it did you see the sign on the thing though on the billboard let me know okay there's our next one I know it's our next one because it said in the description that we should always be facing the monstrosity in question um that one is a monstrosity this there's no debate really and we're in France again so they really do have a knack the the frogs of building Concrete monstrosities in Britain it's our usual excuse is that a lot of the time the city's in question were bombed to Oblivion in World War II like Birmingham Coventry more so which gave rise to a lot of concrete 60s buildings which are now being demolished in their hundreds is that the case in France I don't know I don't know I don't think it was I don't think it needed to be bombed did it that much because they just took it over um anyway that's history lesson over how the hell am I going to get this this there's nothing really I don't think they can give it away so we've got to think about foliage how far north in France are we pretty far north is the answer to that is there any hmm are we in France for sure for sure Jordan de France yeah we got two separate businesses that are in French I was just thinking Garden of France could be you know in another country it kind of does look like the Czech Republic a bit but yeah I would say either near Paris again or Lille somewhere like that just based on the foliage pretty far north so I'm gonna make a guess and I'm gonna go I mean it's probably the outskirts of Paris but just for a laugh and just to give you guys a chance to beat me I am going to go outskirts of Lil let's find a road that correlates it's kind of like curving around this way so maybe I feel like we're a bit further out maybe like there and it's just south of Paris of course melon melon is where we were on a big old roundabout that is quite annoying because I was

quietly confident is the truth 405 6 ain't the end of the world let's move on I'm hoping this there'll be one in Britain soon but it seems that we are in Europe on this occasion again and it's bloody France again isn't it Montmorency don't believe it I never had France down as a particularly big culprit for brutalist architecture and again it looks like it's gonna be I mean we've got that you know what's going to happen here don't you I'm gonna go near Paris and it's going to be Leon or something that's what's going to happen we do have an old wall here and we do have the odd tree look at that that tree there which and that there those bushes which could be further south but let's just gaze briefly upon the building in question it kind of reminds me of the the old library in Birmingham I don't know if any of you have seen that I'll put a picture of it up right now it's an absolute monstrosity I actually explored it when I was very drunk and it was quite dangerous actually when it was abandoned yeah that one kind of fans outwards as you saw but this one it's a much Tamer version it fans downwards if anything I imagine it's part of a hospital but I'm not sure right it's no fun if I go Paris I'm thinking that the the trees might be further south therefore I might go for Leon or I don't want to go as far south as Bordeaux or too loose or any of the others so I'll go Leon just to just to mix it up let's let's try that ah okay okay okay so actually my worst score of the day but I was right to go further south uh just clocking the foliage there Montpellier is where we were I didn't think for a minute we were that far south but that was the Direction departmentale Des will never know

and we'll never care last round who's beating me many of you will be oh my God look at this have we got Britain finally I think we have I knew it I knew there'd be there's plenty of this stuff in Britain right I'm gonna get a perfect score on this round mark my words and that is not necessarily going to be easy but we've got Northwest cancer research City Center airport and widness so that would suggest Liverpool would it not that is absolutely You've Gotta Laugh at that what the is that actually part of a residential building is that that's offices or or a hospital or something but what's that that is one of the wow that is one of the most brutal shocking pieces of architecture I've ever seen it really is and I live in Birmingham so that really is something Epworth street is going to help us but not that much because this monstrosity is such a big Landmark on the map right witness let's let's get in the map here because I thought that was near Liverpool and I might be right ah so could we be in runcorn probably not because runcorn is in a city at least I hope it's not doesn't deserve to be uh five six one down here look so we're gonna be in Liverpool but this could be pretty hard to find airport as well where's where's the John Lennon airport there it is so we we could be we could be quite far in here so Northwest cancer research that's going to be fairly useful accelerator but this is the thing and I I'm fairly sure that's a hospital just just based on ah Liverpool City London Road Branch well that is that is one of the most useful bits of information you're ever likely to see on a British sign that is not something you often see on a fast food joint so we don't need to try and decipher that rubbish we can see it here London Road so usually it's just a phone number at best London Road so here we go we're going to be we're going to be around here somewhere that's Park Road does it say more Street [Music] [Applause] [Music] I'm really struggling to find this so I can't lie I can't find London Road [Music] London Road okay so it's way up here that's gotta be it surely is it it's and it's it is the Royal Liverpool University Hospital we're not actually on London Road Mr Liang Ji uh we're on Prescott Street so probably update that at some point uh because we're right by Lula flower shop that was Moss Street not Moore Street um and that tops the lot in terms of outrageously concrete shabby looking buildings okay let's put our final marker down

fascinating let's give this a go areas with tragic or disturbing backstories this could be a really interesting map welcome back everyone by the way um we're back with more Geo guesser after a little while out thanks to all the Adventure the adventuring wrist bombings murders I don't think I'm going to be able to monetize this hardly at all but oh well it's not all about the money industrial environmental and natural catastrophes mysterious events of any sorts it's time for you to take a dive into the areas with tragic or disturbing backstories almost all of which happened within the 20th and 21st century created by Phil ravenholm this could be a great map let's just Dive Right In I'm going no moving to give myself some sort of you know structure and restriction if you watching have never played along before now's your chance check how to do it in the description the instructions will be there it's very fun and it's easy to do I think we are recording so we can begin where are we gonna get here I can't panel Zoom I've done it wrong I could that be Chernobyl let's just have a look this this can be a warm-up Chernobyl Chernobyl where is it God this isn't going well I can't even find pripya pripyat ah I found chinob Chernobyl so where's pripya there it is I think I will just go prepare and oh there's the Chernobyl nuclear power plant yeah we'll go in here and I'll go this this isn't in the game this doesn't count and it's wrong anyway it's Moscow I have no idea what happened there maybe we can Google I'll Google them after the game or after each round yeah after each round this is your link let's go first one okay where could we be we've got a yellow number plate white number plate West Gate oh hang on a minute is this Nairobi the shopping mall God if it is then that really is uh doesn't get much more disturbing than that are we in Nairobi I figure it out we don't we don't have the usual Google car Westgate Shopping Center see I'm just Gathering Clues to see if we can get the country here there's a k there Kenyan no that's probably I mean Westgate Cinema you'll have to forgive me I know I've said this so many times but I haven't played geoguessr in well over a month um golden homes but yeah the registration plates I just can't remember whether my uh Kenya has yellow ones I don't remember it having it's really bad um but yeah we're in Africa it's you know English English language ah that is okay isn't it why aren't I going into the map and just going to Nairobi and trying to fight I'm sure it was the Westgate Mall I haven't actually explained what this potential tragic or disturbing moment in history was it was the shooting at the mall with the terrorists and that was in the description so I'm hoping terrible terrible event the scariest thing you can imagine there's a really good documentary on it but watch it at your own sort of risk because it is you'll never go to a mall uh again and not think about it um can't find it and I'm looking mainly in the West lavington Mall The Junction Mall Prestige Plaza Mall ington Shopping Center timore I mean bloody hell where is this thing got it Westgate Shopping Mall oh my God oh wow this really is heavy West Coast Shopping Center I'm happy to go there I can't see how that can be wrong really looking at it and it's right

um I was thinking I might have to Google things if I don't know what happened but on this occasion I'd heard of this one so moving on and we're on a bridge we're on a big old bridge God I feel like this is the United States that's is that Pennsylvania badge maybe there's one but I don't think we're in Pennsylvania this is this could be one of these bridges that crosses you know maybe this one maybe it's this one Chesapeake Bridge tunnel hmm that's South and it bends around to the right let me see let me look let me just have a little scan for these Bridges [Music] I can't really find uh a bridge that looks the same and I don't I don't know of a disturbing or tragic incident that happened um I can't think of one that happened on a bridge unless maybe did this collapse or are we near New Orleans where you know maybe a hurricane happened and some cars were blown off I mean it's possible but feel like I would have heard of that we are also looking for something that juts out here but that's not right that's not right I'm quite determined to find this and then we will have to Google what happened here [Music] unless it's Fort Myers or somewhere around this area that got decimated by uh the last hurricane Ian how could I forget its name we could be around here very easily that looks yeah I mean it's Gotta Be It's gotta be so we should be heading slightly Northwest which we are the fishing thing the pier you can see there and it does look like it bends around towards us a little bit it gets bigger so yeah we are here definitely so that didn't take me too long to find I'm guessing well I'll Google it in a sec but the Sunshine Skyway Bridge I'm guessing something happened here during Hurricane Ian let's see if we can keep this perfect score going oh this is going to be hard because this is a long way talking big distances but I reckon about there should be good ah we've lost out on two points I should have carried on a bit further up um but I'm going to take a moment to Google this oh I'm wrong about hurricane Ian 1980 collapse oh my goodness the southbound span opened in 1971 was destroyed when the freighter 185 meter freighter what a freighter it's a it's a boat there it is collided with a support column during a sudden Squall what's a Squall increase in Wind yeah I know all about those causing the catastrophic failure of the whole Bridge six cars a truck and a Greyhound bus oh that's unlucky if you're on that plummeted 150 feet 46 meters into Tampa Bay resulting in 35 deaths the only survivor of the fall this is less tragic but just as interesting was Wesley McIntyre whose Ford Courier pickup truck bounced off the hull of the summit Venture and into the water McIntyre managed to escape his vehicle before it sank and he was pulled to safety oh my God how did he survive that I'm just trying to picture that car going and then falling a great height

how's it going everyone welcome back to the channel uh we've got some good old Geo guesser for you this evening and I thought this map would be quite fun Guinness World Records each location will be the location where a record was presumably set I don't know I only had a look at one so we've got to try and figure out obviously where we are that'll be the the sort of main thing but also a side challenge in this particular game will be trying to figure out which record that place holds the one I saw was pretty obvious but some of them may not be I don't know it might be a mixture I've got a bit of a cold by the way I'm sure you can tell but yeah let's have a good old play along shall we um it's been a little while if you haven't done it before instructions will be in the description give it a go it's great fun thank you to the guy who messaged me recommending this map and thank you to Century who created it in fact no I'll thank you at the end because it might be right here we go no moving for a bit of challenge bit of restriction and there we go there's a link and here's our first round and we've got a temple seems to be Indian looking but then there's a fair few white people this guy's got a Utah t-shirt on this guy's got a a maple leaf Canadian maple leaf it seems but we're definitely definitely not in the the U.S we're definitely not in Utah or Canada think it's safe to say zooming in here these look more Indian so presumably this is quite a touristy site in India Japanese women you could just tell you can just tell by the hats can you not am I right or wrong let me know in the comments we'll never know I suppose um Asian tourists although if we're in India then we are in Asia now this could be useful disco where does he look he looks like a local guide but he doesn't look Indian he looks possibly um well I'm now thinking based on his appearance that we're we're more likely in Cambodia or Thailand which would correlate with the trees these tall palm trees and yeah I've never been to either country I've never been to any of those temples so um yeah I don't know the difference basically so this I'm now thinking is probably a temple in Cambodia hmm I wonder if we can find out from this I can't read the I can't tell the difference between the the script of Thailand and Cambodia at the best of times even when it's clear as day on a sign that's Latin script so I don't know what I'm talking about I'm just trying to look for a flag or something on on his person he's a policeman isn't he somewhere between a policeman and a Boy Scout um the Hat does have the colors of both countries flags in terms of the record this could be the biggest temple in the world couldn't it I mean it's it's big and square um so if they're counting this structure even that structure I mean even that is huge so if I was to yeah put money on it I'd say biggest temple in the world or biggest Buddhist temple in the world but I will make a guess and we'll find out afterwards and I'm going into Cambodia and call what I think is a very famous one we're looking West there so that would put us you're gonna let me put the marker down that might come in useful that would put us there but then that carries on straight so that rules out and call what but we've got this one here as well Terrace of the elephants Bayonne Temple so that we could be there um and I can it's lagging it's lagging that's annoying I can look at the shape of these buildings on there look because we are going for a perfect score here and that to me adds up oh I don't know actually I don't see this one here that is that looks huge so that looks like a really impressive Temple I just don't see this or this coming out so I'll have a quick look for another Temple and get back to you oh wait a minute I think I've got confused here I hadn't zoomed in enough I actually think we are here although I don't see that path there we've got that one there and we're actually still inside this whole area and then there's a moat so I was looking there we're actually here if we are here and that would make more sense I think um one two three yeah um yeah I think that one and that one will be those that one that one and that one will be that that and that and then we've got the two at the back yeah I think we are there um I think that would be very me to disregard this and move on but I've luckily I've noticed okay I'm guessing boom five thousand points 19 yards a

could be a number of other things it could be the biggest moat in the world although we weren't next to the moat so that would be a bit silly biggest Buddhist temple in the world that's what I'm saying and we'll check them all at the end right here we go this one looks interesting we're in the Rockies I would say Canadian Rockies or oh no no maybe not we've actually got registration plates here that haven't been blurred for some reason is that the Idaho plate I I've forgotten it all Idaho I can I could believe it's quite a yellow Sandy Dusty color down there uh indicating planes hmm I think I might struggle here to get the well to get both the location and what the hell this is some really weird structures here look at that it's like a roof that opens up that's like Thunderbird that is could this be some sort of like space Observatory or something is it Idaho I think it is let's get in there you know it ticks the boxes for huge mountains some of the biggest mountains uh in in America I would say are we up towards Canada not necessarily not necessarily we could be we could be down here but my guess is that we are in in a really remote spot and this is some sort of Observatory I need to think outside of the box here with these records it's not just going to be biggest Observatory or highest altitude Observatory it could be the site where something happened maybe someone performed the longest paper airplane throw you know over there so I don't know what are these tubes what the hell are they fake snow machine would not buy a ski slope it's trying to deduce a few things yeah I need to consider that it was something that happened here but I just there's no point trying to guess that is the I'll have a little scan I'll have a little scan through the through the mountains here buffalo hump [Music] so I've been scanning Idaho now the mountains of Idaho looking for somewhere where there's a bit of a plane to the South mountains to the North and then but then more Mountains to the South beyond the plain I don't know I've been looking for too long probably but I'm just living in hopes of you know Young's Mountain Observatory basically or something something ah moral Mountain Lookout Museum maybe maybe yeah highest altitude Museum in the world let's try it no there's no way there's no way we were that far south that was an Arizona plate I don't believe we were that fast that is okay well I think we found out what the um it wasn't Observatory large binocular telescope Observatory so we'll say that it's the largest binocular telescope Observatory but the fact that that was in Arizona Southern Arizona we may have been looking at Mexico in the far in the far far distance is quite shocking and a little bit embarrassing because I said it

looked Sandy it quite literally was sand it quite literally was Desert down there um obviously we were it was the winter way it had to be it had to be third round oh wow okay that looks pretty scary straight away I'm thinking Japan based on this building oh and that mountain yet that could easily be Mount Fuji this building as well reminded me of Japan let's just have a little look around oh oh yeah food Stadium good Stadium dude Stadium of the dudes are we recording we are but yeah there's the Japanese script information they've just got it in English as well that's cool yeah this is that this is our spectacle isn't it I'm just looking at the rest of the roller coaster looks like quite a new one just in case there could be anything else about it like most twists and turns it's not the longest it's not the tallest the newest isn't going to be a record so I think I think we're looking at this yeah most inverted drop on a roller coaster I would say look how it goes out at a 45 degree angle and then just so you'd basically it would look like you're going off a cliff you're not going to see any of the track and then it comes in yeah you'd have like G-Force lurching you forward out of the oh and then down you go very relieved so if that's about Fuji let's let's set to work that's South so that's kind of Southwest a bit let's get to work trying to find this place there's Mount Fuji Forest Adventure Fuji yeah yeah we could be here but Forest Adventure doesn't sound particularly suitable Subaru land no it's it's too far away anyway is it no maybe not no I'm gonna go a bit further north though yeah and then the other way do we have mountains can't see we've got a ferris wheel there oh are they mountains yeah I think they're mountains just through that one little window so is this it Fuji oh Highland Thomas land oh my God it's like Drayton Manor yeah this is a good theme park here so mini Mount Fuji Peak oh my God so they're making a big thing out of Mount Fuji that's not the mini one is it food Stadium it was the food Stadium great so we will be there weren't we we're looking South it's on our left yeah that's where we are and this is the takabisha is that what it's called let's find out yeah four yards this time 5 000 points we got a terrible score on the last round and did I actually declare what I didn't did I but I never would have got binocular Observatory so it doesn't really matter I said Observatory so I can be proud of that but I was never going to be correct yeah in that case then I should make my guess for the record before I make my guess geographically in case it gives it away so for this one it hasn't given it away

luckily and I'm gonna say what I said before the mo the steepest inverted most severely inverted drop you know what I mean uh but that's a great perfect score and on this one it looks like we might be in Europe for a change plesso Di pharmacea it's a Spanish or Italian let's have a look pretty sure that's Italian yes Yen say fusika so this feels like Italy Northern Italy and in the po valley I would say because it's really flat the po valley being I don't know if that's the correct term the PO the poe planes somewhere near Milan maybe um not a Million Miles Away so what's this biggest Hospital di Pharmacy I've just considered oh we've got some snow there that's strange I've just considered again sorry I'm not thinking this through properly but in the last round it may not be just the physical structure of the roller coaster it might be that some nutcase went on that roller coaster a hundred times and broke a record could be that so but I've made my I've made my guess is it the only cycle path in Italy that's not really a world record roundest bush might be in the world no I think it's round it's good but it's I think I've seen better most hilarious car longest standing mound of snow been there since 1994. no I'm clutching at straws I think so in all seriousness it's probably the hospital plesso de Pharmacy what kind of Accolade could could a hospital have apart from being the biggest or most lives saved in a day yeah let's go for that and we'll try and find it and we'll say that we are pretty far north I think it's fair to say it could be Turin or Milan that's a big building over there as well I think we buy a quite a major river by the way because we've got that so I'm gonna yeah maybe it is Turin no it's too mountainous up there in Turin maybe we're at Pier Senza it's not necessarily the PO that that bridge spans of course but I think it's quite likely to be cremona looking we're looking East North East so we're on the south side of the river so piercenzo would match up but I can't find a huge university there there's a Burger King there so I'll go there this isn't right but uh as good a guess as any oh Palmer not too far away that's a good it's a good score four seven nine nine now let's have a look at this is that the bridge it doesn't matter this is the University degli studi de Parma Parco area could that be the biggest University campus no I don't think so because oh that is big actually carries on down here I just think there'll be a bigger one in America gotta be so I said I'd make my guess I did didn't I most lived saved but it's not it's not a hospital it's a university so I'm going to change I'm going to change my answer because it hasn't hasn't given it away flattest University that's ridiculous oh screw it I've got nothing better no

recording good stuff might as well get it out the way early doors uh how we doing everyone hope we're well uh welcome back to another geoguesser video I was meant to get a Geo detective video out for you today but it's proving pesky again uh but it will be a good one something a bit different but here we are I thought I'd give this country borders map a try which we tried three or four weeks ago and had great fun with um but we were playing the satellite view today we're going to play it as a normal game and you can play along the reason I'm not doing satellite view today is because I couldn't get that to work so simple as that really I did manage to achieve kind of a perfect score I was two points off the Perfect Score because of a bug but I imagine that today that ain't going to happen it's it's going to be much harder to get a a perfect score when we're just playing it on the ground um depending on where we are we might get lucky uh but without any further Ado I'm going to make this into a challenge so that you can play along and it's going to be no moving no time limit the best way to play on this sort of map so do follow the destructions down in the inscription below it's not too late to do that fine your loss and let's play I like the look of this one I like the look of this one to begin with this is the point at which two countries converge and we're on a path this is a proper Photosphere we've got tourists we can maybe try and gauge where these people are from I think I know him nah he looks like someone who used to work in the kitchen at at Toby carv well we've got to look at this writing for a for a start maybe this gives away the the name of the water fall would be good as long as I know it it looks like the Victoria Falls it can't be Niagara Falls obviously there is another one ah wait a minute I can't remember what they're called but it begins with I Isuzu it's not Isuzu that's a car brand I'll come back to that but looking down here here we also have some spanishyo language perigo perigo the waterfall that I'm thinking of oh man I used to have an atlas with the biggest waterfalls in and this is like one of the most famous is it on the border of Argentina and Paraguay something like that it's going to be tricky to find it that there'll definitely be some speed UPS in this video where I'm trying to find things but Isuzu Falls no that's the car make again igua IGA IGA it looks like igu uaso or something um is it on the edge of Venezuela or or am I just thinking of um the angel Force well if it is the let's call them the Isuzu Falls the ones that I'm thinking of that are very famous then it should come up on the map you know with little zooming but I think I'm looking in the right area here that's Paraguay there Iguazu surely this is what I'm thinking of the igua and that would correlate with the tropical Ness of the place The Iguazu Falls where is it where is it maybe it's not that I'm doubting myself now I will'll Follow The Iguazu River however we're into Brazil there that's that's not a border this is my worry and then it's into the piran river that's not good that is not good have I made this thing up ah Las karatas Del Iguazu surely it's here surely Iguazu Falls yes oh I was looking at that and it just didn't look like a waterfall where's the waterfall I don't know what they've done with this map I don't think that's quite right I mean we've got a path here that's heading down I don't see any water down there but right we got to figure this out now I am using the old the new rather Compass system which I'm I'm just going to have to get used to so that my face can be more in the corner so that's West we're looking West although the compass might not be correct I'm glad I found the um the Falls but I really want to get this spot on cuz the perfect score is on of course okay we can do this we can do this we're looking out to the west and we've got this a very distinct path shape with what looks to be an island in the middle which you can walk over to that looks like the island but there's no path leading into it unfortunately it's making me think that the compass is wrong because also the water the way that the water's flowing seems to be flowing South no it's flowing North it's flowing North so that's correct yeah ah does that lead to that I don't think that does lead to that um Island actually when you zoom in it's nowhere near it I would say so that is that got it's got to be it's got to be which would put us kind of here so we've got this path coming down it's not really the right shape it should be more Jagged and angular than that but I would say that that's that's got to be it isn't it am I missing something no cuz we're looking to the east there Tom nothing's really adding up here to be honest I would actually put us there but there's no there's no path but looking at the shape of things I think that's where I'd put us so it's not going to be right but you know I doubt we're going to get a perfect score on here anyway but that's the best I've got that is the best I've got unfortunately and that is where my guess will be damn that is quite frustrating I didn't think that the the land protruded out that far either and that was actually just the other side that wasn't an island looked like an island because of all of

this interesting interesting it was quite tough to figure things out in that one but one point off as annoying as that is I can't Grumble with did you get perfect there did you use your Noggin a bit more right this looks pretty Baltic uh or sorry I meant to say Scandinavian but it looks Baltic in terms of how cold it is um interesting well what could this be then it looks like this is the Border here this this cutway into the trees is the Border I've got something in mind here for this we've got a signpost saying welcome to whatever country we're coming into and then you can clearly see this is the Border it's making me want to do a border mission you know to travel a country's border from from start to finish anyway let's not get carried away let's take a look at Scandinavia and think about which two countries this could be where they feel the need to have this cutout there's no fence but much like with USA and Canada there doesn't need to be a fence it could just be surveillance you know and Laser white you know what you call them motion senses that's what they have isn't it so it could be Sweden and Norway somewhere up here but what I was thinking it could be is Finland and Russia because I don't think they have offense but I think they have the odd Watchtower the odd sort of manned you know Outpost with the odd Soldier even more so in 2023 I imagine but yeah I'm just wondering if this could be Russia Finland although we are on a road so presume ably there would be a checkpoint here if it were that so I'm leaning back towards Norway Sweden the reason I'm not considering um Finland Sweden is because it's all a river until you get very very far north at which point it wouldn't look like this look it's still going the river this River oh all the way up so yeah no argument there so I think we're looking at this well first of all we've got to see how far south this looks judging by the trees I don't think it's too far north maybe this kind of area maybe around here somewhere yeah let's try and find a road around here it's not going to be the e14 let's have a look at the compass as well that's North yeah that's North so that does Bend round does Bend round and then that one bends to the left but we've got a river there as well I don't think it the river apparently stops at the border that's slightly odd I don't think it's that one it can't be that one I think we can deduce this and I think we're also getting too far north here are we No Maybe not maybe not it's not that one ah how about that do we think there's a lake that way I'm going to just look for a few minutes to see if I can find a better one guys uh bear with [Music] me okay I've gone far north enough now I'm actually at the point but which I started my straight line mission that is right there pretty much and West is the gigantic stor rers vat net where I nearly sank marius's kayak okay I'm I'm going to go back down try South no but I do think we're further south rather than North H that could bit you know border slightly at that angle Road slightly South this one bit of a Bend yeah I think that's it I'm not sure but it's got the right Bend I'm going for that bang get in that feels good because I thought I'd gone too far south there look how far south it is when we started to get up towards Mo irana I knew that was way too far north because I've been up there and it's it's it looks completely different as as many of you saw that height of pine is something you get much further south so I knew we couldn't have been up there but I have to admit when I got past these areas I thought oh no we're getting near the sea now this is too far

south maybe it is Russia Finland so that felt great to get that one did you also get it do let me know in the comments and we move on to the third round and this looks getable I don't want to jinx it but you know it looks like Europe so we've got every chance here come on give me some language give me some language or a flag either would be fine okay we got we got Pine here a similar kind of pine a bit different perhaps oh okay okay I wasn't expecting that oh now is that the Slovakian one or the Slovenian one it's the crest from one of those country's Flags I think it's Slovakia isn't it ah we'll see we'll see so not sure I'm going to get much else here and I'm already looking at the bend of the roads to see if I'm going to be able to scour the map for this place cuz I'm not sure I'm going to get much more info I think we're looking at Slovakia Poland it's fairly odd for it to have snow but it makes sense that the Border would be high altitude at the top of a mountain range you know or just high up yeah I don't know if I'm going to find this because Slovakia has a lot of miles of borders it could even be going into Hungary wait a minute which way is North that's North so it's like we've headed into Slovakia this way coming from Hungary Could That Be Right North is there we're going to be helped by this little road here and the shape of the houses and things I think this is getable we've got to try and read this haven't we I don't think any of those words are countries to be honest just because the Slovakian building is North I'm going to search this border the Slovakian Hungarian border and just see if I can find a spot that lines up wish me luck  and that's all the river danbe then for the rest of it so the best one I found was the first one that I zoomed into this is the one that most adds up that would be the building this would be that little road even though it's blocked off but I'm not mad on it the other option is is that that is on the Slovakian side and we're at the North by Poland so I'll have a quick look for something up [Music] here and that's all flat uh yeah that's the best thing I've got to be honest I'm not totally happy with it not happy but it's going to have to do I think this is an opportunity for you guys some of you to really catch up here let's give it a go an area I just looked over what I've got that all wrong in my head I got the

angles of things all wrong I'm blaming the new Compass system I thought it was more like that not happy with myself for that I've got to admit penultimate round this looks interesting we've left Europe and we're into Asia and this script what is that script is is that um La Thailand let's find out we're driving on what are we driving on I think we're driving on the left aren't we you can see that motor bike's got his light on yeah I think this might be La look at this big golden Turtle there's a joke there somewhere but I must refrain from embarrassing myself and yeah the border is a river we've got the Thailand flag doesn't look like there's a massive connection over there there's no bridge and it doesn't look like there's a much of a boat that goes across it's very mountainous let's say that we're on the Thailand side and let's not overthink it because that would make sense and the flag does look very tie it's just similar to the LA one isn't it I think anyway Compass don't fail me again that's North so actually this could be over towards Myanmar or Burma it looks quite mountainous but there's a river quite a quite a meaty River I don't suppose we're going to see which way that's flowing is there any way to tell that no maybe not but if that's North then I do think we're on the west the west side of Thailand that would make sense wouldn't it we could be somewhere like this yeah we could be somewhere like this look although that's the meong so we're not there but you get my point there could be a section of the Border um which faces West but I can't see any others to be fair it's diagonal it's running Northeast so that would be perfect if the if the meong wasn't there but ah look at this we also have this little river and that would be flowing that way wish I could tell which way the river was flowing just just looking for some Clues on the other side can't see much but yeah I think this this is a good little spot the Hang River need little village on the other side the other side being La maybe there maybe there it why not that's the perfect angle I mean we can have a look at the shape of this Road it's very long and straight actually and running Southeast no that's running more East I'll have another little [Music] look nothing better so far so that's where I'm provisionally going just going to have a quick Gander elsewhere just very quickly skim we can see where there's no River and no civilization could be down here so I'll have a quick look down [Music] here and that's the end it's all mountains so yeah that is the best spot I've found in all of Thailand it's not right though that's the only problem but I'm going to go there anyway bugger

got to be a great map to play biggest lake of every country and US state I've never done anything like this so 157 locations so it's not every country in the world because I guess yeah some of them don't have the photop sphere on their biggest lake some countries don't even have a lake the Maldives Springs to mind so they've bolstered it up with us States hopefully we don't get too many US Estates and it's a nice spread but yeah I think this will be a really good challenge a very hard one actually potentially because we might just be on a boat let's make that challenge link no moving of course um and please play along if you haven't already or even if you have already you could easily beat me here that this is going to be more to do with luck than skill I think but hopefully there will be some good chances for detective work let's go we have music listen to that can you hear that might as well check if we're recording while we're at it yes we are yeah that should be quite nice and quiet for you that's hilarious that's actually really tasteful music Well Done geoguesser Right Here we are on our first Lake anyway and it's huge um it's quite Brown that is actually distracting me quite a lot we've got islands and as predicted we're on a boat um this guy is quite angrily filming it or taking photos M if you if your heart's not in it mate don't do it and yes as you often do with these photos spheres they're taken by a person and you get their name Hector Navaro and that can give us a clue fortunately in some ways that can give us a clue to where we are not always though cuz they could travel now the other glaring clue we have here is a flag green yellow and red H I'm a bit Rusty now with my Flags but Bolivia okay let's let's keep a look at the it doesn't really look like Bolivia it's oh no no Bolivia does have jungle I'll get into the map in a sec let's just look at all these Clues because you can see the flag behind this guy's head but he doesn't really look Bolivian there aren't that many black people in Bolivia Colombia yes Ecuador yes and then this dude is much darker than these guys as well so maybe we're not in South America it's going to come down to the flag the flag is going to be very helpful here I think I just hope if I can get the flag okay which way is North that way is North so we've got an island there we've got an island there to the Northwest but really we can't see a lot else that seems to go on into Oblivion over there that's kind of to the east so let's get into the map then because I just want to check Bolivia the biggest lake in Bolivia ah it depends if they are counting lakes that that straddle two countries like would that be the biggest lake for Peru and Bolivia or would they judge it on whichever area of water is predominantly in the one country either way guys I think that these are quite deserty areas and not this kind of jungly stuff that we've got going all around around the lakes here the lake you can tell it's trees I don't think that that's what you have there I think it's quite arid there is jungle in Bolivia but it's uh yeah it's not where the big lakes are right Excuse me while I try and remember the flags here so Venezuela no that's got blue in it Columbia's got blue in it and Ecuador's got blue in it it's none of the others it could be some of these Surinam that's a big lake that is a big lake okay that would make sense because they're you know they have a South American name but I just want to look at Africa because there's so many flags that that could be Ghana it can't be because it's um vertical instead of horizontal which we have senagal see because I haven't done any flag tests in a while I'm getting confused between Sagal which it can't be by the way there's one Lake one big lake in Sagal and it's in the desert Cameroon it could be this one got an island there what other man I need to think about Flags bear with me yeah Ethiopia Ethiopia Lake Tanner looks quite looks quite jungly there that's all kind of jungle isn't it kind of like Tanner let's have Let's Line these islands up this is hard we're judging it as I kind of predicted a lot of the clues are on the boat San San sellan I wonder if there's a town called San that would be good wouldn't it B here ooh nah that's North that's North the reason I'm focusing on Ethiopia is is pretty much purely because of the the facial structure of this guy and the fact that we seem to have this weird language you know this weird it's a very unique you know script can't really see it that well but also the flag obviously does have a star in the in the middle of it doesn't it or something but we can't see that he could be Ethiopian as well just don't know if you How likely are you to get two Latin Americans on holiday in Ethiopia I'm just going to check back in this Surinam one San San Browns it's like Dutch isn't it there's plenty of ISS here but I don't know about the flag of Surinam I think it's a bit different let me let me size sorry I'm taking ages on this this might be quite a difficult video right that's North I don't like the way that all the lands in the background are the position like that that Oblivion over there where's that is it down here doesn't really add up maybe the compass is wrong yeah maybe the compass is wrong okay let's imagine the compass is wrong [Music] so where's Oblivion oblivion's over there that's Oblivion so we'd be like there that's the bigger island of the two and that's the other Island yeah that makes that makes a lot more sense very often the compass is wrong on these photos spheres oh what's that yeah that's a building and right in line if we were to look this way you've got bah da which is quite a Big Town to in Ethiopia not the capital but a bloody Big Town on this lake so I'm pretty confident with this now I'm pretty confident this is right yeah it's that Oblivion up there that and then that that there is that anyway I've spent so much time on this now I'm pretty happy this will be a great one for detective work if this is right yes 4999 brilliant could have done with that extra point we might really need that extra point cheers Hector what don't you

cheer up a bit next time and concentrate more on the the positioning yeah prick right next round now thanks Hector okay what have we got here Hector might have taken the only photo so we we've got to uh got to applaud him for that oh my goodness me I thought we had a satellite like imagery then we don't it's from a drone I think but look how high up that was taken from goodness and what's good about that is we can see the shape of this Lake perfectly it's a big lake it's not like gigantic it's not as big as the last one but it's mighty big it's a reservoir because you can see the dam there but also you can always tell a reservoir because you get these these shapes the layers where the water has been rising and falling so let's get to work at trying to figure out what country this might be it's pretty arid it could be this could be Spain Mexico let's have a look right not sure what that is I'm trying to figure out what side of the road they're driving on but it's so far down ah you know you can see from these Road markings they're driving on the right which which actually hardly narrows it down at all I'd be surprised if it was left if it was left that would mean it's Australia wouldn't it um so Mexico don't know do not know those Road markings could they be they couldn't really be European could they with that yellow in the middle am I right and it was taken by DJ veg which really I like that because it doesn't give anything away got some boats there lots of vehicles mainly Camper vans a few boats um but yeah I think I'm ready to have a little search on the map now to be honest it's not going to be America is it I mean oh but it's every US state I'm sorry I'm sure you forgive me but I I forgot I forgot that it's every US state this could well be a us US state it is a one in three chance that we'll get a US state we've also got some pretty good some pretty impressive like infrastructure here as well right so I think we yeah I think we're looking at like Nevada New Mexico Arizona wow this could this could take a little while like me we have here I'll get it but it'll take a bit of searching I think the one thing we've got going for us the main thing is the dam on the south so that's North so it's kind of like a a y shape or a v a V shape with the dam at the bottom so let's bear that in mind as we search Hoover Dam wow Hoover Dam well hang on a minute how far does that go no I don't think we're looking at that no we're not looking at Hoover Dam California no no I'm not going to search there for now Colorado what about this one here the naaj dam don't think that's right either remember the compass could be wrong Compass could be wrong that's quite a distinctive that that arm but then it raises the question what was the water level that that could be an island on an ordinary summer's day so bear it in mind I don't think it's that Lake though where are we now Colorado yeah where's the where's the biggest one in Colorado is it that one I wonder if things can get skewed by the you know the lens of this thing I don't think we're there really this this looks like New Mexico Arizona sort of Direction that's got to be it that's got to be it you could tell it a mile off it's actually not so much of a v that is the lens thing that I'm talking about uh skewing that it's actually quite straight from that side to that side but this is definitely it you can see every little feature you can see that bit there jutting out not an island you can see that bit of Lake there which is there so interestingly that's the biggest lake in Arizona so it's not counting that one then which is clearly bigger it's obviously it's given that to Nevada I presume anyway it's the Theodore Roosevelt Lake and Dam let's just try and make sure we don't lose any more points we can always give ourselves a moral perfect score so got to just put ourselves in the middle of the screen here so about there and it's a full score on round two 8 7 yards I think many of you would have got that one if you didn't get the first one but yeah well done if you found that one that was a bit easier that Lake

might service Phoenix I would say it probably does the Gila River interesting round three I'm enjoying this this is everything I thought it would be and more actually because we've had a mixture we've we've had a boat one we've had an aerial one and now we're on a beach with some sort of M Pole got a dude there walking along we've got flags it's pretty poor image quality oh look at the guy who made this one I I won't try and pronounce that sh I think he's fairly accurate so that would indicate China or you know Mongolia maybe no Mongolia they don't have they don't have the Chinese symbols do they so maybe this is is China I mean look how big this lake is I don't know anything about lakes in China but this lake is absolutely gigantic because well it's it's very very big it's very big you can't see the other side pretty much any given point you can see this enormous arm of Coastline wrapping around here so it's not exactly a hazy day but either way you can see that this is a gigantic Lake the guy or girl who was or in between who has taken this may have traveled just as they did in the first round this guy over here looks dark skinned but it could be the poor image quality this woman as well yeah it could just be that cuz look how black the the walkway looks that's very dark for some reason so it could be that the light is Playing Tricks on us or it could be that we're actually just in Africa let's have a look at China that looks like a huge Lake but again I'm not I'm still not sure whether they would count that as China's biggest lake you've got that one but we won't be there CU that's that's a very builtup area I think that one's pretty damn big bloody hell and that one there's quite a lot of similarly sized lakes here but I actually think that is not only the biggest king high but it's also it would match up for me with this sort of uh terrain kind of looks like more towards Mongolia that sort of thing I mean there is a big lake in Mongolia here OES like there's a lot of options here here this isn't going to be easy right okay let's presume that this is the King High Lake and let's presume that the compass is correct that's North the sun is in the South so that would that would add up so would we be here Bird Island Warf ticket office because then this Inlet here would be that and then the mountains you can see in the background but that might be I don't know about that that looks too small to be that gap for me although it is hard to tell how big this lake is exactly so that's one Theory we could be here something something Scenic area that would that make sense because this does look like like a bit of a spit of land that makes more sense to me cuz you've got the spit of land you've got absolutely vast expanses of water all the way around oh are they mountains over there well that's all right that's feasible and then you've got less of a gap look less of a gap but you still got Mountain so I'm I like that I like that I might I might just go for that and just be done with it to be honest it's annoying about that perfect score isn't it Hector you got this one but I don't think that adds up youve got like Lake by Cal the thing is you culturally you've got this I don't think you'd have that in Russia or less likely ah but then you've got the the dark skin now I'm going to go for it I'm going to go for where I've clicked and go for China because also if you have a look here the the mountains get bigger as they as they go further further down that Coast Eastward and I think they do here I think they do there so if this is Africa I'm sorry but I'm I'm I'm 80% sure 85% sure about this let's do it oh yes come on and uh

again I mean I this is this is still a moral Victory I think still should be on for a perfect score here but there you go an even harder map than we thought to get a perfect score on so wow lock KN I was going to say this looks more European um Lo KN I've heard of this this is um a huge Lake actually probably the biggest lake in the British Isles and it's in Northern irand the smallest principality or country in the British Isles pretty sure it's bigger than Loch Ness there's Loch Ness and there's Loch KN it's huge um and because it's so big it might be a bit tricky for me to actually pinpoint where we are here the compass needs to be right for sure let's try and Trust the compass might even birds of L KN and LU B no we're not going to be able to read any more on there so Compass where are we we're there so I mean I think a perfect score here is highly unlikely to be honest we seem to have a bit of an abyss over there but then we've got this strip the the edge of the spit is directly east so do we do we have anything we could be here ok Conor's stronghold don't see an island oh is that the island could be could be but there should be another little tiny Island as well not seeing that or could we be sort of here could we be there and we're looking out no it's not directly east then is it we can't be on the island that's a bit silly so I'm starting to wonder if the compass is wrong um so in which case we need to consider other options well do can we get can we get the sun where's the Sun ah we can get the sun look at that that's South that would back that would back it up guys that would back it up beautifully so I do think we've got to go down here then I'm going to go here okon stronghold on derua Island let's go for it oh my goodness ah that makes that makes a bit of sense I don't know exactly what we were looking at there there's so many

little bits and Bobs we got that that that I don't think we were looking at Far East but there we were we've dropped 13 points but we've still got a mighty old score I dropped by far the most points on by far the easiest Lake to locate but here we are on the final round and we're on a road once more we've had a mixture now this is going to be a US state again and there's the US flag just in the background of these two Keen fishermen uh that helps us well it doesn't really help us we can't be in Canada can we um because their Lakes are gigantic this looks to me quite East Coast quite New England or maybe a bit further south it's going to it's going to have to be a case of looking at the map and finding something shapewise that fits we're lucky here to have this road that cuts through because I imagine there's a bridge further on or maybe this is a dead end maybe it just Services you know these these marinas and boat houses and properties but this feature will will help us and the compass is going to work so that's North so we're looking up on this Eastern part what I thought was the eastern part is North and then that's South so I've got a bit of a map of it in my head let's just go into a state that we think is likely what about Pennsylvania Pennsylvania what's hard is to to actually hang on a minute don't tell tell me I found it no no I was going to no no no no I haven't I haven't I was going to say though what's what's going to be hard is finding the biggest lake in each one because as you saw in China it can be quite hard to actually decide which one's biggest and that's not even taking into account the ones that straddle two states like New York for example oh number plate not yellow so that rolles out New York not entirely but but yeah it it does Massachusetts there's a big lake that's obviously the biggest lake in Massachusetts Quabbin Reservoir fishing area that doesn't look to me like our Lake Vermont I presume it would be this absolutely gigantic Lake I think it would be more Piney up there I really really do I don't think we're up there Maine I'm going to leave alone for now New Jersey would have slightly yellow plates so I'll leave that for now Maryland I like the sound of Maryland because it's a little bit further south here's a lake that's North remember I don't think that quite adds up Delaware it's got hardly any lakes in it that's to see right we're going to have to speed things up in a bit because I'm struggling to find this lake or even the correct state for that matter what about Virginia that's the biggest one in Virginia I don't know about that are we further south than I thought here are we just yeah are we just you know you know North [Music] Carolina that's got to be it if this ain't it no this has got to be it I've been searching for ages guys um in probably at least 10 or 12 States I've arrived at this one Lake North man which me and Greg actually drove past funnily enough on our way uh to yeah down to Columbia but anyway big lake in North Carolina so a bit further south than I initially thought but I I will admit I've been searching also in Alabama and Georgia and South Carolina but for a while I was searching for this sort of thing but they're mostly Bridges they're going to have a gap for a boat and then then I started thinking well maybe this is like a spit you know that is a dead end basically and and that's I think well let's just make sure yeah you got this little creek Here There and we've got the space to the north and to the South I'm I've searched that much that I'm almost certain that this is correct so yeah good I knew it had to be cuz genuinely

in today's video I'm going to be taking you guys through some diverse world seeds and just explaining my entire thought process so that you guys can have a better idea of what goes through my mind when I'm able to get rounds really quickly so instead of going really quickly I'm going to be giving you my full thought process this video is also kind of an advertisement for my second Channel where I do really similar videos every single day so if you want to get better at the game then you should be following that every day it's really really beneficial I would say but okay let's get into the first one today so the link for this game will be in the description you can check that out hit the link and play it before you watch me here so that when you watch this you can uh compare it to your own guesses and see where I was able to gain some extra Insight over you okay first one here is interesting so let's break it down uh we'll have advanced tips and beginner tips in this video what I like to say first is look at the roadland so we've got white outer lines here with the yellow single Inner Line obviously we have polls here to help us out but first off this yellow single inner line is not found in too many places and especially because we have this this Asian language here we can really break it down so yellow single in a line you can see in Thailand in Southeast Asia you could see it in Japan and South Korea as well normally Taiwan would be using a double yellow line and then many of these other countries like like Indonesia could also have it as well so that's basically covering most of it I think Cambodia as well but yeah it's fairly common in Asia but then in Sri Lanka and in Bangladesh and in Malaysia you would not see it so you can immediately rule out some countries like that when you see this um we also have concrete poles with kind of dots all the way down them and this kind of big spike at the top and that is definitely something that you'd see this big spike at the top you definitely see that in Japan and Korea most commonly so basically narrowed it down to those two already and then we have this black and yellow guard on it um which does not go all the way down to down to the ground that should be somewhere in Korea because the Japanese one would have vertical stripes whereas these ones are horizontal um or not horizontal but diagonal um let's have some Farmland here which makes me think more of the South um are they black rock walls there I'm just trying to think this could be Jay Drew because in Jeju you have black rock walls but I think this is just something that's been burned let's check it out do we have any black broccols here to be honest it doesn't really feel like Jeju I think these mountains in the background are too far distant um so yeah I wouldn't go Jeju here instead I would probably go somewhere in the south of the country like this ends

up being 43 kilometers away so a really nice start there um so we'll make that a one country streak and head into the next round here okay next one um we don't have Google car here I've intentionally blocked that out so that we are teaching more less reliant on meta tips which I think will serve us better when the new generations of cameras come out and stuff like that um okay so this one immediately feeling like Europe with this architecture right um one thing I would say is like if you see a road without any markings and it seems like quite a wealthy or a wealthier country um then it's less likely to be like North America more likely to be um Europe so especially because it's quite thin as well if if if you couldn't go two cars abreast if it's only enough room for one car to really travel it's more of a European thing I would say definitely let's take a look here at some of these houses so we've got like some like kind of red tiled roofs here some of the houses are kind of black and made of wood which is interesting um as for poles they seem to be made of wood or is that concrete it's actually kind of hard for me to say here this again is actually kind of hard to say we have hooks on either side like that um this kind of hooked pole is most famously found in Latvia but with this amount of healiness we know we're not in lavier like you'd never see a hill that tall in Latvia um in fact the whole baltics are quite flat so moving down towards maybe the more Balkan side of things you do see this kind of hooked pole like that quite commonly in Bulgaria not really sure if this is Bulgaria but it could be found there also I feel like Slovenia and Croatia quite often haven't maybe even Montenegro as well so that's kind of that's kind of some thoughts here we have kind of like a reddish soil which I'm not really sure how to interpret either but okay let's check out the sky here because we have some mini Rifts so I do wonder if that could maybe indicate that we were in a Montenegro because obviously Montenegro and Albania are the countries where you do have bigger Rifts often in the sky but we don't really see those so I don't know um taking a look at the rest of the architecture and everything I do think it could fit for Montenegro obviously we don't have that kind of typical like Rocky uh Mountain face that you would often see there um so I don't want to get baited here um so let's just take a look this house almost feels like a bit Austrian in the way that I would expect to like see in Slovenia or maybe in Croatia but the rest of it is kind of generic so yeah this one's actually kind of a difficult round I I may end up going the wrong country here I think my instinct is one of these three countries I would be surprised if it's not one of the Eastern countries that I've mentioned here um and I think I may just go from Montenegro because of these mini Rifts in the sky although as I said they can be found in other countries and I would not be surprised to be wrong here um but okay if it was Montenegro I would say maybe maybe further in the south of the country like somewhere like this and not too confident maybe I should go Slovenia or even I don't know yeah architecture it's all it's all a bit ambiguous I can even see possibly Serbia yeah Serbia is not impossible um especially because we can't see the car whereas so we would normally have no idea but we can't see that of course okay so I could hedge it in Serbia that's not actually a bad idea I think maybe I should have you in Serbia here well I've talked a lot and I think I'm just gonna make my guess here I'm gonna hedge it in Serbia and it was actually

Context: evening


just over the Border in Montenegro so we lose the country there but get quite a good score okay that's good to know um and so sometimes in montenegger you won't see the full Rifts okay next one here is pretty straightforward with the language but let's talk about how uh this round is getable so this kind of black and white um diagonal um sticker on the pole is quiet Russian we also have like all white Road lands which you definitely see in Russia we have these long white number plates which don't have a blue strip we have this red and white um kind of uh thing on the pole which is actually quite a Russian thing to do um houses off uh feel quite Russian here green roof quite a Russian thing to do um not super common but if you see it you can definitely consider Russia uh round speed signs here obviously and The Ballad spam at the intersection this is a big one so Russia at Russia a big kind of Highway in sections which you'll see quite a lot in this coverage you often have these ballards with the black top and uh not necessarily with a black top but you often see like a whole bunch of them lining the whole um in section so um obviously then we also have this Russian language here and so now we've got to think about where this is so I'm looking at these trees they are really tall oftentimes really tall trees are somewhere around Moscow or a bit north of Moscow however I'm not so sure about this round whether that actually fits let's have a really dense bunch of like Birch trees here when you see a really dense birch trees that can that can often indicate like kind of like an obviously be as crass noise kind of area so I actually think I'll put my marker there for now as I look at the rest of the round because obviously Russia it's a hard country and so I could not I could not guarantee that I'll get close here at all um we do have some hilliness because that could fit for that kind of area of the country um harmatta would definitely help here but obviously we're going with that car um yeah it's just these trees that feel a bit more Moscow area but but yeah actually looking at these ones I I do kind of like further out now it could just be kind of two men um kind of Euros kind of area as well and kind of worried that it might be more so there um but I do yeah I do get the feeling that somewhere between here and here that's really my guess with these kind of really clumped tall trees um like this this this particularly looks quite Siberian and kind of middle Siberian okay so I have to make up my mind here again it's not an easy round so I'm just I just want to take my whole thought process in here as for me I think I may actually go Truman here instead of going further east but I guess we'll find out here I'll let us guess in human itself and it

Context: evening


will be actually just in Moscow okay so uh I thought the uh tree those dense trees might have been more of a uh of a Siberian looking one but I was wrong uh the tall the really tall kind of orange barked trees uh where I guess the clue there and that's really kind of a Moscow area thing so at least I mentioned it but uh was not able to get too close there unfortunately it's still an okay score but nothing nothing very good okay next one here we have fairly obvious clues for the country so let's run through it so first off we're noticing we've got um blue strips on all the plates that's definitely useful um we have another number plate meta over there but let's take a look over this Direction first okay signage and language obviously do help as well um we do have these uh pedestrian crossing signs with only four dashes a characters that only use four dashes so Sweden and Norway two that only use four dashes I'm trying to think of on my feet one of the country is actually only used four because most countries in Europe use five or three um with some exceptions but they're the only ones that come to mind at the moment tell me in the comments if you can think of any others once you have all these long dashes on the outside of the road here this time it's actually quite useful so these would be like half the length in Sweden but you get this length in Norway also we know it's Norway because of this green normal plate over here on the service fan I can't really think of anywhere else that you'd see that on a van or that you may see that these days in Eastern Europe a lot of times green number plates indicate um like electronic Vehicles so that's also uh worthwhile to know I don't know where this place is um but I do get the feeling this could be kind of like Central uh in Norway or maybe southern um although I don't see I don't see Northern as absolutely impossible either I'm just not really sure so I think I might click Center here because I'm yeah I just don't really know uh there was something else I wanted to mention here obviously architecture would help out it looks like we're on some kind of a skiing like town or something like that I don't know where skiing actually happens but I suppose like where some of these toilet Peaks I might might be it but I guess my my real thought was to click over here just as a bit of a hedge as well because I don't really know where this is um but yeah definitely definitely going to be annoying that's something else I wanted to mention I think I forgot so let me know if you in the comments if you uh see anything else in this round

but I will guess right now and it was just like down near the biggest mountains here which makes sense uh and was that actually ski Town it was very touristy for sure but I don't see any skis slopes so maybe just a tourist town instead but hey not bad oh we got the right country again and the last one of the first seed here is looking like it's going to be somewhere in um well actually let's take a look around here so first off uh first things first let's take a look at the number plates so this looks like a shorter number blade here which is very useful when you have this kind of Latin American Vibe because some countries use longer number plates and some shorter so this one also kind of feels like it's going to be a short number plate rather than a longer one now this one is really hard to tell but I think the number plate actually ends like that from what we've seen on the other cars it would make sense if the normal plate was also shorter here I think um we have wooden poles as well which is definitely interesting I I could not say uh this is a particularly easy round because I think the country we're in does normally use uh does normally use concrete poles instead of wooden ones so a little bit of bait here potentially um we do have quite a few Palms here um like the whole the whole Bible around is a bit Greener um than maybe what I would have expected um do we have like a number plate there almost feels a bit black but I don't think we're actually using black normal plates here this church architecture is certainly interesting as well although I don't know if I could really say anything specific about it okay moving on here um the sun here is to the South which I think is probably the biggest clue if you if you weren't really clued in with the number plates here the Sunbeam to the South is huge here because that really cuts off you know Argentina and Brazil almost to Brazil uh where you might be tempted to guessing around like this with quite reddish soil it's about the same but yeah with these wooden poles with this predominance of wooden poles it shouldn't be Brazil with the sun there it shouldn't be Argentina so we should be looking at Mexico here with short number plates and with the with the with the these poles um as I said Mexico would normally use like octagonal concrete poles but it is possible to see so many wooden ones and I almost get the feeling we might be very close to the United States here especially because on this bus it says stop instead of Alto which it normally would say Alto on stop signs in in uh in Mexico um also we have like three American trucks in a row here I think to see three like Chevrolets or Ford pickup trucks in a row inside um like South America would be quite unlikely whereas in Mexico it's quite common and then finally we also have like a Coca-Cola dispenser here and they love Coca-Cola in Mexico so that's also something to note okay with this many Palms we shouldn't be too far from water um I'm thinking like kind of this region over here um it could even just be like like near Tijuana like Mexicali kind of area but yeah I do I do not want to guess too far from the US border here just because the amount of wooden poles but yeah I think I'll go somewhere over here um maybe like this kind of this kind of region here I mean we can always check the angle of the road and it seems like it actually might be on a grid here so that could actually work um but yeah it's gonna be somewhere in northern Mexico let's just give this a

Context: evening


go and it was actually in that kind of area there 28 kilometers away I think also this area has some more Red Dirt so that's actually a really nice guess making up for some of our poorer guesses in that one so let me know how you did on that first seed probably many of you beat me because of my lackluster Russia and uh uh no I guesses but uh let us head into another one here and hopefully uh improve on 20 000 which is certainly improvable on okay next link is also in the description so go ahead and play that and our first one here is a pretty obvious country for me um so let's run through why exactly that is okay so we've got reddish dirt here we've got a lot of corrugated iron roofs and we also have have a taxi here with yellow panels on it so uh with yellow novel plates and taxis with yellow panels this should mean we're going to be somewhere in Ghana pretty straightforward round especially because you guys will be playing with the Google car which um is pretty obvious for Ghana so we have kind of biggest mountains here uh mountains in Ghana kind of like along this section here and then South and around Kumasi um I think I may have had this round before the town feels familiar to me um but regardless we have wooden poles here um generally speaking uh Nigeria and Senegal would both use more concrete poles whereas Ghana is more of a wooden pole country which is definitely useful if you're playing no car no Compass or nmpz or something like that and we have these big ditches which also definitely fits for Ghana as well any other the other normal place is the big one here because yellow France and Rears should really just be Ghana here also a bit of English as well I can only assume uh the the crossbars are also kind of like thin metal here so well which fits and then also we have like big bulbs here which can fit for like Ghana or Nigeria quite often so I think this is someone new Kumasi is as far as I remember I think I've had this round before maybe a year ago or something but I think I remember so let's see if I'm right about that and

Context: evening


yeah it was there I kind of remembered where that was so there we go a very good score to start us off with but yeah that kind of area is quite green and hilly so keep that in mind okay next one here we once again have that Spike on the top of the pole this one looking a little bit different though um and I'll take a look around here yeah okay yeah good to know okay so this uh is Japan we have the low camera here we've got that that kind of wide blur um we are set up for left-hand drive as well so if you couldn't tell us low camera should be left hand drive and that would pretty much exclude um South Korea because the sun is on the left hand side of the road here um this is an interesting one I honestly thought that this would be somewhere in southern Japan just based on this kind of long grass now I'm starting to doubt myself I think this actually could be quite a bit further north than I initially anticipated um so I don't really know I'm not I'm not a Japan expert so that's really worth bearing in mind here we have this uh black and yellow kind of guy wire here and I'm pretty sure black and yellow guy wires are mosh koku and then more Northern Japan and the thing that makes me actually think this is maybe Northern Japan here is these um like red and white poles here which I definitely think can be found around the place but are common in Northern Japan like in this kind of area here so that's where I think we are I'm kind of worried that this is all the way wrong and that we could be Southern here but it doesn't look like the solid guy why and those tend to be pretty consistent I also don't really know about the plates that I found on the poles here which are also useful um I yeah I'm just not too sure um it's not too Madness and you do kind of get quite a few flat regions around this part of the country especially near the coast so I could see it I might just hedge kind of here I'm hoping it's not on shikoku or something like that but um I'm kind of using these poles as my as my evidence here because this grass almost feels a bit more Southern um but it almost feels a bit like Coastal as well Vibes wise so we'll see here I'm just gonna go for the S and

Context: evening


we'll be correct or not okay was actually on this peninsula here so I don't really know how the other guy wires work here it's not a bad score we're actually not that far away uh by Japan standards there but uh you know it's a fairly easy Japan so that's at least good with low camera always helps out okay next one here uh countries immediately obvious from when I load in so let's uh try and break that down okay so the double yellow line in the center of the road is actually quite useful here obviously double yellows um and uh meaning more often the you know the United States uh or South America or something like that um definitely in countries that prefer to use double yellows you can see it all around as well as I've said earlier in the video type one you can even see in Japan in New Zealand and all around the spot but yeah you know run around like this kind of flat concrete pole um kind of uh this American looking style a styles of like green and white text sign should be somewhere in like North or South America here now um I would actually say Vibes wise this is this is really quite an Argentinian Uruguayan looking Round And even still it looks much more Argentinian than it looks Uruguayan but that could just be confirmation bias because this can't be Uruguayan because in Uruguay instead of using double yellows they would have a double yellow with a white Dash in the center of it which we just do not have at all here and so that should mean we're in Argentina also this round poll with this particular pole top which is kind of like a bar almost looks like a bow or something like that that's Argentinian uh maybe you can find it in like Peru as well um but yeah yeah it should be just Argentinian here with this landscape uh yeah and also we don't see any mountains and obviously in the vast majority Peru you would see mountains so that's also helping okay so I think this is kind of like somewhere around here between Cordoba and nequan somewhere I'm not exactly sure where my hedge closer to Cordoba here um and uh yeah that's about all I have to say on this one it's fairly simple with the uh with the poles and the road markings so let's just go there and uh

Context: evening


it was actually near the Queen instead should have gone further south but that's okay it was very green for that area often starts to get a bit drier by it then and your next round is kind of interesting this is one I would not say I know the country immediately so let's check it out I've got a sign which is uh red um outlined diamond or triangle which is uh set up for right hand drive so that that kind of a style of signage is most common in Europe and Africa with the uh with the um triangle we have like some fruit trees here so I feel like a warmer climate we have some like potentially holy poles here I would say these are probably holy poles so that definitely helps out um concrete pods with holes in them and we already know Romania Hungary and Poland are the three countries that love to do those these ones definitely seem thicker so Poland better to be cut out so it should be a Romania or hungry and this landscape kind of rolling uh with some more wooden poles as well I don't know it can be either it can still be either here and one thing that makes me think this is actually still possibly hungry is that this looks like another sign and it looks like it's really tall and small and so that would be a Hungarian type of thing to do but I must say that the rest of the round does feel quite romantic and so I'm thinking of getting somewhere on the border here because this really looks like a Hungarian type of sound where it's like small and high but the rest of the round I probably would have gone Romania so that's kind of my thought process here um it almost feels like a Romanian sign as well so I think I really do click right on the border here maybe maybe even just in Romania because I just feel like the landscape fits better anything else to say here a lot of crops feels quite sunny as well they both fit for Romania I would say um White Road lands obviously European thing and then we're lacking any architecture or anything like that so you can kind of distinguish the two countries from architecture quite often but uh yeah on this occasion maybe not do I trust this sign I feel like I maybe should just trust the sign but no I'm gonna go with my heart here my heart says like Romania on the border so let's

Context: evening


see if I'm right and it was Romania good it ends up being just Southern there um maybe that sign in the distance was not what I thought it was um but yeah we come up with the country Street there so that's always good okay next one here I mean you know the country here so let's break down why exactly this is where it is okay so first off we've got the yellow diamond sign this is the opposite to the European style that we were just looking at it has a thick white uh post here as well which you would not see in Australia so that's at least something also we've got blue street signs here if you have like a Pure Color street sign like a blue one like a yellow one like something like that maybe even green um well I'd say blue and yellow definitely much much more common in New Zealand than Australia um Australia normally uses white ones with some kind of colored text normally just black text so it's really normally that simple um we also do appear to have wooden policy which is interesting and some taller mountains in the north there so this all helps um at this stage in time New Zealand is a country that tends to have more Generation 3 in less populated areas so that's just a good little rule of thumb um or less Generation 4 at least okay we've got Tom popular kind of trees here um yeah I mean there's not really too much else to say I mean this kind of uh style of Chevron is more New Zealand than Australia but it's kind of hard to describe why it's kind of a bit thicker a bit taller um and then uh yeah we got these like long rows of trees which are obviously also fits kind of kind of like Christchurch area so I could see us being kind of like in the outskirts of like Christchurch area even further south anywhere to like I'll say anywhere to Dunedin kind of works here although the mountains in the north feel quite distant so dunedin's obviously quite close to the mountains whereas uh Christchurch it's not that it's not that difficult to like find yourself relatively far from the mountains like in this kind of area I might even go over here to be honest that's kind of my thought here um I definitely think South Island just because of these like huge rows of trees um and wooden poles are often more common in South Island as well so I'll go there see if we're correct about that

Context: evening


ends up being in that kind of area very nice indeed so we had some better guesses there definitely the Ghana the New Zealand uh came out nice and we've got all countries correct and I should have had better on the Argentina I really called it out so let's go for one more game here and see how it happens again in the description if you want to play along and first around here we have an extremely distinctive Road here so uh let me try and drill this one into your brain if you are someone who uh likes to remember some roads on GEOS so uh Chile is one of these countries that occasionally uses all yellow lions and when you have this overcast coverage on a concrete road with like ocean nearby and it feels fairly Southern a bit desolate but also quite green then you should be somewhere on is it the number nine or the number seven what is it the number nine here in southern Chile we also do have ocean here to our East which definitely makes sense for us to be somewhere like around here I would say if we see more kind of land in the distance here slight Hills that definitely fits that definitely fits so I'll assume we're somewhere in like the southern number nine here uh it could even be kind of a bit further up as well and so yeah that's what you're gonna remember all yellows concrete um overcast and uh yeah kind of dreary with a flack of trees but you can see forests as well of course like that so I'd say we just get somewhere around here and hope for the best here and indeed we are right there so very nice 39 kilometers away you can basically get

Бановински пут

three points uh by remembering that road because it's basically the only one in the southern region of Chile post um or like after the uh National Park of Torres Del Paine so there we go oh Pioneer so next one here Eastern European Vibe immediately with this kind of like rusted and colorful fence here um and also this kind of red and yellow a red and white Motif is very uh very Eastern European we've got another one of these triangle signs we've got our White Center Line here as well it's hilly we've got some like corn growing there which also is something you often see in that area of the world without an antenna this is actually a relatively difficult round and countries that come to mind with this kind of dry climate like Romania Ukraine maybe in Serbia maybe even Hungary or Bulgaria that kind of region is really feeling most likely to me here with the healiness about it definitely isolates it to certain areas we with that kind of healiness we probably wouldn't be in eastern Ukraine playing Western Ukraine and Romania kind of vibe here I would say single white line is interesting as well I feel like some of these countries would use this double double white so I'm wondering maybe maybe Serbia is actually quite possible here maybe this is Serbia I don't know about this sign I think roasted rusted signposts are definitely more common in some countries than others but it's definitely a hard hard to put your finger on it but okay if it is sober it's going to be Southern Serbia because Northern Serbia is quiet flat whereas as soon as you get south of Belgrade you start getting those mountains so I would say I would say I would say Serbia is a good a good channel here actually I'm not really sure about the country it could even be further north like uh Croatia Slovenia I just saw I have covered all my bases here in case I'm wrong but I think that's really the possible countries there Slovenia Croatia Hungary Bulgaria yeah without without Google car is difficult but I think I will hit it in Serbia here will be correct we won't

Serbia even quite close yes we're actually on a good score to start off this seed so if we can continue on that luck and we have a yellow sticker on this pole uh so in Japan which we are again here with this low camera uh small cars have yellow number plates that's also another nice little tip here if they ever don't do Japan with low cam then you can definitely use that to your advantage this yellow sticker I feel like that might be you know this kind of central region here like gifu or something fukui or something like that I'm not really sure nagorno maybe even I forget um taking a look at the architecture here look like a flat roof we don't really have enough flat roofs to really get anything from that we have again this kind of uh black and yellow striped um guy wire which we last time saw in this region so maybe I even go in Chicago or something like that because that's when we had the last round with that but obviously as I said that's kind of like a North or Chicago thing this could certainly be north um I don't really see anything that I yeah this this this plug here is longer which I I think is something you see in the South and the North um like Hokkaido but the yellow one I really don't know I just need to learn my Japan matters at some point to get their guesses because they are really useful this is again a longer um a longer like kind of plaque here so I do Wonder uh whether this could be Hokkaido indeed I mean it certainly could be the head the head just kind of blocking our view and this amount of trees is a bit suspicious for Hokkaido but maybe I do guess further north here again that may actually be the viable option here instead but I hope I don't click away from the actual answer I'm gonna go I'm gonna go North here again as a hedge let's actually see about that and it was all the way South this time Yamaguchi
