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.

Crunch!In a minibus in deepest darkest Cornwall after a very good night out. Several people have been complaining about needing a piss for some time and were ignored by the sobre and understandably annoyed driver.
Poor dear just wanted to get home and go get a pint for himself.
As we stop at a junction, the aforementioned people make a break for it. Driver didn't notice and a loud 'CRUNCH' followed by genuine screams of tormented anguish.
Rear left wheel of the minibus had just munched the laptop that fell out of the door. Poor Joe's disertation was due a couple of weeks later.
Not a good journey for Joe.
