25 Years ago today I joined the Australian Army as a helicopter pilot. It was a freakin awesome job!🚁 I got to see Australia, East Timor (pictured) and Papua New Guinea from the air, and land in truly amazing places. I highly recommend it as a job. @AustralianArmy
Mad sewing skills, Archer!🏹 10 year old Archer handcrafted his #bookweek2023 costume all by himself (fish, top and satchel!) Good on you mate!!!🐠🐠🐠

🧢 I now have merch available on my website (link in bio, click on ‘SHOP’ in the menu). My wife helped me choose the designs so you get her style and my practicality😂 Great for Fathers Day on 3rd September. Thanks!!! outbackmike.com/shop/
🥶I compared a merino loft jacket from @icebreakernz against the trusty down jacket I’ve used for 20 years. #movetonatural #freegift #coldweathersurvival
🥶Cotton, synthetic or merino thermals. What’s best for outdoor adventures (hint🐏🔥)? Thanks @icebreakernz for the merino thermals I torched. I was genuinely surprised by how fire retardant they were. #movetonatural #freegift #coldweathersurvival
They may have been Alone in Tasmania, but not on the Logies Red Carpet! #Logies
So cool to walk the red carpet with @GinaChickRewild to represent #AloneAustralia in the best documentary category! Handy hint for beginners; try not to tread on anyone’s dress (guilty, sorry Gina😳) @TVWEEKmag @SBS @SBSOnDemand
🐟 My bling for the #logies2023 ‘Tarpsedo’ is sorted, despite the 🐈 No. It doesn’t stink (much). @TVWEEKmag #mansewing #hybpa #AloneAustralia @SBS @SBSOnDemand @WarOnWasteAus #fashionweek #logies
👧🧒Lots of kids are enjoying the book! 10 year old Harper read the whole thing by herself (awesome job!!!!). Younger kids, are having it read to them by their parents. There are a few swear words but believe me they were all warranted!😂 #moderndaycastawaybook
There has been a huge surge in demand for survivalist classes, but it's not preppers wanting to know how to survive off the land, but those looking to escape rising supermarket prices. Survivalist @Outback_Mike explains.
🧵My hand-sewn tarp suit made from #AloneAustralia 10 items is finished! I just need to spice it up with some bush bling. Happy to take suggestions. Only a week until the #logies2023 @SBSOnDemand @TVWEEKmag
Here we go… The first stage of my #logies2023 tuxedo made entirely from my #aloneaustralia 10 items. 👑 I’m only half done, with finishing touches, pants and ‘bling’ left to go. My wife is still talking to me as well… we just don’t mention the ‘suit’🤣 @SBS @SBSOnDemand
I need a suit for the Logies (Australian TV awards) because #aloneaustralia has been nominated for best doco! Rather than the waste materials on a new suit I’m going to make one from the 10 items and equipment I took on the show. @SBS_Australia @SBSOnDemand #logies2023 #logies
🛶I’m taking the dugout canoe and my #aloneaustralia gear on a meet & greet book signing tour! SYDNEY 15-16 Jul, 9am-3pm, Manly SLSC NELSON BAY 23 Jul, 8am-2pm Tomaree Markets BRISBANE 26-27 Aug, 10am-5pm, Brisbane Outdoor Adventure Festival. #moderndaycastawaybook
🎧Recording the audiobook has taken a month. The technical standards for major platforms is high so I was super happy when it passed! It’s available on major platforms like Spotify, Apple and Google Play. Full list here; outbackmike.com/modern-day-cas…. It should be on Audible soon too.
📕If you’ve finished reading Modern-Day Castaway please consider leaving a review on Amazon or Goodreads (or both😂). 🙏 So far the feedback has been fantastic! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟on Goodreads and several people have read it all in one go!🤪 Thanks again for all the support!
📕Yes! All the pre-orders are on there way (600+ books!). Thanks so much for your support. #moderndaycastawaybook #survivingthegreatbarrierreefexpedition #booklaunch outbackmike.com/product/modern…
🥥 50 days straight of eating coconut and I never got sick of it. They last for months, provide food and drink, and (!!!!) coconut water can be used as an emergency substitute for blood plasma via intravenous injection. #moderndaycastawaybook #coconut

@Outback_Mike @TVWEEKmag @SBS @SBSOnDemand @WarOnWasteAus Taking it to the next level, gold 😅Have a great night!

We’ve always been fashion backward in our family 🤩🤣 Go Mike!!
I need a suit for the Logies (Australian TV awards) because #aloneaustralia has been nominated for best doco! Rather than the waste materials on a new suit I’m going to make one from the 10 items and equipment I took on the show. @SBS_Australia @SBSOnDemand #logies2023 #logies
@Outback_Mike Hey there @Outback_Mike Loved your will power and intelligence in your appearance in alone Aussie Must say I love Gina but you had it my friend Proud of you non the less. Will power is one skill you can teach ☺️ Where can I obtain your book as a Canadian from Ontario pmme
This is a suit we can't wait to see!

A real treat to see the public display and tour behind the scenes at Sea Jellies Illuminated tonight with @GriffithJellies. What a great research facility and cool collaboration between @Griffith_Uni and Sea World.
@Outback_Mike @SBS_Australia @SBSOnDemand Amazing! 👏 😄
@Outback_Mike Mate you were an absolute gun in Alone. Fantastic effort.
@Outback_Mike Cannot wait to read it Mike! From your 2nd cousin Kim from canada
Check out this mad solo adventure. No food, no water in North Australia. The bloke has balls the size of watermelons “Surviving the Outback” @Outback_Mike
Outback Mike creating his own suit from 10 items from the show. From the looks of the item list it's definitely going to be sharp. @SBS_Australia @SBSOnDemand #logies2023 #logies

@Outback_Mike @SBS_Australia @SBSOnDemand Your ingenuity was joyous to behold! Hope you make a full return to peak fitness and get some quality time with your family.
@Outback_Mike @SBS @SBSOnDemand Pretty impressed with your grit Mike, you endured many long, cold & lonely days with no food. I’ve watched every season of Alone and not seen many people grind it out like you did.
@Outback_Mike @SBS_Australia @SBSOnDemand For the record, I don’t like how the show was edited to leave you open for public criticism and to leave another contestant looking more ‘likeable’. It was a biased production, and I hope you have a thick skin against the unfair social media criticism.
