The Spirit Behind the Adventure 

Bear Grylls is one of the world’s most recognized faces in outdoor adventure, survival, and resilience. A former soldier with the British Special Forces (21 SAS Regiment), Bear has spent his life embracing challenge, overcoming adversity, and exploring the wildest corners of the planet—values that are at the very heart of Bear Grylls Explorers Camp in Ras Al Khaimah. 

From a young age, Bear was trained in martial arts and pushed his physical and mental limits. After a near-fatal parachuting accident left him with a broken back in three places, he defied the odds—not only recovering but becoming one of the youngest people to summit Mount Everest at the time. His courage, drive, and relentless spirit became his signature—qualities now embedded in every course, climb, and challenge offered at our camp.

 

Bear became a global household name through his hit series Man vs. Wild, which reached over 1.2 billion viewers worldwide. Since then, he has hosted some of the world’s most daring and successful adventure shows, including Running Wild with Bear Grylls, You vs. Wild on Netflix, and Hostile Planet on National Geographic. He’s taken public figures like President Barack Obama, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Julia Roberts, and Roger Federer into the wild proving that challenge, growth, and self-discovery transcend background, profession, and fame. 

In addition to his on-screen accomplishments, Bear is the author of over 95 books, including the bestselling autobiography Mud, Sweat and Tears. His stories have inspired millions, and his message remains clear: be courageous, stay kind, and never give up. 

As the youngest-ever UK Chief Scout and now Chief Ambassador to the World Scout Organization, Bear represents a global family of 50 million Scouts—motivating young people to be prepared, take risks, and embrace the outdoors with confidence. 

Today, Bear Grylls is more than an adventurer. He’s a symbol of perseverance, humility, and leadership. And at Bear Grylls Explorers Camp, we proudly bring his philosophy to life—empowering every guest to challenge their limits, learn practical skills, and discover what they’re truly capable of.
