“Working as a Personal Body Guard for an 80’s pop group, Duran Duran, in the UK with two ex SAS soldiers, and playing survival games in the forests, mountains & urban areas, at any given opportunity was our way of letting off steam. When I arrived in New Zealand I was able to use some of the skills that I'd learnt, as well as formalising them at the Sir Edmund Hillary Outdoor Pursuits Centre, to lead survival camps for teenagers, as the Senior Outdoor Instructor of YMCA.

Shot our own show 2013, which was screened May/June 2014, called RV RAMPAGE on the Travel Channel on the SKY network, to 220 million homes.

Technical Advisor for three previous Survival Shows from, South Korea, USA & Australia. And now friends visit my Blacksmith shop, and I guide them throughout the process of making their own knife.

Loving life. "If you're not living life on the edge, then you're taking up too much room".
