Welcome back to another GeoGuessA friend
0:01
I am once again with my secondary geography friend. It's Josh. This is like a gut punch
0:08
I'm hurting my feelings. I mean, secondary is pretty good. Out of like all of my friends
0:13
secondary is, you know, pretty solid. It's pretty up there. I'm an afterthought. It's okay. Well, anyway, I'm back with Josh
0:18
and we are doing a video that I have done a few times with my primary GeoGuessA friend
0:23
Josh cannot see the round and I have to say a one word clue
0:27
which will allow him to work out the location. Now, that's obviously incredibly difficult
0:31
which is why we're starting off this video playing on the dumb test. So I think we'll just need to get into this
0:37
Yeah, and to see how it goes. And people will be able to see what happens, yeah. We might be terrible at this
0:41
This is quite an important team-building exercise for the two of us, I reckon. So you're saying one word, I see nothing
0:46
and from that one word, I have to guess somewhere. Right, what could possibly go wrong
0:50
And tell me you roughly know the dumb test locations, right? No
0:54
Why would I know the dumb test locations? Well, that makes things slightly more difficult. It's stuff like..
0:59
Obvious stuff, like the Eiffel Tower or that stuff, right? Yeah, Eiffel Tower's on there, Big Ben's on there
1:04
It's that kind of thing, all right? All the biggest landmarks. Oh, God. Oh, God. Right, okay
1:07
I'm going to jump into it and we'll see what happens. Okay, sure. Round number one
1:11
Right. Okay. And just in case, because I haven't mentioned it, I can't say anything geographical as well
1:18
So, I've already thought of my word. Are you ready for it? Yeah. Tripod
1:23
You said tripod? Yep. I mean, like, we just discussed the Eiffel Tower, so maybe that's a tripod
1:29
I'm saying nothing, Josh. Nothing to do with me. A tripod has three legs. Okay
1:33
The Eiffel Tower's got four legs. Nothing to do with me, Josh
1:38
It is, because it's your word. It's everything to do with you, because all I see on my screen, right, is matte and black
1:44
It's out of my hands now. Whatever happens, happens. It's a dumb test. I need to think of a tripod
1:48
Let me think of tripods around the world. It has to be Eiffel Tower. In the world, what's a dumb test location that I'm..
1:54
Okay, do you know what? Let's just start off of being strong and convincing in our guesses
2:00
Okay. I like that from my guess. I've got an Eiffel Tower. All right, let's take a look
2:04
He got it! Let's go. Oh, my God. I mean, yeah, I got there to show a tripod
2:09
It's actually a good word. I mean, I will be honest. When you pointed out there was four legs to the Eiffel Tower
2:13
it did blow my mind a little bit because it's just not something I've thought about. But I still stand by tripod being a pretty solid clue
2:19
as we've seen. It was a clue. It was a good clue. That's a good start. I got a 5k, so that was definitely a good clue
2:23
I'm now quite fearful, though, that I didn't realise that you didn't just kind of know all of the dumb test locations
2:28
How many are there? There's like 14, I think. Oh, okay. We're just going to have to go with it
2:32
But after we've done this five rounds, we're going to switch places as well. So it should be interesting to see what happens
2:37
Okay. Okay. Round number two. Hopefully we get another easy one. Let's take a look
2:43
Oh my. Hello? Don't like that. You said, oh my, hello. That's a clue in itself
2:47
Hmm. How do I want to do this? What should I say? think think think think
2:52
it can't be geographical and you can't name buildings and you can't you're basically just going to describe what you see
2:58
in one word it's not necessarily describing what you see sometimes you could be saying stereotypes
3:03
related to countries and nationalities those sort of things on this occasion I'm going to say
3:10
and I'm scared that I might get this wrong because I'm not an expert in this area
3:13
I'm going to say Formula 1 you're saying Formula 1 the issue of Formula 1 is
3:19
there's many many formula one circuits i get that when you think of big formula one circuits
3:23
though you'll think of monaco for sure very famous uh f1 circuit it's a dumb test so maybe
3:30
like that would be very obvious silverson great f1 circuit but not very obvious monaco surely
3:35
it's a dumb test i have singapore race circuit in there are they and this is at the marina bay sands
3:39
uh no i i've got conviction today i have to go with where my gut is i think um where the hell
3:46
Monaco down here. Hopefully we're right on. I'm gonna click circuit to Monaco. Maybe you can
3:52
on the ramp. Maybe it's on the ramp. I'm going here. Yes, you got it. Yes. See, I'm not dumb
3:59
Yeah, so it was outside of the, uh, just a Monte Carlo casino, but I thought as long as we could
4:03
get Monaco locked in, we will absolutely take that. So far, so good. You're getting some great clues
4:08
here. And do you know what, Josh? The YouTube comments of the world have, uh, previously pointed
4:11
out that sometimes you, you know, are prone to overthinking, talking yourself out of things
4:15
but today you're just locking in with conviction and I've got a lot of respect for it
4:19
Ready two rounds in, don't speak too soon. Okay, let's move on to the next one
4:23
So far, it's two for two. Ooh, hmm. You're instantly salivated. Yeah
4:30
You said, ooh. This is the one that I didn't want because even I'm not totally sure where it is
4:36
Okay, it's not an obvious location, so I'm going to wipe out London out of my brain instantly
4:40
Yeah, I've already given a little bit away. How do I do this
4:45
I'm hoping this isn't offensive, but I think I've got to go with it anyway. I'm going to say cookie
4:51
Cookie. Cookie? Yeah. Cookie? Yeah. Oh, what are you on about, bro
4:55
Yeah, I'm not feeling great about this one, but I don't want to use clues I've used in my other videos with Oscar
5:01
I want everything to be brand new. Oh, this is really reaching. Maybe you like Squid Game
5:05
and there's that thing where they lick the cookie and make it break, so it's somewhere in South Korea. Is there an obvious dumb test in South Korea, though
5:10
Not really. Somewhere in America, like New York cookies. but you'd say St. Paul from New York, surely
5:16
Is that an A cookie? I'm going to help a tiny bit
5:21
What kind of cookies can you think of? Millie's cookies, chocolate chip cookies
5:24
White chocolate chip cookies God, I hope the comments know what I'm talking about
5:29
Oh, nah Is it Maryland cookies? But then, what's in Maryland that's obvious
5:36
Unless it in America is that the point you saying to me I said enough now You said you not even sure what this is Why would you say cookie though What other cookies are there
5:48
Maybe it's not that cookie. I swear there's a Maryland in America. There is. It's at the top on the
5:54
right. Near Maine? Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota? Wait, I can't find it either. I thought it was over there
6:00
Where's Maryland? Nah, I swear there's a Maryland somewhere around it. It's below New York, okay. Under Pennsylvania
6:05
Okay, yeah. I honestly thought it was where main ones. Ah, okay
6:10
Okay, I think I've got you. Oh my god, okay. So you said Maryland, or did you say cookies? I never said Maryland
6:16
You said cookie, and I've got to Maryland, unless it is South Korea and it's a good game. I don't even know
6:21
anywhere in South Korea would be obvious, people. But, Washington, D.C. White House
6:26
could be a good vibe. That's what I'm thinking. It's a big place, right
6:31
Surely, Maryland cookies. Yeah, you know what? I'm about it today. I've got this. Okay
6:38
Oh, no. I guess. Shit, shit, shit, shit, shit. What the hell
6:44
Shanghai! Yeah, so now you know it's Shanghai. Are you any idea? Oh, fortune cookies
6:48
Yeah. Oh, you stupid, stupid, stupid. My guess was pretty good, by the way. Like, how I got there was pretty good, no
6:53
I respect. Marilyn, there's some logic there. I can understand that. There's a lot of logic there
6:56
I don't know if anything. Don't mention another word, but yeah, I couldn't think of another word. The comments can maybe let me know something else
7:02
Shanghai. That would perhaps be good. In a previous one, I did the word futuristic
7:06
That could put me down to all types of places still. Anywhere in China, I think, would have been a win
7:10
But sadly, you were absolutely nowhere near... Shanghai is in a dumb test. I'd say it's the most obscure location in the dumb test, to be honest
7:16
I don't know what Shanghai skyline looks like. But perhaps that's my ignorance to say such a thing. Let's just move into round number four
7:22
And hopefully we can get back on track. Not many points there. It's okay. Don't worry about it. Don't worry about it
7:26
Mmm. Okay. See, I am not sure that you will know this one
7:33
We're just gonna have to go for it. It's like last time all over again. I'm gonna say square
7:38
Did you catch it? Did you hear it? Square I'd also, because I believe this to be a tricky one for someone not familiar with the dumb test
7:49
I would be willing to provide a secondary word Are you interested in that? Well let me just hear out square and then you can
7:54
No problem If I'm not completely off If you're thinking about square Well there's many things
8:00
Is it like a famous square? It's not gonna be London, it might be Trafalgar Square You wouldn't say that, it'd be stupid
8:04
There's Times Square in New York Yeah, but I couldn't say that could I because it's including the name
8:08
Oh, true. It's not a famous square. For my views, I'm gonna scroll on in and show them what the location is
8:13
There you go. It's like a square... Square state? Is it in..
8:22
What being a dumb test? You may think of your second word. So far, you've been on the right kind of tracks, but your second word is 90
8:29
Are I combining those words? They're linked. They're very much linked, but they don't directly go next to each other
8:40
9T. Yeah, 9Ts, but 9T square. 9T and square. Like a 90 degree angle
8:47
That would be a square anyway. 9T. I'm not getting close about you saying
8:52
I'm just repeating the word. 9T and square. I just don't think you've heard of this place
8:58
I'll respond with noises as you say things. Have I not heard of the place? It's in America somewhere
9:05
On the West Coast. I can't help you out of that one. My advice would be to look at America
9:10
Look at the USA. That's what I've got right now. I'm massively looking at America
9:14
Maybe it's in Colorado. It could be in Wyoming, actually. You repeat that
9:23
It could be in Colorado. Mmm. Mmm. Okay. Maybe it's in Denver
9:29
Right, you've had enough now. There's no more words from me. Oh, okay. Take the info you've got now and apply 90 to it
9:34
Maybe there's... So Colorado's a square. I can see a road that's 25 and 70, so it's not that one
9:40
I wonder what association 90 has got with a square. The angle. Oh
9:45
Denver Zoo. It's a corner. Maybe it's on the actual corner of the square
9:51
No, surely not. Got 17 seconds Josh. It's a pretty high stress situation right now
9:58
I don't know where to guess. You've got to use your clues bro. 90. I've gone in the centre of Colorado right now
10:04
Okay, well let's see. Let's see where it was. There's a corner instead. Ah, it was in that corner
10:10
It's the four corners monument. Sad, you were sounding so close at one point
10:16
Well, I actually didn't click on it because of that whole grey area. Yeah, yeah, that's completely fair
10:21
But then, yeah, you zoom in really close. and then it's revealed. Should've zoomed in on them all
10:25
shouldn't I, really? Yeah. We've had a good first two and then a bad second two
10:29
And we're gonna end with Big Ben right now. I'm manifesting Big Ben and you're gonna say
10:33
anything you want. You can say like, flower pot. And I'm like, shit, Bill and Ben, the flower pot men
10:37
I like that. That's a good one. You should've saved that for our rant. Right. It's not Big Ben
10:42
He's not smiled or laughed. Okay. I'm just going to say cannabis
10:48
Cannabis? Yeah. So weed is legal in this place. Now this could be many things
10:52
That's the issue you've gone with here. Like, you could go... Like, Netherlands brings to mind
10:56
instantly for Amsterdam. But maybe, like... Maybe it's LA. Because where in Amsterdam
11:03
or in Netherlands is, like... Unless it's literally the train station that says Amsterdam
11:09
or something of it. What would be a dumb test about it? Maybe you can see
11:13
the Hollywood sign? Maybe it would say movie or something. I'm just leaving you to your thoughts this round, Josh
11:17
Can this? Maybe it America Mary Can and it in an abyss So it in L And maybe it in the abyss of L
11:32
Maybe it's somewhere over. I think you can see the Hollywood sign, like Griffith Park, Hollywood land
11:41
What does Jack sucks at life? Jack sucks at guessing. Jack sucks at stuff
11:45
What does he think of when he thinks of cannabis? Does he think of America and L.A.? Or does he think of Netherlands
11:49
Does he think of somewhere else? Maybe he likes it in Bangkok. Maybe he likes it in Bangkok
11:56
I'm just going to go like the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Or the Hollywood sign, maybe
12:01
Right. Josh. Yeah? I'm not saying anything else. That sounds like I'm wrong. If it was the Hollywood sign, perhaps I'd have said something like, I don't know, movie
12:08
Or, you know, something like that. You said cannabis. Yeah, I know I did. So it's probably not the Hollywood sign
12:12
Because there are easier things to jump to from the Hollywood sign
12:16
Maybe it's Amsterdam then. I'm going to say nothing else. And Frank's house
12:20
Maybe you're looking at the Amsterdam train station from the other side
12:24
You can see the Amsterdam sign. Or maybe you're at the airport. It's in Amsterdam. I've gone for it
12:30
Let's take a look. It was that sign outside that museum. It was
12:34
It was the sign. I mean, I didn't know specifically where it is, but that's a win, Josh. You're in Amsterdam, so you've got..
12:39
Yeah, I mean, there were some slight assistance. It's okay. That's just because I was so outraged at the prospect of you going..
12:44
My voice cracked. Oh, no, I'm very scared. Shoot me timbers. Okay, so overall that was three out of two I would say. I will admit rules were bent ever so slyly
12:56
So what we're gonna do now is we're gonna switch So I am the person that has to make the guesses, but it's the same map so we might have repeat locations
13:04
I said new words. You can do whatever it can link to my word But it just has to be something that hasn't previously been said. Understood. Okay So
13:13
Obviously, I guess there's every chance I can say something that you've done before right? Yeah, but that's okay
13:17
Don't worry about it. Um, I will say we advertising advertising ooh okay so immediately for advertising i would probably be drawn to time
13:30
square because adverts everywhere but then there is also the dubai mall is is on this map and i
13:37
think there's a lot of adverts in that location as well time square is way more famous for it so
13:42
i think i might just follow my boy josh and just go with conviction can i find time square to begin
13:47
with. Yes, there it is. Alright, I'm going to lock it in, Josh
13:52
So, you need to guess on your end as well and it'll show us. I'm surprised how far you
13:55
found it. Well, I don't know if I'm right yet. Let's take a look. Am I waiting for you
13:59
Yeah! I was too soft. I was like, where the hell is it? I can't remember where it is
14:05
Look at that. That was record time. That was a great clue. I mean, it's a very easy
14:09
location, I'd say. Well, I mean, we got three out of five with a lot of help, so
14:13
we'll see. I actually won a difficult round too, though, so I can throw you off. I wonder if you'll recognise every location
14:17
you're provided with. Yeah, I'm not dumb. Dumb test, I'm not dumb. So you can't say things
14:23
that are like geographic. So in your head, that means like everything, right? Like you wouldn't say
14:26
you couldn't say road. What's the cutoff point on that stuff? You need to sort of look at the round
14:30
and see what you think. See if it feels like it's bending the rules. But yeah, like if it was
14:34
leaning Tower of Pisa, I wouldn't say leaning. I wouldn't say White House
14:38
for the White House, but I might say president, you know? You just have to be kind of not direct
14:43
Okay. I have a word that I like, but I don't want this to be too easy for you. Okay
14:47
Oh, I'll just go for it. Roundabouts. Roundabout. Roundabout. Okay, so something..
14:54
Something circular. I'm just trying to think. So... I'm just... So I need to go through the locations, really
15:03
So they've got Vascon City, which maybe has, like, a roundabout in front of it, to be fair
15:07
They've got the... What is it? The Arc de Triomphe. That's... I think that might be on a roundabout
15:14
The Louvre might be near a roundabout. Hmm. But I don't know how literal you're being as well
15:19
What other locations are there? Can't think of any locations in Japan, but there probably is one
15:23
It's not going to be the Sydney Opera House. It's not going to be Christ the Redeemer
15:28
I don't think it's going to be the Las Vegas sign, because there ain't no roundabouts really around there
15:32
I don't think it'll be the White House. It's very different when you can know all the locations off by heart
15:38
Yeah, exactly. I'll do it in the blind. I have no idea what locations are on this map
15:42
and you're just like, yeah, it's not this, it's not this, it's not this. Yeah, but I'm still not getting to the right thing though
15:47
So you've got like a one in 14 chance, but I've got like a one in a million chance every time. Yeah, yeah
15:51
I've got the whole world at my foot. Well, you said you're not dumb though, so it shouldn't be a problem for you. I feel like I want to go with the Arc of Triumph
15:59
because I feel like that might be on a roundabout and I can't think of anywhere else to go
16:04
I hate this kind of game when you're on the other foot and you're the one that actually has to do the thinking. Not so fun now, is it, big man
16:08
It makes it so much harder, doesn't it? You have so much like cockiness when you're..
16:12
With conviction. Yeah, okay. I mean, it's, I've zoomed in on the arch
16:17
and there is a big fat roundabout around it. So I'm feeling better about it. Okay, I've locked it in
16:23
Oh, I got it, I got it. Look at that for a roundabout as well. It's crazy. That is an elaborate roundabout if ever I've seen one
16:28
I knew that it was kind of like in the middle of a road, but I didn't realize it to that extent. I was considering saying like winning
16:34
Oh, triumph. Yeah, I mean, that's a great clue, but no chance would I have got it
16:38
If it's going too well, maybe I'll start more abstract. Seems like you know locations off by heart quite easily
16:42
True, true. Okay. We'll go to the next one so far though two for two. That's pretty good
16:52
Okay, what is a good clue or this one how you feeling about this round at the moment perfectly fine
16:59
Okay, fair enough. Just thinking for your sake now. Yeah, um I just Test an eyes a little bit I could say no Hairpin Hairpin Oh my God I am not getting this I have no hope of getting this Hairpin
17:15
Testing my knowledge. Josh, we have very different knowledge, you and I
17:19
Hairpin? Yeah, this game was going too well. I hope I spiced that a little bit
17:23
Is it like a... Is it like a... Something to do with racing? Is there a type of fish named after hairpin
17:29
What would that be? This is difficult, because now I'm like... I don't think I know the reference that you're trying to make
17:35
So now... It's like shooting in the dark. Yeah, so I'm just like, well, what's it definitely not going to be
17:40
Because there's a better word he could have said. But, you know, you might have picked a tricky word anyway. There's plenty of better words I could have said everywhere
17:45
Oh, God. Can't even beat my score. So, you know, now when it's hard. Something's tempting me towards the Las Vegas sign, but I have no idea why
17:51
I mean, I did say something about racing, so it might be a repeat Monaco
17:55
But I don't know. I literally don't know where I'm getting that from. I might be completely wrong
17:59
I might just go for it, though, to see what happens. What else could there maybe be? There's Taj Mahal in this map as well
18:06
That was built for a fella's wife. She probably would have worn a hairpin at some point
18:10
But I reckon that's probably not where you go with that. I'm going to go with Monaco. Why not
18:15
Okay. I'm clicking. I've locked it in. Oh, my God. What is it
18:21
What has happened? The most famous turn of that circuit is the hairpin. So that was in my brain then
18:27
It's outside the Fairmont Hotel. Oh, my God. I still aced it
18:30
You still got it. It's impossible to beat. Oh my god. I'm happy with that
18:34
See how this next one goes. I might make it harder for you. I'm unstoppable, to be fair
18:40
Oh, there's many words that we could easily give you here. Okay
18:44
Flowerpot, anyone? I'm going to say... Toby. Toby? Hmm. Oh, I reckon I know it
18:55
I think I know it. I'm not even telling you. I'm not even saying anything. I'm just going to click on it
19:02
You have to find it as well. Have you found it? Sure. All right, I'm locked in my guess
19:08
Yeah! I know things. What do you know about that? So you did a Seven Wonders of the World video
19:14
and that's where Toby visited, right? Yeah, it was a double, because it was a Christian, so it's like, it works both ways
19:19
I'm happy with that. That's lovely, that, actually. That does work nicely. That was, like, my, like, slightly abstract
19:24
So I said religious, but that's easy for you. Do you know what? Keep the abstract clues coming, because I'm just knocking them out of the park every time
19:29
All right, all right. I'm getting all confident now. Let's see. I'm going to say like building in the background
19:37
Let's try and the abstract for you then. Yep. Okay, I'm ready for it
19:46
No abstract, can you go? Take as long as you need, Josh. You've got four minutes, 20 seconds
19:50
I've got a couple of words that I could do. It's just you have to associate what I'm saying with what I'm doing
19:54
I'll try it early and we'll see if we get there. You don't get there, I'll get to say anything else. Okay. I'm going to say Christmas
20:00
Christmas. hmm right christmas christmas so so immediately nothing's coming to my head i'm trying to think like
20:13
i don't think sydney opera house has anything to do with christmas
20:17
tajmal no vatican no i mean when i think of christmas and maps i would be like iceland finland those kind of things maybe somewhere in
20:26
the uk but obviously he's going abstract isn't he so what's that gonna mean Las Vegas sign, Christmas, nah. New York, that's famous in Christmas films, but we've already had
20:36
Times Square, and I don't think there's another New York one. We've got Statue of Liberty
20:42
Ooh, and Statue of Liberty was a present from France. Maybe that's what you're going with
20:47
That's pretty abstract though, but I don't hate it. That's the best thing I've got at the moment
20:54
but I'll just try and think through the other stuff. So like the White House, no
20:59
We've got Key West at the bottom of the USA, but I can't see that being anything
21:02
Will I give you a second word? You can give me the second word if you think I need it. Just see, it could help you
21:06
It could throw you off. Okay. I will say hurry. Hurry. So if he's wanting to give me the second word
21:12
that feels like it's probably not Statue of Liberty. Where are they in a hurry? Las Vegas
21:18
The Coliseum. Vatican. Oh, Josh, I'm worried on this one. oh rush russia part of me is suddenly going towards saint basil's cathedral in moscow um
21:33
because of russia rushing hurry but then i don't know the christmas i mean it's quite christmasy
21:37
looking is saint basil's cathedral is that a better answer than statue of liberty which is
21:43
what i'm currently going for i feel like it maybe is but i think i still could be so far away from
21:47
what you're actually going for saint basil what's that got to do with christmas maybe you don't know
21:51
the name of it though as well so maybe it just looked christmasy too i'm going moscow uh yeah
21:57
i'm locking that in i feel like i'm wrong oh i got it you got it so what was i on the right track
22:01
then with russia and rushing yeah well hurry is obviously russia i think christmas because
22:05
they're like little christmas ball balls on top ah yeah yeah yeah i said it just looks christmasy
22:10
doesn't it as a building yeah i actually really like the way you got saturday liberty so i'll let you like feed that out but i was like i don't get it wrong because i actually really liked your
22:17

22:20
better score but it's all thanks to your clues yeah i feel like you've researched this map enough
22:24

22:29
