'No one could fail to be gripped by his heartfelt excitement and emotion over what was the adventure of a lifetime' IndependentAt the age of twenty-three, Bear Grylls became one of the youngest Britons to reach the summit of Mount Everest. At extreme altitude youth holds no advantage over experience, and it is generally acknowledged that younger climbers have more difficulty coping with the adverse effects of mountaineering. Nevertheless, only two years after breaking his back in a freefall parachuting accident, Bear Grylls overcame severe weather conditions, fatigue, dehydration and a last-minute illness to stand on top of the world's highest mountain. Facing Up is the story of his adventure, his courage and humour, his friendship and faith.

"Tilbage til Sibirien. Jeg husker en aften, hvor fotografen Simon Reay og jeg lå i vores soveposer på tynde luftmadrasser direkte oven på sneen under et træ. Ingen af os kunne sove, og en gang i timen prikkede han til mig og viste mig temperaturmåleren i hans kamera, så jeg kunne se, hvordan det hele tiden blev koldere.’Jeg ved, det er koldt, Si. Snottet i min næse er frosset, og det gør ondt blot at trække vejret.’"Eventyrer Bear Grylls fortæller om nogle af sine farligste, mærkeligste og mest spændende oplevelser i vildmarken. Vi er med, da han tager USA’s præsident Obama og en hel flok livvagter med ud i vildmarken som en del af et tv-program, da han må drikke sit eget tis for at ikke at dø af tørst, og om hvordan han har overlevet i 42 graders kulde i det nådesløse Sibirien. Bear Grylls fortæller også om hverdagsudfordringer som angst og mindreværdsfølelse, som kan være lige så svære at tackle som vilde dyr og bjergbestigning.Edward Michael "Bear" Grylls (f. 1974) er en britisk eventyrer, forfatter og tv-vært. Bear Grylls er kendt for sine mange overlevelsesture og blev som 23-årig den yngste englænder til at bestige Mount Everest. Efterfølgende har Bear Grylls krydset Nordatlanterhavet i en gummibåd, og i 2008 besteg han nogle af Antarktis’ uudforskede bjerge for at samle penge ind til velgørenhed og for at promovere alternativ energi. Bear Grylls har skrevet en række bøger om overlevelse og står bag populære tv-programmer om, hvordan man overlever i det fri.
En overlevelsesguide til livet – Hvordan du opnår dine mål, trives i modgang og vokser som person er fuld af historier fra Bear Grylls mange ekspeditioner og uddannelse til SAS-soldat. Historier der er spændende, følelsesfulde og afslørende. Ved at vise læseren, hvordan han har håndteret modstand, livsfare, sult og tilsyneladende uoverstigelige forhindringer, hjælper Bear Grylls læserne med at sætte sin egen kurs mod deres drømme.Vildmarken lærer os værdifulde ting om os selv, andre og verden omkring os. De erfaringer kan redde vores liv, når vi befinder os på et bjerg eller dybt nede i en kløft, men de kan også forbedre vores dagligdag ved, at give os færdigheder og indsigt til at forstå vores situation og de muligheder og risici, der er omkring os. Livet i vildmarken lærer os at være ydmyge over for de ting, vi ikke kan kontrollere. Nogle dage er vejret for dårligt, eller mørket forhindrer os i at komme videre. Men det lærer os også at komme i kontakt med vores instinkter, overvinde forhindringer, gribe mulighederne og se farerne i øjnene.En overlevelsesguide til livet er ikke en selvhjælpsbog i traditionel forstand. Det er heller ikke en håndbog om, hvordan man kan blive lidt mere effektiv eller marginalt mere succesfuld. Det er simpelthen en samling af historier og eventyr, der afslører noget dybtgående om den menneskelige sjæl for at vise os, at vi alle er i stand til mere end vi tror.
