Source: genius.com In 1910, Roald Amundsen had set sail towards the North Pole and hardly had the poor man started, that Robert Peary’s success came to his ears. He then set sail towards south and in October, 1911 set off for the South Pole from his base set in Antarctica. Finally after a very hard and hazardous journey, it was on 14th December that he reached the estimated position. Amundsen was the first one to reach both North and South poles and is specially remembered for his courage and determination in completing the Antarctic exploration.
