Jarle Andhøy was not content within modern A-4 frames. Already at the age of 15, he longed for adventure and became the youngest person ever to sail alone from Norway around Cape Horn. Through the young man's experiences, the groundbreaking journey aboard "Berserk" to Antarctica is followed. The story of the solo sailor who took on board two strangers at the end of the world and braved the elements in a small sailboat attracted great international attention. This book deals with the details of Jarle Andhøy's first steps as an adventurer, the dangerous journey, mutiny, coal sailing, hurricane in the Southern Ocean and finally the shipwreck in Moby Dick's realm in 2001.
The story is the background to the award-winning film "Berserk in Antarctica", which was shown on the National Geographic Society, BBC and Discovery. The best images are collected in this new release with more details about the spectacular journey, which despite all warnings and through arduous experiences was realized.
Jarle Andhøy made an uncompromising decision early on where one sacrifices everything to achieve something, as in the "Berserker's" ruthless fight for survival, and set out with a conscious attitude that his life's dream could result in "All or Nothing". He took the plunge. And named his life's dream "Berserk".
