"Long before Indiana Jones, there was David Miln Smith . . . Arguably the first modern adventurer/athlete." Neil Feineman, Prime Health and Fitness Magazine

His career as an adventurer/humanist spans over three decades in his quest to discover, experience, and embrace the highest and best of the human spirit. His career has demanded that he become an expert on health & fitness, risk-taking, world travel, outdoor adventure as a cross-cultural tool, team building, and making friends. In a fast-paced world too pressed for formulas, tips, and sound bites, his expertise is fresh, rare, unconventional and invaluable.

"To hear David Smith speak is to fall in love with life all over again," commented Larry Frye, a member of the Young President's Organization, after hearing David speak. David's adventure stories never fail to generate laughter and inspire awe as he tells of athletic feats, and connections of the heart with people and places all over the globe. Through accounts of courage, creativity, and peak performance in some of the world's most famous geographical landmarks, he motivates people to embrace their fears, get more out of life and take on new challenges.

A world class adventurer not just in body, but in mind and spirit as well, his presentations spark high levels of enthusiasm in audiences of all ages. Because he has literally put his life on the line many times, he's an authority on managing fear and overcoming self-imposed limits. A master storyteller, he speaks from personal experience to entertain, teach, motivate and inspire. David graduated Summa Cum Laude from the University of West Florida and holds a Ph.D. in Heath and Human Services. He has created pioneering wilderness challenge and healing programs for corporate executives, high level athletes, inner city drug addicts and schizophrenic patients.
