Google Maps

I've been playing around with Google Maps recently, and just for a laugh I asked it for directions from New York, America to Moscow, Russia. Surprisingly, I got detailed instructions on how to travel between these two cities. But the absolute best was directions 22 to 24.

22. Turn right at Long Wharf 0.1 miles
23. Swim across the Atlantic Ocean 3462 miles
24. Slight right at E05 0.5 miles

But it doesn't end there. They actually calculated the time it would take you to swim that distance, because the total travel time it would take to cover the 5 526 miles is given as about 30 days & 13 hours.

Brilliant
