Adapt draws the line at YBS's transparent whale-watching kayak

Brodie Moss's Australian wildlife adventure has Adapt asking questions, while viewers suggest he should make the trip himself.

Why this story? The video is running at 108,144 views a day, 6 times its usual pace (18,053).

I’m Never Going to Australia..I’m Never Going to Australia..

Video summary

Press to jump

  1. 0:52Moss approaches a stingray, prompting Adapt to ask how stingrays attack.
  2. 4:47Strida wades near a small shark, and Adapt questions the dog's proximity to it.
  3. 8:35A sea snake encounter gives way to plans for whale-watching in a transparent kayak.
  4. 11:38Moss's mangrove hammock sits above rising water, with sharks and rays swimming below.
  5. 14:06Adapt rewinds to inspect a little black fish that appears to have heart-shaped eyes.
  6. 17:40The clear-kayak whale encounter arrives.

Adapt can handle watching from behind a headset. Climbing into a transparent kayak to look for humpback whales is another proposition entirely.

In "I'm Never Going to Australia..", he reacts to YBS Youngbloods host Brodie Moss exploring remote Australian waters with his dog, Strida. Moss's calm encounters with sea creatures leave Adapt trying to work out where confidence ends and danger begins. "Do Australians just have no fear?" he asks after a large crab emerges from the sand.

The reaction has added about 108,000 views in a day, six times its usual daily pace. Posted four days ago, it opens with Adapt saying he wants to try reacting to different kinds of videos, a departure from the Call of Duty sessions also appearing on Adapt Live.

There is plenty here to test his comfort zone: Strida wading near a small shark, Moss handling a sea snake, and a hammock above water that keeps rising. The clear kayak is a particularly firm boundary for Adapt, who finds the prospect of whale-watching from it terrifying.

Viewers are proposing almost the opposite of the title: a visit to Australia and a collaboration with Moss. Some describe having watched both creators for years, making this reaction an unexpected meeting of their viewing habits.

Not every discovery produces alarm. A small black fish appears to have heart-shaped eyes, and Adapt rewinds for a closer look. "Oh my god, the fish has heart eyes."
