Interesting video, but it always surprises me how these Shackleton documentaries seem to hardly mention Frank Worsley. If not for Worsley's navigation abilities and seamanship in the lifeboat "James Caird" none of them would have survived. Shackleton certainly deserves his place in history for holding them all together, keeping their spirits up and making the decisions he made, but in the end it would all have been for nothing without Capt. Frank Worsley's amazing seamanship. I always think that should be more recognized than it ever seems to be.

These men were made of different stuff then most...to come out of that journey alive only to find the world destroyed by war. A truly amazing account of endurance indeed!

Even just one of Shackleton's escapades would leave me exhausted for rest of existence 😅

My father was part of the ANARE group and spent a year at Mawson and Davis in 1969. We lost my Dad April 2023 and watching this makes me remember the many books he had collected over the years about Shackleton,Mawson and Scott.<br>Great watch, and I reckon it’s time for me to start reading about these courageous explorers, along with my dads written memoirs. <br>Thanks for posting.

My grandad was onboard this ship. Can’t believe you made a documentary about his gap year!

I know myself well enough to know this would be a nightmare journey for me.

I remember when we did a unit study on the antarctic explorers just thinking how unutterably mad they would have to be to put themselves in that position! Yet thank goodness they did because in sharing their journey with us, we get to be armchair explorers! All the excitement and none of the risk 🤣

If they'd been lesser men the whole Endurance affair would have been a tale of tragedy.
