The Worst Journey in the WorldAspley 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.

Satnavis the bane of many a country drive. I've ended up going down routes which don't even have a name, the screen just says "road". Worse, however, was my friend's experience trying to get from one New Year's party to another. The Satnav managed to mistake a nearby field for a road. So my mate's little Yaris got stuck. Cue a stroke of midnight phone call "Alright? Where are you?".... "in a field... help?". S'alright though, they got pulled out in the morning.
