Did you know that Dave Kunst was the first person to cross the entire world on foot? But during this time, Dave used an airplane to cross the oceans. In this entire circumnavigation, Dave covered a total distance of 27 kilometers, although in small pieces, but on foot. But the person I am going to talk about today is not Dave, but perhaps he is two hands ahead of Dave.This man is determined to cross the world's longest continuous path, that too only on foot. Yes, where our thinking ends, Karl Bushby's thinking also begins. Not five thousand kilometers, not 10 thousand, not 25 thousand kilometers. On this journey, he has amazingly covered 47 kilometers on his feet alone, and surprisingly, his journey is not over even today.25 countries, six deserts, seven mountain ranges and 27 airs in time, the goal is to walk around the world on foot and that too without any support. But how come I am your dear friend Alex? Welcome back to Windice friends.

English paratrooper Carl Bushby, who made the dangerous feat of crossing the world's longest route on foot. On November 1, 1998,

he had only $500 in his pocket and started his journey from the city of Punta Arena, located on the southern tip of Chile.Carl named this mission the Goliath Expedition. He had embarked on a mission in which he had to cross the entire American continent to Russia, then from there to Asia and then to England to end his journey in his hometown. This total distance is 58 kilometers. According to Carl's estimate, if he walked even 19 kilometers a day, he would easily complete this journey in eight years. But he did not know that the difficulties he was going to face on this journey would not end even after 27 years.Carl Bushby made two rules for his expedition: first, no ride would be used on this journey, no train, car, plane, or any motorized vehicle would be used. He would have to walk every step of the way. And second, if he had to stop his journey in the middle, he would have to start back exactly where he had last stepped. These rules may seem easy to hear, but Carl paid the price for them with years of loneliness, visa problems, and the fear of death.

Carl Bushby took his first steps on the rocks of South America. Hot weather, wild paths and a new challenge at every turn of the earth. After leaving Chile, he initially moved along the Pacific coast and along the edge of the Andes mountains. This saved him from crossing the difficult part of the world's largest Amazon rainforest. But before heading to Central America, what worried him the most was the weather and terrain. At the beginning of the journey in patagonia, he encountered very strong and cold winds.Then, walking up and down the world's longest mountain range, the Andes, is an impossible task in itself. In the north of Chile, they had to pass through the world's driest and most desolate areas, such as the Atacama Desert. The biggest challenge here was the lack of water and the intense heat during the day. Along with the necessary equipment, they had to carry more water than necessary for the first time.Carl Bushby had a push cart with him, a small cart with two wheels, in which he could easily pull food, clothes, and some necessary supplies. Carl says that while crossing the Atacama Desert, I only stopped when I found water. Crossing South America was certainly a major milestone, but the real challenge was the Darién Gap, a 320-kilometer passage between Colombia and Panama called the Darién Gap.Here is a dense forest, with strange insects and poisonous snakes, as well as gorilla gangs. Carl had to escape from all this and get out of here. While crossing the Panama border, he was arrested by the Panamanian police and kept in jail for 18 days, but after explaining, when he was released, according to the rules, he started his journey back from where he left off. Crossing Central America was also a big challenge in itself. There is a large chain of small countries here. Due to visa problems in each country, it took him a long time at the border.By 2002, Carl had crossed Central America, then he entered the US, where sometimes he had to walk on long highways to avoid traffic, and sometimes he had to fight the scorching heat of the Solar Desert. The weather here was hotter than Chile and the Atacama Desert. By 2005, when he reached Canada and Alaska, the weather had completely changed. Here he had to endure severe cold, snow, and the most difficult train journey. In the remote areas of Alaska where there were no roads, he often used dog sledding trails to carry supplies and find his way.The slides compress the snow a little, allowing it to be walked on. But even at this point, Carl did not help the dogs because it would have broken their most important role, which is not to take help from anyone. The difficulties that Carl Bushby faced after Alaska proved to be the biggest and most dangerous of the Kalait Express. In order to enter Siberia, Russia, from Alaska in North America, he had to cross the Baring Straight.An ice-covered sea that connects the United States and Russia. The biggest challenge here is that the ice of the Bering Strait does not stay in one place. Large pieces of ice are constantly moving due to ocean waves. Between these pieces of ice is open sea. Carl also swam in cold water several times to get from one piece to another, where the extreme cold of the ocean and the risk of hypothermia hung over his head.

Carl crossed this part of the Bering Strait on foot with a French adventurer, Dmitry Kiefer.This 240-kilometer journey was a dangerous storm of optics and 14 days without sleep. Finally, when he reached Russia, he faced the longest obstacle of the journey. The Russian authorities arrested him. Of course, Carl had a visa to enter Russia, but the Russian authorities said that the Bering Strait was not an official port of entry. Due to this issue,

Carl was deported and sent back to the UK. His journey could have ended here.His journey could have ended here, but because Carl had now become a famous figure, British Deputy Prime Minister John Presscard and Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich intervened and Carl was granted permission to travel to Russia, but the journey was not easy. His visas were only valid for 90 days, meaning that after every 90 days he had to leave Russia and return to another country. Many times, this delay lasted for months.In 2008, his funding ran out, and he stopped in Mexico and waited for two years.
