What's good everyone? It's ZigZag here. Welcome back to another Geographic video. And today, you already know what's going on. I'm joined by my dearest friend Jack. How's it going, Jack? Yeah, it's going well for you. That's what it's all about. In today's video, I have a pretty interesting concept. We're going to start off in a

0:14

concept. We're going to start off in a normal jewel against each other, but I'm only allowed to guess the country of Russia. Yep, that sounds fantastic. Then, Jack, I'm assuming you're going to beat me on that. And every time you win a jewel, I'm allowed to nominate a country that I'm allowed to guess as well. So in the first jewel, only

0:29

country that I'm allowed to guess as well. So in the first jewel, only Russia. In the second jewel, maybe Russia and Brazil or Russia and Australia or whatever I pick. And then so forth and so forth. That sounds great. I'm worried that you are still going to beat me on the first game, but we will see what happens. It is possible, but I your chances

0:44

possible, but I your chances because as soon as it's anywhere that's not Europe, you're going to be looking pretty good. I think you would hope, wouldn't you? You would. You would. All , Jack. Let's see what happens. Okay. Best of luck to you. Best of luck in the first match. Let's go. Okay guys, Russia only. The good thing is Russia is

0:58

Russia only. The good thing is Russia is a very huge country. So if it's anywhere in, for example, we're playing NPZ. If it's anywhere in Bhutan, then Russia is not that far away. I think the closest point in Russia would be here. So let's guess and see what Jack can come up with. Now Russia is a very wide

1:14

up with. Now Russia is a very wide country. So even though I've got a giant advantage, it's not that giant because I have no clue where I am. , he's dropped the guess. I forgot he'd be coming in thick and fast. , we are on the west, which makes me think we're I don't know which hemisphere to go. Maybe Colombia on the aquarium.

1:29

go. Maybe Colombia on the aquarium. I don't know. So, if it's South America, I've got this in the bag. Let's see. Okay, Jack is in Colombia. It was a very difficult round to be fair. And we do a,000 points of damage, so that's a really good start. But, of course, Russia was a very handy country to have in that one.

1:43

in that one. Okay, nice. It was Bhutan. Of course, he knows Bhutan. Look, he's getting as close as he can to Bhutan. It's so annoying this guy. This one though is Argentina and the closest point we can get to Argentina, my gosh, it's probably here. Suffice to say,

2:01

there is nowhere close to Argentina in Russia. So, that's no good for us. , what are these crazy landscapes? I can't cope with this. So, we are driving on the . We've got lots and lots of nice mountains and the sun is in the

2:18

north. So, southern hemisphere. So this time hopefully it's Chile and I will absolutely take a load of points please. Okay, nicely played from Jack there. He is in Chile. That's going to be 1,000 points of damage. Yes. Nice. , I was No, it was Argentina, but I was close. I wish we' done more

2:34

but I was close. I wish we' done more damage, but we did do some damage. Okay, round number three. This is going to be somewhere on the island of Borneo. And obviously we're probably going to go for a similar click here. This time I think Vladivosto on the North Korean border here would be our best option. Did that Russia and North Korea

2:48

Did that Russia and North Korea have this tiny border here together? You don't normally think of the fact that Norway and North Korea border the same country, but that's just how big Russia is. All , so we've got the yellow lines in the road, so not Europe. The sun is in the south, so northern hemisphere. It looks Asian at

3:03

hemisphere. It looks Asian at the moment. We've got some motorcyclists. I don't quite understand these buildings. We've got poles there that he'll recognize. Yeah, somewhere in Asia. So hopefully I'll be okay if I go bottom of Thailand, maybe. Yeah, why not? Let's go for it. Jack with a decent

3:17

not? Let's go for it. Jack with a decent guess here in Thailand doing more damage. Good stuff from Jack here so far. I've got to say, by the way, nice. I am closer. So, it was Indonesia and he's gone as close as he can. Look at that. I love him zooming in on the borders. We are winning round one. Just pretend that didn't happen. Okay, round

3:33

pretend that didn't happen. Okay, round number four. We are in Poland now. Is it Poland? Yeah, I think it is. And Poland is one of these countries that's pretty good for us because this piece of Russia here called Kinenrad is very close. That being said, we do have Polish everywhere here. So, I think Jack will at least recognize that

3:48

think Jack will at least recognize that it's Europe. We've got a parking sign. Ooh, modern looking house. Ooh, more oldfashioned looking church, but not that oldfashioned. It's quite a modern church to be fair. The church standards. Why am I witting on about churches? I need to guess somewhere. Is it USA? Maybe. I've panicked and rushed

4:03

Maybe. I've panicked and rushed into this one. Maybe Canada. Let's go Winnipeg, Canada. Honestly, no clue. I rushed into it. Jack went Canada. , no. That's big damage, by the way. 3.7K. no. no. If we get Europe again and Jack fails to recognize

4:16

Europe again and Jack fails to recognize it, that could be disastrous. , he's gone in the little exclave or inclave, whatever it's called. That was a bad guess. Fortunately for Jack, we're in the USA here, so that's going to be good news for him. Closest point in the US. , we're probably going to be

4:32

mean, we're probably going to be guessing again here. I would say that's going to be the closest point down to wherever this is in Texas or something. , surely Jack is closer than me here. If he's not, that's going to be a bit awkward because we might win round one. Lochnney Crest, ? Okay. Could this be in the middle of the USA, maybe? Let's just check the

4:48

of the USA, maybe? Let's just check the sun. The sun is more so in the south, so northern hemisphere. I'm going to go Texas. I think I've just seen a little Yes, I've just seen a little Texas sign. I'm going to take lots of points here, please. Okay, Jack, lock in. Just one good guess here. And would you look at that? He even got the fact that it was

5:02

that? He even got the fact that it was Texas. That will be knockout damage, Jack, from behind. We may have to alter the rules a little bit though because that was a bit closer than I thought. Nice. Good. I wish I'd seen that Texas sign just a bit earlier. Good. We finished him up. We did it. It was up in

5:17

finished him up. We did it. It was up in the air for a moment, but we got there. Okay, Jack. GG's. GG's. Wow. That definitely could have gone either way. It could have gone either way. It makes me think maybe we should just leave it with Russia. Yeah. Okay. Until I know that I'm very much there. As soon as you do an early guess, I just start

5:32

as you do an early guess, I just start panicking and that's when I throw away these rounds. Yeah. If you manage to beat me flawlessly, then I'll add a country. Otherwise, we'll stick with Russia. Okay. Okay. Yeah, that sounds a good idea to me. All , good luck. Yeah, best of luck. All , I'm going to go tryh hard mode on Russia. See if I can do a win Russia only. This

5:47

See if I can do a win Russia only. This looks Serbia. Best option for us is probably here in Crashodar. Now, that is going to be relatively close. I would still expect Jack to get closer here, though. We do have an antenna. Still thought Serbia though. Wiggle. Focus truck lock

6:01

Still thought Serbia though. Wiggle. Focus truck lock in brawl. Look at the sun first so you don't panic around. It's very much northern hemisphere. , look at it. What's he guessing for so early? looks a bit Spanish, maybe. Could we say it's Spanish? Well, you could say it looks Spanish. Yeah, I'm going to go Spain. And I'll go somewhat near

6:15

to go Spain. And I'll go somewhat near Valencia. Why not? I'm feeling good for this round cuz he can't get super close. It is Serbia just outside of Belgrade there. Quite a difficult round. Jackson Spain, so that's going to be a good start for us. Obviously, anything in Europe is definitely doable. , no. It is closer than me. It was

6:30

is closer than me. It was Serbia. Okay, it's only a teeny tiny bit of damage, though. Okay, next one here. We're back in Europe. This is this is Denmark. We're going to go in Kinenrad here. That is definitely the closest we can get. Ooh, quite a UK looking property. Ooh, take it back. No,

6:46

not UK. It's got to be Sweden or something, ? Yeah, the more you look around. Definitely looks Scandinavian. Look at all of the shapes of all the roofs. Okay, so he can still get quite close here. I'll go near Goththingberg. No, I'm going to go near Stockholm cuz I think that makes more sense with where he can guess. Would

7:00

Stockholm cuz I think that makes more sense with where he can guess. Would Jack accidentally go to the United States? It is possible though he's in Sweden. I was a bit worried because the closest car there had no blue strip on the license plate. , I should have stuck with Goththingberg. , look at that. He can really get quite close. He still did a little bit of damage to

7:13

at that. He can really get quite close. He still did a little bit of damage to me there. It was Denmark. Okay, next one here. We're in the Netherlands again. We got the same guess. , this is going to be a very common guess for us because it's the closest we can get in Europe to the west. Ooh, similar. Could be the same area again to

7:27

similar. Could be the same area again to be fair. What's he guessing for so fast? He's really quite stressing me out to be honest. There's just no need for this. Yeah, we're going to go just similar to where we just were, but I'll go so that I'm I'm sneaking near Sweden. Okay, let's guess. Jack may be sensing from the fact that I'm guessing very quickly

7:43

the fact that I'm guessing very quickly that it will be Europe here. And he does his first damage in Denmark. Very nicely done. It's a tight jewel so far, but I haven't had any really bad rounds yet. This time it was Netherlands. And look, he loves this crafty little spot. You can't get enough of it, but we finally done a bit of damage to him. Okay, this

7:57

done a bit of damage to him. Okay, this is Kenya. Kenya is nowhere near Russia. This is going to be closest point down here on the Azabaijani border. It's not that far. We could negate a few points here, but it's going to be pretty bad regardless. Ooh, this is good cuz we need to be out

8:11

Ooh, this is good cuz we need to be out of Europe really. So, we've got some people playing on bikes. It looks we can't get any clues here. Surely, if I go with Kenya, I'll be fine. Even if it's anywhere in Africa, ? Yeah. He's probably going to go about here above Georgia, maybe. And Jack,

8:26

here above Georgia, maybe. And Jack, eternal lover of Kenya, has gotten it correct. So that's going to be bad damage. But it comes one round before the multis kick in. Yeah, there. That's exactly where he's gone. And it was Kenya. Very nice. Keep us out of Europe,

8:42

please. It's 1.5 times damage now, but wasn't last round, so we do survive. This is Brazil. Okay, another country which we really can't roll. And again, I guess the best guess we can do is over here. So we have a sun in the north. So southern hemisphere. So that

8:55

north. So southern hemisphere. So that looks Spanish. , we've got another sign here. Yeah, that looks Spanish, doesn't it? So, we've goted this in the bag, ? Anywhere I go, I've I've I've got this cuz it's got to be South America. So, I'm going to go I don't know. I'm going to go around Colombia, but I don't think I need to

9:10

don't know. I'm going to go around Colombia, but I don't think I need to worry about it too much. And Jack is in Colombia, but that may be enough at 1.5 times damage. Not quite. 1.1k. Teasing me. Is Jack should have been over there, but it's not. Yes, it was Brazil, but it does not matter. Ooh, yeah, there's that damage. I thought we

9:26

yeah, there's that damage. I thought we would finish him there, but we've got him hanging on. Next one here. , it's Taiwan. Taiwan's not that bad. We can guess Vostock. It's a nice quick guess. It is not that far from Taiwan, so I definitely don't mind it. It's a difficult round, too. Jack may miss this. Ooh, okay. Sun is southern

9:44

hemisphere. So, we're over in the north. , I'm very confused by this one. Ooh, he might do some damage to me here cuz I don't know where this is. It's very, very mountainous, but also quite warm looking. Car's not giving me any anything. I'm going in Vietnam. I don't even know if they've got coverage. Yeah, I don't know. Let's see. And okay, not

9:59

I don't know. Let's see. And okay, not too bad there. Jack is at least in Vietnam, and he's going to be closer than me narrowly, but I stay alive. Okay, it's Taiwan, so he got as close as he could. , not as much damage as I would have liked. , this is very fast-paced. I'm stressed
