About the Author
KY FURNEAUXโs determination to defy the impossible has fueled a remarkable career as a survivalist, stuntwoman, TV host, and motivational speaker. She has been a stunt double for Sharon Stone, Jennifer Garner, and Jaimie Alexander; Furneaux also produced and documented an extraordinary 100-mile hike across the Sierra Nevada mountain range, featured in three episodes of Discoveryโs Naked and Afraid, and was the only female in season two of Discoveryโs Ed Stafford: First Man Out, braving a 12,000-foot mountain climb and -22ยฐF temperatures. Although sheโs conquered grueling terrain in over 65 countries, Furneaux is passionate about her country, and she shared the beauty of the Australian bush in her Discovery and 7Mate series Outback Lockdown. Sheโs a wilderness warrior in the tradition of the late, great Steve Irwin and in her own words a โtrue survival nerd.โ
