This man and his dog spent seven years walking around the world
Very few people attempt to walk around the entire world, and even fewer actually manage to complete the journey.
On May 21, 2022 Tom Turcich, from New Jersey, became the 10th person on record to achieve this remarkable feat, while his four-legged companion Savannah was the first dog to do so.
The pair were greeted with a huge homecoming celebration attended by many of Turcich’s friends and family, along with well wishers.
