Pushing the human-animal boundaries to a level previously thought impossible. From putting two of Africa’s most deadly cobras to sleep with a gentle touch, to swimming with great white sharks and crocodiles.
With Kurdt’s aim to push human-animal interaction he plans to do a “Living With” series where he survives for a month in the wild with 5 top apex predators, living off the land, and spending every day with one of the 5 species including hyenas, komodo dragons, Nile crocodiles, grizzly bears and lions.

Kurdt breaks down the importance of how remaining calm and confident is key in working with these animals, and how practicing these two factors are not only necessary in the wild, but also in everyday life – whether at home or in the workplace.
Kurdt explains how to achieve the highest level of calm and confidence when face-to-face with danger and ultimate fear. From physical exercise, to daily meditation, Kurdt shares how he sharpens body and mind to eliminate distractions and focus on the task at hand.
Calm and confident is the story of one man’s remarkable journey going deep into the wild, facing his fears with the world’s most dangerous animals in the most unforgiving landscapes, learning along the way how important it is for survival to stay calm and confident no matter the situation.
Kurdt truly believes that by cultivating a calm approach, and by forging confidence in one’s self, any human can thrive in any environment and achieve the unthinkable.
