Mapping Google!

Saw this post in my friend's fb wall:

Get Directions in Google Map w Japan as Start Point n United States as End point. Once you click Get Directions, Read point no. 27. LMAO

And, being curious as usual, I decidedto look up Google Map to find out what it's about.  And gues what??   Direction no. 27 reads:

 

Kayak across the Pacific Ocean 6,243km

 

Oh-Em-Gee!  Imagine if I have to do that... I'd die!  Even before I could find a kayak!

 

So, naturally, I decided to try out different places to see what else Mr G could give.  Only one of the many attempts returned interesting result:

 
Japan - China
43. Jet ski across the Pacific Ocean 782 km.
 
 

Funny thing, though, Malaysia is only connected to Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam and countries in this region.  Other searches yielded:  We cannot calculate the distance between Malaysia and .....

But that's not too bad I guess, considering they cannot find directions for most countries (including the UK) to anywhere else!  Not driving that is.  Nor kayaking or jet-skiing.

 
Which makes me wonder -- would they accept SWIMMING?
