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.

PATHI'm amazed that all our well travelled friends have'nt mentioned PATH - the Greyhound terminal in New York.
PATH stands for pathologically abnormal's temporary home. I've done a bit of wandering and frankly it's the single most terrifying place that I've ever encountered.
It's left me with an indelible impression that all Greyhound journeys must begin or end with a maniac declaiming that their best friend is an empty McDonalds bag.
Also - I hold a current UK PCV (bus driver's) license. Everyone is quite correct. Bus drivers are mighty tw*ts.
