Cycling around Iceland in Winter.
How dumb do you have to be to think of something like that?
How much dumber to consider it an idea?
Pretty dumb, possibly the dumbest.
Which is why this expedition appears in
Dumbest Ideas of the Month — December 2025.

This is the stupidest thing I've seen anyone do this week. Absolute masterpiece 10/10.
Couldn't stop watching.. cycled there last summer, going back this summer, wouldn't dream of doing it in December… ouch!
Did you have tires with no studs all the trip ?
freaking brilliant
Absolute nut job, well done on completing the trip. You suffered through some dark times.
Just goes to show that you can literally do whatever you want in this world. Absolute freedom. This video gave me an amazing feeling of wanderlust, thanks for posting!
I started watching this thinking, “Well this is a terrible idea.” Five minutes later I’m sitting here impressed. Hats off to you!
Welcome to Iceland. You could have knocked up on anyone door no prob, but you made it awkward. We will help and feed you if you are having problems😂
Magnificent!!
Dumb ? Perhaps.
Suicidal ? Without a doubt.
Survival skills ? Phenomenal.
Choice of music ? Impeccable.
Final verdict ? Lunatic masochist.
But you are f**ing insane. I love you take care 😂❤
A few years ago in the middle of dark winter, I(an icelander) was driving with my mother and we came across a japanese guy named Hero, I think his name was that was walking in the freezing cold and snowy side of the road. We gave him a ride, and afterwards laughed in bewilderment about what on earth he was doing out there and thinking, doing such a ridiculous thing… it was definitely memorable~
Wool, wool and more wool.
… and you picked the right music 😂 Brilliant – Takk!
Last idiot is not born yet
Stupid shitt. Hope people will not be go imitate this and think it is okey to enter people sheds and farmhouses with out permission. 😡
I’m surprised you managed to cycle all the way around the country in 21 days and stay alive at this time of year. Well done, brave man. Were you not using studded tires on your bicycle? If not, then this is an even greater feat of endurance. I laughed when you were looking at a map on the phone, “the road is supposed to be impassable, I don't know what that means“ Let's just do it, LOL! – “impassable“ – impossible to travel along or over. – Glad you made it. – Best regards from Iceland.
You where lucky the weather warning didn't cover the north east corner where you where at
Dude I'm born and raised in Iceland so i know the difficulty of the task. We'll done respect 👊 also love your pick of music
I remember having a argument with this dude when he was doing this and calling him insane, crazy in the coconut… Good to see I was right lol
Well done 👍
