Matt took his first steps towards his quite extreme way of living at the age of only 15, when he dived into the world of rock climbing and triathlon. At the age of 17 he temporarily settled down in the Yosemite Valley, California, where he began learning primitive survival skills from the Native American tribes of Paiute and Miwok, while at the age of 20, Matt served as a search and rescue tracker in the Sierra Nevada Mountains’ Sequoia National Park in California. This engagement not only helped Matt to boost his skills, but also provided the basis for his current net worth.
At that time, young Matt also put some efforts towards mastering the skills of traveling without any food or equipment, and at the age of 23, he ran 1,750 miles (around 2,800 km) on the Pacific Crest Trail in just 58 days. Due to a lack of transportation, Matt also travelled across Arizona and California by foot, covering a distance of up to 50 miles (80 km) a day. At the age of 24, Graham landed a job at the Boulder Outdoor Survival School in Utah, where he taught others how to survive in the wilderness. Doubtlessly, this engagement helped Matt Graham to add a sum to the total of his wealth.
In 2013, Matt appeared in Discovery Channel’s reality TV competition series “Dude, You’re Screwed”. However into the real limelight he came in 2014, when he was cast for the fourth season of another Discovery Channel TV’s survival show – “Dual Survival”. Being featured in 10 episodes through its three seasons, Matt dramatically boosted not only his popularity but also his net worth.
In 2016, Matt appeared in the National Geographic Channel’s reality TV series “Life Free or Die”. Apart from all those already mentioned above, Graham has served as a special consultant for Les Stroud’s TV documentary series “Survivorman” as well as CBS TV’s “The Amazing Race”, and also provided his expertise to the Trial Runner and Wilderness Way magazines. He is a primitive-living teacher and surviving skills instructor for the Ansari Outdoor Program too, as well as an outdoor instructor for the Young Marines and Canadian Cadets. Doubtlessly, all these endeavors have helped Matt Graham to increase the size of his wealth as well.
Matt Graham is not only a survivalist but also a top-class hunter – he is an unofficial world champion of the atlatl, a special spear-thrower, as well as a long bow master. Besides these, he is also a skillful martial artist, experienced in Taekwondo, Jeet Kune Do, Judo and Wushu Kung Fu.
In his personal life, Matt Graham’s unique and rather primitive way of living includes spending up to six months per year in the wilderness of the Utah mountains, living fully connected to nature – sleeping in a hand-made shelter, gathering food, hunting and brain-tanning hides to make his own clothes. There is no public information about any romantic relationship – Mat is presumed to still be single.
