Abandoned in the Arctic: Two Men Fight for Survival

In 1910, Danish explorer Ejnar Mikkelsen and engineer Iver Iversen set out on a desperate Arctic rescue mission—to recover the lost records of the ill-fated Denmark Expedition. But when their ship, the Alabama, was crushed by ice and the rest of the crew vanished, the two men were left stranded—alone, above the Arctic Circle.What followed was a 28-month fight for survival in one of the harshest places on Earth. Living in a half-buried hut made from wreckage, surviving on seal meat, foxes, and ingenuity, Mikkelsen and Iversen faced madness, starvation, and total isolation—all while clinging to the hope that someone might come.This is the true story of how they endured—forgotten and nearly consumed by the Arctic itself.
