Adventurer Jamie Douglas-Hamilton says his latest rowing challenge left him in the worst pain he has ever felt.
BBC Scotland, Edinburgh and East reporter
They managed 407 miles in six days before the strong winds and the risk of frostbite led them to end the challenge early. The trip was originally planned for December 2021 but had to be postponed as Jamie discovered he had a heart condition that he believes would have killed him on the journey. They had originally planned to carry on another 500 miles to South Georgia Island but the conditions were too tough.
"Our legs would sometimes shake uncontrollably and then this moved to our torso and came close to hypothermia."Despite ending the challenge early the crew did achieve eight world records including the longest distance rowed on the Southern Ocean.
