The Brusilov Expedition - Lost in a Frozen Hell


Listen Later

In 1912, the Russian ship St. Anna became trapped over 1,000 km from land. For nearly two years, it drifted through the Arctic as the crew faced scurvy, starvation, and total isolation.

One man made a desperate 500 km journey across the ice to find help. Only two men survived. The rest were never seen again.

This is the haunting true story of the Brusilov Expedition—one of the Arctic’s greatest survival mysteries.
