About this listen

World-renowned adventurer and broadcaster, Bear Grylls, presents some of the most incredible near-death experiences, told by those who lived to tell the tale. These extraordinary and diverse accounts of human bravery, mental and physical strength - and sometimes sheer luck - range from being stranded for more than 50 days at sea, to surviving world-changing acts of terrorism.

Bear contextualises each feat of endurance or bravery by relating them to his own experiences of near-misses and misfortune from his military career and survivalist adventures. Listeners will experience the firsthand retelling of acts of quick thinking and gruelling struggles of those who found themselves in some of the most extreme circumstances imaginable.

It’s a shame podcasts can’t be played in the car as it’s dangerous to manually skip to the next chapter every 5 minutes. I’m sure Audible are doing this deliberately to underline that thus is ‘free’ & therefore not as good as the premium product. As they have done nothing but fob me off, I guess I’ll never know. The podcast is good though.

Good Podcast but poor functionality

This is a very thrilling and interesting listen that gives a fantastic insight into the mind set that people have to go into to survive and they show that anyone can do anything if they put there mind to it.

Great stories of bravery, resilience and fortitude.
Each story was compelling in its own right and left me feeling inspired, revitalised and grateful for life and its possibilities.

These true stories were well presented and told in a gripping way, definitely captured my attention.
My favourites were the hippo attack, the escape from the Twin Towers and the shark attack.
The majority of the people involved all seemed to have one thing in common and that was their calmness and logical thinking in a very bad situation, which is something to remember if I’m ever in the wrong place at the wrong time!
