DUBAI WITH NO MONEY - DAY 1

what if you have zero money like zero money yeah good luck [Music] so I hope you have a good Christmas and New Year we're back and we're back in the bye look at the burj khalifa behind me there's one amazing building this challenge is gonna be a three day no money challenge just like the ones before Christmas again no subscriber helped however few subscribers have already reached out from posting on like Twitter and Instagram if you've not got me on that Simon J wills honestly I have got so much to say I am so excited for this year I have got so much fun I don't even know where to start let's start with I'm picking somebody to come on a challenge with me this month who bought merch in December there's gonna be plenty more opportunities for people to come on a challenge with me or a trip with me so we'll saw that moving forward if you've not subscribed make sure you do because there is so much coming this year so much and also look what I got for Christmas everybody knows like earphones are my thing that I don't know air pods I'm in two minds let me know in the comments what you think so goodbye let absolutely smash this one but I think it is going to be a tough one the reason I think it's gonna be a tough one because with previous ones I've sneaked in for a spar they have sleek them for food I've sneaked into different places but it's a tough one with this one because we're in Dubai you know it's a strict place and with the sneaking and I think you've got to pick your battles with that and I don't know if the bays a battle I want to pick with that so that's the first tricky thing the second tricky thing is that obviously I've been to Dubai before I don't know the place like the back of my hand I don't know the street but I do know you've got like the Burj Khalifa area behind me which is like the mall and that's all one section then you've got Dubai Marina which is like 20 miles down the road and then you've got the palm which is another 20 miles the like not the other way but it's 20 miles between them all basically so how do you get about you've got the Metro which is the Dubai like public transport but there is not a chance in hell I am sneaking on that they'll probably chop your hands off or something and I quite like my hand so yeah we're not doing that so we're literally gonna have to like I don't know your guess there's mine then you've got the food apart from potentially going into a hotel I haven't got a clue how I'm gonna get food again the Mackey's trick in Dubai I'm gonna feel about that I either to be honest honestly the more I'm thinking about this the hard that it sounded so let's just get on with it the this thing I've noticed about the by Anna be near my once last year I came for about four years got in construction is more than it's ever been here now it was bad when I came but here you've got this building here you've got all this being built over there another one at the back there there's honestly some serious construction going on ah one thing I have got to do before I leave this here there's like the fountains and there's like a water fountain show you've got to wait for it to go dark until you see that though because it is amazing right here we go around the mall now let's see how we get on in here [Music] so I just found out that statue behind me is gonna be taller than the Burj Khalifa they've been building it for two years and they hope to have it up by 2020 and it's going to be bigger than the Burj Khalifa Oh which one is it that one is neapolitan happy yeah brilliant thank you very much thank you get in free samples that's got me thinking if he's giving out free samples who else is that's so many free samples we can go thank you hi would you like to me I repeat those are coffee free yeah with milk that'd be great thank you very much oh yeah coffee thanks very much appreciate it thank you Yonex I'm not a big fan of licorice I didn't even know it was licorice but we'll try it if it's good you never know right so this one inside your mouth okay or inside your mouth yeah wait and don't break it oh wait until eventually we will enjoy the chocolate mmm and then bite it you wanna see it yeah thank you right I'm about to bite into this round I hate what is the best way to get from here to like the marina or the Atlantic the Metro cast almost for here cheapest the weight of traveling well what if you have zero money like zero money yeah good luck so if I've got more money I'm not getting anywhere you go to your embassy as you can also more funky help anyway see you later bye no word of a lie I've just sat in there for half an hour 1/8 of a 20 licorice and had a couple of coffees not only do I feel sick but before I went in there hated licorice now I love it we don't like licorice eat 20 you'll like it trust me right I've been in the mall for a bear I think I need to leave you just need to find a way how I can get from here basically speaking to that woman in the licorice shoppers mean we think about hotel transfers I wonder if there's any transfers that goal from the mall to like the palm of a marina because then I could just try and sneak on to one of the hotel transfer bosses and go there I'm going to go to the information desk and ask is there a hotel transfer no stay on and take right tears thank you very much right I'm gonna go and check out these hotel tons for this and see if we can find a good one hotel transfers this way that way thank you right in two loads of buses all variants like Emirates and there's wolves over there too it's just whether I can find one I could a get on and be going the right way where's the hotel transfer buses disarmer Marriott thank you I haven't got a clue why I keep seeing them area it's just the first one that comes to mind every time hi where's this one going which Marius is this going to Jaden by the marina no not by the marina okay no problem thanks okay let's check this guy out he's going to the marina where's it going - sorry you're not going anywhere okay no problem thanks this is an absolute nightmare there's loads of us is I'm gonna call you when I'm going I'm gonna have to Google some hotels and see where they are there's no point going just down the road boys where are you going is it going to Jumeirah where are you going Marina excuse me where are you going from here I see pacifically - we're sorry cheep-cheep yes we're about sheep and the handsome in this first arena all the crucians i want to go to like the palm or the marina or somewhere like that nothing any physical to us there's an old Showbox marina yeah check back in one of you okay thanks very much thank you Marina you know marina 270 bit ok and where does the tourist bus go does it go to the marina does it go to the palm as well or the map spring okey dokey and then it shows where the bus goes now yeah if you think these are it will take you to the monitor menu change okay thank you by the palm you go by palm no Maria noise thank you where are you going are you going by marina you'd write no you pan no no problem thank you bye tell you what this is hazel this right I'm just gonna find out on this big bus tour and that free map the girl gives me I'm gonna try and use up to get on all right this is the open happy days I think we've done that so far so good fingers crossed we've done it again we're moving so we're definitely all good now so next up whatever this bus takes is I'm gonna call [Music] just getting off the bus now fingers crossed yes thank you Happy Days we're off so I've ended up getting off at the Mall of Emirates which is like halfway between the marina and the Burj Khalifa the reason I got off there was because it's literally as far as that bus go so to go further I'd need to go on a different route I don't really want to end up in another mall to be honest I'm a bit mauled out for one day but I can try and get some more samples for me or some more free food from you that'll sort me out and then I can get on to where I'm staying tonight this place looks absolutely huge upshot I'm gonna go on try any it can you try this thank you very much no that's good try the vinegar and don't mind if I have another one dear thank you it was this piece steak yeah thank you couldn't have another one Cheers thanks very much do you have any more free samples of anything yeah I'll be honest I'm not gonna buy the box but if I could try a couple of different ones that'd be great with a cashew inside thank you thank you very much those free samples have sorted me right out don't get me wrong it wasn't a big meal but it was definitely enough to fill a play we've got an uber stand here we'll see if we can get a free ride have you got any like three right 52 would that get you a free ride tomorrow what's doing I just have you put your name email and phone number but make sure to use the ones that are registered with you okay so even though I've got an uber so 50 Durham so if the rides LA 50 dirhams Oh it will just be free why [Music] would 50 dirhams they'll get me from here do you think which is that 38 if I use that the 38 I'll still have 12 left through it just all good okay cool thanks very much anyway thank you that's brilliant that 50 B room I've got like an emergency right now so at least I'm not going to be stuck in them all talking about them all I want to get out of here but before I do apparently there's a ski slope in here so I want to check that out and this is it yeah looks pretty snazzy to be fair I think it's more for kids though to be honest it was just as good as Manchester although maybe a bit more high-tech and it is impressive that they've built a ski slope in the middle of the desert right plumb now I'm currently sat in like just like a waiting area there's like the cat park there people picking up their cars from Valley the problem I'm facing now the time is nine minutes past 8:00 at night and if you look at this it says the Mall of Emirates there and it says 6:00 p.m. is the last bus so I've well missed that so the only options I've got now is obviously if I try and get a ride with somebody or the obvious one is to use that 50 dirhams uber token that the problem is with that where do I go do I go back into Dubai or do I go to the marina it's a tough one okay so I'm just price an uber to go to Dubai Mall it is same seventy to eighty three Durham so you buy the horse I have a question right let's have a look how much the marina is so to go from all of em to Dubai Marina it costs 39 to 47 durable so the maximum I'm gonna be charged is 47 which is great because if I go in to promotions it says there Durham's 50 off so there's no risk of going over so let's get this Bakht driver is five minutes away so let's make a move Simon thank you Oh yawning in the back here how many minutes is it two to go to the marina 13 minutes perfect thank you I ain't got a clue I'm gonna do when I get to the marina but at least it's hot outside [Music] thank reamer you have a good night see you later and I have made it to the marina honestly when I was asking those buses early and if I could get a lift I thought it was luck in slumber we always come through look at the state of this soul I see it there's the marina all the buildings and then you've got all the other side as well I'm just looking at the uber app to see how much that lasts right it just cost me and this is how much it cost a big fat zero I'm telling you as I said in my 2018 recap video if you put yourself out there things just happened you couldn't write it I missed the last bus but I came across an uber stand that were given 50 theorem free rides what are the chances you've just got to put yourself out there law of attraction google it cry I'm taking a seat here the first time I've properly sat down today on these challenges I normally sit down for like half an hour year 1/2 an hour there check couchsurfing and different things to find somewhere to sleep but today it's just been non-stop so we haven't got a clue where we're staying tonight all right I'm gonna chill out here for a bit do some messages check this view by the way could be worse than there I'm gonna check my insta messages see if anybody from Dubai's message with any recommendations or anything and then yeah we'll go from there right it's been a bit I've had a fair few messages thank you so much that everybody who messages me I'm sorry I just can't get through them all it's getting super late it's literally 25

Poor Reggie. Finishes work at midnight. Needs to go home soon at 3 because he starts work early.... fuck :(

[u/TheDryerfish]

I love this dudes channel. I actually searched out a subreddit like this after watching his series. If you have th time, I highly suggest watching his crossing the USA series.

[u/JUSTAG4YGIRL]

"Ask them to deport you" lmao! Weow.

[u/movie_man_dan]

[u/bluesox]

I didn’t expect to watch the whole thing, but he’s great at editing. I couldn’t wait to see what happened next.

[u/blacklite911]

So basically, he’s like those gutter punks” in America except a bit cleaner.

[u/gianl0ca]

A couple times I tried the same thing with friends, breakfast or spa and all the time it was super cringy and never worked. This is probably all fake...

[u/kingchilifrito]

He's a thief
