Timelapse video shows a 9,500-mile road trip across the US

An incredible timelapse video shows a 9,500-mile road trip in under eight minutes. 

The video was posted to YouTube by the user lookoutforchris after he and his friend took a four-week trip around the U.S.. 

The road warriors visited several landmarks, national parks and numerous small towns along the way, with their GoPro recording the road ahead. 

In total the pair made it through 11 states: New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada, California, Oregon, Idaho, Wyoming, Montana, Minnesota, South Dakota and Illinois. 

Pit stops included White Sands National Monument in New Mexico, downtown Las Vegas, Lombard Street in San Francisco, Devils Tower in Wyoming and Badlands National Park in South Dakota, to name a few.

The full video is seven minutes and 50 seconds long.
