Deaf travelling to South Pole

That's right. You "heard" me.

A Deaf gentleman, Ian Berry, have already reached the North Pole and now will join a team of 4 in an attempt to reach the South Pole. No one ever has done it in the history of mankind.

"The expedition to the South Pole is part of Ian's mission to reach both Poles as an ambassador for the National Deaf Children's Society (NDCS), a charity which transforms lives of deaf children and deaf young people in the UK" http://www.crawleyobserver.co.uk/news/Deaf-Ian-on-daring-polar.5904003.jp

One thing for sure, it'll be a World Guinness Record!

I applaud Ian Berry, an IT specialist, for his efforts and for being a role model. He is a true embodiment of a quote that is well-known throughout the Deaf communities in the world.

 "We DEAFinitely can do anything except hear." 


So let me ask you...... What is next?????
