Adventure seekers should know this guy, and his ship, the Endurance. Apparently they left boxes of whisky and brandy in the ice... it was just discovered, intact.

One of the greatest adventure stories ever told, and it was all true. Readers should check out the Alfred Lansing book Endurance.

As soon as I saw the name I knew who this was. I've been planning a trip to Antarctica for some time now. It is so amazing that they found this. I wonder what else they will uncover underneith the ice. Cheers and double cheers to you for sharing this article! :mug::mug:
