- I just found a ring.
- Can I see?
(dramatic music)
- Where's the fish?
(growling loudly)
(water splashing)
Stupid fish!
(growling loudly)
This fish is fake?
A fake fish?
(gagging loudly)
(spitting violently)
Why would they put a fake fish here, Precious?
(sad violin music)
What's going on guys?
Today we are on location in New Zealand,
and we're being given the opportunity to explore Hobbiton.
The official Lord of the Rings set
where they filmed for the Shire.
- (Mario) So-
- (Coyote) Wow!
- (Mario) Peter Jackson was here.
Frodo was here.
- (Coyote) Frodo was here.
Everybody was here.
They're not here today,
but we're going to go right through that gate
and for the next couple of hours.
We're going to be
exploring and making our own adventure on GoPros,
while the other cameras follow us,
and see what we can find.
- (Mario) Nice!
- (Coyote) It's just like a make your own adventure
sort of adventure.
Sweet!
- (Man 2) A wha- a what?
- A make your own adventure, adventure.
That's why we all have our own cameras.
I'm going to try to Frodo and Bilbo's hobbit hole.
- I'm gonna go look for some critters.
I wonder if there's any geckos or skakes around here?
Too cold for that.
- This place is absolutely huge.
I had no idea that
there were this many hobbit holes,
in the movie.
I'm gonna have to watch it again
because there are quite a few of these.
- All right, I am on a mission.
Find Frodo and Bilbo's hobbit hole.
I think the first thing I need to do is really
understand the lay of the land here.
Look at this bridge.
Beautiful.
And that water wheel is actually functioning.
Now the further I adventure, probably the cooler
the things are that I might find.
Oh here's a weird little trail.
Check this out.
Looks like a good spot for frogs and turtles.
Hmm
Ooh, not sure if this is where I'm suppose to be or not.
How cool.
It's like a little set where they dry flowers.
Wow!
Okay, I'm gonna go meet up with Mark and Mario.
I guess that stays open.
Back through here.
Ha!
Finding and exploring some cool places.
What is that?
(gentle flute music)
Look at this.
You see it?
That's a ring.
(gentle flute music)
That's a Lord of the Rings ring.
For real, just found that in the leaves, in the water.
Holy cow!
Ha!
That is crazy!
Holy mackerel!
I just found a ring!
Oh my gosh!
(laughs) This is crazy!
This is really happening.
I cannot believe this is really happening.
I wonder if they hide them?
They must hide them.
I'm like- I have chills right now.
This is like unbelievable.
Hey!
There's Mario.
He's not even gonna believe this.
Oh, you found a cat.
Hi kitty.
- (Mario) that's Frodo's little- little-
- Is that Frodo's cat?
- Yeah!
- Dude!
- What's up?
- You're not gonna believe what I just found!
- (Mario)- Did you find a little gecko or something?
- I found a ring.
(light harp music)
- What?!
- Do you think the people- you think that they hide those?
Around for people to find?
- I don't think so man, I mean-
- (Coyote) They must!
- It's got some weight to it.
- Yeah, It's like the ring, the one ring.
- Dude!
That's an awesome find.
Let me see it.
Let me-
- Well let's go show Mark.
Let's go show Mark.
- Yeah, let's get it to Mark.
- Oh, are those fish?
- Look at this!
These are eels.
- (Coyote) Oh they're eels!
Dude that's cool.
These are so real-looking.
- Little catfish dinner.
Can be right here.
- (Coyote) Oh a fish.
- Yeah.
- (Coyote) A sweet fish.
Man the props on these sets are just amazing!
Everything is like it's magical!
This place is magical.
Have you found Frodo's hobbit hole yet?
- (Mario) Not yet.
- I still can't find it.
All right, we're gonna keep going
looking for Frodo's hobbit hole.
- Oh, wow.
- (Mark) Look at this, like a little mailbox.
Doesn't Work.
All right, let's see what I can get in here.
Little gate.
Oh, here we go.
Ugh.
Oh, goes that way.
Ooh, little chess game.
Let's se what we got going on here.
Oh, those are glued in.
Smart.
- (Coyote) Hey Mark!
- (Mark) Yeah?
- (Coyote) Where you at?
- (Mark) I'm coming back around.
- Here come up into this light real quick.
You're not going to believe this.
- (Mario) We found something pretty cool.
- All right, what do you got?
- You're on the camera?
- I'm rolling.
- I'm gonna see if he believes this.
(harmonious harp music)
- (Mark) What?
- (Coyote) I found that.
(Mark) Where'd you find that?
- So there's a- kinda went off the path of where
you're suppose to be.
- (Mark) Mmhm
- And I was like, "Let me try and find an animal
to put in the video.".
So we went down by the pond area,
and that is a Lord of the Rings ring.
It even has the inscriptions on it.
- (Mario) Let him-hold it.
Just hold it real quick.
It's really heavy.
I think we gotta contact the owners
of the property
because that might be like the real ring.
- (Coyote) Well let's- let's wait.
- Can I see?
It's a pretty big ring.
- (Coyote) Ugh, here you just-
- Mario can you?
Let me- I just want to see it.
- (Mario) Just let Mark see it dude.
Its no big deal.
- I just want to see if it's- I mean it's a huge ring.
I wonder if it even fits.
it doesn't really fit.
I mean.
Ma- Ma- Mario.
- (Mark) Whoa.
Whoa.
- (Mario) Just give it to him.
That's fine.
I don't-
- Hey, all right man, it's- it's- yours.
- It's mine.
My very own.
That one is mine.
- Lets go check out more hobbit holes.
- Honestly, I think
They're just a little bit jealous
that I found a ring,
and they did not find a ring.
- (Mario) This is a really cool set.
I mean these are not replicas.
These are actually like-
- (Mark) This is the real deal.
- (Mario) Structures.
- (Mark) I remember this one from the movie.
- (Mario) Do you want to go inside?
- (Mark) Yeah.
Do you want to see if there's anybody in there?
- I guess we could do this, right?
- (Mark) Mario we can do whatever we want.
Whoa.
=(Mario) Oh, that's pretty sweet.
- (Mark) Its not much in here.
This is definitely- definitely a movie set now.
- (Mario) Yeah, still pretty neat.
- (Mark) All right, let's- let's head back out.
- (Mario) I wonder what else we could find.
Oh wow.
Look at the light.
Mario, look at the Shire.
- (Mario) Ah, it's a beautiful morning today.
- (Mark) It's gorgeous.
Let's head to the top.
Do you want to go on a journey.
- Indeed.
Let's go to the top.
- (Mark) Let's go.
(dramatic fantasy music)
- That'll make a nice staff.
- (Mark) Mario, this way.
(dramatic fantasy music)
- I think this is it.
No admittance
except on party business.
(knocking loudly)
Frodo?
Bilbo?
Anybody home?
(door squeaking)
Wow.
This is cool.
I guess since I'm inside here
might as well get a shot of the ring.
Pretty cool.
I found a ring on the set of the Shire,
and now I am in Bilbo's residence
with the actual ring itself.
(gasps) It's getting hot out.
Sun is (sighs) making its way up into the sky,
and at this point I guess I'll um-
(loud coughing)
I guess I will go back down the hill.
Try to meet up with the guys.
Let's close this back up
and head back down the hill.
- (Mario) I wonder where Coyote is at.
- I have no idea.
Oh wow!
- (Mario) Look at this hobbit hole.
- (Mark) Definitely looks a lot like a movie now.
- [Unison] Look at these guys!
- (Mario) These are guineafowl.
- (Mark) They're actually from Africa.
Pretty cool.
- (singing) Taking off my boots.
Taking off my boots
My boots, my boots.
Taking of my boots.
- (Mario) Do you hear those noises?
- I do.
- We don't need you anymore.
No boots.
Why would you need boots in Hobbiton?
Hobbits don't walk around with boots.
Look at that.
Bare feet and one ring to rule them all.
Hobbits also don't wear hats.
Don't really need that anymore.
(sighs loudly)
Yes.
(whispers quietly) Where's the fish?
Where's the fish?
Where are you fish?
Where's the fish?
(sighs loudly)
I'm going to catch a fish.
Fish, fish, fish.
(water splashing)
(grunts loudly)
(yells) Stupid fish!
(Coyote growling)
- (Mario) Dude this is sweet.
Whoa.
Look at Coyote's stuff.
- (Mark) Where is he?
He left his hat?
He never leaves his hat.
What's going on here?
- (Mario) I don't know man, but you're right.
He never leaves his hat.
- (Mark) Maybe he's gone to the bathroom or something.
I don't know.
- Sweet, sweet, sweet.
Look at me.
(birds squawking)
See, I'm getting cool shots with the ring.
(coughs violently)
- Oh wow!
Look at that!
Look at that door at the top.
That's definitely Bag End.
Let's get up there.
(dramatic horn music)
- I'm not as fast as I used to be.
That's for sure.
- Oh, somethings coming.
Somebody is coming.
Who is that?
Who is it?
They can't haves it.
No one can have it from us.
This one's ours.
Its our very own, precious ring.
Precious ring.
It's ours.
This is the one ring.
(grunts loudly)
- (Mario) The home of Bilbo Baggins.
- [Mark] (knocks loudly) Bilbo?
(knocking loudly)
- (Mario) Look at this pumpkin.
- He's never home when you need him to be home.
- (Mario) Hey Mark, I think we got to go down
to the Green Dragon, and maybe we'll find Coyote.
- Yeah, maybe.
Do you think we should go back and get his hat?
- (Mario) No, he'll get it.
- Oh, there he is.
- (Mario) Hey Coyote.
- Hey bring that ring up here.
- (Coyote) What?
- (Mark) Bring us the ring!
- (Mario) I don't think he could hear you.
- They uh- they're asking for me to bring them ring.
What ring?
- The ring that you found.
- I don't know what you're talking about.
- (Mark) You left your hat!
- (Mario) Dud you left all your gear.
- (Mark) Your stuff's over this way.
Do you want us to get it?
What is up with him?
(screeching loudly)
- (Mario) I don't know, man.
He's acting strange.
Might be cranky.
Sometimes when he's hungry he gets hangry.
- They want it from you, precious.
They are trying to take it.
They wants the ring.
You heard them.
They asked for it.
By name, they said "Bring us the ring!",
but we are not going to do that are we?
No.
We would never bring them the ring.
- Yeah, we didn't eat a very good breakfast this morning
cause we had to get here before sunrise,
but that what it is.
- I think Coyote is hangry.
- (grunts lowly) We must keep moving.
Get out of the Shire.
Leaves the Shire.
Don'ts lets them have it.
Leave.
Leave, now!
(dramatic drums)
Yes!
Leave!
Keep going, my love.
Keep going.
(wailing loudly)
This fish is fake?
A fake fish?
(gagging loudly)
(spitting violently)
Why would they put a fake fish here, precious?
(footsteps)
Where- where did they go?
Where's the hobbits'?
I don't see them which is good.
(coughs) It means they can't takes it from us.
It's mine.
Its all mine.
- Whoa.
What's around the bend?
Mario, it's the edge of the Shire.
- Ah, cool.
- (Mark) We don't go there.
We have to stay in the Shire.
The Shire is safe.
- Well if you ever wanted to go there
just make sure you deep
and go in groups.
- You've got it now.
You got your precious.
It's your own.
I don't know that this is such a good idea though.
You know that you loves it.
You found it.
It came back which means it's yours precious.
Its yours!
(screams angrily)
(intense string music)
- What are you doing dude?
Shh!
I think I hear someone coming.
- It's just us here.
- I think there's riders.
Wait they stopped.
Let's hurry, lets hurry.
Come on.
- (Mario) All right, buddy.
Whatever you say.
- Riders are out.
Got to get to the Green Dragon before the riders get us.
- (Mario) First it was Coyote.
Now, it's Mark.
Super weird.
Running around.
- Mario, hurry.
The music's playing.
Let's go, that means people are eating already.
- (Mario) Hang on man.
Don't worry they'll be enough food for you.
There he goes off to eat.
He's always hungry that little guy.
(growling loudly)
(coughing violently)
- Thank you!
- (Mark) Hmm!
- Cheers!
(Irish shanty music)
(laughing quietly)
- The food is delicious.
Compliments to the chef
- (groans) I hope Mark and Mario are in here.
There you guys are.
- (laughs) Hey!
It's delicious.
- I think I caught something and I am not feeling good.
- Where's your hat?
We saw your hat.
- What are you guys eating?
- Scones.
- They're delicious.
- Scones?
- Grab one of those.
- Scones?
Scones?
We don't want no stinking scones.
- (Mark) They're good!
- (Coyote) We want fish.
- (Mario) Hey, hey, hey.
I need to see that ring again.
- (growls) I told you, precious.
They wanted the ring.
They want to take it from you.
- I need to see the ring.
I've been thinking.
I need to inspect it.
- No.
- I need to inspect it.
- It's mine.
- No!
(intense string music)
(dramatic music)
- (Coyote) There it is
Yes, yes, yes.
We did it.
We gots the precious.
We got it away from the wizard and the hobbit.
That's right.
The wizard and the hobbit was trying to takes it from us,
they were but my love, my precious,
they were- they were your friends.
Mark and Mario.
No!
They are not.
They are hobbits and wizards,
and they want the precious to be taken for them.
Yes, Smeagol.
Smeagol.
Smeagol wants to go back.
It wants you to leaves us alone.
Leave?
We're not leaving.
We're not going anywhere.
Yes!
Leave now and never come back!
What?
Leave?
I'm not going anywhere.
Leave now.
Never come back!
(dramatic music)
He- he's gone.
He's gone!
Precious!
Precious, he's gone.
He's gone.
Yes!
Smeagol is free!
He's free!
Smeagol's free!
Be brave.
Stay away from my precious!
We'll see you on the next adventure.
(upbeat safari music)
- There we go!
- [Crowd] (laughing)
- Do I need to it again?
