Australian Geographic presents Jim and Yvonne Claypole's amazing tale of endurance in Antarctica. Jim and Yvonne Claypole spent twelve months living in a 2.4 metre x 3.6 metre prefabricated hut chained to rocks on the ice edges of the Antarctic continent. The dangers they faced were extreme, both physically and psychologically. The story of their private expedition is one of inspiration and determination to survive in an environment that even the penguins and seals desert for six months of the year. Such survival was totally reliant on the couple's ability to stay mentally positive as they were plunged into 24 hour darkness in the depths of the harsh Antarctic winter. Share their emotional and inspiring journey in this compelling true story.
