Über diesen Titel

Episode 3: The Men Who Vanished Chasing Gold Jack follows the tragic arcs of explorers who disappeared into the jungle and never came back: Gonzalo Pizarro's catastrophic expedition, Francisco de Orellana's abandonment, Pedro de Ursúa's murder by the psychotic Lope de Aguirre, and Sir Walter Raleigh's fatal obsession that cost him his son and his life. This episode catalogs the pattern of ambition becoming obsession becoming disappearance, examining how the sunk cost fallacy turned reasonable men into corpses. Jack dissects the psychology that kept expeditions marching toward death despite overwhelming evidence of failure, and how the jungle absorbed wave after wave of men who believed they'd somehow be the exception to a very consistent rule.
