7. The Old Melbourne Gaol

Rumored to be one of the most haunted sites in Australia, the Old Melbourne Gaol has a long, dark history. This dreary prison hosted 136 executions, including that of infamous bushranger Ned Kelly. Take a candlelight tour at night and hope that you don’t attract the attention of any angry spirits that may be lingering there.

Following on from a previous post of James Cracknells Toughest Race on Earth, comes the end of the trilogy – coldest race on earth.

This time he’s going to do everything in cold environments and burn a lot more calories doing so. Have a check of the video to see what it’s all about.

He is also doing this 430 mile challenge 6 months after a cycling accident which put him out of order for a bit to add to the challenge.

The program is featured on Discovery channel (and Discovery HD) at 9pm on Thursday, be sure to check it out!
