[0] In LineRider there is no destination, only the joy of sledding.&lt;p&gt;Re: &amp;quot;just to press one button and then be shown a YouTube video&amp;quot;: Instead of pressing &amp;quot;Next&amp;quot; at the end, press &amp;quot;Stop&amp;quot; and you can go back and edit the formula.&lt;p&gt;[0] - &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.linerider.com&amp;#x2F;&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;www.linerider.com&amp;#x2F;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;( Press the &amp;quot;Play&amp;quot; link on the right, it runs right in the browser, just like in the old days :)</text></comment>
