1. Why? Why do people feel they have to go somewhere exotic to make a siyum? I’d rather stay in my cozy warm home.

2. What was the purpose of going to Antartica to make a siyum?

3. looks like he is “horiving” over which day to keep shabbos..

4. @My Take and @SD Stop being so critical and just focus on the positive this fellow Yid just accomplished.

5. Reply: this was a once in lifetime kosher excursion to Antarctica (see DabsDeals). While anyway there, Siyum was made. The egg came before the chicken.

6. They are there as part of DansDeals.com kosher cruise to Antarctica….

   They didn’t go there just to make the siyum lol 🙂

7. Cooooooool! 😉

8. I have a different take on this. As a frum yid we know there are nitzozes and Neshamas that get lost and float around for years waiting for a tikkun. Saying Kaddish and learning in a place that never had this before for made a roshiem on shamiyim in many ways… who knows that penguin stuck around for the siyum….I know you will think I’m crazy but there are many stories with the Baal Shem tov and others. Torah has to reach all corners of the world! Learn on!!!

9. I traveled the world throughout my life and it doesnt make me happier! Of course vacation is a great thing. But traveling to every little place in the world is not something that gives a person accomplishment! I thing even Dan (dansdeals) would admit it. We are just trying to fill a void in our lives. The only thing that makes me feel accomplished are my daily Chavrusas!!

10. Who said it’s first time?

11. Forget the siyum! I was focused on that penguin!

    Love the video!

12. As Jews we have the ability to make situations in our life holy for Hashem so if a person goes to Antarctica to see and get inspired by the wonders of Hashem he is doing a mitzva and especially if he goes and does a siyum that’s a beautiful thing. Let’s stop criticizing our brothers and look with an Ayin Tovah!
