  3. I think the man is love the sports very much. He walk more than 26,000 kilometers, he spends 20 month only in walking. But what's is the benefit of that. He hopes it will be a world record. This is not worth it. I Would not do something like this because i want to enjoy my life with not only walking. The people do such acts strange like that because to be famous or they want to be in Guinness or for money. I advice all the people to benefit of there time and do not make something crazy like that and spend your time in useful things.

  5. What I think about what Mr.Tom Denniss did is that it was a great thing. I did some other researches about Mr.Denniss, and I liked his journey after I saw some pictures and videos that his wife posted. I felt that he's a nice gentle man, because he donated to the charity. And about fame, getting famous is a good thing, especially when getting famous by doing great things. I liked his enthusiasm, courage and insistence. I think that the run was worth it, because a man that's retired got nothing to work for. So doing things like that will keep him fit and in shape in the side of exercising and fitness. Even in the other side, he's braking a record. And what I see is that what he's doing is positive positive positive. It is such a strange thing, when you hear that a man travelled over 26,000Km on foot. But I think what Mr.Denniss did was a great achievement. It was worth it.

  6. That is really crazy in a way that it is fantastic. I am pretty sure that this man had a long vacation from his job (if he has one). I want to know how to get long holiday like he did. However, I wouldn't do such things; because I don’t like traveling the hard way I just want to travel to get rest and release the stress not to add more while being in the jungle, if you know what I mean. Moreover I wonder if he used an airplane or a ship to travel between continents. Any way that's a good way to see and learn about the world. I think that Tom Denniss is a man who love to travel but from what I understood from the story he is a man who doesn't like to be in the crewed, he like to be with a smaller group of people. But that doesn't mean he didn't use his hoppy to be famous and that is definitely smart. And he deserves to be famous.

  7. I think the man have more fitness and he love sport very much. He has traveled more than 26,000 kilometers on foot, Crossing deserts and mountains over five continents. He spends more than 20 months in walking. But what’s is the benefit of that. He is an 52 years old and this is hard for old man to walk 26,000 kilometers. I think it is crazy to do like this because we have to enjoy the life not just walking. I think he do that to be a famous man and the money. I 'am sure no body in the word will do such think.

  8. I know that its a little bit complicated for somebody to believe this, but this man Tom Dennis a 52 years old had a great journey because in my opinion, this man wants to have a lifetime adventure and journey.He has travelled more than 26,000 kilometres on foot, crossing deserts and mountains over five continents. It took him 20 months to cross all around the five continents or should i say all around the world, also he broke the world record for smashing the current circumnavigation on foot mark set by Dane Jesper Olsen in 2005 by 40 days. He made a wonderful job by crossing the world.
