Sporting Witness podcast series.

"n 2000, a Canadian diver became the first person to explore the underwater caves of a giant iceberg. Jill Heinerth was already renowned for her exploits mapping vast underground cave networks in Florida.But when a vast iceberg known as B-15 broke away from an ice shelf in Antarctica, Jill was given a unique challenge.Braving sub-zero temperatures and the treachery of constantly shifting ice, she became the first person to ever enter one of these caves - a historic milestone in diving.She spoke to Emily Finch in 2022.
