Bear Grylls: Two All-Action Adventures: Facing Up - Facing the Frozen Ocean

Facing Up

At the age of twenty-three, Bear Grylls became one of the youngest Britons to reach the summit of Mount Everest. Having suffered a broken back only two years before in a freefall parachuting accident, he overcame incredible odds to reach the top of the world's highest mountain. Facing Up is the story of his adventure, his courage and humour, his friendship and faith.

Facing The Frozen Ocean

It started out as a record attempt: the first unassisted crossing of the frozen north Atlantic in an open rigid inflatable boat. It quickly became a terrifying battle against crashing waves and icebergs when Bear Grylls and his team found themselves in a devastating storm 400 miles from shore. This is the white-knuckle story of their ordeal and their struggle to fight their way back to dry land.
