Saw this the other night, it was amazing how someone could survive somewhere with so little water! 
Same, always good to see Ray back of TV.
Anyone here a fan of Survivorman with Les Stroud? He's a bit more hardcore like Bear Grylls (though he genuinely survives alone) but he has the appreciation for ancient techniques that Ray Mears has.
I definitely recommend picking up season 1 on Amazon for anyone who's into this sort of stuff.

Great to see Ray back again,though i wish they could have more episode in this season rather than a handful, i guess they must be running out of environments for Ray to visit now ?
