The Franklin Expedition-They Sought The Northwest Passage For Great Britain
They got iced in way up in North Canada, their ships were crushed by ice. Fortunately the had just discovered canning before the expedition so there was food, unfortunately they used lead to seal the cans and it is speculated that the lead in the food drove the stranded explorers insane and they were eating those that succombed to the weather before they all perished.

They found where they were stranded and some relics from their demise.

Hardly a man or men is now alive.
