We're not quite sure how this will work, but colour us intrigued...

Bear Grylls has presumably found some way to transition from 'TV adventurer/survivalist' to 'arena adventurer/survivalist' with a new show called 'Endeavour: Your Adventure Awaits' that he is touring across the UK and Ireland later this year.

Using groundbreaking technology, he promises to "take audiences on an immersive expedition across the globe, celebrating some of the greatest feats of courage, endurance and endeavour across the ages."

The blurb from the press release says: "Bear will guide the audience on a journey, uncovering true life stories of survival from frozen Antarctica and the cruel winds of Everest, to the humid jungle and shark-infested waters. The audience will be swept into the heart of the action, with worlds that appear and fade away before them, they will see the tiny detail of rock crumbling beneath Bear’s feet as he climbs and witness him seemingly swimming with sharks before their very eyes. Through dizzying aerial stunts and intimate storytelling, Bear will reveal the wonder of our planet and the important value of mankind’s indomitable human spirit."

It hits Belfast's SSE Arena on October 18th and Dublin's 3Arena on October 19th. Tickets are on sale this Friday at 9am from usual outlets, and the show is suitable for ages 8 and over.
