    This was so good. It transcended: time, fact, fiction, mystery, movies, documentaries, race, survival, legendary historical figures. Well done! I don’t believe I’ve seen anything like it.

    I am absolutely fascinated by the history of Arctic exploration and the lost expedition of Sir John, Captains Crozier, Fitzjames and all the other 126 men of the Erebus and Terror.
    I have read everything I can on the subject. I still hope for the day when the diaries and accounts of those men are found, which can shed light on the remaining mysteries.
    One thing has always bothered me about this tragedy. It was common for Royal Navy ships on exploration to leave frequent messages on stone cairns, at sea or with other ships, perhaps whalers.
    It is very intriguing that only the 2 messages left at Victory Point have been found, the first signed by Lieutenant Gore, and later, on the same paper, the information added by Crozier and Fitzjames.
    Despite everything we know, there is still much to be learned before we understand what really happened to those 129 men.
    Thank you for sharing this excellent documentary.

    fascinating. Feeling ashamed that the British then and even in part now don't acknowledge the truth and keep on being offensive, or should I say, savage, while pretending to be oh so well mannered. Thanks to John Walker and others for making a true effort to make up by deeds and not just reluctant words from a distance.

    My theory is that when franklin left greenland to head towards the northwest passage, his ship got stuck in the ice since the notes on victory point indicate that the ships were stuck in the ice, and that possibly the canned food they ate was improperly sealed and were soldiered with lead, and that the bodies found on beachy island contained high lead dosages which would have weaken the immune system and fueled the chances of getting deceases like respiratory and breathing infections, tuberculosis, and also other things from tainted canned food.
    Then around 1848, the crew decided to abandon one of the ships after a few officers including franklin passed away and sent the other ship to search for help, after the crew abandoned the ships, they used their row boats to carry their supplies and headed south in hopes to make it to a fort or civilization, but their supplies would have been running low by that point since they didn't think they were going to be frozen in ice. Then along the way south, the crew would have had been exposed to the freezing conditions of the arctic and would have had only simple canvas tents and limited fuel for fire, but they could have been able to find small game to eat as by this point it was possible that by this point their rations would have started to spoil since stuff like bottled lemon juice would have started to lose it's effectiveness over time, which could lead to scurvy. Now the crew who were ill, starving, and frostbitten eventually made contact with the inuit as they said that they found " a group of white men" who were starving and heading south, the inuit also reported that bthey saw the ships sank slowly over time due to the ice and that one of the ships, likely Erebus due to the shallow waters it was found in, was seen having one of it's masts sticking out of the ice. Later on the Inuit would find abandoned camps with body parts that were chopped or cooked up for cannibalism and equipment salvaged from the ships, and later Schwatka’s expedition found some of these sites with the help of the Inuit. But likely after the rations spoiled or ran out, the crew would have resorted to cannibalism as it's been a common thing with people in dire situations with low to none food. The crew would have probably started with the dead, but judging from the cut marks on the hands, the crew likely started to turn on each other even if they were christian or not, but later on forensics showed the cut marks on the bones proving either cannibalism or attacks, but from what ive gathered, the inuits stories were consistent and seemed to be proven correct, although it could be always be a different situation but we will never know.
    But I think that the Inuit man in this documentary proves a point that the crew likely didn't find the northwest passage since there isn't any proof, and that accusing the inuit of murdering Franklins men isn't fair since there is more proof and likeliness of cannibalism is at play because the inuit has no reason to attack the crew, and attacking them would likely lead to being exiled from their community like that inuit man said. And trying to put the blame of the men of the expedition on the Inuit because Franklins men were christian and the inuit were 'savages' and 'indulged themselves' is absolute rubbish, and it is hard to rationalize such an unthinkable act, but it's another thing to put the blame on another group and slander them, This is just boldness and arrogance to protect the reputation of rich British people, and not taking the blame and excepting the fact that the expedition was ill equipped and ended in failure.
    Overall i'm not saying that this is exactly what happened on the expedition, but i'm sure that in the future there will be more evidence of what happened, and that all people who study this subject should be open to other theories of what happened and not be one sided or biased on certain beliefs.

      Do you think the cut marks could have come from chopping frozen flesh? It takes a good chop to get a piece of frozen meat. Afaik, the traditional inuit tools were made of wood and bone, rarely stone and malleable steel, if they were lucky. Wood wouldn't have left a clean cut, nor would bone it'd shatter. Ernest Coleman speaks about an open-mind but does not have one himself. Hrm curiouser and curiouser

      The distillation towers used were lead-lined, and when salt water was run through them, they would add more lead to their drinking water. Scurvy, Tuberculosis Lead Poisoning and Botchulism all added to their end.

      The Inuit gentleman ether didn’t understand the science or cared to .
      All he has is oral history passed down , which if you understand their language , is very patchy , from my understanding their language is very limited to the passing down certain details .
      There is another documentary on UA-cam that explains this called frozen in ice .

    I firmly believe in what the Inuit gentleman had to say & the living history that has been handed down through
    the years. The British are still just as bigoted & closed minded as they were back at the time, I find the ex-RN Officer
    to have been very insultive & biased in his points of view & owes the Inuit peoples an apology.
    The Inuit people at the time traveled in small mostly family sized groups & used mostly handmade hunting weapons,
    if they did come upon even 20 of Franklins men who were armed with firearms etc they would have been on the
    losing side of any conflicts. My final thoughts on the discovery of a northwest passage is that the Franklin expedition
    did not discover the passage at all, they did not emerge on the west coast but perished halfway through a questionable
    channel. It is confounding how the British still bang on about his great achievement, they clearly dont have any modern
    maps & have misplaced their geography books as well.

Pushy Lady F. wasn't she, before, guilty afterwards? Dan weaved a fine story in his book from what was known fact and the TV series was, whilst a departure, very effective and lead me to read the book.
