The Worst Journey in the World
Aspley Cherry Garrard was the youngest member of the Scott Polar Expedition when he and two others lost their tent to the winds of a night-time snowstorm. They spent hours in temperatures below -70°F stumbling about the ice floes hoping they'd bump into it as it was their only hope of survival.
OK, so that was bad, but we reckon you've had worse. We know how hard you lot are.

I normally have terrible journeys
I have had 2 people have epileptic fits one sitting beside me on a train and the other sitting behind me on a plane but there is one that springs to mind on my way back from my parents.
journey - Galasheils to Aldershot
Someone jumped infront of the bus (not my bus but one going the other way) on the way into Edinburgh and their head went through the windscreen.
Someone died of a heart attack in my carriage on the way from Edinburgh to London.
The train from London to Aldershot had no working lights.
I was a nervous wreck when I got home after seeing 2 people die infront of me and then being forced to sit in the dark for 45 minutes with lots of strangers. I have never been so glad to be home in all my life.
