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.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
My favorite moments? Where it's all going swimmingly, the sun's out and I've got a fire going and a nice snake on the barbecue.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
I think viewers quite like it when I'm suffering or eating or drinking something horrible or really up against it in some quicksand or whatever.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
Textbook survival tells you to stay put. Stop. Wait for rescue. Don't take any risks. But there'd been a whole host of survival shows like that and I didn't really want to do that.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
One killer exercise that's really great is pull-ups with your legs out level. That's my favourite. It's such functional core strength, and that's why I can climb up trees and down vines.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
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.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
The hardest thing about my job isn't the snake bites or the crocodiles, it's being away from my children. I have a really religious satellite phone call every day back to the boys, wherever we are, whatever time zone, to say goodnight.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
I try and eat really healthy when I'm home, but I certainly don't eat worms and snakes.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
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.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
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.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
I love Ray Mears. He's brilliant. He's so rude about me in the press, it's outrageous!
Quote by -Bear Grylls
I said 'no' to the 'Born Survivor' producer three times because I've never aspired to be a TV man.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
I never wanted to do TV. I just did what I was trained to do through the Special Forces, and I've been doing that from a very young age.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
Look, sometimes, no matter how hard you try, sometimes you need a bit of luck.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
I have held healthy respects of bears along with assorted crocodiles, snakes and lots of other animals. You know, bears are dangerous, you have to be super careful.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
Nobody else is stupid enough to get themselves into the straits that I get into.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
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.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
The rules of survival never change, whether you're in a desert or in an arena.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
The rewards of the wild and the rewards of the survivor go to those who can dig deep, and, ultimately, to the guy who can stay alive.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
Nobody wants to end up super rich and famous - but divorced. I'm always clear on that and try to stay on the right side of the line.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
But the wild is unpredictable, stuff does happen, and it's always when you're least expecting it.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
I find skydiving really hard. I broke my back while skydiving when I was in the military, and for 18 months all my nightmares were about falling.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
Survival is not about being fearless. It's about making a decision, getting on and doing it, because I want to see my kids again, or whatever the reason might be.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
A man's pride can be his downfall, and he needs to learn when to turn to others for support and guidance.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
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.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
I am not fearless. I get scared plenty. But I have also learned how to channel that emotion to sharpen me.
Quote by -Bear Grylls
Some of the greatest survivors have been women. Look at the courage so many women have shown after surviving earthquakes in the rubble for days on end.
