#amundsen #southpole
around 2012, british and norwegain marines did allmost same trip on Greenland and they gave same gear as in 1912. They copied diet and transportations, and medics checked teams allmost every day. Instead of killing dogs, they removed dogs and gave them some other meat. This testing showed that british troops lose so much weight, so they had to stop . Norwegians in other hand, they gain weight and manage to do this trip. Main difference was, norwegian had high calorie diet like chocolate and fat, while british troop had low calorie food like biscuit.
I love this graph of the journeys. I’ve read several books on it but this is very helpful.
Thank you. Very helpful. Let us remember that every man making the attempt deserve to be called hero. Luck plays a part in all successful endeavors, although Amundsen seems to have given his attempt added advantage with his experience and better preparation. Salute them all!
Scott was the expert of Antartctica after years of research work there. Amundsen had been close to Antarctica only once many years before.
So underrated
Thank you for this video! I am currently reading a book about Amundsen and have difficulties imagining the route. That was very helpful!
When the Fram got to Hobart, the first civilised place they had seen in over a year, a rather weather beaten Amundsen walked in to the upmarket Hadleys Hotel and convinced the staff to rent him a room. He then went to the central post office and sent a telegram to the King of Norway announcing that he had reached the pole. Then the news was out and people now knew who he was. The hotel staff were embarrassed that they had almost refused to rent a room to this dirty stranger with a strange accent who was now one of the most famous people in the world.
Great video, well explained, thank you!
Lots of books on the subject, couple of notable I’ve read were Ranulph Fiennes take on Scott’s journey and by the youngest member of Scott’s team Apsley Cherry Garrard wrote the worst journey in the world, reckoned to be the best account describing Antarctic exploration and his account of searching and finding Scott’s tent the following spring.
Masyaallah, so cool
Keep spirit to make awesome video bro !
Super film.Thank you
Great video! Are you planing one about North Pole or about Shackleton?
Amundsen did his research. His biggest advantage was the dogs, which were faster and provided his men with protein and protection from scurvy.
Scott lost this race the minute Amundsen entered it.
This is a remarkable presentation of the South Pole race between Scott and Amundsen, although omits some key events e.g. the failed premature first start to the pole, of Amundsen's party in September 1911, which nearly cost the lives of his men (they were eventually forced to turn back to their base, badly frostbitten and injured due to very low temperatures, and merely made it back to safety, on the verge of collapse).
Anyway, for a much more detailed narration, one could check the relevant BBC mini series of 1985 'Last Place on Earth', a historical dramatization of the events, based on the book by Roland Huntford. It is a very impressive production and is definitely worth seeing.

Great video, and unbiased.
The Norwegians knew a thing or two about extreme cold. Sadly the English didn't.
Great work
Interesting content sir. Subscribed.
Surprised by a blizzard? In Antarctica? No, they were killed by incompetence.
The blizzard never happened. Scott faked it to cover his suicide.
They _were_ surprised by a blizzard, and, while Scott certainly made critical mistakes, it wasn't simple incompetence that got them caught by surprise. They had a meteorologist who had analyzed weather data from previous expeditions, and Scott and his men expected to have at least a few more weeks of milder weather before the Antarctic winter set in. In almost any other year they would have, but as we now know, with even more data to go on, roughly once every fifteen years or so, winter roars in early in Antarctica. Well, 1912 just happened to be one of those years.
@@Hibernicus1968 5 men traveling on provisions planned for 4 and hauling rock samples in place of food: you have no idea what Scott did on purpose.
@@PiedFifer I've studied the expedition quite thoroughly. I have _every_ idea what he did on purpose, as well as what his reasoning was for doing it. It's likely that in _any_ other year than 1912, he and his men would have survived. They would still have lost the race to the pole to Amundsen, but they would have survived if the unexpected early extreme cold temperatures had not msde man hauling the sledges much harder -- below certain temperatures, friction-induced melting of snow under sled runners doesn't take place. Under those extremely cold temperatures, hauling sleds becomes much, much harder, and pulling the sleds becomes more like dragging them across dry sand than snow. Scott and his men encountered such temperatures on the way back, and would not have at that same time of year in 1911 or 1913, or any other year, and they would have covered many more miles per day. They also would have used less energy, suffered less from frostbite, and not been caught by a blizzard before reaching their depot.
@@Hibernicus1968 You are expressing an article of faith. Amundson reached the pole and returned his men’s successfully in 1912. That’s the end of your argument. The reason Scott took five men including the oversized P.O. Evans, was that he knew he’d lost the race to the pole and he was now going to do his own hagiography. He was going to make a Byronic Saint of himself and with the help of his wife and several publishers, who excised the abundant evidence of criminal negligence,Scott did just that. For Scott, committing suicide in the Antarctic was a way to escape his crushing mediocrity.
I think that if only you get a really good microphone you will be able to increase your subscribers 10 fold. Your content is already up there in quality, just needs another little bump.
Hello, Is it possible for me to use parts of your video to produce a video about the same adventure but discusses the leadership aspect of Amundsen and Scott?
Appreciating your quick response.
Buen documental ..aunque he echado de menos subtítulos en español
Scott's last journal entry:
Since the 21st we have had a continuous gale from W.S.W. and S.W. We had fuel to make two cups of tea apiece and bare food for two days on the 20th. Every day we have been ready to start for our depot 11 miles away, but outside the door of the tent it remains a scene of whirling drift. I do not think we can hope for any better things now. We shall stick it out to the end, but we are getting weaker, of course, and the end cannot be far.
It seems a pity, but I do not think I can write more.
R. SCOTT.
For God’s sake look after our people.
Commenter talking again: Pretty sad his last few entries. He mentions his loss of hope for survival over a week earlier, and briefly mentions contemplating suicide on the 22nd. Instead he stuck it out till the 29th and died naturally.
No wonder the Norwegians had the upper hand: Norwegians are grown up with ice and snow and cold weather; it's second nature for them to tackle such conditions, from childhood. And most, if not all of the men Amundsen brought along with him, were seasoned explorers from the Arctic, a very comparable climate - if not worse, apart from the altitude of the Antarctic continent. But the Norwegian mountains are a splendid place for training. In addition to this, Amundsen and some of his men had also learned from the Inuits how to survive in a polar climate and handle dogs, in addition to their childhood experiences with ice, snow and cold - and skis. Almost all Norwegians, at least at that time, were skiing from the day they could barely walk; it was a part of their upbringing, and still is, to some extent.
So, if Scott's men were brave, and no doubt about it, they were; they lacked the know how, the competence. And maybe Scott's alleged arrogance didn't exactly help either. I don't know.
It's all in all a sad story, really.
What’s sad? A brilliant and effective hero succeeded and a foolish mediocrity and his blind followers perished, victims of their unwillingness to think for themselves. Only fabulist “history” denies Amundsen the credit he deserves and denies us the hero we desperately need.
Amundsen spent 2 years living with Inuit on Prince William island. It was from them he learned how to survive longterm in polar conditions.
@@liamhickey359 Two winters, yes, that's correct. 🙂
You sound like a Jordan Peterson parrot. The gratuitous, presumptuous, condescension . Thinking for yourself?.
@@PeterPan-iz1kk there is a lecture about Amundsen that's worth a listen . What he picked up from the Inuit was incredible . He was also a very savvy, imaginative planner and leader. He was ahead of Scott in more ways than only distance. But Scott had his qualities too.
When ever you go to the snow, take an Norwegian flag😅.
Speak.
Hey ive been to the Fram ship and watched a movie about it and can asurev you that Roald Amundsen didnt steal the pole as the British said!
Excellent video
Very impressive animation that outlines very clearly Amundsen and Scott's differing strategies to access the pole. I enjoyed it. One point of accuracy - Scott used Ponies not horses. This was a mistake as they simply could not deal with the temperatures as dogs could. Amundsen actually took dogs to the pole with him... Their paw prints were visible when Scott's polar team arrived after Amundsen.
I absolutely hate Amundsen for killing those dogs
But you don't mind Scott killing those ponies?
Practical for the journey to the South Pole, the Huskies would serve as meat for both Amundsen's team and the remaining dogs. Less weight means faster speeds and distances. The expedition was a race between two fierce competitors and to be frank Amundsen in his biography said himself he wasn't exactly comfortable about killing "loyal travel companions."
