A discussion with SAS veteran Jason Fox as he brings Life At The Limit to Telford on February 2 2023.

“I was having a nightmare of a day – couldn’t see the purpose of anything, work wasn’t good, I’d had a massive argument, and just felt ‘What’s the point?’,” he recalls.

Thrust back into civilian life at the age of 36, for the first time since leaving school, the mundanity of everyday living – booking dentist appointments, filing tax returns, living full time with a partner – was a bigger challenge than the life he’d known. From there, Jason ‘got rid of negativity’ in his life, and ‘went on a journey to find the right people’ to help him move forwards.

“Initially, SAS: Who Dares Wins was a bit of an experiment – no one knew if or how it would work, or how people taking part would respond to it,” he said. “It’s nothing like as tough as I was used to in the Special Forces, but we are still working 24-hour days in extreme environments, pulling together, challenging ourselves.”

The 90s were a"reasonably quiet" time for the Marines, but that quiet time made him realise it was the action of soldiering –"being like a kid running around in the dirt" was what Fox enjoyed. Less so the"parading, the pomp and ceremony". “It was a turning point in the public relationship with and awareness of Special Forces operations – they became mainstream news, having always been very much undercover. Stuff I was doing would be in the newspapers, on the front pages, that had never happened before.”
