Man gets Uber Eats delivered to longest maze in UK to see if the delivery driver can successfully locate him
Uber Eats may be a popular choice for takeaways, but many people don’t realise that Uber takes a hefty cut of the drivers' earnings, leaving them with quite shocking pay cuts.
YouTuber Zac Alsop wanted to reward them for their efforts - if they completed a strange challenge.
The last and hardest challenge of them all was the UK's longest maze.
Stretching a total of 2.1 miles (3.4 km), this thick-hedged puzzle in Noah's Ark Zoo, Somerset was his perfect way to surprise Uber Eats drivers with a special delivery.

Alsop did this as part of a series, giving Uber drivers a delivery to remember by 'ordering food to a list of increasingly weird and random locations and when they get there, they'll be met with a healthy tip.'
Alsop ordered the food at the maze entrance, then headed to the centre to wait on a wooden structure.
Sitting slap-bang in the centre, Alsop patiently awaited his delivery.
Meanwhile, his crew were outside the maze ready to give Uber driver, Rodrigo a GoPro, who then made his way into the maze to deliver the food - no questions asked.
Unfortunately, after a good while of effort, Rodrigo found himself back at the entrance and had to start all over again.
To help him navigate the maze, there were certain checkpoints with animal-related questions on them.
If answered correctly, Rodrigo would be led down a correct path of the maze.
Luckily, Rodrigo was an animal expert for the most part up until question 9 where he got a little stuck and ended up making some wrong turns.
But after a little help from Alsop, Rodrigo eventually made his way to the centre to deliver a very likely cold pizza at this point.
Nevertheless, dedicated and a-maze-ing Rodrigo completed the maze in 27 minutes and 56 seconds exactly, according to the YouTuber
'My friend, thank you so much,' Alsop said upon his arrival, handing him a much-deserved reward after all that running. 'That was record timing.'
People have swarmed the YouTube comments to praise the dedication of delivery drivers.
'damn the dedication these drivers have to deliver food, respect,' one user commented.
'As a delivery person myself I would genuinely be ecstatic to do this,' another added.
'These delivery drivers look so happy to do this, they definitely deserved this,' wrote another viewer.
