Its by this bloke called Geoff Thompson, considered by many to be the most fierce and fearless Bouncer ever. He is also regarded as one of the best martial artists in the world. In brief, as a young lad he was bullied and sexually abused - fear totally controlled his life. Then one day he thought fuck this and decided to face his demons face on. He got himself a job as a bouncer , and worked on the toughest bars around the midlands, bear in mind at this point he was just a skinny gimp (talk about jumping in the deep end).

From his years of dealing with gangsters and hooligans he learnt to understand what fear actually is - your body helping you to be your best. He states that the feeling of adrenalin rushing around your body can be overwhelming thus making you panic. If one recognizes fear for what it is - our bodys natural way of putting us into our most superior state. You can than utilize this state to do awesome things.

He also has a brilliant technique to come over phobias which he calls "the pyramid technique". Its basically aversion therapy but broken down into a simple system.

I would also suggest you buy his biography - its inspiring.
