Major props to this guy. What an amazing accomplishment. Badass in my opinion.

British man becomes first person to visit all 201 countries... WITHOUT using a plane
Graham Hughes, 33, used buses, taxis, trains and his own two feet to travel 160,000 miles in exactly 1,426 days - all on a shoestring of just $100 a week
Yesterday he trudged into Juba, the capital of South Sudan, to end the epic journey that began in his hometown of Liverpool on New Year's Day 2009
Spent four days 'in a leaky boat' to reach Cape Verde, was jailed for a week in Congo, and was 'saved from Muslim fundamentalists by a Filipino ladyboy'
His lowest point was when his sister, Nicole, died of cancer two years ago
He says: 'I think I wanted to show that the world is not some big, scary place, but in fact is full of people who want to help you'
