Gethin Jones has been a regular fixture on TV screens for years, but away from the cameras he's experienced heartbreak, a near-death encounter and a dating app mix-up

He then shot to national fame as a Blue Peter presenter, where he took on challenges such as flying with the Red Arrows, learning to race like a jockey, and surviving the Bolivian jungle. Gethin Jones, the affable TV presenter, has shared some hair-raising tales from his time filming the BBC series, including a close call on a mountain and a terrifying encounter with a crocodile.
