From what I hear he is a fake, nothing compared to survivorman! I do find the show mildly entertaining....

in one show he is all like "thats a 20 foot drop" the he jumps and when he gets up in the background it was more like a 5 foot drop. he's an ass hat.

He tells you during the entire show to always take the safest route, but then shows you what to do if you don't. It wouldn't be entertaining if he didn't do those things.

My kids joke if they ever have a problem they can "Pee on it" like Bear Grylls.

I enjoy Bear Grylls. He's entertainig and you can learn a thing or two from him even if some of the show is to keep audience attention. When I see him eating some of things he eats I know he's hardcore no matter what the show presents.

Ever since I seen this ^^^^ I can't take him seriously.

Nutnfancy should have a show keeping it based on what he does now.
He mentioned he was offered a similar survival show but turned it down due to it already being done.

But I would watch that guy, I enjoy all of his You Tube vids.

His show is definitely fake. Les Stroud is the man though. I used to like Man vs Wild more than Survivor man but then I found out Man Vs. Wild is staged and they give him food and shelter off camera so Survivor Man grew on me.

[Mtn.man]

It's purely entertainment. 1 he always tries to find Food first, WTF.
As stated he takes bs risks that anyone alone and lost should never do.
But it is another reality show that at least ain't got a bunch of sluts trying to marry some guy they think has $$$. Or squeaking wannbe singers.

It is a show and even 'bear' has released behind the scene clips.
