question ah bad shape guys i can't i can't lose any money let's try that okay let's see what the room looks like oh i'm sorry okay okay it's so cool welcome to the north pole everybody first and we're trying to dry our jackets hopefully it will be dry by tomorrow it's soaking wet even though we're wearing like with those rain jackets next to nothing it was just for decoration okay time for the dinner buffet so lock our door but you got a key all right we're cozy by the way dude it might not be the best idea i might go for some winter boots and it's like i think it's the rain the problem is the rain if it wasn't raining it would be okay i'm like i'm like cold in my bones you know i'm like oh no it's so cold i can't live and there's no hot water which is anyway we're going down for some uh snacks and some tea hockey oh let's go down okay this is the dining room let's see what they have you're hungry already you can't even touch it oh upstairs okay we have to bring that okay okay so we need to bring this with us to where it is with us all the time it's on our neck it got my name on it and our id all right let's go eat and i have some rice and noodles noodles thank you thank you

do a restaurant in kale and like that okay not okay it's mountain top spaghetti all right there you have it guys now the idea is we're going to go to bed now even though it's only 6 pm because we are going to get up tomorrow at 1 30 in the morning and finish the hike to the top so that we are at the top for sunrise uh right now the weather is not calling for any rain but i'm being honest if i see one cloud in the sky tomorrow morning and then snow is baby same same i agree with you i agree so for the first time in jet lag where's history we're going to bed 6 pm 5 45 pm or we'll see you guys in the morning it's gonna be dark it's gonna be cold it's gonna be it's gonna be a challenge hopefully the juice is worth the squeeze and the sunrise will make up for everything but rain is a no-go for me oh will we do this pose tomorrow oh i want to do it i want to do it hopefully but i think we'll try it this is the problem is all of our clothes are totally soaked to the bone and there's no not be like i mean what are we gonna do yeah i don't know oh gosh all right we'll see you guys at 1 30 in the morning oh i just fell over my leg's not working okay guys oh my gosh okay guys hopefully we're going to be alive tomorrow because we got to check out at 10 30 am or it's a 100 ring it's an hour all right i can make it back in time hopefully we won't end up on the stretchers like those guys in the pictures go straight up straight up like your your lips are purple oh my god it's so cold in here oh my goodness yo you don't understand his pants the leggings were so wet they were dripping into a puddle on the floor we had to soft up the puddle that was dripping out of our clothes this is wet my shorts soaking wet we do our jacket is not dry are you still gonna go in the morning if your lips are that color you shouldn't go outside amazing yeah as long as your lips are purple all right guys oh man oh my gosh it's cold okay let's go to bed okay bye everybody we'll see you we'll see if we can make it tomorrow 1am we might not even make it yeah we'll see we'll see what happens hot drinks it's always nice and cold morning so guys we are having our breakfast right now we missed the chance to go up the peak last night because of bad weather honestly our jackets they are soaking wet so we don't we didn't bring a second jacket for each of us so we couldn't go up because it would be freezing to death so anyway as you can see outside still it's foggy super foggy so you can't really see the view but hopefully by the time we finish our breakfast and by the time we go down the sky will open up somehow and we'll be able to see the few that we're missing now guys to be clear everybody else went just what everybody else went so ivan and i were the lame ones of the bunch a few other people didn't go but we woke up at two in the morning and we saw all of this and our clothes are all soaked and we just thought we're not up to the challenge so instead of us conquering the mountain the mountain conquered us today yeah honestly if our jackets were totally dry i would have gone up what about you yeah yeah yeah yeah i would have gone up if our jackets are dry the shame is i don't think there's any view right now i think that people are going up there just to say they did it because unless the mountain is so high it's above the clouds i don't know but it looks like it's just pure fog pure wetness and it's more just like a grind it's like a battle yeah it doesn't look like a pleasant hike for us and so we just said an hour sleeping in today yeah we woke up at two o'clock in the morning and saw that it was still raining so we're like oh maybe not yeah maybe not so feel free to mock us in the comments because we came this far and we said yeah no thanks but honestly it's the rain it's the weather the rain all of our clothes are soaked these are the only dry clothes we have and we need more clothes on this it's six degrees this morning so we're thinking we're gonna hike in wet clothes in the rain in six degrees probably not that's life what can you do what can you do we don't have winter clothes because we don't travel in a backpacking so we don't know when it goes now we still have another journey to go down the mountain yo it's still going to be a huge journey to six kilometers downhill and it's raining still another six km today oh no this is life we got unlucky with the weather ah that's life that's part of part of hiking i think but that's okay we got lucky in montana it was very remember that yeah so you you win some you lose some yeah that's right there you have it guys okay thanks for watching our video maybe we'll show you some clips of what's going down see if we stayed relatively dry see how we fared on our downward six kilometers uh i would still say we climbed this mountain we just didn't summon it remember climbing we did it not really but we tried to do it all right time for us to go finish our breakfast which by the way french toast shout out and then we will bring you guys on our trip down the same way we came up yesterday all right let's go hey check it out let's see i guess it really was a bit of a shame that yesterday we got none of this looks quite nice no yeah still sort of half half but quite nice still foggy but kind of the nature of hiking yeah let's see go with the flow all right gotta be careful take your steps here take your time every step you take it's getting warmer and warmer yeah as you're going down altitude and as the time passes getting warmer yeah hopefully the views keep getting better and better yeah let's do it this is our guide my what's your secret um climbing mountain climbing three days away wow two three days a week yeah wow so are there many people who didn't make it up there yeah let's paper like most people yeah okay so we're not the only one oh yeah because of the weather right yeah okay did they see the sunrise good view oh yeah it was today yeah today yeah because you cannot really see anything see yeah a little bit cloudy anyway let's keep going down next time next time yeah let's go what a difference from yesterday going up to today going down i really think if the weather was nice this could be a really nice hike i think so too we just couldn't see nothing the whole time on the way up yeah we got bad luck with the weather wait it's okay and today today we're we're going back the sky is blue it's quite nice i want to say shout out to everyone who completed the summit yeah our guide said most people turn back yeah but whoever made it and it was like about maybe minus four degrees up there minus four in the rain with no view at that point you're really doing it just for the sake of doing it so shout out to them because ivana and i slept in all right let's continue we're almost back down let's go let's go we made it back we needed that it's too bad though oh this is the view we could have got but it was cloudy anyway we saw clouds but too bad we didn't make it up here look at all the people here oh my gosh i didn't realize i didn't realize the scale oh that's dumb never mind well i think it's pretty big as well okay guys yeah i'll give you guys some pro tr pro tips to hike mount kinabalu pro tips okay go for it tips first one is get really really good raincoat or waterproof jacket if you don't have any waterproof jacket bring two jackets because if it rains you'll get soaked even if you have your wrinkle so that's one number two uh bring a walking stick or two a pair of walking stick it will really help you to balance your hike especially when it's raining and wet and slippery number three uh my adidas combo it worked for us but i would suggest you guys get a proper hiking shoes that will really protect your yo the idea this campoon works if it's not raining yeah if it's pouring pouring rain you want some waterproof high top yes and because we saw someone on a stretcher which really added to our idea to not go up to the summit yeah we saw a guy getting carried out on a stretcher a broken ankle his foot was dangling so uh it was like this i was like oh no hope he's okay but i would say footwear is key that protects your ankle importance safe yeah and then oh another thing is if you wear glasses don't wear glasses wear your contact lenses because yesterday my glasses were fogging up and the rain just like makes it makes it wet all the droplets i couldn't see anything yo you won if i hold the camera like this it looks like you're on mount kinabalu oh oh take a picture you're there you're there oh my gosh i'm tired act tired oh you're there man something else i'm there right there thumbnail oh and the last tip that i got get a personal porter i got one right here oh shout out to me no i'm just kidding but it's better to actually over pack than pack lightly because we did pack very lightly and i think we didn't bring enough we should buy twice as many clothes yes especially because the weather is unpredictable here in the mountains so if it rains you're in trouble so it's better to pack more than you think and get a porter it costs 13 ringgit per kilo boom 13 ringgit per kilo or you can carry it yourself up to you guys you have anything else to add steve no more tips oh good it was a nice little hike uh if the weather was good it would actually be super nice yes the weather was for us i thought the the hike itself wasn't that bad it was pretty it's totally manageable it's not a difficult hike it's just when it's pouring rain like challenging at one point it was raining sideways i'm like i'm winning i'm finished i'm finished all right there you have it guys thanks for watching us climb the mountain although we chickened out in the end and we'll see you guys in the next one a few more salad vlogs before we go to sarawak okay later guys
