Where did Roald Amundsen die?
Clues to Amundsen’s death came in the form of a pontoon from the French Latham 47 flying-boat he was in, improvised into a life raft, which was found near the Tromsø coast. It is believed that the plane crashed in fog in the Barents Sea, and that Amundsen was killed in the crash, or died shortly afterwards. His body was never found. A 2003 discovery suggests the plane went down northwest of Bjørnøya (Bear Island).
