@Harry Chown I think "more money than sense" really applies to the governments more so than the people in the case of a lot of extravagant development projects in non-democratic contexts. The people are poor, and the government spends all their ill-gotten money on ambitious vanity projects that may or may not help the people, but will make the leaders look good on the international stage.

G'day Tom, I live in Perth but am from Collie. So i'm super stoked you were able to find it on the map, it is a relatively small place. I knew it straight away and i got that nostolgic feeling so for that i thank you. I used to go to Collie Primary School, however before going into highschool, my family moved up to Perth. The location is about two minutes away from my grandparents house, both of them actually went to Collie Senior Highschool. I'm sure they would love to see your reaction and you finding this place. And i'll make sure to ask them what it was like there, although were talking upwards of 60 years ago. A lot has changed since then and the town has changed a lot too. Collie is an incredible place and definitely one to check out if you ever find yourself in WA. As always, amazing video, well done and keep up the good work!

I grew up in Collie from 2000 to 2009 and went to that exact High School. It was alright, pretty lower income compared to most of the places on the far west coast. Growing up we only had one fast food restaurant (Chicken Treat), and we only got McDonalds on the year I left. Most of the rich kids took an hour long bus ride every day to a better High School in Bunbury. If you visit there I recommend visiting "Black Diamond", an old mining pit they filled with water. They ruined it in the last decade by removing the cliffs that you could jump off, but Im sure its still fine.

As a German who lived in Canarvon for months my Irish mates and me had tears in our eyes when a hundred miles South of Geraldton we started to see some rolling lush green hills. Never knew how much I missed green scenery while living in the desert but just seeing forests and green hills made me seriously homesick for a day.

I'm not surprised you got a perfect score. Other Geoguessr players may be better at remembering every bollard, road sign, license plate, Google camera generation or roof rack tape... But this map requires that you spot all those tiny details that you just can't put your finger on, but they subconsciously tell you where you should look. And that is where you shine! You're an exceptional 'natural' Geoguessr player. In another video you said that other Geoguessr players like GeoPeter were probably much better at this satellite view game than you are, but I highly doubt it.

@@crazywarriorscatfan9061 it doesnt really matter the size of the village, all that matters is if there is a distinct feature like a lake or a shoreline. It is very easy to quickly search the map for distinctive shapes. Its much easier than having a street name even, because its hard to find a street even if you know the city or country. Finding a lake is fairly easy as long as you have some basic geography knowledge to know roughly where the place could be like "ok this looks like mediterranean" or "ok this is tropical" that is all you really need, then maybe the cars driving on a side of the road knowledge, then finding the lake or shoreline is pretty simple for example in this video tom searches the whole of africa for a lake in just a few minutes, then moves on.

@GeoWizard the dots you were getting is the rainViewer extension/plug/feature. Regarding the lagging or freezing up map, I'm pretty sure I can hear your laptop fans whirling in the background so it's probably your CPU that's being overwhelmed (by whatever the plugins you're using are doing). I can't recommend much while not knowing your setup but definitely check your CPU usage, recording itself would take up a lot so it could add up and cause overheating and so performance issues.

That was as always fun to follow, always amazing how quickly you put a main line together where to search. But they are making some serious scars into the earth there in Australia 😳! On the other hand I was long not aware how extensive they digg up the earh in the middle of Germany just a few hundert miles away from my home here in Switzerland, like near Elsdorf.

Great vid, I'd watch more of this map. Tip: For that last one where you were thinking Australia or USA... that town had WAYY too many roundabouts to be USA.

2 things I picked up which could help you in the future 1 - Look at the angled parking (as seen in the Australian picture) - That will be like you drive in from your travel of direction. You wouldn't do a hard turn. So that can help you determine left/right hand drive too 2 - Particularly with Australia. If you see an aussie rules pitch. Dont even bother looking north/east of Canberra. There's something called the Barrassi line. north/east of that line (So qld and most of nsw) you'd see rugby fields. Though. There might be cricket pitches. But they'd be smaller. south/west of Canberra you'd get aussie rules pitches. I was going no no no no. when you were looking north as it wouldn't have been there. Having said that, I didn't think it looked like WA. I was thinking Eastern Victoria in the great dividing range (though, the soil probably wouldn't have been as red as it is in the picture)

Instantly knew round 5, its Collie! Camped many times at that reservoir (wellington dam) and mountianbiked all around there. Beautiful country! Edit: Collie is one of the cooler and wetter towns in WA. Town itself is fine, could find worse could find better.
