I keep clicking on this thread when I see new posts. Instead of being the little kid in the back seat saying, "Are we there yet? Are we there yet?" endlessly, it's more "Is he dead yet? Is he dead yet?".

Kinda disappointed that he's not going through Mogadishu and Benghazi. Perhaps he can stop in and visit King Obama's family in Kenya while he's passing through.

I really want this trip to start and I've reconciled my feelings per the following:

I'm pretty sure that this dude doesn't even make it 2 weeks, but I don't really want him to die. Stupidity, while dangerous in this case, doesn't make me want the guy to be harmed. The dream scenario is to crap out within short order and then have to eat a bunch of crow. People who have their heads in the clouds like this moron often deny the realities of the world (see: all liberals), but wishing death upon them seems a little harsh.

Unfortunately, knowing what I know about the inhabitants of Africa, this situation lends itself to a likely dark conclusion.

Same here. He ran out of money and is living on his credit cards, so when he dies in a couple weeks without any assets, he will be a burden on society as the debt will just be discharged.

This guy needs to be sporting a GoPro that is constantly uploading to the cloud. I'll sponsor it.

Throw in the potential of a couple diseases, he could literally crap himself out.

If he was practical and inti saving he would have flown to RSA, fitted out a Landcruiser - probably very few mids by people that know more than he does - traveled Africa with RSA plates and siokd at his choice of departure ports

He'd put some money back in his pocket for the way home and have spent about 1/3rd the jack

It's line golf - sometimes you gotta club down and lay up


I'll be honest, I made sense of about 30% of this post.

Apologies for the multi-tasking typos; cleaned it up a bit

If he was practical and into saving he would have flown to RSA, fitted out a Landcruiser - probably very few mods required by people that know more than he does - then travel Africa with RSA plates and sell it at his choice of departure ports. (Kitted out land cruiser over-landers are quite common and available in RSA)

He'd put some money back in his pocket for the way home and have spent about 1/3rd the jack (1/3rd less dinero than modding a jeep in the states and shipping overseas)

EDIT - cleaned up my post now that I'm "sober" LOL

The latest sunshinery from the Dark Continent:
Albinos in Malawi killed and sold for parts

quote:
In the past 19 months, authorities in Malawi have recorded the murders of 18 albinos and abduction of five others, although Amnesty fears the real number is likely to be higher as many attacks in secretive rituals in rural areas are never reported.

The body parts of albinos who lack pigment in their skin, hair and eyes are believed to bring wealth and good luck and are prized in witchcraft for use in charms and magical potions.

Hi Dan. This is you from the future. Don't go to Africa. You are going to die there.

In.

This dude is in for a severe and painful reality check. I hope he calls it off quickly after starting for his own sake.

That being said, cant wait to see what happens and what he runs into.

Like I said. This dork is not getting past the Spain/Morocco border at Ceuta. If he can't correctly identify really famous stuff in London, he for sure has no idea how to get an international vehicle over a border.

He's going to mistake a group of ISIS fighters for some friendly natives he should stop and take a selfie with.

I bet he continues to **** around in the UK for a while longer until the hoopla over this dies down, then he'll quietly just back out of it

I was curious if ole boy had a will? Then I thought why, his chance of a beheading, eaten by lions, tigers, cock or cannibals is so high what's the use.

Guys an idiot!
