About this deal

He not only has a wealth of expertise exploring far-flung and hard-to-reach places, but also is passionate about shining a spotlight on the local people and unique environments of the places he visits. Read about how we’ll protect and use your data in our Privacy Notice. As well as being an action-packed, white-knuckle read from the comfort of your armchair, it will also share the mechanisms I rely on to help me navigate extreme danger – these are lessons forged in the armoury of real life and I believe they can guide anyone through tough times, whatever the setting.

Aldo Kane has been on screen around the world on many broadcasters from the BBC, to Discovery, Nat-Geo, Channel 4, PBS, ITV, Channel 5, History Channel and many more. Lessons From The Edge will inspire listeners to find the spirit to do the things in life they’ve previously been too scared to tackle, build the courage to know that failure isn’t the end, and the knowledge that the impossible can be made possible.Cheerfulness in the face of adversity is a very strong message that everybody should occasionally reflect on. All means of earning money went away so I had to somehow capitalise on the time and find a way to make a living.

But before the battle-hardened Scot found fame for his telly escapades, he often felt like a failure after leaving behind his role as a Royal Marines sniper in 2003. But watch this space, as we look forward to sharing more details on his expeditions and future projects over the coming months with you. As well as working on adventure shows for ITV, Channel 5 and the History Channel, Aldo is also the on-screen Expedition Leader for National Geographic’s Natural History series One Strange Rock which sees him lead a team deep inside one of Africa’s most dangerous volcanoes whilst it was erupting.

It meant spending six months at sea this year during trips to the Dominican Republic, the Azores and an ice edge near Svalbard, Norway.

Whelan said: "Aldo’s experiences are truly astonishing – but what also shines through the manuscript is his strength of character, his fighting spirit and his unshakeable determination to improve his life – which is what has got him to where he is now, along with his ability to harness his emotions to his advantage and never give up, even when the world wasn’t going his way. Aldo joined the Royal Marine Commandos at the age of 16 and became one of the youngest Snipers in the UK armed forces. Aldo will also talk honestly and openly about his personal battles: how he overcame doors literally being slammed in his face, rediscovered his identity, and how he harnessed his emotions to his advantage to find determination, purpose, and a renewed sense of belonging.

Aldo Kane is an adventurer and World Record Holder with over 20 years' experience working in some of the most extreme, remote and inhospitable places on the planet; Lessons From The Edge will show readers that with the right mindset, you can get through anything life throws at you. Aldo — who is also doing a book tour which stops at Edinburgh’s Assembly Rooms today — says: “When I go away and I’m working with famous people they love the hardship of it but also the freedom it gives them to not have the trappings of being a celebrity. He shares stories of abseiling into erupting volcanoes and being charged by a rhino and the lessons he learnt from his adventures.
