. And then two more times since then my bag on top has just fell off. I'm so tired. I just want
to get to this day done. I think it's all going absolutely wrong and I need to rethink my strategy. We're in the middle of (beep) nowhere I've not got a hotel. I just want to cry, day one. (beep) All right, so it's the next day. It's the next day, I don't know, I can't remember what the
last thing I filmed was. I was just so angry that we
can only get 50 mile range and I was just so tired,
it was such a long day. And I'm just thinking of things to do. I just can't. I just go into the nearest
hotel. I just crashed. I'm in the room right now. Everywhere, everything's a complete mess, batteries and chargers everywhere. I brought all my stuff in. I've never ever been
in a hotel room before that has its own kitchen. Literally, I've just
been laying here in bed, brainstorming how I can
increase that 50 mile range because it's going to be
impossible at 50 mile. If I can only do 50 mile a day, I'm just going to die in the
desert and that's a fact. At one point I need 140 miles between the hotels in the desert. So 50 miles, I'm just going
to be dead. I'm going to die. So, it's literally impossible. So, I've thought of a new idea. And that is a generator.
I've got a generator. I'm at a shop called Lowe's. Just bought a massive generator. I don't need all them batteries, I just have the generator
constantly charging the battery that's in use. I've got to go, I've got to get this back. We should be good to go. I've got the generator,
I've got the charger. Everything's good. I can just
discard some of the batteries. In theory now, we should have a vehicle. That's just like unlimited.
It's just like a car. You can keep going and going
and going unlimited miles. All you got to do is put petrol in. (Killem laughing) So, to celebrate I found this while I was out on the road. Ooh, okay. Whoa, that's... It's black. (loud crunching) (Killem gagging) (soft thudding) (uneasy coughing) (heavy breathing) Don't ask. Don't ask how last night went after that. I've shaved my beard. So, along the way you
can see my beard growing, just like a little bit of a progress thing and look at this, we've
got the new setup ready. Look at this generator! Ooh, why, that didn't sound
good. Why did you do that? But yeah, I've got the
generator set up now, I've ditched all the batteries. There's just four batteries
that are in the scooter and then I've got a charger
for each individual battery. And it's on fast charge, I don't know. It's so early, I'm up at
like the crack of dawn. I'm in I think it's called
San Demas right now. Day two. Let's get underway. Oh, before I set off, look
at this, look at this. We've got Agnes, I'm calling it Agnes. We've got Agnes pinstriped, look at this. (upbeat hiphop music) Look at this. Look at this. That is awesome. Thank you very much, Von
Hot Rod for the pinstripe. His name is actually Von Hot Rod. His real name is Von Hot Rod and he was such an awesome guy. So, thank you very much
for that, I appreciate it. Let's get underway. Day
two, baby, let's go. (scooter whining) (Killem laughing) I've not got enough room for my hat, I brought the hat for when the
weather starts getting cold. My hat wouldn't fit anywhere,
but it's a good hat. It's a good hat, you know,
so I'm going to wear it. I don't know if I'm
shouting, I got music on. I'm listening to music right now. I'm in like residential area
now, oh, it's just gone. All right, aw (beep) sake. I've just gone through
like a residential area and now it looks like an
industrial area I'm at now. Goddamn! Goddamn! I've just filled up with some gas as the Americans call it. I've just put some petrol
in my gasoline tank. We're good to go, I've got
three gallons of the stuff. We're here. Yeah! America, America, America! Bike trail, bike road. Yo, I'm getting so many looks. I'm getting nods, I'm getting
approvals from people. Laughing, smiling. Still got like over 30 days left though so wish me luck, wish me luck. 15 mile an hour, baby! We're unstoppable! We're in the mountains
now, ladies and gentlemen. The mountains, let me zoom. Mountains. I don't know what a Popeyes
is but I'm having one. ♪Okay, yeah, pull up.
Rocking at the after party. ♪ Let's go through the
drive-through, I think that's best. Ooh, burgers, burgers,
chicken, nice chicken. (voice machine talking) Heya, can I just have a
chicken burger please? Can I just have a chicken burger please? Just a classic chicken sandwich please? That's everything, just
the sandwich. Thank you. (generator rumbling) (satisfied chuckling) You know what, no, look. H street, the street is
literally just called H. (train blaring) (gasoline swooshing) Go! Yes! Please. (loud tapping) In the middle of nowhere,
middle of nowhere, and my motor dies. So, I was just riding along
and the generator just went on. I got music and I didn't hear it. So, I just filled it up and yeah. We're in the mountains now. (Killem laughing) That train went forever though. That's probably why my thing ran out. (train horn blaring) (upbeat music) I've never actually seen
one of them in real life. That was awesome. It's
everything I expected. I haven't seen no tumbleweed
yet, I'm a bit disappointed. I thought there'd be
tumbleweed everywhere. All right, so I'm on
like a weird dirt track, complete dirt track, it's not a real road. My satnav took me up this one road and apparently it's a
private road, I don't know. The lady said it's owned by Indians and I'm not allowed on it. And then the other road is
the highway right there. So, I asked her how can I get there. I'm not allowed on the highway and I can't go on this private road. And she said go on this dirt road. Oh, Jesus, Jesus Christ. Oh my God. Please, I hope I don't get stuck. The sun is coming down low now. On day two. I'm somewhere near Haugen-Lehmann I don't know if you can
hear me, oops, I zoomed in. I'm somewhere near Haugen-Lehmann. I mean, look at the mountains.
It looks so good, look. Look at that, ooh. Ooh mountains, ooh,
sunset, that's beautiful. Oh, with the flag! Oh, that looks cool! Another dirt road and I'm stuck. (generator rumbling) (loud beeping) (tired grunting) That was one of the worst days of my life. The first 60 miles were nice. And then I got onto the highway, It was mental, cars zooming past. I think we've done around 110 miles today. I wanted 120, but I just
couldn't go anymore. So, I just found a closer hotel. I need to go to sleep. I'm going to sleep, I'll see you tomorrow. Oh God. Look at my lips. I need to drink more. Morning. All right, so I'm just
driving down the road and I see this sign, look at it. What's this? "Wildlife
crossing next five miles". Turtles, or tortoises, whatever. Snakes, fox. I want to see some snakes, but then I don't at the same time. What if there's one here. Look at this, I've just
realized, look at this. When I turn my scooter on, it tells you how many miles
you've done right now. So, I'm just done 6.5 miles. You turn it off, turn it back on. I've done 171 miles in total. I bought this brand new at zero. So, I've done 170 miles
so far, which is crazy but I've got 3000 to go. Oh, look at this, look at this. The mountain just are like
piles of little rocks. It looks like you've just swept a pile of dust together but big. Yeah, I'm riding on the highway right now, I pulled over, I'm safe. I'm riding on the highway
because it's the only road. I didn't think I were
allowed on the highway. I've had to do some
research. Apparently I am. I'm just not allowed on freeways. I don't like filming on
here, so I've got to go. I love you and leave you,
and see you in a little bit. I don't know where I am,
but it's really windy. I don't know what this is either, but apparently I've got
to drive through this. "Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center." I don't know what Marine Corps
Air Ground Combat Center is but apparently I've got
to drive through it. Wish me luck. I'm not allowed through. I've got to go miles around. Why do this to me, Google Maps? Keeps sending me down private roads. (generator rumbling) I got a little bit scared there. So, basically what happened
is the power kept cutting. I'm in the middle of
nowhere, look at that, look at the road, nothing, look at the road that way, nothing. But yeah, the power
started cutting in and out. And then I figured out that one of the battery
connectors were loose. So, I've tied that up and
we seem good to go now, but it makes you realize, like what if it was
something out of my control the broke and I'm just stuck
here middle of nowhere? No scooter, no movement, nothing. You know what I mean, it's scary stuff and it makes you realize
what could go wrong. It's just, it's scary, scary stuff. Like a never-ending road. That's insane. Let me see if I can zoom in. It just keeps going and
going and going and going right over to the mountains. And I'm on it all the way,
I'm on it all the way. Damn, it's so windy! And what's this way? Nothing. Oh, what's this way? Nothing! And what's over here? Nothing! (Killem laughing) (wind roaring) (generator rumbling) It's the first thing I've eaten since that chicken sandwich
yesterday, that burger. I'm not on time. It's crazy how hot the
desert gets in the day but then at night it's so cold. The sun's just, just going
down, you can just see and I had to put long trousers on. I've got gloves on, I've got my hat. I'm going to put this
face mask on in a minute to keep my face warm. (scooter whining) I've been on this same road for
the last four or five hours. There's no one around, absolutely nothing. It's freezing cold. Every time you get to the top of a hill, there's just nothing, there's
more of nothing, look. I still got all that way to go, you see that light there? I've still got to go
all the way over there. I still got miles to go.
I've got so far to go. The sun is going down,
Where am I staying tonight? What if I don't get to a hotel? Have I just got to keep going? (gasoline swooshing) (ripcord zipping) (annoyed grunting) (beep) The engine started spluttering. So, obviously it's run out of petrol. So, I stopped, pulled over, poured more petrol in and
now it won't start back up. I'm in the middle of absolute nowhere. There's absolutely nothing anywhere. Nothing, nothing, no buildings. I've not seen a building for hours. Cars, no cars, no one's coming past. And now my engine won't work and my internet, I've got no connection. I've got no signal for internet. So my satnav's gone down. (annoyed sighing) Panic mode is kicking in. Oh, yes! Yes! Yes! Thank God, thank God, thank
the Lord! Thank the Lord! (scooter whining) No, what? What's that? What is that? I swear to God I've just seen a UFO. I'm not even joking. I'm not even joking. At first I thought it was a UFO, but then I thought, no
it's just a helicopter. And then I thought, nah,
that's not a helicopter, man. What? I swear to God
that looked like a UFO or it looked like the
world's biggest drone. I don't know, man. I had to pull over and
grab my camera. What?! I can't believe it! Civilization! I can't believe it! Civilization! It's been hours! It's been hours! It's literally been like hundreds of miles since I've seen buildings. It's beautiful. It's beautiful! Got some snacks, some drinks, got some Pringles, energy drink. I think we're about 20 miles
roughly to the next hotel. Then I can call it a day. I think the next hotel is actually in the next state as well. Ignore the hair, Jesus Christ. (Killem laughing) My lips, aw my lips are done. All right, so I'm just crossing a bridge. I don't know if you can here me 'cause I got two face
masks on, I'm so cold. We're just crossing a bridge right now. And then apparently, when I get to the other side of the bridge I'm in a different state. I think I'm in Nevada then, which is where Vegas is and stuff. Oh wait, it's not Nevada, it's Arizona. What?! Oh, I thought we
were going to Nevada. Wait, wait, wait. Welcome to Arizona! (truck horn honking) (Killem laughing)
Yeah! (Killem laughing) Woo! Finally in the hotel. I bought this bag of
food, and here's my water. Like an egg thing. I think I've lost an hour hour as well. I think there's like a time
zone change I don't know. 'Cause I think it's nearly midnight now. Yeah, I've lost an hour sleep. Great, just what I needed. I think I'm sunburnt on my face. Back of my neck as well
and just randomly this leg. So, I've just been looking. So, that's where I am right now and then if I zoom out, you can see that I've already gone a long way from all the way down here somewhere, all the way across there. But then when you zoom out even more you can see I've got a long way to go. There's a big difference
between here and the UK. In the UK, if you're in
the middle of nowhere you're usually just a
few miles from a town or a city or a village. But here, when you're
in the middle of nowhere is like you going to die if
you don't sort yourself out. This is a dangerous, this isn't a game. This is dangerous. As well as all the dangerous animals. I think the most dangerous animal I've ever seen in the UK is a Fox. If they bite it can make you bleed a bit. Here they've got like poisonous snakes and stuff roaming around. This... See you tomorrow. (sounding the US National Anthem) Got sun cream on today. Oh, ow. I need Chapstick. (painful humming and grunting) (loud beeping) 287, did I do like 120 miles yesterday? That's crazy, damn. Got another 100 to do today, so let's get going, baby. I can't remember if I mentioned it or not but the reason I wear this in the day is because it keeps the sun off my head. So I don't get sun stroke. It's nice, you know it
keeps you cool in the day, keeps you hot in the night. So, I'm driving along, I'm thinking I'm in the middle of the
desert, absolute nowhere, right? And then all of a sudden
boom, massive lake! Beautiful, houses
around, people live here. There's boats over there. I can see jet-skis over there. It's massive! It goes right over there and right, right, right down there. I just looked on Google maps and apparently it's Colorado river. It's a river, not a lake. I've got to have this thing on 'cause it stops the wind
hitting my chapped lips. And they're so sore. Got the flat road there, and now I've got to take
a right which is up there. (tense orchestral music) Yes! Yes! Oh, this is crazy. This is crazy, look at this. I'm in the mountain. (Killem laughing) What! I'm in the Arizona mountain. Some good news, some good news. Chapstick, I got Chapstick. I've also got a large macaroni salad. I've never had a macaroni salad before so let's give it a go. I'm just at a random petrol
station, gas station, whatever. We've got a chicken over there. River Island Market. I like your macaroni salad, thank you. Peace, I'm going to eat this
and then Chapstick my lips up. Yeah boy! Damn! Damn! I don't know why it don't
look that good on camera. It's so windy though. It looks amazing. You can just see the Lake
over there and the mountains. Damn! America is massive. (generator rumbling) (Killem giggling) (Killem laughing) I can't believe it! Police pulled me over. They pulled me over. he was just laughing. I told him everything what
I'm doing, where I'm going. He says he got like 10 phone calls, People ringing in saying I'm
on the highway on my scooter. And I said there's no other way for me to get where I'm
going other than the highway. He asked for my license
so I gave it to him. And then he walked off with it, that's when I filmed the car behind me. And then he come back laughing, just says, "I can't
even run checks on this 'cause it's from England." And then he escorted me for
about two or three miles and then he drove off. (Killem laughing) He spoke to me, he's got a speakerphone. He says, "Good luck, dude. See you later." (Killem laughing) That was insane. Yeah! What?! How far have I gone? How long have I been driving? (upbeat hiphop music) (generator rumbling) Uh-oh, uh-oh. (heavy breathing) (scooter alarm blaring) Thank you
- Thanks man, thank you. - Thank you very much. - Okay, good luck man. - Have a good night, thank you. Oh my God. (tired panting)
Jesus Christ. I can't believe what's just happened! (annoyed grunting) So, the police pulled me over. He escorted me into a resting area because I was on a road
I weren't meant to be. He gave me this warning, he
gave me this written warning. I explained it was a big mistake. I didn't know I weren't
meant to be on the road. He understood, he just
gave me the warning. So, he escorted me to a resting area. Where truckers go and sleep. He said if I go back on that
road, he's going to arrest me. And there was no other way
to get onto a normal road. So, I found two Mexican
guys with a pickup truck. I've just paid them $20 each. We've just brought the scooter here. So, I'm going to put
my trailer back on now and keep going I guess. I think I've still got
like 30 miles to go. That was eventful. (Killem laughing) (scooter whining) (annoyed sighing) I'm completely stuck. There's absolutely nothing anywhere. I've tried pushing it,
I've tried pulling it, tried full ball power, try and push it and it's completely stuck. I literally have 28 miles of this road and it's the only way to the next town without going on the road
that I'm not meant to be on. I'm a mile and a half in
and this has happened. Literally nothing around (sand scraping) (wheels rustling) (sand crashing)
(beep) (loud rattling) (struggled grunting) (struggled grunting) (beep) (struggled grunting) (beep) I can't believe it, we're on actual road. Oh, whoa, this is like flooring. The dirt path's there, I'm on actual road. Honestly, I thought that was it. I honestly thought that was it. I was going to be stuck and I was going to have to
abandon the scooter and walk. I'm not going on any
dirt tracks ever again. Honestly I thought the worst I was freaked out so much. I just kind of went into
like adrenaline hawk mode. I think I broke the seat. The seat, look, it's all messed up now. So, that's not good. I don't
know what I'm going to do now. I'm going to just keep
going on the road a bit and just get there man. This is one of the
worst nights of my life. Oh, thank God. Thank God I got home. Well, thank God I go to a hotel. I'm going to stay at this
hotel now for two nights. I need a day off after that day. I need to recover from that, need to keep putting Chapstick on. I need to hydrate up, eat some more food before I get back out there 'cause it's a dangerous game. Anyway, I've just had a shower, I'm going to get in to bed. I'll see you in two days. (loud beeping) All right, so it's been two days since the absolute tragic
day that just happened. I basically just spent
the whole of yesterday sulking in my hotel room. Just kind of just laid there, curtains shut, in the dark, thinking why am I doing this? What's my life come to? My lips are just in pain, I've got cold sores coming. My seat's still broke.
If you look at the seat, it just kind of does this now by itself. There's no stopping it. But it's all right, we've still
only got 2,500 miles to go and I've got to put up with a dodgy seat. (beep) So, I just laid there in the
bed yesterday, just sulking and I thought, you know what,
this is a trip of a lifetime. Let's just get on with it. So, I went to Walmart,
I bought a new hoodie. I thought I'd go with the high vis colors so people can see me. Got some new shoes
'cause mine were wrecked. These are just $10, $10, what? Got some new gloves as
well, a bit thicker. I need them on this morning
'cause it's freezing. Oh yeah, and another thing,
this happened to the bike since we got stuck in the sun. The brake light's out. These lights work, these all don't work. The indicators, the brakes
light, everything don't work. And I've had a look. It's 'cause all these
cables here have snapped. So, going to have to fix that tonight. I've only got 80 miles today which is a short one compared to normal. So, I'll get there, I'll fix the cables. There's nothing I can do about the seat. Setting off from here
which is Kingsman I think. I'm going to go into a
town called Seligman. I'm drinking Arizona in Arizona. (Killem laughing) Bucket list checked off. Oh God! (generator rumbling) I don't know what's happened. Jesus Christ it's cold. I've just put a thermal thing on. I got three t-shirts on,
a sweater and this hoodie and it's still cold. I walked to Walmart yesterday in shorts. What's happened? I feel like I'm near The Grand Canyon. I'm not sure though,
I've seen signs for it. And look at this, look, look, look. Look at the mountains over there. Don't they just look like
Grand Canyon type mountains? Look at this view. The only problem is I got
zero signal on my phone so I can't check how close I am to it. I've always wanted to see it though. I've got this massive microwave
pack of Mac and cheese. I'm looking forward to
eating that later as well. (Killem laughing) So, I've been on this same
road all day, all day. It's Route 66. It's called Highway 66. So, today I've done 80.6 miles. (scooter whining) Police again, three times, one trip. (ominous music) (loud buzzing) My scooter's gone. My scooter's been taken away
and I've been sent home. I've been sent home back to England. (Killem laughing) Goddammit, it's not possible. It's not possible. It can't be done, too many
people calling the police. Thank you for watching. Make sure you subscribe if you're new. Smash that light button,
I really appreciate it. Thank you for watching. Peace.
