Bear Grylls is crazy.

I like the guy, he's pretty entertaining. The program he did about the Foreign Legion in 2005 was good
 
good show! very entertaining.... the fish bit was disgusting.. lol when all the guts pooped out! YUM
 
OMFG HIS GOT ENOUGH PROTEIN NOW, i bet he doesn't like his greens

Can't deny how hardcore he is though..

Shows him + Soundman.

I think the rope is because they've finished so he's being towed back to the island.

both true and false. you should ALWAYS get the temperature of the fish BELOW 4C for a day or 2 because there are worms, like there are in any animal, that can seriously do some damage to you if you don't. look on kontraband for sushi worms if u don't believe me

those "sushi worms" pictures weren't caused by sushi, the guy had cancer and the infestation came from that becoming infected with parasites. It got as bad as it did because it wasn't actually hurting the guy so he didn't do anything about it.

I do love Snopes. :D
 
Mears > Grylls

Anyday of the week! I mean wading through the everglades with your trousers rolled up? you dont survive that way. Ray Mears would have made a canoe for christ sake... do it properly Mr Grylls!

Lets see Grylls make anything useful from birch bark or the leaves of a pandanas tree!

You don't survive very long the way he acts. Why did he need to eat the fish raw? Ray would never have got into that situation, he would have collected food along his journey or at least had the means to start a fire on his person!

In conclusion: Bear Grylls sucks. Ray Mears kicks ass.
 
Seems to me Grylls is more hardcore, out in extreme conditions with little/no tools. Mears is in some forest in the UK with all these tools...etc Pfft, he's a pansy.

you are wrong, grylls is trained by sas, basically he goes on a mission somewhere expecting to be in and out in probably like 24 hours, if it goes balls up then he needs to survive for like 24 hoursw before he is rescued, ray mears basically tells you how to enjoy living in the wild, and comfortably!
 
I mean on one of the shows Mears did he was baking cakes and sweets out of stuff found in the forest. Oh yeah that's extreme survival. LOL... The teddy bears freakin picnic more like.

I hate to admit it but Bear Grylls is probably the genuine article. His show is hammed up, but if his achievements listed on wiki are true he has the background to back it all up
