Mariano and Dennis in Around the World in 80 Ways

Jules Verne told us how to go around the world in 80 days. Now two extreme adventurers show us every Tuesdays at 9 pm on History TV18 how to go Around The World In 80 Ways! Robert Mariano and Dennis Anderson attempt to circumnavigate the globe using every conceivable mode of transportation, it’s not the destination that counts: it’s the journey itself. The two must get themselves around the world in 80 different ways, from rickshaws and hovercrafts to hang gliders and barrels.

Packed with extreme escapades in India, Dubai, Namibia, Botswana, Zambia, Tanzania, Thailand, America Brazil and Peru their voyage takes them not just across the planet but also through time as they explore the history behind how people have travelled over the ages. Sometimes, these seasoned daredevils have to concoct and build their own means of transport, taking "off the beaten path" to a whole new level. Mariano, a four-time "Survivor" contestant. — NF
