Shackleton's Amazing Journey - Revisited

I originally made this video in 2004 after visiting Elephant Island and the actual James Caird in London. But I am now revisiting it following the discovery of the wreck of Shackleton's famous vessel "Endurance" on March 5th 2022 by the Endurance22 Expedition.

Inspiring, well summarised better than the professional documentary.

Thanks for this fitting and timely tribute to a legendary explorer.

In school, when I first learned of Shackleton’s 2 year ordeal in the Antarctic. I thought "No way, that has to be a misprint!".

[@sdcrilly]

That's amazing! Thank you for the documentary and for letting us know that the Endurance was found.

[@AnomadAlaska]

Fascinating. Thank you.

[@mcd5082]

Amazing as always tony!

[@jenniferwhitewolf3784]

Bravo!!! What an excellent production

[@Roddy1965]

In the day, it was essentially the equivalent of trying to reach the Moon. Brave, hard, men.

[@montyzumazoom1337]

I thoroughly recommend Shackleton’s book “South by Ernest Shackleton”. A brilliant story of endeavour and survival. Shackleton never lost a man during the expedition. There was another expedition consisting of a ship and crew that set sail from New Zealand, the idea being that it would meet Shackleton’s party on the other side of Antarctica. But I believe a crew member was lost. I never new the boat James Caird was preserved, that was a nice surprise 👍

[@FlemingYachts]

Actually, three men were lost from the Ross Sea party who were supposed to meet Shackleton. Their ship, Aurora,was swept out to sea with most of their provisions. There is a book "The Lost Men" by Tyler-Lewis. Also see my video about it at: 38408062 titled "Antarctica Historic Huts.

[@FlemingYachts]

Actually I gave you the wrong link. It should be: vimeo.com/38408062

[@kiwiwifi]

Educational and entertaining. Thank you

[@stingray427man]

Saw the ship, it definitely leaves you with ghostly feels.

[@evabalga6133]

Thank you for sharing this piece of history. Amazing.

[@brutus7319]

What a great video about an impressive journey, thank you very much!

[@Nordic-Song]

I am going to use your video in school. Was planning to talk about the discovery of the ship in current events. Your film will be very helpful. Thanks!

[@FlemingYachts]

Good! From some of the comments I have received plus inaccurate statements made in the media by people who should know better, I have been struck by how many people are not aware of the full story.

[@Nordic-Song]

@@FlemingYachts my high school students found the story very interesting. Your video was a great addition to the lesson. Thanks.

[@FlemingYachts]

@@Nordic-Song Good. I'm glad my video helped to get the story out. Thanks for letting me know.

[@thereissomecoolstuff]

An amazing story of survival. Now with Endurance being found we have the last part of the story told.

[@raypearson2283]

An amazing story accomplished by amazing men. The book is a must read if you have had the opportunity.

[@BobEstler]

Great narration

[@Big.Ron1]

Wow. 4 miles. That was amazing accuracy given the conditions. Thank you for another wonderful look at the world around us and the history of times gone by. Be safe.

[@scarletbegonias2359]

Bravo, excellent presentation

Lekker man lekker 🇿🇦

[@MrGeroth]

Awesome Tiny

[@brianbelton3605]

I have read "the Endurance" many times, and I always think of Earnest Shackletons voyage, as the most heroic adventure for so many reasons: I never thought I would actually see The Endurance, resting on the oceans floor. Heart Wrenching and amazing photos: For me, is as/more meaningful than HMS Hood, Bismarck, Titanic, and the USS Arizona: The difference being, Endurance was on a peaceful scientific journey, not a war-ship, or an unsinkable.. . . If only Josh Slocum was aboard Endurance.. . . . the Endurance would have never get caught in that ice flow.. . . . Josh Slocums book is a good read. "the Spray"

[@tonandmarc]

well done sir.

[@suziqbrown7073]

AMAZING VIDEO THANK YOU

[@Ladythyme]

One word: “WOW!”

[@oswaldsheppard4810]

Love your channel.

[@CarterWHern]

Well done!

[@loisraymcinnis6006]

I like watching Fleming Yachts.

[@patrickreid2767]

So we’ll done!

[@MegaWebsters]

Only a single mention in the last seconds of Frank Worsley the New Zealander who if it wasn’t for his incredible navigation and seamanship Shackleton would never have survived this adventure. Poor show Mr Fleming.
