Where's Wally? celebrates 25th birthday The puzzle pictures have been printed in 30 languages and sold in 38 different countries, including under the alias of "Where's Waldo" in the United States. He is known various as Wali in Wales, Charlie in France, Valda in the Czech Republic, Vallu in Finland , Holger in Denmark, Valli in Iceland, Walter in Germany, Hugo in Sweden and Willy in Norway. His most famous pictures include scenes in Ancient Rome, Egypt, the Stone Age and in Outer Space, as well as his adventures in the modern day. Where's Wally? is now among the top 25 public figures on Facebook, with four million fans. His durability is even more remarkable when one considers the fact Wally originated as an afterthought, with artist Martin Hanford popping him in to one of his scenes thinking he might be fun to find. The current Guinness World Record for the most "Wallys" in one place is 3,872, achieved at the Street Performance World Championships in Dublin on 19 June 2011.
