I am 5.26 into this video and I already know it’s one of the best I’ve ever watched on UA-cam, so excited for this
You walk amongst the greatest of men.
A great man is not measured by wealth or power but by how he helps others achieve great thing's through the pain of his own body. Many would never see these wonderful places, but through you're own pain, you bring these great places to the homes of many people.
😀👍
Fuck yeah Tony! Glad you liked this one mate!
Absolutely loved this one mate 😃👍
Never a truer word said.
Thanks. That is really ancient land you're traveling through. Quite a gift.
Showing Tasmanias' wild beauty, one video at a time. Thanks, Rob, for taking us along on another truly epic adventure!!!
Dombrovski would have loved this Rob, superb camera work. Its not easy to capture the spirit of Tassie nor to have enough spirit to seek it. Breathtaking.
This means a lot mate thank you. Cant wait to bring Dombrovski to the channel!
Just found your channel. Im in the UK and always wondered what Tassie was like . Now I know so thanks for a brilliant vid Rob
Summer in Tas .is so beautiful.
Absolutely beautiful Rob you are doing a great service for Tasmania, I truly hope someday the Tasmanian Government will recognize you for your service. Thank you
Mate, bloody awesome. You just showed me a wonderland of incredible beauty. I thought at my age I could not achieve what you have, however I felt like I was there too. Thank you so much for everything you post. What a wonderful life experience to share.
thank you for cleaning the hut before you left it just sucks when you turn up to a hut and the Adem family has just left or might still be there
You're even better at creating gems than you are at finding them. Thank you for assembling this beautiful beast of a video.
Thank you so much homie! A lot of effort went into this one, got plenty more big trips lined up for you to enjoy coming soon 😍😍
Bloody hell! What can be achieved in a day? You are a great example of what can be done if you get off your ass and do it. Fantastic footage. Beautiful edited. You did paradise justice. On more than one occasion the look on your face, drifting in silence amongst the dinosaurs, said it all! Cheers to those that had the foresight to fight for it!
Loving watching these with my 5 year old son. Keep the adventure coming. My young fella says thanks 👍🏼
Wow this was 2 years ago, thank you for taking me on your journey loved every minute with you. What a life experience, just found your channel im going to binge watch them all now 😊
You are an absolute weapon! No doubts. I've just discovered your channel. May the binge begin. ✌🙏
Let's get him to follow Alexander Pearce's trip through the Jane, Franklin and Gordon

Bloody brilliant adventure. You have done more in your short life than many do in 100 years. Thanks for sharing and allowing us all to come with you. Glad this area was preserved. Can't imagine why people would consider destroying it for short term profit.
I'm pretty privileged to have seen what I have in the short 3 years I have been hiking ect. I certainly don't take it for granted!
I’ve just found and subscribed to your channel after binge watching many,many episodes.
Absolutely amazing footage,stories and respect for our environment.
You inspire me to explore my own land .
Much love and honor and respect! Thanks so much!
Well made, good music,
great scenery and adventure,
in Western Tasmania
What a trip!
Hi Rob, l have only now been introduced to you and your video trips via my good friends in south Tassy. I live in Central Victoria on a 56 acre registered Sanctuary. I purchased this land to give back, protect and expand the extraordinary ammount of endemic flora and fauna on this connected corridor.
I purchased Olegus book during the Gordon below Franklin protests when visiting Tasmania to assist ground zero protests . I was 21. Ever since l have been in love with Tasmanias wilderness experiencing rivers, landscapes and beaches as l am a part time Aboriginal anthropologist. Your shared experiences are inspirational and l thank you very much for the detail and time allowed in your videos to simply absorb at length mother nature at her natural and rare best.
The "ship Song" and your camera work gave me goose bumps...absolutely brilliant...thank you Rob.
Thanks micheal appreciate you commenting on the older vids too!
An absolute wonder of a film - great videography. I have walked and sailed the southwest over the past 45 years and it is a thrill every time
Cheers!
Thanks Stephen!
Rob Parsons, you are truly a great Aussie Explorer. Absolutely awesome, take a bow!
You are far too kind!
Truely spectacular! You certainly know how to capture the awesome beauty that Tassie is. There's no where quite like it. Well done
Many thanks Indie Cheers!
What a beautiful island you live on . Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
This one has to be one of your best Rob. Such a journey. Love the quiet on the river with the rush of the rapids interspersed throughout. Great vid.
I spent all night watching your adventures, it's simply breathtaking. I have dreamt for almost a decade to explore Tassie's wilderness, rivers and mountains. Maybe one day I will be able to afford it. Greetings from a fellow Lissie fan from Bulgaria! I can't wait to see the rest of your films!
That was an epic trip and the landscape is gorgeous. I’m in the U.S. and thanks to your videos, visiting Tasmania is now on my bucket list! You are a weapon brother! Keep at it, and thanks for taking us along.
So pristine. Beautiful.
Amazing Scenery.....Beautiful......Love it 🤠.....Very Nice Music TOO......Masterpiece!!!!!
Feb 5, 2022 I tumble here by accident.....I enjoy the music even more "Go Your Own Way".....Yeah Rob!!! Peace from Pflugerville, TX USA.
so glad to hear mate cheers!
Fantastic Rob, safely home to a soft bed. Thanks for bringing my favourite place on earth into my lounge room.
You have always been able to pick a superb soundtrack to back your visuals, beautiful work 🌿
Thanks Erin 😃
Truly inspiring mate. Having recently discovered your page, I have watched a number of your videos over the past week - and thoroughly enjoyed every minute. Hope to cross paths with you someday. Cheers
So good mate bring on the next mission
Thanks Robb for lett8ing me come along on your journey, the scenery blew me away, we live in such a beautiful place, my eyes were just soaking in natures beauty, WOW WOW thanks so much for sharing
This journey was extremely well done, photography most enjoyable and your research prior to expedition so informative, selection of music a treat also. Too many credits from this "old dog", that may give you a swelled head. Keep up the good work ,just lovin' it
hehe 'this old dog'... MATE, so happy you enjoyed it! Much love to Esperance from the Mother state! XX
Your videos are just amazingly beautiful. They show how gorgeous the Tasmanian wilderness is.
Appreciate that kerry thanks
Fantastic rob I visited the Gordon as a younger man and it is truly in my top five parts of Australia hands down. Thanks for showing us an amazing part of the world
Let's get him to follow Alexander Pearce's trip through the Jane, Franklin and Gordon

Thanks Rob as I watch all Ur stuff this one was special. As a Victorian and a tree lover in the way going out in nature to just sit in the wilderness is a very special thing. The Swan pine is such a majestic tree and even after a few visits down that way I have yet to be privileged enough to gaze upon them as u did here. Thanks for the inspiration I need to get my ass down their
Thank you Rob, magnificent effort dedicated to magnificent land.
😃
What a world we live in aye, On one hand you have a bloke who can plan out a trip like this with all the equipment and attention to detail that is required and then on the other hand we have the people who will look at the one hour plus length and keep scrolling because they cant muster the attention span. Love your work mate....keep em coming.
This is just totally amazing.. I am enjoying every minute of this journey with you & it’s breathtakingly beautiful.
You capture the beauty of our amazing state so very well & im hooked on your adventures.. Thankyou
Thanks for this Rob
It brought back some old memories.
We live in a topsy turvy world that this masterpiece only gets 25k views
Three things really stand out
That you could get such quality footage in that difficult country.
That you could bushwhack in from the Gordon lake through that terrain.
That you managed it alone.
Class act
Some great research to back it all up as well
appreciate that mate cheers
That place is stunning! I won't be traveling abroad again, but at least I got to see what you saw. Thanks for that.
Dnt know how I missed this one ..your one fortunate guy Rob Parsons, brilliant as always and thanks for taking me there..
This was profound for me to watch, thank you, so many beautiful metaphors for life and how nature reflects it back to us, Thank you, deep gratitude for your passion.
Glad you enjoyed it Sage thanks!
Amazing scenery thank you for taking me and the rest of us on your journey.
Wow Rob you've done it again
One of the true 21st century explorers mate. Well done
Pleasure to watch your work Bud
Cheers Bruce
Great Video Rob. It's unusual for me to watch a whole video but the camera work and narrative made me feel like I was on the adventure as well.
Thank you chris!
An amazing trip and epic songs to match it! Well done!
fabulous, thank you so much. We have learned to love Tasmania through your eyes and skills, this video really knocks the ball right out of the park. Stunning formations, critters and ever expanding scenery. Wow, Nature is perfect. Go Gold Boy, good luck with all your adventures. Live long and prosper :D
Thanks 🙏 😃
Say Rob beautiful their again. Seems like that T.V. was during one of my era, Really B & W was what we had. Now it's on your phone.
Another fantastic journey in the Tassie wilderness . Yes we all appreciate exploring Tasmania through your eyes Rob, something I wish I could do but is physically impossible for me. Awesome photography and the tunes you picked throughout the video were ideal . Well done - looking forward to the next one. Take care. 💖
Awesome trip, great finish
Thanks Kathaleen 😊
Absolutely amazing. Tassie is just so bloody beautiful- you do a phenomenal job
Dude
You are an epiiiiiic human being…thankyou so much for the inspiration…as you are truly inspirational 🙏🏽✌🏽❤️
I’ve just watched this for the second time. I love your photography and ability to record an adventure. It makes my day and fuels my desire (as an older walker) to experience more of Tasmanian wilderness. Olegas Truchanas would be well pleased with your work.
Well done Rob..Olegas would be proud man
Thanks Graham!
Another Captivating Experience Rob...Around every turn and bend there's a new adventure...Always a Hidden Story..So much More Beautiful, Silent Mystery. Thankyou 👍❤
Just watched again. Thanks. Stirs my spirit.
Love that you came back to watch it, means a lot !
Very very good, I enjoyed this video more than I thought I would and I finally know what huon pine looks like as a bonus!
Great video and thank you.
So impressed.
What a genuine adventure.
You have far bigger balls than me mate.
I was relieved when you put on a life jacket.
Can’t wait for your next one.
Thanks for all the effort. Perfect editing and shooting.
Thanks Brett! Yea I thought I better take one this time.
Geez Rob. Outstanding. You are crazy...but this is outstanding...Glad to see you wearing a PFD. Was worried at the start.
Wow love your video's.But this time you've really hit it out of the park. Thanks so much for sharing this adventure Rob.
Thanks Tim!
Thanks for creating/sharing this glimpse into the beauty that is Tas. I now wish I'd slept in that nice hut at Sir John Falls rather than outside in the rain a couple of times.
Truly inspirational Rob. I hope you never lose your free spirit. Thanks for sharing your adventures.

Amazing adventure, some of the best on UA-cam!
Sadly i had just left tassie for the mainland just prior to lake pedder blowing up, but i did spend 3 days up there camping on the beach and bush walking before i left. I remember many trips as a kid up through the high country and power stations.
(They would make a good subject matter for a vid) Poatena was one of my favourites, and in fact family friends bought it after it closed.
I was seven when the fires went through the west coast in 67. Looking back i believe it was due to early weather modification experiments, and for all we know linked in some way to lake pedder much like martin bryant was central to our consfication of guns.
We lived near the last town before the hellyer, yolla and were on our way down the murchison to hobart to visit relatives.
I remember coming into a huge cutting where possibly 30-50 cars had gathered to shelter, with 4 or 5 fire trucks spraying us down with water. I clearly remember lifting my head from under the blancket just when the fire jumped the cutting. The roaring heatwave, smoke and debri flying every where was truly frightening, but for the fire trucks spraying us i was sure we would go up in smoke. When it passed and roared down the valley, the erie smokey quietness was astoundingly sinister. I think we got a very lucky break that day.
Incredible video!! Thank you for sharing your experiences with everyone. The world is really an amazing place.
I will never be able to do that. So thankyou for sharing. Wilderness is so wonderful and exciting and amazing. Esp in Oz. Awesome🌅🌿
WOW..........just WOW. Love your work Rob.
Absolutely loved this mate, you've given me the motivation to consider something similar. Maybe even that same route.
That was quiet a ride Rob. Thank you for inviting us all along in this incredible part of the world.
The highlight for me in this video was from 29 minutes to 31 minutes , just to hear the birds and the water , I can take that all day. I am looking forward for your next video , well done ,cheers
Great adventure Rob, you did well to search and find that cave! Awesome video. Some much history!
Appreciate it lad, glad you enjoyed it!
If you Come to Norway i Will show you around, if you show me around this river when I Come There! I just love rivers and this looks so crazy
THAT WAS EPIC! you are a weapon haha
Hats off to you doing that solo and documenting it so well while navigating a river you’ve never been down. Great job 👏🏼
Let's get him to follow Alexander Pearce's trip through the Jane, Franklin and Gordon
ua-cam.com/video/nmSTv-Gi7RU/v-deo.html
Huge effort. I’m sold on doing this mission now.
Awesome mate you won't regret it!
You're a legend I've injoyed every trip you have made👍
You sir are an absolute modern day pioneer!!
Thanks for taking us along for the ride !!
Cheers
Thanks Rob another awesome video of an epic adventure in a place not many get to see
Really makes you think how insignificant and fleeting our lives are, when you look at the towering majesty of those ancient beings and that scenery. It really is an amazing place Tasmania. Thank you for taking us along on your journey.
Once again you have excelled in delivering a brilliant film.
Your an inspiration, Can't wait to get back to Tassie and explore some more. Cheers Mr P 🙂
Absolutely stunning! 🖤
Thanks Joe!
Rob, that was sensational. I've got some catching up to do with your many stories, but for me this was the best to date. You totally connect with this country and take me along, thankyou.
Beautiful scent all the rock cliffs!
epic trip, simply amazing, thanks for sharing and well done
I’m 73 years young.....I’m booking my ticket, I have friends in Tazmania...what a place
do it!
Wow.. f**king amazing! Epic videography man! What a stunning trip. Legend! 👍
Thank you!
You are a weapon Rob, fascinating and thoroughly enjoyable as usual, great camera work as well.
I love your work and the effort you put into sharing this amazing unseen landscape with us. However, listen the music absolutely killed this one for me. I go out to the 'back of beyond' to escape into nature - and that encompasses all that it has to offer including the sounds of footsteps, water, insects, birds. You guys have such great birdlife and it is a treat. I would much rather listen to that any day. If I want to listen to great music, I can do that anywhere. Such a shame.
fair point!
