After 14½ Years, KurtJMac Reaches Minecraft's Far Lands in Live Sub-A-Thon

Walking in Minecraft Beta 1.7.3 with no cheats, the streamer turned his long-running series into a fundraiser topping $500,000.

Overview

  • He began the Far Lands or Bust trek in March 2011, committing to travel on foot in the legacy game version without mods, teleports, or cheats.
  • The journey spanned roughly 12.5 million in-game blocks, commonly described as about 12,500 km, to reach the patched-out terrain anomaly.
  • He arrived during Day 69 of a 2025 sub-a-thon supporting UNRWA, with the landmark appearing around 3:43:30 into the stream.
  • Community donations across the series surpassed $500,000 for charity through recurring livestreams on Twitch and YouTube.
  • The arrival revealed the Far Lands’ signature floating landmasses as he celebrated with viewers and his in-game companion, Wolfie.
