For anyone who has not seen that show….you have no idea what you are missing!

You get good vit-a-mins from alu-min-i-um and the glass-ial wata! Lemme eat dis here 2 foot grub for protein! That dude is nuts…

Everything he picks up…he eats. I am scared that he is going to pick up a dead, rotting, animal carcass.

I think I remember seeing him eat dead reindeer and zebra!

12 favourite scenes where Bear either eats something gross, does something gross or gets nekkid (which isn’t gross). Enjoy! The one where Bear is manhandled by a Scottish bog
Though surprised by the depth of the stinky pit of stink, Bear is able to swim to the side and heave himself free from what would’ve been certain death.

The one where Bear fashions a spear from a branch and goes fishing
Bear ventures – shirtless – into the waters around a deserted island to spear some marine-life. He must be careful to not spear a moray eel because they’re nasty and possibly fatal.

The one where Bear gets the runs and makes out with a tree
Costa Rica – Bear drinks tainted stream water and gets mild dysentry. He finds a tree with a milky sap and drinks from its trunk to stave off a deadly infection of the intestines.

• possible exaggeration

The one where Bear climbs down the face of a waterfall using vines and his powerful biceps
For normal people, a huge waterfall would signal death, but not for Bear. He gathers together some vines and abseils down the face. What a show-off!

The one where Bear chows down on some nasty looking ants
I can’t remember where he is but he is starving and nothing says à la carte like a colony of termites. Yum.

The one where Bear catches an Alaskan salmon and eats it to death
Mmmm, Bear likes fresh sushi. Unfortunately he lacks the razor sharp incisors of larger carnivores such as bears and the salmon is gummed to a grizzly death.

The one where Bear uses bodily fluid to keep cool
There’s no such thing as ‘human waste’ when you’re struggling to stay alive. Bear pees on a t-shirt and wraps it around his head and face in a bid to keep cool in the Sierra Nevada.

The one where Bear skins a dead deer and uses it’s skin as a doona
Once again in the Scottish highlands, Bear comes across a dead deer that is not fit for eating so he takes out his knife and makes a stinky deer coat/shelter that saves him from certain death.

The one where Bear eats Zebra flesh off the bone (and gags)
Stumbling across a recent lion kill, and being close to starvation, Bear cuts strips of meat from a Zebra carcass after first gnawing into it with his teeth.

The one where Bear squeezes elephant poo juice into his mouth (and some poo falls in too)
Lost in deep, dark, Africa without any water, Bear stumbles across some elephant excrement and, like anyone would, he squeezes the liquid out of it and drinks it so he doesnt dehydrate to death.

The one where Bear gets naked and does naked push-ups in the snow, naked.
Bear shows us how to survive after falling into a frozen lake. He gets his gear off (causing the appearance of a wife/girlfriend annoying modesty blur) and dries himself off with snow. Then he does some naked calesthenics. My wifey says “It’s awesome”!

I love this show. He has set quite a few world records for his young age, 33, I think. Just coming from a SAS background is badass enough! I wonder what Hand to hand stuff he knows?

For a while there I Was confused…then I read the previous posts and I felt dumb. I went to a retreat this past weekend and asked some of the ladies there what they thought of him (Bear), and they all pretty much agreed that the is the hottest thing alive.

Men, we must take out Bear Grylls, for he is making us all look like sissies.

Didn’t it come out recently that a lot of the show and the predicaments he’s gotten into are staged?

most memorable was when he drank shit out of shit.

the show is badass, everything he kills and eats looks ten times yummyer than it actually is. see the golden roasted rabbit, sick…

Did anyone see the video where it showed him walking through some abandoned desert…and someone watching the show recognized the place and went there and it was like 500 feet from a highway?

I like ‘Survivorman’ better.

Survivorman blows Man vs Wild away. It is a said that Bear has stayed in a HOTELS during the middle of the week when he was supposedly staying in the wilderness. And he has a crew following him, which are probably handing him chicken nuggets whenever he gets hungry. But I will say the episode where he skinned a dead deer and used its pelt as a blanket was pretty badass. And stinky.

despite all that has been said about MVW you cant deny the information in comparison to survivorman. the stuff survivorman says is just retarded sometimes.

The only thing I really keep up with is The Simpsons (and MMA). Expect that to all change when towards the end of this month when Halo 3 is released, when all of my life will be put on hold (if I have anything to say about it : )

Sorry, Caleb. I just got a call from the boss. It isn’t “your life” any more. This message will self destruct in 5, 4, 3….
