The back story:
This guy made a fake twitter account for United Airlines (Note his is airLANES)
Had a few pokes and left it, only to find that people had been voicing their concerns to his account, not the real UA one.
Much hilarity ensued.

There were three Ferguson tractors that made it to the South Pole, a result of arriving too early, a possible miscalculation by Edmund Hillary who was setting up the resupply depots for Vivian Fuchs who led the Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition (CTAE) of 1955–1959 .

“HELLO, Bunny,” said Edmund Hillary, greeting Vivian Fuchs at the South Pole in 1958. “Damn glad to see you Ed,” replied his fellow adventurer. Their gruff, manly exchange, evoking the heroic era of Dr-Livingstone-I-presume exploration, caught the public imagination.

Uk exibit.

How the three tractor were retrieved from the South Pole is a story in it's self.
