S1E1: Sir Ranulph Fiennes To the Ice

Alok Jha talks to Sir Ranulph Fiennes about the explorers of the past, his experiences of Antarctica and what it actually takes to go there. Sir Ranulph Fiennes is an explorer, author, fundraiser and public speaker. He was described by The Guinness Book of Records as “the world’s greatest living explorer” in 1984, and, since then, he has broken many more world records and led many more expeditions to remote regions. He became, with Charles Burton, the first man ever to have travelled around the Earth's circumpolar surface. His record-breaking expeditions include travel by riverboat, hovercraft, man-haul sledge, skidoo, Land Rover and ski, and have raised many millions of pounds for charity. 🇦🇶 FIND OUT MORE 🇦🇶 https://www.ukaht.org/antarctica-in-s... 🐧 ADOPT A PENGUIN 🐧 https://shop.ukaht.org/collections/ad... 📣 SUBSCRIBE 📣 https://bit.ly/UKAHT-YouTube 🎯 FOLLOW US 🎯 ✩ Instagram:   / ukantarcticheritagetrust   ✩ Facebook:   / ukantarcticheritagetrust   ✩ Twitter:   / antarcticht   ✩ TikTok:   / ukantarcticheritagetrust
