We were in Kruger National Park. We were moving to a location. It was me, cameraman sound guy. We're walking and we see these two female lines. They just normally just didn't pay any attention. This one didn't. And when when she sat up i saw two cub tails behind her

that's when it gets dicey oh boy yeah do any of you have a weapon on you no this female lion

sees me it's probably 30 yards away if i had a rifle slung i don't even think i could have got it up in time

to take a shot that cat closed the distance within probably 15 feet you're right on top of her now and

I remember it just looking at me like this I'm thinking holy shit I'm about to get eaten

alive by line like this is gonna suck but we had started on that getting into a little bit

of the dual survival stuff and you at least started on talking about it but how did that how did the opportunity even come up like how did you get offered

to do this and drop around the world so first i had no desire to be on tv zero like think about it

i was in a black ops unit like it's black black as you can get and then being

on a international tv show from like like it's the complete opposite sides of the spectrum but to

answer your question i was in california um doing exercise with marsock and um it was hot in a desert. And a friend of mine was texting

me, or excuse me, he was emailing me. He's like, hey, dude, check this email that's out,

go to the community, meaning the special operations community. And it was, it was from this production

company. It said wanted special operations, uh, individual, uh, for for reality tv show didn't say the name

and it just said send resume and headshot i think it's what it said yeah i'm like dude whatever

i'm like i'm not interested he's like hey let's just turn around names i'm like dude no i'm not

interested i want to do it we kept like every freaking day he kept i'm like, dude, no, I'm not interested. I don't want to do it. We kept, like, every freaking day. He kept saying, I'm like, bro, enough. So I finally said to hell with it, I'm just going to turn my name in. So I, like, I had a bio and just some bullshit pitcher. Like, I didn't care. And I send it. I'm like, done. I even C-Ced him. Like, here, dude, it's done. Leave me the fuck alone, right?

I'm never going to do this. Exactly. Dude, never say never. Oh, my God. So, I sent it in, and I end up going back home after this exercise. And did you feel like you could do that role no problem though

didn't even think about it didn't even it didn't even register there's a fuck it send it

yeah it was like fuck it said it yeah i'm like i'm done like okay i'm not joking dude so about
