My best life lessons and education didn't come from a classroom - they've come from the wild. How you act in the big moments, the ones that challenge you, scare you, tempt you, and force you to make the right decisions, is what defines you.

I train five days a week hard - but it is short and sharp - 30 to 40 minutes of functional and pretty dynamic body-strength circuits, then I do a good yoga session on the sixth day, then I rest.

My faith is an important part of my life and over the years I've learnt that it takes a proud man to say he doesn't need anything. It has been a quiet strength and a backbone through a lot of difficult times.

A wise man knows; learn from others, never get complacent and know where the classic old dangers come from.

I never wanted to do TV. I just did what I was trained to do through the Special Forces, and I've been doing that from a very young age.

The rewards of the wild and the rewards of the survivor go to those who can dig deep, and, ultimately, to the guy who can stay alive.

Unless you have shelter, fire is going to be very hard and if you have fire, but no water, you're going to die. They're all super important.
