he did more than climb , apart from being an ex sas he also did the first unsurported crossing of antarctic that is to say carring all your own gear food etc from one side to the next pulling a sled which was like as he said pulling a bath tub with 3 grown men in it across sand (except its 40 below).

This posh wanker shot a Polar bear through the ankle, he claims now it was in the toe adn it wans't limping. Why do we need toffs like this wasting time, money and risking lives and destroying the environment, what is so good about him? Die soon old man.

tomme1981. You don't need to be posh to run 7 marathons in 7 days like Fiennes did 4 months after a heart attack.

i am not tallking about his given reasons why, but what are the acual reasons. i climb because it is fun to me,.

i do and am stil waiting for relevenet results. also in reply to previous comments i find sir fiennnes a bit of a trophy bagger, he seems to have conducted most of his expiditions especially climbing ones in expansion of his reputation and fame ( i appreciate his charitable work ) because they are targets of the the everyday man, and with excellent funding/guiding can be achieved at relative ease(without such fame unnabtainable) i only draw this conclusion through reading his biography.own fault
