ernest shackleton achieved many things but the one he is most famous for is the endurance expedition. his boat got crushed in pack ice, but he new he could not give up so he led all of his men to safety and not one of his men died or got lost.
Shackleton and his men had to the liver of dogs they brought and also seals!
Ernest Shackleton took a total of 28 men on his famous Antarctic expedition aboard the ship Endurance in 1914. The team included scientists, seamen, and explorers, all of whom were recruited for their skills and expertise. Shackleton's leadership and the crew's resilience became legendary after they faced incredible challenges during the journey.
28 men on the endurance plus 10 laying supplies on the far side of the pole from the Aurora.
Ernest Shackleton directed his men to walk across the ice to Paulet Island in order to seek refuge and safety after their ship, the Endurance, was crushed by ice in the Weddell Sea. Paulet Island was the closest land and offered the best chance of survival for the crew.
Shackleton ate from the supplies he had aboard his ship. When these supplies ran out, he and his men had to resort to eating Seals and Penguins. Eventually, they even ate some or all of the dogs that he brought with him.
There were 28 crew members aboard the Endurance during the ill-fated Antarctic expedition led by Sir Ernest Shackleton in 1914.
Ernest Shackleton didn't recieve any awards like trophies or anything...but I would say that his award would be that he reached his goal and got all his men to safety without any of them dying or getting lost. It is for that reason he is reconized as a hero. He is still remembered to tghis day for his courage, bravery, determination, ENDURANCE. Shackleton is a hero. That is the greatest award of all.
Captain Sailer Spent most of his life on a boat out on the sea ~ Sir Ernest Shackleton went on a boat named the Endurance and sailed to Antarctica with 27 men with one stowaway named Perce (sounds like Pierce)Blackburrow ( not sure about last name spelling:/) Shackleton and his men got stuck in the ice and had to abandon ship. a while later Shackleton finally yelled that the ship was sinking and the men were only allowed 2 lbs of personal items to take they had to pull 3 life boats name the James Caird (biggest) and 2 others that i forget the names to. Shackleton and all men sailed to Elephant Island~an uninhabited island out of the way of other islands then shackleton decided to take his five best men and try to sail to the whaling station on South Georgia Island about 500 miles away on the James Caird. but landed on the wrong side and traveled on land to the other side and made it in less than 3 days Shackleton tried to rescue the men 3 times until finally on a tub boat he rescued and 21 men ( +5 and Shackleton). This is from a book I read all facts should be right :)
went on 4 expeditions to antarctica and escaped from certain death with all his men alive
