Notability?[edit]

Apparently this man was a sailor with a group which climbed onto land together. Unless there's more to his life, some non-inclusionist editors may think that jumping out of a boat probably doesn't earn him his own article, which ought to be about the whole brave group instead.

Von Tunzelmann wasn't the first to set foot on Antarctica, although he probably was in that part of the continent. The first were sealers and whalers on the Antarctic peninsula about 60 years earlier.
