How To Walk Around Australia With Camels with John Elliot

Описание: John Elliot has a story that simply has to be heard to be believed. If a movie studio pitched his story as an idea, it would be shot down as just too far-fetched to be real. But real it is. Having chosen to leave his hugely successful business at just age 35 to seek out an adventure, John, with absolutely no previous experience or training, purchased a handful of camels and began what was to become a solo 12,000 km journey that took him and his camels to every corner of the country.

John endured pretty much every critical life-threatening moment you could imagine, and some you just couldn’t. In his incredibly entertaining way, we hear about split-second survival decisions while having to outrun one of Australia’s most devastating bushfires, falling off a mountain face with 1,000kg of camel falling right behind him, having to survive on roadkill, fighting off rouge wild camel attacks, losing all his camels while in a life-threatening blizzard and, when facing a fate worse than death, holding the 5 bullets he carried with him and needing to make the decision that there was just enough for each of his camels and then himself. This is not just a story just about getting out of your comfort zone, it’s about smashing the crap out of anything that even slightly resembles one.
