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.

Aeroflot's inflight gourmet mealBack in the day, a friend and his missus travelled to Bulgaria on Aeroflot for a spot of skiing. Their inflight meal consisted of a lump of bread, a hunk of cheese and a nice big bottle of red wine. His wife wasn't a big fan of wine, so he drank both bottles in 2 hours, passed out and came to as the plane was taxiing into the airport. He had a great time, but his wife was a bit pissed off about the whole thing.
