Watching My Son Jump Off a Cliff Was Way Harder Than I Had Imagined! When Jesse turned 18, he did his first big wall BASE jump in the Italian Dolomites. Under canopy by 10 seconds or it's toast. That's the margin between life and death. As his dad, every instinct screamed at me to stop him. To protect him. To say absolutely not. My job as a father is to keep him safe. To use my experience to guide him away from unnecessary risk. But Jesse is his own man. Kind, humble, hard working, original. And I can't stop him jumping off stuff. As we say in our family: "Pull high, don't die." Watching your child do something that dangerous is harder than any mountain I've ever climbed. You can't control it. You can't be there. You just have to trust that you've given them the tools and the values to make good decisions on their own. Sometimes the greatest act of love is letting go. Trusting that they're ready to fly on their own. Even when every instinct is screaming to hold on. What's one moment you've had to let go as a parent or a leader?

Pre-orders for Modern Savage are live! Have a look at the shelf in your kitchen. The tubs, the tubs behind the tubs, the ones bought with good intentions in January. Ours looked the same. Half of what was in them we couldn't pronounce, and most of it was never food in the first place. Synthetic fillers standing in for nutrition. Cheap forms of minerals the body barely absorbs. And then a sweeter, weaker version of the same thing sold to us for our children. This is the problem Modern Savage exists to solve. Modern Savage: The ultimate all in one supplement. Whole food, bison organs, fibre, probiotics, berries, vitamins, minerals. Mini Savage: The same standard but tailored for kids. + Colostrum. BG Summit Stack: Bears performance stack. Creatine, electrolytes, NMN, zynamite. No brand deal, no endorsement, no borrowed name on the label. 100% family owned, we made it for our own family first. Pre-orders are now open: MODERN by design. SAVAGE by nature.

Planning is crucial. But planning can also become a form of putting things off. At some point, you have to just jump.

The Royal Marines are one of the few families in the world that truly have my heart. Not because of the toughness, though that's real. But because of the brotherhood and spirit of never giving up that runs through all they do. The quiet, unsung commitment of people who give everything and rarely get the recognition they deserve. Louis Theroux came along with me on a tour I did. I think he got to understand something about service that's hard to explain from the outside.

Served Rob Riggle the testicles of a fine bull. Cold. Pickled. He wanted the full mountain man training. This is definitely part of it.

I got to admit Nick Jonas looked at me like I was a little crazy when I got so excited about the bird - even if it was full of maggots inside. But hey, protein is protein! He came around - the legend that is he is!

Jesus called John the Baptist the greatest man ever born. And yet in that dungeon, facing death, John had doubts. He needed to ask one more time: "Are you the one?" For me, that's incredibly reassuring. The little moments like this - the human, vulnerable ones - those are what I never heard growing up. But they're the ones that matter most. Faith isn't about having no doubts. It's about moving forward with them.

One degree water. Broken ice. Pitch dark. Snow falling. I plan for one minute, but once I'm in, I always end up doing the full three. The cold teaches you something most people never learn: your limits are negotiable. What you think you can handle and what you can actually handle are two different things. The gap between them is where growth lives. Cold exposure isn't punishment. It's practice for life. When you train yourself to stay calm in discomfort, you build a skill that carries into everything else.

Elizabeth Banks said something on that mountain I keep thinking about. If you're at A and you want to get to B, you have to ask. If they say no, you're still at A. You didn't go backwards. Worst case, nothing changes. Best case, everything does. Still waiting at A?

Over the years, I’ve learned not to be scared when life hits you sideways. My broken back felt like the end, but it gave me the fire I needed for Everest. There is often a hidden plan in the pain that you just can’t see yet. You just have to keep moving towards it.

Hollywood legend Michael B Jordan remembered hating worms as a kid. He couldn't even eat spaghetti because it reminded him of them. Which made our worms supper even tougher for him! He almost threw up, but somehow kept it down. That's facing your fears head on! Respect.

Found a snake with @michellemonaghan and cooked it on the car! Looks like we just found lunch, though. We're going total full Michelin style, and we are going to cook it on the engine while I drive us to our next stop.

Arctic Ocean. Five of us in a small inflatable. 500 miles offshore in a gale. My best friend, not a man of faith, said he saw an angel on the bow through the whole storm. Kept thinking he was losing it. It never left. We made it through. He found a faith that day and it's never left him. Faith doesn't have to be a Sunday thing. The light has been the best thing in my life.
