He has a ship (the aptly named Endurance), a head brimming with optimism, and 28 men willing to follow him on an expedition across some of the most treacherous terrain on the planet. But Shackleton's optimism doesn't last long. Despite his experience in the Antarctic, disaster strikes early on when the Endurance is trapped in packed ice and slowly crushed, forcing Shackleton and his men off the ship and stranding them in a sea of ice. \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSouth\u003c\/i\u003e is the legendary story of Shackleton and his crew's struggle to survive the elements and return home alive.
