Geo Detective is back and we begin the year with a trio of fan photos; two warm ups, and a tougher one to finish off with. There wasn't a whole lot to go off in this waterside snap besides a blue boat. Will that boat hold the key? or will I be plunged once again into an endless map search?
For those new to the channel, Geo Detective is a series in which I (GeoWizard) attempt to pinpoint the exact location of a photo, be it a fan or something different, using my skills on google earth, google maps and my questionable googling skills. So far I've only failed once, but there's time yet...
Don't forget to subscribe: / @geowizard and please give the video a quick like if you enjoyed it! Cheers :)

For real! I live in Chicago and it didn't even register this was a possibility at first. Maybe because I'm literally surrounded by snow right now so seeing anything green is throwing me off. Overall, this is a perfect photo for GeoWizard. It's a very famous location, but taken from such a different angle that it doesn't register what the location is. His head blocking the ferris wheel definitely took away a big clue too

Bologna had roughly 100 towers in the 12th and 13th centuries. Nobody's sure exactly how many, or why they were there. They often had fortified gates, so they may have been places for rich people to hide while the fighting happened down at ground level. There are more than those two left, and some fortified gates.

Hey Tom! I don't know if you will see this, but I think a fun addition for these geodetective videos would be that in the beginning you try to guess the location like a NMPZ geoguessr round. In the end it would be interesting to see how far your initial guess was.

I believe@@samandmax42, this may have been due to not having a single powerful mayor/lord/whatever, perhaps like the Medicis, rich enough to fortify a city. More probable though, these ancient places were just too ramshackle. As such, it was more cost effective for each international trader to simply protect their own families and wealth. Plus, who doesn't love a big phallic status symbol?

Would make an excellent adventure that I've only just recently learned about.

Semi random fact, that amusement park was featured prominently in the move Divergent (which is set in Chicago). They were actually climbing on that ferris wheel, and the towers on the far right of the photo were the towers they played capture the flag in (I believe). I've actually been to Chicago once, but saw so little (mostly just the train station as I was passing through, plus a grocery store nearby), that I probably know more about Chicago from Divergent than being there.

The third one was well done -- both in terms of your searching, and in terms of how "Tim" framed the image! It really doesn't look like Chicago, and yet there's just enough to find it. The first one would have been more fun if the street post had blocked the name of the building.

Fun, I where in Bologna this weekend and looked on the same picture with all the towers and had the same reactions as you. And I also where on that hill in Verona some days just before Christmas.

4:08 he may literally be in that bus in that picture. If not literally, he was in a bus similar to that bus' position.

Honestly I’ve been to Chicago and that pier many times and when you first said it could be Chicago, I thought “absolutely not” lmao

I laughed my ass off when you started looking in Chicago, I thought there was absolutely no way. I can't believe his head is perfectly blocking the ferris wheel.

While Tim's didn't prove as hard as some you've done, I think it was an extremely well crafted photo for this purpose. Very clever obfuscation of a very recognizable place!

Hey Tom! Your incredible score playing the world map 10s NMPZ inspired me to attempt to beat it and I recently managed a score of 24,849! Thank you for giving me the motivation to become better and setting the bar high.

It's so funny that you said "Fleet Walk Shopping" sounds American, because as an American the first thing I thought was "Wow, that's a really British sounding name for a shopping center"
