- Today we find out if Cambry's chair can go on a Safari! Check out the Bill and Melinda Gates Annual Letter here!: www.inflcr.co/SH1jf And thanks to Bill and Melinda for sponsoring this video. We knew we were headed to Africa, so we decided to check out this electric wheelchair mod called the Firefly. Its super expensive, but if it helped Cambry get around on rough roads and dirt trails, it would be totally worth it! Come with us as we check out this strange wheelchair contraption. Spoiler alert... its a bit over priced for what it can accomplish: amzn.to/2w7nHAg But it is really good in specific scenarios.
Check out Dan's video here! • Our First African Safari!

Cambry wheel chair has gone through so many mods since meeting Zack
Sheldon Manson *Zack
Is there a video where they explain why she needs a wheelchair?
@@DrCJones she was in a horse accident while riding years ago
Ouch :/ is it permanent damage?
@@DrCJones shes been in the chair sense she was at least a teenager so probably is

@Cole Salmans idk bro ive just watched his phone videos were he makes the scratche test etc. But im sorry for not knowing this im more activ on his channel now and huge respect to him what a real man🤝
Obi wan: "That's why I'm here"
@@elia_d_chad5648 that's his wife not his girlfriend.
GALAXY Z FLIP!!!
@Cole Salmans yeah i watched it
7:30 you can see the exact moment Cambry thought Jerry was about to say something about her weight but my boi actually scienced his way out of it. So funny.
Diego A. Lol you’re right 😂
Diego A. Also his name is Zach
ItsSarus fair enough closer than Jerry though
😂 yeah
In 5 years Zack’s garage is going to be filled with different wheelchair mods
This week, we got a rocket powered wheelchair so my wife can go up the hill
So it'll be her garage...
Like iron mans suits
Foreshadowing
Zach for Zachary
Bill Gates sponsored Jerry...
Good people always come together for good work...
His name is Zach, not Jerry. Edit: It's Zack
More like Stephen Hawking
@@nemiesis Jerry Zach?
Welcome to 2020
Expected a vpn company or something when you said "this video is sponsored by:" not freaking BILL GATES
Soon: This video is sponsored by gates vpn.
Right! I'm happy for him
Alex Eder bill gates, the dude that wants vaccinate the whole world and decimate population...
Broxine Oh no, we got an anti vaxxer over here
hqchannel yes, and im proud of it 💪
6:30 MY HEART.
I love how they're always trying out new things for her wheelchair or making new accessibility items for her. It's great!
Thanks for coming to Kenya.❤️
Karibu tena Jerry
Now we say haina noma hehe hehe
Remember, every 60 seconds in Africa, a minute passes. Please donate.
hope you can find your mustache
I’ll donate $10
Jamal said that.....
You're everywhere man
You again
Holy shit, i was sceptical at first but this video has confrimed my suspicions. I was on the same flight as you guys flying into kenya (my dad works for the UN over there) i didnt want to approach you as you were clearly doing your own thing and and i also wasnt 100% sure it was you. But this video confirms it. Thats so cool. Glad to see you all had a great time and welcome to Kenya.
That's awesome
I adore how much your love for each other translates to camera so well.
Zach: "I didn't know hakuna matata was a real word it means no worries"
*Literally the lyrics in the song* : "it means no worries for the rest of your days"
Rotten Potato That’s not the point... he means he didn’t know it was a real word that meant “no worries”
A swahili word disney stole and copyrighted it.
Rotten 🥔 is really a Rotten 🥔 🤭
When he said that, I was like : No shit Sherlock!
Do you know how to say coconut in Swahili?
6:29 I almost got a heart attack while watching...
Yes me 2, so scared for a second there, im sure If she would have 5ilted in, Jerry would have stopped at nothing to get her out :-S
TheFilledk who is Jerry
@@pky0ass ikr. His name is Zach.
TheFilledk who’s Jerry?
Monkey *scratches back
Zack: back is back , and it is scratchable
Alexander Aluwaliya And it breaks
I read it in his voice!! 😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol
Nothing more priceless than her happiness. God bless both
Oh man I really thought she was going in that pool...
I'm surprised she was able to miss the pool. I wonder if that $2000 piece of garbage is IP rated. Probably not.
So did I 😱
CalQaida wtf
I was going to 👍 the comment but it was at 427 and no true motorhead would change that especially since she was on a speed run around a pool on safari
I wish Bill and Melinda Gates sponsored my life. Hakuna Matata would have been my motto
yes
welp
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I feel so happy when you are both snap and said “let’s get started” so cool 😊
These adaptive videos are just amazing. Thanks you for sharing these new ideas
You guys are amazing, I'm Kenyan and I am a great fan. Thank you for the awesome work you're doing to help in our communities here in Kenya.
Question does that adaptive motorised electric wheel scratches at level 6 with deeper grooves at level 7?????
That's great. I had a good laugh at that one.
It's metal so it lower
You made me laugh hahaha
Probly right, for sure like level 4-5
I see jokes like this everywhere and I don't get it😂
You two are wonderful human beings and you just fill me with hope for humanity!
I wish you peace and prosperity!
Zack is a perfect man and always talks to his wife very softly, wishes your little family good luck and makes videos sharing techniques you know with everyone in the world.
Zach: 'I'm going to have to change that front tire very soon. 😂😂
Jerry’s girl: *doing wheelies & burnouts* Jerry: okay that’s pretty cool, lemme try
Zack*
Rishi Bappanad shut tf up please his Chanel says it’s jerry so we call him jerry
Awesome piece of kit for the chair...I could see one improvement being a better front tire with some more grip. Looks like Cambry's having a blast with it.
Literally every other tech tuber
S20!

“Bill and Melinda Gates”
My brain: Bill + ....Gates = Bill Gates
My mind was blown
Quite ignorant to not know the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.
55bn $ that is the amount of Money the foundation has raised so far.
The Bill and Melinda Gates foundation is really a blessing.
Peopl should respect Bill Gates for how generous and humble he is.
He donated billions upon billions of dollars himself and why not.
With his wealth you will never feel the difference. Not donating or using th money in a senisble way is just vanity.
No one has use for more than 1 or 2 billion $. You can only buy so many Yachts and Mansions.
@@1337Jogi If only every other billionaire would be forced to help in the same way, the world would be a much better place.
3521이병욱 how’s that ignorant
Love how Cambry has become way more confident when appearing in Zack's videos
I've had a Firefly for about 3 years and sadly, it is expensive but it's one of the cheapest devices around. Check out the Triride or Batec, I think they are far better but more than double the price of the FireFly so for me, not worth it. You can wrap ankle weights to the horizontal bar/clamp, one on either side and that massively increases the front wheel traction. It's seriously night and day on how the Firefly works.
Why don't you still have it or do you still have it? I fail to see why they are so expensive but that is a different issue. Cheers.
I JUST LOVE YOUR CHEMISTRY ❤️
Karibu Kenya. Thanks for coming around.
I never thought he would come here aki hehe
Wish i could meet him but alikua coast
Just see this because of “the WW2 bomber wreckage”....both of you really show the world how to love each other. This is the biggest lesson that i got from all of your video, thumb up and so much love for both of you ❤️
Cambry is happy...she has more joy and laughter than before...I think Jerry is doing a good job as a husband!
0:24 So we currently in Kenya, in the (MIDDLE) of Africa.
Central African Republic: Am I a joke to you?
They are falling in love.
Its just one of the best i guess
George Costarica George your mom must be so proud.
Lol when he said that I was like huh? It's so east.
2:03 Kambry is right. She should wear a Helmet. The whole contraption although looking cool, yet it appears to have a tendency to topple while doing tighter turns.
That's fricken awesome man...I love that you have a pure heart . A real man. We need more people like you
Really educational video guys. Cambry it's really nice to see you come out of your shell over time. You are a lot more relaxed on camera. Huge respect to you both. Bill for president I reckon!
I just love how well zach treats his wife
Batteries don't store near as much energy as gas tanks. Gas is tens of times denser. Electric motors are just much more efficient. And maybe try with less throttle when slippery. :D
trckojr and lean a little bit more to the front
Energy density means nothing if it’s not 1:1 with the machine because otherwise it becomes wasted potential energy. Electrical energy is more efficient when obtained from a green energy source such as solar. This where fossil fuel fail as an energy source because it isn’t renewable or reusable.
@@anandcheruvu963 depending on how stable the person in the wheelchair is, leaning forward isn't a good idea because thay have to push back a lot with their arms (Cambry might can) some even have a belt to keep them in the seat. But yeah of course bringing a bit more weight to the front helps
Efficient? Lmao no. Producing energy based cars and motors does way more damage to the environment
trckojr just came from engineering explained's too?
Small suggestion for you. You might want to see if you can find a tire that has more tread on it/ like say a off road kind for that tire size and see if that helps with the overall grip. Another idea would be to add some weight to the front directly above the tire on the shaft itself. (Provided the frame can support it safely.) Its quite possible those two ideas would help cancel/stop the burnout action Cambry's experiencing and possibly allow for better overall grip and handling.
This is amazing. I love the change in videos. Just the occasional one off is fun
Can't wait for your next trip in Kenya to actually meet you...
Love from Kenya...
🇰🇪
I love how Cambry did a burn out with the electric set up on the front of her wheelchair that was awesome!
Congratulations! I'm disabled and have been looking into these too, I can walk but just can't go too far I use a four wheel walker, I want one! Because it's hard being crippled & going outdoors!
You guys are pretty amazing it makes me smile to see what you do for each other
WELCOME TO KENYA. HOPE WE MEET IN NAIROBI
Cambry's so anxious to get started, she snaps ahead of Zack!
I don’t understand why would anyone dislike your videos! We love you guys 🌹
I like the way you give us maximum explanation or details that you are presenting us.Thanks for your great effort.
With the wheelchair on tough terrain going backwards might work better
Yes... Bigger wheels go first. It will work inshallah... Good one bro.
And up hills as the power wheel will now be pushing and not pulling.
Callum Saint Going backwards on tough terrain could easily cause a person to fall backwards and seriously injure themselves. Of course they could wear a helmet, but that wouldn’t prevent other injuries that could happen.
Its GIBBER Using that technique on smoother terrain would probably be helpful, because one could lean forward to transfer their weight to the drive wheel for more traction.
Tat2Dragons exactly that. I think that’s what I was trying to say. 😅 well said.
4:42 that's geothermal energy....😁...and we are able to harvest it
No it's not. It's just a sealed cave under the earth which you can pump surplus of energy in in form of extra air, then release the air through turbines and get some energy when it's needed.
Zack and Cambry ... simply amazing!
Welcome to Nairobi Kenya Jerry ....so so excited youv come to kenya 💯💯💯
5:14 Me trying to be successful in life. XD But when can I come ride this again...
8:35
* The first time I have ever heard a music on Jerry's video *
SUPER SCIENCE BD Who is jerry his name is zack

Me: Wutt-how ? now I am confused !
After seeing his Instagram profile
Me: My whole life was a lie ! His name actually is *Zack Nelson*
@@md.siambhuiyan7432 Jerry is the name of Zack's grandfather.
SUPER SCIENCE BD haha
Jerry rig is a term
Every time you upload a video of both of you, it's always so cute. Such a wholesome relationship!
You guys are great. Keep it up!
8:08 I can only imagine how much fun that was
9:38 if me and my friend were insects. 😂
Great video. It's inspiring to see people with mobility issues getting out into the world and doing amazing things.
So glad you finally motorized yourself! Ive been suggesting it on Instagram for some time now. Treat yourself girl! Roll on!!
Nice ride 👍❤️
Congrats for being sponsored by B&M !
You are one of the most awesome talented CZcamsr and person I have seen on CZcams. Amazing.
Cambry is so lucky having Zach by her side and helping her with the coolest ideas.
Hi, I have a firefly attachment for my wheelchair. I can't self propel so I am completely reliant on it or another person. A few things that I have found that improve its performace off-road. 1. you can get an off-road tire for the front wheel that has better traction. 2. I found messing around with the axle on my wheelchair and the angles of the attachment improved how easily I could climb hills. 3. If all else fails I can go up pretty steep hills backwards. Thanks for talking about flying with it. I've had mine for 2 years and I've been too scared to fly with it. Sophie
If you add weights to the front wheel it should also greatly improve the traction performance.
Wow Jerry thats Actually awesome! Loved it. Btw there are no scratches here this time......
Thanks you for such awesome videos man @jerryrigeverything
Chintakunta Sai Vamshi Who is jerry his name is zack
@@zachary456 zack nelson is his real name,but his youtube screen name is Jerry,as you can see,the channel name itself is "Jerry rig everything".so,no issues.peace✌️
Karthik Ram no his grandfather name is Jerry that why he named it that
@@zachary456 yes,but as in one video of electroboom,he calls him jerry🤷🏻♂️any way no issues
Karthik Ram I just get anointed when people mess up names
Like I hate it when people call me Zach instead of Zachary
I love videos with Cambry!
Jerry is literally an angel send from heaven to bring joy
For anyone that ever has a chance to go on a safari: do it. It's amazing. It's expensive but 10000000% worth it.
So my favourite CZcamsr was right here in my country..had I known beforehand, I'd have offered to be your tour guide.
Futa hio sasa
I've watched Jerry's videos and followed channel for a long time. Fun to see him here.
So happy you came to my Country.
I watch this channel
Zack's nightmare: Scratches at level 2, Deeper grooves at level 3.
7:30 you almost got slapped there. 😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
BIG RESPECT FOR YOU MAN!
Man!! I love this couple❤️❤️
Hey everyone buy some merch it will support him so he can make even better videos
Edit: I love the circuit board design
I noticed that the hair wasn't real but i still tried to clean it off..
Ya .... like they need more money .....
Wish I had the cash to vacation in Africa; or friends to pay for it!
@@TheJimbob1603 me too
buy it if u want it, not to give him money.
he already has a shit ton of money, enough for him to live comfortably for the rest of his life without making a yt video again
@@KnightCx you are probably right but I just love seeing him do this stuff with that money it is great seeing someone who actually cares about stuff that some people don't even think about
I like the videos where Cambry is involved much better!
I truly love your videos! You both are just great - keep up the fantastic work! Greetings from Germany :)
Yeah I was a little worried when I saw Kambry in Kenya. So much kudos!!😁😁
"Now hopefully it's time to get up close with some real animals"
Monkeys: "Am I a joke to you?"
Well that's an awesome gadget to turn a wheel chair into a tricycle
Remember, electric tricycle!!!!!
There's hand powered trike add-ons too, where you have a regular old bike chain and gear, except the pedals are little handles, and up near the steering. Might be a good compromise for other users interested in a trike conversion, since there's no battery and motor weight, but you still get gearing to amplify your force which regular pushrims certainly do not do.
@@kaitlyn__L that sounds cool
The best thing is you guys had tons of fun.
9:26 ~ Cambry's gesture is priceless
$2,000 isn't expensive when it gets you independence
FRANK ROBY she said that you need someone to come along because it can’t handle some terrain
Except for that this doesn't get you independence.
I'd almost say get a thing like that that doesn't have a motor - just two bigger swivelly wheels. Then she can still use her arms to push on the back wheels (which won't slip) and actually have independence.
Vousie V my man is riding a PlasmaCar
Mind you, it's a lot of money on a disability pension, plus it still needs someone to assist fairly often so fails on that mark anyway.
@Grass Blocker ehh it's like 99% independence. In the kind of chair Camry has you can do wheelies and stuff, as she talked about in the video. Some people have posted videos of going backwards up stairs and stuff in this kind of chair, though that needs some intense strength (making horizontal wheel movement translate into upward force up the edge of the stair, bad conversion rate of force due to angles).
This type of power assist unit is mostly to give you extra range, so you're not pushing yourself manually, and have a bigger front wheel that won't get stuck in ground cracks etc - there's also big non motorised third wheels available like the Freewheel that do a lot to make pushing manually easier on rough terrain, in your regular posture without handlebars or a battery.
Depending on your condition if you fall out of the chair might be fucked, but plenty of people have also posted videos like "here's how I get back into my wheelchair on the floor with my paralysis" so that's not strictly impossible either. The main ways you might actually need someone else's help are if you can't find a dropped kerb or get a wheel stuck and can't manoeuvre out at all, like she demonstrated in the video (again caused by the extra battery weight though, she said she'd have been fine without it).
Even then it's like, asking a passerby rather than needing a nurse all the time though. Certainly me and lots of my friends are Camry's age with a similar chair and live independently going outside. Honestly as the video says, the extra weight of the motor was a detriment on wet terrain. So an unpowered third wheel with no battery weight would have probably been more accessible than this motorised unit, for going outside alone. People use the Freewheel to go like hiking and stuff, it adds hardly any extra weight so then you only need to worry about the gradient as if it were paved.
"This video is sponsored by- 'me: please don't be raid'- Bill Gates" me: Wait, what?!?! Bill stinking Gates!?!

Best thing in this video was the background music, music of nature and animals, total symphony

Hey JRE,you are so grateful with very cool heart, Good luck and God bless you.
2:53 U know there are hospitals in Kenya? Great Video though!
This might be the coolest or the dumbest thing I have done 🤣🤣🤣
So I've seen a few of your videos and I came across this, and I also use a power wheelchair I'm basically a quadriplegic. It's really cool to see you adapting things for your wife, like the elevator was awesome! My parents are pretty ingenuitive and have made some pretty cool things but nothing quite that awesome. Anyway keep up the good work.
Very good video I would love to see how you were Jerry rig the fire fly to work better! I have looked into this device/mechanism before and I’ve always been put back by the price, It is/was out of reach for most of us. Thank you again for continuing to share your adventure with us, keep going just as you are.
