Expedition to the Eternal Ice of Greenland | Full Documentary

In the spring of 1930, Alfred Wegener and his men faced a race against time on an expedition to Greenland, in hopes of proving the existence of continental drift. For a whole year, he and his team compiled data from high in the atmosphere and deep in the ice sheet.

Crazy minds !! Love their passion and drive to push through such environments. I’ve spent many nights in a tent near Qaanaaq while raging Greenlandic Piteraqs threatened the tent walls from outside. ( with 21 st century luxury and emergency coms & nav ) Great share !

Crazy inspiring. It's insane to think he and his team ventured out to land that had never been seen by humans before. And that 400km trek, wow.

Amazing ! Arctic expeditions are utterly fascinating . These people more or less travelled to an alien planet .

There was something very... Victorian in Wegener's determination and boldness in the process of achieving His goals. He followed into the steps of Shackleton, Irvin and Mallory, Scott....and so on.

Except his main goal was real scientific research, not just reaching some geographical point for no real reason.

Even Greenland’s eternal ice can be mortal

You don't have to be a KZbin subscriber. There are several apps, depending on your computer OS, you can install to help download this for educational purpose.

So glad I visited in the 90's plenty of ice. Greenlanders helped me so much. Greetings from Australia😅
