Recorded as the world's longest pilgrimage - a five-decade journey - one of the most powerful and moving big-screen documentaries of 2009, The Cross: The Arthur Blessitt Story, will makes its East Coast premier March 24th at Orlando, Florida's Holy Land Experience, the interactive theme park that brings the sights, sounds, and truths of the Bible alive to visitors of all ages.
The feature-length film follows Arthur Blessitt, a one-time California hippie and full-time messenger of the gospel, from Christmas Day 1969 when he started out on foot from Hollywood, California carrying a twelve-foot cross, to the conclusion of his 38,102 mile journey 39 years later, on June 13, 2008 in Zanzibar off the coast of Tanzania. Blessitt's solitary pilgrimage took him through 315 countries and all seven continents, where he shared the message of God's love and mercy to individuals from all walks of life -- and a wide variety of religious traditions.

On the same night that The Cross premiers at Orlando's Holy Land Experience, the movie will also be premiering on the West Coast at Grauman's Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, where Blessitt began his pilgrimage back in 1969.

Quite a 'feet'-however there are no where near 315 countries in the world. There are 192 members of the UN which does not include the vatican. There are supposed to be about 203 sovereign states so where are the other 112?
Also one of the 7 continents is Antarctica which would have been a challenge.
