I call this DNS art :) Try running this from a cmd prompt:

tracert -h 99 216.81.59.173

You'll get something like this:

    Working for me (4th April 2013) - started on my 13th hop rather than the 14th hop for you  (routing all the way from Australia is, I guess, slightly closer to wherever this cool setup was done).Got here courtesy of Raymond Chen's blog
