FORMER British Army Officer - and friend of Prince William - Henry Worsley (55) succumbed to organ failure arising from dehydration and exhaustion ... a mere 30 miles short of completing his epic solo trek across Earth's harshest wasteland ... following in the footsteps of Ernest Shackleton's unfinished polar expedition little more than a century ago.
