Man Visits Every Country in the World in 7 Years

55-year-old Indian citizen Kashi Samaddar completed a trip that included a stop in every country in the world. He set a world record by finishing his journey in less than seven years. There are two interesting aspects to this story: 1. He decided to do it after getting hassled for having an Indian passport, and 2. His pictures are terrible. The Guinness Book of World records requires only that you use public transportation and set foot in every country to qualify for the record. That way you get a lot of bus station and airport photos over the course of seven years. I like that he did it while wearing a suit. The guy spent about $700k on the travels, and the hardest country to visit was Moldova, where it took him several years of rejections to get a visa. Emissions! Global warming world record! Raaah! Before everyone freaks out about how this guy’s ruining the world, we should take a moment to consider that he’s likely the only guy in the world who would want to spend 7 years visiting airports and bus stations.
