Endurance - An Epic Story of Survival - Episode 4 - Stranded

In this episode, the 28 men of the Endurance find themselves stranded on the sea ice with three small lifeboats, their sled dogs, and enough food to last only a few months. With no ship, no radio contact, and no rescue coming, they drift northward on an endless frozen desert, utterly alone. Shackleton makes a series of devastating decisions — including the order to shoot the dogs — as the reality of their situation begins to close in. Then, on the 21st of November 1915, the Endurance finally slips beneath the surface of the Weddell Sea. Shackleton watches her go and writes just four words in his diary. Now there is truly no going back. What follows is a story of leadership under the most unimaginable pressure — and a man who refused, absolutely and completely, to let a single one of his men die.
