Kon-Tiki (2012)

Ian Bonar: Sailor

Quotes 

• Thor Heyerdahl : [Taking with two sailors in a bar, showing them a drawn about a raft]  A dozen logs or so, big balsa wood logs, and a hut for five crew. All very capable, of course. The mast, the rudder, there you go: the Kon-Tiki.

  Sailor : [angry]  I spent 22 days on a raft. We have torpedoed. North Atlantic, winter of '43. You can't sail it or steer it. All you can do is sit there and wait to die. These logs... they are going to move against each other in the waves and eventually they are going to break the lashings. And you will each be sitting on a log floating your separate ways at the mercy of the elements.

  Thor Heyerdahl : [ashamed]  Thank you for your time.
