INTRODUCING STRIFE LIFE

Restrictions and community guidelines have always restricted us. Removing videos, flagging accounts and banning us. Now we have a place to go hard without holding anything back, our new STRIFELIFE patreon page. Kicking it off with our infamous Gold Coast video, removed off YouTube after almost 180,000 views. We receive countless messages about this video and we have found a way to bring it back

STRIFELIFE is a page for our adventures, raw and unfiltered. From now on this will be the only place to access our major projects, starting with a 7 part documentary dropping next week. If you sign up during the first documentary series, you will have locked in cheap membership for life. On the release of the next project, prices will go up. Stay tuned, we can’t wait to show you what we have planned

We walked in the rainforest on an overgrown disused trail. Spider webs tingled our faces every few steps we’d walk through them, mud puddles and ferns and bush covered in dew soaked our shoes and jeans, but even at midnight towards the end of winter it’s always warm enough in the rainforest.

A conveyor belt coming from out of the hill stretches out above the valley, and drops coal onto the pile below, who knows from how deep in the earth it’s all come from. We climbed some barbed fences and walked along the belt. The heap of coal funnels in the middle and goes down into a train tunnel below, filling the buckets underneath.

We climbed around the metal braces hanging by our hands over the drop below getting a good sense of the height. My friend @rch1ved took this image on an old half broken medium format film camera, of me laying on the catwalk of the conveyor belt looking at the camera, the mine and train tracks below me.

We left. My friend, in front of me, tangled his clothes on the barbs climbing back over the fence. the same moment I saw a flash of light to my left. I could see the light of a torch coming from the conveyor tunnel that descends into the mountain.
I didn’t want to stress him so I said nothing, but the light was getting brighter and closer and eventually I told him someone was coming. He decided that his best option was to purposely fall off the fence landing on his side and ripping away from the barbs. We ran back up our trail and watched the man search for us from the bush.
