Guy walks from Mexico to Canada, takes a selfie every mile, makes a time lapse video. Pretty cool.

Quite. Dread to think how I look at the end of 2600 miles, but this chap looks a lot better.

Quite an inspiring video, just been reading Bill Bryson's book about hiking the Appalachian trail too. Looks a good diet plan!

Bill Bryson is a bit of a tit.

Why does his beard stay exactly the same?
Obviously he trims it but it would have been ace to see his beard grow.

(also this will be deleted as its a YouTube video as there's a thread fo that shizzle)

He looks a bit miserable. Miserable bugger.

On a jollier note my friend Cloddy took a photo of his lad every day for 21 years. Obviously we thought he was a bit deranged but it worked out quite well in the end.....

Anybody, and I mean anybody, who takes a selfie just deserves a good punch. Hateful things that no one enjoys other than the wker doing it.

Great read - and has got me through many night shifts. One day I hope to hike at least one of the 'great' trails - effectively the one on the west coast, the middle or the East coast.
Amazing that so much freedom is still left to discover with a world so connected...

That's an NHS cost busting idea if ever I saw one, fat folk must take a photo every mile of the 9000 they must do, before a gastric band is even considered at the tax payers expense.

Great video. I walked a bit of the Appalachian Trail through Virginia in Shenandoah National Park last year. Truly amazing scenery. I'd love to do the whole lot.

Yep, you lot are totally right.

The bloke doing this is a miserable bellend, people sitting on their arse on forums have way more fun / achievement in their lives.
