Wiki game

So I've invented a type of game using Wikipedia. You know how words in articles are hyperlinks to other entries? I'm thinking that there must be a way to get from one topic to another, but while only using those hyperlinks. For example, is it possible to get to the article about dolphins by typing it in, and then using only clicks, getting to something like Harry Belafonte? There's the challenge, dolphins



to Harry Belafonte.



If anyone can do it, let me know!


EDIT: It is possible to do, I have done it. I am invincible!!!

Not sure if it's cheating or not, but it's definitely easier to go from belafonte to dolphin, than it was to go the other way.
