10 questions for: Aussie adventure duo Cas and Jonesy

If you ever thought you were adventurous, take a look at these guys. Not content to just paddle on a kayak across the Tasman to New Zealand in 2007, twenty-something adventurers Cas and Jonesy recently returned from an 89-day unassisted expedition to the South Pole (and back).

Cas: Wallabies.
