    5:06 that bridge's history is pretty interesting, i will tell you
    it was first built in the 1960's projected by the same architect that made the bridge in san francisco (you can clearly see the resemblence) and name "salazar bridge" (salazar refers to António de Oliveira de Salazar, which at the time was the portuguese dictator).
    At the 25th of april, (exactly 50 years ago, in 1974) there was the "carnation revolution" that took over the dictatorship (the dictator had died 4 years prior and replaced with another dictator), which is a very important date for our nation, hence the name of the bridge :)

    5:02 so the bridge is named 25th of april because Portugal lived on a fascist dictatorship for 48 years, and on 25th of april 1974 happened a coup, where the portuguese troops made a revolution to end that fascist dictatorship.

    @TehOnlyAnd1-pw8ci 15 днів тому

    I did fairly well I thought. Spoilers follow.
    Easy I got all of them and a score of 24,999.
    I missed the 5k by a few metres for the CN Tower (the map did not show a building on the Northern side of the road so I discounted it).
    Lisbon and London I knew the 5k instantly as I've been to both, and I also recognised Pisa after a few seconds.
    I recognised Malaysia; and since the Twin Tower is really the only famous landmark I know in the country so I zoomed in right to the 5k.
    Hard was much harder, but I got the three out of five.
    R1 I thought Northern Colombia first but couldn't think of a landmark. I was about to give up when I saw that the carpets being sold and visible in the screen had the Chichen Itza Pyramid on them. Now finding Chichen Itza on the other hand... Took me almost 10 minutes but I got there in the end.
    In Greece (which I was not even sure of) I thought the Acropolis was going to be the landmark. It didn't really look like Athens but there was a parc in the right direction so I guessed there. Probably the footpaths were just footpaths and not a road though... Didn't really know about the monastery either.
    Now I knew that we might have some less famous landmarks. Next one gave me Guatemala City vibes immediately and I also saw the "Alto". I don't know any landmarks there so I checked the two that showed up first when zooming in and the second was correct (the "Centro de Asistencia Social" POI is quite visible). But how come I have never heard of that tower or seen it when playing GG?
    R4 I had no clue. I went Brasilia and thought I found a matching road South East of the National Congress, but alas, nope... US makes sense though.
    R5 Figured out Senegal eventually, and then also gathered it must be Dakar. Didn't know the monument but found it after some scanning.

    Hey man, just a tip. The videos are awesome and the title is great, but I've always thought that your face on the thumbnails looks very airbrushed. If that's the vibe you're going for, then great. But UA-cam really rewards like a more normal looking edit version of a face. I feel like you should at least try having more of a 'natural' looking thumbnail for a couple videos, worst case you switch back to this style.

    For the first location, in addition to mentioning meters, the "20s handwashing mandatory before entering site" sign doesn't look American to me. I don't think an American sign like that would say "20s" that way, it'd phrase it differently. Here in the US you would most likely see the word seconds spelled out and not reduced to a single letter, I think...
