Captain Scott's ill-fated journey to the Antarctic Pole in 1911 is part triumph, part tragedy - an epic tale of heroic endeavor which has inspired books and films over the generations. Despite the simple outline of the story, Scott and his fellow explorers emerge as richly varied characters, brought to life by the diarist's skill as a story-teller. Scott's journal reaches its moving and dramatic crescendo when the explorers reach the Pole, only to discover that the Norwegian, Amundsen, has beaten them to it by many weeks.

Best-selling author Bear Grylls has survived a free-fall parachute accident that left him with a broken back, possibly unable to walk again; falling down a mountain in the Rockies, severing a finger in the Vietnam jungle, a broken shoulder in Antarctica. He passed the gruelling training to join the SAS, crossed the North Atlantic in an open inflatable boat, and held the highest ever open-air formal dinner party, in a balloon at 25,000 feet.

When a young pilot’s plane crashed on a clear December afternoon, everything she was and knew fractured in an instant. What followed was a fight not just for survival, but for identity, purpose, and the strength to begin again. CRASHED takes you inside the moments when time stood still: the chaos of impact, the courage of the rescuers who refused to give up, and the long, uncertain road back to life. For anyone who has faced an unexpected fall, CRASHED is a powerful reminder that what’s shattered can be rebuilt. Sometimes, survival is only the beginning.
