Man In Box

If you were following my blog 30 days ago, you may remember this story....

Journalist Tim Shaw was locked in a metal box in an undisclosed location 30 days ago. All he knows is that he's somewhere in the United Kingdom and it's somewhere he has been before. The box, only 3 feet high, 4.5 feet wide and 8 feet long, contains only his mattress and a limited number of items he has received during his 30 days in captivity.

He's had contact with the outside world only once a day, when a silent source brings him a delivery of food and water through a tiny hatch in the box. The entire 30 days and 29 nights has been filmed and broadcast online. For the past 30 days, I've checked in on him periodically and seen high points and really, really, really low points.

Throughout Tim Shaw's stay inside the isolation box, viewers have been given the opportunity to guess his whereabouts.... If someone had correctly guessed where he is, Mr. Shaw would have been released (No one has guessed correctly yet - Mr. Shaw is still in the box).

Well, you still have 15 hours to guess his location, and win
approximately $47,000 (30,000 pounds).... It's been 30 days, and tomorrow at 6:00 a.m. PST (9:00 a.m. EST), Mr. Shaw will be given sweet freedom. He'll see sunlight and his wife and kids for the first time in 30 days and 30 nights.


You can get more information on Mr. Shaw, watch the archive videos, guess his location, and see his last 15 hours in the box at the following site. Just click the logo to visit....:
