Into Oman's "Empty Quarter" - Alistair Humphreys & Leon McCarron

Inspired by Wilfred Thesiger, long distance hikers Leon McCarron & Alistair Humphreys trek 1,000 miles through the Empty Quarter Desert in Oman. To record their journey, the pair created a film titled Into the Empty Quarter, which highlights their struggle through the desert, including dragging an unwieldy cart overflowing with supplies. Despite trials of extreme heat, cold nights and losing their sleeping pads on the first day, the most memorable part was the kindness of locals who brought them ice cream in the middle of the desert.
