🌎 : OUTER BANKS, NORTH CAROLINA (6.9/10)
Quick 200 mile detour to the outerbanks of North Carolina because some lad told me we can find Americans with funny english accents. We rolled around Roanoke island all day looking for Hoi Toiders but also learning the cool history of the lost colony and visited kill devil hills. Was this 400 mile round trip worth it?

Dan. Sooner or later i'm gonna be a corpse in the ground, worms eating my body and my atoms will disassemble and move off to finds new uses elsewhere in the universe, probably to create a turd. Why take things so serious, why work a job you hate, why listen to people telling you to do things you don't want to do, life's too short for any of that foo foo. I create exploration videos in the hopes of inspiring others to travel and see planet earth. Waterfalls, Aurora Borealis, Curry, Pyramids, Lions, Live Music & Laughter. How Bout That?

    At the start I had no clue nor cared what a "Hoi Toider" was. By the end, I was bummed you guys chose Kitty Hawk and didn't continue on your epic quest! It's wild how hospitable and friendly folks are. The historian who chuckled at your Wikipedia joke, the Southern guys and their pick up truck, the dudes who took time out of their work day processing tuna to share all their perspective and history - Just awesome! Thanks for another great show. The Fun Facts! at the bottom are a great touch. It's neat how you introduce little known history and local tales into your travel videos. That could be a nice little niche you carve out.

    This was a good video. I'm so glad you go and talk to everyone. People don't do that too much anymore.
  • He (the one gentleman by the truck) just isn’t from the sticks like the other guys. As someone from Alabama, his accent doesn’t sound very different to me. We get a mix of accents in Alabama. Too bad you missed New Orleans! Hoi Toiders - new to me. I enjoyed the video. I’m glad everyone is nice to you (except for the rude lady you said Happy MLK Day to. 😂).
  • I'm from Roanoke Island, it is said that "hoi toiders" and remnants of Brougue can be found on Ocracoke. There is a great video on YouTube (from which you showed a clip at the end) with interviews and some insight into the isolation that caused the unique dialect. It's my understanding most of the people that speak Brougue are older folks. Also worth mentioning the names the guys tell you, Tillett and Daniels, are huge multigenerational families with deep roots in the area, operating fishing and restaurants. Hope you enjoyed your visit here!

    I have seen a lot of travel vloggers but you are truly my new favourite. Great videos and I love that you really go exploring the country’s your in! Keep the good work up, you’ll be famous in an eye blink.

    You are a gem. I'm a Korean who meet your channel spontaniously. I've been watching your video a few years. I'm also traveling Australia and learning languages, meeting people. I'm always having a great energy from your videos. Thank you. Just wanted to say it.
  • Dan, great stuff, you guys meeting all the "good ole boys" in North Carolina, and shotguns in the background, hahahahahahaha. Those guys are a hoot. I'm from New York (North Shore Long Island) been down there many times, lots of crazy accents down there and a slower lifestyle than up North. If you had gone to Louisiana they would be speaking French Creole, Louisiana Cajun. Sometimes we can't even understand them, it's like you guys talking to the Scottish people. Virtually impossible to understand. By the way, there is no such thing as "real pizza" or any type of Italian food in the U.S. except for New York, New Jersey or Chicago, So wait until you get up here man and really enjoy pizza.
  • Fun accent side quest you should do more of these things where you hunt for something 🎉

    It's funny as an American I went to a British School in America but all my teachers were from GB, so I'm more accustom to British English accents and boy do they vary :). It is spectacular. What I'm getting at is I'm American and I found it harder to understand the Gentlemen by the pick up truck, they truly sounded foreign to me!

    ay how do you edit your videos? I record in 4k resolution in my gopro hero 11 but when i try to edit it on my windows 10 in some free editor apps its lagging and impossible to edit
  • @EthosLegos
    This almost reminds me of a YouTuber explaining the different dialects from USA regions. If you want to hear that type of dialect some parts of the south black communities speak in that form/dialect. The dialect is well and alive due to the black communities remaining isolated from education and expansion. The southern younger white communities assimilation to speaking a more “proper form” of English, that is one reason it is “dying out” or not heard as much. As always great video!
