I get it. It's a shared ordeal. Makes it easier than doing it on your own.

Ty for a wonderful way to look at this cold.

Buffalo sounds terrible lol

Oh hells, I grew up 25 mins from buff! Lockport. Cold, brisk, frozen nostrils, wet hair breaking, snow plowed into 4ft snowy curbs, halloween costumes stretched to their elastic limit over winter coats, digging tunnels in the snowy backyard, 5ft sledding hills at most driveways. In WNY, below freezing is just sweater weather. Took my driving test in a foot of snow, easypeasy! whereas few here in MA seem to know how to handle an inch of snow on roads without freaking out. Drives me crazy every winter!

Lol meth head

Shackleton had Frank Hurley, one of the worlds premiere photographers with him. Last photo sets in Elephand Island are of much lesser quality, as Hurley had to abandon his main cameras and kept only pocket size Kodak. He thou salvaged 120 glass negatives and 2 rolls of film.

as for any norwegian thinking of going arctic , there is the samic people in the north that has perfected everything regarding life in the arctic for at least 2000 years , all you have to do is ask them , and they will happily teach you

Amundsen was the GOAT and has not been given enough credit especially on UKposts

I agree. Overall a very strange and stripped back documentary that leaves out vital parts of the Antarctic exploration history.

Wow.

Very interesting

That is no doubt history that can not be "one upped " . Thank you for sharing ! Peace !!!

Do you have some records on that expedition ? It would be great to make a document like the one here on this expedition.

Look at the content on tv now.if it aint about the kardashians harrisses n it aint like a tiktok ppl aint watching it.

How does one arrange a trip to that part of the world. I'm not rich but I would love to see that with my own eyes before it is lost to the elements.

What’s the ship? What’s the name

oh he did not.

@@jefferystutsman6419 That's right. Scott's final and fateful voyage was on Terra Nova. He wanted Discovery but it was already out on charter to The Hudson Bay Company.

They did it for money dude…. Did you not listen it was sealing and whaling that put everyone there first.

I don't like they idea that they had to work to death then eat dogs. This was an expedition of choice, the English had a problem with using dogs with good reason, it is heartless and barbaric. Heroes I think not.

Go Woke yourself

Amundson is likened to a man who hears you writing a song. Goes home and uses your work to do his song. "Worrk smarter?" Dont you mean cheat. A real class act

He out did Scott.Don't be mad.

Yes it is. The Aurora Australis are so huge and bright . and they are also pretty common in Mcmurdo. About 6 to 9 days in Winter. I have also seen the Northern lights a few times in Wisconsin although I think they only get that far south about every other year. I've missed about 9 opportunity to see them here and just by luck seen them about 4 times only on 1 of those did the Northern lights come close in terms of brilliance.

Yes. I'm not questioning Shackletons leadership leadership ability, and mad respect for him. But without Worsley they ain't getting off the ice. His inate sense of direction is mind boggling.

I often wondered why furs were worn with the fur outside. One of the main reasons was that any condensation on the fur would turn to ice crystals, which would be simply brushed off in the morning.

@@stephenmcdonagh2795, precisely so. And this is why it´s common pracitce to dry your laundry outdoors in freezing temperatures. :-)

Well said, Well said indeed. I have read of Shackleton that 100 or so years earlier he'd have been a Pirate, though like yourself, he is the one who I admire the most having gotten his men out alive. I doubt it could be done with the better boats of today. (They wouldn't be found in that position in this day and age) Still, seems almost Bloody Stupid to not have used the dogs---Learned firstly how to, well really it was. That is the British, always above that.

Friends are Tasty.

And I may add, Nordics were/are far better explorers for cold weather, Amundsen is... one could say, the culmination of ages of Nordics sailing the rough and unknown seas

My favorite is still Nansen, the dude who got bored waiting for Fram to drift into the north pole and decided to jump off the ship running~

Well said!

The cold in Antarctica is unlike that of the artic even the most cold hardened men from the artic would be out of their element in Antarctica

They were “inferior” to the brits especially the brits of that time. You only need to read your own comment they were subjects not peers to the brits .it’s the same reason they didn’t just go to the eskimos and ask and learn. Arrogance.

Mentioned. "They wouldn't seek from the unlearned." Conquerors are proud. The Norwegian never met north American natives rather northern Europe.

I flew a ufo there and did not see him, but ok.

I was shocked they did not feature Douglas Mawson in this doc! Arguably the most scientific explorer of that time; he was equally heroic, but more interested in true discovery, than an ego-fuelled race to the middle of nowhere. Salute to your grandfather! Their story is an appalling omission here.

@Merrick Cody instablaster :)

Absolutely an epic journey. Reading the trail of the journey and the will to survive, it is amazing that they survived and the expedition members waiting for them would be doomed if they had not survived this epic journey of Shackleton and his small team.

@@merrickcody1692 o

Yeah that was ridiculous it is literally the most well known story about the place and they screw jt up by spouting total nonsense. They have film photos and journals and none ever even remotely mentioned mutiny. The worst thing they expressed was disliking some chores they had to do at times but they lived and respected Shackleton and he then. He would have spent three months and four attempts to sail back to them after doing the very first foot crossing of South Georgia after sailing in a 20 foot boat for over two weeks. It’s so disrespectful to screw that up so badly.

"Mutiny" is always a factor in extreme cold; Sir Ranulph Fiennes for example has often elaborated on the extreme irrational hatred which develops over the smallest things towards even ones best friends in Antarctic conditions. The cold, hunger and exertion makes people profoundly irrational.

U can’t say for sure no man considered mutiny. Period.

@@lachyt5247 Yes, I too recall reading that by Fiennes. I think there was dissent over the futility of hauling the lifeboats across such impenetrable terrain. It took Worsley to point out that the ice pack was moving faster than they could haul and that the calories consumed in doing so couldn't be justified.

Too bad there wasn’t some roughage and mud to mix that guano with, bc then they could have built some little insulated huts!

Hi Evelyn

Because some people think it's all a lie and then you have flat Earth idiots, that are just rebels without a clue😜

Perhaps it’s the inaccurate information presented that turns them off.

He lied to himself, he thought English spirit and pride would beat mother nature lol

He was an idiot. He planned for, and had food for only five men, and then took six men! Starvation was almost guaranteed.

Most other videos also rely on anti-Scott sources that have been largely debunked. From the late 70s to maybe mid 00s there was this tendency to dehumanize him, basically report every rumor as a fact if it attacks him (some of them were invention of one polar "historian" and have no other sources primary or otherwise). They wanted a villain, a personification of the sin of the Empire and this documentary isn't really different as it neglects to mention the abnormal weather, makes strange arguments regarding Scott's pick for the polar party (overestimating the choice of picking five man and implying Oates had no other merits other than being a pony man). I'm also not sure if anyone ever crossed the Beardmore Glacier with dogs but nevermind that. That hysteria is a result of trying to forcefully contrast him with Shackleton. If a book about polar expedition is about one explorer expect it to criticize another as if you can't be objective about all of them. Now there are more honest books about Scott (that those who only watch outdated documentaries don't know about) and it's Mawson who's the new target with one author not only calling him a horrible, useless leader but accusing him of pretty much murder. Again with very selective, weak arguments. Expect Shackleton, who was such a sacred cow in the 2000s, to be the next victim of character assassination because of his choices that lead to the Ross Sea Party tragedy. Or Amundsen because his decision not to take physicians on his journeys lead to death of at least one person. They all were great and all made mistakes but weren't monsters.

@@ShHeMiLeRe No Debunking required here. Planning for a 5 man team, then taking 6. (Madness) Factoring in Weather conditions and then relying on a seasonal wind to make the figures add up. (Lunacy) Taking Oats, who had wounded leg anyway. (Murder?) Scott was an Arrogant Entitled Twat! Shame he was charismatic enough to talk others in joining him in his Folly!

Me too ✋

There is an audio book about Shackleton s voyage. It’s awesome what these men did.

Read some of the papers put out from Scott's first expedition (Discovery). The Terra Nova expedition also produced some useful information; it wasn't just a personal ego-trip to the South Pole.

@@robertfindlay2325 Where did I say that it was? I'm well aware of the scientific contributions made by those expeditions, however the science was always secondary to the goal of reaching the pole. Scott, to his credit, was very hesitant to abandon the science when things started going pear shaped. But his primary goal from the beginning was to take the pole for his country.(Not that he was unique in this regard) Nowhere did I say that he was solely motivated by his own ego. Mawson was always primarily focused on science and exploration, I merely stated my surprise that his story is so often ignored by documentaries about the heroic age.

If Amundsen hadn't forced things into a race, Scott's scientific efforts (which were significant) might have been adjudged by history as its primary focus.

I think he isnt mentioned because his goal was never the south pol but "just" the exploration. Dosnt make his work any more important but just dosnt fit the topic of the Documentary wich was the race to the south pole (:

It’s a shame they ignored Mawson - one of the four giants of the age of Antarctic exploration. Mawson research station has been continuously operating since the mid ‘50s, and the preservation work on his famous Mawson’s Hut have been no less than heroic.

Exactly. They are all praiseworthy for their courage, even if they made mistakes. That type of courage is what drives advancement of mankind. The lazy contribute nothing. The US was settled by my pioneer ancestors. Now half the country sit on their a$$es and expect “the government “ to provide for them.

Ditto! How did they survive?! I’d be gone in a New York minute.!

Elizabeth Frantes . Hahahahahaha! Scotts plan obviously wasn't a Professor of Cunning at Oxford University! 😁

"hold my beer....!"

Scott was an idiot at best and possibly a criminal. He killled those people with his hubris. I dont feel sorry for him one bit. I do feel for th poor devils that gave their lives for his twisted dream.

How did they know they reached the exact point of the South Pole?

Mister E Jones...not many people know, much less like "Blackadder"! I watched the series twice...

Amundsen didn’t care about his animals or his team. Nor the british team that were in a race unknown to them. He has blood on his hands.

​@@arsenal10141014Who's blood? All of his men returned. He took proper care of his animals and took care to end their lives humanely when the time came.

I'm Norwegian myself, and it is a well known fact that Amundsen was indeed arrogant, treating his crew badly, and milking most of the glory of the exhibition for himself. However, the crew as a whole (which critically included Sami people - experts of survival in snowy climates) did make some wise decisions and TOGETHER planned and completed the exhibition. Too much emphasis is placed on Amundsen the man, too little on the crew. But it is also quite clear that one of the reasons Amundsen and his crew made it, and the others didn't was largely due to a great deal of luck! Weather, almost fell through creveses etc. Yes he has/is been celebrated as a folk hero her in Norway. But we were a newly independent country then and this image of him as a hero was great advertisement for us. Am image he basked in while he was alive.

Very smart man indeed.

The Brits in here literally just make excuses all day for their failures. "Oh we were tricked, he was lucky, our culture was wrong at the time, we sent stupid people, we died from broken hearts not bad planning, but at least we did it with dignity and honor."

@@felixdelabarara494 good to know your not an Anglophobe then!

@@churchether There is an old saying that the harder someone works the luckier he/she becomes. Translated to Antarctica it could be something like the close someone is to the Antarctic Summer the luckier he/she is. Amundsen and crew were fast and lucky.

I think you are misjudging that significantly… it was a legitimate race that they lost horribly. Scott left first not amundsden.

@Robert Beck That’s the worst thing. For people so proud to have achieved so much in the world thanks to the scientific method AND sheer willpower, Scott entirely threw away half of their power.

As someone else mentioned, Scott repeatedly did not learn from his mistakes. He was a frustratingly and colossally hubristic moron

Climate change is not a hoax, for the most part. Mostly it is mass hysteria.

The glaciers in Glacier Natl. Park have receded massively. Nearly every mountain range is losing its glaciers. This is so easily verified that I don't know what else to say. The rates are alarming. Please go look at this again. Sure, they aren't all "gone," but many glaciers, hundreds if not thousands, have actually completely disappeared, and many more have shrunk at unnatural rates. Not to mention, the extent of ice sheets has shrunk by downright scary amounts, and this simply relies on photographs you can look at for yourself. Just keep an open mind. It's scary and depressing sure, but it doesn't mean it isn't happening, and it doesn't mean that pretending we can just spew fossil fuels into the atmosphere for more centuries is feasible.

@@houstonharwood7197 The most glaciated state is AK, #2 is WA. Here in WA we have too much glaciers. Will be happy if we could slip down to #10.

See you in 2050, if you live that long. I certainly won't

Its all a lie. Soon they will be begging us to produce carbon emissions to warm the earth. All the problems we face and we give global warming priority? All a huge lie, wake up.
