"Only 11% of the ice melted" So what you're saying is they coulda driven all the way to the southern tip of Africa and taken a boat to the south pole and dropped it off?
Some guy: “My insulation material surely gets the job done” Radio Luxemburg: “Oh shit retract the offer! We forgot to put ‘No insulation’ rule on it!” What a pathetic move😂
"Radio Luxembourg heard about Natvik's ambitions and quickly retracted their offer" Cowards. All bark and no bite. They couldn't put their money where their mouths were.
get over your butthurt. People had honor in those days, no one from Norway did any whining. It was a poorly thought through proposal, and people simply chuckled.
Are you delusional? They only laid the challenge because it seemed impossible and the amount of money was ridiculous. In 1959 Luxembourg was a country of 300k people, a $48 mil prize is so over the top that anyone with half a brain realised that it wasn't a serious challenge but that clearly doesn't include you
Fun Fact: Back in imperial China, emperors and the riches would cut and store ice during the winter in their underground cellar, and later take out for all kind of use in summer. sometimes these ice will be moved from the northern part of China to the warmer southern part.
If you like this story you should watch "Dubai Road Express Film" on youtube its a documentary about Norwegian truck drivers that drove from norway to dubai in 1976.
They withdrew the challenge before it even got started. In those situations its pretty much no harm no foul. It would've been a different story if they had cancelled it when the crew was in Africa or something.
@@Tinil0 They cancelled once they found out someone would actually take the challenge. thats like running a lottery and when the winner comes to claim the prize you cancel the whole thing.

That's absolutely disgusting. I can't imagine making a challenge offering large sums of money for completion for your publicity then retract the offer just because someone accepts the challenge.
You know what’s weird about that? That shrine is a blessing shrine with no puzzle, which are used when the puzzle is accessing the shrine itself (“by entering you have already proved yourself worthy”). But the puzzle this time was a Gerudo who just happened to be blocking the pedestal. So either the monk was too lazy to create a puzzle or he knew that some alcoholic lady would force Link to do a fetch quest and make it unnecessarily difficult to open the shrine.
This story reminds me of the Paul Theroux novel "The Mosquito Coast", in which a crazy inventor from New England pulls up stakes and moves his family to a desolate part of the African coast. He has a dream of introducing ice to African natives far inland. The guy knows how to build a refrigeration plant, which he accomplishes in the jungle. (basically, anyone can build these). He manufactures a large block of ice, wraps it in reeds, and sets off overland with some bearers, to deliver the ice to a remote village, but by the time that the party arrives, the ice block has melted to the size of a grapefruit. The book was made into a movie.
This was the comment I was looking for. If I recall correctly by the time he made it there was only a small sliver of ice left that melted in his hands when he tried to show it to the residents of the remote village. The book was made into a movie starring Harrison Ford. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mosquito_Coast
And I'm literally talking to you- I'm actually talking to someone who lives somewhat near that glacier! If someone wants to talk to me, they will be literally talking to someone who is only 1° removed from someone who lives somewhat near that glacier.
