28 lost adventurers must fight for their lives after their only lifeline is destroyed in the most uninhabitable place on Earth – Antarctica. ‘Shackleton - The Greatest Story of Survival’ reveals the true story of polar explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton and the crew of the Endurance, told by the man who led the only team ever to have repeated their incredible feat - explorer and adventurer Tim Jarvis.
In 1913 Sir Ernest Shackleton set sail with 27 men that attempt to cross the frozen continent of Antarctica on foot. His vessel became trapped in sea ice, forcing the crew to face the permanent darkness of winter trapped on the frozen Weddell Sea. After nine months locked in the ice, the ship was crushed beyond repair, forcing the crew into a desperate battle to survive and find their way back to civilisation.
