In 1914, Anglo-Irish explorer Ernest Shackleton led an expedition to the South Pole with the intent of traversing the Antarctic continent. Unfortunately, his ship was crushed by the intense pressure of the ice, and he and his men were forced to find a suitable means of entertainment for the duration of the Antarctic winter. They accordingly ventured to the South Pole on foot, formed a ring around it, and proceeded to anally penetrate each other. All 56 gentlemen formed a complete circle to ensure that no one was left out of the sport.
