Real Men Eat Puffer Fish And 93 Other Dangerous Things To Consider

The Dangerous Book for Men obviously uses the Dangerous Book for Boys, but takes the ball and runs with it. It's a spoof, but not just a tired, lame parody: Twigger is deadly serious in a Hemingwayesque kind of way and sees this title as a natural extension of his 2002 book Being A Man. The action is more authentic -- he has plenty of experience of facing down bears, building coracles, swimming with sharks, playing high-stakes poker, removing fishhooks from his hands -- and will be mixed with the faintly ludicrous and un-PC (performing a tracheotomy; slitting the throat of a sheep 'Afghan fashion'; landing a Boeing 747).
