After 2 well-received factuals for the ABC, Todd Sampson has filmed a new series for TEN, BodyHack with Todd Sampson.

The Gruen panelist, who is also a regular on The Project, tests himself in extreme situations in the Himalayas, the Amazon, New Mexico, Borneo and Africa.

His latest adventures included stepping into the shoes of a hunter-gatherer in Tanzania, becomeing a professional cage fighter in New Mexico, overcoming a fear of the open sea in an unassisted sea floor dive in Borneo and working as a Himalayan sherpa.

“How we understand our body, how we understand the world around us is relevant to everyone, without exception, and the way to understand people is to walk in their shoes. It’s easy to observe, it’s very difficult to step into their world. I believe that in life, not just in documentary making,” he told Fairfax.

The series is due later this year.
