Etienne Naude and Angel Sierra created this Earth sandwich on January 20, 2020
at Bucklands Beach in New Zealand and Ronda, Spain. The two spots matched as
nearly exact antipodes - points on the Earth's surface directly opposite each other
through the planet's core. With about 12,700 kilometers of planetary crust, oceans, and
mantle between them, the two slices successfully turned the Earth into a giant sandwich.

Death Valley, California
When a friend and I camped out there in February one year, my car broke down on this road.
We had to leave it at a garage in Furness Creek and my wife, who was visiting a friend in
Santa Barbara, borrowed her brother's truck and drove out to the Furness Creek campsite
in the middle of the night to pick us up.
She said that, all she thought about the whole time she was driving out there, was
that episode of the Twilight Zone about the hitchhiker. "Going my way?"
Had to take a bus back to Death Valley a week later to pick up the car.
This is Gaztelugatxe, a famous islet located on the coast of the Bay of Biscay in the
Basque Country of Spain. The site features a narrow, winding stone bridge with
241 steps that connects the mainland to a hermitage dedicated to John the Baptist
atop the island. Gaztelugatxe served as a filming location for "Dragonstone" in
the television series Game of Thrones.
