Let’s play a game: You're a computer programmer who saved up enough money to hypothetically fly around the world. What do you do?If you're like Matt Harding, you probably recorded yourself dancing like an idiot. Unlike Matt Harding, you probably aren't being paid to do so.See, the story begins with him quitting his job as a game programmer after inspiring the Destroy All Humans! games (he actually gets a creative credit in the game). After doing so, he went traveling with some of his friends, where he made the first video for 'shits and giggles'. It quickly went viral and, at the behest of Stride gum, he made a second video visiting even more countries. Note that Stride gum did not sponsor the video or expect any sort of endorsement from Matt; they simply liked the videos and gave him money to do more with no strings or expectations attached. After being an even bigger hit than the first one, Matt went on to making a third one which went Beyond the Impossible and got more views than the previous two videos combined.He is making a fourth, this time solely in South Africa and for the World Cup.All his videos can be viewed here.
"Where the hell is Matt?" provides examples of:
