Amtrekker
Hey Team,
I’m an unemployed vagrant. All I have is a backpack full of technology, a shoestring budget and a very important list. When everything is crossed off my list I get to go home! Let me know if you want to trade one of those shoestrings for help. brett@amtrekker.com

The Land of Infinite Stairs [podcast]:

Hey Team,

By the time I realized today was already Wednesday again I only had about five hours to get stuff captured, edited, compressed and uploaded which, let me just say, would have been ABSOLUTELY impossible if I had done the survival skills podcast. I have almost an hour and a half of video to go through for that one. So things are going to be happening a little out of order in the video world. That being said: Enjoy the walk to the top of the Empire State Building!

Watch as Amtrekker perseveres against terrible odds and finally completes the self proclaimed “toughest objective on the list!”

He talks. He climbs. He sweats profusely.

I don’t have anything else to say about this podcast. I’m just so freaking ecstatic it got crossed off the list!

Okey dokey…Here’s the youtube link!

Thanks for watching, everyone!

Go tell the world about Amtrekker.com!

I’m done.

Brett.

Feel free to help me cross ANOTHER one off the list!


Don’t let me stop you.

  2. Very nice video kid! I am so happy I gave you my jacket! For the jacket life with me was so LAME. He spent most of the time in my closet. But now as I often see you completeing missions with it on I think, wow, that jacket has the life!

  3. I’ve said it once, and I says it again! Let’s multitask capricious, unrelated tasks and see what hilarity ensues! Fly Fish while riding an Ostrich up the Empire State Building steps!?? AM I KIDDING ME!?
    Two Words: EEEEMMMMMMY! The film actors guild eats this stuff up, and sundance? c’mon! ostrich racing is the wave of the future. Ride that wave like it was an ostrich, my green capped friend!
