YouTuber Thogden is set to take on "The Impossible Challenge" over the next month in Qatar - as he bids to become the first person ever to attend every single game at a World Cup tournament.
The showpiece event, which is due to kick off on Sunday when Qatar meet Ecuador at the Al Bayt Stadium, is set to play host to 64 games across the next four weeks as 32 nations bid to create history in the Middle East.
But for Thogden - who is a member of the England Supporters Association alongside his dad (Thogdad) and a regular attendee at England games both home and away - a pre-tournament idea has now hatched into his own personal attempt to make history.
Along with Crypto.com, Thogden will be attempting to make the most of a tournament which will see all games played within close proximity of each other. And the Bolton fan, who has over one million subscribers on his YouTube channel, will be documenting the wild journey alongside COPA90.
Speaking just 24 hours before his flight to Qatar, Thogden explains "The Impossible Challenge" to Mirror Football - and he reveals that even though he was approached to take on the seismic challenge, he had already mulled over the possibility of undertaking a similar challenge.
"We had the idea of doing a challenge because we saw the stadiums were so close together," Thogden said. "It's something that's never been done before and it's an amazing challenge - it's right up my street and fits with the content I make on my channel.
"My job on YouTube is to go to games - but what people don't see is that I'm running around stadiums trying to get home or to my hotel so I can get my laptop up and start editing to get the video out as soon as possible. This is something similar - but to the extreme!"
Thogden and his father attended games at the 2018 World Cup in Russia and the Euros last summer and had planned to take in England's games during the tournament. But Thogden's bid to set a world record means he'll be forced to leave his dad behind at certain matches in order to stay on track.
Watching games alongside his father has become a hallmark of Thogden's content, and he admits that he decided to move into vlogging football matches with his dad to try and share some of the behind-the-scenes antics that often get forgotten about away from the pitch.
He adds: "Some people don't understand the amount of crazy stuff that goes on during a Bolton away game that is never seen again. You only get the highlights; you don't get what goes on during the time between the turnstiles."
While he admits he never had any specific aims or targets after deciding to move into vlogging full-time, he's been bowled over by the success of the channel.
"I never thought YouTube could be a job, I just did it as a hobby. As a kid, I'd watch people like KSI, The Sidemen, TwoSync, Spencer FC - they created something. I just did it because I wanted to see what people thought I could do. Once it started to build up some momentum, we decided to carry it on."
While YouTube has given him the opportunity to fulfil lifelong dreams of interviewing and presenting in relation to his beloved Bolton Wanderers and England, his latest project represents his toughest challenge to date.
Achieving such a feat would have been impossible in previous tournaments. But the eight stadiums which are due to host games in Qatar are all relatively close together.
He added: "I've never done anything like it. We went out to Russia in 2018 when we were told not to, that was pretty intense. I went to the Belgrade derby on my own, too - that wasn't easy. But this is like nothing else. Because I have to remember the creative side as well as getting everywhere I need to be, the mental slash physical battle is going to be the biggest challenge I've ever done."
While the YouTuber has an intricate plan to attend every game, he admits there are numerous obstacles to contend with - especially as he isn't the most organised person.
"We've got a plan - it's going to be very touch and go! I'm never usually on time for things, but when it comes to football, I'm usually there pretty early. But this is different; I'm not going to be at the matches early. I'll be at the first game pretty early, but after that we'll be legging it around. We start off with one game on day one, so that's fine. But as early as day two we've then got four games in one day. England vs Iran is the first match of the day, and we're probably going to have to leave at almost half-time to run off to the second match, which is going to be gutting!
"The funny thing is, we have no idea what the Metro system is going to be like, which is mostly what we're going to be taking. We're going to be really careful and give ourselves extra time the first few days. So, as much as we've got a plan written down, you can only really find out what it's like when you're out there."
Thogden is determined to achieve his goal and take in all 64 games, but he believes he won't be the only person attempting to take in every big moment of the tournament. So what happens if he is caught short during the hectic fixture schedule in the opening days of the event?
"If we miss one, we can still break a record with 63 games. I don't know if that's a World Record, but it must be! I think the record is actually 31. [But] I've got a feeling a lot of people are going to be doing the same challenge as us; maybe not other creators, but I think there'll be fans who will be up for going to every single match. That's my biggest worry - if someone beats me, then I want to see all the evidence!"
There are already plans fleshed out for when the fixtures start to dry up. There are plans for daily content throughout the tournament, which will centre around "The Impossible Challenge", but there will also be different content where viewers can win prizes during the 28 day stretch, particularly as the final draws closer.
"The content from it is going to be top of the range. It's gonna be 60 seconds a day, in portrait mode, trying to get the best shots. We'll be constantly fighting a battle between the creative side and getting from A to B on time, so it's going to be a real challenge.
"I'm hoping to enjoy more than just 45 minutes of a game a day, but then that becomes the story: do we wait for England to score the goal against Iran if it's 0-0 in the 60th minute and risk missing out on doing all 64 games or do we leave and keep the challenge alive? You're fighting your passion over completing the challenge, so you've got to weight up those decisions in the stadium.
"But I want a World Record; I want to be the first fan who'd be able to say 'I've been to every single game at a World Cup', so I'm going to give it everything."
Thogden will be taking on The Impossible Challenge in partnership with Crypto.com and COPA90 where he attempts to attend every game at the FIFA World Cup 2022 - follow his progress across COPA90 channels.
