Douglas Mawson wasn't just a survivor—he was a scientific powerhouse who helped put Australia on the map of polar exploration. His adventures began with the 1907–1909 Nimrod Expedition under Ernest Shackleton, during which he became one of the first to reach the Magnetic South Pole and climb Mount Erebus. But it was his own Australasian Antarctic Expedition from 1911 to 1914 that sealed his place in history.Mawson's leadership, grit, and heartbreak defined that journey. Stranded alone after the deaths of his companions, he hauled himself across 160 kilometres of ice, surviving crevasses, starvation, and the brutal cold. His story isn't just about endurance—it's about the pursuit of knowledge at the edge of the world.Join Holly & Matthew as they explore the trials, triumphs, and enduring legacy of Douglas Mawson—Australia's Antarctic hero.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/weird-crap-in-australia--2968350/support.

Oto jedna z najbardziej fascynujących historii eksploracji polarnej i dziejów Antarktydy– wyprawa Ernesta Shackletona i statku Endurance. Ta wyprawa miała być wielkim triumfem, przekroczeniem granic ludzkich możliwości i dowodem na to, że człowiek może podbić nawet najtrudniejsze środowiska. Zamiast tego stała się jedną z najbardziej dramatycznych sag o przetrwaniu, odwadze i niezłomnym duchu eksploratorów.
Martin Gutmann is an expert on the history of business and has written extensively about styles of past leaders. In this episode, he shares his thoughts on everything from today's political climate, to whether he thinks Ernest Shackleton is overrated (spoiler alert – he does), to the underrated excellence of less well-known figures in history. Chapters: 02:27 Meet Martin Gutmann Bill welcomes Martin Gutmann to the podcast, exploring his diverse background and extensive experience in various countries. Martin shares how his journey has shaped his understanding of different cultures and leadership. 04:24 The Role of History in Leadership Martin discusses how historical insights can inform contemporary challenges, particularly in leadership and management. He emphasizes the necessity of understanding history to navigate present issues effectively. 07:06 Lessons from the Past The conversation shifts to how past solutions have created today's problems, with Martin referencing the Industrial Revolution and its consequences. He highlights the importance of learning from history to find modern solutions. 10:11 The Optimism of Youth Bill and Martin reflect on the idealism of younger generations regarding climate change and sustainability. They discuss how engaging with young people can inspire hope for the future. 14:02 The Qualities of Great Leaders Martin shares insights on the characteristics of effective leaders, emphasizing their ability to envision possibilities that others cannot see. He contrasts this with the qualities of less favorable leaders. 16:11 Reevaluating Historical Figures The discussion turns to notable historical figures, with Martin expressing a preference for lesser-known leaders who have made significant impacts. He critiques the common narratives surrounding famous leaders like Thomas Jefferson. 20:04 Unseen Leaders and Their Impact Martin elaborates on the contributions of unseen leaders, using the example of Vasily Archipov during the Cuban Missile Crisis. He illustrates how individual actions can alter the course of history. 27:01 Churchill: The Crisis Manager Explore Winston Churchill's complex legacy as a leader during World War II, where he was thrust into a crisis not of his making. This chapter delves into the nuances of his leadership style, contrasting crisis management with the ability to foresee and avoid crises. 35:12 The Unseen Leader: Shackleton vs. Amundsen Martin Gutmann discusses the concept of the ‘unseen leader' through the lens of explorers Shackleton and Amundsen. While Shackleton's dramatic story captivates audiences, Amundsen's meticulous planning and authentic leadership provide deeper lessons in effective leadership. 42:55 The Challenge of Leadership in Media In this chapter, the conversation shifts to the media's portrayal of leadership, emphasizing how crises and scandals often overshadow the quiet, effective leaders. Martin and Bill reflect on the disparity between public admiration for dramatic leaders versus those who exemplify humility and competence. 46:26 A Global Perspective on Leadership Martin shares his insights on the political climate in Europe and how it resonates with the current events in the U.S. He discusses the resilience of democratic institutions and the importance of good leadership amidst rising concerns about political extremism. 50:01 Optimism in the Next Generation Ending on a hopeful note, Martin reflects on the optimism he sees in younger generations, highlighting their ability to dream big without the constraints of cynicism. This chapter underscores the importance of nurturing this optimism as a counterbalance to the challenges faced in today's world.
En 1914, Ernest Shackleton partió hacia la Antártida con la promesa de llevar a su tripulación a casa sana y salva, aun después de que su barco, el Endurance, fuera destruido por el hielo. A pesar del frío extremo, el hambre y la desesperanza, Shackleton no abandonó a ninguno. Dos años después, todos regresaron vivos. Su promesa, aunque parecía imposible, se cumplió. Pero hay una promesa aún más grande: la de Cristo. Él dijo que resucitaría al tercer día… ¡y lo hizo! Su tumba vacía es la prueba de que ninguna palabra suya cae al suelo. La muerte fue vencida, y con ella, todo lo que parecía final ahora es solo el comienzo. Tal vez hoy enfrentas una pérdida, una duda o una tumba emocional. Recuerda: el mismo Jesús que venció la muerte puede levantar tu esperanza. Porque el que prometió vida eterna… ¡Él vive! La Biblia dice en Juan 11:25: “Le dijo Jesús: Yo soy la resurrección y la vida; el que cree en mí, aunque esté muerto, vivirá” (RV1960).

"Suche Freiwillige für gefährliche Reise. Niedriger Lohn, bittere Kälte, lange Stunden in vollständiger Finsternis garantiert. Rückkehr ungewiss." Klingt wenig vielversprechend und doch handelt es sich um die erfolgreichste Stellenanzeige aller Zeiten, die Ernest Shackleton im Jahr 1907 aufgab. Gemeint war eine Reise in die Antarktis. Ein Abenteuer auf Leben und Tod.
What do the Royal Marines, Ernest Shackleton, and high performers today all understand about growth that most people miss? In this episode, I unpack the hidden power of environment. We'll explore how group standards shape personal performance, why morale becomes everything under pressure, and what it really means to grow in a culture of discipline, clarity, and shared purpose. If you're grinding alone and wondering why progress feels slow—this one's for you.
En 1914, Ernest Shackleton y su equipo intentaron cruzar la Antártida, pero su barco quedó atrapado en el hielo. Durante meses, la tripulación sobrevivió en condiciones extremas. Sin embargo, Shackleton nunca perdió la esperanza ni permitió que su equipo se desmoronara. Finalmente, después de una travesía imposible de más de 1,000 kilómetros en un bote pequeño, Shackleton logró conseguir ayuda y rescató a todos sin perder una sola vida.Lo impresionante de esta historia no fue solo la supervivencia, sino la capacidad de Shackleton de liderar con fe y determinación en la adversidad.En la Biblia, José fue traicionado por sus hermanos y vendido como esclavo, pero todo lo que sufrió lo preparó para gobernar Egipto. Moisés pasó 40 años en el desierto antes de guiar a Israel. Pablo fue azotado y encarcelado, pero sus cartas aún impactan a la iglesia hoy. Si estás enfrentando pruebas, recuerda que Dios usa la adversidad para prepararte. Lo que hoy parece un obstáculo, mañana será el testimonio que Dios usará para Su gloria. La biblia dice en Romanos 8:28: “Y sabemos que a los que aman a Dios, todas las cosas les ayudan a bien…” (RV1960)

Is it possible to succeed when you fail? Antarctic explorer Ernest Shackleton did just that, and so has modern adventurer and mountaineer Alison Levine, leader of the First American Women's Everest expedition, Levine has survived subzero temperatures, hurricane force winds, and sudden avalanches. She's had plenty of triumphs, but she's learned just as much, if not more, from her failures. https://www.amandaknox.com Bluesky: @amandaknox.com | @wisecracker.bsky.social IG: @amamaknox | @emceecarbon Free: My Search for Meaning Preorder Link: https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/amanda-knox/free/9781538770719/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Today, McKay talks all about action on the podcast, starting off the episode by recounting Ernest Shackleton's 1914 expedition to Antarctica. After two years of combatting ice, cold temperatures, and the ocean, Shackleton finally managed to save his team and bring them home. McKay attributes his unlikely success to his willingness to move and set his plans into action, and points out that many of us overthink far too much and are paralyzed by our thoughts. To overcome our overthinking, action is the best remedy - making moves, changing our thought processes, and cultivating what McKay calls our emotional homes are key to success.During the latter half of this episode, McKay introduces Larry Lemieux, an Olympic sailor who made the heroic decision to forfeit his pursuit of the gold medal to save his competitors drowning in the water. It was his quick action skills that made this move possible - he didn't overthink. Likewise, McKay draws this episode to conclusion by detailing Sarah Lift's decision to leave her abusive household at the age of 15. He says that her fast acting, like that of Lemieux, changed her life and led her down a path to emotional freedom and financial success. Listen in today as McKay demonstrates that, truly, “there is power in moving and keeping your focus on the next necessary part of your life's journey.”The Finer Details of This Episode:Ernest Shackleton's 1914 mission to Antarctica Why overthinking is a bad habit Why action assuages overthinkingThe importance of a healthy emotional homeLarry Lemieux's heroic move at the OlympicsSara Lift's decision to leave her abusive householdQuotes:“We let habitual thinking freeze us from time to time, and the way out of our situation, or to safety or success, just might be to move. Action is a powerful force, not only in our life, but in our minds.”“The problem with overthinking is it can become a habit, and soon we get hung up on relatively simple decisions. We worry excessively, our mind tends to go into overdrive, and we even begin to think about our thinking.”“Overthinking can prevent us from taking action by keeping us trapped in circular thoughts. When we overthink, we may be unable to separate facts and what we know for sure from the worries we keep telling ourselves.”“You can't start the next chapter of your life if you keep rereading your last one.”“Overthinking plagues many of us, and we can change the rumination going on in our life and our thinking by focusing on what's next.”“Stand guard at the door of your mind. Only build rooms for the people and technology that helps you direct your thinking.”Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen

What if the biggest obstacle in your life was… you? Bestselling author and personal development pioneer Gay Hendricks joins us to talk about The Big Leap, his game-changing book that introduced the world to the Upper Limit Problem — that sneaky, self-imposed ceiling on success and happiness. From overcoming hidden fears to expanding into what he calls your Zone of Genius, Gay breaks down the patterns that hold us back and how to break through them.We also reflect on our mutual friend Jim Selman, a luminary in transformational leadership, and how his legacy continues to inspire. With 35 books (and counting!) co-authored with his wife, Katie Hendricks, from their Ojai-based Hendricks Institute, Gay has spent a lifetime helping people push past self-sabotage and step into their fullest potential. Tune in for an insightful, uplifting, and occasionally mind-bending conversation that just might inspire your next big leap.Jim and I also talked about his childhood with a single mom in northern Florida in the 1950s, and how she overcame significant obstacles to become a well-respected journalist and mayor of their hometown. We also talked about his academic career and much more. We did not, however, talk about Ernest Shackleton's expeditions, the development of dimpling on golf balls or Robert Caro's magisterial account of Robert Moses, in "The Power Broker."You can learn more about Gay Hendricks and his and wife Katie's work at the Hendricks Institute: https://hendricks.com/

Pokémon GO: a visionary successLaunching Pokémon GO was a milestone in Mathieu's career. Despite starting with a small team of just 35 people, the game became a cultural phenomenon, achieving over a billion downloads and generating substantial revenue. Mathieu attributes this success to visionary leadership and close collaboration between engineering and business. “What makes the difference between visionaries and others,” he said, “is the ability to think big, even with a small team.”AI's role in luxury: blending creativity and technologyAt LVMH, Mathieu's focus is on applying AI across the product lifecycle—from conception to after-sales services. He shared an example of AI enhancing customer relationships: “Imagine a co-pilot for sales associates at Tiffany's, connecting past purchases and life events to suggest the perfect next product. This is where the algorithm becomes a creative enabler.” Such applications of AI underline the potential for blending personalization with luxury.Embracing emerging tech in the luxury sectorMathieu emphasized that innovation in luxury requires a delicate balance of tradition and technology. At LVMH, efforts include creating digital twins for products and combating counterfeiting with blockchain technology. The group also explores immersive experiences to elevate customer satisfaction in stores. “Luxury is about the invisible—the serotonin you feel when you buy a dream,” Mathieu explained, underscoring the subtle, emotional elements of high-end retail.Lessons in resilience and opennessReflecting on his career, Mathieu highlighted the importance of resilience, citing the story of Ernest Shackleton as an inspiration. He also championed the value of openness to new ideas and experiences, saying, “Being open to nature and innovation constantly drives me.” His advice to entrepreneurs and innovators?

If you haven't heard of Bryan Johnson or watched the new Netflix documentary about him, Don't Die: The Man Who Wants to Live Forever, Bryan is a person who has given his life—and his body—over to the science of longevity. That means that he has essentially turned himself into a human lab rat, undergoing hundreds of tests and studies on every human marker imaginable in order to discover the best ways to stop the process of human aging. What he's found is unconventional, to say the least: He eats dinner at 11 a.m., he has swapped blood with his 17-year-old son, and he measures his nighttime erection lengths—just to name a few of the hundreds of things that you probably have never heard of a person doing in the name of health and longevity. But it's not just that Bryan wants to reverse aging and live forever. He also thinks we're at the bleeding edge of a new kind of reality. He believes he's akin to Amelia Earhart or Ernest Shackleton, and that he's on the frontier of something big—something that will change everything about humanity as we know it. In that way, this conversation is not just about wacky exercise routines and unusual supplements. It's a philosophical discussion about the meaning and purpose of life, and what we're all doing here on this planet. Today on Honestly, Bryan Johnson tells us about why and how he's not going to die.

I discuss Ernest Shackleton's infamous Endurance Expedition during the Heroic Age of Antarctic Expedition
December 31, 2024Today's Reading: Luke 12:35-40Daily Lectionary: Isaiah 60:1-22; Luke 1:39-56“You also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.” (Luke 12:40)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.In 1914, Ernest Shackleton and 27 crewmembers left from Plymouth, England, on a ship named The Endurance. On January 18, 1915, after five months at sea, the ship became stuck in pack ice and was unable to move. Week after week, the crew lived in their stuck ship until the pressure from the moving ice finally began to crush the ship's hull. The crew salvaged what they could and set up shelters on the ice as their boat slowly disappeared into the frozen sea.Nearly four months after the ice had stopped the expedition, Shackleton decided their only chance for survival was to use the salvaged lifeboats to find help. After seven terrible days on the open sea, the men arrived on an uninhabited spit of rock called Elephant Island. Shackleton knew there was no chance of rescue from this remote island, so he selected five of his strongest men and announced that they would sail one of the lifeboats to South Georgia Island, where he knew they could get help. South Georgia Island was over 800 miles away.Two weeks after leaving his men behind, Shackleton reached South Georgia Island and began planning a rescue for the crew members left on Elephant Island. Finally, on August 30, 1916, – 19 months after their ship had become stuck and four months after their leader had left for help – Shackleton arrived at Elephant Island. When he reached his men, he was overjoyed that they were all alive, and he was amazed to find them all packed up and waiting. When Shackleton asked how they knew to be ready for his arrival, one of the crew members replied, “Sir, when you left, you said you would come back for us, so we never gave up hope. Each day, we packed up our sleeping bags and reminded each other, ‘Watch friends! The boss may be coming back today.' We were always ready for your return.”One of the reasons the “Shackleton” story is so amazing is that the readiness we see in the men on Elephant Island is so different from what we see in ourselves. We are impatient. We are pessimistic. We doubt. And yet, as we struggle with our sin, God knows. He knows who we are. He knows about our lack of patience and our pessimism and our doubt. He knows that we are not prepared, and that is why He sent His Son. Jesus came to make us ready, and He did it by taking on human flesh, and with it, He also took our selfishness, our doubt, and our impatience. He took these sins to the Cross and did all of this so that we would be forgiven and ready for His return.In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.Lord Jesus, thank you for making us ready for Your return through Your death and resurrection for us. -Rev.

The story behind "52 for the Journey": In 1914, explorer Ernest Shackleton aimed to be the first to traverse Antarctica on foot with a crew of 27 aboard the Endurance. However, the ship became trapped in ice, forcing Shackleton to abandon it while ensuring his men's safety. Faced with the dilemma of what to keep, he chose to tear out pages from the ship's Bible, highlighting the importance of deciding what is essential in uncertain times. Inspired by this, the journey of 52 for the Journey was created—a year-long exploration of faith through 52 curated Bible stories, one for each week. Each story includes stunning images and reflective questions to deepen understanding of God's vision for individuals and communities. The journey begins on December 1st, inviting participants to discover the connections between biblical stories and modern life.

The wreck of Endurance, the ship crewed by Ernest Shackleton and Irish seamen including Kerry's Tom Crean and Cork man Timothy McCarthy, was thought lost forever when it became trapped in pack ice and later sank in November 1915. More than a century later, the crew of Endurance22 achieved what was widely regarded as impossible - a successful attempt to locate the shipwreck. A new Disney+ documentary, 'Endurance', out this month, details the hunt for the wreckage, and Seán is joined by the documentary's Producer, Ruth Johnston, to discuss.Image: National Geographic

The story of Ernest Shackleton, and the loss of his ship, The Endurance, is history's greatest survival story. After nearly a year living on a ship stuck in Antarctic ice, the hull began to crack under the pressure. Shackleton ordered his men off the boat, making camp on the ice, as they watched the Endurance sink beneath the Weddell Sea… and that's just the beginning of the story. From managing negativity, to navigating stormy seas in a lifeboat, to a never-give-up attitude, Erneset Shackleton led his crew through a grueling 2 year ordeal, until every single man was rescued. This is the incredible true story of one of history's most aggressive men.
In this dramatic episode, Dan tells the incredible story of how Shackleton saved every single man on the fated Endurance expedition from perishing in Antarctica. In late 1914, the charismatic and brilliant explorer Ernest Shackleton led 27 men on a voyage to cross Antarctica from one side to the other. But what should have been a successful expedition turned into a two-year nightmare of hardship and catastrophe when their vessel the Endurance was crushed in the Weddell Sea pack-ice and sunk. Stranded with no ship, no contact with the outside world and limited supplies, it would be up to the men to find their own way back to civilisation.Do you have any questions for Dan after seeing the Endurance documentary on Disney+ or Nat Geo?

Kemi Badenoch is the first woman of colour to lead a major political party in the UK, after being elected as leader of the Conservative Party at the weekend. What do we know about her as a woman, and as a politician? What does this mean for women in the Tory party? Clare McDonnell speaks to Katy Balls, political editor of the Spectator, Ella Robertson McKay, former head of Conservative Young Women, and Tory peer Baroness Kate Fall.The Women's 100 metre Olympic champion Julien Alfred joins Clare in the studio. Her gold medal in Paris was the first time St Lucia had won an Olympic medal. She discusses what it took to become a champion and also having a national day named after her. The author Eliza Clark is publishing a new collection of short stories: She's Always Hungry. She joins Clare to talk about why she wanted to cover topics from matriarchal societies to body image, and how she thinks female authors deserve more respect.Natalie Hewit spent two months in Antarctica directing and producing on the documentary film Endurance, about Ernest Shackleton's expedition. It was a labour of love, and features restored footage and AI-recreated voices of the original crew in 1914, as well as chronicling the discovery in 2022 of Shackleton's ship, 3000 metres down in the icy waters of the Weddell Sea. Presenter: Clare McDonnell Producer: Lottie Garton
In this episode of No Script No Problem, BAFTA-nominated filmmaker NATALIE HEWIT joins the show to talk about her new epic Nat Geo documentary, "ENDURANCE," which deftly chronicles the inspiring stories of two landmark expeditions in Antarctica - the original by Ernest Shackleton in 1914 and the modern-day search for his sunken ship. Natalie shares some riveting details of what it was like to be on the boat with the crew searching for the shipwreck Endurance while filming in below freezing temperatures. She also describes some of the groundbreaking AI technology they used to bring Shackleton's voice into the film. If you love adventure and defying the odds, this is a documentary you will love. You can watch it on Nat Geo, Disney + and Hulu. Listen to my interview with Natalie anywhere you get podcasts and watch it on YouTube.

In this episode of The Happiness Practices, Phil Gerbyshak sits down with Jack Craven, author of The Aliveness Mindset, to explore what it truly means to live a life of passion, purpose, and joy. They delve into the seven core mindsets that form the foundation of Jack's philosophy and discuss practical steps to cultivate a more fulfilling life. Jack shares personal stories of transformation, actionable strategies for embracing aliveness, and how to overcome common obstacles like fear, perfectionism, and the inner critic.Key Takeaways:* Aliveness Mindset Defined:* Jack describes the Aliveness Mindset as a holistic approach to living "all in." This mindset is about being fully committed to what matters most and aligning personal, professional, and community priorities with a sense of purpose and joy.* The Importance of Ownership:* Jack opens up about his journey toward ownership, beginning with a personal story of burnout while running a family business. He discusses the powerful shift that came when he started taking responsibility for his own happiness, leading to greater personal freedom and fulfillment.* Confronting the Inner Critic:* Both Jack and Phil talk about the pervasive nature of the inner critic and the power of shifting toward an "inner coach." Jack shares techniques to develop a kinder, more supportive internal dialogue that can be a game-changer in both personal and professional settings.* Seven Core Mindsets of Aliveness:* Jack details the seven mindsets that form the basis of his philosophy: Ownership, Openness, Awareness, Authenticity, Courage, Tenacity, and Love.* Ownership: Taking full responsibility for one's life and outcomes.* Openness: Approaching life with curiosity and an open heart.* Awareness: The foundation of change, enabling a clearer understanding of patterns, behaviors, and emotions.* Authenticity: Living true to oneself without imposing judgment on others.* Courage: Embracing challenges head-on and learning from them.* Tenacity: The resilience needed to push through difficulties and setbacks.* Love: Showing love not just through words, but by being present and attentive to others.* The Power of Self-Talk:* Jack emphasizes how critical self-talk is for personal growth and happiness. He encourages listeners to replace negative self-talk with affirmations, modeled after how one's best mentors would speak. This reframing helps build confidence and resilience.* Anchoring Mindsets for Daily Practice:* Jack shares his "anchoring mindsets"—traits he embodies daily: play, connect, learn, and impact. He explains how anchoring these traits helps cultivate consistent aliveness.* Strategies for Overcoming Fear and Building Courage:* Jack discusses how he draws inspiration from courageous individuals throughout history, such as Ernest Shackleton, and how witnessing others' bravery can help reframe personal fears into more manageable challenges.* Living Authentically:* Jack and Phil explore what it means to be truly authentic without being overbearing.

Dan charts the life, successes and failures of the charismatic and chaotic Antarctic explorer Ernest Shackleton. In late 1914, Shackleton led 27 men on a voyage to cross the Antarctic. But what should have been a successful expedition turned into a two-year nightmare of hardship and catastrophe when their vessel the Endurance was crushed in the Weddell Sea pack-ice and sunk. In a miraculous feat of leadership, Shackleton saved the life of every single man on board.But while he was revered by his crews, others in government and the upper echelons of British society were dubious of Shackleton, to them he was a cowboy who ignored the rules and was cavalier with the money of others. But was his audacious attitude the root of his success as an explorer?Written by Dan Snow, produced by Mariana Des Forges and edited by Dougal Patmore.This is the first episode in our Endurance season running through October & November to celebrate the release of the Endurance feature documentary on Disney+, Hulu and Nat Geo.For more Shackleton and Endurance content from History Hit, as well as AD-FREE content, sign up HERE for 50% off for 3 months using code ‘DANSNOW'.We'd love to hear from you - what do you want to hear an episode on?

Elliot poem, The Waste Land. The poem was inspired by the real-life experience of Ernest Shackleton — an Irish explorer who went on a near-death expedition in Antarctica in 1916. After their ship got trapped in ice, he and two other members of his crew made a 36-hour long trek across the Arctic, over mountains and glaciers, to a whaling station. During that time, several members of his three-man team — Ernest included — kept feeling like there was a fourth man alongside them. T.S. Elliot wrote this stanza inspired by that phenomenon: What is the cause of the third man syndrome? No one really knows what causes third man syndrome. Many people claim it is a hallucination or coping mechanism triggered by extreme stress while others believe it is help given by a guardian angel. What is an example of the third man phenomenon? Examples in the book The Third Man Factor by John Geiger include a solo sailor who believed an unseen companion steered his ship through a storm, a woman in a collapsed building who reported a monk gave her an apple, a solo mountaineer who believed he was roped to someone else and thus descended a peak cautiously. What is the third man syndrome in Christianity? There is a phenomenon that many people who found themselves in survival situations have experienced. The phenomenon? It's something referred to as the "third man factor", where a person finds that even though they are physically alone, they feel a presence by their side. A new study reveals that these sorts of hallucinations -- sometimes called ``third man syndrome'' -- are more mysterious than scientists previously thought, since the visions cannot be fully explained as a side effect of altitude sickness or the brain swelling that frequently accompanies it. What is the third man syndrome in car accidents? ``Third Man Syndrome'' is the phenomenon in which people hear, see, or feel the presence of an additional person who isn't actually there comforting, supporting, or saving their lives during emergency situations. Stories of the internet. When my husband was in his 20s, he fell asleep while driving and crashed into a telephone pole. He was hurt and remembered a teenage kid knocking on his window and telling him he called the police and not to get out of the car because there were live wires everywhere. When my husband was finally rescued, there was no sign of the kid. The police said that no one had called them — they just came because the power was out. Not only that, but they said there was no way anyone could have gotten close to the car on account of the wires, and if my husband had tried to get out of the car, they probably would have probably killed him. My husband so vividly remembers the kid, he believes he was real, but his mom believes it was his guardian angel." —Anonymous "I was dancing with my friend at a foam party, which is where they hang a machine from the ceiling that dumps TONS of bubbles onto the dance floor. The foam was super deep under the machine and the floor was super slippery because of the soapy bubbles. My friend slipped into the foam and I fell down to the floor, under the bubbles with her. When I tried to breathe, it was like I was drowning — the foam filled my lungs like water. I couldn't open my eyes, my feet and hands kept slipping so I couldn't stand up, and no one could hear us choking and screaming over the music. I was slipping all over on the floor holding onto my friend's shirt. Just as I thought we were going to drown in the bubbles, someone pulled us up. It was as though we'd been lifted or pushed, because there was no way anyone could have grabbed me by the arm. I was way too slippery — Heather and I couldn't even hold hands, our skin was so slick. I was lucky just to hang onto her shirt." "We came out of the bubbles, choking and gasping, covered in soap, clinging on to each other. When I wiped my eyes clear, there was no one there except the other people dancing around us. They were all oblivious to us, though — they didn't even know we had fallen and no one had seen anyone pull us out nor did anyone ask us if we were OK! Needless to say, I never went to a foam party again." —Anonymous Discover the world of the supernatural with the 222 Paranormal Podcast, your ultimate source for spine-chilling tales and expert insights into the unknown.
