The Legend of Shackleton’s Endurance


Listen Later

#231 Catron and Chris are back for another iamLegend episode to talk about Sir Ernest Shackleton and his ship, Endurance.  Hear the story of how he and his crew of 28 attempted to cross Antarctica in a journey that would take them almost 2 years before they returned home.  The ship sank to the bottom of the Weddell Sea but miraculously, the entire crew survived to tell the story.  A recent episode of History's Greatest Mysteries followed a team that was able to find the wreckage 10,000 feet below the sea level.
