    Release the physics section you coward. All 7 takes. In all seriousness, thank you for having me on the channel! Can't wait for the next one
  • I think this video is great for an up and coming channel like yours! A good variety of content is in the video and you have some creative ideas. A few tips: 1. Don’t play with the flow of the video as much (e.g. cutting away to voiceovers as much) 2. To elevate engagement maybe introduce some side tasks that you have to complete so the main task isn’t as easy (e.g. wear silly items for every 500m or something) 3. Maybe mention the reason of you doing this nearer the start, as attention spans of people on social media aren’t as long (this will increase engagement and give a motive earlier on) With this taken onboard, I think your channel has high potential, and is definitely one to watch. Also good luck on your Everest climb!

  • Awww, the race isn't fair, you've only got little legs (she says, while being shorter than you) (only just -pout-) The Canary Wharf mega-escalator is great though (the dramatic shot at the end, followed by you staggering off camera like you were going to pass out (my job) was funny), it feels almost like flying
