this is a shout out to the sickest show on tv, if you havent watched it see it, they put this guy in the middle of fuckign nowhere and make him survive. guys nuts check it out
Survivorman is way more legit. The Man vs. Wild guy had a camera crew with him, and they could help him out if he really got hurt. But Survivorman is out on his own, doing his own videography.
man vs wild is fucking lame, survivorman is where it's at.
He doesn't have a TV crew with him... also he once crushed a squirrel to death with a rock and ate the entire thing. He ate the fucking bones for breakfast. That's raw.
I like Bear Grylls waaayyy more, the TV crew is better I think because you get to see more of whats going on. Survivorman he usually never gets rescued and barely ever eats, I don't think he's really good. And has he climbed Mt. Everest? I don't think so!
that IS the dumbest fucking show if u really did half the shit that guy said to ued be done for...he tried to ride a wild horse and told u to walk though a glacier. hes a for TV showmen
That show fuckin' rocks! He is sooo goddamn core! He built a raft Castaway style to escape an island, and sharks started to surround him. Soooooooo intense.
when hes escaping the french alps he catches a fish, shoves his finger down its throat and bites right into his back, guts are coming out everywhere, he just tears the thign to shreds, i blazed and watched that shit (kinda weird to watch discovery channel high) but it was mind blowing
Survivorman just complains about how he has to set up a camera on a mountain, then walk down and try to light a fire with a kitten and matches, then he has to walk back up the mountain and stop the camera.
Bear Grylls just rides in a jeep from location to location then eats gross shit.
he jumped through the ice into a freezing lake in the french alps, then climbed out himself. Also threw himself into a crevas hoping his parachute would hold him up. Hes insane
this guy is the fucking man. the otherday he was in the snow and jumped in to a frozen lake for no reason, then proceeded to rip off all of his clothes and stand over a fire naked. hes just sooo core.
He does do it for a reason, to show you how to survive. The survivorman guy just starves himself and doesn't get rescued (except for like 1 time) and Bear always finds his way out. and don't give me shit about legitity because bear grylls fucking climbed down a waterfall.
I cant see how people like this show over Survivorman. Honestly, come on.
Bear Grills or whatever the hell he's called gets filmed by putting himself in danger. Its dumb. I could slide down an exposed ice sheet too and make it look like I was going to die. To me, theres a big difference between putting yourself in danger and surviving than actually being in danger and surviving.
Survivorman on the other hand... this show is legit. Instead of having a backup crew with food, supplies, a tent and living nessecitites (Like the man vs wild guy sleeps all night out in the wilderness, yeah right. He probably retreats to the trailer after they got the shot of him sleeping under branches...), this guy does it by himself. He carries his film shit WITH him, sets up his own shots and actually SURVIVES instead of faking it. So what, the other guy climbed everest... Les catches his own food, cooks it when possible, and will eat it. I'm talking squirrels, bugs, dubious berries, mushrooms - whatever he can find for nutrition. Survivorman is the real shit instead of that poor excuse of a naturalist being an idiot in the wild.
You could find your way out too if you had an entire film crew with you with maps and supplies. Putting yourself in danger doesnt make you "legit", it makes you a fucking showman. And what the fuck, Les always finds his way out, save for the canyonlands episode.
word. Those really nice wide scenery shots of him walking across vast spaces really show his solitude, but the kicker is he has to walk all the way back to get the camera after.
The best thing ever on that show is when he is in the Alps and he has to cross the lake and he jumps in. He was in the water for over a minute. And that's why Bear Grylls could take Chuck Norris
