Spanish adventure athlete Antonio de la Rosa attempted to row alone through the roughest seas on the planet to Antarctica. Very little went according to plan. Icy waves and Antarctic winds up to 120km/h kept Spanish adventure athlete Antonio de la Rosa's 7m rowboat listed over to port for days on end. Departing Cape Horn, the southernmost point of South America, on 7 January 2023, de la Rosa rowed south towards Elephant Island, 903km away in the Antarctic archipelago. He relied on a climbing harness to keep him from falling out of the boat as rough seas tossed him around like a cork.
