I bet if they did a round that showed the house they were literally in, Smith would get it within 3 seconds, Ross would zoom into a remote Nicaraguan village and spend 19 minutes moving the map around while gritting his teeth and shaking and Trott would select the wrong house and question if he lives in the wrong place.
You have to admire his willingness to admit he doesn't know what the Golden Gate bridge is but truly believed he'd found the correct bridge in a Russian round in another video.
@@bingo5387 The Chartres Cathedral is famous in its own right. I don't think people generally call it "Notre Dame", it just happens to have that in its name (like literally thousands of churches in France, since catholics are/were obsessed with the virgin Mary).
It's still just as bad if you watch it live lol, Craig cut out the part where Trott was scrolling around Seattle for 30 seconds trying to find the space needle which was very clearly visible the entire time.
1:05 Is the most smooth brain energy moment of the whole hat films geoguessr saga... What is Trott's thought process here???? "I'm in between these two objects, so clearly I should guess this area that is to the right/east of both of them"... I can forgive not knowing where certain landmarks are, fair enough, but this is basic spatial awareness, and Trott is failing hard lol
The Washington Monument is situated to the right of where he clicked. It's across 17th St from the Reflecting Pool (which is why it says "Washington Monument Grounds" to the right of his guess). 😉
5:55 I don't know how Ross 'slippery' Hornby _finds_ Dubai, and then scrolls _away_ from Dubai to Abu Dhabi, then goes _even further away still_ into the middle of nowhere..... Big built up place.... Try systematically looking around the map rather than chaotically dragging it! 7:12 "Quite well hidden" Yup... Hidden.... Burj Khalifa...
So much frantic clicking and just overall panic, hahaha, that was great! I dunno how much you all learned from this, but I learned that Washington DC is not in Virginia or Maryland (which is news to me because I swear that I was taught in elementary school that DC was the capital of Maryland...) so I'm gonna take this as an "I learned something" win for me at least, lol
Yeah the capital used to be Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, but the the south thought that centered US power too far north, so a great debate was had where to place a new capital, Maryland/Virginia, and the compromise was "both, but also neither".
I think them telling me they are my favourite people is working, at the start of this video he said it and I agreed and was just like yeah I guess you are
Smith! I am utterly offended. As a proud Maryland resident you should know we donated 2/3 land for DC, Virginia only donated 1/3, get your facts straight... DC is not in Virginia.
tbf the first US capital was New York, then Philadelphia and finally DC which was designed and built to be the capital city, so could have been placed just about anywhere...
