Jared Maynard is a Canadian physiotherapist, strength coach, and competitive powerlifter who specializes in resilience through strength training. In January 2023, what began as a mild cold quickly escalated into Secondary Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), a rare and deadly hyper-inflammatory disorder. Despite being strong and healthy, Jared rapidly suffered multi-organ failure, including liver and kidney failure, requiring him to be placed on life support in the ICU for five weeks. Facing fatality odds often described as worse than a coin flip, doctors prepared his family for the worst, but he made a miraculous turnaround, earning him the nickname "Miracle Man" from ICU staff. Jared's survival was critically aided by his years of consistent strength training, with doctors confirming that the 40 pounds of muscle mass he lost served as a vital nutritional reserve during his illness. His harrowing recovery required him to relearn basic functions like walking, talking, and swallowing. Just over a year after leaving the hospital, Jared made a powerful return to the powerlifting platform on May 25, 2024, achieving a lifetime personal record deadlift of 501.5 lbs and a PR DOTS score. Jared continues to compete and uses his story—which includes facing the progressive genetic eye disease, Choroideremia (CHM)—to share the transformative power of strength and inspire others to persevere.

Part I:  Meet Vicky—a college graduate, physiotherapist, veteran, and expert skydiver living in the UK. Life was good; she cherished the serenity and freedom that skydiving brought her. Things took a turn for the better when she met the charming and handsome Sergeant Emile Cilliers of the Royal Air Force Physical Training Corps. He swept her off her feet, and they married two years later. Shortly after their wedding, they welcomed their first child. However, a troubling change began to unfold. Emile, who was once loving and attentive, became distant, distracted, and short-tempered. Vicky recognized the signs and suspected that he was lying, possibly even cheating. She was terribly hurt and desperate to understand what had gone wrong and what she could do to fix it. But nothing could have prepared her for the shocking turn her life was about to take. Immerse yourself in Part 1 'We Just Clicked" where the beginning of Vicky's struggle to survive starts.   PLANNING TO GOING TO CRIMECON LAS VEGAS MAY 2026?

In 2019, Jonathan Gegerson sought medical attention went he felt a lump on the right side of his neck.  After a couple of scans and a biopsy, he was diagnosed with salivary duct carcinoma, a rare form of head and neck cancer.  Jonathan survived, but not before enduring 67 sessions of radiation, 12 cycles of chemotherapy (carboplatin, taxol, herceptin) and seven surgeries.  He still undergoes a targeted therapy on a monthly basis, and the surgery has affected his speech and his diet, but Jonathan has resumed an active lifestyle that includes skiing and hiking.   Jonathan Gegerson thought his health was outstanding.  He was an active skier and liked to hike up Colorado's 14ers (mountains whose peaks exceed 14,000 feet), but was perplexed when he discovered a lump on the right side of his neck.   He did not waste any time seeking medical attention and went to his primary care physician.  She conducted a physical examination and asked if Jonathan had recently undergone a root canal or some dental procedure that could result in an infection.  When he said no, the doctor sent Jonathan to an oncologist, who called for a CT scan, a PET scan and a biopsy.  That's when he was diagnosed with head and neck cancer, even though at the time doctors could not specify what type of head and neck cancer.   His doctor in Colorado said Jonathan would need to undergo surgery, followed by radiation treatment and chemotherapy.  When Jonathan learned his care team had no experience with dealing with his type of cancer, he sought a second opinion from MD Anderson in Houston, Texas.  The doctors at MD Anderson suggested the same regimen, but Jonathan switched to them because they had experience dealing with salivary duct carcinoma.   His care team told him his treatment would result in a tightening of his face and would affect his speech, in addition to his ability to chew and swallow.   The chemotherapy regimen included carboplatin, taxol and herceptin.  He said the chemo left him weak and tired, especially two days after each round of treatment.  This, he said, was very frustrating because he was accustomed to being active.  During this time, the best he could do was go on short walks.   When Jonathan experienced a recurrence, he was placed on a targeted therapy of kadcyla and herceptin.  He eventually achieved survivorship but must continue to be on a monthly targeted therapy of unhertu and herceptin.   Jonathan Gegerson says his health is approximately 75 percent of what it was before his diagnosis, but he feels he blessed that he is living, is back to hiking and skiing, and hopes to continue skiing until he is 90 years old.   Additional Resources: Jonathan's Book: "Perspective C," available on Amazon and Kindle  https://a.co/d/4iW9BQ6

Dave Franke stared down the cartel in Mexico's blood-soaked Zacatecas — and lived. Now he tells Glenn the unfiltered truth: The cartels are “absolutely” operating inside the United States. Through raw, firsthand accounts, he rips the veil off the narco-satanic cult of Santa Muerte — the Saint of Death — and the savage brutality it fuels. Trump calls the cartels “the ISIS of the Western hemisphere,” and his Homeland Security Task Force has already seized thousands of terrorists and cartel operatives, two million fentanyl pills, and 70 tons of narcotics. But Dave warns: We've barely “scratched the surface.” Facing entrenched corruption, human trafficking, and a highly profitable drug trade, Glenn and Dave debate a radical fix — legalize drugs — and ask the explosive question: Does our government let the cartels thrive in exchange for intel, just like in "Ozark"? It's the story that neither Fox nor CNN would let Glenn tell finally coming to the light, but is it already too late?      GLENN'S SPONSORS:   Relief Factor: If you're living with aches and pains, see how Relief Factor, a daily drug-free supplement, could help you feel better and live better.

This is one of the wildest military redemption stories I've ever heard.Shawn Vance was a former college athlete who spiraled hard—stealing for the thrill, smoking weed daily, and eventually overdosing on meth he found while picking up trash on the freeway.

Should've, honestly.But instead… he enlisted in the Army through the 18X program and clawed his way into Special Forces.In this Urban Valor episode, Shawn walks us through the full ride—from near-death overdose and felony arrest, to surviving Green Beret selection, passing the Q-Course, and becoming a Special Forces Medic (18D).We break down:– How Special Forces Selection (SFAS) really works– Why so many 18X candidates fail out– What actually happens during the Q-Course and SERE– How the Army gave him the structure to turn it all aroundIf you're into real stories about resilience, transformation, and the ugly truth behind “elite” military training—this one's gonna hit.

On this day in Tudor history, 28 October 1479, a man was born who would rise to the highest offices of state, and somehow survive the reigns of four Tudor monarchs. I'm historian and author Claire Ridgway, and today I'm talking about Sir John Gage: soldier, administrator, and courtier to Henry VII, Henry VIII, Edward VI, and Mary I. Gage's life was a masterclass in cautious loyalty. He held the keys to the Tower of London, helped dissolve the monasteries, investigated conspiracies, and stood at the heart of Tudor power through decades of religious and political upheaval. But what was he really: a man of faith and duty, or a shrewd survivor in a dangerous age? Join me as we explore the extraordinary life of Sir John Gage, the Tudor who managed to keep his head while those around him lost theirs. Tell me in the comments: Was Gage's careful loyalty wisdom… or opportunism? #OnThisDay #TudorHistory #SirJohnGage #TowerofLondon #HenryVIII #MaryI #EdwardVI #HenryVII #Tudors #TudorCourt#TheAnneBoleynFiles

The Fight for the Nanina and Charles Barnard's Return to the Sea Eric J. Dolan Left for Dead: Shipwreck, Treachery, and Survival at the Edge of the World Barnard and his party survived 534 days in wretched conditions, primarily thanks to their sizable dog, Scent, who hunted wild hogs. When rescued by British whale ships and taken to Lima, Peru, Barnard regretfully gave Scent to a British whaling captain, believing the dog deserved a better life than an arduous two-year voyage home. Barnard returned home bankrupt, but Murray and Son successfully appealed the prize court's initial decision. The court ultimately sided with the Americans, awarding them the value of the brig—a ruling Danda resented for the rest of his life. Though initially vowing to quit the sea, Barnard resumed sealing and later became a port warden and light ship captain, publishing his account in 1829.

Join hosts Kaycee McIntosh and Julie Henningsen on The Crux True Survival Story Podcast as they share the remarkable story of Zach DeMoss, a 24-year-old motorcyclist whose perfect afternoon ride along Idaho's Highway 12 turned into a desperate fight for survival. In August 2024, a split-second decision to avoid a deer sent Zach airborne—launching him 40 feet through the air into the remote Idaho wilderness. What happened next would test the absolute limits of human endurance and willpower. Separated from his motorcycle, facing catastrophic injuries, and trapped in one of the most isolated stretches of backcountry in the lower 48, Zach had to make an impossible choice: give in to overwhelming pain and despair, or find a way to survive against impossible odds. This gripping episode explores the realities of wilderness trauma, the psychology of survival, and the thin line between life and death when you're truly alone. It's a story about resilience, determination, and why some people refuse to give up—even when giving up seems like the only option. 00:00 Welcome to the Crux True Survival Story Podcast 00:30 A Ride Through Idaho's Wilderness 01:04 The Crash: A Split-Second Decision 01:29 Zachary DeMoss: The Fight for Survival Begins 02:22 The Dangerous Beauty of Highway 12 07:03 The Physics of a Motorcycle Crash 13:52 Freddy the Hero Dog 15:15 Zach's Desperate Measures for Survival 17:40 The Search Efforts Begin 19:49 The Agonizing Waiting Game 21:57 The Agonizing Wait 23:09 The Search Begins 24:32 The Wilderness Challenge 25:31 Scaling Back the Search 25:52 A Friend's Determination 27:17 The Miraculous Discovery 30:19 The Rescue Operation 31:47 Zach's Recovery 35:44 Lessons Learned 38:18 Final Thoughts and Reflections Primary Sources Biker survives in Idaho wilderness for five days by drinking creek water after crash - CNN https://www.cnn.com/2024/08/24/us/zachary-demoss-found-idaho/index.html Detailed account of DeMoss's survival, rescue by Greg Common, and use of leather jacket for water collection A month lost in the North Cascades without food or shelter: Hiker details improbable rescue - Cascadia Daily https://www.cascadiadaily.com/2024/sep/19/a-month-lost-in-the-north-cascades-without-food-or-shelter-hiker-details-improbable-rescue/ Background information on wilderness survival and search operations Montana man survives in Idaho wilderness for five days after motorcycle crash - NBC News https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/injured-montana-man-survives-creek-water-5-days-motorcycle-crash-mount-rcna167935 Details on search efforts and DeMoss's survival methods Missing Missoula area motorcyclist found alive in Idaho - KPAX https://www.kpax.com/news/missoula-county/search-continues-for-missoula-area-motorcyclist-reported-missing-in-idaho Timeline of official search operations and rescue coordination Injured Montana man survives on creek water for 5 days after motorcycle crash on mountain - NBC Montana https://www.nbcmontana.com/news/local/injured-montana-man-survives-on-creek-water-for-5-days-after-motorcycle-crash-on-mountain Information on DeMoss's injuries and mother's statements Montana motorcyclist missing for 5 days swerved to miss a deer - Cowboy State Daily https://cowboystatedaily.com/2024/08/19/montana-motorcyclist-missing-for-5-days-swerved-to-miss-a-deer/ Details about riding companions' search efforts and decisions Biker survives in Idaho wilderness for five days by drinking creek water after crash - Yahoo News https://www.yahoo.com/news/biker-survives-idaho-wilderness-five-194310043.html Greg Common's search efforts and discovery details Missing Missoula biker found alive in Idaho - Montana Right Now https://www.montanarightnow.com/missoula/missoula-county-sheriff-looking-for-missing-man-last-contacted-in-kooskia-idaho-on-sunday/article_190f2978-5996-11ef-903d-8bbba8c64081.html Official law enforcement response and search coordination Motorcyclist Zachary Demoss found alive after five days missing - Clearwater Tribune https://www.clearwatertribune.com/news/community_news/motorcyclist-zachary-demoss-found-alive-after-five-days-missing/article_d9b7adec-5fe7-11ef-83ca-9ffd42fd7f2e.html Details on crash location and rescue timeline Additional Resources Idaho County Sheriff's Office - Official statements and press releases regarding search operations U.S. Border Patrol - Search and rescue coordination information Providence St. Patrick Hospital, Missoula, MT - Medical treatment facility Geographic and Route Information Clearwater-Lochsa Scenic Byway (Highway 12) - Route description and characteristics Idaho Department of Transportation - Highway safety information Wilderness Medicine Context Wilderness First Aid and medical trauma information provided by Julie Henningsen, Headwaters Field Medicine Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

SEND US A MESSAGE! We'd Love to Chat With you and Hear your thoughts! We'll read them on the next episode. The history of racism in our country has evolved into narratives that have been created out of thin air in order to justify hatred that inherently dwells in our hearts. What does the response to racism, hatred, evil look like in the children of God outside of the US?  This is the story of Rose Mapendo, a survivor of the Rwandan/DRC genocide and a sister in Christ. Her story is gut-wrenching yet her faith is encouraging and convicting. Trapped in prison camp awaiting execution, the Lord did for her what He does for all of His children - he strengthened her with a peace that will surpass your very understanding of peace. It will also confound your understanding of forgiveness in a way that could truly bring healing, peace and revival to our country amidst the cold war of race-rhetoric and "injustice" claims. Listen closely to the raw, uncut story of a woman who depended on the Lord and was granted a strength that only He could provide. The Tutsi/Rwandan GenocideHutus/Tutsi RacismSUPPORT THE ROSE MAPENDO FOUNDATIONSupport the showHosts: Brandon and Daren Smith Learn of Brandon's Church Planting CallPatreon: www.patreon.com/blackandblurredPaypal: https://paypal.me/blackandblurredYouTube: Black and Blurred PodcastIG: @BlackandBlurredPodcastX: @Blurred_Podcast

Assyrian Resilience: Leadership and Perpetual Warfare after 1177 BC AUTHOR NAME: Eric Cline BOOK TITLE: After 1177 BC, The Survival of Civilizations Professor Cline analyzes why societies like the Assyrians survived the 1177 BC collapse, identifying their successful leadership and redundant systems (government, military, writing). Since trade partners vanished, Assyrian leaders resorted to war almost yearly to acquire necessary resources. Their complex relationship with the Babylonians involved periods of alliance and fighting until the Babylonians eventually defeated them centuries later.

Two years ago today, five terrorists broke into Eli Sharabi's safe room on Kibbutz Be'eri. He had been sheltered there for hours with his wife, Lianne, and teenage daughters, Noiya and Yahel, reading horrific texts flooding in from neighbors and hoping somehow his family would be spared. They were not. The terrorists shot and killed their dog, then dragged Eli away, leaving his family behind. As they pulled him out the door, he looked back and shouted: “I'll come back!” After 491 days in Hamas captivity, Eli did come back. He survived—with most of his time buried deep underground, shackled, starved, subjected to constant humiliation, and psychological and physical torture—all because he believed he would one day be reunited with his wife and daughters. That belief kept him alive. But when he was released on February 8 under a ceasefire agreement, he soon learned the devastating truth: Lianne, Noiya, and Yahel were dead. Hamas murdered them on October 7, 2023. His brother Yossi, also kidnapped, had been killed in captivity as well.  Eli's memoir, Hostage, out today, is the first published account by a released Israeli hostage. He writes in unflinching detail about being held in the tunnels, about his Hamas captors, and about his singular focus on survival. We read the book, through tears, last week on Yom Kippur, the holiest day on the Jewish calendar. Yom Kippur is a day of atonement and forgiveness, but it's really a day of reckoning with life and death. The story Jews around the world read that morning is of Moses's final speech to the Israelites before his death, delivered as they stand on the edge of the Promised Land—after slavery in Egypt, after 40 years of wandering in the desert and the loss of an entire generation. Moses tells them: “I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse. Therefore choose life, so that you and your descendants may live.” If anyone has earned a right to despair, to give up on life, it's Eli Sharabi. But he doesn't. What's remarkable about Eli is that he chose—and continues to choose—survival at every turn. He chooses life in the face of death. Again and again and again. Learn more about your ad choices.
