I'M ON PAGE 3 (post mission thank you)

The Guardian did an article on me on Sunday! not just any article but a full on page 3er! There are some great action shots from Scotland on there, but sadly no topless pics.

Despite the heart-breaking end to the Scotland Mission, It's well and truly a great time to be GeoWizard and I just want to thank you all. Thank you to all the new Patreons who have recently signed up, as well as all the old timers. I can't thank you enough for supporting me. At the rate I'm going there's a small chance that YouTube might stop paying me properly, so anything I get from Patreon is much appreciated, particularly with the costly missions I have planned for the foreseeable! I'm hoping I can carry out my plans to conquer Patagonia and Qatar...

BONUS FOOTAGE: I know I keep banging on about it, but it has been quite a hectic period for me recently and so I'm still a bit behind. I finished editing Scotland last Friday and I've been signing and packaging all the posters with super Verity pretty much since. To add to that we're moving house tomorrow. For those of you who are eager to see the bonus footage from the mission, starting with all the footage from the preparation and scouting,  I'm hoping it will be ready by tomorrow with subtitles. At the very least without subtitles.  
Thanks for your patience in this busy time and thanks again for signing up. You are like one huge, family and I want to hug you all.

Good luck to the Scots tomorrow! (except I don't mean it ;)

P.S. I forgot to mention how pissed off I was that the writer mentioned the police incident in Scotland before the actual release. That was the one thing I asked her not to do. I'll know next time not to divulge any information to any journalists! Sounds obvious now...

I didn’t know Greg was your stepbro

Patagonia! That's gonna be a tough one...

Jimbottomsen

Surely crossing New Zealand is far easier in the suburbs of Auckland? Tasman Sea to Pacific Ocean is 22 minutes via footpath … I might use my travel bubble from Australia to try that …… tbh it's gonna be harder in a city with houses and front yards, eek

Christian Kent

So when you move house, do you do it in a straight line, or …

Christian Kent

Yeah post up now explaining it!

I believe I saw a comment after he posted that someone saw a non-blurred phone number on a car screen, I assume he pulled the video and will reupload after cutting or censoring that part.

Patagonia? That is daring! Really looking forward to it though, good luck.

Where is the link to the scotland bonus video

Yup looks like the post was removed! I'm sure Tom is on top of things!

EJL

Does anyone know if the Scotland Bonus video #1 post was removed? I got the email earlier today and was waiting patiently to watch it after work, but now when I click on the Patreon link I get a 404 error. Could someone kindly please share the URL to the YouTube video.

SeaJay

Just realised, might be different in Scotland, they are special :)

Trespass on foot over land is mostly civil and not criminal, but I'm sure they can fine him for Rail track and motorway hopping :/

Honest question Tom but aren’t you a little bit afraid that by that publicity people will call the police and tell them that you crossed their land since they literally have video evidence of that?

Kaim Argonar

It is great you are getting recognition but I'd be concerned that the rozzers will see your vids in more detail and charge you with some offence for walking on the Motorway. Something like a £2500 fine each would probably be something you and Welsh Greg could do without?

This sounds like a proper "get in!" moment!

Kyle Voss

I believe it's easier to get videos demonetized because of increased scrutiny

Minjae Kim

What does it mean that "at the rate you're going youtube will stop paying you"? Aren't you getting more and more views/subscribers? Do they have some weird model where they pay you less and less if you pass some popularity threshold or something?

Congrats!!! Very well deserved!! Can’t wait for more but we will all totally understand if you need to take your time and do what you need to do! ☺️

jackalyn

This is awesome! You deserve this. And journalists will be journalists lol, how annoying. Anyway, I'm happy to support you Tom, you make the best content on the whole of YouTube. Btw, QATAR??? You mean straight line mission? Be careful. My father works in Qatar, I've visited a few times. The laws in that country are very very strict, especially for foreigners!

There is not one bit of this entire adventure that you don't deserve. You're going from strength to strength and you're never losing that humble charm that you started with. I love it. Having you succeed at all these cool things is like having a buddy that you're just so proud of. Keep it up mate, can't wait to see where you go next.

Damn, breaking embargo is a big no-no! :P But hey, all ink is good ink ;)

Oscar Nissin

I'm gonna start calling you the FishmongerWizard from here on forward!

Jan Are Melgård

Fully deserved! To the 1.000.000🚀🚀🚀

I hope the coppers from Scotland see this

Amit Zohar

I read that article and missed the bit about the police! It didn't ruin it for me. Now you know what want they want to write about the police, just exaggerate the story about being on the run from the police the whole time. Catch me if you can... How did you get the article? Did they contact you?

Pete H

mate im genuinely terrified for you going to qatar thats nuts but if anyone can do it its you

NICE!!!! You really need this recognition!!

0-Dimensional

Nice matee, hope the next projects went well!

Trelleon Ginting

Nice one mate, that's awesome. Make sure you take some time to enjoy the Euros! We can take back revenge on Scotland tomorrow for ruining the straight line missing! Haha

Michael Webb

Good luck moving houses tomorrow Tom! Remember to use them legs and not that back, last time I moved a desk kept me in bed the whole next day.

Jake

Congrats, and take care of yourself - creator burnout is real! You’ll always have people supporting your work, we’re not going anywhere. Take a break when you need one.

Nathaniel Davis

Also, you NEED to actually conquer Wales, third time lucky? You just cannot be defeated by it 😆

Laura Newton

Old media is dead anyways. It is just withering away. What you are doing is the future. "Journalist" will be the tobbacco salesmen of our day.

MusFuzZ

Same!

Laura Newton

I signed up a few days ago to this, just for your content and I'm so happy I did!! Good luck with your house move!!!

Laura Newton

Have always thought you and Welsh Greg would make great page 3 girls

congrats tom!

Weston Titus

Dude, you're the only youtuber I support (as of today), that says a lot!

Ggs on the full page story also..

Haha #Page3Model in the making..

I love your videos and theyve inspired me to go out and see nature more!

Congrats on the paper coverage mate! The three Scotland videos where top notch Geowizard entertainment, can‘t wait to see your next mission. Also cheers to Greg, you should take him always from now on. 👏

let’s gooooo!! amazing :)

I love your content Tom. I was sad to see the Scotland attempt only last three episodes, but I really hope you have more planned because it’s never enough. I need more!

Get in !! Congrats

John Kossmann

Can't wait for more straight line missions. What's the thinking behind Qatar ? Isn't that quite a dangerous place with poor human rights record?

Josette Reynolds

Well done Tom and Greg!

I forgot to mention how pissed off I was that the writer mentioned the police incident in Scotland before the actual release. That was the one thing I asked her not to do. I'll know next time not to divulge any information to any journalists! Sounds obvious now...

tom davies

Coast to coast through norway?

Ayle

Get in man!! So proud and happy for you!! Wish we got that here in the US; I'd frame it!;)

Ethan Page
