What's going on Coyote Pack?
And welcome back to another exciting episode of Base Camp.
And boy, do we have a good episode planned for you today.
- Ooh boy, what is it?
- Oh man, I can't get into that yet.
First we need to look at the artwork.
- Oh. - What?
- Coyote Pack artwork, 'cause we got
some epic stuff on this episode.
- First of all-- - Oh yeah, we sure do.
- I love this one from Heather.
That is Coyote as a coyote.
- Oh, it even says that.
- Yes, how cool it that?
- Thought you made that up.
- Let me see.
- Coyote as a coyote, isn't that sweet?
- Is that a black widow hanging off your hat?
- It is, a black widow hanging off my hat
and it says, heart spiders, 'cause I love spiders.
I guess.
Thank you Heather so much for this amazing digital art,
it is definitely gonna go up there on the wall.
This right here is another one of my favorites,
check it out, double sided snapping turtle picture.
- Oh man.
- Aligator snapper on one side, common snapper on the other.
- That's fantastic. - You know,
it almost looks like a bathroom tile.
I think, you know what, maybe you could tile
your new bathroom all in snapping turtles.
- Or, if you go to the Brave Wilderness store
right now and you order some bathroom tiles,
you can choose from common snapping turtles
or aligator, no, we don't have those?
- No, hold you horses.
- No, no tiles?
Maybe at some point guys, get excited.
But, speaking of ceramics, check this out from Jillian.
- That's amazing.
- This is amazing.
This is a turtle city.
- [Mario] What? - Look at that.
That is a sea turtle.
She made this in her advanced placement ceramics class.
- AP ceramics.
- AP ceramics, that represents how we all depend on nature,
specifically the oceans, to keep our planet healthy.
- Nice.
So cool Jillian. - Fantastic.
- Thank you so much, this is also going
to go up there on the Base Camp shelf.
- Oh wow, this is solid.
This is like legit pottery.
- Yeah.
- This is like kiln dried and everything.
- Well, since it's summer I'm guessing you're out of school,
but hopefully you got an A+ on this project.
If you didn't, send me your teacher's name
and I will put in an extra good word for you
in next year's ceramic classes.
- That is awesome, sweet.
- That will definitely end up on the Base Camp shelf.
All right guys, so for today's episode we're actually
gonna do something a little bit different.
- Really?
- Now, a lot of people have been writing in the comments
and asking us to review, of all episodes,
the Big Pig episode.
- I love Big Pig.
- Everybody loves Big Pig.
- It's a good one.
- Nobody knew that he was gonna become
an international super star, did you?
- I didn't know he was gonna get so big.
- I did. - literally, literally.
- Hey, Big Pig if you're watching, I knew,
I knew you were a star.
- He's a super star.
We thought little G was gonna be the star,
and technically little G is still a star,
but Big Pig became a super star.
So, what we decided to do is actually
travel back down to Florida.
- That's right.
- To revisit Big Pig.
Now, instead of reviewing an episode today,
we'll pop up a couple shots here from the initial encounter
where we stopped at McDonald's, we got some ice cream,
we visited with Little G, and then of course--
- [Mark] A recap.
- [Coyote] Big Pig ended up
eating the ice cream cones, didn't he?
- Yeah, he did.
- Right.
- So, is that the surprise?
We're gonna eat ice cream, ice cream party today?
- No, no, the surprise is that we went
back down to Florida and we actually revisited
Big Pig for his birthday.
- Well I know that, but none of us have seen
that video, I mean we haven't even cut that yet.
- Well no, that's what we're gonna debut right now.
- Oh.
- We, the editors and I have worked together.
You guys haven't seen it yet.
- You cut the video?
- We cut the video.
- Oh.
- You guys were there to film it, but we have cut it.
We are returning to Big Pig to celebrate
his Big Pig birthday.
- Oh man, that's awesome. - Nice.
- Yeah.
- This is a video Mario and I have never seen.
This is gonna be great. - Nobody's seen.
And we're not gonna comment over it,
what we're gonna do is just go straight to the video
so everybody can enjoy it for the first time.
You guys ready?
- Yeah, let's do this.
- All right, let's roll the footage.
- That's what this video is.
- This is it.
- I wondered why this, is has like no title.
- No title. - All right.
- Secret footage. - Here we go, ready?
- Party!
Who likes to party?
I like to party.
Who likes to party?
This guy likes to party.
How about that guy in the back seat?
Do you like to party?
- Oh yeah.
- Oh Man, we love parties.
And today we are VIP at a very special birthday party.
I know a lot of you guys write in and say,
Coyote will you show up at my birthday party?
Well guys, today is the day that we are
showing up for somebody's birthday.
But first, we have to stop off
and get some ice cream, and the party supplies.
All right, we have made it.
- You know where.
- Not to the party, but where we're
gonna pick up the ice cream.
All right, you order.
Extra large, extra large.
- Does everyone want vanilla?
- Yeah, yeah.
- Thank you.
- Let's see what they look like.
- Here it is.
Oops, dropped one.
Get that for you.
- Here it is, you guys asked for it.
And now we have the S Z E chuan sauce.
- [Mark] Sachwan.
I don't know if that's gonna be good on
a ice cream cone, but I'm gonna try it out.
Here we go.
- That's not bad, Szechuan sauce on ice cream.
How's your ice cream?
- Almost gone.
- Melting quick huh?
- Yeah.
- I'm gonna eat as much as I can down to the nub,
and I'm gonna save it for our special friend.
And I have a feeling, at this point,
if you remember the last time we visited McDonald's
here in Homestead, Florida, and then showed up
somewhere with ice cream, you probably have
a good idea as to whose birthday party it is today.
Stay tuned guys, this is about to get epic.
All right guys, what you got going here?
- Well, you don't show up to a birthday party
without the proper attire, so everybody gets a hat,
and everybody gets a party, what do you call these?
- [Coyote] Those are kazoos.
Oh nice.
- Can I wear my hat and this?
- [Coyote] Yeah, yeah, yeah, you should.
- Aw, it doesn't squelch.
- [Coyote] Oh no, you bought the ones that don't make noise?
Oh well, it's for the visual, that makes sense.
- Make the noise they make, ready?
(rooster crowing)
- Right?
- Pretty close, pretty close. - Close, close.
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh.
- [Mark] Hey. - Not yet.
All right, I'm sure a lot of you have guessed
who we're here to see today.
The one, the only, Big Pig.
It is officially his third birthday,
we made a special trip down here
to Homestead, Florida, to celebrate.
So, if you guys are ready, let's head in there
and get up close with the birthday boy.
- No! - [Mark] Come on.
- No! - [Mark] I'm hungry.
- It's for Big Pig.
All right guys, it's time to arrive at the party.
Looks like some of Big Pig's friends are already here.
A whole bunch of chickens and roosters.
Come on guys, in we go.
- [Mark] Man, a lot of people got invited to this--
Ooh, there he is.
- There he is. (singing)
The birthday boy himself, Big Pig.
Watch out, he might eat your fingers.
- [Mark] Oh he's hungry.
- Oh buddy, you look hungry.
Can I scratch your little head?
Let me see.
Oh yeah, he's like, no I'll eat your fingers though.
All right guys, so before we get Big Pig
his birthday cake, here buddy check it out.
You are three years old, give it a little sniff.
Oh, it smells good, doesn't it?
Now, this is a specially baked cake
that has healthy ingredients for the pig.
Do not--
Oh, hey, no, no this is, not yet.
We didn't sing the birthday song yet.
The chickens are already trying to get the cake,
Big Pig's trying to eat the cake.
This cake is completely healthy, we have nothing
to worry about, pigs, for the most part,
can eat anything but this is all made
from vegetables and deliciousness.
You guys ready to sing the birthday song?
- [Mario] Yup. - [Mark] Let's do it.
- All right, hey Elijah, come on in here.
Let me introduce you guys to Elijah.
You are officially the keeper of
the one and only Big Pig, aren't you?
- Yeah.
- This is your pig, and you've been raising him.
He is three years old, he's incredibly healthy,
and today we're gonna celebrate his birthday, right?
- Yup.
- Are you ready to sing the birthday song?
- Ah, the birthday song?
- Yeah, you know, the birthday song.
The Big Pig birthday song.
Here, I'll start it, and then you just
kind of chime in, right?
- [Mark] Kick us off, ready, I'll count us down, ready?
- Okay, wait, hold on, hold on,
I wanna get out the GoPro camera too,
so that we can see you guys singing as well.
Let me fire this up here.
Okay, and we are officially rolling.
- [Mark] Okay.
- We got you guys there in the background, right?
- Are you guys ready, I'm gonna count us in.
- Okay, here we go.
- One, two, three.

- Any wish you wanna make for Big Pig?
- A happy birthday.
- Woo!
All right, well to officially feed the pig
we also need to remove the candle
and the little happy birthday thing.
So, can you guys do that for me?
- [Elijah] Yeah.
- All right Elijah, get that off there, lick the frosting.
- Wait, wait, are we going to cut any pieces for us?
- Ah, well why don't we let, well why don't
we let Big Pig have the first bite.
- [Mark] Okay.
- And then we'll see what happens from there.
Okay, so we'll all share,
everybody will get a piece of cake.
But, if you guys are ready, I'm gonna
pull my fingers back just a little bit here.
- [Mark] Okay.
- And I'm gonna actually enter
the enclosure with the Big Pig.
- [Mark] Okay. - This is a little risky.
- Do you think it's a good idea?
- I don't know, but we're gonna find out.
Oh buddy, okay.
I'm officially in the enclosure with the Big Pig.
And I am going to let him have some cake.
Oh, oh, there you go, there you go buddy.
Oh no, it fell over, hold on.
I gotta watch my fingers.
Oh no, it's covered in dirt.
Big Pig no.
Oh no, this is not going according to plan.
Oh no.
- [Mark] You gotta help the pig,
there's frosting everywhere.
- Oh no, Big Pig.
- [Mark] You gotta have some cake too.
- Oh buddy, happy birthday.
Here let me, let me get a piece out here for you guys too.
I gotta watch my fingers.
There you go. - I don't know if I want it.
- Here you go, anybody?
- [Mark] You got a cake on the lens there.
- Oh man, this did not exactly go according to plan, did it?
Oh, we got the chickens in on it.
Big Pig's having a blast.
Happy birthday buddy.
Well, it never seems to go according to plan
when we're hanging out with the Big Pig, does it?
Last time, we gave him an ice cream cone,
and this time, the cake, I've scraped all the frosting off
so that it didn't have dirt on it.
Yeah, there you guys, get in there.
Oh man, oh Big Pig, yum, yum, yum.
Oh boy.
Here Big Pig, let me get a little bite of that there.
Let's see.
- [Mark] Oh, you ate it.
- (mumbling) from it.
That's delicious, you don't want any?
- No.
- No?
- [Mark] Come on Elijah, you don't want any?
- I'm fine.
- Let me get one more little piece here.
Here Mario. - Yeah.
- [Mark] Have a bite.
- For me? - Yeah, for you.
There you go. - Oh, oh man.
Is that chocolate, or is that dirt?
- [Coyote] Ah, there may be a little dirt.
- Dirt.
- [Coyote] Dirt wrapped in there, so.
- Here Mark, you gotta share.
Sharing is caring dude. - I don't want it.
- Let me get this, look down here Big Pig.
- [Elijah] And the chicken's eating it.
- [Mark] Here, ready?
- Mm, yummy.
- Was it good?
Everybody joined in the party didn't they?
Well, it didn't exactly go according to plan
because I dropped the cake in the dirt.
But, Big Pig seemed to enjoy it.
This little tiny chicken definitely enjoyed it.
And, we all got to celebrate Big Pig's third birthday.
I'm Coyote Peterson, be brave.
Stay wild.
We'll see ya on the next location.
(snorting)
Uh oh.
(laughing)
What was that?
- Big Pig, Big Pig doesn't like his hat anymore.
(laughing)
Happy birthday Big Pig.
- Oh man.
- How about that.
- That was awesome.
- Well again, it didn't exactly go to according to plan.
- But, you can see what can be made
out of something that we just filmed on the fly.
- Right, camera's just rolling.
- Big pig was, he was looking good.
- Yeah
- I think he, he shed a little bit of weight, Big Pig.
- I don't know about that.
- You know, Big Pig is getting bigger in my opinion.
That pig is constantly growing,
but it was so cool to return to Florida
and visit Big Pig on his birthday.
- Yeah.
- As far as me being able to deliver a cake?
- You kind of fumbled it there.
- Yeah, I kind of fumbled the cake.
Well, what happened is that there was a piece of cardboard
underneath the cake, I didn't realize that Big Pig
was going to grab the piece of cardboard.
So, he actually pulled the cake out of my hands
and the whole thing just went plop, just like that.
- [Mark] And we only had one cake.
- One cake.
- All this effort for one cake.
- Yes.
- That was an expensive cake.
- It was, it was like a $50 cake.
- Yeah.
- No joke, it was like a $50 organic cake.
But, Big Pig loved it, we loved making it.
And hopefully you guys enjoyed that
exclusive footage of Big Pig.
Now, here comes part two of the super, epic surprise.
- Double surprises!
- Ice cream?
- I, no not ice cream.
- Yeah, I'm waiting for someone
to come through the door with a cake.
- No. - Kind of making me hungry.
- It's actually right here, you guys
probably haven't seen it yet.
- Oh. - The Big Pig party t-shirt.
- Yeah, I thought this was just a regular pig.
- Check this out.
- We made this?
- Well, I made this, I had this made.
It is not officially a shirt yet,
but if you guys write in the comment section below,
and you guys all feel like you would wear
a Big Pig party t-shirt, it will become a reality
on the Brave Wilderness store, how cool is that?
- I'd wear one.
- How many people need to wanna buy one?
- I don't know, maybe five?
- Five?
- I don't know, five, 50?
I say five, because I've got the shirt.
- I'll go, I'll go in my office right now
and type in five comments.
- Well, go write five comments.
- Sure.
- Write 500 comments, write 5,000 comments.
Guys, the more comments asking for the Big Pig party t-shirt
the better the chances that it will show up on the store.
- How come Mario and I didn't get one of these?
- Yeah?
- I had this one specially made, I invested
my own money, it's a prototype guys.
- Okay.
- I'd be willing to sell this to you for the right price.
- Of course you would.
- But, we'll negotiate that when the cameras are off.
How much do you love Big Pig?
- I love Big Pig this much.
- How much do you love Big Pig?
- Bigger.
- I love Big Pig as big as you can love a pig.
My favorite pig in the world.
Hopefully you saw this episode buddy.
I don't think he watches YouTube, does he?
- Maybe, maybe we'll go down there with
a little like phone and put the video.
- How's that for an episode?
- Maybe we could have a video of him watching the video.
- Right, like a livestream of Big Pig
watching the Big Pig episode.
- Wow.
- This is getting complex, my brain's getting tired.
All right, I think at that
it's probably time for the outro, isn't it?
I'm Coyote Peterson.
- And I'm Mark Vins. - I'm Mario Decola.
- Be brave.
- Stay wild.
- We'll see ya on the next Base Camp adventure.
- All right.
- Remember, in the comment section,
everybody wants a Big Pig shirt, right?
Big Pig!
- I'm gonna go get some ice cream.
- All right, I want some ice cream too.
