Show Sponsor:  www.LaShamanaFaby.com I write about extreme adventure and classic rock. I've flown supersonic in five separate aircraft, the highest and fastest of which was a MiG-25 Foxbat (to 84,000 feet at Mach 2.6); skied to the South Pole and swam (sans wetsuit) at the North Pole; summited the Matterhorn and 23,000-ft. Aconcagua; driven a Bugatti Veyron at 253 mph and an Indy car at 200 mph; pulled 9 Gs in an F-16; bobsledded with the U.S. Olympic team; flown through a Category 5 Hurricane (Dorian) in a C-130; visited deep nuclear missile silos in Minot, ND; hunted, and detonated, unexploded WWII ordnance with German police; taken a .38 point-blank wearing a bulletproof jacket (hurt); gone bull-fighting (hurt more - cracked ribs); figure-skated with Olympian Sasha Cohen (hurt most - concussion). I also have a ticket to fly to space with Virgin Galactic (passenger #369). Interviews with adventurers include Neil Armstrong, Sir Edmund Hillary, Sir Roger Bannister, Dr. Edward Teller, Chuck Yeager and Elon Musk. You get the idea: I like to push limits and inspire others to do the same. My books include "Forbes To The Limits" and "The Right Stuff: Interviews With Icons Of The 1960s." I profile classic rock stars, too, having interviewed Art Garfunkel, Jack Bruce, Ginger Baker, Roger Daltrey, Ian Anderson, John Fogerty, Dion Dimucci, Grace Slick, Eric Burdon, Pete Townshend, John Kay, and more, all to be included in my upcoming book, “Amplified.” My education includes an MBA from Columbia University, and a BA from the University of Maryland.
