He's a daft bat and very attention-seeking. Good luck to him all the same. I wonder who is sponsoring him.

I agree, Greatnan. When I saw the report on TV last night I thought, Why?? confused

I think he's got that 'I may be some time' feeling sad

He is 68 and has had multiple health problems. He said he needed to earn a living! Will anything be accomplished by this, other than another book?

Reckless Ranulph is planning to walk across Antarctica, in the winter - constant darkness, several tens of degrees below freezing - you know the kind of thing.
Is this an admirable venture for someone in his late 60s or is he bloody daft so-and-so that cannot accept that this is probably a daft thing to do at his age, and may endanger the lives of others if he has to be rescued?
