Video of the day: American road trip

Always wanted to go on a road trip across the USA but never had the time? Well, here's the next best thing!

This amazing video captures a 12,225 mile drive across the entire country in just five minutes.

Traveller Brian De Frees chronicled every step of the way in photos taken by his Canon 60D every five seconds.

Beginning in upstate New York, he first drove north towards Seattle, Washington before heading down to California and coming back via Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama, back to New York state.
