The extremes of jungles, mountains, and deserts are inherently dangerous places.

I've eaten sheep's eyes, the still hot meat from a zebra killed by a lion, and maggots which give you 70 calories to the ounce.

As a young boy, scouting gave me a confidence and camaraderie that is hard to find in modern life.

One thing I know for sure: it is only by doing what we fear that we can ever truly learn to be brave.

I love Ray Mears. He's brilliant. He's so rude about me in the press, it's outrageous!

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.

Look, sometimes, no matter how hard you try, sometimes you need a bit of luck.
