Forest_Fifer Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Has anyone else been following this? They have just set a new record for a transpolar circumnavigation of the earth, staring from Florida, crossing the North Pole, stopping in Kazakhstan then Mauritius, then over the south pole to Chile, then back to Florida. If you relied on mainstream media you'd be lucky to know it was happening http://Onemoreorbit.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Found the proper link. Thought they were walking unsupported, turns out they're flying in a fucking Gulfstream executive jet. I think we've been had. https://www.onemoreorbit.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busta Nut Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 I don't really understand what this is but I really couldn't give a f**k about people flying round the world for fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herman Hessian Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 look at this couple of c***s - slightly overdressed for sitting in a luxury plane for a bit, being wanked off by Magdalena (I bet she was circumnavigating their poles - with her tongue) the aeronautical equivalent of 'full kit wankers' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melanius Mullarkey Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 So let me get this right. The Astro/Cosmo c***s are sitting in first class sipping champers whilst the pilots do the “hard work”? Excellent. (Magdalena is a wid though) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Magdalena is a wid though) don't forget their 'stop over' in Mauritius - i bet that's a real bind, too; and newly oil-rich Kazakhstan with it's 'ultramodern, 97m-tall Bayterek tower offering panoramic views from its observation deck. The Ak Orda Presidential Palace is topped with a massive blue-and-gold dome. The giant, tentlike Khan Shatyr Entertainment Center houses a shopping mall and indoor beach resort....' - i've seen itineraries for luxury cruises that are shitter than that agenda ! Captain Scott's expedition went to the pole in nothing but their lounge suits and an extra pair of socks, ate their dogs and then all died of exposure; i'll bet they're turning in their shallow, miserable, icy graves definite porn film to follow too - stewardess Magdalena 'trapped' on a plane with eight blokes for 44 hours, with a bit of island-hopping in the indian ocean thrown in for good measure to allow for 'servicing' by native support-crew, err, members and to evoke the spirit of the apollo programme to justify their extended piss-up/shag-fest/world tour - what a set of wankers eta: not that i'm letting it bother me, at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Percy doesn't even have a Wikipedia page. I'd also have went Marie Lloyd rather than the allandale guy. I gave his YouTube clip at least 30 seconds before I decided to write off his entire career. I'd have thrown young Winston Churchill into your Norwegian list. As a young man he had a particularly punchable face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forest_Fifer Posted July 12, 2019 Author Share Posted July 12, 2019 I don't think they'll have been doing much sightseeing when the average time on the ground at each location was less than an hour. Quite a lot was live streamed on Youtube via satellite, I was just surprised that it seems to have been pretty much ignored, where if it had been Richard Bloody Branson onboard you'd have got hourly updates.Yeah, there wasn't much point to this, but is there a point to any world record? Plus it's properly noised up the flat earthers, as the Mauritius to Chile flight would be physically impossible unless they had an aircraft that could average at least 2000kph.

Inanimate Carbon Rod Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Bunch of rich people fly a supercharged jet equipped with what seems like several beds allowing a rotation of crew. Yes a real feat of human endurance, one for the ages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
