- Today, Paul is calling from the River Thames in London, UK.
- To travel directly from Pyramid Lake (see yesterday's episode) to London (a distance of a distance of 5420 mi / 8720 km) in under 24 hrs would require that he travel at 225 mph or approximately Mach 0.3.
- Buuut assuming he doesn't have a flying yacht, to sail all the way from the coast of Southern California to London (a distance of closer to 9000 mi / 14500 km) he would need to average 375 mph.
- This beats the current water speed record by over 50 mph. Impressive!
