Race itFive minutes on the clock, or race for the fewest pages. Free, no account.
Click the first link in the main text of almost any Wikipedia article, then the first link on the next page, and keep going: you usually end up at Philosophy. xkcd's "Extended Mind" comic made the quirk famous in 2011. In a race you can use any link, so you should get there much faster than the first-link walk.
Need a hint?
General articles pull toward Philosophy. Look for a broad field, like biology or science, and climb from the specific to the abstract.
