Stills are at 0:05, 0:41 and 0:50 of a 2:23 clip." - "Daniel's account (owner's account plus video): worried about not having money, he stopped on the road and found $118 in cash on the roadside, about 25 miles from anywhere, and filmed it in the moment, for the record." - "He has retold the same story on camera and in writing: 360MEN Worth Thinking About episode 06 (Nov 9, 2018), SCOTOMAVILLE 03.01 (Jan 15, 2023), AI Self Mastery V4.00.02 (Jul 3, 2024) and his manuscript. These are his own retellings, so they show consistency, not independent proof." - "The stills show a $50 note on top of a fan of bills. The $118 total comes from Daniel's telling, not from counting the still.

Daniel says it shows Day 17 of his 2006 Trans-America bicycle ride, leaving Baker, Nevada, and riding into Great Basin National Park. ## The date Daniel counts the ride from Mother's Day, May 14, 2006, when he left the San Francisco airport. Day 17 is then about May 30-31, 2006. That is his own count ("roughly"). The stills are screenshots from a media player and carry no date stamp, so the date is his account, not something printed in the picture. Mid-June 2006 for Cedar City, Utah (see [claim C6](https://danielcomp.com/map.md)) comes after this clip. ## What the three stills show 1. **0:05, the sign.** A blue road sign reading "NEXT SERVICES 75 MILES" on a sagebrush plain under a clear sky. 2. **0:41, the cash.** A fingerless-gloved hand holding a fan of bills, with a $50 note on top, over the asphalt beside a bike wheel and handlebar. 3. **0:50, Daniel on the road.** Daniel in a cycling helmet, filming himself, with an empty highway and distant mountains behind him. ## The provision story (Daniel's account plus the video) Daniel was worried about not having money. He stopped on the road, about 25 miles from anywhere, and found $118 in cash on the roadside, at the exact spot where he stopped. He filmed it in the moment, for the record. That is why the cash is in the second still. He has told the same story again on camera and in writing: - [360MEN Worth Thinking About, episode 06, "Transformation"](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IDBL9QvqSgE) (Nov 9, 2018). He plays the 2006 clip, says he was out of money on "$15 a day", about 25 miles into the day, "having this little conversation with God about provision", stopped to take off his jersey and, looking down, found $118. - [SCOTOMAVILLE 03.01, "Finding our WHY"](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OiVCJO4k9fU) (Jan 15, 2023). The same clip and telling, shown as an early attempt at video. - [AI Self Mastery V4.00.02, "Knowing WHY"](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F85kstgu5EA) (Jul 3, 2024). The same telling again. - His manuscript (file dated Apr 20, 2026, not public) tells it at length, "leaving the Great Basin National Park", with the cash found "twenty five miles from the nearest home, intersection and human", and the line "I ripped out my video camera and recorded exactly what was going on." ## What this page does not say - The date is Daniel's own count. Nothing in the stills dates them. - The $118 total is from his telling. The still shows a $50 note on top of other bills; no total can be read from it. - The distance, about 25 miles, is Daniel's own estimate (he confirmed 25 on Nov 2, 2026; his earlier "about 30" was a rough guess). - The retellings are Daniel's own. They show the story has not changed in eight years. They are not independent proof, and no other person was there. - In the 2018 telling Daniel says the place is in Utah. Baker and Great Basin National Park are in eastern Nevada, just west of the Utah line; this page uses Nevada. - The 2010 MENtrepreneurs series does not tell this story; the retellings are the 2018 to 2024 videos listed above.
