Yes, for the six-month period between its sunrise about September 21 and its sunset about March 21 the daylight time lasts 24 hours at the South Pole.
The same is true at the North Pole, and the events occur on the same days, in opposition.
Tilt of the Earth's axis
It's because the Earth's axis is tilted. If the axis were perpendicular to the orbit, daylight would last 12 hours every day, pretty well everywhere on Earth. Because the Earth's axis is tilted the amount of daylight depends on the latitude. Try to visualize the Earth rotating around its axis; when the north pole points away from the Sun, the Sun is always below the horizon from the point of view of somebody at the north pole. For somebody at the south pole, the Sun will always be above the horizon (at that time of the year). For locations in between, the days get longer and longer as you move - in this example - from the north pole towards the south pole.

Spain is usually six hours ahead of New York. (Since the United States does not start or end Daylight Saving Time on the same dates that Europe starts and ends Summer Time, the time difference is five hours between the 2nd and last Sundays of March and between the last Sunday of October and the 1st Sunday of November.)
From the south pole there's only one direction available: north. As soon as you take one step from the south pole, you can either continue going north or go east or west; in the last cases you will make very narrow circles.
Tilt of the Earth's axis
It depends on where you are and what season it is. If you are at the equator then there is 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of night. If you are above the arctic circle then during the winter there is 24 hours of darkness each day, this will occur on Dec. 21st. If you are further above the arctic circle the darkness can last for months. During the summer there will be 24 hours of daylight on June 21st, and again this can last for months if you are very far north. The same is true for the South pole as well.
These days, there is a permanent scientific station at the south pole, and there are always teams of scientists and support people there. As of early 2014, there was a last person to the moon, but there was no last person to the South Pole.
Sunny, clear, cold, windy and people are active. Some of these hours of daylight last 24 hours a day.

None. December 21 is the middle of the six-month polar night. If you're standing exactly on the North Pole, then the sun rises on March 21 and stays up until September 21. So the the length of that 'day' is something like 4,383 hours (six months or 182.62 days).
960 hours of daylight in the season of Spring.

north pole , ( the last person answer this , " yes or no " question is wrong.) it is north pole
Back in the 1920's Mount Everest was climbed for the adventure. It was classed as the thrid pole, both the South and North pole had been reached and Everest was the last unknown adventure.
That depends on your location and the date. On average, you get 12 hours of daylight; more in the summer, but less in the winter.
South Africa is 10 hours behind New Zealand Standard Time (1st Sun. of Apr. to last Sun. of Sep.) and 11 hours behind New Zealand Daylight Saving Time.South Africa is 11 hours behind New Zealand.
