THE LAST MC'DONALDS BURGER SOLD IN ICELAND

McDonalds staff who pretend they don't understand you unless you insert the 'Mc' before the item you are ordering.....It's has to be a McChicken Burger, just a Chicken Burger get blank looks. Well I'll have a McStraw and jam it in your McEyes you FUKCKING McTosser!~Billy Connolly

The Global Finnancial crisis of 2008 really did hit Iceland hard. It sent the country broke, banks close and riots happening.  The most shocking factor that ever happened was MC'DONALDS CLOSED ITS DOORS IN 2009.

On the last day of McDonalds trading in Iceland, Hjörtur Smárason brought a Cheeseburger and Small fries from the resturant chain. He thought it was too precious to eat, so he kept it in a box in his garage.

After a couple of years he gave it to the national museum in Reykjavik. A year later  the museum decided it's too stupid to put food products on display!

Years later the last Cheeseburger in Iceland made its way to Bus Hostel in Reykjavik. Its kept in a glass tank with a webcam pointing to it 24/7. People can now go online anywhere in the world and watch the last ever Cheeseburger and fries NOT GO ROTTEN!

Also while your in Reykavik, if your on a budget, dorm beds at Bus Hostel go for under £20. Imagine having your breakfast right next to this NON ROTTING BURGER!

I'm a British Metalhead (Born in Sydney) who enjoys the way of overlanding.


 I have been travelling solo since April 2010 when I spent 6 weeks in North America. Since then I have visited 84 nations and 100+ cities.

I have lived in Sydney, New York, Birmingham, Melbourne, London and Stockholm!

I have visited Parliament Haus in Port Moresby , spent a week on the Trans Siberian Railway,  visited Commonwealth War Graves around the world, met Joanna Lumley in Melbourne, swapped a European phrasebook for a Jackie Collins novel in Bangkok and I travelled 15,000km from Vladivostok to London without flying
