Antarctica, Elephant Island, April 24, 1916: Ernest Shackleton and five of his men board the small sailboat, take another look back at the rest of his crew and launch the most spectacular rescue operation in the history of the Southern Ocean. In order to free his crew from the polar ice after the loss of the polar ship Endurance, he dares to cross the sea to the coast of South Georgia 1500 km away. The fact that the boat actually reaches the coast after 16 days of sailing over the open sea is a miracle. But then Shackleton has to cross the icy, mountainous island for another five days to get help at a whaling station. In August 1916 the crew of the Endurance is freed from its prison of ice and snow. Arved Fuchs talks to the author about his expedition, in which he recounts the incredible rescue journey of Ernest Shackleton himself.
