I thought it was actually driving a REAL desert bus from Tucson to the end of the country, with exploding fuselage of the refuel vehicle and all!
Turns out though it was just an actual playthrough of a video game. Which took me 4 clicks on the WebCam and a YouTube search of "Desert Bus" to figure out....
As someone else pointed out, it's not that this is the first game marathon--it's that we're essentially cruel, heartless beings, and we love to inflict torture on each other. What really makes this tick is that these poor, unfortunate souls have to continue this exercise in Sisyphean futility according to the amount collected, giving us vicious bastards a good, solid reason to donate.
At least they're doing something they don't want do to.
I've seen a guy on the local news a few years back claiming he was going to ride a roller coaster continuously until he raised a certain amount of money. Wow, big sacrifice. Take a week off from work to ride your favorite ride for charity. I'd like to take page from this guy's book to raise money for charity. Find something I love doing then and do it nonstop until people donated enough to make me stop.
I might donate some money to these guys. But only if I can get the proper documentation so I claim it on my taxes. I'm not charitable enough to give twice.
