We ready? Yes. Okay, let's find the Endurance. We're still talking about Shackleton because this is the greatest tale of survival in history, and it's a story about failure. Success awaits; dive ones, let's go.

In 1914, Shackleton was convinced the greatest Antarctic journey was yet to be done: crossing the Antarctic continent from one side to the other. So, he dragged his men on a doomed quest. We tried once before in 2019 to search for the Endurance. It felt like my whole life had been converging upon that moment, and then it all went wrong.

Imagine being here in a little wooden boat, no GPS, no nothing, and then the leader says, "Oh by the way boys, we're stuck, and we’re going to spend the winter here." We watched the death of the ship. "She’s gone boys." From that moment on, he laser-focused on getting those men home.

Now we are stuck on I and losing time. Patience, we're not finding anything at all, and temperatures are going to go off a cliff. We'll have to call the search off. As long as we can come out of this predicament with our lives, we shall not grumble.

Why we go, I cannot say; today is the day. What the impelling force is that makes explorers, I cannot describe. And as long as there is any mystery on this globe, it is not only man's right to look at that but his duty to try to unravel it.
