Chris Ryan is a former Special Air Service operator. The only member of his eight-man team to not be captured or killed, Chris evaded enemy patrols and survived a 300-kilometer journey to the Syrian border during the First Gulf War. It was the longest Escape and Evasion in the history of the SAS. 

In this episode, Jack and Chris discuss how Chris survived his 1991 experience in Iraq.

He is the bestselling author of seventy fiction and non-fiction books including the Geordie Sharp series, Alpha Force, the Danny Black series and The One That Got Away, which details his experience on E&E (Escape & Evasion) during the 1991 Gulf War. His book Strike Back was adapted into a TV series for the UK’s Sky 1 and he helped create the action-drama TV series Ultimate Force. 

He’s also hosted popular TV shows including Hunting Chris Ryan, Terror Alert: Could You Survive, How Not to Die, and Armed and Dangerous.
