I don’t think it’s allergies, man. I think one of the cows you’ve spoken to may have exposed you to mad cow disease. Remember to maintain six feet when YOing the cows.
Some athletes work for money, some for charity. Heart is in the right place, even if it for your own mental health.
How many miles you think the hitchhiker freeloaded?
Andrew Wyeth, eat your heart out. Chad's World. 6:56.
You plan on going through Rockingham NC? if you do lemme know and I'll cook whatever meal you wanna eat a good home cooked one that way you can get the energy to carry on with this dope trip.
Can’t believe he didn’t “YO!” the moth/butterfly once it was out😂
Omg that would have been comedy genious.
😂
"I guess this bug just lives in my ear now" is my favorite quote of this whole journey
lmaoooooo
he should sell merch with that lol
quite possibly the most stoic sentence ever spoken
The fact you have a living bug in your ear and you still stay so cool to everybody you meet is awesome
The guys skateboarding across America. I don't see a bug in his ear really being something that bothers him all that much hahah.
@@mckindo64 i think it would bother anyone
The lady working at the front desk is my mom believe it or not her name is summer
@@MerchantStuff I was his ride to urgent care.
This is so f-!n awesome! and silly, at the same time! Everyone is so sk8r! so Punk! - The Butterfly!, The Doctor! The Nurses! and Staff! this 'dude!' right there! for knowing to spread joy by recording how no crisis is too small for actual heroes.
“What if you get attacked by a dog or a bear or bitten by a snake or scorpion?”
Meanwhile the Butterfly is quietly plotting it’s attack…
This it what I was thinking too, he'd just said that in a previous video and Jinxed himself. Butterfly/moth was the least painful out of that lot though. Doing really well if you're reading Chad! Support from the UK
Lol. A friend of mine had a moth fly in his ear when we were younger. I thought it was hilarious. He did not. The ER had to smother it with wax and get it out. His dad attempted with some pliers first. Haha. Good times.
😂
The 🦋 actually saved his life..
The butterfly: hold my beer
Great to meet you Chad!! Hope I was able to provide a little respite from the Tennessee heat. When you get wrapped up come on back to Tennessee, would love to take you out on some whitewater or out relic huntin.Would have never guessed the bug situation😮 Tennessee is a wild place! Keep rolling, you’re almost there!!
Love your channel by the way. Post more!
I’ll check out your channel. My parents were relic hunters.
@@thorgoodlife1865 thanks Thor!
I was waiting for you to give him a pair of your signature green sunglasses.
@@mrbriancnc 😂 I figured a piece of history would age better.
Hey uncle chad I like your videos keep up the good work
Family supports family 💪🏻
Hi Joey and Chad. Miss you guys!
This is awesome
hahaha this is wholesome
@@quota4eva lol so adorable. Love this.
it's touching how all these people are looking for you and waiting to see you. what an amazing adventure, man!
You just received the best old man story to tell when you’re 80
Idk why but I like the guy in the truck that stopped the most out of all the people. So chill, when Chad says "got a few more days of climbing" to the big guy, dude from the truck says "it is what it is"... Just so chill haha then the big dude "I'm too fat and out of shape, just had a stroke" so honest! Love that humorous humility!
😂 Thanks, was just glad to be able to hook a brother up with some ice and water, he inspired me for years.
😂😂😂
@@BirdDogg your a real one
The people he meets is the best
He said I guess this bug just lives in my ear now 😂😂😂
This is the real America, All the people he meets along the way gives me hope for the country...
True, there are some really amazing people in America 🇺🇸
What a bizarre thing to happen, a day to remember for sure.
Thank you to the lovely ladies in urgent care for getting our guy back on the road!
♥We appreciate you!
cootsies
And that's how he met your mother.
Was awesome to skate and meet you man. Good luck on the rest of your journey and wish me luck at the world series of poker!
Great profile picture 😂👍🔥
@@david_4246 😂😂😂😂😂👍👍
Coyotes? No problem. Snakes? They keep away. Butterflys? Now that's a real danger! 😀 I'm so glad that you're okay. Take care and keep pushing!
Moth totem symbology: endings, new beginnings, rebirth. You’re almost at the end of your trip and when it’s all said and done you could consider that to be the beginning…
Dude considering how many miles you've logged, it's awesome that you made it this far without having to go to the urgent care sooner. You got this!
Right i would have definitely ate shit on a couple of hills at least lol
David had the right energy. See the guy, stop your car a couple miles up, skate back to him and talk to Chad WHILE YOU SKATE! Don't get in his way and don't slow him down but by all means hype him up!
How symbolic! There needs to be a graphic with a butterfly and a ear for Chad!
earconic 😂😂
had this happen a little over a decade ago, it was by far the most traumatic thing i've ever had to go to the hospital/DR for. & i've broken bones almost 10 times, gotten 3 concussions, cut so bad I needed stitches 4 times, etc...
a bug in my ear is the only one that changed the way I go about my life to this day - just to avoid that ever happening again lmao
So how do you go about your day now to avoid it happening again??
"you got a lot of miles on that skateboard buddy" I kinda love that guy
😂
I'm so glad he went to urgent care for this and not like something worse like getting hit by a car or falling and breaking something I was so worried 😢
🎉 Good Friday
It's only a matter of time considering the circumstances.
Same!!! I saw the video headline and got worried. Glad it was such an odd ball thing 🦋🦋🦋.
Rock on Chad!
For real, of all the ways he could’ve ended up needing a doctor, butterfly in the ear wouldn’t have been in my first million guesses lol
From the last few days with his ankles bruising I assumed that’s what he was going for, but as soon as the bug flew in I knew he was in it for the long haul lmaoo
The civil war guy was cool. Like a healthier Duane Peters, haha :)
😂😂😂
dude i love the older skaters that hangout with you. frickin rad!!
I was so anxious the whole time he had that in there I would’ve been freaking out big time. Insane how he was just chill and kept skating with people
Those nurse's were brilliant. What lovely people.
Chad Caruso shows us how to be equanimous, kind, and happy through thick and thin. Thanks, man!
That's funny how the day before you talked about dangerous things you can come across and the next day a butterfly gets stuck in your ear 😂
That was so much bigger than I expected it to be.
inb4 that's what she said joke
LOL 😆😂
that's insane. first trip to urgent care and it's for a butterfly/ moth. Guess he wanted to join in on the trip as well. Chad Caruso picking up popularity with all sorts of animals
that urgent care might have the nicest healthcare employees in america
Damn that bug was bigger than I was expecting haha you are so rad for taking the time and talking/connecting with everyone. Keep killing it and keep pushing. Good luck man
Mothman.. 😃 Your almost there Chad, Keep on truckin'.
The butterfly got up close & personal with its “yo” lol
This is the third time I’m shouting out somebody shout out to the guy who pulled over and gave him water and videotaping him. Chad keeps running in the legends. ❤
😂Thanks Savage!
People who skateboard are just cooler. I thought that 49 days ago, now I know it.
Had this happen one time. Legitimately the weirdest feeling ever. I had a moth stuck in my ear. EveryTime he would flap his wings. My vision would go all funny
I NEVER skip the ads on your videos. You deserve all the money you get from these videos.
The social encounters are like wind in my sail. This is so sick. Respect!!
This happened to me once. Was sleeping ( room was next to outdoor greenhouse) and woke up to the sound of crawling in my ear. Freaked me out and would not come out. I grabbed some water and poured it in to my ear and it died. The craziest was that I could hear the legs moving faster until I heard nothing. I fell back asleep and forgot about it. In the morning when brushing my teeth I heard a GLUG and out of my ear came the dead bug with water. Was strange experience indeed.
This man truly became one with nature for a bit
If your thinking about your addiction, don’t. There is no profit from personal addiction. Keep moving my friend. Going backwards isn’t an option. It’s amazing to see the number of addicts just in your videos. Bless you Chad. “KISS ASS”
20 minutes videos are perfect
I’ve been watching your trip for 35 days now. I laughed so hard about the butterfly ordeal. Glad you’re ok. Thank you for sharing this journey with us and spreading the word about sobriety ❤
I has a small moth fly into my ear while I was trimming a bush. When the vibrate the wings on your ear drum it is a one of a kind experience. Flushed it out with a garden house.
I was paddling the coast of Baja and a beetle made its way into my ear. It drove me nuts and was stressful but oddly funny at the same time. I had a bulb syringe in my first aid and flushed it out finally. I couldn’t believe it.
Crazy day for you. Loving following your adventure and appreciate you sharing it. 🤘🤘💪💪✌🏻
Lol, “The problem is you’re going up hill. You realize that right?”
“Oh I know…” 🤣
I've been there dude-
panic quickly ensues when a foreign object enters the ear canal...
What a story for the day
My man had a fucking butterfly in his ear and still managed to get all his miles in 🤣. Your a trooper man!!! 🤘
Woke up one morning with a tick in my ear, I know your pain so well. One of the worst experiences of my life. So unsettling to have tiny legs moving that far inside your head! Glad you got it out.
I still can’t believe it was a butterfly in your ear. Talk about a memory forever 😂
I can’t believe that thing was in your ear for that long!! That’s insane. Thank GOD for that urgent care spot. You’re tough dude!!
That Red Bull really does give you wings
If even 10% of the world was as chill as Chad, we'd be in a lot better shape. You are an inspiration on many levels, sir.
hahaha everyone was so chill in this video. the urgent care girls were awesome
Most watched skateboarding series with no flip tricks! Well there was a few tricks though. Not that Chad can't do every trick there is.
I feel like that is a good omen. Imagine all the doors in the universe that had to open for you and that butterfly to meet in a Tennessee urgent care.
Didn't work out too well for the butterfly ha ha
Bro a buddy of mine was on mushrooms at a party one time and fell in some grass and a moth went in his his ear and noone would believe him. He was freaking out and ended up calling his mom who also didn't believe him. Then she took him to the hospital and the doctor didn't believe him. They all just thought he was tripping. Then finally when the doctor looked in his ear it was totally a moth. Thought that was a one in a million experience. You fkn rip Chad! You're mindfulness and determination is the most inspiring thing on the internet. Thanks for the positive energy brother!
Fuck that
Crazy how Chad automatically follows negatives with positives. His ears banged up but says at least his shin is good. Super positive and healthy outlook.
You handled that like a champ. The finish line is coming!
It sucks you had to go through that, but it made a great video haha
That is CRAZY! When I saw the video name I was like, "aw man, he made it 48 days before he took a nasty spill"--nope!
That dude makes a great point about that onewheel😊
I’m so bummed I didn’t catch coming through Bristol. It’s crazy you have come all the way from California on a skateboard. So epic!!
I love how many people have been coming out to support while you’ve skated through Tennessee! Also craziest thing to ever fly into your ear, maybe it’s a good luck thing?
You skated through Nashville while Taylor was there
That's unreal. It looked so big, like it probably couldn't have turned around if it wanted to. When they're shooting the water in your ear, it kinda hurts too from the pressure. That's a wild day!
In John Steinbeck's book "Travels with Charley: In Search of America", he talks about in preparation of his trip and in meeting people along the way, there's always a wishfullness he observes in people when he tells them he's going on the road- a look of wanting to also leave and embark on the same adventure. You seem to be experiencing that as well, where it stirs a feeling of adventure in people who used to skate or have some kind of connection to skateboarding and adventure. It's really cool to see people meeting you along the way and joining you for a little while to get that same feeling of freedom.
Dude brutal day. Nurse's are the best. The sh*t you just can't prepare for. Damn. Hopefully smooth skating from here on out. 🤙
Man oh man…Chad! Dude you rock man to skate with a bug in your ear?? Unreal you are super human.
that is seriously so gnarly I would be so uncomfortable with a LIVE BUG in my ear bro wow, mad respect for keeping skating, I was expecting you to ask the dude for a ride to urgent care, but you finished the whole day!
Yeah I thought for sure he was getting a ride to urgent care, but dude is a beast.
Yea exactly! What a trooper!
I just need to be half as optimistic as this guy and i am set for life ! Keep rolling bro !
I look forward to these every single day, very inspirational
Chad just seems like the nicest dude in the world. I look forward to these videos so Im going to need you to go from VA back to Cali for my own selfish benefit...
"You're not gonna believe this. It's a tiny pair of sunglasses."
Chad "The Legend" Caruso 🙏
“To some cultures, the moth is seen as a messenger from the spiritual realm, bringing with it vital messages from the universe. If a moth should land on your person or property, it can be interpreted as a sign of spiritual awakening.“
He must have really wanted to get through lol.
Getting closer to Us. My son and I would love to skate with you Marion VA
Stay safe out there.
I'm glad you got it out and it wasn't serious. My brother had a bug in his ear about 8 years ago but it seriously damaged his hearing in that ear after he finally got it out
How many miles did the butterfly do?
Chad is pushing through everything! Straight warrior! The butterfly man 🦋💪🤙
NO WAY ITS A BUTTERFLY 🦋 AMAZING
mad love chad. man had a god damn butterfly in his ear!
Such a cool journey! awesome that you meet so many people along the way
Safe travels 🤙🛹💯
how the fuck?!?!? you're a legend dude. a butterfly in your head. poetic.
I'm so jealous of your adventure man it look so fun wishing you the best
Your gonna be in amazing shape
What a trooper man! Keep riding 'em Chad.
So many cool people!
Endless Courage!
Loving this amazing journey, Chad! You are an absolute inspiration, brother.
Such a bizarre thing yet so interesting. This journey is so entertaining to tune into!
Chad! It's been rad seeing your adventure. Keep going, you're almost there.
Great job! Good luck with the rest! Welcome to VA!
The realities of moving forward outdoors; as a cyclist, I’ve been stung by bees on both shoulders plus one stung me though a vent on my helmet (not to mention swallowing half the insects found in the animal kingdom!). Pretty crazy that a butterfly flew into your ear, skated with it there, and found an urgent care to get it all out!
0:11 that's one thing people usually don't mention much about switching up climates rapidly. It tends to really mess with allergies & sinuses in general. You went from super dry air to super humid and pollen filled air in a span of a couple weeks! Ragweed pollen is especially bad on the east coast around this time of year
Don't worry about being two days late, you're killing it!
You are strong as heck.
