Welcome to the new ‘edited on phone’ series of videos, the result of an encounter on the highway in Spain. At least we don’t have earthquakes to contend with…..
Update: earthquakes back home and literal highway robbery in Spain
Welcome to the new ‘edited on phone’ series of videos, the result of an encounter on the highway in Spain. At least we don’t have earthquakes to contend with…..
Poor Scott Manley, no beats, no intro/exit bumpers, just all nekid. Vacation safe Mr. Scott Manley. Thank you for making a video no matter what.
dang glad you are ok could have been much worse stay safe!
Im so sorry for your robbery. Im Spanish and I hope you have had a good time here. What a pity that some “gitano” found you… .Hope you recover your things and have a good impression pf Spain. Enjoy your trip!!
“I’m Scott Manley, *_travel_* safe!”
So sorry for the robbery… im from spain and i can only say that… there is stupid people everywhere
Totally should have ended the video with “drive safe” 😜
I’m glad you are Okay Scott!
Lol, the out-tro. Awesome. Sad for you about the camera. Take photographs with your memory.
welcome to gypsie europe.
but dont speak out, that would be racist.
Long vacation. Must be doing well.
I’m glad you’re save. Godspeed
I’m not sure I’ve ever seen anyone be so chill while saying the phrase “I’m so sad”. Sorry to hear this has happened to you.
Bro, you’re slacking. 😉 I know a guy who was robbed at the entrance of his hotel in San José, Costa Rica at knifepoint but then robbed his robber with a knife loaned by a taxi driver.
Been to 20 or more countries in the world, Spain is the only place I have been robbed… Sad to remember a place for that.
Lo-Fi Scott Manley videos are still awesome! Just more evidence towards “it’s not the production value but the content”
Bad JUJU
he will get his …
Sorry
I really enjoy your videos
I like the new lo-fi Scott. The beginning and end music just plays in my head anyway
My Lord I’m glad your ok that could have been worse keep your eyes on a swivel
fix-a flat never works unless the thing that pierced the tire is still in the hole and it has smooth walls (no screws)
Thanks for soldiering on, Scott. Means a lot to us. Hopefully the Spanish in this community would help get your backpack and camera back. I feel your pain. 😫
maybe its just me but i got a kick out of the phone edit. “insert music here lol”
at least everyone is ok, bummer about the camera and stuff, but as you said its replaceable.
Never visiting Spain.
But that’s probably irrelevant because I was never going to visit Spain.
Sad to hear that! Glad you have your Mac encrypted though. I hope the rest of your vacation goes without a hitch.
Speaking of wobbling… Is there a digital camera stabilization software you can apply to this video? asking for a friend…
Seems like a good time for a Scotsman to pull out his claymore, track down the bastard, and gut him like a fish.
Ouch.
Those Space X tags look pretty unique. No chance of tracking them down on Ebay or some such?
Now, the thieves are probably playing your Kerbal Space Program and purposely crashing your ships!
Just material Scott, still frustrating i understand. I am glad you are ok.
Ive seen Elon live watching some live IIS streams Sun nights on youtube. Maybe you might run into him and ask him for some new Tags.. lol – Just a thought. Loved watching your Kerbal tutorials back in the day!
In summer in Spain is very frequent eastern Europe mafia robbing tourists… What you describe sounds as their “modus operandi”.
Damn that sucks, Maybe SpaceX can do some good PR and provide you with replacement tags.
Doesn’t matter what was stolen when you have such a positive attitude! Would have ruined my trip
Hi Scott, we are also traveling Spain this week by rental car. Thanks for the heads up. Let me know if you are around Madrid Thursday or Friday and we can say hello.
I recommend you watch out for online listings for your camera. These criminals are not the brightest bunch and are mostly dependent on actual cash to please their gang leader, buy some drugs and firearms etc. I bought my stolen handset from ebay. The seller made it clear in the description that the imei was blocked hence only meant for “parts only”.
@scott damn that sucks ! but i dont comment much but Id like to thank you for your casts/videos, keep em comming
!!!!! always enjoy them
, chris , RIP carpentry
Hi! LightSail 2 was launched last week, a project to lower the cost of space exploration. Are you going to discuss the project?
top right ocd diamond malfunction. I’ll be in your area on Tuesday. sorry and thanks for the headsup
Dang, glad you’re okay, but still!
tough situation, good thing you’re a tough guy. glad you flew safe.
Messed up man, so sorry Scott. Be well brother.
For me, it was never about the resolution or editing…it’s always been about the content. 👍🏽. As always, appreciate you doing this while on vacation.
*gets robbed*
“Im scott manley fly safe.”
Can you carry a gun in Spain? Idk how other countries are with gun laws, glad your okay tho!! ♥️ Stay safe
3:48 – Maybe SpaceX will give you a replacement tag if you call them and tell them about it getting stolen?
“I know I’m not a geologist but I do live in California” 😂😂😂😂
Hi Scott, some parts of Spain are as bad as some parts of LA. FLY SAFE buddy.
Naval Air Weapons Station China Lake…it’s the US Navy’s own aerospace proving ground.
It’s okay, I’ve got the intro & outro music playing in my head. Anyway, glad you’re okay and sorry that happened to you!!
I am 100% perfectly fine with whatever quality video your thoughts and knowledge arrive through. I’m glad you’re safe and sorry you went through that. Here’s to hoping for smoother travels going forward!
Oh dear. That sucks.
Hope u get the stuff back nevertheless.
More luck for the Rest of the trip
At least you’re still smiling, even if just on the outside. Hope you’re OK
Go to spain they said,
it will be fun they said…
gets robbed.
That moment when the opening is just as long as the intro normally is
New tagline: Check your tires! Hope the Guardia Civil track the robbers down.
Thanks for carrying on regardless. You’re an inspiration to us all
Keep your head up, we are all rooting for you!
Ouch – sorry to hear it Scott. Hope you either get the stuff back or at least the bugger who took it doesn’t manage to profit for it.
Tip for everyone travelling: take your memory card out of your camera when you’re not using it and put it somewhere safe (NOT in your wallet).
It’s “China Lake Naval Air Weapons Station” by the way.
My sincerest sympathies mate. The stuff can be replaced of course, just glad you are ok!
Sucks man.
The world isnt all shiny happy people.
Even in 1st world countries sometimes.
sorry to hear that happened to you man.
shit happens, but life goes on.
Nooo! I’m Spanish and specially from Catalonia. I’m so sorry you had that experience! I swear it is not usual 🙈
Scott Manley: Goes back to Vlogging. :-/
Glad you’re safe buddy.
I’m sorry to hear that Scott… it’s a shame people are like that in this world! What goes around comes around!
Glad you’re safe! It could have been much worse.
And kudos for accepting a special appearance on Nostalgia Nerd’s video a few days ago.
“I’m Scott Manley, drive safe”
So sorry for your loss ! Have some good time at the beach 🏖
Damn. Interstate ’76 still relevant today: “Never get out of the car.”
Sorry you had to endure this. Hope you and your family can still enjoy the rest of your vacation!
Already had read about it on Twitter, bummer. Hope you still have a good vacation anyway.
Ask Elon for a tag replacement perhaps?
i believe its china lake naval air weapons station. everyone thats not mission critical got voluntold to evacuate.
I often drive up 395 from Riverside headed up to Boise, and it goes right past that quake area. I hope I get sent out there this week, I haven’t felt a quake since I left the Bay Area 5 years ago lol
Sorry about your loss, but I want to say that I find you just as enjoyable to listen to without all the bells and whistles, and you did a good job of of putting in visuals.
Wow this is crazy everyone please be safe you too scott
Scott I live in southern Spain, in the coast of Cartagena, if u need anything let me know I’ll gladly help!
chin up Scott, you have added Experience and facts to your holiday.
Oh no. Hope that you can get it back. Great video btw
Dutch has been referring to the quake/weather analogy for years. The comparison is obvious when you watch the progression of energy along crustal weaknesses and transmission of energy across solid tectonic plates in relatively predictable patterns.
In Spain no one can hear you scream.
Oh wait – yes they do, when your computer and camera are stolen.
As for the robbers. From Gorgan of Triacus (Star Trek TOS): “Death to you all. Death to you all.”
Get to twitter we need to get Elon to sauce some new tags for Scott, hang in there man we got you
Good on the fella that helped you though! 👍🏻
Fingers crossed the rest of your holiday goes smoothly Scott!
This would have been a good video to end with “drive safe” 🚗
Sounded like a simple robbery. And very glad that no one got hurt.
Encrypted laptop = good infosec. Too bad Apple products don’t have a self destruct like the spoof ones in Iron Sky 2. I’d love to see him iExcommunicate that bastard in real life.
oh my lord bud, glad you guys are ok!
look at that commitment to posting- just using a phone now!
gotta land it!!
Daaaaamn, that sucks big time! Glad you’re safe!
I remedied the lack of intro/outro by opening another tab with an old video of yours and played the videos back and forth at the adequate times.
Funny enough I got robbed just west of Barcelona, had my laptop stolen from my car at a service station
From a Barcelona follower who lives in Switzerland I’m so sorry this happened to you in my country, it really sucks! Thankfully some local folk helped you!
Keep all bags chained and locked together making a large mass that will not fit through the air lock.
In Japan earthquakes are studied by the Meteorological Agency (JMA)! Edit: Posted in response to 01:45.
How DARE someone steal Scott Manley’s backpack? We need to start an international campaign to track down these land pirates and bring them to justice.
Those were some epic beats scott!
Loving the new intro
Soo basically when someone comes to help you with your car, always make a picture of his face and send it to loved ones.
So when something happens there is always a picture and when nothing happens you can tell you loved ones that this was the nice dude that helped you fix your car
Bad luck Scott. Thanks for carrying on with just your phone.
Scott “Smiles Even When He Gets Robbed” Manley. Inserting beats like a boss.
If it’s not the fault of San Andreas then who’s fault is it?
It’s a classic! It happens a lot, especially in Spain and southern France, but it could be anywhere. I have heard this trick being played on a number of people. The good advice: Take your longer brakes AWAY from the highway restaurants.
PS: A lot of Europeans also have their summer vacation now, which is why these bastards are mostly active now.
Geez I know apologizing for a behavior in my country means nothing, as I’m not connected to those people really. But it really feels bad that this had to happen to you here 😓
Hope it didn’t leave a very bad impression!
This is the reason why space traveling is safer.
Nobody ever got robbed on the way to Moon.
I can send you those Remove Before Flight tags – just send me an address and I’ll hook you up, and more.
@elonmusk can you hook our boy Scott Manley up with some new tags?
“I’m Scott Manley, Drive safe”
You played Eve Online. You should be used to gate camping by now…
