Christmas brings to mind the North Pole and Santa's sweatshop workshop. That, through a fairly convoluted path, brings us to Hubert Wilkins' 1931 attempt to reach the North Pole via a WWI submarine. The above video documents his expedition. It had a lot of problems and didn't succeed, but he did manage to bring his ship and crew back to Norway. It's a very interesting story.
