I don't think there is.
It was a remarkable feat. The fact they all survived is almost beyond belief, and testament to what an incredible leader of men shackleton was.
Iron men in wooden boats.

Tbh I couldn't have pulled it off, and my PL total used to be over 500kg/1100lbs.

>Hall narrowly survived after his ascent of Mount Everest in 2006. He was left for dead at an altitude of 8700m while descending from the summit on 25 May 2006.[7] He had fallen ill from a form of altitude sickness, probably cerebral edema, that caused him to hallucinate and become confused. According to reports, Hall's Sherpa guides attempted to rescue him for hours. However, as night began to fall their oxygen supplies diminished and snow blindness set in. Expedition leader Alexander Abramov eventually ordered the guides to leave the apparently dead Hall on the mountain and return to camp. A statement was later released announcing his death to his friends and family.[8]
>However, the next morning, 12 hours later, Hall was found still alive by a team making a summit attempt. The team consisted of team leader Daniel Mazur (U.S.), Andrew Brash (Canada), Myles Osborne (UK) and Jangbu Sherpa (Nepal). Osborne described the scene just below the Second Step:
>"Sitting to our left, about two feet from a 10,000 foot drop, was a man. Not dead, not sleeping, but sitting cross legged, in the process of changing his shirt. He had his down suit unzipped to the waist, his arms out of the sleeves, was wearing no hat, no gloves, no sunglasses, had no oxygen mask, regulator, ice axe, oxygen, no sleeping bag, no mattress, no food nor water bottle. 'I imagine you're surprised to see me here', he said. Now, this was a moment of total disbelief to us all. Here was a gentleman, apparently lucid, who had spent the night without oxygen at 8600m, without proper equipment and barely clothed. And ALIVE."

>>It was May 2006, and Hall had just survived a night alone at more than 28,000ft, without oxygen or protective clothing. He had resolved, he explained later, that "I can't die, because I'm going back to my family. I wasn't going to let it happen; I just had to stay alive".

he was fantastic.
anyone capable of taking accurate sextant readings from mercury while on a roller coaster ride in the southern ocean is top tier.
it was shackleton's show though, and he brought EVERYONE home.

Yup i agree. Another good survival story is the one about Sir John Franklin trying to find the northwest passage overland in the canadian arctic. Shit goes so bad its funny. A true comedy off errors that ends with the hero eating his boots. Theres also some cannibalism. It my fav arctic story. But they were fuckups.
