​​​@@RichFresco But, like... he knows where to look. Every time. Processing and memorizing an image in .1 seconds is actually relatively easy if you know what you're looking for. Actually knowing what to look for, in the context of Geoguessr, is seemingly impossible to a non-professional, given that a million different tiny details could be vital. It's sorta like how a Grand Master's ability to recite all the moves of the game they're currently playing up until the present isn't really _that_ impressive compared to the fact that they're basically immune to blunders.

That's how he explains it in retrospect, but I don't think his brain is actually processing it like that, not anymore. On the Dutch photos I knew they were my home country INSTANTLY, because of more than a hundred different details. But I'm not ACTIVELY looking at any of those details, it's an almost subconscious reflex. I suspect he has trained that reflex for pretty much every country.

If he is for real, locating a place from seeing an image for a fraction of a second, he is by a huge order of magnitude one of the most brilliant people on the planet. Way to go rainbolt, you are monumentally impressive.

[@ArakkoaChronicles]

My brain legit didn't even register more than "green", "blue" or "car" at most of these 0.1 second pictures. Like, how is this even physically possible?

[@dontbescaredhomie3137]

Every time Netherlands came up, I beat him to it, and I instantly recognize any imagery with really good accuracy to be Netherlands. I:d say that England has pretty distinct architecture, Curaçao and a few more I'd be highly confident at similar speeds. I think it's very common that people instantly recognize their own country, but for 230+ countries is insane.

[@vex3091]

Well yes he is doing it in a fraction of a second, but you dont need to be brilliant, just hardworking and dedicated to the craft, still tho, rainbolt is for sure brilliant

It's funny because in a recent interview he said he feels he's probably top 25 or 30.

He would make the perfect detective with a single picture or image even if its for 0.1 second he would be able to track people's location and as we saw he puts very little time into it. If he were to actually put like 1 hour going over every single detail he would get a much much more precise location. Mad respect keep the good work up.

He did that actually, finding places by the photos.

He apparently gets asked to find locations for old childhood photos now.

[@chandlerdaugherty1947]

not necessarily unless there are signs, which anyone could look up. he's very proficient at differences between countries (signs, architecture, driving side, license plates) but within countries those are all the same, usually. notice in this video how often his guess is within the country but off the mark.

[@slimyboyit806]
