Me in Portugal: Would you mind if I do a quick test drive? (Eight days later when I return to Portugal via plane) Car salesman: So where is the car? Me: Oh I parked it right next to the Kim Jong-Un’s statue at the North-Korean/Russian customs checkpoint
LegoGuy87 yeah but if you’re already driving for 6 days (which is 144 hours), 19 hours is a piece of cake. 19 hours is like 13% of the trip, so if he says “6 days, it’s not even close!”, you’d expect a few more days. 19 hours is not even a whole day, so I feel like it’s kind of a bummer

@@vandalic8566 Well, he is not. The map projections problem matters North to South, so the northern part of Russia appears bigger than it actaully is. As the route goes West to East it is not influenced by that map projection issue.
Then if Japan and Korea build a bridge or tunnel, the furthest distance would be from Sagres, Portugal to Oma in Aomori. The only physical connection from southern Japan to Hokkaido is by rail, so it doesn't count.
There’s a longer one. You can drive from Capetown to Cairo and then Cairo to Khasan Russia crossing the Suez Canal by bridge. They already said bridges were legal at the Panama Canal. There appears to be a problem at Lake Nubia where you have to take a ferry (according to Google maps), but if you go straight at the Al Multaqa cafeteria instead of turning right as Google maps shows, you can stay on the left side of the Nile most of the way and avoid the ferry. This trip would be 14,099 miles, 5373 miles further than their example. Not good for a premier.
The Cape to Cairo route is well trodden by bikers, and you don't need to take any ferries, just cross bridges and many borders. This video is misleading and wrong
The route from Pointe-Noire in Kongo to the same place in Russia is actually longer. By 7302 km.... (It also takes 12 days to travel according to Google maps...) Yes, we "can't" drive from the very tip of Africa due to a ton of rivers without bridges, but that doesn't mean we can't drive from a place very far down in Africa. Now, we can actually continue for another 5+ thousand km down to Durba in South Africa, this still only uses roads, but it does need us to drive over a road that is part of a residential area. So it is illegal to just drive straight through. (but nothing stops one from visiting someone there and then continuing on the journey. (And yes, Google maps doesn't actually want to use such roads if one just plots down two points on a map, one needs to force it to take the road. (And yes, it took me some time to find this road...))) So that means that we can technically drive from Durba in South Africa, all the way to Khasan in Russia while only using actual roads, tunnels and bridges. A journey of some 26537 km that according to Google maps will require 14 days and 15 hours of continuous driving. (Now, this might not actually be a mistake on HAI's part, the video is from late 2017, and I make this comment in 2020.)
@@jamcdonald120 A lot of roads north of Pointe-Noire have existed for a fairly long time and Point-Noir to the town in Russia is already noticeably longer than from the town in Portugal. This has been the case since long before this video were published. In short, the route from Portugal is based on really outdated information.
@@Z3t487 To pass the Suez Canal there is 1 bridge and 2 tunnels to choose from. Technically one doesn't get directly to Europe, but rather the middle east, but there is road connections from here over to both Asia and Europe. But Google maps for unknown reasons doesn't feel like prioritizing this route and rather takes a ferry to Spain/Portugal even if one forbids it from using ferries..... ie, one needs to put down a marker on the highway nearby to say, "I want to make a stop here."
8726 miles in 163 hours is travelling at a speed of 53.5 mph. Let's make it more realistic and enjoyable for the traveller. Plan would be travel for 6-7 hours at 50-55mph which would result in a distance of 350 miles (All rounded to a nice figure). Stay at destination for 6-8 hours sleep, leaving 9-12 hours to explore area. This means 24 hours = 350 miles travelled. Therefore, it would take 25 days to travel the full distance.
Ok, but why do you use miles and on what basis do you choose a 50-55 mph speed limit? Almost everywhere travelled on this route will use kilometres measurement
what sarcasm. I probably subscribed to this channel before there was any video on it. Then I saw this video and recognized his voice. Just now I also saw that wendover posted a video about this on his main channel.
@@BranMan10 No it wasn’t, and the route he said was the longest isn’t even the longest because he should’ve started in Cape Town and just crossed the Suez Canal
I don't quite get the reason why you can't start in South Africa? So are there no continous roads from there to the bridges over the Suez canal? Or from there to wherever in Russia?
I don't get it either why you don't count the road from South Africa through the Middle East to Russia. Yes, you said "only the shortest routes between two points count", but you discount that because there is a faster route which involves a ferry (through Europe)? By the same logic you might as well discount everything because a plane is faster...
Yeah, that confused me too. I only have one explanation that kind of makes sense to me, which is "because Google Maps didn't give that route". If we're really looking for the shortest routes by distance, then you wouldn't be taking mostly highways either, since many local/rural roads run more straight than highways and so are shorter. That would make checking all possible "shortest" paths an enormous amount of work. So I'm guessing he took a shortcut and just relied on whatever Google Maps said was the best route.
No, that is an bad idea. Richard at this distance would have abaut 40-60 accidents, James would be lost even on a streight for 6000 km siberian road and Jeremy will be finaly killed by both for his stupid ideas.

I defeated this in Google Maps. The route you propose from Khasan Russia to Sagres Portugal is 14,022km. And sure -- that is likely the longest "Safe" route (without ferries). In this video, you gloss over the security situation in the Middle East // East Africa. And sure, many parts of the Middle East and East Africa can be dangerous and are dangerous today. However, we are speaking in theory. There are several possible routes longer than what you described. Here is one. If you originate in Khasan Russia and continue across Russia, heading south at Saratov to Volgograd and then onward to Tbilisi in Georgia. Now, there needs to be a note. It will likely be dangerous to go any further. The considerations depend on what country you are a citizen of, what languages you speak, who your friends are, etc. However, speaking of times before Covid -- and speaking as an American citizen -- if Covid ended today -- and if you had a lot of balls -- You could go from Georgia through Turkey and to the Ibrahim Khalil border crossing into Iraqi Kurdistan. Before COVID, if you were a US citizen you could pass through here with a proper 6-month visa from the Iraqi government. Whether it is safe to do so is another question. Now you are in Iraq. The average normal person should not go here right now. Without trusted and secure friendly contacts within the country, I would personally be on the good foot driving, looking to get into and out of the country as quickly as possible. With that said, I would not transit the western frontier. It is very dangerous. I would attempt to blend in by driving through Mosul and onto Baghdad. From Baghdad, you are going to the western frontier with Jordan. Cross into Jordan at Karameh border crossing. Now take a deep breath. You are on relatively safe turf again. If ferries were allowed, you could take a ferry across the Red Sea from Jordan to Egypt and not have to cross into Israel. However since we stipulate no ferries, you need to cross into Israel, likely at the Jordan River Border Crossing. From there, continue on to Tel Aviv. From Tel Aviv, you will head south to Taba border crossing, the only border crossing for tourists from Israel into Egypt. You will then go on to Cairo and overland to Aswan. From Aswan if ferries were allowed we would try to take the ferry to Wadi Haifa. However from what I can find online, I believe it is in fact possible to drive a personal car from Aswan into Sudan. Keeping in mind there are no settlements for miles around West of the Nile in the desert. Although it does not show in Google Maps, from the Google satellite photos there does appear to be a manned border crossing west of the Nile overland called the Arqin land border crossing, opened in 2017 goo.gl/maps/hfmshAym9ENUNUdCA I believe the roads are now done on the Sudanese side as well... In Sudan you will go on to Khartoum and cross into Ethiopia on to Gondar and then Addis Ababa. From Addis you can drive overland through Kenya and the rest of East Africa all the way South to ZA and onto Cape Town. I have never been to SE Africa so I will leave that up to someone else, but Google routes you pretty straightforwardly. Here is the journey on Google Maps -- it clocks in at 23,868km or a whopping 14,080 miles www.google.com/maps/dir/Khasan,+Primorsky+Krai,+Russia,+692730/Ibrahim+Khalil+Border+Crossing,+Iraq/Baghdad,+Iraq/Tel+Aviv,+Israel/Taba,+Egypt/Cairo,+Egypt/Aswan,+Egypt/Khartoum,+Sudan/Addis+Ababa,+Ethiopia/Cape+Town,+South+Africa/@34.4793227,27.0950486,3.96z/data=!4m62!4m61!1m5!1m1!1s0x5fb596808136e70d:0x6e5b668bd85bb5bf!2m2!1d130.651644!2d42.4241158!1m5!1m1!1s0x40091a6e00c2382b:0xd5bd4f7c73073435!2m2!1d42.5710728!2d37.139472!1m5!1m1!1s0x15577f67a0a74193:0x9deda9d2a3b16f2c!2m2!1d44.3660671!2d33.315241!1m5!1m1!1s0x151d4ca6193b7c1f:0xc1fb72a2c0963f90!2m2!1d34.7817676!2d32.0852999!1m5!1m1!1s0x15000b19c6d2624f:0x78755cbe15dafa6e!2m2!1d34.8937208!2d29.4938662!1m5!1m1!1s0x14583fa60b21beeb:0x79dfb296e8423bba!2m2!1d31.2357116!2d30.0444196!1m5!1m1!1s0x14367b5ab1a30e5f:0xfb109fe337cabccb!2m2!1d32.8998293!2d24.088938!1m5!1m1!1s0x168e8fde9837cabf:0x191f55de7e67db40!2m2!1d32.5598994!2d15.5006544!1m5!1m1!1s0x164b85cef5ab402d:0x8467b6b037a24d49!2m2!1d38.7577605!2d8.9806034!1m5!1m1!1s0x1dcc500f8826eed7:0x687fe1fc2828aa87!2m2!1d18.4240553!2d-33.9248685!3e0
Vancover to Toronto. I once drove from Toronto to BC. It took me 3 days just to get out of Ontario. I was in a motorhome, though, and was in no hurry. Long road trips- I just love 'em. I do believe you, by the way. 4 and a half thousand km in 4 days is no prob on good roads and with long spells at the wheel. I did 1000km one day with the motorhome on my road trip. The next day I was knackered.
His question is actually valid if you think about it. Nothing guarantees gas stations being on this direct road route. If surrounding areas and villages have them then locals will have enough gas. But to actually drive on the continuous road only might not be possible.
Watching this video after having seen a WHOLE bunch of HAI’s more recent videos, the tone of the narration is comparatively so dry. It really showcases how much the channel has found its groove, and how much creator enjoys making them
It is possible to drive a much longer distance while following all the criteria you set. We can in fact drive from Cape Town, South Africa to Khasan, Russia without using any ferry. We simply have to cross the Congo river via the Matadi bridge in Matadi, Democratic Republic of the Congo. The total driving distance is then 25 337 km, about 11 000 km more than the route you suggest. To reproduce this route in Google Maps, enter the following way points: Cape Town in South Africa, Matadi in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Pointe Noire in the Republic of the Congo, Eilat in Israel, and Khasan in Russia. Google Maps states that this route would take 345 hours to complete. Happy driving everyone! We could probably get a more direct route by going through Iran and China, but Google Maps stops showing directions as soon as I enter a way point in China. I am guessing this route would be shorter by about 5 000 km, for a total of around 20 000 km.
This route is actually one thousand miles more than that. www.google.com/maps/dir/-34.043277,25.6088615/42.385116,130.7566335/@39.794504,21.5601164,4.05z/am=t/data=!4m30!4m29!1m20!3m4!1m2!1d13.4343463!2d-5.8257096!3s0x1a5cc94c0886edb7:0x22c8367874645242!3m4!1m2!1d3.4644678!2d31.1274529!3s0x126f3c2a80df4bb5:0xd408dca1d6adc16c!3m4!1m2!1d7.8398973!2d33.3379288!3s0x125762ef77b4277d:0x2902704aa7141ff5!3m4!1m2!1d12.9911055!2d32.8251214!3s0x13a8e89ffb090ded:0x31d438256aad4e10!1m0!2m1!3b1!3e0!6m3!1i0!2i1!3i340

Incorrect! I found a much longer route! How? After looking at the border of China and Kyrgyzstan I found out that road A371 actually goes into China (39.694859, 73.923347). Google maps, however, did not add in the roads that is in the vicinity of the A371 loop, so it is actually possible to get off A371 and make it to mainland China! We then have to go to Longchuan, on the border to Myanmar. Once again, google cannot calculate any route from China to Myanmar... but it is possible at 23.980239, 97.897083! From there you take the road to Singapore! Total distance: 18,387km!

Sorry but as others have pointed out, it is possible to drive from Khasan Russia to Brazzaville in the Republic of the Congo with no ferries for a total distance of 21,048 km.
Alice Soaker There is a land border crossing between egypt and israel. The problem is you could only come in one direction because if you go through israel first you won't be able to enter syria.
@NusRad you don't have to go through Syria, but you do need to go through Iraq and Iran. You could always just "lose" your passport in Jordan and get another.
There should be no customs checkpoints between Russia and Belarus (though you need separate visas and paperwork for both). So technically only one checkpoint between EU and Union State of Belarus and Russia.
I got interested and tried looking for more routes on Google Maps. Apparently you can drive from Port Elizabeth, South Africa to Skarsvag, Norway. It is almost 16,800 km long. Pretty cool.

You'd need roughly 24 hours non-stop driving to complete a 2000-km route. So, no. 12000 km is not close to 14000 km by today's standard of car-driving.

It does count, he just didn’t have the resources. You can literally drive north into Algeria, and then east across the Suez Canal. Brazzaville to Khasan without ferries 13,470 miles, which is 5,000 miles more than his silly Sagres adventure
CBaccari's PC Simulation Channel If you set Al Fashir Sudan and Cairo Egypt as waypoints, then you can get to Cape Town South Africa without ferries, a journey of over 27.000km... this video was poorly researched and argued, considering it took me two minutes to find the "avoid ferries" option on Google maps. There actually seems to be a road down the Eastern side of Africa, but Egypt and Sudan don't get along to well, so I guess you can't cross that border.
Aidan Gardiner it’s actually not possible to drive from Sudan directly into Egypt and go up to the Suez Canal without taking a ferry through the Nile River. However, there is a route from Sudan to Egypt via Chad, Niger, and Libya. It’s an extremely dangerous drive but it’s 100% doable (Edit: I just found a route. It is possible, it’s just not mapped on Google Maps)
FunFact Lister you don't need to drive through Sudan for the longest trip. You can drive through Nigeria, Niger, Algeria, and Libya and you can cross the Nile River in Egypt
CBaccari's PC Simulation Channel I’m talking about going from Cape Town to Khasan, not from Brazzaville to Khasan (my apologies for the lack of clarification). What I was trying to say is that if someone would want to get from Cape Town to Khasan without taking a ferry, driving through Sudan would be a requirement (there is also a Central African Republic-South Sudan route but it’s impossible for a real car to make the entire route because of closed borders/towns and extremely poor road/environmental conditions in the latter country)
There is actually a logner route that google maps doesn't list due to China. And An african route as well. You can go via Mongolia or Kazakhstan (Most likely via Kazakhstan) and then on chinese highways, where you can cross down to laos and thailand then down to singapore. Theorectically you can even go via Turkey ->Iraq ->Iran - >Pakistan -> (India if you want to) ->China -> Laos -> Thailand ->malaysia ->singapore. Also, you CAN go from africa to asia IF you have 2 passports, one for... israel. AND if the Taba border crossing reopens or if you can use the upper crossing. Then you can cross into jordan, iraq etc. So the shortest route to Iraq would be: South Africa->Botswana ->Go Via Zimbabwe or Nambia to cross the river -> Zambia ->Tanzania -> Uganda -> South Sudan ->Sudan (Uganda and South Sudan replaced by Kenya and Ethopia for practical crossings) ->Egypt, DON'T GO VIA THE FERRY, GO VIA THE ROAD CROSSING UNLISTED ON GOOGLE MAPS ->Israel (Taba crossing) -> Jordan -> Iraq ->Iran (But a faster, longer route is: Zambia ->DRC->Central African Republic ->Chad->Cameroon->Nigeria->Niger->Algeria->Libya->Egypt (Sure, the visas will be a nightmare) But this route, Pretoria up to Cairo already takes 8755km. (The Chinese, pakistan->India sudan->Egypt crossing aren't on google maps, but they exist if you do some digging)
Note: If you wanted to do this in real life, you would need: A rental car, A LOT of maintanence stuff, spare gas, visas for the countries, A LOT of research, 2 PASSPORTS since you don't want to take the egypt->jordan ferry, you have to go via israel, A LOT of TIME and A LOT OF MONEY.
Also, submiting documents to cross border on your (or rented) car in Africa might take up to 2 weeks per border. And as far as I know, you can't cross Laos border on rented vehicle (may be you may need to hire local driver to go through Laos)
I may be wrong but from "Google Earth" & "Rome to Rio" it seems you can drive from Sagres, Portugal all the way to Singapore. The drive takes you past Moscow, Russia then from there Xinjiang, China then through Bangkok all the way to Singapore. A distance of approximately 10,508.2 miles. with an approx. time of 8 days 1 hour. - fellow map nerd here =) Edit: grammar and found a shorter route between Sagres and Singapore.
The longest drive in history was a test carried out by US Army and AASHTO in the 1950s. They drove around a track continuously for years. It was to test road materials ahead of the Interstate Programme.

ROUND TRIP
Oddly if the Korean reunification happens then the longest route would have been Sagres Portugal to Busan South Korea.
Yep, that may very well become the longest driving distance should the Koreas reunify.
Then if Japan and Korea build a bridge or tunnel, the furthest distance would be from Sagres, Portugal to Oma in Aomori. The only physical connection from southern Japan to Hokkaido is by rail, so it doesn't count.

There’s a longer one. You can drive from Capetown to Cairo and then Cairo to Khasan Russia crossing the Suez Canal by bridge. They already said bridges were legal at the Panama Canal. There appears to be a problem at Lake Nubia where you have to take a ferry (according to Google maps), but if you go straight at the Al Multaqa cafeteria instead of turning right as Google maps shows, you can stay on the left side of the Nile most of the way and avoid the ferry. This trip would be 14,099 miles, 5373 miles further than their example. Not good for a premier.
Thank you. His reasoning for disqualifying Africa didn't really make sense.
The Cape to Cairo route is well trodden by bikers, and you don't need to take any ferries, just cross bridges and many borders. This video is misleading and wrong
Need to keep in mind that the video was made almost 4 years ago
And you can cross border on khasan to NK

MahaerHD - Memes and TH-cam Poops!
The squirrel told him the correct answer
He sees it in his alphabet soup
The route from Pointe-Noire in Kongo to the same place in Russia is actually longer. By 7302 km.... (It also takes 12 days to travel according to Google maps...)
Yes, we "can't" drive from the very tip of Africa due to a ton of rivers without bridges, but that doesn't mean we can't drive from a place very far down in Africa.
Now, we can actually continue for another 5+ thousand km down to Durba in South Africa, this still only uses roads, but it does need us to drive over a road that is part of a residential area. So it is illegal to just drive straight through. (but nothing stops one from visiting someone there and then continuing on the journey. (And yes, Google maps doesn't actually want to use such roads if one just plots down two points on a map, one needs to force it to take the road. (And yes, it took me some time to find this road...)))
So that means that we can technically drive from Durba in South Africa, all the way to Khasan in Russia while only using actual roads, tunnels and bridges. A journey of some 26537 km that according to Google maps will require 14 days and 15 hours of continuous driving.
(Now, this might not actually be a mistake on HAI's part, the video is from late 2017, and I make this comment in 2020.)
I found a similar route, starting in cape town via Pointe-Noire, through Cairo. So maybe its new roads
@@jamcdonald120 A lot of roads north of Pointe-Noire have existed for a fairly long time and Point-Noir to the town in Russia is already noticeably longer than from the town in Portugal. This has been the case since long before this video were published.
In short, the route from Portugal is based on really outdated information.
Russia recently reconnected Magadan in Siberia to their road network so it’s probably the terminus of the longest route now.
Did i miss a tunnel/bridge from Africa to Europe?
@@Z3t487 To pass the Suez Canal there is 1 bridge and 2 tunnels to choose from.
Technically one doesn't get directly to Europe, but rather the middle east, but there is road connections from here over to both Asia and Europe.
But Google maps for unknown reasons doesn't feel like prioritizing this route and rather takes a ferry to Spain/Portugal even if one forbids it from using ferries..... ie, one needs to put down a marker on the highway nearby to say, "I want to make a stop here."
8726 miles in 163 hours is travelling at a speed of 53.5 mph.
Let's make it more realistic and enjoyable for the traveller.
Plan would be travel for 6-7 hours at 50-55mph which would result in a distance of 350 miles (All rounded to a nice figure).
Stay at destination for 6-8 hours sleep, leaving 9-12 hours to explore area.
This means 24 hours = 350 miles travelled.
Therefore, it would take 25 days to travel the full distance.
This is more do-able and sensible 👍
Ok, but why do you use miles and on what basis do you choose a 50-55 mph speed limit? Almost everywhere travelled on this route will use kilometres measurement
osobowy43 because I'm British and it won't make any difference to the calculations. 50-55 just seemed reasonable imo.
Possibly, but Russia is expansive for many hours at a time, so may be driving upwards of 9-10 hours.
You aint hitting anywhere near 50mph on Siberian roads.

Just that? I was expecting more.
I don't quite get the reason why you can't start in South Africa? So are there no continous roads from there to the bridges over the Suez canal? Or from there to wherever in Russia?
I don't get it either why you don't count the road from South Africa through the Middle East to Russia. Yes, you said "only the shortest routes between two points count", but you discount that because there is a faster route which involves a ferry (through Europe)? By the same logic you might as well discount everything because a plane is faster...
I was thinking the same thing. No roads through the middle east?
thumbs up cause planes
Yeah, that confused me too. I only have one explanation that kind of makes sense to me, which is "because Google Maps didn't give that route". If we're really looking for the shortest routes by distance, then you wouldn't be taking mostly highways either, since many local/rural roads run more straight than highways and so are shorter. That would make checking all possible "shortest" paths an enormous amount of work. So I'm guessing he took a shortcut and just relied on whatever Google Maps said was the best route.

Bob MiLaplace the classical world has a meaning, it contains part of Asia and Africa and Europe but does not extend across the sahara or all the way to China

Europe, Asia and Africa.

I defeated this in Google Maps. The route you propose from Khasan Russia to Sagres Portugal is 14,022km. And sure -- that is likely the longest "Safe" route (without ferries).
In this video, you gloss over the security situation in the Middle East // East Africa. And sure, many parts of the Middle East and East Africa can be dangerous and are dangerous today.
However, we are speaking in theory. There are several possible routes longer than what you described. Here is one. If you originate in Khasan Russia and continue across Russia, heading south at Saratov to Volgograd and then onward to Tbilisi in Georgia.
Now, there needs to be a note. It will likely be dangerous to go any further. The considerations depend on what country you are a citizen of, what languages you speak, who your friends are, etc. However, speaking of times before Covid -- and speaking as an American citizen -- if Covid ended today -- and if you had a lot of balls --
You could go from Georgia through Turkey and to the Ibrahim Khalil border crossing into Iraqi Kurdistan. Before COVID, if you were a US citizen you could pass through here with a proper 6-month visa from the Iraqi government. Whether it is safe to do so is another question.
Now you are in Iraq. The average normal person should not go here right now. Without trusted and secure friendly contacts within the country, I would personally be on the good foot driving, looking to get into and out of the country as quickly as possible.
With that said, I would not transit the western frontier. It is very dangerous. I would attempt to blend in by driving through Mosul and onto Baghdad. From Baghdad, you are going to the western frontier with Jordan. Cross into Jordan at Karameh border crossing. Now take a deep breath. You are on relatively safe turf again.
If ferries were allowed, you could take a ferry across the Red Sea from Jordan to Egypt and not have to cross into Israel. However since we stipulate no ferries, you need to cross into Israel, likely at the Jordan River Border Crossing. From there, continue on to Tel Aviv. From Tel Aviv, you will head south to Taba border crossing, the only border crossing for tourists from Israel into Egypt.
You will then go on to Cairo and overland to Aswan. From Aswan if ferries were allowed we would try to take the ferry to Wadi Haifa. However from what I can find online, I believe it is in fact possible to drive a personal car from Aswan into Sudan. Keeping in mind there are no settlements for miles around West of the Nile in the desert. Although it does not show in Google Maps, from the Google satellite photos there does appear to be a manned border crossing west of the Nile overland called the Arqin land border crossing, opened in 2017 goo.gl/maps/hfmshAym9ENUNUdCA
I believe the roads are now done on the Sudanese side as well...
In Sudan you will go on to Khartoum and cross into Ethiopia on to Gondar and then Addis Ababa.
From Addis you can drive overland through Kenya and the rest of East Africa all the way South to ZA and onto Cape Town. I have never been to SE Africa so I will leave that up to someone else, but Google routes you pretty straightforwardly.

I think that a road trip from Vancouver might be longer if you drove through Quebec and then into Labrador.
But can someone actually make this trip like where are the gas stations
If you're light on the throttle, every 800kms is a city or two, with gas stations in between.
Felecity Foston Carry gas and spares on board!
Why the fuck would they make a road without access to gas stations...
His question is actually valid if you think about it. Nothing guarantees gas stations being on this direct road route. If surrounding areas and villages have them then locals will have enough gas. But to actually drive on the continuous road only might not be possible.
Well I assume that you'll drive on highways, and those usually have gas stations. Not to sure about the central asian/sibirian part tho

Now I know why my dad hasn’t returned from the grocery store yet.
It is possible to drive a much longer distance while following all the criteria you set. We can in fact drive from Cape Town, South Africa to Khasan, Russia without using any ferry. We simply have to cross the Congo river via the Matadi bridge in Matadi, Democratic Republic of the Congo. The total driving distance is then 25 337 km, about 11 000 km more than the route you suggest. To reproduce this route in Google Maps, enter the following way points: Cape Town in South Africa, Matadi in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Pointe Noire in the Republic of the Congo, Eilat in Israel, and Khasan in Russia. Google Maps states that this route would take 345 hours to complete. Happy driving everyone!
We could probably get a more direct route by going through Iran and China, but Google Maps stops showing directions as soon as I enter a way point in China. I am guessing this route would be shorter by about 5 000 km, for a total of around 20 000 km.

How? After looking at the border of China and Kyrgyzstan I found out that road A371 actually goes into China (39.694859, 73.923347). Google maps, however, did not add in the roads that is in the vicinity of the A371 loop, so it is actually possible to get off A371 and make it to mainland China!
We then have to go to Longchuan, on the border to Myanmar. Once again, google cannot calculate any route from China to Myanmar... but it is possible at 23.980239, 97.897083!

Yeah but it includes a ferry
Who uses miles? Just use normal kilometers
@@charlienorthover1702 miles Has no sense. All world uses km so...
Idiot americans do
@@charlienorthover1702 kilometers are 1000 meters exact making it easy to count and understand while a mile is 1,6 kilometers lol
@@charlienorthover1702 also a mile is 1609,34 meters lol it makes no sense instead of just 1000
Miles are better for distance. But metric is better for precise things

Sorry but as others have pointed out, it is possible to drive from Khasan Russia to Brazzaville in the Republic of the Congo with no ferries for a total distance of 21,048 km.
perhaps...but who in their right mind would want to do that drive..?
Alice Soaker There is a land
border crossing between egypt and israel. The problem is you could only come in one direction because if you go through israel first you won't be able to enter syria.
Andrew Long you can further drive to Cape Town if you instead go via Cabinda, Angola..26,270 kms of road route without any ferries! :)
The Israeli-Egyptian border is open to pedestrians, and, with enough paperwork, probably vehicles.
@NusRad you don't have to go through Syria, but you do need to go through Iraq and Iran. You could always just "lose" your passport in Jordan and get another.
There is actually only one customs check point between Sagres and Khasan as Belarus and Russia form a customs union.
There should be no customs checkpoints between Russia and Belarus (though you need separate visas and paperwork for both). So technically only one checkpoint between EU and Union State of Belarus and Russia.
That would be a nice car stress test to see how reliable it is!
3:53 I think everyone would much rather go the opposite direction, Russia to Portugal.
What's the difference?

I got interested and tried looking for more routes on Google Maps. Apparently you can drive from Port Elizabeth, South Africa to Skarsvag, Norway. It is almost 16,800 km long. Pretty cool.
The longest route is from my job to my house after work.

1:45 stouth america
Stouth
12070km NOT EVEN CLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSE TO THE STAGGERING 14043km, iiits kinda close
2000km aint nothing tho
And if south and north America were connected they would become the longest route easily.
Max Half but if they built a Gibraltar bridge than it would get ridiculous
USA: *bulids road through Cambodia*
Europe: *Bulids bridge through Gibraltar Strait*
USA: *Builds Bridge to Antarctica from argentina*
Europe: *bulids bridge through Pacific ocean to Australia*
USA: *bulids bridge to the moon*
TheObsidianX I've totally forgot about that possibility, in the future there will be a bridge in there, definitely.
WHAT? This is the first video of an 80k sub channel? And it's was uploaded yesterday?
So confused! How?
Because its the new sub channel of the very popular Wendover Productions.
Are you saying that if you affiliated with a previous channel you get an automatic 100 thousand bump up. So if you want a 100 thousand subscribers go and ask an existing youtuber to do you a kind favor and you save yourself some ground work?
Its not affiliated with, it *is* the same person/people. All those subs have already been earned.
Ok say there are 5 people who start a Chanel, they do well, 1 leaves to start his own channel, does he get a 100k bump up? Can you claim to be the 1 guy who left and went on his own? How would it be monitored?
They say it’s half as interesting, but I think it’s double as interesting.
So 12000km are not even close to 14000km ? Explain me this.
20 000 km is pretty long distance.
Difference is 2000 Km
@@jeewanguragain9444 eg people rolling in $14M don't understand the value of $2000
Because theese "simple" 2.000km of diference can take you for example from Portugal to France, crossing Spain, that's a long distance.
You'd need roughly 24 hours non-stop driving to complete a 2000-km route. So, no. 12000 km is not close to 14000 km by today's standard of car-driving.
It's going to take you weeks to drive in Russia, due to bad roads and harsh weather conditions. I am telling you this because I am Russian.
Bogdan V and bad driving
there are not mosquitoes, but roads still will be a huge problem
And if you're an American, you'll probably need special permits to travel through some of those areas
briantravelman only visa, because всем поебать
Russia had the best roads in my travels even better than many European countries. Kazakstan/mongolia had bad roads but russia was beautiful. Altai,siberia,east russia, astrakhan,chechnya grozny.. etc chechnya for example has this super motorway which was the most smoothest motorway I been on
There you have it,
The thumbnail is the answer.
Man was getting sponsorships straight with first video
It wasn’t a sponsorship
0:40 - August 2017 “It’s impossible to cross from Africa to Asia because of this, the Suez Canal
March 2021: “it’s even impossible to cross the Suez Canal”
HAI without the humor
WOW! What a perfect video: wonderfully spoken with that calming voice, learned so much in those 4 minutes and the presentation/animations or awesome. I love videos that are made in this style. Awesome work. Keep up doing this! Why i haven't discovered this awesome channel earlier? Thank you very much, sir!
And so a awesome channel was born 0:00
I'm confused why it doesn't count to drive over the Suez Canal via bridge.
It does count, he just didn’t have the resources. You can literally drive north into Algeria, and then east across the Suez Canal. Brazzaville to Khasan without ferries 13,470 miles, which is 5,000 miles more than his silly Sagres adventure
CBaccari's PC Simulation Channel If you set Al Fashir Sudan and Cairo Egypt as waypoints, then you can get to Cape Town South Africa without ferries, a journey of over 27.000km... this video was poorly researched and argued, considering it took me two minutes to find the "avoid ferries" option on Google maps. There actually seems to be a road down the Eastern side of Africa, but Egypt and Sudan don't get along to well, so I guess you can't cross that border.
Aidan Gardiner it’s actually not possible to drive from Sudan directly into Egypt and go up to the Suez Canal without taking a ferry through the Nile River. However, there is a route from Sudan to Egypt via Chad, Niger, and Libya. It’s an extremely dangerous drive but it’s 100% doable
(Edit: I just found a route. It is possible, it’s just not mapped on Google Maps)
FunFact Lister you don't need to drive through Sudan for the longest trip. You can drive through Nigeria, Niger, Algeria, and Libya and you can cross the Nile River in Egypt
CBaccari's PC Simulation Channel I’m talking about going from Cape Town to Khasan, not from Brazzaville to Khasan (my apologies for the lack of clarification).
What I was trying to say is that if someone would want to get from Cape Town to Khasan without taking a ferry, driving through Sudan would be a requirement (there is also a Central African Republic-South Sudan route but it’s impossible for a real car to make the entire route because of closed borders/towns and extremely poor road/environmental conditions in the latter country)
There is actually a logner route that google maps doesn't list due to China. And An african route as well. You can go via Mongolia or Kazakhstan (Most likely via Kazakhstan) and then on chinese highways, where you can cross down to laos and thailand then down to singapore. Theorectically you can even go via Turkey ->Iraq ->Iran - >Pakistan -> (India if you want to) ->China -> Laos -> Thailand ->malaysia ->singapore. Also, you CAN go from africa to asia IF you have 2 passports, one for... israel. AND if the Taba border crossing reopens or if you can use the upper crossing. Then you can cross into jordan, iraq etc. So the shortest route to Iraq would be: South Africa->Botswana ->Go Via Zimbabwe or Nambia to cross the river -> Zambia ->Tanzania -> Uganda -> South Sudan ->Sudan (Uganda and South Sudan replaced by Kenya and Ethopia for practical crossings) ->Egypt, DON'T GO VIA THE FERRY, GO VIA THE ROAD CROSSING UNLISTED ON GOOGLE MAPS ->Israel (Taba crossing) -> Jordan -> Iraq ->Iran (But a faster, longer route is: Zambia ->DRC->Central African Republic ->Chad->Cameroon->Nigeria->Niger->Algeria->Libya->Egypt (Sure, the visas will be a nightmare) But this route, Pretoria up to Cairo already takes 8755km. (The Chinese, pakistan->India sudan->Egypt crossing aren't on google maps, but they exist if you do some digging)
Note: If you wanted to do this in real life, you would need: A rental car, A LOT of maintanence stuff, spare gas, visas for the countries, A LOT of research, 2 PASSPORTS since you don't want to take the egypt->jordan ferry, you have to go via israel, A LOT of TIME and A LOT OF MONEY.
Also, submiting documents to cross border on your (or rented) car in Africa might take up to 2 weeks per border. And as far as I know, you can't cross Laos border on rented vehicle (may be you may need to hire local driver to go through Laos)
The only border crossing between egypt and sudan that is open includes the ferry. The unlisted one you mention is closed.
actually you are right, a new border crossing has been opened on the west of the nile with no ferry
RandomGamer 123 That's really cool, but how'd you find out? Is it another channel you found?
just 1 border / customs crossing from Portugal to Far Russia, as Belarus border with Russia is not usually checked, much like Schengen.

I've been in Sagres (Portugal) and it's very windy!!!
so khasan must be the other end..
DRS Portugal Não o foi em Agosto! No.. it was in August
The Panama canal is an elevated canal based on locks. North America and South America are one lane mass.
I may be wrong but from "Google Earth" & "Rome to Rio" it seems you can drive from Sagres, Portugal all the way to Singapore. The drive takes you past Moscow, Russia then from there Xinjiang, China then through Bangkok all the way to Singapore. A distance of approximately 10,508.2 miles. with an approx. time of 8 days 1 hour. - fellow map nerd here =)
Edit: grammar and found a shorter route between Sagres and Singapore.
Chinese guys are allowed to drive in China, right? So they could take such a trip. c",)
The longest drive in history was a test carried out by US Army and AASHTO in the 1950s. They drove around a track continuously for years. It was to test road materials ahead of the Interstate Programme.
