Reply to comment by NotGalenNorAnsel in TIL, there was a Cocaine-infused tablet called “Forced March” taken on the North Pole Expedition by Shackleton. As label explains: “Allays hunger and prolongs the power of endurance.” by endofthen1ght
Correct. They even took his weapons and food from him. He supposedly lived by eating a raw jay, hunting it by swinging his ski at it. He also apparently ran into a trapped soviet base that had been abandoned and shredded his foot. However, Aimo Koivunen himself is the only source on this, and well, he was zooted like a motherfucker.
