MAN Vs WILD = BOGUS

yeah.. bear is a bit of a pretty boy. and thats annoying..
not to mention he carries FLINT! wuss.

Les Stroud is "better" because he really risks his life. I agree with your point TJT, but bear catches trout with his hands and all that.

They are both the best show on Discovery. I dont care if he has help. If I was the producer I would make him climb the waterfall 10 times untill I got the shot I wanted. and you cant do that if you have no food.

They just need disclaimers. Bear is handsome and Les is charming.

Here is a picture of me surviving on Rodeo drive.

It's tv. Just about everything on tv is fake. Even "reality" shows, esp reality shows. Not surprising at all....oh and survivorman is better, imo.

the only "Real" stuff on tv are the court shows, cops, and blind date type stuff.

"Discovery Communications has learned that isolated elements of the 'Man vs. Wild' show in some episodes were not natural to the environment, and that for health and safety concerns the crew and host received some survival assistance while in the field," a spokeswoman for the network said.

Yeah - like maybe a helicopter lift to the Mariott for the night...

You've got to give Bear some credit. The guy did drink the fluid out of elephant poop in the Africa episode.
Unless it was just a saturated bran muffin or something. Even still, it was the nastiest thing I have ever seen on cable.

I went to the same school as the dude. He came and gave a talk on the show he did with the French Foreign Legion. I met him afterwards at the reception type thingy. He seemed cool and down to earth, totally unlike the unnecessarily intense screen persona he has. I think he lives on a house boat on the Thames

In another episode, viewers watched as Grylls tried to coax what seemed like a wild mustang into a lasso in the Sierra Nevada.

"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, the horses were not wild but were brought in by trailer.

I THOUGHT THAT WAS FUNNY, WHEN I SAW IT I SAID "HEY THOSE HORSES PROBBABLY BELONG TO SOMEONE, THERES NO WILD HORSES , HE IS ON SOMEONES RANCH"
