Why do maps show places that don't exist?
Let me guess it's Tuvalu 🇹🇻
Sometimes I'll see some weird-looking artifact on Google Earth, but it's usually a spot where the images didn't quite stitch together properly.
How the fuck is this video from 2009. The level of quality for an independent creator and the humour feel so ahead of the time.
1:38 as a Dutchy I approve of this pronunciation of Schiphol!
That absolutely isn’t Grimsby and there is no sign saying Grimsby, that looks like that. They all have the coat of arms on.
I'll have you know that I'm a Cartographer, and I never put fake stuff on my maps. Well only the once, so far.
Чувствую какое-то надменное отношение. Будто британцы короли мира😅
I am proud to be from Dorset
I do
I live in Britain, and this helped me alot because most town names in Britain are hard to pronounce.
Why no mention of Happisburgh? Go on give a go everyone….. nope! Wrong!
I know it’s not a country but I kept saying Colorado in my head
Holy crap, Harrison was a genius. Just casually revolutionizes an industry he was never trained in, as a teenager, before solving the world's biggest navigational problem? Now that's a flex.
At 1:54, I wasn’t paying attention to what you were saying anyway. I was just hoping to see Big Foot.
fanum tax
I have to say that normally, the "ad" portion of a video is rather try and an unwelcome break in the video, but I love sitting through any ad made by any of Jay's channels. I swear some of them have more production value than the actual video.
I have found myself merrily monobridged several times, I highly recommend it 👌
.cat contrary to popular belief, was not added for please cat lovers but instead strangely for the autonomous community of Spain Cataluña
I'm starting to think this was a beginning of the internet
new sub =)
America the beautiful.
'the internet will just come at you like wasps' is a brilliant phrase
1:15 Notably, Saskatchewan in Canada (the rectangular shape west of Winnipeg) does not follow daylight savings time while the rest of the country does, and so flip-flops back and forth between -6 and -7 depending on the season.
DC 😬
The internet already just comes at you like wasps tbh
I'm 7 years late to this party but how about a collab with Geoff Marshall?
Done loads.
I LOVE MAP MEN
.TV maybe?
I refuse to think Americans exist
Nobody can be better than Stalin
Change your longitude and you change the view, change your latitude, you change the weather
Reminds me of that time when a lettuce outlasted a PM
Antartica & Upper New Zealand Island in the last map:
ah back in 2019 where you could spit in your friends mouth with no worries
"Amazoning women" 🤣🤣🤣
Why have I only learnt about this brilliance now??
Jon Gracey!
Correct! (He appears several times in several Unfinished London episodes. Can you spot them all?)
lol, Map Men really has that Sheldon Coopers Fun with Flags feel. Its glorious
How is Harry Beck Jago Hazzard, in the description
It’s him. Watch part 2 to the end, and listen out for the proof.
How isn't Austria in the sticky outy bits part
I can’t get enough of hearing “anomal-anomal-anomal-anomalies”
I'm polish and I have no idea what you said in 0:50. "Dobre" what?
Cool
Haha. First time I ever enjoyed watching an ad 4:54
Takeaway: It's fun to know pointless things
You missed the opportunity to flip the camera upside down when "driving in Australia".
if states counted that means its not egypt its ohio then
* list of TLDs scrolls past * Me: Wait, did I just see chicken noises!? Turns out there also the chorus of Witchdoctor hidden in there as well 🤣 Well played
why its called map when its a diagram easier to say or it got stuck or both
Both. Also, the distinction between map and diagram is not as clear cut as you might think.
12:02 - nice gag. It reminded me that in Ukraine we often dream/wish someone undiscovers ground to the east of the country, so that we have more sea.
