- India is not for beginners! Today definitely was one of my hardest, for sure! I lost a good drone (rip buddy), a freaking bee stung me right in the face and monkeys stole my Fanta!! BUT, the ride was fantastic! National parks, waterfalls and great roads with awesome views! Gotta LOVE South India, I know I do!

Hey Marc! Mate, stumbled upon your channel and gotta say, your editing game is epic! But reckon we could take it up a notch together. I've dabbled in video editing and keen to bring some fresh vibes to your content. What do ya reckon? Let's chat! 🎥✨
Visit my home when u come to bangalore
24:34 to 25:50 Bro is still cherishing the moments he had with the drone instead of being sad ... Mad respect for your positivity 🫡🫡🙇🙇🙇
24:39 your drone is still fixable take it to nearby dji service center
The thing you saw at @14:43 is the largest wild bovine. called Gaur or Indian bison. I envy their muscles.
Only males are muscular with proper cuts and abs🤣
15:00 bro the sign board is hilarious 🤣😂
15:00 "if survived you will be prosecuted" 🤣
You really are wise owl
😂
Sigma sign board 😂
😂😂damnn
🤣😂😂😂
The best part I found so far about your vlogs is that you are not at all judgmental just like other westners who come to India enjoy, have fun then comment bad things and be rude and judgmental by comparing India with other western countries. Seems like you are having genuine fun and a good experience.. Cheers ✌💯
Love India! Been here the longest I have ever traveled anywhere 🤩🙌🏼
@@MarcTravels But watch out! The only tiny snag is if you linger around here too long, you might just find yourself becoming Indian 😛
Of course, why would be alienate Indian subscribers...there's 1..4 billion of you!
Unless you've already thrown the drone out, it's repairable. I crashed mine in to my mates crash helmet filming them, the gimbal broke. I got a new gimbal from Ali Express and fitted it. Took me about an hour and I was back up and flying again.
I gave it to that dude at end;) he was so happy about it
@MarcTravels and that's why I should always leave my comments to the end of the video 🤣loving the content buddy. Keep it coming. Hopefully at some point you'll be a guest speaker at Adventure Bike Rider Festival here in the UK....how to do it wouthout an adventure bike 😁
@@RevZolutionno you wouldn’t see it in the video;) anyway, I don’t think I will be invited for stuff like that…I’m not a real adventurer and not on a real motorcycle 🤪
@@MarcTravels you are for sure one of if not even the first people on earth, doing such a long travel on an electric bike... if that doesn't turn you into an adventurer... then the entry on adventurers in encyclopedias urgently needs to be revised! ;)
When you come to Pune in Maharashtra, I will meet you.
Rough day Marcus but love your attitude and optimism! Hang in there and tomorrow will be better. Let's do this!
Let’s do this 💪🏼
❤❤
2:49 That kid's asking what kind of costume is this 😂
In Thrissur slang... 😂😂
Really 😂😂 wow
Kid’s thinking why Marc is dressed up for Halloween in scorching heat
😂😂
X suit😂
14:52 damn, that was an Indian Gaur, they are the biggest bovine in the whole world. you are getting the best of India all the time, I have seen them only once in my entire life. They are rarer to spot than an elephant or lions in the wild. You really have a wild connection and a good eye to spot wild animals. You spotted elephant herd twice, a golden jackal and now a Gaur, these kind of things tend to happen during specific phases of life...these are universes gifts to show you are doing the right thing. But, these kind of things always happen in conjunction with some sort of damage. Universe Giveth, Universe Taketh, some sort of balance.. I guess.
we are blessed with one of the best eco systems in the western ghat.. the kerala-karnataka-tamilnadu border is heaven for wild life enthusiasts and watchers. I think Marc @marctravels either plans the route very well or is very much lucky enough to get through the right route . The early morning/late afternoon hours should give much better sightings
In western Ghats ,They are very very common .. Come to kodaikanal or ooty side . Betterto say palani and nilgiri hills.. Theyr more like cats and dogs ..
That was an intense day! Sorry for the drone and the bee sting. I'm happy that you had such a fantastic road, though! I hope you are able to workaround the height restriction for the Mini 2. Your drone footage is always a highlight of your footage.
Ride safe.
Ride smart.
Have fun!
As a biker myself you are living the dream Marc ! safe travel god speed
Bro goes 80 in a 30 , he is not safeee, 27:15
@@ManasChachra Relax he knows his shiz.
Thank you for visiting Kerala. Hope you had a wonderful time. If there was any negative experience, we apologize. Please tell your friends to visit Kerala. God Bless for your onward travel to NZ. BTW you will find a lof of Keralites in NZ. Thanks again.
Binging on your journey from Pakistan for a while now. Just would like to say that apart from your journey which is epic, your video production is top notch, the preparations, continuity between the shots and finally the background audio which raises and falls with the mood and also abruptly cuts with the video. Great stuff... Wishing safe and happy travels...
Awww thanks mate! Appreciate it ❤️
Why do you have an Indian name and profile picture while being a Pakistani? Impersonating Indians on YT comments?
Really love your content. Keep up the good work :)
8:46 this place is famous for notorious crocodile. Lucky that you got saved.
8:13 great shot man👍🏼
There is something very positive about riding a country like India and exploring the places and people. No other experience is greater and original than this. Wow I am really proud of you brother.
I love India 🇮🇳
hey,, This is Uma from India, Bangalore. I have been watching your videos for quite sometime. I really enjoy them. Keep rocking.❤
looking forward to more such content, wish you great luck marc
It's Sad to see the drone die! I hope you have fun with the process of buying a new one! The excitement of getting a new toy is always great
Everyday can't be smooth. Hardships are must. So sit back, relax and enjoy riding the next day again.
Good luck marc!!
Exciting ride today Marcus! A few annoying issues but you sorted then very nicely! Ride On! 😋😋
Great video.
Great roads.
Great scenery.
BTW, the DSRX has extra plastic skirts on either side of the 25mm belt and the rear sprocket has holes to eject rubbish that might get in there.
Another amazing vlog, totally appreciate the effort it takes to keep going especially when the day has a few extra challenges thrown in as well!
Love how the channel has grown, it is a testament to the quality and effort of your video content. Well done Sir 🤙🏻
Thank you as always and keep safe 🫡
Chin up mate, in a journey like this, there will always be good and bad days. Lovely to see you are optimistic and accepting the reality when it still hurts. All i know for sure is you will miss the drone up till you reach Bangalore, coz i know how beautiful the roads can be along the way if you take the route which i have in mind. Good luck mate, cheers.
Man that waterfall shot was AWESOME
Hi Mate!
Welcome to Tamilnadu!
Oh man! This was like a flashback! Went through the same roads last monsoon on my solo trip to Kerala.
Hey Marc weather is so hot in Tamilnadu recent days. Make sure to be hydrated and always keep up the postive vibes.
Wonderful video Marcus, pity about the drone and the bee sting. Oh well, the sun always shines after the rains they say..... TC
Would want to see you going Ladakh, North East & The Deserts of Gujarat and Rajasthan.
Its going to get hotter, also go north it will be cooler, but the rainy season will also start soon.Sorry about your drone. Great job and awesome ride.
nah north is not cool i mean if you are saying like Himalayas then yes but north is hotter than south in summers
north is nowhere cool, except himalayas
Wait! aren't the Himalayas in the north?
@sahithreddy4s4 r u kidding?? Northen part is way cooler than any part of India, why South Indians r getting offended by this statement its the truth even we from west also suffer due high temp .
@@noopur1505 I lived in north don't bull$hit if you are talking about winters then yes north is cooler but no nobody is talking about winters here are they? In summer north is way more extreme on an average than south
Good travel vlog and work Mark
Oh Marc such a hard day. You will have some of them but the amazing ones will out weigh the bad ❤
That water fall first sight was insane bro
And one thing you forgot to add
Highlight of upcoming video just like this drone fall in last video
Well keep content pushing we really like it❤❤😊
31:16 ya man...somedays just suck! But you're gonna be fine, I am pretty sure of that!
Oh bro that was awesome. If you come in December/ January the vibes are totally changed. Cool and foggy stunning views. I want to go there once more
Impeccable drone footage👍
Omg Marc...the waterfalls are incredible
Right?!
Sorry to see the drone die but glad that you were able to use for so long. Amazing optimism from Mark on this one that we all can learn from. We have to all Remember that each day will give us challenges and it is up to us how we will respond. Our response will have a direct correlation on our demeanor ot just for that day but could impact our future trajectory.
Hats of to ur Spirit man, even if ur day was not going well but u still enjoyed the good things 👍🏻
Always 😍
Great videos marc...never get disappointed dear..
Amazing as always Man❤❤❤
Show the drone to an electronics technician when you pass through any big city. In India there are lots of skilled people, they can repair almost anything and everything 😊. We usually don't dispose of things, we try to repair or salvage things
Geeez that a partially unfortunate day. Rest in pieces drone :( Hope your bee string went away quickly! I was on a little trip today as well :D Went to visit a motorcycle museum in Zschopau, Erzgebirge :D
Safe travels!
Hey Mark you should try riding yercaud. It's infamous for its winding roads and tough ones . You'll have a great time with especially the heat wave setting in it'd be good with the hill climate
We are with you marc...❤❤❤
Well Marc
You have come a long way since the Honda dominator 650
Well done
Its dry season, monsoons when they arrive, it be water everywhere, then dams be overflowing and waterfalls and rivers be majestic.
What a waterfall!!! Such beautyful natur!!! 😍🤗🍀🍀🍀
Come visit Kerala😊
It was too Hot this Year, some places it rained so got Relief from heat. Humidity is next level. Being from Delhi I can relate to your torment ! 😆😉
14:59 "if you survived you will be prosecuted"
Haha 😂
Hey Marc, you should visit The Nilgiris. Really fun place to ride, awesome viewpoints and chill climate.
Happy journey .... Bro ....u r most welcome in Incredible India ...
Thank you so much 😀
0:42 that is forest check point
Bad day 😔
But your channel is growing at a nice pace 🤘
love you from india
Hey marc. Good ride. Also would like to know about your gear. Cameras and everything. Cheers!❤️
Also there are alot of charging stations in Coimbatore, you might even find a shop in Gandhipuram , Coimbatore where you might be able to fix your drone
Wow, those water falls! Great find. You speeded up riding scenes are cool too. Do the insta 360’s fall off a lot? I think the way you use them on the chin mount and on the bike mount works well, are you dropping it when transferring from one to the other or are does the magnetic holder drop them? I think of purchasing myself.
The bee gave you an acid trip.. use a soap.. it's a basic compound..😅😂
I love these long vidoes with dinner ❤
Hi Mark.
.
It's nice to watch your road trip vlogs.
You never exaggerate things but show the reality.

🎉❤.
I'd suggest you to keep a pepper spray with you always. For safety.

Idiots are found everywhere.

Ans , , Happy journey.

Hope you're enjoying India tour.
❤
Amazing that you drove all the way from Germany, most of us only dream of a life that you are currently living. Lucky mate. Take care of yourself especially when you are driving from southern India to northern part of India, some people can be troublesome but when they see a westerner in trouble most of the fellow road users will stop to help you
Sad about the drone but as you said it’s given a huge amount of viewing pleasure to so many for a long time. Downside is those things are ridiculously expensive. Hope you find a solution.
Geoff in Tasmania.
So bloody expensive 🫣 cheers mate
Marc loved your videos. Its going to be really hard now to travel across India if you are in central India or south India because April May and June are peak heat waves months. Please go as up north as much as you can go to save yourself or northeast can be decent. Also if you know any Indian traveller he can guide you where to go at this time.
When going towards leh, go via rohtang pass, it requires a permit as only a few vehicles are allowed cause of eco sensitivity but do go via rohtang pass, skip the tunnel. Don’t miss it. It’s amazing. Nothing like it!
Hi buddy Rolley here watching from Australia just now . Clocked up some miles myself out here on the bike . Didn't see any charging stations out bush . Only miles of dead straight roads & scrub . Take care & send it with miles of smiles 😊 😊 .
Rolley 😊
Cheers mate 🤙🏼
Landscape is beautiful 😊
Marqee everbody has a bad day.... But mindset counts.... your drone retrival in wilderness was true show of yoyr grit.... that too alone.... Hope you get good company to chillout in bangalore....
I am just imagining the beauty of this place after it rains it will be full lush green than its currently in summer
More power to you ❤
If you were to come at the end of monsoon, you would have enjoyed the magnificent nature beauty…
At 34:07 he is trying to say one guy taking photos, etc will results in many and crowd is not good at that sharp turn.
Ah okay, understand 🤙🏼
you should come back to see the real beauty of this place in Manson (June).
Do consider Ooty, Kodaikanal, Hogganakkal, if you are spending more time in south and if you eventually go north again consider Leh, Spiti Valley, Harshil, etc crazy roads.
Wunderbar Vlog !!!!
Love you bro 💖💖 may u have a nice day ahead 😊😊
Love your videos. Been watching since iran. Please try to manage laddakh in your trip. You aint seen india until you have seen ladakh. Thats the missing part of this great tropical puzzle
If vlogging is an art, you are the best artist.....
Welcome to India ❤
Salute to the drone. ..thank you for your service 👍👍
19:46 cool transition effect........is it a bit long......oh😢
Respect for continuing the vlog after getting stung
The show must go on, always🙌🏼
I love your all vedio and I am from India ❤ love you bro🎉❤
Man how peaceful is it riding an electric motorcycle in a quiet national park? Not scaring any animals, just exploring nature. So cool!
Hot season❤perfect time for bike tour😂 please come in august-januvary❤❤
Hope to see you as a fellow foreign traveller in India! ❤
Sorry for your lost 😢
Love from kerala ❤
He has to leave every 3 months, so he went to the Maldives for a few days.
There was a video (or two) after his return to India that you missed, apparantly.
I love your driving skill
Hope your jacket is properly ventilated and you're taking regular breaks in the shade. The heat in South India hits different, in that, you won't feel it setting in and then suddenly, heat exhaustion... So ride safe brother..
Visit cherrapunjee. It will give you pleasant weather, bikers road from guwahati to shillong and hill views as it is also a hill station and its north east India where you will get a total different vibe of India
Hey Marc! I love the music you play! Can u tell me how I can get it? Thanks!
for heal for small to medium bee sting i used rust and water paste on the spot it helps for swelling thing
come to east and north east too u will be mesmerized. love from west Bengal ❤
The *overheated* drone motor(s) was probably due to lack of lubrication.
Get some thin machine oil, e.g. 3-In-One oil, and oil the motor shafts weekly,
letting the oil seep past the seals. WD-40 might do, but remember that a
major part is not oil but water-dispersant.
Awesome ride. Pls visit northeast India as well. You'll love it..💞🩷
