Some people take a walk to clear their heads. James Norbury? He’s walking 500 km across New Zealand to literally destroy the One Ring. Dressed like a hobbit (because commitment), he and his friend Alex Felstead started their trek at Hobbiton, making their way toward Mount Ngāuruhoe—aka the real-life Mount Doom.
Along the way, they’ve battled electric fences, overgrown trails, and, plot twist, James briefly lost the Ring. Thankfully, it was found, so the quest continues. He’s documenting it all on Instagram, proving that Frodo had it way easier with a wizard, a dwarf, and a few sword-wielding friends.
