Who are Kara and Nate?!
Watch our documentary here: • 100th COUNTRY DOCUMENTARY
Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married 2013 and were super “normal.” I was a teacher and Nate started a small printing business from the spare bedroom of our apartment. We discovered the world of “travel hacking” & became obsessed. So after 2 years of obsessively saving $35k and over 2 million miles and points, we sold our cars and apartment and left home January 10, 2016 for a “one year” trip around the world. Our goal was to see as many places as possible before we ran out of money and went home to “normal life.” We started this travel vlog to share our experiences with friends and family, but quickly fell in love with this lifestyle and did everything we could to keep going. 4 years later, we achieved our new goal of visiting 100 countries and all 7 continents. We had no plans to slow down, until 2020 forced us to ;) Which is when we bought a converted van to start exploring our own country for the first time. Van life was a major adjustment and so different than flying every week like we were used to, but we are incredibly thankful to be able to continue doing something we love every day. 😊🎥🌎

Scale of 1-10…how likely would you be to say yes to the ladder? 😬
Still cannot believe that was ME up there🙆🏻♀️ What a rush! Hope y’all enjoyed this fun episode 🤗

Absolutely would do it! Teeth might be chattering the whole time but wouldn't miss that epic experience!!
Infinite in minus...tho seems funn
Can we all just take a moment to recognize how absolutely incredible it is that they did this AND filmed the whole thing?! Beautiful shots and POVs. You two are insanely amazing! 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
Literally I’d be too focused on keeping myself calm and getting through it to look around much less film
@@musicallyintimidated3803 SAME. I got so nervous when Nate was holding the selfie stick out while on that ladder 😖
Great drone footage by Nate while Kara went first
Kara also did instagram stories while doing this! They're so brave!
@@em...... omg she’s crazy hahahaha I love them so much 😂
Love the way you support each other! Next time you do a Via Ferrata, always have your two carabiner's facing in opposite directions when you clip onto the wire. If you were to accidentally fall off, you could risk having both carabiner's open at the same time. Placing them in opposite directions protects you because it provides an extra layer of safety and stops the risk of them both opening. I work as a Via Ferrata guide in the Italian Dolomites. Thank you for sharing your adventures with us! : )
I was going to say this it’s the most important thing I’ve been taught for them
My point exactly. They don’t know what they r doing
It was just a regular hike down?
Oops didn’t mean to comment here
They did on the first low Via Ferrata. At 3:55 you can see Nate’s carabiner facing opposite directions and right before that if you watch how Kara clips hers, she does opposite directions as well.
My #1 fear is heights. This video had my hands and feet sweating!
But what is 2000ft? Metric system will get you over your fear of hights
@@user-ie6jr4bg1w High enough to kill you. That’s still around 600 m.
I'm not afraid of heights, I'm afraid of plummeting to serious injury or death. I'll stand in the roof of a 1000 story building. But probably not go near the edge unless it has a big guardrail of some sort.
SAME
@@joemckim1183 So you kinda are afraid of heights :D I'm the same way. As long as there is some sort of barrier or guard rail I'm fine. Cut that out of the equation and I'll be hugging the ground faaaar away from the edge.
"It's the best thing I've ever eaten"
I love how every meal Kara has, its always the best thing she's ever eaten lol 😆
It's the sign of a happy and content person, who is living a satisfying life.
I'm so used to you guys doing incredible things that it usually isn't shocking... But THIS. I was in awe the whole time. Absolutely insane. Your courage and determination is so inspiring.
same
Yikes. No way. Ever.
at what point does bravery become stupidity and testing fate, a la titanic submarine tho?
never ever would I do anything like this ever - fear of heights .
My tired and disabled body lives the wildest dreams through your videos. Whenever you climb the hardest mountains or swim the scariest sea, I feel I’ve done it with you. That’s how good your videos are. Thank you ❤x
@ Joanna Foley I'm right there with you! I feel I'm living vicariously through them and I'm enjoying every moment!!
Me too! My disabled body feels the same way! They 're fresh air! Even if this was sooooo scary just watching! 🤪😂
The same here too, just amazing to watch. Xx
Their videos really are a blessing to so many who for a variety of reasons would have no other way to experience these adventures. Their dedication to bringing us along for the ride and providing such an immersive experience is just amazing, and I hope they see your comment and know just how much we appreciate it.
@@juliahatter8734 I agree 100%. I appreciate them so much ❤️
You two were meant for each other. It doesn't matter what you are doing, what I enjoy watching is how much you take care of, encourage, and support one another.
My heart is pounding just watching you two climb this. Congratulations!!!!
My anxiety was RAGING during this entire episode. I don’t think I could do something like this (extremely terrified of heights), but thank you for letting us live vicariously through you on these adventures. I look forward to your vlogs every week. Thank you! ❤
My heart was in my throat the entire time they were on the ladder and going up past it. I am terrified of heights too and I could just feel my own heart beating a mile a minute, even knowing they made it through. I was even nervous when they were standing by the cross because it seemed so close to the edge. I love all their videos and seeing adventures through them.
Me too!!
ME TOO! there was even a few times i had to look away lol
The fear sweat would have my helmet geysering straight off my head.
SAME and im already very nervous for something this week, so this did not help...but I love it and them :))
There is no way in HAYELL I'd do that at this point in my life. But, Kara's ability to push through is crazy inspiring. Makes me feel like maybe I can face my biggest fears, too.
Kara is such a badass. She does things I would never have the opportunity to even try, and she rocks it. Nate is legend for his insane mountain biking. Together you guys are superhero's.
My hands and feet are SWEATING as I'm watching Kara climbing up the ladder. You guys are amazing and have such a talent for making me feel like I'm right there with you. So so proud of you!
MINE are STILL DRIPPING
✨🤍💦🤍✨
Sameee
Amazing efforts 🏞️🏔️⛰️ breathtaking views . Humble Request to add back down clips also. Stay blessed 💞
The fact that you filmed and did this simultaneously is absolutely incredible!
I can’t believe how fearless they are! 😅
My thoughts exactly!!!!!! ~Cara 😆
Wow Nate is so motivational and encouraging to Kara, that’s amazing! Just cheering her on and helping her and being the most supporting husband! Love them! So proud of them❤
I LOVE how proud he is of her for everything. ❤❤❤
Literally had my hands and feet sweating throughout the whole entire video. I was really screaming out loud, saying "Stop filming! Please grab the string tight!" You guys are just so incredible to be able to finish this challenge, love both of u so much!
Nate's an absolute beast at everything he does, but Kara totally encompasses my mantra of "do it scared" and you're both SO inspiring. Maybe I'm not climbing a mountain but when I'm scared I think of all the people that do it scared, and that gives me a lot of strength to continue pushing myself in life ❤️ You guys are epic ⭐️
That is an amazing mantra and I appreciate this perspective so much!! Thank you for sharing!! Kara & Nate are epic, and you are too!! 💫
I love this so much! I was a competitive equestrian for years and I would always be so nervous and never felt “ready” to move up a level. But somewhere along the journey I saw a similar quote saying you’ll never feel ready, you just do it scared. And i told myself that over and over and eventually went to national level (was never a winner lol but I did it and survived which is what counted for me). Just do it scared!
@Kristine Very similar in meaning. Somethings just require fear/discomfort, that's how we grow 🌱
@@juliahatter8734 Right back at you ❤️
@@michelleschroer Wow congrats on making it to nationals 👏 I ride too and those arena nerves can be INTENSE. Plus having to convince your 1000 partner you know what you're doing 😅
I've never seen a couple so supportive each other .... Love your relationship love the trust and your love for each other what an example....
It warms my heart to watch these two, obviously in-love humans live their life to fullest every day. Thank you for sharing your travels with us!
I've been binge-watching all of your hundreds of videos since July and you have inspired me to take my first flight in 20 years this past weekend! It wasn't as scary as I thought it would be, and now I look forward to finally seeing the world! Also- I love how you both encourage each other so much. Such a positive example of a relationship.
That was incredible! I was sick to my stomach the whole time watching. I don’t know what was more impressive the sheer fact that you guys did it or the fact that you were filming and manning a drone while doing it. You guys are incredible!
what an experience! smiling along with you the whole way.. well, maybe not the whole way 😛 We laughed a bit too hard at Kara reaching for the tickets and they were behind the screen 😂 proud of you both. I, Aimee B the great would have smashed this too, but Craig nearly cried just watching it haha! GO TEAM!
You guys would do great. I forget that Craig doesn't like heights.
Hi Kinging It!! Love to see you guys cheering on your friends and fellow UA-camrs!! Love your videos and adventures too!! Can't wait to see your trip to Norway!! ❤️
Kara you are such a role model for the young and the old ... You can do anything! You're 1 of a kind my friend!
Funny how the mind works. You know they survived and yet, we are taking every step with them, every heart beat and every bit of sweat. YOU GUYS ARE AMAZING. Thank You
the way they encourage each other, kara with doing everything nate’s wild mind comes to & nate cheering her on and helping her through the hardest parts with no judgment! honestly beautiful ❤
Hey Kara and Nate! I just wanted to say thank you for being an inspiration to me for so long. I started watching your travel vlogs in 7th grade during the Trans Siberian Railway series and completely fell in love with you guys and your videos. Now, I’m a senior in high school and have probably watched every single one of your videos at least twice! You also inspired my love for travel and it’s one of the reasons I have decided to go to university in Prague next year! So, thank you for all you do. I hope you guys know how much your videos mean to your followers, even the younger ones :) -Anya Martin from Eugene, Oregon
That is so cool, Anya!!! Thank you so much for the support and encouragement. So glad you have enjoyed our videos for so long 🥰🌏❤️
Have a great senior yr. Believe memories from your life will just come out of no where when you get older, so make them count. And good luck in Prague next yr. Wishing you only prosperity love and peace in your life.
@Anya Martin I totally agree! They are the best!!
@@KaraandNate I love your videos
@@KaraandNate ❤ I really appreciate you taking time to make these amazing videos for us
I love that you guys still enjoy each other's company so much after all these years. You guys are fun!!
I love how encouraging Nate is to Kara
Kara never ceases to amaze me!! She’s so courageous and so strong. I have crazy anxiety with heights and she’s so calm and is so positive!
Me too. My palms are sweating watching them climb.
You have officially crossed over from UA-camrs to Thrill Seekers. One of my favorite videos! The 360 camera shots were amazing. The drone shots were SUPER epic. You guys are cray-zee, very brave and full of talent.
Kara is such a trooper for always being down to join Nate on these wild and crazy adventures that he comes up with lol and seeing him encourage her is so sweet. Great shots of the ladder. I have a fear of heights so I don't see myself ever doing something like this lol
He is an asshole who is pushing her out of her comfort zone and should a tragedy happen an he dies she is stuck there to survive on her own... Total jerk
This is BY FAR my most favorite video of you two! Idk how you can make someone feel so alive through your videos but you’ve accomplished that; and for that I thank you. 💕 safe travels amigos.
My absolute favorite thing about this video is getting to see how much you two truly love and support each other. It’s so wonderful to watch you cheer each other on and the encouragement and love just comes across in a way that makes us understand how you’re feeling. This video was great, you’re great. What a team!
Y’all inspire me so much. Especially you, Kara. Lots of love to Nate too, but girl the way you push through fear because you know the end result will be so worth it never ceases to amaze me. You’ve helped me get outside my comfort zone and have experiences i wouldn’t have had otherwise. Thank you all so much for sharing your journey with us, I hope you know just how much we appreciate it. Keep being you, keep shining!! 🥹✨❤️
I've watched EVERY single one of your videos, my loves... and nothing has ever scared me more than this did. Even though I know you are both fine and made it through this, I'm terrified right now. My heart is actually racing and I can't imagine anything scarier than this. Kudos to you both, though, for not only doing this but for RECORDING it so we can see it. Unreal. Love you guys! ❤
We visited Austria this year and were blown away at how beautiful the land is! Thank you for sharing this experience with us!
so you're saying nate and kara climbed up such a steep mountain AND documented, even flew a drone over the ferrata for us viewers?? you're amazing guys! good job!
And all of that in sneakers. Wow.
For real!
Do you mean it's fake?
I always feel like they have a 3rd cameron that we just don't see.
I don’t understand how you can be verging on the edge of anger yet still chuckle and smile so happily. You two really inspire.
I was literally anxious and sweating just watching this video. You two are seriously amazing and make me want to step out of my comfort zone even more (definitely could never do this) you guys just smiled through the whole thing even though you were terrified and the constant encouragement and validation made me want to cry. Love you guys so much.
I sweated the whole time watching this. You two are an inspiration! Also, the way he encouraged and praised her for her accomplishments was super sweet 🙂
The drone footage when Kara is climbing the ladder is insane. Good job guys
Love that we never know what adventure we will get with you two. Watching since 2018 and your growth is never ending. First travel vloggers to hit the 100 million subscriber's!?
True to that! ❤❤❤
my feet's feeling funny most of the time watching this.... bless you both! such stamina and grit! my heart's shouting "get down those stairs Kara!" such respect for you both.
First K&N video to make me fully cry, because I’m so proud of both of you for doing this!
I am in complete AWE!
My fear of heights would not allow me to do this lol. I'd pass out. I was sick to my stomach just watching this because of the heights. You two are something ... In a good way. Thank you for taking us on these trips with you. You two bring out the best in each other and it's beautiful to see. Love watching you two
Me too I don't know how I even get on a plane to fly I would have passed out 2 😂
Your ability to push out of your comfort zone is just as impressive as your filmmaking. So great to see you both just keep getting better and better. My daughter (who is 13 now) and I have been watching your videos together for years now and you're great role models for both of us!
All I kept thinking when ya'll reached the top was "You are only half way there! You need to get down!" I was so glad to hear Kara say that going down was worse. I would need a helicopter to meet me at the top to take me down. Good job guys! You're both incredible!
There is a (steep and not easy) hiking path down from the peak. But I strangely enough find walking down a difficult and very steep path significantly less scary than hiking up. One reason is that going up you add the physical exertion of going up the equivalent of stairs in thin air to the psychological fear of slipping and falling.
NATE YOU ARE SO AMAZING AND I LOVE THAT YOUR SUCH A GREAT SUPPORTER. Nate sensed when Kara got nervous, quickly reminded her she's okay and tells Kara she's done so much already proving she's not only strong physically but mentally. Not only that but would turn around and tell her which foot should go where, such a great leader! Nate is Kara's anchor.
Lets be real!! YOU GUYS ARE THE ULTIMATE POWER COUPLE. HANDS DOWN.
CONGRATULATIONS GUYS OMMG :))))
Seeing you guys complete such huge challenges like this and climbing the elevation of Mt. Everest in one day to Nate biking across 500 miles, staying in the jungle with nothing and surviving, swimming Alcatraz and sooooo many more, I realize I can do anything I put my mind to. Thank you Kara and Nate you guys are one of my biggest inspirations ❤️
OMG!!! My heart was racing the whole time you were climbing!!! I am proud of you too, both of you!! It is crazy that you not only climbed that mountain and ladder but filmed a video, flew a drone and talked us through it!! You guys are awesome!!! Thank you for taking us along for such an amazing adventure!! ❤️
The scariest part is trusting man-made ropes and ladders.
Having lived in the alps, I know that no photo can give off the real drama of the nature there. And I know how it must be terribly scary! Incredible of you two! I would never dare, my heart was racing watching you ❤
I have followed you for 5 years and this is by far one of the best videos you have posted... love how you push yourselves and enjoy the ride with each other. Super proud of both of you.
The visuals in this video are breathtaking!! Those drone shots!! 😍 Thank you both for carrying the heavy video equipment and for putting yourselves through that so that we at home who will probably never travel outside of USA can get to sort of experience that climb. What an amazing feat! Kara you killed it and Nate for being so encouraging! I loved it all!! 💜
I'm so proud of the both of you both. Nate you are so encouraging.
I was sitting on the edge of my couch with my heart about to come out of my chest you guys doing that ladder up that mountain. Your video editing is top notch! What a stunning place!
Kara and Nate are so ethical and kind. “Don’t do what we do unless you’ve put in the training.”
Watching this one motivated me to get up and run/walk 3 miles today. Nothing in comparison, but kept telling myself, “if Kara and Nate can do hard things, so can I.” Thanks for the nudge. And kudos on the climb!!
This! 🤍🤍
Haha. Your declarations of love are very touching. Usually the vlogs look kinda fake. But i could really feel your love and tenderness for one another. Beautiful
As an Austrian who lives about 1hour away from Gosau, I really appreciated this Video :) glad you liked the Austrian Version of Mac and Cheese called Kasnocken :))
There are quite a few famous people from Austria
There is a reason people watch every week. On top of the crazy travels, you guys got shots that are better than a team of 6 professionals camera crew. Amazing filmmaking and editing.
My heart was in my throat the whole time! Love you guys, and thank you so much for your videos. My 32 year old brother has been laying paralysed in the hospital for three months. Life is so precious and can change in a second, it just shows you have to live your life. Thanks for doing that, and for helping me not think about it for a few minutes ❤️
Finally I have discovered the perfect couple! You two are the best. Letting us see and enjoy the most exciting adventure that could exist. A taste of what a professional climber experiences. Thank you for the video!
I've almost thrown up, fainted, and cried watching Kara do this!!❤️ Girl, you are an amazing savage! Wow! What a warrior. Love you and Nate
I struggle to even watch videos like this online these days. I have developed a severe fear of heights the older I have become. I'm 100% sure I would have passed out within the first few minutes of this journey, if not the first few seconds, had I been in your place. #Respect #Shudder
I agree 100%with you. Great job Kara and Nate. Made me dizzy when they would look up or down.
Me too
I wouldn't do it either but I might have when I was younger.
At this point Kara’s gotta know that she can do literally anything Nate can do and you both are absolute beasts!
I was smiling and shaking from nerves the entire time! I’ve never been more proud of strangers lol. In the end I almost had this euphoric feeling like I was there. Beautiful mountains and nature. Thank you guys so much for sharing this beautiful experience!
As someone who is terrified of heights, I would never do something like this. But seeing how you guys handled this with your encouragements with it to each other and filmed it all is really beautiful!
Can we all just appreciate how supportive Nate is!
Yes!! I just really love the way these two love each other. It’s always a joy to witness
After swimming from Alcatraz I said there is no way you guys can ever top that challenge. And here you went and did it! Amazing! Kara is a pure rock star to have done this!
I love the way, Nate pumps, his wife up and says he’s proud of her all the time which pushes her on. What a good duo😊
I honestly have not ever watched a video where my heart was beating out of my chest so much. You guys are authentic, adventurous and kind souls and I have adored watching your epic adventures over the years. But more importantly I love watching the character you have as you approach life. I feel like I just ran a marathon watching this 😅
Really appreciate the humility from the previous glacier vlog. That was so dangerous and the fact you’re not embarrassed to admit your mistakes is a great quality in an adventurer. Thanks for keeping safety first !
Oh also! Not sure if someone commented but via ferrartas were created as ways for the military to move through the mountains in the world war. Really fascinating history to look in to
So I always appreciate how much you both support each other. But I have to say, I especially LOVE how much Nate loves when Kara does well, and especially when she beats him at anything. I hear the love in his voice. A true mutual admiration couple. You two are the coolest couple I know. I was riveted by this episode, and my heart and knees were shaking, and I was no where close to a cliff. 🤣 Another episode that crushed it! It had drama, suspense, danger, excitement, humor, terror, but above all, it was SO FUN! ❤
The views were absolutely BREATHTAKING!! - no really, I didn’t breathe the whole time you were climbing 😅😅 Y’all are superheroes for doing that!!
the love and support you two have for each other is seriously beautiful and inspiring!
Can i just say how amazing nate is for his little warning and comments on the trail because he is ahead of Kara? With the nerves that Kara had while climbing, I reckon setting expectations for Kara might’ve been helpful. Also, his encouragements and support is top-tier the most comforting thing I heard as a viewer who’s watching in anticipation 😅
Thank you. Yall are such an inspiration to me in my old age(56 haha) I have alot of health issues and have physical therapies and just pain in general(osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, ptsd) and when i have an especially hard time just walking i remember kara's joy when she finishes something really hard she at first didnt think she could do. so I push like she does and it really helps. Thanks yall have gotten me thru alot of hard times over the last 2 years there are not enough words to express my gratitude. i look forward to all yalls adventures and just plain quiet times. keep strong and safe. Bless yall xoxoxox
@Jean Lee , You are not alone, I am 56 as well, Heart Patient (died, came back two stents) Psoriatic arthritis,,etc,,,,I started following their videos recovering from my heart attack,,,,,@Kara and Nate,,,,,ya'll help me keep putting one foot in front of the other! I once climbed MT.Fuji,,you just made that look like a cake walk lol. The filming was so epic! Y'all are the Power Couple of the Century! Good Job Y'all!
Forget about climbing I am shaking while watching this video …you guys are so brave …wow 🎉
I've been climbing all my life and I love how you show all the emotions. That's how I always feel and this is very nicely described. I have much less anxiety now, but it never goes away completely.
This was by far the best video this year from this amazing duo!!! The sights of those mountains, the sound of you both switching clasp from each step you took. The small suspense music in the background and Kara went up first. Omggg so wowed by you both and excited to see what's next!!!
As someone scared of heights, my heart is just pumping just watching this!
You two are most brave couple on the internet❣️ thank you so much for bringing the climb to us. God bless you both.
It melted my heart to see how proud they both were of each other 💞
You guys find all the best places! This is something we'd love to do! Kara and Nate leading the way into both terror and exhilaration since 2016! 🤣😍
I’m afraid of heights, so I feel as though I’ve achieved a great accomplishment simply by watching this from my couch. My palms were sweating just watching you. As to how likely I would be to say yes to the ladder, a scale of 1-10 doesn’t apply, as there is zero chance I would climb. I’m glad you made it though!
SAME! I was a minute in and already dizzy. 😂😅
I commented saying the same thing: zero chance out of 1 to 10. I have a weird thing that happens to me when looking down from heights in that I feel a tingling in my feet. That happened today once even watching this video. Unbelievable the things they do.
@@lindafrance9192 I feel that tingling on the top of my head, as well as mild dizziness. It’s amazing to me that the symptoms can come when watching a video while safely planted on my couch.
I felt sick the whole video. Nope, not for a million dollars would I climb that ladder. Those two are legends
@@cqbarnieify I agree. I don’t recall having those feelings when I was younger but I sure do now. But I still have to watch. Lol
I’m just watching this adventure and want to thank you for the totally awesome and crazy climb you did. I get to live this through you two.
Kara, you are so incredibly brave, you and Nate have to be the best support system ever. There’s no way I would do this now however in my younger I probably would seriously consider it, but 35 years ago it wasn’t on anyones radar I knew. Please do remain conscious of your limitations and remain safe. Sending love and appreciation for your U tube adventures! ❤
Your drone footage is spectacular! It takes your video to the next level! Great job guys! I would NEVERRRR. You two are so inspiring. Keep it up.
I lived in beautiful Austria for several years, but never in my wildest dreams would I have done what you two just did! Absolutely terrified of heights and my palms sweaty the whole time watching. Bravo!!!!!
I could never do this. I have extreme fear of heights. My stomach was doing flip flops while watching yr vlog. Thanks for doing those extreme things i would never imagine about doing. I look forward to yr vlogs every week
We have been subscribers of your channel since you were ~100k strong. Usually, big channels start slacking off when they hit 1M or so, but you guys have shown the same kinda commitment, if not more, even after hitting 3M. The way you have build this channel with sheer blood and sweat is very inspiring. It motivates couples around the world to believe that they can make it too….if they work hard enough. Love & admiration from India.
-Fellow 33yr olds trying to build a travel channel as colourful & inspiring as yours.
I’m just going to say it, you guys are freakin AWESOME! That took a lot of courage to climb that ladder, but it only goes to show a few things. 1) Never be afraid to do anything 2) Feelings of inner weakness will disappear, and 3) Be grateful to experience the world we live in no matter where that may be. Amazing Video!!!
You deserve all the awards for not only doing this challenge, but getting those camera angles at the same time with a team of two! WOAH!
These routes/trails with fixed cables are called “Klettersteig”. I think he explained it well…it’s a mix of hiking and climbing, usually in terrain that requires fixed cables or ladders in order to be “hikable”. In Europe Klettersteige are considered harder than hiking but easier than technical mountaineering or climbing. It’s a rather safe option with the extra thrill.
Our favorite video of yours guys! Our hearts were racing just watching you climb! So exciting and incredible at the same time. Well worth it for those views and the feeling of overcoming your fears at the end.
Holy moly that's crazy to think they managed to climb it all the way, I can feel my heart beating just watching them climb higher
No guide
And all alone! No guide just themselves, the camera, and the passerbys pointing and taking pictures 😂 I love amazing views, but i'd be wayyyy too scared to do that!
You kind of have to go all the way, once you started. As going down the same track is so much harder. Still a huge achievement.
KARA, anytime you feel like something is too tough and scary and then you go on to accomplish it with video proof, that inspires me greatly. For someone who cannot conquer challenges like this anymore due to physical disabilities, seeing you do it, almost gives me the same satisfaction as doing it myself! Next time you think something may be too difficult, do it for the person that wants to but cannot!
Love this! The fact that they inspire and motivate so many different people is amazing. ❤
2nd this, treveller youtubers like this are living my fantasy life now. But still hope a breakthrough comes before I'm too old to at least travel further again.
I think Kara and Nate NEED to do the amazing race. Their life is basically already the amazing race, lol
HOLY SHITTT this looks so cool ohmygod, love the filming and the fact that the video looked like we were climbing with u guys. This makes me want to go climbing so bad aahhh I can’t wait to travel and do fun stuff like this !! U guys are such inspirations
I have a huge fear of heights so part of me thinks you are crazy for doing this, but the other part has a lot of respect for you trying things I wouldn't be brave enough to do. That's why you are two of my favourite UA-camrs.
This is one of my all time favorite videos! I love the beautiful views and the positive vibes and encouragement you two share with each other (Nate cheering on Kara is adorable). Kara, even if you do not crave these challenges, you were made for them! You looked like such a natural climber😁
