Serving almost 2 decades between them as Royal Marine Commandos, John & Ian left the forces and went looking for adventure. 'Summit To Sea' became their mission, a 5 stage journey across South America starting at Ecuador's highest mountain, and the highest point on earth, Chimborazo. Widely regarded as the source of the Amazon River, the team summited the mountain, and began the next stages of the journey, aiming to travel over 5000km along the Amazon. After conducting scientific research work in Iquitos, John & Ian continued on their way down the river, but it was not smooth sailing...
After being kidnapped twice previously, passing a pirate encampment on the riverbank launched a series of events that would lead to the pair being attacked & shot multiple times by pirates, and would see the activation of their SOS buttons and a military response to rescue them.
