OLLIE OLLERTON CO-HOSTS SAS: WHO DARES WINS ALONGSIDE ANT MIDDLETON, JASON FOX and MARK BILLINGHAM. THIS IS HIS INCREDIBLE TRUE STORY
Where is your break point?
Is it here? Facing the gruelling SAS selection process on one leg, with a busted ankle and the finish line nowhere in sight?
Or here? Under heavy fire from armed kidnappers while protecting journalists en route to Baghdad.
Or is it here? At the bottom of a bottle, with a family in pieces, unable to adapt to a civilian lifestyle, yearning for a warzone?
Ex-Special Forces soldier and star of TV's SAS: Who Dares Wins, Ollie Ollerton has faced many break points in his life and now he tells us the vital lessons he has learnt. His incredible story features hardened criminals, high-speed car chases, counter-terrorism and humanitarian heroics - freeing children from a trafficking ring in Thailand.
Ollie has faced break points in his personal life too, surviving a freak childhood attack, run-ins with the law as a teenager rebelling against a broken home, his self-destructive battles with alcohol and drug addiction, and his struggles with anxiety and depression. His final redemption as an entrepreneur and mental health charity ambassador has seen him overcome adversity to build a new and better life.
'Everyone has the capacity for incredible achievement, because it's only when it's crunch time, when you're down to your last bullet - when you're at break point - that you find out who you really are.' Matthew 'Ollie' Ollerton is a Sunday Times no. 1 bestselling author and a former Special Forces soldier, who was one of the founding Directing Staff on Channel 4's hit show SAS: Who Dares Wins and SAS Australia.
Ollie's military career began at the age of 18 when he joined the Royal Marine Commandos and toured operationally in Northern Ireland and in Iraq for Operation Desert Storm. He subsequently spent six years in the Special Boat Service rising to team leader, before working in Iraq as a private security contractor and carrying out anti-child-trafficking charity work in Southeast Asia. These experiences helped shape his life as well as his books.
Ollie is the founder of Breakpoint, the business he runs as part of his mission to help others create more productive, healthier, and happier lives. He furthers this passion through his writing and his online, virtual and public appearances. Ex-Special Forces' soldier and host of SAS: Who Dares Wins, Ollie Ollerton tell his incredible story for the first time. Ollie Ollerton co-hosts Channel 4's hit show, SAS: Who Dares Wins. Episode 1 of Series 4 aired in January 2019 and received 3 million viewers, making it the second most-viewed show on Channel 4, after celebrity Bake-Off. Ollie Ollerton's co-hosts of SAS: Who Dares Wins, Ant Middleton (210k TCM) and Jason Fox (80k TCM) have both released bestselling books in the last 12 months. Middleton's book, First Man In was the 5th best selling non-fiction book of 2018 Ollerton's story is unique.
