We're going to need some dash cam footage of him traversing a river, rough trail, or crowd of maniacs. At least a story line with some photos. This posting an instagram pic every few days of a stair case or landscape view with a one sentence description is going to get boring fast.

Yeah... Seeing activity in the thread, only to read another "is he dead yet", is kinda anticlimactic.
These are just the OB comedians, I made a comment to this effect a couple days and deleted it because people were still starring and LOLing these dumb comments.

Well, at least he hasn't mislabeled any landmarks yet...

And I cannot wait for him to get to Egypt and post pictures of the Taj Mahal!

So are yall taking this more seriously or just awaiting more substantial updates? I enjoy all these "dumb" comments.

I like where this thread has gone. It's a mess for all sorts of great reasons, but its a good mess.

Jeep guy is the perfect storm of inexperience, ineptness, foolhardiness, and narcissism with just enough follow-through to actually get himself into a really bad situation.

Even the OB locals struggle to look away from a completely preventable train wreck. And since it is one guy a long way away, whose fate will eventually be determined by his flaws (or he will tuck his tail and run) it is a nice distraction to make sure that I don't spend my whole day working.

All I'm saying is a daily post of "is he dead yet" is pretty unimaginative and lame, like a second grade knock knock joke.

At least he knows it's always boiling so he doesn't have to worry about bacteria. Evaporation might be an issue though....

Maybe homeboy's GPS is off, and he is just circling the old Second Ward of Houston. Either way, he gone.

Well, it is the question that has driven almost 90,000 views of this thread.

It may be overdone, but it's what we all wonder every time we see a new post on this thread.

Found this thread about a month and a half late, but I've read it all from the beginning and I can't get enough. Hoping for new updates soon.

With the crap that went down in France just a stones throw away from where he is, I bet homeboy hunkers down for a while.

I'm thinking if he disappears/meets untimely death there will be 200+ responses to the thread so quit asking.
