Over the Edge: A Regular Guy's Odyssey in Extreme Sports is the compelling record of Bane's adventures pushing himself to the limit - by participating in some of the world's most dangerous athletic pursuits. Traveling across the country and around the globe, Bane literally risked life and limb to attack thirteen death-defying sports on his "List."From a marathon in the hellish temperatures of Death Valley to whitewater rafting in Honduras, kayaking off a waterfall in New Zealand, diving in Florida's pristine underwater caves, bicycling through the mountains of Colorado at speeds 45 miles per hour, and swimming in shark-infested waters in the first leg of the Escape from Alcatraz triathlon, Bane's journey captures all of the exhilaration, excitement, and fear that have accompanied one man on his journey to the edge and back.
