Ok, not just Jack Bauer. He is just the first tv and movie hero that springs to mind when thinking of this.

Almost every tv show these days has a chase scene where the star says something along the lines of "I am heading north east........." or "Get a team into position in the south west stair well".

I can understand if the person giving this information is looking at a global positioning device, cell phone with a fancy gadget built in or even a good old fashioned compass. Without a second thought, the character being given the order gesticulates at his minions to move into position. How the heck does he know what direction south west is after just coming out of a building?   

Do they look at the moon or sun without me noticing? 

Do you know the direction you are currently facing or are you like me and head through life without the slightest clue of your global position?

I'm heading nowhere.

coz hes Jack fkin Bauer.

err cos it says so on the script he learns maybe?

Good point.  In a similar way to James Bond, he can do everything .  

I don't understand.  Isn't he a real guy?   This is like 2003 when I learned Santa was a fake .   

Ok, my point is that surely this is humanly impossible to know your direction without electronic help.  I know sailors used star chats and the sun before electronics, but Bauer doesn't do that, lol   

its not humanly impossible. if you have a rough idea of the area you are in then you can work out which way is which quite easily.

For us rough and ready types we always know our bearings, its a second nature thing

If you know the time of day and you know where the sun is, you can have a fairly accurate guess

He might have got a watch with a built-in compass for xmas from his lovely daughter?

I'm just watching star trek voyager and can't understand why the borg gave 7of9 huge t*ts ???

she was borg??  I never looked above her tits tbh

dont know how you missed it

don't most cars in the US have a little indicator thingy on the rear-view mirror which says which displays the direction you're going in?

7of9 is my favorite alien. I also like Commander T'Pol from Enterprise, she is high up on my favorite alien list as well.

I wasn't aware that US cars had that Claire.  I wonder why we don't have a similar thing. Inspector Morse would have been better if he could give directions 24 style

I expect Jacks does.  It's got rocket launchers in the boot, I doubt they skimp on a compass

Santa is a fake??  :dontask:

gtfo and the tooth fairy was just my mum slipping a quid under my pillow lol mofos today.

Please tell me you aren't doubting the abosulte leg end that is Jack Bauer, if so then shame on you sir shame on you

Jack Bauer FTMFW YO 

No, not at all. If I ever have a son, I will probably call him JackBauer as his first name.  Although Morris is a close second as a 24 character.

Jack Bauer states a direction he is facing and the world moves to accomodate him.

This.

Sigh Bobba beat me too it.

P.S. It's not that hard to know the direction you are facing.

If you have a watch [analogue, with hands], you already have a rudimentary compass.

If you have Jack Bauer's daughter you don't give a toss which direction you're facing...

most cars with an overhead console have one. cars I've had with that include jeep cherokee, merc ml and I'm pretty sure 7 series bmw
