ACTION MAN

At the age of 16, Aldo Kane passed one of the hardest fitness tests in the world to become a Royal Marine.

“People use the term ‘functional fitness’ a lot, but whatever that function is will be different for everyone”

Since then, he's had a career as a Commando Sniper, completed 13 world-first expeditions, moved camera crews in and out of some of the world's most hostile locations, trained anti-poaching units in Africa, and tracked down tiger traffickers in South East Asia. Oh, and he was part of the five-man crew that rowed the longest route across the Atlantic Ocean in record time.

Driven by adventure and with 26 years’ expedition experience, Kane is an expert in the extreme.
