This week’s question: British army veteran Karl Bushby is nearing the end of his record-breaking 36,000-mile, 28-year walk across four continents—a trek that was slowed by, among other things, being mistaken for a spy in Russia and falling down a cliff in Alaska. If Hollywood were to make a movie about Bushby’s epic hike, what should it be titled?
