Neil Cole‘s new documentary series, Man Vs. Ride, will recieve its world première on Australian television next weekend.

The comedian – an early collaborator of Julian Barratt and – alongside Richard Glover & Phil Whelans – a founding member of Pros From Dover – has been doubling up in recent years as a television and radio presenter, with stints fronting the World Rally Championship on Dave, NME Radio’s daytime show and a roving reporter for the 2012 Olympic Games, to name but a few of his endeavours.

Since late last year, he has been crafting Man Vs. Ride for National Geographic – which will look into the science behind the biggest and best rides on earth.

The self confessed adrenaline junkie has toured the planet to take on the most terrifying rides he can find, and the results will be coming to a NG channel near you soon!

Australia is the first country to air the series, starting this Sunday evening at 8pm exclusively on Nat Geo Adventure.

For more info, a video of Neil racing a rollercoaster in a race car, and a rather fetching photo from Blackpool’s sea-front – visit their website over yonder!
