WHAT WAS THE PHOTO EDITTING APP/TOOL you were using? Nicely done. I was thinking that was a hooka, absolutely. I def wouldn’t have thought of the whole “RGB type lighting = Look for colors other than pink” as they looked like actual neon tubing to me.

A good example of IMINT (Image intelligence, gathering data from a photo). Extremely useful skill to have, and probably one of the most underlooked when it comes to posting on social media.. people obviously know about not sharing your name, address, phone number, etc. but typically ignore the countless photos they post on social media.. which a good portion of the time, with someone smart enough, provides a ton of valuable data on the person/where they are.. This is also a really good breakdown on the thought process while doing anything OSINT related, I subscribed.

Question. You mentioned that the person who wanted the location to be found is from Leeds, and that's what prompted you to look in that area.

From IT, to coding, I've been trying to see what field I'd like go to at 48. This might be it. When I was young, I always wanted to be a Detective. I went to school for graphic design when I got into reading comics. Jaded with the personal experiences I was having I dove into hip hop and eventually producing/engineering with no training or knowledge. Two years ago I found out why my life was so bouncy. (?) I have ADHD combined subtypes. This makes it very hard to choose and stick with things. I have since learned that my mind *should* do multiple things, with an area of more focus. (Apparently, you have to make a living? Lol) This seems so conducive to my kind of brain and abilities. Recently went to a new movie with my daughter (who also has ADHD cst, but still young.) and explained what was going to happen exactly. (She was stunned that the main character dies so early.) "Dad, you always come up with stuff *NOBODY* thinks of!" At the end, it happened exactly like I said and she slowly turned her head to me. (we're so theatrical!) "DID YOU SEE THIS ALREADY?!" 😑"Nope! I told you, poppa is smart!" Lol. I just pick up on patterns and things that render an image in my mind, or that seem off. Which might explain why I'm good with geo-spatial reasoning. This is exciting.

To me the wall lighting could just as easily be seen in a nightclub so next I searched "club hookah lounge uk" and found the same picture on the 4th page of results, not bad. But this is also with me still assuming its somewhere in the UK. Going in blind, I likely would've ran those searches for all 8 countries that played in the WC on 29 Nov. Also I checked the highlights and USA/Iran wore the kits seen on the TV screen, so knowing me I probably would've spent way too much time looking in the USA and Iran first lol.

this video was really cool, if i wanted to pursue this as a career what would the job title be? OSINT Specialist maybe?

Hey! Yeah OSINT specialist/analyst - also SOCMINT too (social media intelligence). Or just Intelligence Analyst :)

I know you did more, but for this case, all you had to do was find the right game, then look at the hookah, know it's that type of club, look though Google Maps photos (comparing), and locate it.

Hey ignore my handle name, but I really appreciate your videos. I am currently learning practical ethical hacking from TCM Sec, you can consider me as a total noob at this point. But I love the OSINT thing. Any advice for a newbie?

Handle is great! We are all many things! TCM is really nice! 👏🏼 advice for a newbie on OSINT: I guess I’ve covered a fair amount of it here on the channel but I’d recommend learning Maltego and Google Dorking. Two skills you’ll need for sure!

That was the one piece of info I got on the task. And remember, that was the postcode of the client, not the target. I made the assumption that the target might be in a rough proximity.
