Is This The Greatest Survival Story You've Never Heard?

Thank you for watching! Ada Blackjack was an Inupiat woman from Alaska who became famous for surviving a harsh Arctic expedition in the 1920s. In 1921, she joined a group of explorers traveling to Wrangel Island as a seamstress. When resupply ships failed to arrive, conditions worsened. The four male explorers eventually set out across the ice for help and never returned. Left alone with a sick companion who later died, Ada survived for months by learning to hunt, trap, and endure the extreme cold. In 1923, she was rescued alongside the expeditions cat, Victoria - the pair being the only survivors. Links you may be interested in...
