Paul Sinha looks at the some of the heroic pioneers in the field in exploration, and recounts how they met implausibly stupid deaths.
From the mighty warrior who was killed by a dead man, to the botanist killed by cattle and the man famous for something he didn't do (having been dismembered before he could do it) - this is a show best listened to as you sit safely in a comfy chair, not on the move.
This is the series that uncovers the fascinating stories that we've forgotten in our onward march of progress.
Written and performed by Paul Sinha.
Producer: Ed Morrish
