EP1 Overlanding Scandinavia | The Proper Function of Man is to Live | X Overland Nordic Series
X Overland is BACK for the all-new Season 5! Before Covid struck and locked down most of the world, the team had been itching to cross international waters to continue their journey of overland exploration.
Navigating supply-chain setbacks, logistics nightmares, and a world on edge, the X Overland crew is determined to travel once again.
The new fleet of overland-ready vehicles featuring a 2022 Toyota Tundra, a 2021 Tacoma, and a 2015 4Runner needs to be tested, packed, and shipped out in time to make it to Europe.
The crew is ready. The trucks are built. Now all that’s left is to see if we can get there and start our journey!

Thanks for being here everyone! We are beyond excited to share this series with you all!
We are excited to watch another adventure. Thank you for including us in your life experiences. For your overland rigs, why don't you include killswitches for the extra equipment? It isn't hard to install those switches and keep the vehicle powered up while cutting the power for things not needed.
thoroughly enjoy XO series .....
Really enjoyed EP1, thank you. Looking forward with anticipation and excitement to the rest. Inspiring 🤙
Awesome job just getting there. Cities are not your sweet spot your overlanders!
This is content I love. I WFH and just eat up stuff like this. No frills, no nonsense, no politics, just pure unadulterated exploration. Your content reminds me that there's an entire world out there and I need to see more of it. Love the flag idea - it truly takes a village.
I'm surprised national geographic has not approached you. All of you are something special. The editing and cinematography are world class. Never stop!!!
NG still exists? Who knew?
It's called dedication and hard work
within the first few minutes, I am receiving goosebumps relating to the cinematography. Spot on fellows! production is immaculate!
Thank you so much!
First thing i thought as well.
It's one of many reasons I enjoy their channel.
Especially when starting the vehicles in the belgium port and when assembling all team members I was having goosebumps all over. This is just pure adventure cinema IMO. Can't describe how excited I am for the upcoming episodes. With the words of Nicolas Cage in "The Rock", Godspeed to everyone out there, from a German admirer.
My thoughts exactly!
Production, storytelling, cinematography... It all just gets better every time! Seeing the best continue to evolve is inspiring, so thank you for that! Stoked for episode 2.
Exactly
The fact that this is free on KZhead is insane! I can't wait to see this whole trip! The production quality ahs defiantly elevated! Congrats everyone!
Thanks for taking the first 5 minutes to recap all of the spectacular adventures that you've allowed us to share with you!
You guys... I NEVER comment on YT videos, but this is unavoidable. What an inspiration of adventure, preparation, overlanding, video production.... so many things in one. I have a young family and plan on getting outdoors more often with a new Tundra build. This has been an inspiration. You made a new fan and subscriber. Can not wait for the next vid!
Wow, thank you!
idk if someone Finnish (or familiar w the topic) can comment on this, but i've heard and read that Finland is generally not considered part of Scandinavia. i know that its a complex topic and i dont mean to nitpick, but i have had a Finnish person correct me for referring to it as a part of Scandinavia before. they told me it would be correct to use the term Nordic rather than Scandinavian, but idk. i guess it doesnt rly matter for the purposes of this video
Hi a Finn here. Yes you are right prober term to call this area where they are travelling would be Nordics. Scandinavian countrys includes only Sweden, Norway and Denmark. When you include on the list Iceland and Finland we are Nordics (Nordics courties). We like to call ourself Nordics.
One of the best 42 minutes of my life. Can’t wait for the next episode!
Wow! Thank you!
The amount of planning that goes into this is insane.
It's better than going to the movies!
at last.. thank God. waited so freaking long and hell yeah, Kurt is back
Beautifully shot
Thank you!
I still can't believe this is all free..
Thank you! We do have our own streaming and apps at Overlandernetwork.Com - episodes launch there first ad free. But yes, still free on KZhead thanks to our awesome partners!
Our hearts go out to Torfi and his Friends at this time of unrest in his land. Hope he is safe. It was such a pleasure to get to know him in this series. Thank you. Cathleen
How does this channel only have 350k subscribers? This is like some Nat Geo level stuff here.
Having discovered you in Series 6, Afrika… it’s a no brainer to watch this series next. … and as a South African, my mind boggles at the cost of the Tundra build alone- so the entire cost would be millions of Rands! Eish! You guys are amazing.
Thank you!
This is absolutely my favorite series to watch, cinematic views, story lines, communication and relatability. You nail it all and more.
Im not sure that TV is more "prestigious" or reaches a wider audience than youtube any more....but the quality of your films is second to none. Absolutely love watching the series and coming back to watch them again. Top notch work
These series never disappoint.
You guys have the best overlanding video series I have ever seen. It's inspiring.
Amazing! Can't wait for the next Episode!
Just amazing! You are the epitome of what Overlanding is and inspiration.
Beyond excited for the rest of the series!
Beautiful! Can’t wait for the next episode
Terrific video. I met Clay and Rachelle at last years' Overland Expo West in Flagstaff and conveyed how I started overlanding at 65 years old, thanks to their video series. I'm 69 now. Their videos have inspired me to get out there. Thanks again, Clay, Rachelle and the team.
Your welcome! Thank you for watching!
We are all going with you in spirit. “peace be your journey “.
Awesome to see these great Australian companies on a global scale. Redarc, Alu Cab, Patriot Campers 💪
You have assembled the best crew as always!
Yes, we have the same problem every time we landed in Australia to pick up our truck for the weekend.. the battery is dead. We use a power pack as well. We all need time in our lives overlanding around the world
This should be a NG documentary or Netflix special series, it is that good, thank you !
The whole family gets excited when we see a new ep! And the Jack London quote is fantastic!
Another superb,, episodes,, way better than Netflix ,,

I've watched all your expeditions. Kudo's on turning your hobby into what I suspect is a viable business. Clay is a mastermind with great vision. This operation is run with such precision and attention to detail. These are not regular people.

Very exciting! Your production qualities are outstanding. Thank you!

Been waiting for this to drop for a long while now. We spend 2 weeks in Norway in June 2022. So crazy to see you've been to places we travelled about a month before you guys did. And by looking at the map you've been passed our house just 1 KM in the Netherlands when you went to Kerkdriel... Mad stuff!
PS Love to see Trollstigen on the outtro, we've been up and down it twice! One time in thick fog, was so cool :D
So close! Clay-
So relaxing watching this episode, can't wait for the rest !! Great job guys
YES!
Glad to see y'all back at it! Looking forward to the adventure!
