Phineas Fogg, the lead character in Jules Verne's book, "Around the World in 80 Days" thinks he has lost the bet when he arrives back in London. This is because although the trip took 81 days, crossing the international date line actually gave him one day back, allowing him to finish in just under the allotted time.
