About the speaker
Paul de Gelder : IMPROVISE… ADAPT… OVERCOME…
These three words – a mantra of the Australian Army – always resonated with Paul de Gelder. But they would take on new meaning after he was attacked by a shark in February 2009. Paul lost two limbs, and his career as an elite navy clearance diver was flung into jeopardy.
Drawing on everything his eventful life had taught him – from his wild teen years to his haul up the ranks of the defense forces – Paul left nothing to chance in his recovery. He fought through excruciating pain, smashing challenge after challenge, and amazed the medical staff with his will to succeed. His inspiring story takes ‘never say die’ to a whole new level.
Prior to being attacked by a shark, Paul de Gelder’s two major fears were sharks and public speaking. However since that day in 2009, Paul has become a fierce advocate for sharks and an internationally renowned keynote speaker.
Paul’s inspiring story, as detailed in his autobiography No Time for Fear takes the saying “never say die” to a whole new level. Since stepping away from full time Navy Service in 2012, Paul has been a guest on many US Talk shows and is perhaps best known for co-hosting documentaries for Discovery Channel’s Shark Week, including swimming with bull sharks, the species that attacked him. Paul also became part of an anti-poaching team in Africa to hunt poachers and film the amazing work done by the Rangers there for Fearless, aired on NatGeo.
His story has the power to mesmerize audiences in a way few other speakers can.
