I Am Not What Happened to Me - Extreme Sports Athlete | Damien Rider

Damien Rider is a multiple world record holding adventure and extreme sports athlete and a world renowned wellness and mindset coach. 

This man recently skydived off the top of a hot air balloon at 7 and a half thousand feet - he’s pushed a 3 tonne truck down the Gold Coast highway - skateboarded for 56 days through the Mojave desert and completed an entire marathon carrying a mattress on his shoulder and that's not all…

Damien pulls off these mind-blowing feats to prove nothing is impossible and he does it all in the name of raising awareness for survivors of complex trauma like himself.  Damien suffered horrific child abuse throughout his young life and grew up without the tools to make sense of what happened to him…

He abused drugs to try to escape and ultimately made multiple attempts on his life before beginning his truly extraordinary turnaround.

He’s been crowned Men’s Health Man of the Year and is a 2 time Australian of the Year nominee. You’d be hard pressed to find a story more worth hearing than this one…
