How would you do?
How do you think would have done if you were a member of the crew? How about if you had been in Shackleton's shoes? Would you have handled it well?

I don't think anyone can know how they will act in a stressful and life-on-the-line situation but Shackleton had previous experience which helped him (as did many members of his crew)and he was able to display courage and be forceful and strong in this extraordinary situation. His men looked up to him and had faith in him that he would do the right thing. I don't know how they endured the tremendous cold and freezing conditions and the wet and eating the things they had to survive on. I have ran in really COLD situations and could not wait to get home or finish a really cold marathon I ran a few years ago...so I thought of those times as I read and was amazed that they could keep going!
I agree with you mom- I don't know if anyone knows how they would react until they are in the situation.
I would hope that I could handle myself well but I don't know that I would.
