... one of the finest documentaries you'll-ever-watch... DO-NOT-MISS-IT
... two expeditions side-by-side... and be sure stay-for entire-ending-credits
... these were both amazing-human-endeavors ... absolutely-crazy-incredible

[Vega-BVB]

This documantary film is beyond all words. An absolute must-see

[juleshorse]

It is not a story about failure, but of leadership and overcoming adversity.

This is my most favorite story in the worlds history! Love you guys

This was an excellent video on Endurance and Shackleton. NatGeo used AI to extend the short audio and video clips that were saved from the voyage. Shackleton's adventure was truly amazing. 665 Days at sea and he was able to come back to save his men. He was truly an amazing person and such a great story. Explorers found Endurance almost 100 years after it sunk!

Best expedition story EVER. Much respect

[rachelscranton]

Absolutely in awe of this story of endurance and leadership and perseverance! Could not put the book down!

[BanzaiCAN]

One of my favorite books. If they made a movie about that expedition, people would think its fake. thats the level of epicness of these guys. Especially the sailing on the James Caird and crossing South Georgia on foot.

Having visited County Kerry, Ireland and Tom Crean's South Pole Inn and reading about his expeditions with Shackleton and Scott, I am very excited to see this documentary, Can't wait!!

I've always liked the story of Shackleton and his men and the Endurance - I like the switching between the story telling of the old expedition and the current one searching for the Endurance - great documentary 😊👍

[jjankosky]

Nice timing, I'm reading Shackleton: By Endurance We Conquer now. Insane what people used to accomplish before the age of 30.

[Nutbelly]

Thank you for making this shake my soul. It’s a beautiful story of camaraderie and survival. Thank you for putting this together 🙌 I’m sure there is much more to learn from this story. Inspired to use my instincts more and become survival of the fittest and clearest mind
