There is a STARTLING RACE in ANTARCTICA going on right now
Two men are vying to be the first person to ski from coast to coast in Antarctica without support or resupply. The last person do attempt it died trying. The American and British contenders for this first shot are trying to ski nearly 1,000 miles by themselves, at -40 degrees, in less than 70 days. It’s pretty insane.
I’m a polar explorer and I covered 700+ miles in Antarctica, so I know exactly what they’re going through. My video provides insight and vision to help you understand the task these two have chosen.
One skier already had frostbite, a big mistake this early in the game. I'm surprised he made that mistake. They're not even worn out yet.
