There were far more successful ones at the same time that did well. This one is just infamous for bad management.
Amundsen, the one that succeded in the race to the South Pole lived by a great motto: You only need good luck if you didn’t plan properly. He was a true adventurer with a sharp mind, shame he disappeared on a rescue mission.

Semi fun fact; my great great grandfather was Amundsens brother. Well, one of the two brothers, anyway.
