Amerikalı tarixdə ilk dəfə olaraq Antarktidanı təkbaşına keçdi - FOTO

Amerikalı ekstremal idmançı tarixdə ilk dəfə olaraq təkbaşına Antarktidada səyahət edib.

Oxu.Az xəbər verir ki, bu haqda “The Guardian” məlumat yayıb.

Qeyd olunur ki, Portlenddən olan 33 yaşlı Kolin O’Bredi təhlükəli ekspedisiyaya noyabrın 3-də başlayıb. Dekabrın 26-sı isə amerikalı səyahətini başa vurub. O, heç kimin yardımı olmadan qütb qitəsini 54 günə keçib. Dostları, ailəsi və sevənləri Kolinin 1500 kilometlik səyahətini internet üzərindən izləyiblər.  

“Mən bunu etdim!”, – deyə K.O’Bredi ailəsi ilə telefonla danışarkən söyləyib.

“Son 32 saat həyatım boyu ən çətin saatlar olsa da, həqiqəti söyləsəm, onlar mənə indiyə qədər hiss etdiyim ən gözəl hissləri yaşadıblar”, - deyə səyahətçi “Instagram”da bildirib. O qeyd edib ki, son 129 kilometri dayanmadan sutka ərzində qət edib.

Day 49: PEACEFUL WARRIOR. When I was 9 years old, my Mom read aloud to me the book The Way of the Peaceful Warrior by Dan Millman @danmillmanpw . It was a seminal moment for me that continues to have deep ripple effects on my life today. I woke up to the wind storm still hammering my tent, but the peaceful warrior that lives inside of me was also awakened. Immediately as I opened my eyes and unzipped my sleeping bag, a deep strength overcame me and I knew today would be special, despite the constant 40mph wind gusts and -25 temperature. I tapped into one of the deepest flow states of my life for the next 13 hours and made my furthest distance of the entire expedition. 33.1 miles!! It’s amazing tapping into this deep inner peace and strength, but let me be clear; I am not unique in this ability. We all have reservoirs of untapped potential and our bodies and spirits are capable of so much more than lies on the surface. Believe that the next time you need more strength than you think you have, it’s inside of you. I promise. #TheImpossibleFirst #letsbepossibletogether

Day 41: I’VE GOT THE WHOLE WORLD IN MY HANDS!! Man trying to hold up the weight of the entire world from the bottom is quite heavy 😉. Still riding high from my time at the South Pole yesterday. This is the “true geographic pole” whereas the photo from yesterday was taken at the ceremonial pole with all the flags of the signatory Antarctica treaty countries. You see the South Pole station is constantly moving around on the glacial ice here. So every year the location of the Pole has to be remeasured and the sign is moved. It moves about 30 ft per year, but they don’t move the ceremonial pole, just this sign. They are only about a five minute walk from each other, but of course you’ve got to celebrate and take pictures at both places. Another solid day today, adding 18 more miles to the bank and another day closer to reaching the other side of the continent. #TheImpossibleFirst #BePossible

Day 54: FINISH LINE!!! I did it! The Impossible First ✅. 32 hours and 30 minutes after leaving my last camp early Christmas morning, I covered the remaining ~80 miles in one continuous “Antarctica Ultramarathon” push to the finish line. The wooden post in the background of this picture marks the edge of the Ross Ice Shelf, where Antarctica’s land mass ends and the sea ice begins. As I pulled my sled over this invisible line, I accomplished my goal: to become the first person in history to traverse the continent of Antarctica coast to coast solo, unsupported and unaided. While the last 32 hours were some of the most challenging hours of my life, they have quite honestly been some of the best moments I have ever experienced. I was locked in a deep flow state the entire time, equally focused on the end goal, while allowing my mind to recount the profound lessons of this journey. I’m delirious writing this as I haven’t slept yet. There is so much to process and integrate and there will be many more posts to acknowledge the incredible group of people who supported this project. But for now, I want to simply recognize my #1 who I, of course, called immediately upon finishing. I burst into tears making this call. I was never alone out there. @jennabesaw you walked every step with me and guided me with your courage and strength. WE DID IT!! We turned our dream into reality and proved that The Impossible First is indeed possible. “It always seems impossible until it’s done.” - Nelson Mandela. #TheImpossibleFirst #BePossible
