Funny you should mention this. In the UK we have a show on,presently, called "I'm a celeb get me out of her" It's based in Australia. Last night 2 'celebs' were given the challenge of finding the distance between different destinations on a huge world map, that was on the floor.
The pair of celebs, both from the UK, were asked the distance between Australia(the place they had just flown to) and the UK.
Using a piece of rope they then stuck there pointers on Canada... The presenters revealed after that it took them 20 minutes to get it right! The meek have certainly inherited the earth.
