Andrée and The Arctic Balloon Expedition (Ends of the Earth V)","description":"<p>In the aftermath of Franklin&apos;s Lost Expedition, further glory in arctic and antarctic exploration lay at the poles. One man&apos;s audacious attempt to seek this glory would involve a mode of transportation rarely used–and never in such a manner as he had planned. This is the story of S.A. Andrée&apos;s Balloon Expedition.  <br/><em><br/>Ends of the Earth </em>explores the increasingly vain efforts taken by those hoping to conquer the earth&apos;s poles. This multi-part series follows those who faced unbearable weather conditions, violent seas, and the least hospitable lands imaginable. </p><p>This episode of Grisly History is hosted by Graham Parker and produced by Michael Ruiz.<br/><br/>Theme music composed by Michael Ruiz.
