Chris Ryans book was a good read and he made the point that if he hadnt been in such good physical shape he wouldnt have survived the E&E infact its the same point some posters made about the 6 week survival challenge bulk up to help the body survive.
I dont know if it was shown in America but Chris Ryan did a tv series called Chasing Chris Ryan where he is set E&E challenges while pursued by a hunter force of ex SF both British and American ex Royal Marines, Paras, US Seals.
He dose well, very well actually as he manages to piss the hunter force right off !!
