I don't thrive on stress. I love lying on the deck on our houseboat reading a book.

I was christened Edward. My sister gave me the name Bear when I was a week old and it has stuck.

You can't live someone else's expectations in life. It's a recipe for disaster.

I am not fearless. I get scared plenty. But I have also learned how to channel that emotion to sharpen me.

Well, wolves will pretty rarely hunt. You're vulnerable if you're on your own or injured. But for lone wolves, get up high, show them that you're not injured, face 'em off, be authoritarian with it, and look 'em in the eye.

The hardest thing about my job isn't the snake bites or the crocodiles, it's being away from my children. I have a really religious satellite phone call every day back to the boys, wherever we are, whatever time zone, to say goodnight.

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.

That feeling when you're so cold you'd give anything to be warm - I've had it before, literally huddled around a candle flame on an ice sheet.

I try and eat really healthy when I'm home, but I certainly don't eat worms and snakes.
