So IF what Grandpa Lou said was true and he had to walk 15 miles

>>94633764
There was a valley between his home and the school.

>>94633764
He lived in a trailer which parked downhill from the school in the morning, and uphill from it in the evening.

>>94633872
Or the hill was between his home and school

>>94633971
so...he lived at the bottom of 15 mile tall hill?

Hoooollly shiiiit!

Keep in mind he was a child when the memory was made, so it could be exaggerated in his mind which would allow him to pass a polygraph.

>>94634067
Was it 15 miles of hill or 15 miles and a hill?

At 6:09, he theorizes that Grandpa Lou used to live smack-dab in the middle of a crater, 30 miles in diameter

>>94634423
well you have to remember people were tougher in those days

>>94634399
._. This is a problem for me in real life, too.

>>94634630
its ok anon I too have made the same blunder many times.

>>94633872
makes sense, he wouldn't mention getting to go down hill both ways as well since it would negate his struggle

>>94634535
lol nice

>>94634067
not only that, the hill was too steep to walk straight up, so he had to walk up a very rickety staircase to get to the top just to take another rickety staircase to get back down
why he didn't just go around the hill, nobody knows, but by gum he did it!

This shit gave me serious frustration as a kid trying to figure it out. The only thing I could conceptualize was a hillside with crossing slopes kind of like this before eventually realizing it was logistically impossible and accepting it as a joke.
