Publisher Description
SAS trooper and trainee pilot Jamie Hull was flying solo when his aircraft caught fire. It should have been the end of his life, but it was the beginning of his story.
With flames up to his chin, he brought the plane in, climbed out and jumped from the wing. As he lay on the ground, fully conscious, waiting for the emergency services, he could smell his flesh burn.
Even if he survived, what would he have left to live for?
But this man is made of stern stuff. He fought back from the brink of death, and created a new and profoundly meaningful life from the wreckage of his experience.
Meet Jamie Hull, former Special Services soldier, now Ambassador for Help for Heroes and veteran of two marathons, a 3,000-mile bicycle race across America and an expedition up Mount Kilimanjaro. His story will take to you to the furthest extremes of human endurance and endeavour.

Hooked on the rollercoaster of recovery
This book had me hooked from the first chapter. The book had me feeling tense and tearful within the first two two chapters. So well written, I felt as though I was beside Jamie the whole way through his journey, from trauma to recovery.
An incredible person and an incredible story, inspirational and motivating.
Great book for a personal read or a gift.
