You guys are underestimating how long it will take for him to be presumed dead, long after his actually abduction.


The first day he misses his daily post from one of the many Internet cafes he's utilizing, we can assume he's dead.

Holy sheet...I see in nine hours there are 77 posts and think, "damn, this ***ker is already dead, he was just on a ferry this morning...did anyone pick 7/6/16?"

Edit: 7/8/16...8/13/16 with a machete



Oh are we guessing cause of death too?

Put my money on his car battery dies on the ferry ride over and shocks himself to death due to not knowing how to jump the Jeep

Did anybody else learn a lot about Africa by reading through this thread and then Googling things? I know I did. I really had no idea Africa was so large.

Same thing, that place is huge! It's depressing when you think about what a complete disaster the continent is, even moreso when you realize what a large area it is and what resources are wasted.

I agree. I see him somehow making it back to his home embassy, emaciated and broke within a short period of time.

That's what I'm thinking. He'll be alive, but he'll be robbed & jeep-jacked. I give him less than a week.

I believe the theories that Africa was where man originated.




I also believe we've been fleeing it for our entire existence for a reason.

See its not that bad. Most of the continent had no problems. The only places with dots are the places with people.

So if he makes it through the sahara, through the lands held by boko haram, through the heart of darkness, either across the skeleton coast or predator rich Zambezi river basin he will arrive at cape town. One of the most dangerous cities outside of waco. Got it. Makes total sense.

When your iteneray contains words and phrases like "land held by", "heart of darkness" and "skeleton coast" you are either headed to a Disney ride or you are stupid as ****

I'll join powerbelly: He lives.

He's going to run out of money, break down, or get scared by Africa and will consider any of the above a good excuse to back out of the rest of this stupid trip, then write a half assed book about his life changing journey and hope to heck there's some publishing company out there even stupider than he is.

I feel like the death date should apply to the "death" of the trip as well. If by some miracle he survives, the death date chosen would still apply to when he throws in the towel.
