@@benmmarino At 10:20, some Mills-guy tells us that Scotts expedition is the first expedition in 25 years to either Polar regions. A bit earlier someone says they Are travelling to an unknown Antarctica..well.. Scott did bring an Australian astronomer(not sure if it is correctly written) with him.. and that Man was part Of the Southern Cross expedition a couple Of years earlier… and spent an entire winter there. Bernacchi I think it was. So these Are 2 examples Of very very poor researching from their part( the makers Of the documentary, and the «experts» they used). There Are more examples

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.

There are also many photographs from the Southern Cross expedition 1898, and one short video where their sponsor handshakes the members of the expedition before departure in London.

@twstf8905 Almost all those magnificent photographs are glass plates from Frank Hurleys work with Endurance expedition. Last photos in Elephant Island are taken with pocket Kodak, and quality is nowhere near as good. Cant blame them, under circumstances. Hurley had to abandon all equipment to ice except pocket Kodak. Hurley had to fight with Shackleton to keep best negatives and few rolls of film in boat journey to Elephant Island.

Frank Hurley was with Australasian expedition (Mawson) in Antarctic before joining Shackleton in Endurance few years later. He was highly experienced man. His films from Australian expedition of winds that can make grown man fly are interesting to watch.

There is lot of photographs of Titanic in her maiden voyage. The photographer (i believe he was cleric with hobby as photographer) left the ship in Ireland. Titanic started her first and only voyage from Southampton, did go to Cherbourg, France, and then to Queenstown, Ireland, before starting crossing Atlantic.

Can you tell me the summary of this video ? Please, very urgentttt

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.

Wow.

Very interesting

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

Thanks. I just added that to my TO READ list. Sounds great!

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.

@@horstebreedow8608 still though. It's pretty awesome.

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.

I don’t know how anyone survived!

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~

How?

@@tulanebs Because if you play the doco backwards it plays evil left wing ideological propaganda, at one point it says that Dianne Abbott is intelligent and that Sidique Kahn is a good politician 😑

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!

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.

My tribute also goes to Borchgrevinks SouthernCross expedition, 1898-1900. They were the first to spend a winter on the Antarctic continent, and to do scientific research there. And wasnt even mentioned in this documentary, which makes several statements in it..false. So for me it is not a wonderful video. RIP Nikolai Hanson

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.

@@landrion7 Borchgrevink, leader of the SouthernCross expedition 1898-1900 brought with him 2 indigenous people, samis, to Antarctica. And they were certainly not `out of their element`.. or at least much less out of their elements than many others. They were valued members of the expedition because of thei dog-handling and their knowledge of how to stay warm in cold climate.

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.

@@robinhood480 spot on.

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.

WHY? stay home next to hot wood stove and FOOD!!!

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.

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.

Then the future isn't so bright stick to your game boy then .these are real people

I'm listening to it to Try and fall asleep. It beats the "Better your life sleep hypnosis". 😁

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.

It looks like this movie is quite old, so it's not from "these days".

I guess it is good to many, but if you have knowledge about some of the expeditions they left out, you would know that they dont interpret facts the same ways as serious historians.
