[00:11.48]Good evening and welcome to Adventure.
[00:14.20]Today we're going to talk
[00:15.52]about modern explorers.
[00:17.77]Let's begin with a story of Marek Kaminski.
[00:21.01]In the studio
[00:21.60]we have Matt Thomas who has recently
[00:23.94]interviewed the polish explorer. Hi.
[00:26.63]Marek Kaminski's two most famous expeditions
[00:30.47]so far were in 1995, weren't they?
[00:33.62]That's right.
[00:34.84]In the first one to the North Pole
[00:37.00]he traveled on skis with Wojtek Moskal
[00:40.15]and got to the Pole on the 23rd of May 1995.
[00:43.62]He called the journey 'Poles tothe Pole'.
[00:45.99]That's good name.
[00:47.59]Yes. And his second one was a solo¹ journey
[00:50.00]tothe South Pole by himself.
[00:52.68]He traveled 1400 km
[00:55.38]and got to the Pole on the 26th of December
[00:57.91]in the same year.
[00:59.53]He called the second journey 'A Pole
[01:01.45]to the Poles'.
[01:02.83]And did he have any problems on this one?
[01:04.89]Mmm. His beggest problem was wind,
[01:07.92]blowing with speeds up to 330 km per hour.
[01:12.52]And there were temperatures
[01:13.51]of minus 60 degrees C.
[01:16.05]Antarctica's a tough place, you know.
