Daily Mail: Inside the hellish nightmare as madman attacks stranded crew at isolated Antarctica research station.
A researcher at an isolated station in Antarctica allegedly turned into a violent madman, leaving his team living in fear and revealing a terrifying culture of violence.
The unnamed male team member at the remote Sanae IV base was accused of attacking one of the South African crew's nine researchers, threatening to kill another, and sexually assaulting two women.
According to an urgent email from a Sanae IV researcher to the South African government, the unstable man's actions had become 'deeply disturbing' and the scientists needed an emergency evacuation.

Despite Environment Minister Dion George claiming the base is now 'calm and all is under control,' this is just the latest in a shocking pattern of strange behavior among scientists in Antarctica.

'You can imagine what it's like. It is close quarters and people do get cabin fever. It can be very disorientating,' Minister George said.
The long stretches of isolation and working in close quarters means that each researcher must undergo a series of background checks, physical and medical assessments, and a psychometric evaluation before they are cleared for the expedition.
However, many of these incidents aren't just cases of scientists losing their cool.
Maybe it really is the Black Oil alien virus?
We'll probably never know what really happened.
