“The man’s legacy is built on the foundations of fraud; of a dog he had with him on that journey.

“He’d just sit in the comfy van, and then get out and run a bit when the dog got tired.

“Could never be me.”

Brennan said: “You did a really good job of never showing that dog in any of your videos.”

Taylor Acton added: “A dog running the length of Africa makes for a heck of a story too.

“Either way should be a good book.”
