What problems did Ernest Shackleton encounter?

Answer 1

Shackleton's first challenge was the ship breaking. It broke and he had to race against time to take everything out. The cold weather was another challenge. On one attempt to reach the South Pole in 1908, all of his ponies died and there were heavy storms. On a second attempt to reach the South Pole in 1914, his ship was crushed by pack ice, forcing the expedition to walk 1,200 km to South Georgia. Five months later they were rescued by a Chilean warship. On a third attempt to reach the South Pole in 1921, Shackleton died from a heart condition.
