Tim Howell: Royal Marine to Wingsuit BASE Jumper – Mastering Fear | MTNPOD #162
About this episode
Tim Howell shares his journey from Royal Marine to elite wingsuit BASE jumper, discussing fear, risk, and mental toughness.
Former Royal Marine commando Tim Howell joins the MTNTOUGH Podcast to share his extraordinary journey from guiding clients through Big 5 territory in South Africa at 18, to earning his place in one of the world’s toughest military units, and now pushing the absolute limits as an elite wingsuit BASE jumper and mountain athlete. Tim breaks down how he views and conquers fear, the power of calculated risk versus reckless adrenaline, attention to detail, reserves in the tank, and why discomfort builds unbreakable mental toughness. From combat deployments and high-altitude expeditions to first BASE jumps and record attempts (including multiple tries on Lhotse), he reveals the mindset that separates survival from thriving at the edge of human performance. A raw, inspiring conversation for hunters, athletes, fathers, and any man ready to break fear, live with purpose, and stay dangerous in the present moment.
