Bear spent three years with the British Special Forces. During this time he had a horrendous parachuting accident whilst in southern Africa and broke his back in three places. Yet two years later, after severe rehabilitation, he overcame the odds to become the youngest British climber ever to reach the summit of Mount Everest and return alive.

His book on this extraordinary story soared into the Top 10 of the Bestseller list. He has since written two further best-selling books and lead numerous other record breaking expeditions. Bear has also hosted several hit TV Series both in the UK and USA .

Bear is one of the youngest and most successful motivational speakers in the world. In the words of one newspaper, Bear is “the ultimate modern day adventurer – the real deal!”
