Overview
For generations the French Foreign Legion has been romanticised as a refuge for men seeking a second chance in life. But what is the Legion really like?
In this four-part series adventurer and explorer Bear Grylls sets off for the Sahara Desert to find out. Along with 11 other volunteers, from ex-criminals to struggling businessmen, Bear puts himself through a month’s brutal training at an ex-Legion fort in the Western Sahara that is designed to replicate the rigours of the Legion’s own basic training, one of the most hardcore and agonising physical and mental challenges known to man.
