London -> ZHills with Google Maps

[howardwhite 6]

1. Go to Google -> Maps
2. Get Directions: London, UK -> Zephyrhills, FL
3. Note especially step #37

Google Maps does not have similar help if you need directions from continents other than Europe.

This has been circulating for the last week or so... the google guys definetely have a warped (albiet entertaining) sense of humor.

what I really want to know is how they've decided how long it will take for someone to make that swim... (the directions are generally on the order of about a month... )

It calculates out to about 5 mph, unless my arithmetic skills have deteriorated still more than I thought.

Wasn't that Benoit Lecomte 1998 route? He did it in 72 days.

What would be funnier is if someone tried a Hong Kong to LA direction list...

Do they swim to Hawaii, take a break, then swim to LA???
