American teen influencer Ethan Guo, attempting a solo flight to all seven continents to raise funds for childhood cancer research, was detained in Antarctica after landing unauthorized on King George Island, a Chilean territory. He faced charges for providing false flight plan data and violating aviation rules. After a month-long stay at a military base, charges were dropped in exchange for a $30,000 donation to a children's cancer foundation, leaving Chile, and a three-year ban on re-entry. Guo hopes to resume his journey.
