Adventurers around the world rejoice: Bear Grylls is launching his first Survival Academy where a few lucky participants from around the globe will have the opportunity to learn Bear’s extreme survival skills. The six-day course will be held in one of the last true wilderness areas of the British Isles: Sutherland, Scotland and has been designed by Bear along with his team of experts to truly test each person’s limits.
“So many people have asked me over the years where they can learn extreme, practical survival – the type that requires spirit, determination and the skills to self-rescue against the odds, in some of the harshest terrain around. So it is with great pride that we can now finally launch the Bear Grylls Survival Academy to be able to share some of these skills and what it really means to be able to look after yourself when the chips are down,” says Bear Grylls. “Oh, and it may hurt a little.”
The six-day course will comprise of a combination of remote land and sea survival and adventure tasks that will culminate in a wilderness expedition designed to put the enrollees’ new found skills to the ultimate test. Techniques include how to make a fire in the pouring rain, build emergency shelters, the best ways to use a knife for survival, forage for grubs and rodents, remote medical trauma, rappelling, extreme weather survival and river crossings.
