My faith is an important part...

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.

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

I always wanted to be Robin Hood or John the Baptist when I was growing up.

Americans are cool; if you sh...

Americans are cool; if you show just a chink of vulnerability, they respond so much. They'll pat you on the arm and say, 'Hey kid, you're all right.' Brits will respond but they are much more cynical.

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

Bear Grylls 173 quotes

Well, wolves will pretty rare...

Well, wolves will pretty rarely hunt. You're vulnerable if you're on your own or injured. But for lone wolves, get up high, show them that you're not injured, face 'em off, be authoritarian with it, and look 'em in the eye.

Bear Grylls 173 quotes

You're not human if you don't...

You're not human if you don't feel fear. But I've learnt to treat fear as an emotion that sharpens me. It's there to give me that edge for what I have to do.

Bear Grylls 173 quotes

Survival can be summed up in ...

Survival can be summed up in three words - never give up. That's the heart of it really. Just keep trying.

As for my diet, I try to eat lean, clean and healthy - nothing too surprising. And I avoid too much meat or dairy because they slow you down.

And Jesus, the heart of the Christian faith is the wildest, most radical guy you'd ever come across.

I do see a lot of the hard end of ecology, and my feeling is that we live on a super-exciting planet but a super-fragile one.

Bear Grylls 173 quotes

That feeling when you're so cold you'd give anything to be warm - I've had it before, literally huddled around a candle flame on an ice sheet.

Accidents on big mountains happen when people's ambitions cloud their good judgment. Good climbing is about climbing with heart and with instinct, not ambition and pride.

I exercise about 40 minutes a day, and I'll run one day and do circuit training the next day. I live in an area where there are brilliant hills and mountains, so I get a good hill run with my dog. At home, I'll do the circuit training with old weights, along with pull-ups in the trees and that sort of stuff.

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

Bear Grylls 173 quotes

Our fate is determined by how...

Our fate is determined by how far we are prepared to push ourselves to stay alive - the decisions we make to survive. We must do whatever it takes to endure and make it through alive.

Bear Grylls 173 quotes

I'm terrified of walking into a room full of people. Sitting down at a dinner table with 15 strangers brings me out in a sweat.

Bear Grylls 173 quotes

But the wild is unpredictable...

But the wild is unpredictable, stuff does happen, and it's always when you're least expecting it.

Bear Grylls 173 quotes

When I'm filming, survival requires movement. You need your energy, and you've got to eat the bad stuff, and survival food is rarely pretty, but you kind of do it. I get in that zone, and I eat the nasty stuff, but I'm not like that when I'm back home.

A friend once asked me what qualities were needed for SAS. I would say to be self-motivated and resilient; to be calm, yet have the ability to smile when it is grim; to be unflappable, be able to react fast and to have an ‘improvise, adapt and overcome’ mentality.
