Ryan Michael Trahan is one of the most popular new-generation vloggers on YouTube. Ryan is known for his “penny challenge” where he raises large amounts of money by bartering. He recently made an amazing journey from Europe to America to raise money for charity, starting from €0.01 to $400,000.

In his latest endeavor, Trahan embarked on an extraordinary journey from Europe to America, armed with just €0.01, with the goal of raising funds for charity. Over the course of seven days, he made remarkable choices and attempts to navigate his way back to the United States, ultimately raising an impressive $400,000.

YouTube vlogger Ryan Trahan and his great escape

Starting his journey in Paris with just a single penny, Trahan faced the challenge of limited resources. With an expensive direct flight to New York City well beyond his budget, he resorted to creative measures to fund his travel expenses. 

Selling water, drawing caricatures, washing windows, and telling jokes became his means of generating income as he made his way through Amsterdam, London, and finally Dublin. From Dublin, he managed to secure a £200 flight through Toronto, which would ultimately take him to his final destination, New York City.

As Trahan embarked on his journey, he offered incentives to generous donors to encourage their contributions. One incentive was “The Great Reset,” a challenge that would reset his funds back to one cent if anyone donated $50,000 in a single lump sum.

To further entice donors, Trahan provided a 24-hour immunity from “The Great Reset” for a donation of $50,001, which was secured for him by Smart Prop Trader on the third day of his journey. Additionally, those who donated $100,000 received a special 30-second ad read from Trahan.
