Growing up in Aldridge, West Midlands, Davies held a number of jobs before becoming successful on YouTube, including as a fishmonger, van driver, and bartender.

[6] In 2021, Davies launched the Geo Detective series, where he attempts to identify the location of photographs sent in by viewers,[11] which led to a 2024 collaboration with Fujifilm for the MyFujifilm Memories Recreated Campaign.

The pair managed to complete the crossing, but a GPS battery malfunction on day three caused them to temporarily leave the line, making it non-continuous.

[21] He later noted that one of his main motivations for attempting it once more was due to competition, notably from Adam and Archie Fieldhouse, fellow straight-line adventurers who had successfully crossed Scotland, a feat that Davies was unable to do.

[25][26] In August 2022, Davies and a small support crew including Russ Cook dribbled a football across the width of Britain along Hadrian's Wall Path in a continuous run.

[30] In his series How Not to Travel, Davies and Greg embark on long journeys with little planning and the intent of using as many methods of transport as possible, such as hitchhiking, cycling, kayaking, or scootering.
