We're so back...
What's up guys, welcome back to another video. My name is Ross and if you're new here, I'll start out by saying that my life is absolutely insane.
I've spent the past year of my life trying to experience every crazy thing I possibly can and I did.
I mean, every single weekend I was texting my buddies like, hey dude, let's do this, let's do that, let's go to the Florida Everglades and let's go camp out there for a week.
Let's go to SwampFest. SwampFest was crazy. We were in this crazy environment with fire and celebrities and pro skaters and I was in the mix with all these guys that were just so full of life.
It literally became the norm that every single weekend we would be like, dude, let's pitch tents and let's find somewhere to go and let's just make an adventure out of it.
And it was so freaking fun. So much fun making videos every single week and just going out and testing our limits and seeing what we could do.
And we took it to such an extreme that we literally drove across the entire country.
We packed up two cars, we brought six dudes with us and we just went and we camped out all across the country.
And we did that for pretty much the entire summer. Like we were gone just camping out in the Tetons, we went to Colorado, we went to Utah.
And we got to experience things that not a lot of people our age get to actually experience just because we challenge each other to do it.
To make things even crazier, after that, a week later, I flew to Costa Rica with a bunch of people.
My buddy Reagan runs these retreats and he's a professional cliff jumper.
And I went out there and I jumped waterfalls with him for an entire week and then I actually got good enough myself at it to where I could compete professionally.
So I did. I entered my name in a pro death diving event in Chattanooga, pulled up.
I didn't even film it because it was the first time I was with just myself and not my buddies.
So I went there, you know, all amped, you know, threw down.
I experienced all these things in such a short amount of time that my eyes kind of opened to how big the world is and how it's really possible to go out and see all of it and experience all of it.
And I get to be so proud of how far I came.
But interestingly enough, at the end of the day, I'm not satisfied with any of it.
Which is kind of crazy because if you were to ask me a year ago how I would feel if I got to death dive a 20 meter waterfall and got to drive across the country and got to compete professionally and all this,
I would have been like, holy ----, that is the craziest thing ever.
I would have been so stoked.
And I am stoked.
But at the same time, it's interesting because your mindset doesn't actually change when you do all these things.
You just want to go on to the next adventure.
And now I'm already thinking about the next time I go out to Costa Rica.
And we're already planning another road trip.
That's just where my life is.
I've kind of just adopted this lifestyle that I go and experience something new as often as I possibly can.
And that's sick.
Unless you're a college student.
Then it's not so sick.
So I went and dropped out of college.
Yeah.
That's pretty much what this video is about.
My life is changing.
And now I am no longer a college student.
And I have to fend on my own.
And I have to go out into the real big scary world.
It's been pretty smooth so far with that.
So actually this is kind of sick.
Because I'm pretty sure more videos should be coming out.
Because I'm going to have more time to actually do my own thing.
Which is great.
So more content on the way.
Alright, let's go ride dirt bikes.
Dude, I sat down and flipped into fourth on that last one.
No, you've got to stand up and sit down.
Like before you pass us.
And pass us while you're sitting down.
Alright man, I got you.
Looks like I'm a little late to the party.
What's up man?
I'm going to follow you in this little hoop you guys.
Lucas, what happened to the other rig?
It's in the parking lot right now.
It hasn't been moved.
It doesn't move?
It moves, but it's leaking a lot of oil.
I kind of said **** it.
The one thing about being home full time
is I now have a lot more free time
on my own with nobody else out here but myself.
So I've got to kind of find my own fun.
Which is interesting, and I don't mind it.
But that's all going to change
because I actually convinced my buddy Jacob to drop out with me.
And he's going to be coming back home
and living with me from here on out.
So I'm actually going to go up this weekend back to Clemson
to go grab him
and bring him back.
But in the meantime, I've got a bunch of fun stuff planned.
We've got a lot of friends up there.
We're bringing a couple dirt bikes, so we'll see how it goes.
Try again.
Alright, we're recording, right?
We're about to go rip a dirt bike around back.
There's a big party back there.
What's up boys?
We just made our way into the pontoon.
We found a pontoon boat that has a cover on it.
So this is the nice special edition 2025 pontoon boat.
Squeeze your way through.
We're squeezing our way through right now.
Oh my god, we are not supposed to be in here right now.
But this is so lit.
And as you can see, this pontoon boat
is going to be going at a very nice speed.
Very luxurious Louis Vuitton couches.
I swear me and Ross are going to be sleeping tomorrow night.
Good morning.
Come on dude, we've got a big day ahead.
What the ****?
Why is the Goodyear blimp flying over the house?
Good morning guys.
We're going to be taking the boat all the way across yonder.
We've got James up.
What's up dude?
How was your night last night?
It was pretty gnarly.
Roll the clips.
Yeah, no, it was a pretty good night.
We're about to go pick up a leprechaun.
Oh leprechaun!
I smell it from here bro.
Dude, we can smell you from here.
This is like the only shirt you wear.
Look at my Luke.
Got the five hour energy, got the push.
This is my Luke.
Bro, this shirt that Jackson has, literally.
Y'all know the character from Charlie Brown
where he's just like, complete stink.
It's just roaming around him constantly.
Pop him a photo of pig pen.
When he walks out, pop him a photo of pig pen.
I guess he ended up on the boat.
Alright guys, we've made it to our destination,
Dafusky Island.
About to show y'all a little bit of the day in the life,
the ins and outs of me and my friends
when they're back home.
Made it to Dafusky Island.
We're at the lunch table in Dafusky Island.
Kaden got a scrap iron.
I already got a little scrappy.
I gotta make it for an hour or two at least.
Brady got upset because I told
the people at the front she wasn't 21.
We'll show a quick view.
Out here at the scrap iron.
Pretty smelly boat ride with the leprechaun
on there the whole time.
One scrap iron on Mahoney please.
I'm about to go dance with his grandma.
No camera.
That's my bad.
This is what the world needed.
Tell the vlog a little bit about you and golf carts.
I don't want to get into too much information
but I'm known for stealing golf carts.
So y'all are here to rent golf carts?
So first thing I'm gonna need to know
are y'all racist?
Alright, this kid can get a golf cart.
Get this kid a golf cart right now.
We can't go back to old ways.
James, we can't go back.
I don't know if this is a good idea or not.
Let's go.
We're in the dust.
We're driving a golf cart right now
is not a good idea.
We're about to get passed.
We're about to get hit.
We ain't getting passed.
What's up, what's up?
The name's Sloth.
**** you.
**** you!
Finn, you are a dumbass.
Bro, I ******* didn't know
it was gonna end up like this, bro.
I didn't ******* plan on that.
Hey, let's go.
Sorry for our leprechaun friend, he smells like ----.
They got the hottest mom in the low country.
James, that's his ******* wife.
What's up, Unc?
How's it going?
Currently, we're at the Fusky Dock.
We're trying to leave because the sun is setting
and we have like a
one and a half hour boat ride
and these guys just decided they want to just hang out.
Hey, Nickus, can you explain what your name is to the camera?
It's Nickus.
Birth name is Nicholas.
Nick name is Nick.
Look at his shirt, bro.
What happened to my shirt?
Oh my god.
He's back.
Tell him what you're about to do.
We'll flip him real quick, bro.
If y'all haven't seen the last video,
I'm gonna go ahead and cue the clip.
Don't try to flip, just jump.
Bryce, this is a really shitty idea, dude.
Alright, so here's what happened, dude.
I landed on my side of my back next to my liver, dude.
------- liver shot.
He did that in pants, bro.
Bryce, you could've at least taken your pants off, bro.
I think that ---- looks tough, bro.
I guess, bro.
Oh my god, dude.
Stop vlogging, dude.
