    I've noticed a slight error in my research that went into this video. The route that I presented in this video still features a ferry across the Aldan River in Russia! So if you're gonna do it idk, maybe just like swim across it you know? It's probably safer than walking through some of the other countries. Anyway, if you wanna watch documentaries that don't feature goofy mistakes head over to CuriosityStream and watch everything for free for 31 days: www.curiositystream.com/reallifelore

      It's shown on Google that it is the furthest someone has walked continuously on foot. A distance of 19,019 miles divide by 2,452 days equals 7.76 miles a day...
      Not to mention that there are some obstacles when it comes to climates, wild animals, and say bad people.
      But is quite impressive as he completed his journey, but taking that for so long is kinda slow in my opinion.

    As someone who loves hiking/backpacking.... I kinda wanna do this ;)
    It could be reworked into a FEASIBLE route I think, avoiding war zones at least. Some problems can be mitigated, but not eliminated. Malaria and black mambas.... well... if you are going to travers Africa on foot, there is no way around that. But you _can_ avoid South Sudan. There is just zero realistic way you can walk across that nation safely. You have to divert around. There is a slightly longer Zambia to Tanzania to Kenya to Ethiopia route that should be a fair bit safer (without doing any real research on that route, I could be VERY wrong). The best thing you can do to mitigate risk from wildlife and mosquitos at this point? Hire good local guides for each leg of the trip. Each guide that knows the area hands you off to the next. Trust the local experts to keep you from picking a fight with a Rhino. So if you stay out of warzones and mitigate wildlife risk, this starts to look 'doable'.
    I also think to make it feasible you have to loosen rules on ferries. Ferry or deadly hike on foot across Sahara in Egypt? I think to be feasible you take the ferry the shortest distance possible to get you back on a safe hiking route.
    Syria is.... the serious problem. No real route around it. Iraq? Better, but still not safe to hike. Iran? They arrested western backpackers not long ago.
    So my proposal? Take a boat from Lebanon to Turkey..... and make up for it with a longer land route around the Black Sea.... go WEST around it, through Istanbul, Bulgaria, Romania and Ukraine, then into Russia and largely the same route you had......
    But you can't avoid winter in Siberia.... so another concession is needed. I propose for the Siberian leg that a pack animal be allowed. You are still walking, but you will need a more serious shelter and stove to survive Siberia on foot.
    This modded route comes out to 25,228km and 5019 hrs. (3.45 years using the 20km per day estimate) Yes, some of it was 'cheating' with a ferry, but the longer route more than makes up for any walking 'saved' by taking a boat. And I cheat again by using a pack animal in Siberia... but you need a serious tent, wood stove etc to survive out there, you can walk it, but not with all the gear you need on your back.
    I think these fairly small tweaks make this hike vaguely possible.
    Then, well, if we are bending rules on boats.... charter a ship from Magadan to Anchorage.... and start heading South until you get to Tierra del Fuego.... although this route take you through the most dangerous and fearsome nation of all..... Canada ;)

      This is actually a good idea. RLL just uses the assumption that you're hiking with little equipment and "live off the land". Any trip like this requires a whole lot of planning and backups. I mean he didn't say we can't use animals, so some sort of supply sled/cart is needed if we're crossing the desert/Siberia. I also favor bending the rules because it's not feasible in current circumstances to do this suicidal mission.

    Interestingly enough, you could probably go much further than this if you took google maps out of the equation and made it so that you could walk across ice. If you were to pack enough equipment and had enough help, one could theoretically walk past Magadon, all the way to the eastern most point of Russia, and if you arrived during the height of winter, there’s a chance that the Bearing Straight could freeze over and you could walk all the way to Alaska, and then hypothetically be able to walk all the way down to Punta Arenes in Chile. (You would also have to cross the Darian Gap in Panama, but many people have done it before)

    I done the math and calculated that if you ran at 5.84 mph (which google says is the average run speed of an adult male) it would take 102 days of straight running to make this journey and you would burn around 2 million calories not including the uphill and downhill areas for extra strain.

    Longest route idea: start in Cape Town, South Africa and hug the western coast of Africa till Morocco where you cross the strait of Gibraltar into Europe. Walk across Europe then into Turkey. From there, either go into Azerbaijan then straight through Russia or go through all of the middle east (once again along the coast line of the nearest body of water), walk along the Indian ocean coast line, through China then into Russia. From Russia, cross the bearing straight into north America, walk through Alaska, Canada,The US and Mexico then cross the Panama Canal. Get through the Amazon rainforest and end the walk in Terria de Fuego in Chile

    123 km elevation change up and back down again is actually surprisingly low considering the length of the walk. It's roughly an average gradient of 1%. in my country it's hard to find such an even path, although we have rather flat areas too. But probably not as flat as most deserts.

I'm walking with a inflatable paddle board to cross small bodies of water and a 90 liters backpack full of equipaments - including tents, sleeping bag, clothes etc.. I'm also carrying a satellite emergency beacon, which I've used twice so far, but nothing too serious. Locals have been helping me hugely with food and acommodation, especially in Mozambique where they speak my language. I'm carrying enough water purifications tablets for hundreds of liters of water + dozens of sawyer filters. I took all the preventions on malaria, with antimalarial drugs and it's been working thus far. There were sector where I cheated and took the car - especially heavily forested areas. Didn't see a black mamba in my trip so far and I hope I wont be seeing one. August 11, 2021. Currently in the city of Mbeya.

    You can actually walk further east through Russia its just that there are no roads. Also, the Bering Strait freezes in winter and so you could theoretically cross from Russia to the USA (2 guys crossed in 2006). That allows you to continue your journey all the way through to Cape Froward in Chile, the southernmost point in South America mainland. Although you would have to contend with the Darian Gap, an extremely dangerous patch of the rainforest with no roads and dense rainforest where foreigners have been killed in the past. But then again you would probably be dead long before you reach it. The estimated trip according to google maps would be 46,124km and at 20km a day this 'walk' would take you about 6 years and 4 months

    So... Does anyone want to do this world walk with me? It'll be from L'Agulhas, South Africa to the Southernmost tip of South America in Argentina near the southernmost town of Ushuaia.
    I'm quite confident that this walk could take about 5 years if I or we can walk at a certain comfortable pace, but be prepared to walk long distances within a day to complete such challenge.
    There will be plenty of obstacles that'll come our way regarding with border crossings, type of climate and terrain, wild animals, bad people, weather, and some others. The most challenging of all would have to go to the Easternmost part of Siberia (Lots of rivers and mountainous terrain, and no roads), and then the Bering Strait (Which freezes some parts of the year, and will have to cross it to Alaska).
    Since that we're crossing the Bering Strait from Russia to the US, we're gonna have to go around the Big Diomede island (Russia) and onto Little Diomede island (US) and the time will change drastically when crossed. Be sure to have a legal passport with you.
    Then we'll have to travel through the Alaskan terrain until upon arriving in Fairbanks to where there's a road to walk alongside on.
    Other obstacles would be the Darien Gap in Panama and Colombia as there are no roads through this dense jungle that stretches up around 90 miles. And then there's a large river in a marsh area, so unless there's a bridge, we'll need to go around it, and it's a long path around.
    And then the Atacama desert, then we arrive at the destination at the southern tip!
    I'd say really exercise your walking for around 2.5-3 hours a day or more, just to prepare, or go out for a hike with a bag full of stuff.
    I or we'll be walking for the majority of the day, and I'm planning on actually doing this within probably a few years or more.
    If no one wants to come, then I guess I'll travel alone, take pictures, vlog my journey, and could have many opportunities that'll come with it. Let's hope I or we survive this. 😁
    And I've done my research on Google Earth, Google Maps, and some articles. The furthest a person walked on foot was 19,019 miles from the Southernmost tip of South America to the northernmost part of Alaska in 2,425 days by George Meegan. So surely this'll beat his record!
    Feel free to comment below!
    Oh and don't say that I can't do it, because it can be done.

      So it just has to exclude the Middle East, most of Africa and probably all of it since you can't go through the Middle East, and the Arctic Circle & Siberia. I made a route from Gibraltar, Spain, to Ca Mau Vietnam that had a few other stops along the way to go around the war ravaged bits of the Middle East, and it was about 17,000 KM, which is still a lot shorter than the walk in this video, and you still have to walk through the desert of Kazakhstan, but I reckon it may be survivable. Google, 6 Travelers Who Walked Around The World, a lot of these people walked even longer than the walk in this video is, they just didn't meet the beginning of the video requirements.
