About this listen
Admired by millions as the star of Man vs. Wild and the acclaimed NGC series Running Wild, global adventurer Bear Grylls has explored places few would dare to go. Now, he shares time-honored lessons for leading an adventurous life through stories drawn from his personal experiences, as well as encounters with a diverse group of celebrities who have participated in his wildly popular television shows.
In these inspiring chapters, Grylls chronicles his life since stepping onto the small screen, taking listeners on his most famous adventures, sharing stories from his favorite expeditions, and capturing his hairiest survival challenges. The follow-up to the internationally best-selling Mud, Sweat and Tears, this new autobiography goes behind the scenes on infamous Man vs. Wild shoots and provides an insight into what it's really like to "Run Wild" with guests including President Obama, Roger Federer, and Julia Roberts. Along the way, Bear explores the valuable lessons he's learned in the wild, opens up about his most personal challenges and achievements, and celebrates the true value of adventure and the enduring importance of courage, kindness, and resilience.

The world’s greatest bodybuilder. The world’s highest-paid movie star. The leader of the world’s sixth-largest economy. That these are the same person sounds like the setup to a joke, but this is no joke. This is Arnold Schwarzenegger. And this did not happen by accident. Arnold’s stratospheric success happened as part of a process. As the result of clear vision, big thinking, hard work, direct communication, resilient problem-solving, open-minded curiosity, and a commitment to giving back. All of it guided by the one lesson Arnold’s father hammered into him above all: be useful.

From the world-famous survival expert, learn how to make every day an unforgettable adventure. Life in the outdoors teaches us invaluable lessons. Encountering the wild forces us to plan and execute goals, face danger, push our "limits," and sharpen our instincts. But our most important adventures don't always happen in nature's extremes. Living a purpose-driven, meaningful life can often be an even greater challenge.

On the outside, he seemed invincible: he escaped his abusive father, went pro in the NFL, and broke into the glamorous world of Hollywood. But his fixation with appearing outwardly tough eventually turned into an exhausting performance in which repressing his emotions let them get the better of him—leading him into addiction and threatening the most important relationships in his life. Now Crews is sharing the raw, never-before-told story of his quest to find the true meaning of toughness.

Super disappointing that Bear didn't read it himself. The story was great, but not hearing it from him really made it a bit less exciting.

I have always looked up to Bear.
I live in CA. So my introduction to this man was of course Man Vs Wild. Always looked up to how well spoken and how strong of a character Bear is. I bought Blood Sweat and Tears 2 times (hard copy and audible version) Truly inspiring. Every time I read or listen to these books, I literally just wanna quit my job and go on an adventure to strengthen myself and become a better human.

Bear knows how to relate to the common man
Really enjoyed this listen. Like Bear's other books, it was engaging and thought provoking. Bear opens himself up to the many struggles he faces - struggles that everybody face. It is still great to hear from this man, who has accomplished so much, that his journey has been a tough one and that there are still things to overcome. The narrator was excellent. It was like I was listening to Bear narrate his own book.
