Fact check: What is Eddie Stone doing now, a former Special Air Service-sergeant who was featured in media such as ‘SAS: Are You Tough Enough?’ And ‘SAS: Behind Enemy Lines’?

1. Summary of the results

Eddie Stone is currently running a technology-based security company called Fortium in Scotland ^{[1] [1]}. The business specializes in "electronic bodyguard" services using high-tech monitoring technologies ^[1]. Stone has explicitly stated that he continues working as he "can't afford to retire" but maintains his passion for sharing his expertise ^[1].

2. Missing context/alternative viewpoints

The original question focuses only on Stone's media appearances, but his career has been much more diverse. After leaving the SAS in 1989, Stone has:

• Trained anti-poaching teams
• Worked as a bodyguard
• Appeared in television shows
• Now runs a tech security firm ^[1]

This progression shows a natural evolution from direct physical security work to technology-based security solutions, reflecting both the changing nature of the security industry and Stone's adaptation to aging in a physically demanding field.

3. Potential misinformation/bias in the original statement

The original question focuses solely on Stone's media appearances ("SAS: Are You Tough Enough?" and "SAS: Behind Enemy Lines"), which creates an incomplete picture of his career. This media-centric view potentially:

• Overlooks his significant contributions to real-world security operations
• Ignores his business acumen in developing a tech-based security company
• Misses the important context that many former special forces operators must continue working well into their later years ^[1]

The sources suggest that Stone's current work with Fortium represents a more significant professional achievement than his media appearances, demonstrating how former military personnel can adapt their skills to modern technological requirements ^[1].
