DISCOVERY CHANNEL PUTS REVOLUTIONARY SURVIVAL PRODUCTS TO THE TEST IN SPECIAL EPISODE OF "BATTLE TESTED" AIRING FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 7 AT 10PM ET/PT

Each year, defense and survival companies spend billions developing new products, from extreme weather gear to bullet proof glass. At Fieldcraft Survival, Founder Mike Glover and Director of Operations Kurt Hohan are hired to put those new products through some of the most rigorous tests on the planet. With over 35 years combined experience in Special Operations, Mike and Kurt have the training and expertise to conduct the most intense research and development imaginable, helping bring the best products to market.

In this special episode of BATTLE TESTED, Mike and Kurt push an electric bike - The Typhoon - to its limits. Created by Hi Power Cycles, The Typhoon bike has a top speed of 35 mph and can potentially be an incredibly agile way of getting around for both soldiers in combat, and dozens of civilian uses. Mike and Kurt put the bike through the wringer - dropping it out of a plane, testing its maneuverability on a wide variety of terrain and its durability in extreme scenarios to make sure it will hold up when lives are at stake.

BATTLE TESTED airs Friday, September 7 at 10PM ET/PT on Discovery Channel.
