I walked across France dressed as a giraffe

ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ OS

Available for over a year

A British man has just completed walking 1000km across France dressed as a giraffe. Seb Mayer - who is an English puppeteer - attracted thousands of followers on his TikTok page Où est la Girafe? - which means "Where is the giraffe?" Those followers have been watching his 10-week journey from Marseille to Paris. He is walking the route of the very first giraffe in France - which arrived in the country 200 years ago. Seb is now back home in London and he spoke to OS's James Reynolds about his experience. (Photo shows: English puppeteer Seb Mayer in his giraffe costume. Credit: Seb Mayer)
