[tecrolon3000]

Hello Im 18 and from Germany.

Im very impressed by your journey. I wonder about your motivation to do this? What made you walk alone thousands of kilometres through a foreign country? I am going to do something similiar.Somehow i feel like it is an escape for me . Did you feel lonesome or even bad during this trip? Thanks. Please Thumbs up that he can see my questions.Thank you guys.

[wededlol]

[Vestu]

[TiredOldGamerULX]

First world problems: spends a shitload of money walking thousands of miles. Forgets.

[bigfatspringroll]

@TiredOldGamerULX I thought the only thing we do in the first world is play until we're tired old gamers? ;)

[TheFredday]

@bigfatspringroll ich hab echt respekt davor, Nicht schlecht! ;) ich habs letztens bei rudetube gesehn wo du ja auch ein "interview" geführt hast;) welchen grund und welche motivation hattest du dafür? oder hattest du dir gesagt du wolltest etwas großes schaffen und es auf video dokumentiere? ;)

[murphyd19]

Was it really you? No, around 2000km it was Bob Ross.

[miyor123]

[bigfatspringroll]

@miyor123 nah, i would have noticed.

[vazzaroth]

[AOH94]

Dude you forgot your camera

[PaonSol]

Big Brother Wu's health spa eh...

[braindeadbonobo]

now post the footage of you running back to pick up your camera

[planetrob555]

You have a quotation mark at the end of the link to your website, which causes people who don't know how to resolve that to get to a Server Not Found error.

[bigfatspringroll]

@planetrob555 thank you so much for pointing that out, i hope i was able to resolve this.

[planetrob555]

@bigfatspringroll Yes, fine now!

[copperkipper1]

Should have done a picture of your legs, before & after. no homo

[rukus543]

You're like Ash Ketchum with the ability to grown your hair and age...

[jerrmiahb]

He's in an airplane quite a lot for someone who's walking so much.

[bigfatspringroll]

@jerrmiahb yeah.

[TheReimerAlan]

@jerrmiahb You can walk a lot while still using a plane for certain destinations.

[1bul0let1]

0:50 boobs :3

[ahoop14]

@1bul0let1 @bigfatspringroll To: bigfat, why u put boobs on youtube? :) I figure to avoid deletion of this video, u put something that cant be taken off that is covering her boobs.  To: bul0let, wow good eyes for pointing that out, I was only looking at the text at thebottom to see where he was.

[bigfatspringroll]

@ahoop14 i like boobs.

[nicko198718]

Why so serious

[TheGrimBassist]

@nicko198718 1:17 ;)

[SlicedAnanas]

Awesome!

[MissPirafoul]

Genius video. This song is awesome! What´s the name of this song? :)

[nealkinevil]

the transformation of human to goat. haha great vid really funny

[GamerJelly]

How to transform from a clean-cut gentleman, into a homeless traveling nomad is just 4646km!

[GamerJelly]

@GamerJelly THATS RIGHT!! IT REALLY IS THAT EASY!

[FRESHxIST]

rob machado? is that you?!

[schweinsteiger7694]

did you use 50mm camera lens in this video? or which one did you use?

[bigfatspringroll]

@schweinsteiger7694 16-35mm

[schweinsteiger7694]

@bigfatspringroll

thank you Christoph!!

[ahoop14]

@bigfatspringroll dude did you know xie is shoe in chinese? so your teacher's name was Teacher Shoe? lol

[bigfatspringroll]

@ahoop14 Oh, my young Padawan, Chinese is a language of many wonders! Actually, there are many Xie's: 鞋，写，谢，些，邪，蝎子 are just a select few among them. My teacher's name is not Xie as in 鞋 (shoe) but Xie as in 谢 (to thank). So actually, his name would be "Teacher Thanks". But there is another problem with this: to the Chinese, it doesn't matter what their family names actually mean. It's similar in the English speaking world, where a Mr. Smith is not looked upon as someone who works in a forge. :)

[ahoop14]

@bigfatspringroll sorry about that, but i just put his name in the google translate tab and it said shoe. sorry for the, you know. i didnt know there was more than one translation of Xie.

[bigfatspringroll]

@ahoop14 no worries at all. :)

[clijap14]

Como se llama la cancion que suena al comienzo?

[bigfatspringroll]

@clijap14 Zhu Fengbo - "Olive" / The Kingpins - "L'Aventurier"

[Jow45metal]

Those kinds of videos are so cool! I plan on doing one myself! Just need more time for the moustache to mature hehe!

[CakeAndNipples]

im gonna try this in north korea!

[bigfatspringroll]

@CakeAndNipples If you do it now, you're going to have to do a lot of crying over the Dear Leader. Might need to take some onions with you.

[TheUnknownRoad]

How many show pairs you changed bro? haha

[bigfatspringroll]

@TheUnknownRoad shoes? 3.

[TheMrDupuy]

You're awesome man.

[jacobb181]

0:50 nice background

[jessika1898]

1:17

[lolafrancisco]

amaaaaaaazing!!!! epic epic epic epic!!!!

[PsychoD3lix]

I like it when it says "1 year on foot - through China" and then... you see 1:29 - an airplane shot ... cool story bro

[bigfatspringroll]

@PsychoD3lix thanks for your comment. please read the description though.

[hutch1979music]

I'd have walked 302km for that chick in the picture too.

[wingwaabuddha]

@xkevorkianx an arrow to the knee, would not be enough to stop him

[wesleykevinanthony]

[wesleykevinanthony]

How much money did you need in order to perform such a trip? Amazing!

[HDLZD]

0:49 naked woman...

[CshadowZZZ]

[abuzarov]

What is the music in this video? The one that starts at 0:48? What's the name of the band.

As for the guy - he is cool. Always envied such brave people.

[ScrobaticAex]

I'm so getting a tattoo of you .. However when you got all beardy you sort of looked like Christian Bale ..

[bigfatspringroll]

@ScrobaticAex haha, a tattoo??

[PaparoniFilms]

@bigfatspringroll That's the sign of success. When someone permanently imprints an effigy of you onto them

[basicsensei]

@ScrobaticAex I was thinking the same thing, he did look like Christian Bale :)

[Crux317]

[bigfatspringroll]

@Crux317 who's your friend?

[MamSirz]
