AntarcticaAntarctica• ‘I am just going outside and may be some
time.’The others nod, pretending not to know.At the heart of the ridiculous, the sublime.He leaves them reading and begins to climb,Goading his ghost into the howling snow;He is just going outside and may be some time.The tent recedes beneath its crust of rimeAnd frostbite is replaced by vertigo:At the heart of the ridiculous, the sublime.Need we consider it some sort of crime,This numb self-sacrifice of the weakest? No,He is just going outside and may be some timeIn fact, for ever. Solitary enzyme,Though the night yield no glimmer there will glow,At the heart of the ridiculous, the sublime.

The ExpeditionThe Expedition• Waking on the morning of 16 March and
recognising the need to sacrifice himself in order to give the others a chance of survival, Scott wrote that Oates said to them; "I am just going outside and may be some time." Forgoing the pain and effort of putting his boots on, he walked out of the tent into a blizzard and −40 °F (−40 °C) temperatures to his death. Scott also wrote in his diary, "We knew that poor Oates was walking to his death, but though we tried to dissuade him, we knew it was the act of a brave man and an English gentleman". Oates' noble sacrifice however made no difference to the eventual outcome
