More quotes 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.
Bear Grylls
Sometimes it's hard for us to believe, really believe, that God cares and wants good things for us and doesn't just want us to go off and give everything up and become missionaries in Burundi.
Bear Grylls
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.
Bear Grylls
Adventure should be 80 percent 'I think this is manageable,' but it's good to have that last 20 percent where you're right outside your comfort zone. Still safe, but outside your comfort zone.
Bear Grylls
To get ready to climb Everest, I did a lot of hill running with a daypack on and a lot of underwater swimming. I would swim a couple of lengths underwater and then a couple above. It gets your body going with limited oxygen.
Bear Grylls
The difference between ordinary and extra-ordinary is so often just simply that little word - extra.
Bear Grylls
I've seen extreme bravery from the least likely of people. Life is about the moments when it's all gone wrong. That's when we define ourselves.
Bear Grylls
Both faith and fear may sail into your harbor, but only allow faith to drop anchor.
Bear Grylls
Life has taught me to be very cautious of a man with a dream, especially a man who has teetered on the edge of life. It gives a fire and recklessness inside that is hard to quantify.
Bear Grylls
All my life the only thing I've been good at has been climbing and throwing myself off big things.
Bear Grylls
I've eaten sheep's eyes, the still hot meat from a zebra killed by a lion, and maggots which give you 70 calories to the ounce.
Bear Grylls
I didn't want to do eight seasons of How To Build A Fire. The intention was to make something fun and dynamic and about self rescue, not about whittling.
Bear Grylls
Change the way you use your time, and you change your life.
Bear Grylls
I said no to the Born Survivor producer three times because I've never aspired to be a TV man.
Bear Grylls
My best life lessons and education didn't come from a classroom - they've come from the wild. How you act in the big moments, the ones that challenge you, scare you, tempt you, and force you to make the right decisions, is what defines you.
Bear Grylls
You can't become a decent horseman until you fall off and get up again, a good number of times. There's life in a nutshell.
Bear Grylls
Without risk, there can be no growth.
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.
Bear Grylls
Unless you have shelter, fire is going to be very hard and if you have fire, but no water, you're going to die. They're all super important.
Bear Grylls
There's no magic to running far or climbing Everest. Endurance is mental strength. It's all about heart.
