Robert Falcon Scott's doomed attempt to be the first to reach the South Pole became a race against his Norwegian rival Roald Amundsen.

When Scott and his exhausted men arrived at the Pole, Amundsen's flag was already in place, and before Scott and his team lay only starvation and death on the return trip.

Scott had been hand-picked at the early age of nineteen as a man suitable to lead a British polar exploration. On his fateful second journey, Scott made decisions which involved taking great risks, and these still cause controversy today.
