I don't know if anyone watched it this far, but the camera starts stuttering a few minutes after the 2 hours and 10 minutes mark.

Skipped to one section, immediately saw a truck?
No lonely.

1966 anti cow slaughter agitation Google it

reading all the comments and skimming the replies took me until 32:05
giving remarks on all that 1:04:30
loading all my recommended videos took me until 1:06:55

Finally a 10 hour long driving relaxation video that's actually 10 hours long ;)
Edit: except the Tesla doesn't make sound :s

Quality content

30:20 aaaaaaand here on the right is where I flipped over my 1989 Honda Civic not six months later!

CGO Grey Subscribers: Suddenly those "Californians" skits on SNL make sense

So CGP Grey, what was with the side trip on Secret Town road? trying to find it ha ha ha
FYI beyond the sign that says "end of county maintained road" is usually a bad place to take a rental car :)
cheers for the video though, I work for Caltrans and stuff like this is a neat time capsule, like seeing the construction of the Colfax Narrows Truck Climbing Lane project

Dear gods! Is this really an entire road trip in real time???

me when i'm driving: 5:10:20

How does he just not make any sounds for 9:44:39 h??!?!

7:03 in his vlog Grey curses here. Some mighty fine editing Grey

2:41:00 I worked at that waterpark for a summer, crazy he was there

Found a good use for it in this lockdown. I can use it with my mobile VR headset while gym-cycling indoors. I would be riding very fast though ;-). Any more POV videos like these.

Really fun way to check out the lay of the land!

1:36:07
hmm... maybe just a little lane change
*BONK* NO

how does one have a road trip without any music? sounds like hell to me

grey: *gets into left turn lane*
also grey: lets drive across 2 lanes to turn right from the left turn lane

How did you achieve the GPS watermark?

ASMR?

7:48 new Tesla.

Another one at 8:16

This is ASMR to me.

Me a year ago: well I admire your dedication, but 9 hours is a bit much for me...
Me in quarantine: I HAVE SAT IN THE SAME PLACE FOR FOUR MONTHS GIMME THE WHOLE PLAYLIST.

Its crazy to think that of all the places in america that he could have driven, he spent 30 minutes driving through my town.

From 29:53, I live a right, another right, a left, another left, another left, and a fourth left on to the driveway.

Just kidding FBI

I'm on your driveway

Watching other people go on road trips? Sounds like life saver for quarantine to me.

Bitch I just forced myself to watch the whole thing now I'm sleepy and going fucking insane because I stayed up fuck me fuck my life Im a dumb bitch

I JUST FINISHED THE 1 HOUR VERSION AND REALIZED THESE EXISTED, IM GOING TO BE AWAKE THE NEXT 35 HOURS

I liked the part when he was driving.

at about 2 hours in I recognized he's driving through the stretch of I-80 highway that I saw countless times on childhood road trips from San Jose to Sacramento! ah nostalgia :')

1:09 love how he starts this 10hr journey by turning right from a left only turning lane

I'm kinda more surprised that he didn't listen to radio the entire time... Unless he had headphones.

Me: *wondering what i could do today*
*THIS VIDEO APPEARS*
Me: I KNOW!

8:14:00 Why a stop?

one year later and i just only found out that grey drove through my city 😳 209 represent ✊

Honestly I like these videos running in the background. I can still do something while they run because they don't distract me entirely. They don't require me to listen or spend brain resources on them either so I can just focus on something else without getting lost. And most importantly they get rid of that pesky silence when doing difficult tasks. When I'm sitting there for hours a time trying to do difficult stuff. Where otherwise there would be total silence.

06:27:08 amazing clouds

Keep left except to pass you weird idiot.

3:34:05 OM GTHANK YOU FINALLY I NEEDED TO GO SO BAD OMFG

Am I watching this because I’ve been in quarantine for so long and I miss driving and road trips and the feeling of being free? Yes

2:35 ice cream sandwiches to the right

this is surprisingly good background noise for homework

Google maps route please

Chad Weiss watching this live was really fun because most people were trying to figure out exactly where he was... I must admit I was one of those people. Someone actually figured out that it wasn’t live and was pre recorded based off of the weather in the video.

Watching this in 2020 makes it feel like I'm traveling :)

I'm bored... so this is the time to keep my mind active as possible.

Okay, taking a break now.
I'll do more tomorrow.... then I'm going to copy this post, add it to the new content, delete this comment, and make a new one with both parts combined.

Rinse, repeat, until I've done the whole vid....possibly all five parts. It depends on how bored I get daily.

damn what a dedication lol

You *did* let go of your dedication, didn't you?

Nice annotations, but you missed 14:15, which is an infamous spot known to us locals as the "BERRYESSA BUMP". it really throws your suspension in for a ride even if it isn't so apparent in the video.

aMy god

Liar!!!

Can you explain what the train track detour was about a 3:36:00?

I haven't really touched these due to lack of time, but now that I'm stuck at home, these have proven to be very relaxing. I truly think this is a piece of tranquil artwork capturing the essence of the American road trip in all its beauty and allowing the viewer to vicariously join in on the experience, which is relevant due to the current state of things. Congratulations on a piece of modern art and thank you for the hours of beautiful entertainment!!!

Perfect for quarantine, you are saving my life

I am hate car trips. Last time I went to the sea I went with a broken ass car and I was afraid that it would fall apart

Ok, so I live in the NorCal I-80 area where Grey was driving thru. And it was so weird seeing the vlog of him going by the mall i always go to, seeing all the exits on the fwy i know by heart, and even that one rest stop. i dunno but kinda trippy

How do you manage your memory storage on the go? Such a long video would at least require 1000gb+.

1/2, 1/3, 3/4 miles,... to (a place)
Is American really good at math? :/

@Xuân Nguyễn the numbers do actually tell us the distance to exits and mergers

Idk, the signs overhead said that.

Xuân Nguyễn what do you mean?

Wait so everything in the proper video was a voice over? I feel so betrayed

oof ouch my turning lane

1:17 ... Did you just use the left lane to go right????? 😱😱😱

That's how everyone drives in California. :|

So... what's up? What's this about?

driving duh

I think that this series should have been posted on your second channel.

I love how there's barely even a transition. One minute it's raining and then by about 4:15:00 the road is just like "You get snow now >:("

I mean the temprature change can be subtle like that

A lot of times, you need to put chains on your tires to make it over. You watch the tires of the car in front of you. If there is spray, roads are still wet. Spray stops, now you are driving on ice.

THE OPEN ROAD 7:05!!!

I haven't been to the States (yet), but dear god does it look big. Obviously here in the UK, we don't really have much surface area to build the country on, so seeing everything being so spaced out it kind of unreal.

I have now found definitive proof that Grey has been in my hometown, and I can watch his drive thru it. V trippy.

Aaand the journey starts with passing a red light in the first 40 seconds XD

17:23 that’s my exit!

Jaqueline road wooooo!!!

does he speak`? :D

6:22:10 - I got family that lives in Fernley, you driving on the roundabout there brings back memories of how much they hate it😂

You should also talk :)))

Bruh watch your lane discipline

Wow, Death Stranding looks great.

I just clicked on the video to watch Grey supercharge at the mall I go to.

When you want to go on a road trip but you’re to lazy to leave your house

What's the equivalent of backseat driving but through video uploaded on YouTube? I mean, running a yellow light at a crosswalk and switching from a left turn lane all the way over to a right turn just in the first two minutes.... ;-)

Those poor cattle @ 2:02:25 -- breaks my heart, man, every single time I see those trucks on the highway.

Before you guys get on me about some stereotype I fit, I want to clarify that I am only sharing my feelings. I do not expect anything of you. I do not wish to guilt you.

I do wish that we, as a whole society, would spend maybe a tiny bit more attention to how we treat other living things. I try not to think about this stuff too much otherwise I'd go down a very deep depressive hole. But when I do think about it, all of it hits HARD and ALL AT ONCE. I feel compelled to say something about it when that happens.

If you've made it this far, thank you for reading my comment. I wish you all the best.

I'm going to flag this for nudity so youtube staff will have to watch through this entire clip.

You're supposed to use your blinkers before you do the actual turns.

Does he talk at all in this?

This video was clearky streched over 10 minutes for ad money...

comfy

hey i've been to that hotel before in the beginning of the video

sooooooooooooooooooooo happy that there is time 100 on my addon

Thank You! I can't afford traveling to the US, but at least I can see what it's like. Actually, that was kind of a sad statement ☹.

Eduardo Rocha I hope 1 day you can visit the USA. But come to Australia, it’s amazing and relatively cheap to get into.

I couldn't understand what is the point of the video?

This is kinda relaxing

He drove this entire time with no music at least?

NEprimo prolly an audiobook with one earbud in

This kinda feels like Truck simulator but real

Im happy you uploaded this version

Your on the wrong side of the road getting to my Brian 😂

make sure to watch it till the end!

Weirdest thing is I literally just did a cross country roadtrip from Atlanta to San Francisco & Back this summer and just made a timelapse of the entire trip lol

youtube : how to increase watch time?
CGP Grey : *proceeds to make a 9 hour long video*

3:34:00 you get lost ?

o i see the pee pee situation

This video made me want to get a drivers license, a car and go on a road trip myself.

Pedro de Sá you don’t have a drivers license? How do you get around 😂

9 hours pff I've seen more longer videos than that

@GGP Grey
I trust you were listening to an audio book with one earbud in?

i come back here after watching some ol vsauce videos, and i see this. bro i swear to god this would've been the best april fools video you could post

Studying for an exam and this is weirdly the perfect background for it. A little bit of ambient noise, something to look at other than my notes every once in a while... good stuff. 10/10, would recommend

Wow, I knew electric were quiet, but damn that's a quiet car!! Does the road noise seem worse with less engine white noise to drown it out?

You went right past my house.

I played my own music to this because every road trip needs a personized music playlist. you enjoyed ;)

Watching on the side while working, volume off and... wait. One minute in and he turns right after going all the way into the left-turn lane?!?
