End of the rally?! Our car died (Put foot rally Africa Part Two)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 сер 2023
- Put foot rally adventure through Africa Part 2 has landed! But its not quite how we expected or wanted it to go…
Gorgeous George’s time has come to an end.
It’s a very sad day for all 😭
RESPEKT tho little G - you did your beach buggy club proud. 🏆
You’ve shown strength, determination and agility on the bumpiest, pot holed roads known to man.
(Not a single popped tyre, which cannot be said for some of the teams with big 4x4 overlanders…
😏 just sayin)
Luck was on our side as 4 angels sent from planet earth, aka team Dromedaris drove passed by chance (to pick up their laundry from the last town 😂) and gave us a tow to the nearest garage.
The part we need to fix him up would take 1-2 weeks to deliver and that’s time we just don’t have..
Watch this weekend as we go car hunting to try and find something that will get us back on the road and across the finish line.. 🥺
Any guesses what we got?!
BUT that all aside, getting to self-drive safari in Africa has been on of the most amazing things we've ever done. Driving through national parks, seeing elephants walk across the road, zebras, giraffes! What a country...

Honestly, this is better made than most TV shows. Great filming, editing and story telling
I only discovered your channel about a month ago and all I can say is you both make me very happy when I watch your videos 🎉 All the positive vibes and laughter what is there not to love……awesome guys just awesome
Welcome aboard Marvin! Glad to have you mate ☺️
@marvininthemini you need to check out their Mongolian Rally and when they traveled India in the TukTuk. They are incredible! 😊
By far the best channel on UA-cam!
Been with these two wildly insane and beautiful humans for a minute and it makes NO sense how come they dont have a bigger following. Glad you found them! Everyone needs this medicine! 😂
Amazing couple and what an amazing watch, you both make me chuckle with your humour x love u guys
This is a fantastic series.
How this channel isn't 3 times bigger I dont know, you guys are brilliant and the filming is top notch.
You put a lot of much bigger travel vlog channels to shame!
You legend. Thank you 🙏🏼 ☺️
Hyenas lol. The wild dogs are highly endangered, so you were lucky to see them. Great to see you two in my neck of the woods. I love your channel, and it was fantastic to see your enthusiasm for the wildlife! So sorry about Gorgeous George. I can't wait for the next installment! So wonderful to see my fellow South Africans making us proud. And loadshedding...the less said about that, the better.
African wild dogs are lovely.
I thought the same thing. I'd prefer the wild dogs over the hyenas. Both are cool, but the rareness of the wild dogs is so extra cool.
Keep rocking life, Aimee and Craig. You're truly inspirational.
Haha. Seriously. They go "woooow, hyenas!! Oh no, wait, it's just a wild dog. Aw man", when they really should be utterly amazed. When you visit Botswana, chances are you will see hyena. Not many people get to see the wild dogs though.
We were in Kasane, the pinnacle of wildlife hotspots in Botswana (and of course, by that, in the world) when a large pack of wild dogs were roaming the area. At every checkpoint, gate, gas station, anywhere, everyone asked "did you see the wild dogs!?". And these are people who are very used to seeing wildlife.
I'm sure plenty of people will tell them how lucky they in fact were, so they will appreciate what they got to experience.
I came to say the same thing. I would be stoked to see the dogs!!!
I was also on my way to come and tell you that you are super lucky to have seen a wild dogs !!! Loved the episode Amy and Graig!
I just got a new book to read ,saw Kinging it and put it down immediately. PRIORITIES!!!❤
🤪🤪 legend!!
RIP George, you won't be missed. On a positive note, you did bring out the best in the best of the other rally participants. Showed us how selfless others can be in service to their fellow man and woman. And showed us, once again, how resilient Craig and Trav can be when faced with challenges that would drive most of us into a fetal position calling it quits. Love you guys. Fantastic adventure here for such a great cause.
You guys are the best ❤
Ohhh, thank you for once again doing something amazing for charity xx 😘
Amy, you have just come into your own this trip. Amazing seeing you driving and so relaxed spotting the animals. One of your best videos. And that you two have raised $16k of the total $26k the Putfoot has raised this year. You two are killers!
Wild dogs are super rare! You were so lucky to see them! Very jealous of your adventure. Definitely feeling inspired to sign up to next year’s rally…
Gift for all the good dog vibes these two have ❤😂
I just love Aimee’s happiness at seeing the wildlife!
Thanks you guys. RIP Gorgeous George, but your new set of wheels is very swanky! You really brighten up my day with your adventures 💓
It’s like a 5 start hotel. Why on earth didn’t we get it to start with 😆 thank you 😘
@kingingit Gorgeous George made you appreciate your new 5 star hotel even more!
If only we could all live like you - adventure, positivity, humor and determination! This trip is incredible and the story behind it even more so. Loved this episode and looking forward greatly to the next.
Your amazing people!❤ I wake up every Monday morning I'm Canada at 6am and watch your new video! And iam always so excited!! You two make my Monday a great Monday!❤🎉
I have been refreshing since 6pm UK time to watch part 2 of this as I loved part 1! Well done for doing something so incredible for charity! you guys rock!!!
6.30 *most Sundays 🤪🤪
Another great video. So happy you got to see some animals. You're joy in contaigous!
Hey guys. If you still need help in Namibia with George, please let me know. I may be able to help you out.
Also to see an African Wild Dog is WAYYY better than a hyena in my opinion. They’re actually an endangered species, and are like the African version of wolves. They travel in packs and are almost impossible to domesticate (hence their name The Wild Dog). So quite a privilege to see them.
Thanks so much for your kind offer. GG is being taken care of as we speak!il
And YES! We’ve been told that! Quite rare to see one on a short trip apparently 😁✌️
@@kingingit so happy to hear GG is getting some tlc.
My folks have a house in Langstrand, between Walvis Bay and Swakopmund, so if you need a place to stay when/if you go back for GG let me know.
I’m excited for his glorious come back. Good luck with the rest of your journey. Oh and don’t even get me started on the price of data and load-shedding.
TIA
Wow, you guys were so lucky to see the wild dogs!!! They are so rare! 🍀🍀🍀
So happy when they got the Nissan woop woop 🎉🎉🎊🎊 I'm so glad it all turn well and I think the universe made you guys miss those spots so you come back next year 😋 in a better car 😉
I think so too!! Plus.. Kruger national park is calling us! 🦁
What I like most about you two is 1) the way you bring out the best in everyone! 2) how silly you are! thank you! rock on!
Credit to you, professionalism. Once that car had broken down I would have broken down shortly after 😆
George gave his life for the shoe! Thank you George for your service👍🏻
Beautiful scenery and animals! Thanks for sharing😊
It's like out of this world!! Thank you for taking us on this amazing adventure! Those smiles on your faces 😍❤ Enjoy the next part of your journey!
Literally blown away!!! What an episode. Totally inspired to visit Africa now. You guys are so resilient, can’t believe what you’ve endured to get this far. Just wonderful seeing your joy at the animals and glad you guys are safe in a chunky vehicle now….. RIP George. Can’t wait for the next episode xx
You'll never regret going to that part of Africa ,I spent 3 months driving across southern Africa ,the most amazing experience of my life.
What an amazing adventure with spectacular scenery. Thanks for taken me on this journey with you, through all the bumps & hurdles. You made it 😊
I am loving this series! RIP George. I am happy you are in a more secure vehicle.
Wow, what great content you post, Aimee and Craig! I am glad you're sharing all of this. Gorgeous George was awesome, but what an upgrade you have!
It just gets better and better! The animals, the scenery, the awesome people... what a fantastic adventure! And while I can appreciate your sentiments toward Gorgeous George, Aimee, I have to agree with Craig... George is dead to me too!!
Couldn’t click fast enough so invested in Team Kinging-it GG and what vehicle comes next ……..how gorgeous would George look alongside Custard or towed by her for using to nip into town when you travel. Please ship him home. Love you guys stay safe x
Watch this space 🤪
Aww great vlog guys, laughed so much when Amy says Get the book’ and laughing when they see animals. And glad you found a rental that is reliable and you get to enjoy the rally, and the sights.👍
RIP Gorgeous George but so glad you were finally able to get another vehicle to carry on the rally! Loved all the animals you encountered! Thanks for sharing! ❤❤❤
Hope you got pics of the wild African dogs. They are very rare and endangered. Sweet trip!
As a friend I can say this, isn’t weird how Aimee is getting prettier as the time passes, I love you guys, you know that!
Nice car upgrade. A proper gas tank now. Poor curious George. RIP.
Thanks for showing us some animals.
I love Elephants.
You all were really lucky to have seen the Wild Dogs. They are some of the most impressive hunters in the bush and a true find. Love watching the videos!
Hilarious ,Sir David Attenborough has nothing on you guys I've been crying laughing 😂😂❤❤
😆😆 haha thanks Cath!
So happy you retired GG! That was horrible watching you two in that rough buggy! This is another great adventure, hard to say my favorite bc I love all you have done but definitely more than I imagined! And Aimee you are so fun! you are so excited and enthusiastic over everything! Craig your personality and jokes just keep Aimee going! You are a great team! Also, so funny there was no sign off at the end!
Bloody brilliant.... Was just like watching a top notch wildlife TV... program,what made it even more amazing is the banter and fun you share with us ... Looking forward to seeing next episode xxxx
Aww. Rest in peace, Gorgeous George. I know Aimee will come back for you! ❤Wow! What an amazing trip and adventure! To see all sorts of wild animals, just hanging out and living their lives in their natural habitats...I can't process it somehow. Such a beautiful thing to see. 🥰 I can't wait to see what you name your vehicle! It is definitely a vehicle worthy of the Put Foot Rally!
The couple that just keeps on getting through. you are amazing at adversity.
You're going great, growing community no matter where you go, and still on the road! Congratulations for meeting every challenge and finding all the great stuff!
You guys make my early Monday mornings. Its 5.40am and not quite dawn here in Western Australia, but it doesnt matter, this morning Im in Africa watching 2 of my favourite people having a blast (and 50 disasters every episode) while doing good things for other people......its a great way to start the week.
I dont know if you quite understand the gift you give to people like me. Im 55 but Im in advanced heart failure. I cant travel....anywhere really. I struggle with a car trip half an hour down the road and the last time I got on a plane to visit rellies a couple of states away, I picked up a virus on the plane and got sick for 6 weeks.......I go nowhere, seldom even leave the house, but each week you pick me up and take me along on your adventures and I get to see and experience things I wouldnt otherwise see and experience. I am extremely grateful for the work of you, Eamon and Bec, Flying the Nest, Kara and Nate and a host of other travel UA-camrs who give us shut ins the opportunity to experience the world through your camera lenses.
What an amazing gift.. this is a fantastic cause... Congrats on surviving this journey
Thanks for the laughs and for showing everyone how the roll with the punches. 😊 I love Sunday, thanks to both of you.
I love your positivity ❤❤ Thank you so much for doing youtube and sharing your amazing life
Love living vicariously through you guys every Sunday. I can't wait for part 3!
Thank you for using your platform to help others. It’s a lot of coordination, getting sponsors, volunteers etc. amazing work you have done. We need more like UA-camrs like you. Keep going and show us more your crazy and fun adventures ❤❤❤
Zebras and giraffes and elephants, oh my! Sorry about George (may he rest in peace) but glad to see you rallied, assisted by the kindness of strangers. You are, as they say, legends. Godspeed!
Still no idea why this channel is not over 1M or more. Love it! Of and knew George was snide 😅
🥹😘
The African wild dogs!!! What a treat! They’re endangered and not many left. Seems like Botswana is doing a good job with conservation 👏🏻
You 2 are adorable and I just love you guys. Watching you 2 bumble around on your cool adventures... just a nice way to start my week 🥰
LOVE this! Wild dogs are extremely rare to see from what I understand, so your lucky to have seen them.
When I build my overlanding vehicle I am putting Africa on the itinerary. I love animals and the wildlife there is amazing! I am glad your car troubles are behind you.
Aimee being upset and Craig just over George is hilarious, hahaha IM glad everything turned out in the end and you met some awesome helpful people
I love you guys. And you deserve so many more followers! Your Chanel is one of the high lights of my week.
Aww You're the best! Thank you 🥹🩷
Glad you got a reliable car…I needed you to be safe…sooo happy your having fun seeing the animals…
OMG this is just a dream trip, I started out a little panicked about your safety lol. but, convinced myself you were OK cuz you uploaded the video.
I am living for this series, love it so much. I’ve been to Kenya and did the Tsavo West and Amboseli safari which was incredible - what we found so funny afterwards was how complacent we were about seeing elephants, giraffes and zebra. We were so lucky to see a leopard and lions too - oh and hippo and crocodiles….and hyena 😂😂😂😂😂 Can’t wait for next week! 😊
Your positivity is powerful! ❤
I'm with Aimee! You HAVE to take George back to the UK and fix him up. Just think what a blast it would be to drive him around the UK and Europe!!!
I’m so happy to see you guys! I think you should pour gravy all over George and leave him in the Desert.
This is so much fun, thank you for taking us along on this crazy journey!
Wow - what a fabulous video and while it was sad Gorgeous George didn’t make it , love you’re new vehicle. All those animals, so exciting and as always lots of laughs along the way . ❤
I'm close to an anxiety attack and that's me just sitting here in my living room being a bit empathic .Hope you two are proud of your bravery .
Aimee and Craig, I’m so sorry that Gorgeous George didn’t make it😔 This adventure is certainly epic ! I can’t wait until next week’s episode! Take care ❤️❤️
I absolutely love this channel this is the first time ive seen anything like the Put foot rally been done its such a good idea. Those South Africans are so helpful as well, its all turning out smoothly after all. Great Channel @Kinging- it keep up the amazing work
Yes yes YES!!!!!!! I am so excited!!! You both are incredible humans!!!!!!
Aimee hyperventilating when she spots a giraffe 😂 I would have too! 😂 life goal to see a giraffe myself, so amazing!
Omg i loved this weeks video those beautiful animals 😍 Amiee i actually adore you, you are a breath of fresh air who would make the sun smile and craig you crack me up with your wit i love it!!
Actually love the new vehicle.. I laughed so hard at the "not Craig" part 😅 that was Craig after his first drive in gorgeous George though 😂😂
My hubby and are holding ourselves to a new standard. We want to be more positive and humorous with each other…and you…lucky you are our new role-models. So when we become negative…we ask each other “Are you kinging it?!”
African wild dogs are very endangered and more rare to see. Hyena you can see often from the trips I have been on to various countries in Africa. Great tour and content - Thanks for sharing!
As an ex South African, it was fantastic to see the animals, especially the Elephants. I am originally from Port Elizabeth that has the fantastic Addo Elephant Park 1 hour from 'home'. We ensure it is on our itinerary everytime we visit our family and friends.
What an incredible experience! Thank you for sharing it with us!
For the next rally, get yourselves a vehicle that isn't having a near-death experience! 🤭💛
Would prob be a bit boring then though wouldn’t it 🤣
I’m joking. We’re never getting a crappy car again 😆 our backs will never forgive us.
Got to have been one of the best videos ever. Thank you
Best series yet, thanks so much for taking us all along
Oh. You make me smile so much! ❤❤ Such an amazing adventure I get to witness you having. You two are truly fabulous!
I was so sad to hear about George but so happy you are still on the road. 👏👏👏 This is so exciting. 🎉❤
George is dead to me too! So glad you guys were able to keep going and in such style too. You're so lucky to get to see those amazing animals up close. Stay safe and keep having a blast.
You're actually so lucky to get to see wild dogs! Rarer than hyenas ❤
The go to saying for this channel is "fingers 🤞 ". About sums up every video. Love you guys.
An amazing safari in the delta. Them wild dogs are rarer by 100 fold than the hyena. Super spot. Well done
Yahoo! The show must go on. Poor George. This new vehicle is puuuurrrrfect! I'm looking forward to watching the 3rd part. I hope you's see some lions.
Honeymooned in Namibia in 2017. Love seeing the familiar sights again, especially Etosha and the watering holes! 💚
OMG, you two are so cute and adorable. I love watching all your adventures. And Trev, you are an amazing and strong woman, don’t let anything hold you back 👍🏻
Hyena's 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Love you guys, and consider yourselves very fortunate to have seen the dogs. My favorite animal
Poor George made it quite a ways before giving out. Don’t forget to take George back home with you. You 2 are so amazing! thanks for the hard work & time you give to charity!❤
There’s something special about you and your channel, makes me smile. If you could bottle it then people would be cured of all sorts of problems.
Poor George, hopefully it won't be too expensive to get him fixed, omg guys... all the animals... I am so jealous. You two rock!!!
I’m so happy you are safe …. And you found a new chariot…that will take you over the finishing line…. Hope you innards are getting better
I'm so glad you finally got a real vehicle! I've been so scared that you would be crushed in Gorgeous George by an elephant or something. I hope if you do another rally like this, you will start out with a proper vehicle so you can enjoy the entire thing. I love watching everything you do, Craig and Aimee, but you don't have to risk your lives for views. We will watch you no matter what. ❤❤❤
So Amazing!!! Thank you so much 🦒🐘🦓🌞😘😘🤗🤗 I felt so wonderful , I watched it twice!! 💛
You guys are the best. I love watching your videos my dream is to one day do missionary work in Africa. Now that I am 68 years old I don’t know if that will happen but never give up on your dreams.❤❤❤
Wanted to send you guys some coffees - can you please set up that option - thank you for the fun!!
Why do I shed happy tears every time I watch you guys. The excitement of seeing the animals got me this week 😂
I loved seeing y’all get back on the road but That blonde wig at the national park is 10/10 omg I’m obsessed
I just love you guys, you turn lemons into lemonade. Awesome work!
I was so hoping you would get to Cape Cross and maybe see the amazing team from Ocean Conservation Namibia rescuing entangled seals from ocean trash. As you would say, they are legends! Enjoying watching your adventures!
Wild dogs are rarer to see than hyaenas ! So glad you managed to keep going.
I don't remember who said it but it went something like "an air mattress is great for when you want to sleep on the ground, but not right way". Keep Kining-it!
Wow the animals incredible!! So happy you found a vehicle! RIP George!!
