I bet there are clips of Andrew Zimmer chowing down on bugs, too.

Caught an episode of Man vs. Wild Wednesday night. Bear Grylls (host)
got dropped off by chopper in a remote area of Alabama. He got some
whitewater in on a hand made raft, scaled a tree down a
What a dude--I'd love to try this kind of caving with Bear.

Whatever cave it was I'm betting it's not too far from a nice hotel.

Sounds like another episode I saw, where he got into a mine with a torch
that he dipped in kerosene. He went deeper, downclimbed a shaft, _then_
his torch went out (and I thought, In real life, that would pretty much
be 'game over') and he said how dangerous the whole thing was and he
kept
I lost interest in this guy and his show when I repeatedly saw him doing things
that were either unnecessary, dangerous, or just plain stupid.
Then, fraud and hoaxes were introduced.
Read below:
Read Bears disclaimer at the start of the show. Kinda kills the whole
thing. Recently, he tried to trap a caribou, when he failed, the land
steward provided one for him. He promptly lost most of the meat doing
something foolish, like climbing down a frozen waterfall. He is a

He has a all new season, these are all new.

They are all now in reruns, as he has retired from the show.

Is this the guy that claims to be doing his own photography, sound, and all
that? If so, I've seen a few bits of it and don't buy into it 100%. My guess
is that he's never alone--always got somebody standing by to lend a hand,
offer a suggestion, keep an eye on him to make sure he doesn't screw
Bear has a crew. Les is alone. Les' show was called Survivorman.
Bear's is Man vs Wild.

That's him, Gill, but he does have an emergency radio with him.
He also gets training in the local flora and other conditions in order to know
the terrain and food sources available.
Other than that, he's on his own.
He's one tough dude and I admire what he does and how he does it.
He's
Support crew, such as in the show Survivor, of which I have only seen
advertising previews.

This one is awesome:
I'm in luck, he told viewers, apparently coming across four wild
horses grazing in a meadow. A chance to use an old Native American
mode of transport comes my way. This is one of the few places in the
whole of the U.S. where horses still roam wild.
In fact, Weinert said,
Ok, so maybe Bear has some help. Maybe he spits out the zebra corpse
and chases the taste away with big mac as soon as the shot is over.
He might even get foot rubs every night and sleep on siberian goose
down comforters with 1500 thread count Egyptian cotton sheets.
Regardless, he's a badass on

Camera doesn't show you ... probably a dozen support crew following Bear
behind the camera.

No, he always says he has a camera crew.
And He is a showman, as Gill says.
But he also is an amazingly strong guy who cannot stand to not push himself.
Look for the episode of him parasailing on Everest --- probably higher than
any man had done that.
Pretty amazing. Pretty dumb, too, if
