weird to stumble across a 5.3 million view video of a guy sleeping in a roundabout I’ve driven through on an almost weekly basis for almost my entire life

This is gonna become a trend and next thing you know you’re gonna be walking into your apartment and hear somebody underneath your bed say “I think this is a pretty good stealth camping spot, the owner has just returned home, but from my perspective here I don’t believe he’ll be able to see me. Now I’m just gonna finish my turkey wrap…”

Imagine taking a walk at night and hearing a bush talking about a salad mix

This man is terrifled he'll get caught chilling in a bush. And I am here for it. Also I don't exactly understand why, but the idea of doing stuff like this is so comfy.

I'm not homeless, I'm just enjoying a beer and a turkey wrap in this roundabout. It's for youtube I swear.

I love how he acts like he's stealing diamonds when rly he's just sleeping in dirt, what a precious soul.

The power of the hi vis to get into any place inconspicuously is underrated

This episode hits all the right marks for being a great stealther: - Tactical gear - Hidden in plain sight - Cozy location - Potential trouble with authorities

I have no damn clue how I found this channel. And now I'm driving around going "man that spot is perfect for a stealth camp."

the way he is panicking about getting caught chilling in a bush is hilarious lmao

I love how he thinks everyone is on to him 😂 I get like that in public too where I think everyone is looking at me but I guarantee most of the time no one cares about you, everyone has their own thing going on. What an amazing spot though! I love these oddball spots.

Only in Canada would a guy in a bush be more polite than anyone I’ve ever met. He said it was ok to unsubscribe if we want. How wholesome

I can't get over the idea that you're walking past a roundabout and you hear someone going through steps on how to prepare a meal like a cooking show. 😂

wild how existing in a public space at night is like a survival horror

What I love about youtube is that it gives people a platform to do the weirdest things. Thank you, this was a fun watch.

I'm really glad I found this channel because it satisfies my childhood urge to camp literally anywhere where people cant directly see you

😂 I don’t think the sound of your beer opening is as likely to alarm the general public as much as the sound of the shrubbery talking to itself.

steve has transcended stealth in such a way he can actually now use HIGH VISIBILITY items to somehow FURTHER his stealth.

I’ve always wanted to camp inside a roundabout , this man is living the dream . Simple pleasures

I love that it is 11:19 pm, I’m toasty, snuggled up under a blanket listening to my man singing Tennessee whiskey, and I’m watching a gentleman camp in a roundabout which is something I’ve always thought about. What a time to be alive

The fact he didn't have to face a firing squad or get thrown in Alcatraz after this little fiasco is a miracle. Truly a lucky break.

“Let’s just stealth crack this beer” Stealth has taken over the mundane of this man’s life and I love it

Police: "huh just a person having a little walk, well, anyways" Him: "omg im gonna be busted and rot in a federal prison"

Cops: "What are you doing camping in this roundabout?" Steve: "I'm making $42,000 in ad revenue." Cops: "Okay, have a great night."

Y'know I never thought I'd watch 30 minutes of a grown man secretly hiding in the middle of a roundabout and enjoy it but there's a first for everything I guess-

This feels like the adult version of hiding in the clothing racks at the department store! I love it! Always entertaining and fun...just a great escape. Thank you Steve!

I love the dedication to this challenge to the point where you stealth cracked a bear in a loud ass roundabout

Never woulda guessed the most entertaining videos on the internet would be a guy camping in a roundabout.

Same type of joy you feel as a kid hiding in those circles of clothes on hangers in stores. Edit: Nice to know that this seems to be a pretty universal experience. At least in America.

Something about the commentary is so entertaining to me, Steve is living on the edge in the most mundane way lol

People are laughing at his anxiety, I am too, I have these thoughts all the time. But this guy is an absolute genius, he thinks of every little detail and everything that could go wrong even if it doesn’t.

Watching this makes me feel like a kid again. I used to hide in spots like that when i was younger, playfully acting as a ninja or a spy or something. I miss that. So thank you for bringing back some sweet memories ❤️ Cheers from 🇸🇪

Steve has gotta be the bravest extremely anxious man who has ever lived

I love that you can attach “stealth” to action and it immediately becomes a high stakes game. Time for some stealth eating loud foods in libraries. Wish me luck bros.

This man’s courage in the face of petty embarrassment is inspirational. I wanted to see him get caught just to see the shame of him having to explain the situation

Yay! Camping With Steve! Hey man, this was the first video of yours I stumbled upon, last year. Go UKposts. When is saw ROUNDABOUT on the screen I laughed my butts off, me and my best friend started doing stuff like this when we were twelve, and a roundabout was the first, and favorite place. Being as close to humanity as possible without anyone knowing instills this strangely powerful feeling. Like a nervous confident giddiness, you know the feeling. Anyhoo, at the end you actually said “everyone’s childhood dream come true, ROUNDABOUT”, so touching and humorous to a fellow pea in the pod. Probably my favorite video just based on the location itself. Ok, I, and everyone who subscribes, loves your sense of humor, your politeness, and general mannerisms, moral code of following the rules while bending the piss out of them, you’re a riot, and we love you. Also, your soothing radio voice simply makes it a pleasure to have on the tv. If just one or two high ranking politicians from each country were like you, we’d have no worries for the future. Please never stop this channel…

I don't think I'll ever go around a roundabout again without thinking that Steve Wallis might be in there.

There’s something oddly sweet about a man anxiously reading the contents of a bag of lettuce in a bunch of bushes to a camera

I just wanted to check in on this video because it was the very first Steve Wallis video UKposts's algorithm shoved in my front page when the video first came out, in April 2022. It is now January 2024 and it's always crazy to see how far this video has come and how much I've fallen into the stealth camp rabbit hole. Cheers, Steve!

Buy an improved combat shelter tent, it's durable, 6lbs, and packs down to the size of a paper towel roll. Also it would have fit and it's got blackout material on the inside and it costed me less than $100 dollars

Legend has it traffic built up and Steve now lives full time on the roundabout.

I love how more and more daring he's getting with these. Soon enough he is gonna be camping inside offices via the ducts.

You throwing away the one piece of litter was so wholesome. You’re so sweet. ❤

I really enjoyed this. A year ago or so I got into Vagrant Holiday videos where a dude essentially visits a bunch of countries without spending much at all by camping in the wild and unseen places. I'm glad I found a similar channel. I've been interested in survival since I was a kid. I grew up watching survival shows, primarily Survivorman. My dad and I camped a lot and I learned how to make a fire several ways without a blowtorch or lighter. I'm not in very good shape due to an injury that prevents me from being very mobile, so I'm happy I can still live vicariously through videos like these. Plus, I probably wouldn't have the guts to camp in a place like this.

Steve's mood seems to be held high by constantly expecting the worst and then being relieved at how things go. Found this channel a few days ago and love watching

You can stealth camp just about anywhere if you get drunk enough.

I love the editing and style of this video. So many other UKpostsrs would try to overhype this and make it way more intense and therefore less genuine

What a nice and genuine person...stealth camping in the middle of a roundabout. Bless his heart.

Imagine during the video Steve hears another beer can opening from somewhere in the roundabout 😂

It's almost 1am , I'm watching a man in his 30's drinking beer , eating a tortilla and almost getting arrested by security controllers in a roundabout , nothing else in the world would ever make me write this sentence , keep doing this , you're crazy lmao

This was recommended to me randomly and I have to say I absolutely love this guys energy. Great commentary, no annoying music, kept me invested the whole way through. Earned my subscription and I’m looking forward to more of these!

Bro, why are all these tiktok trends so popular? This may be the most harmless and fun looking video on the internet.

The fact that you can get away with stuff like this is a perfect illustration of how everyone around us is paying way less attention to us than we usually think, especially if you're anxious! Honestly it's kind of reassuring.

Gotta admire the 6.4 million views on such a genuine video. No clickbait, no outrageous title/premise. It feels close to the essence of UKposts. When it was just people making videos, before all the corporatism, copyright BS, and people playing the algorithm.

This reminds me of the time I was hitch hiking through Europe! But for all the great monuments and people I met. The thing I remember the most, was stealth-camping alone in Germany, Italy. Every morning I had this immense felling of gratitude of being alive! The sunrise is never as beautiful as after stealth-camping🙏🙏🙏

This would be the perfect spot for people that find car sounds like sleepy asmr 😂 I would be trying to visualise myself in the back seat of one, playing the gameboy with the wind on my forehead Omg the part where you were panicking you were about to lie to the police was so suspenseful, I feel anxious after it

Stealth camping is something many of us have thought about in passing. This channel allows us to live out our fantasy.

This feels like a combo of sneaking out as a kid and camping with your dad, but with less yelling lol

I just came across your channel. And wow! I do really like the idea of stealth camping. I was actually homeless for a couple years. I guess now i can just say i was on a massive stealth camping trip. Lol. At times i miss those days just on account of doing exactly what your doing and why. Pretty awesome. I totally love it! Subscribed. Can't wait to see more.

Whenever u drive by a roundabout and u feel like ur being watched just rest easy because it's just Steve camping

Buddy went through the trouble to make himself look like a city worker yet he's carrying around a camera while climbing into a roundabout lol. Gotta love Steve

All the times you thought you saw a face in the shadows is just some dude stealth camping.

Love that the advert I watched during this video about a Canadian hiding in a small roundabout was a tourism video about Canada’s wide open spaces.

sometimes when i’m walking late at night and i pass a big bush, i always worry there’s someone in there who will jump out at me. “that’s ridiculous” i tell myself “no one hides in bushes.” YOU HAVE NOW REAFFIRMED THIS FEAR IN ME

I feel like Steve is the type to brute force a stealth mission by going 100% loud

You are definitely setting a trend man, I see people doing this all over downtown Colorado Springs. Some people do it for months or even year, unreal dedication. You are an inspiration!

Hi Steve. I find it amazing that the people that post negative and mean comments really don't understand the concept of the channel Camping with Steve. Steve is not homeless, he works has a home and family and friends. His youtube channel just grew because of his simplicity of Camping Camping the way he does

You've inspired me, I've found a reasonably local roundabout where I might try this. Going for it in a few weeks.

Me driving in my car minding my own business. “Who cracked that beer, let’s investigate”

*Opens a can in a roundabout surrounded by traffic and is worried about someone hearing him* 😂

That's very cool. I stealth camped in my youth when i run away from home. You have inspired me again with this stuff.. Great Stealthy Steve...

Thank you, Vinny, for teaching me about stealth camping. This is the kind of thing I dreamt of doing as a kid!

id like to see him try a stealth camping challenge in Portland. challenge: find the closest spot to downtown possible that doesnt have someone in it already

"he's on to me, for sure." this man can turn being a pedestrian into being James Bond. 😆

Trust me bro, you have already become a 1 million subscriber youtuber imo. You have actually increased your sub count alot since I started watching, and your content keeps getting better. I'm in kind of a rut right now so I really needed this video to stay motivated, and it helps to have some kind of goal. You're a life saver man, keep doing what you are doing❤

What a genuinely intriguing human being, you have a great imagination and a by the sounds of it a big heart. If you’d asked me would you ever of watched a man camping in a round about over night I would have never thought so. Cheers Pat 🇦🇺

Steve prepares everything for stealth camping except a back story.

Steve is the perfect embodiment of all of our anxious thoughts, love this guy.

This was the first video I seen of camping with Steve, been a fan for about a year now and I’ve seen every video , ty for the content 😭

This was my 1st Camping with Steve vlog. Im in love ❤

The reflective vests are actually probably the perfect way to hide in plain sight. Sure, you're more visible. But to myself and I'm sure many other people, if I see someone in a reflective vest, I generally just assume they're there on some kind of official business.

I love how in google maps the roundabout is now labeled “Steve Wallis Roundabout” maybe they’ll put up a statue of Steve in the middle. I think this is the best stealth I’ve seen yet. Good job!

Oh come on... I wanna stealth camp aswell so badly now. You sir unlocked a core memory. This takes me back to my childhood : playing games in bushes and forest and stuff. Hiding from nothing but imaginary dange whatever it was. Feeling safe and cosy as long as we would take cover in what was a natural shelter. Of course, I wanna do that again ! That's awesome. Also being a responsible adult sucks.

Success! That looked like fun! Glad you had a good night sleeping in a roundabout. I’ve often thought about hunkering down in the landscaped bushes and growth that cites have at interstate off/on ramps. I’ve noticed some thick lush bushes etc in a lot of places like that. It always seems best if there’s an overpass. 😊

Imagine walking past a bush and it cracks open a cold one

As I am on the verge of homelessness at the moment, watching this man somehow eases my anxiety about the whole situation. I'm not sure how I came across this channel but thank you for doing this. It really has changed my perspective about my life and how I can turn this into adventure instead.of a tragedy

What a humble guy! So glad I came across this channel!

This is the coolest place you have tried! Good thrill/scare with the patrol guy.

That was nice of them to put the boulders around the roundabout to protect you Steve.

A great example of someone who is obviously way way too anxious, while also being way less anxious than I would be. Good stuff

I love seeing genuine American outdoor videos it's all about escaping the grid

I once read a story as a kid about a man who lived like Robinson Crusoe on a roundabout, all straggly hair and torn clothes - the traffic was so busy he could never get off it. The middle of it was like a lost world, strange animals and religious artefacts. Wish I could remember what it was called...

"I do struggle to come up with stealth camping meals that I can actually fit into a backpack and prepare in something like a roundabout quietly without fire exploding all over the place" - hands down the greatest sentence ever spoken.

Haha love how paranoid Steve is, is acting like he'll go to prison if he gets caught

The high vis is a stroke of genius

One rule to share why movement at dusk is important - human eyesight is at its worst functional level during this time because of the dynamic light range. Think of a camera trying to show extreme highlight with extreme shadows where it starts to have trouble. If the sun is setting it's still bright enough to cause a low level "sun blindspot" which makes looking into darker areas harder because you're compensating for the brighter light. In summary, a person will take in less visual information than other times of the day or night. This is also the time of day where nobody can see through your windows in your car, even if it's perfectly clean. At night the lack of light does make it more difficult but the eyes are fully compensated at this point. There is also less activity for someone to discern from and people are normally roused to automatic suspicion during late night as well. But not during dusk when people are still shopping or just on their way home from work etc. Something taught to me and I've observed its use as well.

I wanna see the version where he fights the community safety police in an epic standoff for control of the most perfect roundabout ever.

I'm so glad I got recommended this. This was the funniest thing I've seen in a while. I'm dying thinking of a cop walking in on this dude eating a turkey wrap talking to a camera hiding in a bush.

8 Million people have watched this and learned something. Some perhaps must live like this out of dire necessity. What if we all lived like this out of choice? We have effectively shut down the system that is abusing us. And it is “illegal” to do this now but what would they come up with to make us all go back to work for them? Something to think about while we indulge our fantasies watching Steve! Thanks Steve Wallis! You scratch an itch!
