A LITTLE ABOUT YOUR SPEAKER

My name is Benji Brundin, and in 2019 I set a new Guinness World Record becoming the first person to ever cross all ten Australian deserts solo and unsupported on a motorbike. I have since written a book, ‘Hunting Fear’ about the journey from losing everything, to then setting a world record plus the lessons I learnt along the way. Allow me to come and enthrall your school/organization with stories of rock bottom despair, crippling fear and the highs of beating overwhelming odds.

“I want to inspire people, particularly young people, to live life with the throttle wide open. On the other side of gut-crippling fear lies freedom, and when you face those fears, the greatest adventures await you, that I can promise”
— Benji Brundin
