The Unrelenting Pursuit of Excellence. That's what Dean Stott's chasing - a 16-year career Veteran, Dean's started his military service by joining the SBS, an elite special forces unit of the United Kingdom. In 2011, an injury pushed Dean into the private security sector, providing expertise to governments, presidents, and royals, including single-handedly evacuating the Canadian Embassy in Libya in 2014. Then in 2016, Dean set his sights on a new challenge - cycling all 14,000 miles of the Pan-American Highway, a feat he completed while nabbing two world records to boot.
An author, a speaker, and a personal friend of England's Prince Harry, it's safe to say Dean's got no shortage of incredible stories from his globetrotting work in protecting the people that matter most, from everyday citizens to the most privileged among us. But what's the real difference between an SBS Operator and their U.S. counterpart? How does one go about evacuating an entire embassy, alone, under threat of danger? And how exactly does someone manage to cycle the entire length of the American continent in just 99 days? Let's meet Dean.
