It has been Mark Sedon’s mission in life to never waste a day. From a life filled with adventure growing up in the outdoors and travelling all seven continents of the world, Mark has extraordinary tales to tell, including some incredible accounts of survival when things go wrong.

From breaking his back when he was buried in an avalanche, to watching helplessly high up on an erupting volcano, starving for five days in a shipping container in remote Papua, and a yacht fire and broken mast in the Southern Ocean. Climbing Mt Everest, then saving a Sherpa’s life high in the Himalaya, and kite skiing 2,000km across Antarctica for two months in temperatures as low as -60 C to climb the most remote mountain on earth. 

The talk will cover the highs and lows, the laughs and humility of Mark’s audacious adventures. He delivers an important message to every would-be thrill-seeker about understanding and mitigating risk and for those, like Sedon, happy then to accept the risk, it’s about living life to the fullest.
