Afternoon all. Jenny here with some amazing stuff coming up including:

:00:00.:00:12.

it feels fantastic. The record-breaking schoolboy on

:00:13.:00:16.

reaching the South Pole. Why you will have to wait even longer to see

:00:17.:00:25.

Batman and Superman join forces. Let's start then with the

:00:26.:00:27.

record-breaking British teenager who has become the youngest person ever

:00:28.:00:31.

to reach the South Pole. Lewis Clarke completed his 7000 mile

:00:32.:00:34.

charity trek last night and earlier this morning we called him on a

:00:35.:00:38.

special satellite phone to ask the questions you wanted answering. I

:00:39.:00:42.

started by asking how it felt to have finally made it.

:00:43.:00:50.

It was fantastic. Especially being the youngest person ever to have

:00:51.:00:54.

done it. More people climb Everest every year that have completed this

:00:55.:01:02.

expedition. It feels so great. To be the youngest is really awesome. Why

:01:03.:01:10.

did you decide to go to the south pole in the first place? It is such

:01:11.:01:19.

an amazing place to be. It is M amazing expedition to do. It's kind

:01:20.:01:24.

of happened, I suppose. Jessica in Liverpool asks if you came across

:01:25.:01:30.

any polar bears and how many layers of clothes did you have to wear?

:01:31.:01:35.

There aren't any polar bears, just Anglicans. As to the labour of

:01:36.:01:40.

clothes, I think about three but that's kept me pretty warm. Annie in

:01:41.:01:46.

London asks what was the most challenging part of the expedition.

:01:47.:01:50.

Another question is what was the most scariest moments? Most

:01:51.:02:00.

challenging part was getting over all the bumps and that is difficult.

:02:01.:02:06.

The scariest, I would say I got pretty cold a few times. It was

:02:07.:02:13.

quite cold. Yes, Lewis braved temperatures as

:02:14.:02:17.

low as minus 45 with the wind chill. But how do you prepare for such

:02:18.:02:21.

harsh conditions? What do you do for entertainment during two months of

:02:22.:02:24.

nothing but snow and ice? Let's find out.

:02:25.:02:32.

Entertainment was my iPod. I had that on playing music during the

:02:33.:02:37.

day. As soon as they went to the tent at night, I was asleep because

:02:38.:02:42.

I was exhausted. How did you train for this adventure? Just general fit

:02:43.:02:47.

this in my local gym but most specifically I dragged high years

:02:48.:02:57.

around my local park just to try and replicate what I was trying to do

:02:58.:03:03.

here. Sounds exhausting. Adam asks how do you cope could warm food in

:03:04.:03:07.

cold conditions? We had to boil water every night. You added it to

:03:08.:03:15.

dry mixture of food. That is our dinner every night and breakfast

:03:16.:03:21.

every morning. What did you eat? It is like spaghetti Bolognese and

:03:22.:03:27.

stuff. It is like a mash and it isn't taste of what it meant to. You

:03:28.:03:30.

will be looking forward to getting back to is in proper food. Caitlin

:03:31.:03:37.

wants to know what is next? I am really not sure to be sure. Lots of

:03:38.:03:44.

provision for my exams this summer. Adventure wise, I am not sure what

:03:45.:03:47.

is coming up next. You can find out more about Lewis's

:03:48.:03:51.

which a small explosives buried underground. Their eyesight is not

:04:43.:04:46.

great but their sense of smell is powerful making them perfect for the

:04:47.:04:50.

job. In certain areas of Mozambique it is too dangerous for people to

:04:51.:04:54.

live on the land which is why these rats are so important. Training
