@@hypocrite427 dude im chilean and the only thing I was sure of is that it wasnt Santiago because of how that bus looked, idek how did he know it was in the north instantly lol
Some assumptions he makes make you question... you see it all... no idea how he could possibly cheat. But some assumptions and conclusions he makes look pure randomness but work.
Chilean here, no idea how the fuck he guessed North! I would have said coastal, for sure, because of the clouds, and not Santiago for the bus, and that is was a big city because they even have a bus in the first place. But northern? never
the first moment i saw it i instantly said chile. (mostly because my family lives in the north so i know how it looks like) my first guess was alto hospicio or mabey calama because of the buses and because there arent mountains like in Iquique
I just spent 30 minutes looking through Turkish towns on the Black Sea. And this guy just says: I like the hilliness of this and clicks within 10 meters of the location.
at 2:30, after his "audio glitch" he spots the PERI sign then leans in to his left for a closer look then says "i dont think-" and pauses as he zooms in again on the PERI sign BUT his eyes look right (our left, not where he looked the first time). He is inarguably looking at the answer 'Trabzon' on a second screen provided by the real detective looking up 'Vadikent Toki Sitesi' in Turkey. Straight away he feels like getting into the map because he knows exactly where to look...Trabzon, which he finds at 3:15 . Call me a sceptic but I call bullshlt 🕵️♂️
It sounds ludicrous to me to think I should know that but honestly basic geographic knowledge to me said "well southern Chile is basically Antarctica or Patagonia so any non wintry Chile had to be northern." Don't know if that hunch is correct but🤷♂️
@@Muzikrazy213 that's some pretty sound logic actually, i think the biggest giveaway is the hills you see far away, anything that's not northern Chile will have green hills, not brown ones.
@@dunyacaliskan7495 he read spanish text in signs, then he knew it wasnt mexico or spain because of the taxis. Then he knows it's south america. For sure, southern Peru and Northern Chile are very similar, but the big sign promoting the Millitary career in the army had CL on it. So, it can only be Chile
I played the round and was pulling my hair out trying to figure out which coastal town that was in Turkey (ended up going way too far west) and then I start watching this video and you just instantly happen to zoom in on the correct place out of like 20+ towns that border the Black Sea. Unreal.
I looked at a few of the big coastal cities there, thought Trabazon looked pretty good based on the hills and the coastline, guessed on a main road based on the lack of buildings around the starting location and got a closer guess then him in like 1 minute. then proceeded to get 14k total lol
Not familiar with Turkey at all but I honed in on Trabazon quickly because the coastline looked pretty perfectly East-West and went to the biggest city near such an area, and it matched the hilliness of the photo. I actually did the same thing as Tom where I randomly clicked on Trabazon and ended up on that exact road (although I was a bit further south)

A popular one at that! There's a street near where i live (Porto Alegre) which has the same name and is all the way down south of brazil. There must be hundreds of other quintino bocaiúvas around.
Well, his statement isn’t wrong.. If you don’t speak the language, and haven’t the slightest idea of what the word means, wouldn’t you be ‘NOT amazing at the language’...? Lol..
It was just funny cause the way he was getting at it I thought he knew a lil something and then super calmly said that. Not dissing just thought it was funny no need to get defensive my guy all love
I know you probably won't read this, but in the second round in Brazil, when there's phone numbers you can look at the number between the parenthesis if it is between 70 and 99 it's a state in the north part of the country, so the "(91)" would tell you it's really northern, in this case "Pará"
Didn't catch that one, but on one of the cars it said "Belem". Unfortunately, after like three minutes of searching, I gave up because I didn't have a lot of time, but I'm so mad that I did. I could've gotten perfect there. It also said Belem on the bus, but that was tough to notice.
There was also "Belem" written on the side of a taxi, as well as a "Citade de Belem" which was really hard to read on the side of the bus because it was so slanted, but it was definitely readable if you already saw Belem on the taxi
@@insanlutfi maybe. I got the sense he was looking for a specific grid pattern of roads then searching for a road name. I would have thought he would have pointed out he had found Nazare to us and been less unsure had he had that supporting evidence. But maybe.

That moment when RUclips recomend a random Google Maps vídeo and suddenly there is a guy searching for a place which is less than 100 meters away from your house......
Me as a Brazilian that lived nearby that place, was such a coincidence falling into this content. Belém do Pará is such an amazing city with beautiful natural Amazon forest reserve, with such a marvelous view on the river while kayaking. I leaved the city this year and this video brings me so many memories! Thank you!
HELLO!!! I want to spend time with celebrities. Just kidding. GAGAGAGAGA! I only want to spend time with my two girlfriends and record videos for RUclips with the 3 of us. OH YEAH. Don't hate me for living the best life, dear alhs
@@cocopuppy5165 hahah nice to see you! Geoguessr popped up in my recommends a few months ago so i binged a bunch of his vids. Then I saw him pop up in Ludwig streams/vids which was super cool to see
As much as I love Tom he’s not even close to being the best geoguessr player out there.. easily the most charismatic and fun to watch but if you want to see some mind blowing shit I suggest you check out R C the dude is nuts
Yeah, it's that Old World / New World thing, isn't it? People from the Old World couldn't stop naming things in the New World after places back home. North and South America are covered in those names lol
I find it absolutely mad how he was able to find it by looking for the other street, and not the one with the name written right in front of him. Do you know how many streets share the same name in Brazil, enough to keep him searching for a whole week. Yet, he found it. Crazy stuff
Geowizard: searches and looks around intens and reads everything and gets 5 yards away. My friend: ayo I'm getting Canada vibes. *Turns out it is somewere in Russia*
bro I've lived in Turkey my whole life and I was thinking of the west coast then my man fricking pulled out the Vadikent district from the whole country. God damn dude you are a legend
@@tonys6730 A slice of bloody bread, even. Sounds gross. I mean, that must make the bread all soggy, right? I would have gone with butter and marmalade, or something.
A tip for Brazil is that: if it looks like it's raining or cloudy, start looking for the north. It is always very humid there where its close to the Amazon
I am Brazilian and instantly read "Cidade de Belem" on the side of the bus (Belém City) and "Nazaré" (a biblical name that a shit ton of citys have as its name in Brazil). I thought you were lost and that there would be no way to find it without having these two crucial information. Really glad i stuck by and saw your perseverance Bitencourt is a ultra commun name for streets in Brazil. Without knowing that it was in Belém and in Nazaré, you could easily get in to a random city with the same street names and spend your whole day searching. Great instinct bro, i cant even express how impressive it was when you zoomed out in literally the exact city your supposed to be at. Probably, even if you used google maps , you would be mislead to any other state. Gut>>>Cpu
@@АртёмДубравин-ы6у There is no meaning, it's just a "commun" surname, that is a French one. And we pronounce it like he said in the video, but we stop at R, because French words have no sound in the last letter (in that case T)
That first guess is absolutely unreal. There's no way you can ever ever get an almost random city in northern Turkey, get one of the main roads and say "yeah, Vadikent". Absolutely amazed, you are espectacular.
I'm really damn annoyed because I took longer, scanning the coast, narrowing it down to Trabzon, but got lazy at the last second, so I got the town, but not the exact spot, and that cost me 13 points.
After watching this for 28 min, i realized the classic YT Miracle happened (again) . I never searched for this or watched any Geo Guesser Videos before. Just the last 5 hours of clicking through yt brought me here.
Vadikent are just housing developments that are all over Turkey, luckily you found the right Vadikent. And sitesi means site Love the fact you add music that correlates with the location you're searching
@@ugcgaming2921 well I mean it was based on topography and the streets surrounding him, he just got insanely lucky with zooming in on that town first try. I think he would have gotten it regardless, it just could have taken him 5 times as long.
@@jonnybamberg5692 YEP!!! He is very persistent and knowledgeable, and just a tad bit lucky!!! He is soooo good!!! I am amazed by his critical thinking skills 🤯
Honestly that was incredible work and great investigating / deduction. It was very fun keeping up and learning along the way! One thing that irked me is how much Tom complains about hunger in this - He had breakfast and it was only 4 pm... it's been at most 12 hours since he last ate, if he woke and ate at 4 am. You're not starving man. All in all, enjoyable journey, thanks for the video!
I'm thoroughly impressed by the Brazilian one. I had no inkling if that was north or south and I'm amazed you found the right Nazaré, it's such a common name, I think most cities have a neighbourhood with that name lol. Well done
Also, pause at 14:15, right next to his cursor it says Nazare, just like he was looking for but never points that out. He said he couldn't find it but stumbled upon it by finding a street within it? Or did he find it and then the street and not show it here? Had me so confused I was like "dude, well that says Nazare which you apparently could find" lmao
Don't worry if searches take you too long you can always edit the boring parts out or speed up those parts it's all about getting the closest to the perfect score and trying to get the closest as you can, and personally I enjoy watching the whole process. Keep up the good content :)!
It’s frustrating and amusing at the same time when you see the clues on the map, or know the place, and you’re cajoling Tom to look left. I’ve stayed at Jimbaran many times, knew where to look lol… Good effort, love your grit!
It's the lack of eating that made you achieve this. When we don't eat for relatively long periods of time our brain goes into a high alert mode, we become more focused and manage to concentrate for longer. It's a remnant from our ancestors thousands of years ago. When they had no food they needed to become very alert, quick and focused in order to secure the food through hunting or other forms. Had you eaten at round 3 you wouldn't have achieved this perfect score. After eating brain decides to rest because that's what it cares about, getting food so that you don't starve and die. That's why some people use intermittent fasting where they go for around 16 or 18 hours of not eating anything. Congrats on the perfect score btw, looking forward to the next episode of guessing your patreon's location from a single picture
Sometimes life really is mysterious. What are the chances of me finding out about this just today and now seeing your comment here on a totally unrelated channel? That's crazy.
@@mezamezz Clearly I'd know when I'm in the Netherlands. Netherland is very distinguishable. It's just knowing WHERE in the Netherlands. Tom knows a lot of the cities.
A tip for finding cities in Brazil is take note of the phones prefixes (e.g. 41 is Paraná State, 11 is São Paulo State/Capital Region, etc - usually the X1 numbers are State Capitals). You can see in the Brazil round there were a 91 prefix. Also, cel numbers start with a 9 and house phones/bussiness start usually with a 3.
Sim, o problema é que para esse desafio ele não podia usar o google para nada, as únicas informações permitidas eram a imagem e o google maps (e sem poder buscar um endereço nele). Se pudesse ele teria achado tudo muito mais rápido e com menos fome :)
Trabzon! That is a historic city. I noticed on the map a bar called 1461, which is poignant. I don't know the name in Greek, but in English I know it as Trebizond. In 1204 the Fourth Crusade sacked and occupied Constantinople, cutting off the head of the Roman Empire. The Romans outside Constantinople splintered into a number of successor states, such as Nicaea, Epirus, and Trebizond. The Nicaeans eventually retook Constantinople in 1261 and restablished the Roman Empire for another two centuries, but the Romans in Trebizond never came back to the fold. The Ottomans eventually conquered Constantinople in 1453, which marked the end of the Roman Empire, but Trebizond was still independent. Trebizond would survive eight years longer than the Empire, before the Ottomans eventually took it in 1461. So Trabzon was the last holdout of independent Romans.
At 8:40, you had to look on the writing on the bus. In the red, next to the back wire, there is "Cete de Been" or similar ;) That was a huge hint! Glad you still managed to find it with perseverance.
Felt like that game had every type of round, 1 - insane guess/detective, 2 - easy peasy, 3 - old fashioned searching, 4&5 - combination of just searching and detective work
Holy shit, randomly recommended this and when you got to the Phoenix one, I recognized it instantly and laughed so hard at the sheer coincidence. I've been by that area so many times.
@@Shu7777ko I wouldn't be so quick to doubt him, I've seen his livestreams and he is this good. Also these vids that end up on RUclips are only the best of the best of his rounds, so it's not like these crazy guesses are a large percentage of his attempts
Im not turkish, but I used to live in turkey, and if im remembering correctly "site" (see teh) is equivalent to apartment complex, and the suffix -si gets added when it has like a name before it (so it kinda translates to " the vadikent apartment complex") I was laughing so hard at 3:03 because your guess of what it actually means is so accurate
at 2:30, after his "audio glitch" he spots the PERI sign then leans in to his left for a closer look then says "i dont think-" and pauses as he zooms in again on the PERI sign BUT his eyes look right (our left, not where he looked the first time).

@@Steerable6827 he looks at PERI twice. the first time he speeds it up while he looks right, but the second time he zooms in but looks left. He's faking you out by making you look at the screen and not him. do you see what i mean? that's why he jumps into the map and looks for Trabzon. I guarantee you that's how he cheated
I was living in Bali for 1 year, everytime he scroll around Denpasar I literally shouted "go south! go south!" Then he went north to Jembrana 😅 But hei, I'm amazed with your knowledge!! 👍🏻
Hey man, a little tip that's gonna help you out when searching inside Brasil: if you look at the side of the bus, you can kinda see that's written "cidade de Belém" in there, which means "city of Belém". Most (if not all) buses have the name of their cities on their sides (unless it's a travel bus)
at 12:42 he's in my city and I was like "yeah man you're definitely in the wrong place lol", Nazaré is the name of a saint so it could literally be anywhere
A huge hint for brazilian rounds. Most of the time you will see some phone numbers in the stores, if you know the Area Code from the main states, the searching job gets much more easy. Sao Paulo: from 11 to 19 Rio de Janeiro: from 21 to 29 Minas Gerais 31 to 39 The southern states: 41 to 59 Bahia: 71 to 79 Northeast: 81 to 89
The tip is good obviously, I just want to say that the first time I tried to use it I found two Sao Paulo phone numbers and I was in Porto Velho, which was quite random. But yeah it works most of the time obviously.

oh hi mark
I was so mad when I saw he got a perfect on round 3 and then watched and realized he never even saw the taxi with "Belem" on the side...
As much as I love Tom he’s not even close to being the best geoguessr player out there.. easily the most charismatic and fun to watch but if you want to see some mind blowing shit I suggest you check out R C the dude is nuts
that guess you took in Brazil was quite amazing, there's literally hundreds of city's named "Nazaré" here tho
Yeah, it's that Old World / New World thing, isn't it? People from the Old World couldn't stop naming things in the New World after places back home. North and South America are covered in those names lol
14:16 he missed the big “nazare” that hed been looking for! He still found it either way though 😂
I noticed that as well lol kept hoping he’d zoom out again and spot it but he found the position regardless, crazy stuff
The name of the city was also on the bus (Cidade de Belém / Belém City), but it was just super hard to read
I find it absolutely mad how he was able to find it by looking for the other street, and not the one with the name written right in front of him. Do you know how many streets share the same name in Brazil, enough to keep him searching for a whole week. Yet, he found it. Crazy stuff
Noticed the same 😆

A tip for Brazil is that: if it looks like it's raining or cloudy, start looking for the north. It is always very humid there where its close to the Amazon
i think south of BH also more likely

wouldn’t be surprised if it was SP also... always grey and cloudy

I am Brazilian and instantly read "Cidade de Belem" on the side of the bus (Belém City) and "Nazaré" (a biblical name that a shit ton of citys have as its name in Brazil). I thought you were lost and that there would be no way to find it without having these two crucial information.
Really glad i stuck by and saw your perseverance
Bitencourt is a ultra commun name for streets in Brazil. Without knowing that it was in Belém and in Nazaré, you could easily get in to a random city with the same street names and spend your whole day searching.
Great instinct bro, i cant even express how impressive it was when you zoomed out in literally the exact city your supposed to be at.
Probably, even if you used google maps , you would be mislead to any other state. Gut>>>Cpu
How do you pronounce Bitencourt? It sounds English\German. Does it mean something in your language?
@@АртёмДубравин-ы6у There is no meaning, it's just a "commun" surname, that is a French one. And we pronounce it like he said in the video, but we stop at R, because French words have no sound in the last letter (in that case T)

You have found a gem
Road: has a small hole in it
Tom: This occurs in the northern part of sambodia co ordinated around 68.886.19.10
Fun fact: He actually found the automotive and Nazare but he didnt see because he was zooming in and out
No bcuz he knows the exact place, yeah i think he s cheating
I saw it, too.
@@aymenneffar5642 Doesn't seem like he is.

@@rosieisbored I did and i thought the vid had frozen XD

Vadikent are just housing developments that are all over Turkey, luckily you found the right Vadikent. And sitesi means site
Love the fact you add music that correlates with the location you're searching
Omg then he got really lucky with that
what the heck?? then it is a totally impossible guess that he made. i refuse to believe that was a guess.
@@ugcgaming2921 well I mean it was based on topography and the streets surrounding him, he just got insanely lucky with zooming in on that town first try. I think he would have gotten it regardless, it just could have taken him 5 times as long.
Wait the music correlated to the place he was at?
@@ugcgaming2921 bro go watch some of his other videos he’s not just a random guy who clicks on the map he’s fucking nuts

@@ecb3828 A tad lucky? He luckily zoomed in on the first town in Turkey and got the 2nd place gifted to him.
Honestly that was incredible work and great investigating / deduction. It was very fun keeping up and learning along the way!
One thing that irked me is how much Tom complains about hunger in this - He had breakfast and it was only 4 pm... it's been at most 12 hours since he last ate, if he woke and ate at 4 am. You're not starving man.
All in all, enjoyable journey, thanks for the video!
The fight between a perfect score and your hunger made this even more gripping
“Okay, I’m gonna soldier on. I can do this. I don’t need to eat.”
This dude is built different.
I'm thoroughly impressed by the Brazilian one. I had no inkling if that was north or south and I'm amazed you found the right Nazaré, it's such a common name, I think most cities have a neighbourhood with that name lol. Well done
You handled that transition from play-along to PB attempt very well. 🖖🏽
when the sped up bits stop it's I'm always like: "has he found something or is he only more confused" anyone else?
14:16 you can see the neighborhood name of “NAZARE” clear as day and he never mentions it.
YESSSSSS
I was wondering if anyone else saw that lol
Was looking for your comment lol I was screaming inside

i felt so bad for him during the Nazaré round, i'm pretty sure "Belém" was written on the side of the bus
Yup, got that one petty quickly, fucked up the Chile one tho thought I was in Italy for some reason, mixed up Spanish and Italian
Yep I found it kinda strange that he didn't look closely on the bus they in most cases have the city name written on it
nazare is a town in portugal that’s home to one of the worlds most famous waves
Also, pause at 14:15, right next to his cursor it says Nazare, just like he was looking for but never points that out. He said he couldn't find it but stumbled upon it by finding a street within it? Or did he find it and then the street and not show it here? Had me so confused I was like "dude, well that says Nazare which you apparently could find" lmao
@@lunapats to be fair, I know a few licks of spanish and can mostly understand Italian, so they are very similar
The one in Brazil, you can read on the bus: Cidade de Belém (City of Belem). The capital of the state of Pará. It would have saved a lot of time there
for reals omg, I felt like screaming at the screen
I dont see it
Don't worry if searches take you too long you can always edit the boring parts out or speed up those parts it's all about getting the closest to the perfect score and trying to get the closest as you can, and personally I enjoy watching the whole process. Keep up the good content :)!
It’s frustrating and amusing at the same time when you see the clues on the map, or know the place, and you’re cajoling Tom to look left. I’ve stayed at Jimbaran many times, knew where to look lol… Good effort, love your grit!
"try and beat my score, it's great fun"
*Only 8 geoguessr players have ever done this well*
It's the lack of eating that made you achieve this. When we don't eat for relatively long periods of time our brain goes into a high alert mode, we become more focused and manage to concentrate for longer. It's a remnant from our ancestors thousands of years ago. When they had no food they needed to become very alert, quick and focused in order to secure the food through hunting or other forms. Had you eaten at round 3 you wouldn't have achieved this perfect score. After eating brain decides to rest because that's what it cares about, getting food so that you don't starve and die. That's why some people use intermittent fasting where they go for around 16 or 18 hours of not eating anything. Congrats on the perfect score btw, looking forward to the next episode of guessing your patreon's location from a single picture

A tip for finding cities in Brazil is take note of the phones prefixes (e.g. 41 is Paraná State, 11 is São Paulo State/Capital Region, etc - usually the X1 numbers are State Capitals). You can see in the Brazil round there were a 91 prefix. Also, cel numbers start with a 9 and house phones/bussiness start usually with a 3.

Boss ending 😂
Trabzon! That is a historic city. I noticed on the map a bar called 1461, which is poignant. I don't know the name in Greek, but in English I know it as Trebizond.
In 1204 the Fourth Crusade sacked and occupied Constantinople, cutting off the head of the Roman Empire. The Romans outside Constantinople splintered into a number of successor states, such as Nicaea, Epirus, and Trebizond. The Nicaeans eventually retook Constantinople in 1261 and restablished the Roman Empire for another two centuries, but the Romans in Trebizond never came back to the fold.
The Ottomans eventually conquered Constantinople in 1453, which marked the end of the Roman Empire, but Trebizond was still independent. Trebizond would survive eight years longer than the Empire, before the Ottomans eventually took it in 1461. So Trabzon was the last holdout of independent Romans.
I can already imagine for the sped up parts him googling 'generic Brazilian/Chilean/Indonesian music'

Hey, he hadn't eaten all day if you don't count breakfast.
At 8:40, you had to look on the writing on the bus. In the red, next to the back wire, there is "Cete de Been" or similar ;) That was a huge hint! Glad you still managed to find it with perseverance.
Felt like that game had every type of round, 1 - insane guess/detective, 2 - easy peasy, 3 - old fashioned searching, 4&5 - combination of just searching and detective work

Im not turkish, but I used to live in turkey, and if im remembering correctly "site" (see teh) is equivalent to apartment complex, and the suffix -si gets added when it has like a name before it (so it kinda translates to " the vadikent apartment complex")
I was laughing so hard at 3:03 because your guess of what it actually means is so accurate
at 2:30, after his "audio glitch" he spots the PERI sign then leans in to his left for a closer look then says "i dont think-" and pauses as he zooms in again on the PERI sign BUT his eyes look right (our left, not where he looked the first time). He is inarguably looking at the answer 'Trabzon' on a second screen provided by the real detective looking up 'Vadikent Toki Sitesi' in Turkey. Straight away he feels like getting into the map because he knows exactly where to look...Trabzon, which he finds at 3:15 .
Call me a sceptic but I call bullshlt 🕵️♂️
@@ekim613 it might just be the face cam is flipped
@@Steerable6827 he looks at PERI twice. the first time he speeds it up while he looks right, but the second time he zooms in but looks left.

Hey man, a little tip that's gonna help you out when searching inside Brasil: if you look at the side of the bus, you can kinda see that's written "cidade de Belém" in there, which means "city of Belém". Most (if not all) buses have the name of their cities on their sides (unless it's a travel bus)
Your sense of geography is incredible.
Just started watching your vids, absolutely brilliant talent spotting these places mate. Can’t stop watching now!
at 12:42 he's in my city and I was like "yeah man you're definitely in the wrong place lol", Nazaré is the name of a saint so it could literally be anywhere
qual a chance de trombar com um cipriano santos num video aleatorio de geoguessr????
00:00 Tom trying to see the iconic "sky rift"
A huge hint for brazilian rounds. Most of the time you will see some phone numbers in the stores, if you know the Area Code from the main states, the searching job gets much more easy.
Sao Paulo: from 11 to 19
Rio de Janeiro: from 21 to 29
Minas Gerais 31 to 39
The southern states: 41 to 59
Bahia: 71 to 79
Northeast: 81 to 89
And sra is senhora
The tip is good obviously, I just want to say that the first time I tried to use it I found two Sao Paulo phone numbers and I was in Porto Velho, which was quite random. But yeah it works most of the time obviously.
Well, in this case "City of Belem" on the bus was a much bigger hint. I was full on anxiety mode for many minutes until he went to Belem.
Na parte de Nazaré.. ja sabia que era Belém... skksks sou de manaus. N sei pq mas imaginei que era Belém ksk (acho que pelo Nazaré) kk
The country-appropriate soundtracks under each sped-up search party were such a nice touch. The Chilean one was beautiful, I wonder what it was!
