La conquista del polo sud, Amundsen vs Scott: la sfida epica e tragica tra i ghiacci dell'Antartide

Two expeditions, two commanders, and two different strategies for the same grand goal: the conquest of the South Pole, the last unexplored continent. Norwegian Roald Amundsen and Englishman Robert Falcon Scott challenged each other in the early 1900s to this incredible feat amidst the ice of Antarctica. But who would be the first man in history to reach the southernmost point on Earth? On the one hand, Scott, who had already attempted to win the title; on the other, Amundsen, stinging at the news that someone else had reached the North Pole before him. In this video, we tell the gripping story of the discovery of the South Pole and discover which of the two commanders reached the finish line first, beating his opponent to the punch. 00:00 The epic story of the conquest of the South Pole 00:28 Robert Falcon Scott's Antarctic explorations 01:21 Why Amundsen headed for the South Pole 02:23 The heroic age of Antarctic exploration 02:51 The challenge between Scott and Amundsen 03:21 Different routes and means to reach the goal 04:11 The harsh climate and adversity 04:33 Who discovered the South Pole and when? 4:50 Amundsen's Difficult Return Journey 5:31 Robert Falcon Scott's Difficult Fate 6:15 The Amundsen-Scott Base at the South Pole OUR RECOMMENDED VIDEOS:    • Sotto l'Antartide: come sarebbe il contine...      • La "conquista" del polo nord: l'impresa di...      • 3 anni e 200 morti: Magellano e la prima c...   OUR SUGGESTED ARTICLES: https://www.geopop.it/dove-puntano-le...
