    Mediocre Amateurs Drinking Game (It had to be done.):
    -Take 3 drinks if the video begins with a helicopter ride.
    Take a drink every time:
    -Blake is mentioned but not actually present in the video.
    -Aaron eats a salted nut roll.
    -Someone makes a joke about perishing. Take two drinks if the phrase “Naked bloated corpse” is mentioned.
    -Someone has an existential crisis about why they participate.
    -Someone laments about the planned milage being incorrect
    -The word “Implode(d)” is used.
    -Matt talks about bears.
    -Blake or Christof get left behind.
    -Blake feels ill.
    -Danny’s hatred of cold water is mentioned.
    -Christof subtly flexes about being in some other country just hours before.
    -Darkness sets in.
    -Someone eats or mentions a Little Debbie product.
    Finish your drink if:
    -Danny pukes (once per episode).
    (All in good fun. Love y'all's videos! Feel free to add to the list).

    I think the most under appreciated part of your channel is the b-roll shots. These all take SO much time to shoot and are used for under 2 seconds in most cases. That lake shot at 2:45 is flat out amazing, keep crushing it you are a huge inspiration.
