This might be the most dangerous obstacle I've ever come up against [ENGLAND PART 2]
Day 1 of my most ambitious adventure to date continues and not only is there plenty more farmland to sneak through, but there is also unforeseen trepidation ahead. Completing this epic 14 mile day would deliver me to the freedom of the remote and rugged lands of Northumberland. If the farmers don't have something to say about that however, ghastly swathes of fallen trees left by recent storms certainly would...

I attempted to cross England in a completely straight line. (PART 1)
zhlédnutí 816KPřed 2 dny
The straight line mission and all it's glorious pointlessness peaks right here with what is undoubtedly the most ridiculously ambitious jaunt I've ever attempted. 68 miles across the most rugged and remote areas of my home country in the darkest depths of winter, battling oceans of hellish forests, unrivalled amounts of farmland and countless more seriously dodgy obstacles. All of this with my ...
Geoguessr but every location is incredibly rude [PLAY ALONG]
zhlédnutí 206KPřed 14 dny
This week we prove that I am the most childish bloke on CZcams by exploring the "So Childish" map. A puerile map made up entirely of locations that feature cocks, fannies, farts and anything else that would amuse a 12 year old. If you're too mature or boring to laugh along, do not fear - you can still play along and have a go at beating my score. PLAY ALONG: Play your round, put your marker dow...
Geoguessr but I have 0.1 SECONDS per round (FINALLY)

Made famous by the mighty Rainbolt who's thumbnail I ripped off, this insane Geoguessr format literally gives you a 10th of a second to decide where you are before the screen goes blank. You need a pretty photographic memory for this one and I've long wondered how I would fare. Today, despite not having properl...

We're back with some more addictive Travle, but this time we take it up a few notches.

We've had some difficult geo detectives in the past year, but this one tops the lot. It's just a guy on a frozen lake. All we really have to play with is some piney looking trees, a stone dam and a buoy. Have I gone too far this time? or will my ever sharpening searching skills make this yet another success? For those new to the channel, geo detective is a series in which I (GeoWizard) attempt ...

Today, thanks to an internet outage, I roll back the years with some classic Geowizard Geoguessr, except on a map I've never played before - An Urban Europe. 3 minutes per round should allow me to go steady and have some fun, I thought, but a series of wild guesses turned this one into something a bit more serious!

A year ago my straight line missioning rivals Archie and Adam Fieldhouse challenged me to a race across the Isle of Man, and in December 2023 it happened. 10 miles across mountains, freezing lakes and farmland. Full of excitement, drama, pain and one rather angry landowner. But who will come out o...

    I wouldn’t be shocked if most towns of any size in the US have number streets crossed by streets named after trees (and president’s names).

    Why aren't the platinum/gold/silver/bronze zones defined as a percentage of the total distance traveled? If someone were to complete a 100km platinum run, and someone else completes a 5km platinum run, then is it fair to put the two in the same platinum category when one mission is 20x longer than the other? Instead of a hard 25m for every mission, platinum could be defined as 0.15534% deviation of the total mission length (which works out to be 25m for a 10 mile mission). In this case, the mission was 68 miles which would have allowed for 170m deviation. It sounds like a lot, but over such a long length, it reduces the chance of being caught by a single farmer and also permits more room to go around obstacles that pose safety concerns.

    It shouldn't be that hard to cross a small country like England, Wales or Scotland in a straight line you'd think. Too many land owners and possessive people being aggressive towards 'intruders' though. The land existed long before we ever arrived and some over-privileged arse with a crown on his head laying claim to it all, and they'll exist long after we're all dead.

    Those clearings with the trees still left in place are the worst terrain ever. Even a straight on swamp is easier to cross. Back in the service this was pretty much the one thing you always circled around. If you were caught in contact in that shit, you'd be as good as dead. Also I'm sure you had your reasons for the running shoes (it seems?), but high cut boots with ankle support are a life saver in forests. You never know when you'll have that one dumb slip and twist your ankle. Saved me more than once.
