In , the website WhatCulture delivered an even more obsessive calculation , arriving at a total of 33 years and days. However, this version suffers from some extreme overestimates, such as the supposition that since Connors is seen at one point to recite French poetry, he must have spent 12 years of his life in the time loop exclusively learning French.
Notably, there are numerous instances of actors crash-learning musical instruments for roles, such as Taron Egerton undergoing intensive piano training in preparation to play Elton John in the movie Rocketman. For Groundhog Day, even Bill Murray coached himself up on the piano just enough so that he could play the instrument in wide shots.
The expert-level ice carving displayed by Connors might take a bit longer, but even then a dedicated student could reach proficiency in months or years, rather than decades.

Around this time, people also remember the film of the same name starring Bill Murray as a cynical weatherman named Phil Connors — who becomes trapped in a time loop and is forced to keep living Feb.
In the movie itself, Phil was visiting Punxsutawney, Pa. Except as it turned out, the weatherman was not only stuck in Punxsutawney, but he was forced to relive Groundhog Day no matter what he did. This meant taking the same cold shower at that bed and breakfast, repeatedly running into Ned from high school, trying and failing to impress his producer Rita Andie MacDowell, and figuring out a way to finally end the blasted time loop once and for all. I've been stabbed, shot, burned, frozen, electrocuted," he tells Rita and one point, clarifying.
Ultimately, it's when Phil proves himself to be a decent human being instead of an egotistical jerk — winning over Rita's heart in the process — that he breaks the time loop and is able to move onto Feb.
Well a film blog has worked it out for you: 33 years and days. Amazingly, the torturous time equates to repeating the same day 12, times. Based off the theory that it takes 10, hours to become an expert at anything, this third stage covered the time needed for Phil to learn French poetry, ice sculpting and the piano. All in the name of impressing his producer Rita, played by Andie MacDowell.
