Nobody Wants To End Up

I Was Christened Edward. My Sister Gave Me The Name Bear When I Was A Week Old And It Has Stuck.

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.

Dreams, Though, Are Cheap, And The Real Task Comes When You Start Putting In Place The Steps Needed To Make Those Dreams A Reality.

I Started To Get So Many Letters From Unlikely People; A Single Mum Going, "i Watch Your Show, I'm Not Into Survival, But I Hold Down Four Jobs And I Get It When You Say It's About Persistence And Putting A Positive Attitude Into Things During Difficult Times." That For Me Was A Great Liberator To Realize That The Show Isn't About Me Running Around, Jumping Off Stuff And Flexing Muscles, It's About Inspiring People. That Makes Me Really Happy.

Survival Requires Us To Leave Our Prejudices At Home. It's About Doing Whatever It Takes - And Ultimately Those With The Biggest Heart Will Win.
