Knocking on Doors… to Fly A Stranger Around the World (ENDED IN AFRICA)

how amazing would it be if we just leave you here tonight am i okay there is a possibility i feel eaten by [Music] we are in dublin we came here to give away the ticket that we worked so hard to get that around the world ticket and we're going to be knocking on people's doors here and asking them a simple question do you want to go on an around-the-world ticket for seven days starting in two days all right let me get you up to speed last week amar traded his way from a paper clip i'm trying to trade a paperclip all the way to an around-the-world plane ticket he literally pulled off the impossible our challenge just ended we just did it what and his final objective to celebrate being able to travel freely for the first time in his life while wanting to surprise someone with this ticket he worked so hard to earn was to go knock on random doors give the ticket away to a complete stranger and immediately fly off on this week-long trip to three different continents the locations of which you'll find out along with this lucky stranger but going door-to-door is a very difficult way to approach someone walking up with cameras and putting them on the spot from the comfort of their own home is likely going to generate a lot of mixed reactions so to start this adventure off amar chose to ask strangers in the city of dublin ireland why are we in ireland because irish people just freaking rock every irish person that i know is the coolest so i keep saying we who who is we because bryce is not with me anymore i'm joined with flo who is a s3 subscriber and an aspiring creator and i asked her do you want to join me and help me capture this adventure and be a part of it and she said yes yeah we're just gonna get started see how the pitching goes this is a little scary hello how are you hello hi my my name is ammar and i am making a short film around spontaneity it's a social experiment where i'm offering a complete stranger an around-the-world trip that goes onto three different continents now i'm working every day you know you have to like take time off yeah good luck with their project thank you no i'm moving to london okay i know where he is where are you going thank you sorry i'm not really anything for that no worries thank you he has no idea where he just well you just passed on uh it's gonna be a numbers game we're just gonna keep doing this a lot what's up man are you missed here yes oh my gosh we have an around-the-world ticket that i want to offer to complete stranger by just knocking on people's doors it has to be someone who says yes outside of it knowing that it's a youtube channel or oh wait i speak why did i speak it's a week-long trip starting wednesday it's a week i should act dope i thought you would give it to us anyway you're the first person to come down and actually talk to us so it props to you i'm going to make you a gift card to seek discomfort right now really yes this is so believable guys that's why you love irish people they're so endearing they're so just so freaking cute [Music] this is day two today's day today we have to make this happen today so let's see and get someone let's go i never go through this anxiety not knowing who's gonna pop out is the hardest part so super nerve-wracking hello how are you and basically what i have to offer is a trip around the world with a stranger that will say yes would you like to go on an around the world trip and who are you next there's nobody hanging on to the next one i am looking for someone on an around the world trip oh man if you caught me like 10 years ago before i had three kids i'd be all over that hello guys this is the reason we won't be doing it hello hi how are you hi my name is amar hi hi and i am trying to find someone who will say yes

cat i've always wanted [Music] um yeah peter has headphones on he has no idea what i'm uh talking about right now we're discussing the potential of leaving him he'd hate me for it no or maybe not i

his life [Music] hello i'm too excited right now tomorrow we're gonna go to this other village that is more for like tourists want to see the maasai but this is actually like where he grew up like this is the real deal this is not like where tourists go to see the maasai dance and all of that so we made a slight change of plans and peter has no idea hi my friend how are you omar his name is

world like the rest of us and this was the first time he'd truly been able to do that jumping around from country to country while creating a completely new friendship with peter was an incredible way to celebrate this new freedom 2021 was filled with ups and downs for us starting the year with the whole world shut down to bit by bit feeling like we're able to operate at our full potential again has felt both freeing and revitalizing from a creative standpoint we have so many learning lessons from these past two years that we are going to take some time to digest and reflect on to come back next year more intentionally than ever before the dna of yes theory has and is changing and we're honestly feeling excited to swim in the direction of that changing current rather than trying to swim against it we have so many new and exciting things to come so thank you for being here and watching all the way to this point it truly means the world to us happy holidays and we'll see you in 2022 ah
