Heyerdahl was one of the best modern explorers. His Kon Tiki expedition proved that ancient Peruvians could navigate the Pacific Ocean. he also proved that Egyptians could reach the New World with his Ra expeditions.

In the usual sense of the word, Thor Heyerdahl isn't an explorer. He didn't set out to discover something or someplace new; he re-created voyages of the distant past to prove theories of exploration. To me, he deserves great admiration -- the original explorers were heading into the unknown, but Heyerdahl was fully aware of the many dangers in his path. And still he set out.
