Outside of his military career, some of Fox’s bigger adventures include rowing across the Atlantic ocean from Lagos, Portugal to Macuro, Venezuela in 2016 with four of his mates Aldo Kane, Matthew Bennett, Ros Johnson and Oliver Bailey. Known as Team Essence, their expedition [13] took the crew 50 days over 3,308 nautical miles, and landed them a record for becoming the first team to row unsupported, crossing the Atlantic Ocean from east to west - from mainland Europe to South America, non-stop from mainland to mainland.

In 2023, Jason rejoined the Directing Staff of Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins, with the first episode broadcast on the 26th of September 2023. In 2019, Fox alongside Sean Johnson kayaked the length of the Yukon river [15] over 1,980 miles in Alaska. The adventure started with a 49-mile hike from Skagway to Lake Bennet, where the kayak journey stretched from Lake Bennett to the Bering Sea, across 48 days. The expedition was unsupported, with Johnson and Fox raising awareness and funds for Royal Navy and Royal Marines Charity. [16] Don’t be too alpha“Don’t give it the big ‘I am’. Do that in the wrong situation and you’re dead. You’ve got to gauge the environment and respond accordingly.”

Foxy says he would like the same intensity levels to be retained as he and his colleagues love giving the “celebrities a rinsing”. He adds with a smile: “That is always good fun.” Foxy is the first to admit he still can’t believe how much his life has changed since SAS started six years ago and became a household name.
