Ever wondered if you could track a parcel using one of Apple's AirTags? Well in this episode I sent three! One to North Korea, one to Tim Cook at Apple, and one to Elon Musk at SpaceX. This opens a whole new world to tracking post! It was a wild journey. Strap yourself in and enjoy!

I'm second to see that.
Fingers-crossed 🤞
North Korea's borders have been closed for months because of Covid. They probably haven't moved because nothing is going in or out of that country atm

Ok, we'll check it out when it comes out!
Lol imagine Tim Cook saying "Our customers are absolutely loving AirTags. Some even sent it to my office to check if they work or not!" at the WWDC
So true. And who knows, maybe he didn't have one yet! 😂
@@fredn9682 hes probably one of the only people in the world who can bind more than 16 airtags to one apple id so an aditional one wont hurt
Lol
@@maxwfk if he doesn’t know where his stuff is, someone else fucked up.
I read that in Tim Apple’s voice
You’re so surprised that the parcels came to the destination when this is the only thing that DHL has to do😂
You’d be surprised at how often they can’t do the one thing they’re in the business of doing lol

It's not that simple...
Apple's parcel wasn't delivered to its intended destination via DHL. As I said in the video, some businesses have mail forwarding / redirection services in place. DHL delivered the parcel to a logistics partner, paid for by Apple. From there, it could have gone anywhere. Luckily for me, it went where I wanted it to go!
Another example of this would be if you sent a parcel to the Whitehouse. It's highly unlikely that it would actually reach the Whitehouse. Most likely it would be diverted to a separate facility where it would be screened by security / secret service.
It really is that simple hahaha, packages get to places u are dumb to be so shocked hahahaha
@@pudge789789 Yeah you’re probably right hahahaha 🤪🤪
Am I the only one with safety concerns? Imagine someone sending these to someone with a public PO Box who they are a fan of just to eventually find out their address. Scary stuff.
~Yeah..its a concern..in Japan..the Hololive Vtubers company decide not to accept some gifts from their fans to their favourite Vtubers fearing the fan use AirTag to discover the Vtubers address
open the package by the po box or in a coffee shop nearby
@@mimipipi120 "Ah yes my favourite dog turd bad unboxing at starbucks"
Car thieves are using these now. When they come across a car they want they place a tag on it then later that night go to the home and steal it.
I watched a keynote by a youtuber known as LockpickingLawyer. He is hellbent on concealing his identity for countless safety concerns. He has had fans send him tracking devices numerous times and never opens fan-mail at home.
This will blow up.
Elon musk zone! I subbed to u!!!
Cheers man, fingers crossed!
@@MegaLag Is this your first UA-cam channel? You seem to know exactly how to make great videos!
@@ElonMusk-FanZone Thanks again for the kind words! Last time I uploaded a YoutTube video (on an old channel) was about 6 years ago. But I usually (currently unemployed) work as a creative producer / motion designer for TV Commercials. So my work experience definitely helps :D
Checked out your channel - loved your trailer! Elon Musk is a legend!
@@MegaLag thanks mate! If I could buy stocks in channels I would invest in yours! Your channel will blow up so hard!
“Man is thoroughly amazed that mailing things actually works.”
Yeah I'm watching this like, stop fucking pretending you're surprised the airplane moved your object
@@deprilula28 no way, I know you
@@deprilula28 I think a lot more of the surprise and amazement came at how DHL would straight up lie about the packages and where they were
@@deprilula28 I think a lot more of the surprise and amazement came at how DHL would straight up lie about the packages and where they were
as someone living on a different continent from my family, the fact that a package I paid a logistics company to deliver actually gets delivered is not really that surprising anymore.
Now we have to send an AirTag to Area 51… for scientific purposes.
This has got to be the most comprehensive experiment for the AirTag, I sincerely hope Apple would see your work. And that your channel grow more.
Thanks Jeff! Glad you found it insightful. It really does show how extensive Apple's FindMy network is!
Music was a bit much
there is another guy who did similar to this..
ah yes, "his work", you mean the idea he literally stole from another guy named airtagalex?
@@8kcompression770 haha I’m in contact with Alex! Really nice guy!

Jajajajajaja
Ape finds out that package go different place when he pays to ship it
it's DHL paket which is just post... Its not the DHL Express courier service.
@@tcrossau Exactly, it’s a bit confusing in Germany. The parcel service of the German postal service is cobranded with DHL as DHL Parcel. Whats internationally known as DHL is DHL Express and he didn’t use that.

Haven't started watching the video yet. My first thought upon looking at the title and thumbnail is: "Wow, that sounds like a good way to get yourself put on a watchlist or three."
when your own product gets sent back to you for no reason
tim cook: 👁️👄👁️
If he was, he’d just say “hey, could someone look up who’s that is, and the last time the checked location?”, then he could call our boy and say “Hey, did you want your tag back for the video?”
That's when you know you're doing capitalism the right way
@@lucasmartin4883 how?
@@papasscooperiaworker3649 when your product is so good people pay for it, only to give it back so you can sell it to more people
@@lucasmartin4883 but its now a used product so it loses its value + unsanitary
Since its used, performance could be worse
Great video with such an amazing idea, hopefully this blows up and pushes your a channel a long way!
Hopefully 🙏
I say it did
It did
1.5 million views.. I'd say so!
@yeet ma feet ?
Imagine kim jong-un's suprise when he looks in his mailbox and finds an airtag...
He's paranoid enough without somebody sending him a tracking device. (Not that this YT movie is about sending an airtag to the Fat Man himself.)
Got this on the browse feature. Great content. I have airtags and was never interested in tile or another version. It's great to know they are actually working as intentded. I have mine hidden with some pretty valuable items.
Thanks Chevy! Enjoy the new AirTags, they work great!
The only problem with airtags is that if you walk away from it will alert EVERY iphone user who comes close to it. It also starts to beep so they can find it.
@@quentonschneider9166 I don’t know where people get this info from. But that’s 100% incorrect. I’ve tested this vigorously. Apple only notify other iPhone users if they are absolutely certain a AirTag is traveling with them
I did not expect you to be here.
@@MegaLag MegaLag did you know Android users that has a NFC chip in their phone can use the Apple AirTags.
This guy's a genius. I just paid attention to someone talking about mailing some packages for more than 10 minutes. He's mastered everyone's ADHD lol

Unbelievable that parcels make it to their intended destinations...
Yeah, 'unbelievable'... 🙄
Mind Blowing!
What a time to be alive!

@@thulanihlatshwayo78 haha amen brother!
Tech video of the year. That was so awesome. I bought 2 - 4 packs the day they came out. I live in a small island in the philippines with a lower economic population. It is useful around the house but still trying to figure out how well they work otherwise. I have only had them for a few days as it took time to be shipped here.
Thanks Tim! Beautiful country you're living in! Will be interesting to see how effective they are there.
@@MegaLag its actually surprising North Korea even has iPhone users
The galaxy tags might probably be better for you
Your kid wants some in the USA. He didn’t have money for sneakers but you have money for tags.
@@calebgangte1228it obviously doesn't. Maybe the higher politicians and diplomats like Kim Jong-un himself but iPhone is not allowed to be sold there.
I've never seen someone so amazed that packages arrive at noted address destination. It happens... every single day. How in the world are you surprised this is a thing.
You clearly havent dealt with the postal systems most of us have.
@@chestnut4860 Since I'm pretty sure we use the same postal system, I'm willing to bet your and the creator of the video are just drama queens.
When this guy is tracking his AirTags going across the world, I’m still attempting to track my AirTags using the Apple Store app, which don’t seem to have left Apple’s warehouse yet
Another, excellent video. DHL sucks, worse than /fedex (aka ... the weakest link in shipping) USPS is great, UPS is Better. We have stats from millions of shipments over several decades ..... learn to cook with our pro Chefs .
Lol
Is it there yet
With DHL prices it's amazing that the parcels just sit at an airport for a whole week
Wow, you mailed stuff to companies and they received your stuff.
Amazing.
This is the happiest guy I've ever seen in my life.

Haha thanks, more content to come!
@@MegaLag yeh same

A week later and hes at 21k, hes already on his way to 50k!
The idea, editing, and humor is immaculate great video bud
Honestly these airtags may be solid for returning high-priced goods since postal tracking can be so unreliable.
Man mails a package. Man gets excited when package is sent to exactly where he sent it. WOW
Seriously, it was mind blowing. You have no idea. Especially tracking it mid-flight. Or did you skip that part?
I can’t believe I watched all of that, just someone being absolutely amazed at mail
The best video I’ve seen in a very long time 😂

Thanks Jack!
yes thanks!
+1 Great quality, love the footage of the actual flights and the airtag/find my maps!
“Insert 👍🏻 to begin” smart
Regarding the Airtag going to Apple that was at what looked like a logistics center, it's likely an Apple-owned building where inbound packages and mail to all Apple buildings are screened. Most larger companies screen all inbound mail for threats.

For real
The editing of this video makes it seem like you’re surprised you can mail a parcel 😂 what’s surprising is how well the AirTags worked for tracking!
I love how pumped you are that packages arrived at their destinations. lol
This is kinda actually dangerous to know. Imagine a bomb with an air tag in a package, the device could be detonated near any target the air tag says it's by, which would allow you to select targets on the parcels path.
So, just the Unabomber?
One time someone tried to send a bomb to my business. DIDNT WORK CAUSE IM SMART
@@CupwakeRBLX kiddo. stop faking it
I reckon the bomb is the more dangerous element in that scenario ... maybe just.
@@richardparke4105 of course the bomb is more dangerous but the air tag allows real time target acquisition
Mate.. you and your channel are well on your ways to the top. With this kind of detailed storytelling and quality planning/investigating… idk… you’re just a great creator. Please don’t stop. You absolutely have what it takes to be in the 1,000,000+ club. And not just because your videos are fun or easy to watch etc but because of the actual quality of them. Keep it up man, you’ve got a hell of a life ahead of you.

Send a literal Apple to Tim Cook with an air tag attached to it lmao
0:28 Airtags do start to beep if they are not near their owners phone after 3 days (Bluetooth connection)
That makes no sense at all. Imagine you use it to track a bag, and you go for a trip without it. Is it gonna be beeping until you come back? Don’t be ridiculous
@@gabrielcho999 Apple states the Airtag will start beeping if it is not near the owners phone for 3 days and then gets moved.
If you leave your bag at home it won't beep, unless the bag gets moved.
this was a great idea I just felt like it had 9 minutes to much time on this tbh
Im happy to see this guy gaining subs this quickly, he went up like 1.5k in a month
Okay I'm totally invested in this story and need part 2 LOL Can't wait to see how to works out!
pretty interesting way to track pagkages, especially high valued items incase if they get lost or "lost" (per USPS)
but with the location accuracy it will be pretty hard to find if it gets lost inside say, sorting facility which can be pretty large with bunch of other packages in there.
well, i didn’t know you could even ship stuff to north korea
Frankly, I still don't know if you can
@@DanielSultana North korea is part of the international post organization, you can send them any mail and it'll get delivered by other countries
Now, I'm wondering If It's legal for me to send some packages to N.korea from here S.Korea. feel like It would go agaist some national security law, and I get contacted by national intelligence right away lmao
US citizens are restricted from sending most things to the DPRK, given current sanctions on them.
@@nicholasbenge9497 it's not about sending things, it's about sending things which are economically valuable, a letter or a postcard isn't worth anything and won't help the regime
You are a great storyteller! I started following you after the first AirTag story that was so intriguing, and now you're making an even more interesting follow-up! I can't wait for part 2.
Thanks mate! Glad you enjoyed the content :D
Respect to that one German pilot who had to go to North Korea
Damn Bro! Where did you come from!? I feel like out of nowhere you’re dropping crazy high quality and interesting videos. This can’t be your first time doing this… Awesome Job, subscribed!
Do you have another channel or something these are really professional videos considering you only have 3. Great work though.
Haha thanks man, appreciate the kind comment.
@@MegaLag that was a very informative response. LOL. Way to dodge the question. Leads me to believe this is a reupload channel and it's someone else's content.
@@littlejackalo5326 what’s s reupload channel? 😂 The conspiracy is real!
@@MegaLag yeah keep pretending you don't know what a reupload channel is, what you think just because your channel is the only one containing these videos that you are any less suspicious???🧐

I love this. This shows how technology is important and has come along way. Can’t wait for the end results.

Kick ass video man, keep it up, follow your dreams
It would be a cool gimmick by apple if you were able to track the package when you order an AirTag through the AirTag app
@@j.d6009 shut up
When you grow big on UA-cam I could officially say that I've been here from the beginning!
That confirms what I already thought about dhls tracking information. It's so bad and delayed and often more a approximation of where your package actually is. For the extra price they could at least do it on time.

Funny that there's one phone on Antarctica. Just one guy chillin the web by himself instead of working.
Isn't the fact that this works kinda creepy? You could throw an air tag into someone's bag and track where they go.
There are measures in place to prevent that. If you have an iPhone, it will tell you if someone else's AirTag is following you. If you don't have an iPhone, the AirTag will make a noise to alert anyone nearby of its presence.
Can’t fault the product for doing what it was made to do
This video could have also been titled “why DHL is a very poor shipping company.”
Peak poor
Well my experience matches what he said. For deliveries to certain countries DHL maybe the only option. DHL goes where nobody else would.
DHL is actually pretty good and probably the only one that is shipping to NK
Wow this is incredible! I can’t believe you have such a small channel.
Thanks Paul!
I wonder how apple staff (or probably Tim himself) react when they know someone sent them an airtag

would be nice to hide it in your, under or on your boss or his car that way you know when you need to pretend like you're working. eh? haha

Honestly a lot of people have bought professional set up before they start, to look like they are trusted/likable. There's mixed reviews on whether you should, but it seems to have worked for him
How happy he is that his packages are being delivered. That's a normal thing...

great stuff. I have questions:
* was that google earth you used? How did you manage to make the airtags appear in the 3d aerial views... or did you just manually add the positions to google earth or something?
* how did you make sure you could track all locations? were you able to automate that or did you manually refresh it on an iphone all the time?
It was apple maps. Not sure about 2nd ques tho
