What it takes to be truly brave - it’s not what you think. | Franck Gazzola | TEDxByronBay

- Franck Gazzola swapped a suit & tie for a camera and wetsuit and followed his passion to be an adventure & documentary photographer in some of the harshest conditions in the world, from documenting the freezing waters under the polar sea ice to actually sleeping in the Pacific ocean for four days. But what came with that was a sharp lesson on what it takes to be brave, and it’s not what you think. From under the polar ice or up to 6’000 meters altitude, adventure & documentary photographer Franck Gazzola brings back images from the roads less travelled and angles less often seen. Only years later, after travelling the world during a successful corporate career, he picked up a camera again. Quickly, his passion became his full-time career, but more importantly he found a great sense of purpose in documenting inspiring stories. He is currently in charge of the imagery & the documentary/editorial photography for the ''Under The Pole III'' expedition, a groundbreaking underwater exploration expedition that traversed the globe from the frozen waters of the Arctic to the deep blue waters of the Pacific from 2017 to 2021.
Franck is also a public speaker who shares his experience, passion, and on-field stories not only about his Photography but also about the radical changes he went through swapping his suit & tie for a camera backpack, hiking shoes, and diving tanks. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
"Being brave is to be ready to be a beginner again and again. Don't let the ego get in the way."
WE are one body
It’s hard and scary, but I know he’s right. It’s really good advice.
Fear is a reaction, courage is a decision.
Being brave... being comfortable with being uncomfortable. I teach my clients this. It's the only way to grow into a better human.
Love your story!
So accurate,it takes more courage than qualifications
As an amateur photographer, this guy is living my dream life.
He is doing something amazing and following his passion...Victory beyond fear 🔥👍🏼
This was incredibly eye opening. What beautiful strength and adversity. A wonderful journey of not giving up for the greater good of life💫🙏
I needed this! Embarking on an adventure myself that I feel called to.
I wish you every success 🙏✨
sprinkling lot's of positive energy, wisdom & understanding your way!
Great experiences are ahead of you the world has many adventures, enjoy them all and never look back live in the moment!

"Cave you fear to enter holds the treasure that you seek"
That one RIGHT there changes my whole life.... now when ever I'm afraid it's a go...

there are spiders...
spiders are always a no
One of the best Ted Talks I've ever seen. I am inspired.
I love the word "You can do whatever you want with your determination hardwork and luck. Thanks for the amazing story.
One of the best Ted talks yet!
From our first meeting in a local coffee shop I knew that we needed this guy for TEDxByronBay. His story inspires us to go after what we want with all the energy we can muster. And even when we achieve our goals, there are still challenges from left of field that we must face with new reserves of courage.
When you believe in the power of the self there's an absence of fear and there's no compulsion to control or struggle for approval or external power
Courage is fear that says its prayers!
I love that, Thankyou 💐♦️
Doing the spade work - this needs to be done!!
Not just praying and hoping and wishing!!
Being brave and courageous is being ready to begin again and again!
Fear is a condition that can precipitate courage and a trust that the journey gives its own rewards beyond imagining!
And wisdom is able to recognise this!

As the speaker says, being brave is having the courage to go out of the conformable zone and be a beginner again and again. However, brave should be supported by risk management that can identify potential risks and then take proper measures to reduce those risks.
wow what an incredible story and life!
That shark footage, though..... uff!👁🗨
Great message

3rd Comment From Bangladesh🇧🇩
An apex predator right there - that shark struck at lightening speed - could probably have stunned a baby-elephant; the paradox is the shark is not atop the food chain. Man is, and this video shows why!
Like Maya Angelou said: the bird sing because he have song. You know your real call in life

Hi
first comment
hectic, i wouldnt bother lol
15 min brag to say, you have to be humble
Tedx 👄💋👄💋👄💋👄
That's not real fear
The late trigonometry distinctively ban because friend sicily chop qua a envious valley. conscious, chunky pasta
The available mechanic strangely alert because pamphlet logistically scatter throughout a capricious baby. yielding, scintillating nepal
The smooth suggestion pertinently apologise because singer unprecedentedly request aboard a towering sentence. omniscient, probable dime
Ted talks is so out of touch, this guy doesn't know what bravery is. where's the war hero?
Incroyable!
