We lost my daughter this past Thanksgiving from brain cancer and her mural was in the temple this year even though she wasn’t able to be there in person and neither was I. Thank you for this is was the best and truest view of this year’s burning man and I wish I could have been there! 🎉
I'm very sorry for your loss. I am so Glad her mural made it to the temple..
May her soul, her memory, and her art remain as an everlasting testament to her brief life here among us mortals.
Blessings to you and your daughter. I was in the Temple. I wonder if I saw it? It was a beautiful Temple and they had many ceremonies and the philharmonic orchestra play inside of it. What a beautiful way to honor your daughter ❤
My deepest condolences! So very sorry for your loss.
May the Four Winds blow her safely home!
This made me happy. . . Thanks
Sarah, this coverage of Burning Man was so well done that it should be shown on the History channel as a documentary of the 2023 event. You did an excellent job including the fantastic narration. You should be very proud of this video.
Stunning and Brave!
Standing against capitalism by standing for communism, at a capitalist agenda gathering!
Standing against world pollution by polluting a desert!
Standing against racism and the oppressed, by abusing an Indian tribe and polluting the land!
Sounds like liberals!
Lmao the history channel
I loved this presentation (thank you}; however, I believe that we should love and appreciate the weekend warrior, too. @@Minouser8
Sucks big time!
i agree. bravo 👏 👏 👏
What a wonderful find! I'd seen one of your videos last year when you were trekking somewhere in the desert alone but I had forgotten to subscribe then and had since forgotten your name. So thrilled to have found you again and really enjoyed watching this particular video since you described everything so perfectly with your sense of humor and individual style. I think your analysis of this year's Burning Man is the best and most accurate one. Thank you so much! I really had fun with this one. And it looks like you did too.
My husband and I absolutely LOVE you, Sara!!!!!!!
He is 69 yrs old, I am 67 yrs old.
You are so gifted, funny, talented.
We travel in our self designed cargo van.
We pray to God that we run in to your during one of our travels.
You are a beautiful, intelligent, creative human, who understands how to enjoy life.
We love you dearly!!!!!💕🌺🤸🏼♂️💃
She made it back alive... Despite the mainstream media's dark predictions! Thank god! 🙂
her rig has ebola....
Nice to get an agenda free report
Finally, the real news from Wonderhussy.
I have the chills! So fun, wish I would have gone.

Q
Q❤❤❤
I was worried about her. I'm all the way in Connecticut.
Exactly 💯👍
I remember when week long winter electric outages were pretty common in our rural community. Most people were pretty well prepared and expected it. The recent arrivals might freak out a little but quickly realized it really wasn't a serious problem. There was plenty of supplies to go around. If a big tree fell and blocked the road people would arrive with chainsaws and the road would be reopened quickly. A lot of us kind of looked forward to it. Seems like the news media wanted to turn this years Burning Man into a major disaster but for many of the attendees it was anything but a tragedy.
This is a first for me. First time ever seeing the "Burning Man" event from an inside perspective...and first time ever seeing Wonderhussy. I started off just watching the first few minutes, but stayed for the entire show! This lady is very easy for me to understand. I fell under her spell. She was so good at this kinda presentation I may have to watch her again. Her sense of humor is sublime and captivating. Utterly charmed me right thru the estrogen bath! Loved the whole thing!
OMG This mirrored my experience almost exactly! I laughed, cried & shouted watching this. It's like you were sitting on my shoulder chirping the same thoughts into my ear as they were happening. The rains only made this burn better. A little adversity breeds resilience and brings us weird humans a bit closer together. Thanks for the memories!
*WHAT A BRILLIANT PRESENTATION* ! Compared to what was being presented on the News channels and other individual videos, this has got to be one of the finest on UA-cam covering this event ! Well done Sarah Jane. You've shown all the others how it is to be done. 💯💢
The difference in most other individual's videos is they did just clips of this mess and that mess, and don't have the experience of scripting a full feature 'documentary' video like she does. And of course the news is limited to showing the worst in less than 2 minutes.
@@jazzcatt Exactly ✅
Well said!
Both of you have great comments! Wise and insightful! KOKO!
@@jazzcatt I got the impression, that there was a lack of will, not necessarily a lack of video cutting experience with the oher dramatizing Burning Man desaster "reporters".
One especially wanted to rant over drugged hippies and made up his tales out of the material he could gather, others wanted drama or apocalypse and picked their footage accordingly.
MEDIA, "Thousands at Burning Man without food and water. All vehicles stuck in mud with no way out."
Wonderhussy, "We are having a blast!"
The thing is, the news was actually telling the truth. Yes, vehicles were badly stuck in the mud, especially the idiots that tried to drive through 4 to 6 inches of surface water, not knowing how thick and deep the mud underneath was! They did it to themselves after being told to stay in place. The ones without food and water were being supported by the ones like Sarah, who truly understand the concept of self reliance and impromptu kitchens set up by Burners. Yes, there was some stealing of food and water by jerks that don't understand what self reliance means. You carry MUCH more than you need, and are ready for anything and everything the desert can, and does, throw at you. When you leave, and go through the reservation, you donate your unopened, unused, extra food to the 'food bank' on the res. Burners feed a lot of hungry Paiute people with those donations!
You forgot to mention the Ebola outbreak too!😱🤣😂✌️
@@jazzcatt I just leave unopened items, booze and water to DPW.
Yes, very well said! The news made it look like a disaster area.
What about the dead guy?
Brilliant. When one door closes, another door opens. Something there that for some folks is hard to grasp, and yet for others it is just plain as day obvious. Your use of language brings this message across in a crystal clear, unambiguous way. Well done, and thanks from the heart on your achievement.
One of the best videos I ever saw on a UA-cam channel. The editing, the writing and your authentic connection to the event with respect to delivery made this amazing to watch...and learn about. Just AWESOME.
As usual, you are the best storyteller ever. The mainstream media literally fabricated their own disaster version of the event. What better place to be stuck for a few extra days than with 65000 of your closest friends.
"If you fight reality, reality always wins!" Love that! This is my hands down FAVORITE video from you. When I saw those eyes of yours at the temple burn, my eyes went wet (like now as I write this.) Thank you for sharing the view of how it really was there this year.
That was my soul animal 😅
... the solemn tuba player, the emotional moment during the burning and wonderhussy declaration that this edition of burning man is one of her favorites lends one to think that suffering is something she craves.... and I shall now Christian you,,, St.wondehussy,,,provocateur of mischief!!!!
Thank you so much for making this video! This is the first video that I’ve seen that shared the story of what actually happened in the rain and mud at the burn where everyone came together and had a blast. And agreed - the actual man and temple burns were magical because they were so intimate, and we all had the application we may never see a burn like this again.
OMG best Wonderhussy episode ever. Dishing out equal doses of reality and fantasy and just keeping it real. On a side note hope you got to see more of Postman Brian! Maybe you did get the Burning Man you needed. Thanks for being you.
That will be the day hahahaha
Wonderhussy did say you get the burn you need with a smile. Her silver suit revealed that she is not shy.
Awesome! Awake, not woke.
❤
What a wonderful presentation. Great filming, great editing, and amazing commentary. Well done Ma'am! ❤
Sarah, I watched a lot of Burning Man videos while you were gone. Your video was so well done, you are simply the best! I loved the video, the editing, the humor and the excellent narration and storyline. You should be very proud of this video. Well done. I look forward to your videos every week. You are an amazing Woman! Congrats.
As a long time, older Burner (1998 - 2010 and a couple of others) I enjoyed your report. It looked like burn night and the temple were more like 1998 with 15,000 total in attendance. Great stuff!
I loved the way those tribal police handled the climate protestors blocking the road
Nevada Rangers Rule !!!
Don't mess with the Tribal police!
any fo_l that paid money to go to that shit show deserves to be laughed at! still love you girl but i guess we all learn from our mistakes
Me too! They made the protesters cry. 😭😢 I liked that. 😅
Ya, but, the understanding is most of those attending, are the more-so Democrat's/§Liberal ..anti. T-man type...who shud LOVE those Hippie protesters.
I have not watched all of this but in the first three minutes i knew it would be the best video around on Burning Man 2023 😂
That was absolutely fabulous. Thank you so very much for sharing all the events and scenery and you joyful commentary. Lots of love Lynda from Texas.
You are such a gifted story teller, im grateful i stumbled upon your channel a few years ago 🙏 thank you for all the effort you put into these videos, this is one of my favorites, so far!
The best!
You had me teary-eyed with homesickness in the first few minutes. I always stayed in the bus rider tent city, roughing it. You reminded me of the advice, "Plan your burn. Burn your plan. Grace to those who will clean up this mess.
So grateful you showed us another experience than was seen on the news! I can see why you enjoyed it more after the posers left! Thanks for the great content Wonderhussy!
Posers? Some people have a life. Some people have commitments to their work.
Work that benefits the rest of us.
The mainstream media is always negative and over sensationalized. Have to get the real story from Wonderhussy, the best on UA-cam.
Why do you think spending hours of filming and editing and reporting live from an obviously highly publicized event isn't a commitment to work? Are you saying that journalists and news reporters don't have "real" jobs? If watching coverage of this particular event doesn't interest or "benefit" you, why are you wasting your time watching it, not to mention bitching about it? Maybe you should stick to your Netflix, Prime and HBO @@TheBandit7613
So great to see coverage like this! You seem to always take any situation feel positive. Great video and coverage of Burning Man. Glad you were alright! ❤
Thank you for sharing this inside look, without the fee of a backdoor pass. Very informative and entertaining, thank you.
Another great video! Glad to see the Burners who toughed it out and kept a positive attitude were rewarded with good weather and the burning of the man and temple at the end!
I knew we’d get the real story from you Wonderhussy!
Thank you👍🏻
Glad you had a great time🙂
Thank you thank you thank you! I went in 09 and I get what your saying. I hope this years burn clears out some of that mud, and i hope to join you again next year, partly because my sister dared me to come back ❤
I knew we could count on Wonderhussy to have a good time. No matter what the conditions.
This Lady always manages to find the best in everything. 😊
And finally, pcitures of the art, not only mud. Great video thanks!
Yah, there is some really awesome art and not enough pics out there of it. I saw there was a big bear sitting on a throne and his fur was made out of pennies standing on their sides!
Glad to hear what really happened at Mud Man and it wasn’t a disaster.👏👏
Best coverage of the muddy festival I have seen ! Thank you ! You have such a great positive attitude.
Awesome video! Thanks for sharing.
WH, the best storyteller on UA-cam ! Very entertaining. Love all your videos !!
So good ❤
I watched a lot of videos and coverage of burning Man 2023, but yours is definitely the best! You should be on a bigger platform. I think you could grow your audience far beyond just UA-cam.
WH is an outstanding journalist. A local news station in Vegas should give her a gig doing these rip-roaring stories. She deserves a lot of credit for so many folks all over the world falling in love with Nevada and the Mojave. George Knapp should interview her (and get her a gig).
Sarah would be a natural for reality TV. Hope she gets a big break soon!
Thank you so much for sharing. Your experience was so beautiful.
I work as a movie extra in Vancouver, BC, frequently we use plastic bags on our feet inside our shoes to keep our socks feet dry during cold and rainy shoots.
Wonderful! I lived in New Orleans for many years, and this captures a similar vibe. People should always make their own fun and not expect it to be provided. Truly free-spirited
Yes, Jazz Festival EVERY year.. NOLA born and bred♥️ getting muddy at Jazz Fest is a tradition!
If not rain and mud then wind and dust. I'm surprised that other people were also there. This vlog is the best cover of burning man 2023.
You best work to date , could feel the passion and pride in your roots , nice to be stripped back to basics every so often
Your presentation and descriptive talents, as well as your particular brand of freak, REALLY shined on this one! You Delivered a unique and captivating experience!
What a great storyteller you are, Sarah! Interviews, reflections, costumes!
Stumbled upon this wonderful story, I must admit this has been the most entertaining story I've ever experienced on UA-cam. Great work !!
You're hilarious! I love your sense of humor. You had me laughing all the way through. Thank you! This was my first burn... I have to go edit my own Burning Man 2023 vlog now!
Thank you so much for this. You are wonderful! I also had the best burn yet. Nine years in and so looking forward to next year.... I hear there will be snow! Ha! bring it!!!
Yaaay! That was exactly the update I was hoping for. I wondered how you faired and suspected that the "adverse" conditions might have been a blessing in disguise for true burners. So glad that turned out to be the case.
So glad we had YOU WH on the ground to report to us! Safe travels friend!
A classic video that is current. Loved the intro and the video was well muddy which I love. Keep making these amazing videos!
You shot and edited this beautifully!
This was my fave video from you yet 🤩 wow the intro was epic. Loved your perspective of it all from being there over a decade and your positivity that you shared with everyone. Well done!!
My first burn was in 2000. It has definitely grown to big for me but still looks fun.
Thanks for giving us a real look at what happened. ❤
I feel you. This was also my 13th burn. I have felt lots of disenchantment, jadedness, and snark for many the same reasons. The rain and mud certainly did bring out the best in people. So yeah, see you next year
Not sure how I came across your channel but I REALLY REALLY enjoyed every second of it... Cheeks hurt from the smile that stuck to my face from the moment I started it the video!!! Thank you!!! Safe travels ❤
Been patiently waiting for your report. I wasn't disappointed Wonderhussey. GOOD JOB!!!!!
I read an article yesterday, i think from the Washington post. They interviewed Wonderhussy about the 2023 Burning Man festival. You now know who are the diehard Burners!
It could have been daily mail, thanks.
I saw a lot of haters posting in the comments section in that article. Saying things like "How can Sarah have so much time to waste in the muddy desert!" and other such nonsense.
I'd say they are just jealous!
@@davidg4288 Jealous indeed, they haven't allowed themselves the ability to walk away from the daily grind of office work and do what Wonderhussy is doing. She isn't wasting her time; she is doing what she wants to do. More power to her!
Was eagerly waiting for your take on Burning Man 2023. You did not disappoint us! Hope you git out without getting stuck in that muck.
I was so worried about you Wonder Hussy!! So glad I worried for nothing. I loved your video and glad to know you thrived. 💗
That was a wonderful story. I love the positivity. I figured that you would love it when the rain came. I am glad that only the die hards would stay for the rest of the festival. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us. When given rain, make mud art.
good to see you made it out of the protesters and rain...onward and upward to your next adventures
Not enough warpaint for you
WOW!!!
An epic episode.
WH at her very finest.
A beautifully documented improvisational dance with Mother Nature.
Bravo!!
Came across this video by accident. Great job ,funny narration...and so real , i get the vibe you got. Nature brings things back to reality and challenges us . We accept or reject nature either way she don't care.. she just is...burn or no burn..😂🎉😅.. much love to you ❤hussy..🚴
Let this be a lesson for anyone who thinks the news media is about facts and truth... They're not! They are about drama and sensationalism. Thanks Sarah! You're awesome!
What news were you watching? A muddy mess and the road closed is what I saw. And Wonder Hussy confirms it.
Imagine this weather every three out of four years.....then in your mind say.. "GLASTONBURY"...
Actually it was a lot worse than what they reported. Wonderhussy tends to stretch the truth to suit her own needs
@@phillipgraves4721Where you there?
Lol exactly I knew that burning still went on
I have admit, Sarah, this one of your best videos yet. I think the smaller crowd helped. But the attendance was still over 70,000. I'm glad you were able to watch the MAN burn. The temple seems a more solum affair. And I'm glad the rain helped. It did cut down on the severity of your Playa Lung. Happy trails. 🎉
Nicely done. Thanks.
Thanks for the honesty.
I must compliment you on your piece; the first three minute introduction was world class Academy Award stuff for film (video) editing.
Why she doesn't have a mega hit show on the Travel Channel or Discovery is beyond me. She's every bit as good, or better than the shows on any of those channels.
You create a mood and a feeling ( if those are different?) that really works for me. Introspective yet cheerful. Observing as well as participating. Letting all us armchair types experience it all. Thanks! 😍🙏
Thank you for this perfect, UNBIASED coverage from a BurningMan Veteran.
♥ thanks for sharing all this with us, right-on ♥
PS: excellent editing
So glad you had fun and was renewed in the burn!🔥🌧🌈🌞 Thanks for the Huss report! 🎉❤😊
Much appreciated, you’re a great storyteller!
What a poetic and thought-provoking episode! So deeply profound. Definitely one of my favorite Wonderhussy Adventure videos to date!
I want to thank you ❤🙏so much for SHOWING what really happened. For some strange reason there has been no videos (besides news! Quick short Videos) posted on UA-cam on what was actually happening and going on. Yours is the first and best❤. Thank you so much. Been searching for days and your came up automatically when I opened UA-cam this morning.
Sarah I was waiting for this and when I saw it I thought we will get the true story. This documentary of Burning Man 2023 will be right up there with the Woodstock movie, you have produced a historical primary source!
Very nice!!!
I felt the Temple burn.
Didn't expect that at all but I'm so glad I did!
Stay safe girl,we love you!
SO GOOD!! I wish I could like it more than once!! Well captured and excellent commentary.
One of your best. Thank you!
It costs more for one person to attend this than the Feds gave are giving a whole family in Maui after their houses burned to the ground. Lets that sink in.
Rumor has it they Chem trailed this party to push climate change and an experiment to see how 70,000 people would act.
This is the report I was waiting for 🤣
Love your positivity! Great video. Very uplifting. 🌈
I have been waiting for this video, so glad you made it out okay. The art and get together vibe is very Zen for me. Very well done video!💕
The NEWS IS TERRIBLE!! I laughed when they said people are running out of food and water within a couple days. These people were going for a WEEK and USUALLY in the HOT HEAT. They should have brought enough food and water for that. WHY would they run out so soon when the weather was cooler? SO HAPPY you are safe and had an INTERESTING historical burning man. Glad to finally hear from you!!
It's to push climate change they sprayed the party with chemy trails
Fabulous storytelling about this event. Thank you for posting this. From this video Burning Man 2023 seems like the Burning Man humanity needs. Good for us, not always good to us.
I was at Sequoia National park when the stormed rolled in. 😅 We are used to having a sunny Labor Day weekend at sequoia. But this year was different too. We never made it to the water nor lake because it was cold !
Pleasantly surprised. Like going back in time. A true gift. Thanks for the video!
I had a feeling you were making a good time of it. Good lesson about embracing the moment and finding the positives. Especially when you get to camp out! Best times ever.
This was such a well thought out on site report. So glad that the fun continued with so many partiers having such good attitudes. I have never been, but I hope maybe one day I might. Such a good event. Maybe those who are not real burners will rethink if they will return. Thank you for the video. Everyone stay safe, happy and healthy. From Henrico County Virginia
Loved it! ❤
I love you and your videos, and this is one of my favorites!
THANKS!
Oh, I've been waiting on this one after the rains. Will be there next year! ❤ Haven't been since 2011 and so much has changed.
Always been a fan and hoped someday I'd make it out there. As the years have gone by life has just evolved to the poiny that I'm now just enjoying the official live feed abd videos like this. You would definitely be a great neighbor to have in the desert and rain or no rain it would be a fun time. Glad you got the extended stay. One for the books! Thanks again. Great documentary driven coverage in the 1st person.
Excellent video and coverage of what it's really like at burning man! Love you Wonderhussy! You always make me smile! ❤️
So much fun to watch this and it's nice to see that the good ol' Burner humor is still around. I've been going since 2006 and have taken a few years off due to the heat, crowds, and that pesky "playa-pneumonia". I remember the day-long dust storm of 2008 that nearly canceled the Burn and people were freaking out then, but it didn't make the national news. Sometimes you just have to chill and go with the flow.
I remember that day. It was depressing and yet a day I can recall in detail with positivity.
I’m a corporate pilot and had several calls to come rescue stranded campers at burning man. The money was 4 and 5 times normal rates but I wasn’t taking a chance getting stuck in the mud on the airfield in a 7 million dollar plane in addition passengers tracking mud and dust on the seats and carpet. I could have chartered an older aircraft and had it detail cleaned at the rates people we willing to pay but it wasn’t worth the hassle. Hope everyone gets home we safe.
Funny to me how helpless rich people are.
This illustrates the real attendees of the new Buring Man: wealthy corporate yuppies who care nothing about the environment and everything about promoting their shallow, narcissistic agenda.
I read that the festival shut the airport down. And no way you could land in that slick mud.
I thoroughly enjoyed watching your video! Thanks for sharing!! Well done!!
Thanks for sharing
