00:00We're still talking about Shackleton because this is the greatest tale of survival in history.
00:11And it's a story about failure.
00:14Success awaits.
00:15Dive ones, let's go.
00:16In 1914, Shackleton was convinced the greatest Antarctic journey was yet to be done, crossing
00:21the Antarctic continent from one side to the other.
00:24So he dragged his men on a doomed quest.
00:28We tried once before in 2019 to search for the Endurance.
00:33It felt like my whole life had been converging upon that moment.
00:37And then it all went wrong.
00:38Imagine being here in a little wooden boat, no GPS, no nothing.
00:44And then the leader says, oh, by the way, boys, we're stuck and we're going to spend
00:47the winter here.
00:50We watched the death of the ship.
00:53Shackleton said to the men, she's gone, boys.
00:57From that moment on, he's laser focused on getting those men home.
01:01Now we are stuck on ice and losing time.
01:04Patience.
01:05How can we be something that is part of the story of Shackleton and Renonce?
01:11We're not finding anything at all and temperatures are going to go off a cliff and we'll have
01:15to call the search off.
01:17As long as we can come out of this predicament with our lives, we shall not crumble.
01:23Why we go, I cannot say.
01:25Today is the day.
01:28What the impelling force is that makes explorers, I cannot describe.
01:33And as long as there is any mystery on this globe, it is not only man's right.
01:37Oh my gosh, look at that.
01:39But his duty to try to unravel it.
