When Phileas Fogg brashly accepts a bet that he can travel around the world in a mere 80 days he not only risks his fortune but his life. Encountering one adventure after another and pursued by a determined policeman, Fogg’s inventiveness will be challenged to its limit. Phileas Fogg puts up half his fortune wagering that he can circumnavigate the earth in 80 days. ![]()
