En 1914, l'explorateur Ernest Shackleton part pour traverser l'Antarctique à pied. Mais son navire, l'Endurance, est pris dans les glaces, puis écrasé et englouti. Les 28 hommes campent sur la banquise pendant des mois, puis rejoignent en canots l'île de l'Éléphant. Shackleton et cinq hommes naviguent ensuite 1 300 km dans un minuscule canot jusqu'à l'île de Géorgie du Sud, traversent ses montagnes et organisent les secours. Miracle : tous les hommes survivent ! L'épave a été retrouvée en 2022, à 3 000 m de profondeur. Past perfect : The ice had crushed the ship.
