Hey guys, hope you enjoyed this one! Just to clear things up as to why Kendall hasn’t driven Vance - we don’t want her to learn on Vance because learning stick is hard enough as it is, let alone on a 40 year old car with a tricky gearbox, no power steering and the fact that it’s on the other side of the car and road than she’s used to. She will be learning on a friend’s car up in Exmouth soon so we’re ready for any emergency. Thanks so much for the support and for joining us on our journey! - Kendall and Glenn

Feel your pain - literally. Had to make the drive back to Carnarvon sporting a gnarly Red Bluff injury. Hospital was an adventure in itself but the quality of care was exceptional. Well done for keeping the spirits up and kicking on, takes more than that to decide to pack it in from such a beautiful place and the effort it takes to get in.

Don't stress about the driving, hindsight is 20/20. Looks like you'll come good and have a wild scar everyone is going to ask you about. Spend your free time healing thinking up good stories as to how you got it: knife fight in Alice, near miss with a croc in Darwin, headbutt from Tony Lockett one night at the pub, etc.

Ooh, Red Bluff turning to Red Bath? Get better soon 💪🏄‍♂️

G'day guys, glens injury is the product of what it is your doing. You have to be on guard and ready at any moment, Kendall in an emergency is NOT the time to learn stick. There has been plenty of opportunity for you to have a go along the way, . Yes its only a hole.THIS TIME I WANT TO SEE YOUR NEXT VIDEO OF YOU DRIVING GOT IT!!!!!! KEEP SMILING DAVI B

Glad it was the board and not Kendall upset about the coffee 😀 best wishes and hope you are back to chill and eating soon. I enjoy the vlogs and the laid back style of travelling

Glad that your recovering good. Nice shiner there. We always carry a satellite phone when travelling remote. Could be a good idea to invest in one. Or you can hire them. Gives you that extra peace of mind. Loving your videos and playing catch up to your current ones. Thank you for sharing. 😀

Your one tough dood Glenn, that was one hell of a gash, I am very impressed how you both handled it. You need to think about getting a safety device that sets off an emergency signal for help most camping shops sell them. Hope you are now doing well.... Both of you Keep Safe .

It's time to get in the mood for summertime with these inspiring summer vacation moments......thanks for sharinf!!!!!

OMG. This could have gone so much worse. Luckily Glenn is healing good and the scar will be a trophy during chats in the future😃 And for you Kendall, you have done an amazing job in keeping him relaxed. Good for you that you will get some driving lessons as well. Please stay safe because we love the travel vlogs. Greeting and healing😉 from the Netherlands 👍🏻

You handled this situation the best you could. In many cases it’s hard to even plan for emergency situations, especially when you’re in remote places. We can only learn from situations like this. Sharing this story on this platforms teaches others to create emergency plans and shows what can go wrong. Thank you for sharing and all the best with your recovery and future travels ❤️

Ooh not nice hope you feel better soon. Also guys good tip for the flies burn some dried coffee grounds in a dish they hate the smoke it also works for mosquitos and wasps you can dry out the coffee you’ve already used too just set light to it and let it smoke stay safe ❤️

Get well better soon Glenn, wishing you guys all the best!🤍☀️

Aahhhhhrrr Glenn!!!! What a flippen cut. That’s hectic 🏄🏻‍♂️ gnarly cut!! Hope you’re healing well & you’re both doing well! Epic video once again 👏🏽

So so glad to see Glenn is okay and on the mend! You guys are such troopers. Another wonderful video - thanks for sharing the journey with us!

Oh no, Glenn... you poor thing! Yikes... what happened in the water...! :( We all have experiences like this where we run into a situation where we "wish we had".... so don't feel bad, Kendall. However, now you both went through a scary enough situation that makes you prepared.. like you said.. and be equipped with an excellent safety plan :) Learning a standard (stick shift) is fun.. so have fun! First the van, then the wound.... no more bad luck for you. Sending prayers and hugs!! Western Australia IS gorgeous.. wow! Stay safe

That must have been such a stressful situation. Glad you're okay now Glenn! Hope you are having a nice relaxing time in Exmouth, take care guys xx

oh Glen I hope your injury is better -- it looked so painful - hope you feeling much better now x

Wow Glenn that was a close one mate,a blow like that could have knocked you unconscious in the surf so you were lucky to get in ok. A good reminder to people that the distances are so vast in Australia that you can find yourself a long way form help if you have a medical emergency. Hope your healing up ok Glenn and Kendall no more procrastination on learning the manual shift. 🧐

Awesome video. Thanks for the cell booster info the other day Glenn. Great to see the other side of adventure vanlife - it's not all roses, but you guys have great attitudes. Top channel, keep it up.

Ouchy ouch! On the scheme of things count yourself as a lucky fellow Glenn. A similar thing happened to a friend of mine, but three inches to the right and the board shattered his eye socket... many surgeries and a couple of decades on he still rides the surf whenever he can. Such is the passion.

that was a knarly bruise.. hope he's better... also obligatory the freaking Views... awesome video as always..

I was wondering why we never saw Kendall in the driver's seat. It's really not hard and im sure she'll ace it in a day or two. An important skill when your driving Australia, in emergency times like this.

I hope you two stay safe enjoy life really loving your blogs .

Glad you’re ok. Scary ... and beautiful... being that remote but part of being in WA. Sending healing vibes xx

Just thank God you are alive man, could hav been worse, take it easy for a while, just get well and enjoy resting, cheers rick, 🤕

Have a look at rescue swag. Get a plastic bottle or two or three. Cut the top 1/4 off. Turn upside down. Fill bottle water with vegemite. Fly trap.

Loving all your vids. I was over in oz 20 years ago and wish I’d stayed and done what your doing. You’ve got the balance just right. One day I will be back over with my boys so hopefully they will follow your idea for life.😍

Another story for the grandkids mate, you’re a tough bloke. Happy travels, with you in spirit all the way.

Well done on staying calm. You're not stupid for not knowing how to drive stick. We're human! You're human. This will make for a great story around a campfire for years to come! With video proof haha.

A Satellite phones a good Investment for WA, hope other touro's learn from this

Hope you're feeling better Glenn - sooo lucky it didn't get your eyeball!!

Hectic gash Glenn. Thats nuts. Hope it heals up quickly man. I guess part of your new emergency plan should be teaching Kendall how to drive stick, just incase anything else ever happens again. Get well soon Glenn ✌️

Oh no!! I'm hoping that Glenn is healing up now. You're right, it could have been so much worse! Sending my love from Florida :)

Far out that was so intense I nearly blacked out:-( Feel so bad for both of you. Heal well.

Oh that's really Bad :( geht well soon! 🍀

Hope you feel better Glenny 🌸

Get well soon Glenn ✊✊✊

That place is beautiful

Buy the ticket take the ride 😂 don't worry Glenn Thornton fallander got it bad when he was there we called him urchin foot due to being spined walking out on a 6 to 10 foot day missing the keyhole

Rest up Glenn, that was a nasty gash!

Hermosos paisajes....

As a fellow woman vw owner, it is very easy to learn how to drive a stick. You should really learn just in case.

Wow....that was a nasty experience..! I may have missed it...but what did you hit, or what hit you?? to get the gash. Be sure to look after it during the healing process. And on the downside Glenn, that was some damage to the good looks...ha ha ....Take it easy, stay safe....Cheers.

I know I am late to this party, but two things, first, have a few butterfly bandages in your kit. And perhaps some hydrogen peroxide so you can wash out a wound. Second watch for infection, these deep wounds can be nasty. What you are looking for is red streaks pointing toward the wound. And/or a high body temperature. If you have either, high tail it back to the ER/clinic. DO NOT DELAY and wonder if it will get better on it's own. IT WILL NOT. Also it was excellent that you let it bleed for a bit. Glenn was not losing blood to the point of bleeding out, and it flushed the wound. On learning to drive Vance, I know Kendall can do it! I taught my daughter to drive my van, it's much easier than you think. Key is starting in 1st, not third. The plate on the floor of these vans has a lot of play in it and my daughter kept putting it in 3rd, then easing the clutch and stalling out. Took me a bit to realize what she was doing. Once she got the pattern down we did some small hill starts, ie stop on a slight incline and then start up the hill without rolling back. (1/2hr of practice and she was good.) Steeper hills, use the hand brake to help hold. Driving on the left, just remember, you as the driver want to be in the center of the road, not over near the edge. Also these vans have a huge clutch. It can take a beginning driver popping the clutch, or feathering it and not get wrecked. So don't worry if you "stall out", "grind a few gears", "miss your shift". Soon it will be like riding a bicycle, and you will be off and running. Sorry that Glenn hit his head and you all had to take a rest. Sometimes that's what the world sends you, a strong message to rest and take it easy. Looking forward to your next update and watching as Glenn's face turns from purple to yellow as the body moves the dead blood cells away from the injury and reprocesses them!

sound tracks throughout? cheers froth the videos

Fin to the head or tip of the board?

Hope you’re doing ok now Glenn. Do you guys have a SPOT device….emergency beacon for any case where it is really bad, and you have no signal ,

Ouch .... band aid, it'll be OK. Love the tune at 5:25 .... who is it?

💯🍬✨️

Isn't Geraldton Hospital closer?

You won’t forget Red Bluff, even if it is ‘tis just a scratch.🤕

Washboard roads, enough to shake out a dental filling…

I'm still not clear what happened....

The slice missed his eye, his cheek, mouth & lips, & his neck. Had any of those been sliced and the traveling companion not been prepared things'd been far worse. Take a EMT class/Advanced 1st Aid class & a CPR class before trekking.

So how did it happen very nasty

10:23 Surely you carry a 1st aid kit. I mean EVERYBODY carries a first aid kit.

kendall dont feel pressured to learn to drive you have to do it at your own pace in the right vehicle - there are heaps of solo travellers who if they had hurt themselves would have still had to drive their van - you don't need to explain why you haven't learnt to drive yet x

Please change the music, it’s so crap and annoying! I mute those parts and often stop watching because of it.
