- Mummo, on 06/19/2009, -2/+92People think this is funny.....but it's really wet and runny
- techstar25, on 06/19/2009, -1/+70When your hanging on a cliff, and you smell a stinky whiff ....
- gutterboy, on 06/19/2009, -8/+75Yeah, being former SAS, and one of the youngest persons to summit Everest screams "pussy"
- nates, on 06/19/2009, -40/+84Bear Grylls is a giant pussy. Running around with a camera crew and staying in hotels when off-camera is lame! Survivorman (Les Stroud) is soooo much more of a badass than this guy.
- FirstCuts, on 06/19/2009, -6/+47That guy is full of crap.
/Someone had to say it, right? - TheSkunkMonkey, on 06/19/2009, -0/+36Hmmm, gives new meaning to the song Chocolate Rain.
- enthreeoh, on 06/19/2009, -3/+31I enjoy both Survivor Man and Man vs Wild. They're 2 very different shows. Sure Bear sleeps in a hotel, but he does way more bat-***** insane stuff than Les. Not putting down either show but I watch both.
- doublsh0t, on 06/19/2009, -1/+29reminds me of Seth Mcfarlane's video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cxJpp9VsND4
- feelmypimphand, on 06/19/2009, -0/+27well...he used to be
- gib0r, on 06/19/2009, -0/+22Diarrhea! Diarrhea!
When you're climbing up a ladder, and you hear some splatter... - funk49, on 06/19/2009, -2/+23I wholeheartedly agree...next time I'm stranded in the wilderness, I'll know how to rely on a makeshift raft that was designed & pre-built in a studio to travel downstream.
- gerrylazlo, on 06/19/2009, -0/+19If I was a cameraman I'd be laughing my ass off. Provided I was upwind.
- phatboye, on 06/19/2009, -0/+17Now I agree with you that Survivorman >> Man vs. Wild but I wouldn't go as far as saying Bear is a pussy. I'd like to see you go through what Bear goes through on an average show.
- inactive, on 06/19/2009, -0/+16flatulanche
- cramd, on 06/19/2009, -0/+16I read this, while on the toilet suffering some diarrhea of my own. As the tee-shirt says "The iPhone has changed the way I poop"
- RoroCo, on 06/19/2009, -10/+24I guess he is moving up in the world and staying in cliff-side hotels now. Still... He didn't have to lean over the cliff to *****.. he could have used the cabana bathroom.
- dman24752, on 06/19/2009, -1/+15I love Bear Grylls. That man has taught me that no matter what happens in the wilderness, I just need to drink my own piss.
- Harabeck, on 06/19/2009, -0/+12Bear doesn't have to stay out for 7 days. And doesn't actually have to survive, a lot of that stuff is pre-scripted. Les on the other hand is actually in a much tougher situation. The stuff Les shows you is much more likely to be useful in a real situation.
- notquitegone, on 06/19/2009, -18/+30Everything Bear does--biting insects with his mouth open, jumping over waterfalls (with his crew), eating raw bird eggs (with shell) from a nest on a cliff face, ***** off the same cliff face--is done for dramatic effect. He does it so the women watching his show (his main audience because all the real wilderlads are watching Les Stroud) will go, "ewwwwwwwww...ahhhhhhhh," and keep watching.
Did anyone see the episode where he was just strolling past a bush and "happened" to stumble upon full steak-like cuts of meat that some buzzard "must have just dropped by accident?" ***** that.
I grew up in the woods and the only "meat" I ever saw had been rotting for weeks. Sure a buzzard might drop some meat in this world, but what are the odds of perfect, meaty slices just falling onto a bush and hanging there like some wilderness deli? And if a buzzard (a known scavenger) lost fresh meat, wouldn't it go back for it? Why the hell would a buzzard just say, "ahh ***** it," and fly off?
It wouldn't.
Watch the old episodes of Survivorman (he stopped taping--as I recall--because it was taking too much of a toll on his body). Les eats flowers and *****, and really hates to kill for his food unless he absolutely has to.
Stabbing a bullfrog through a tree just so you can eat it's tiny little legs doesn't make you a man who battles the wild. It makes you a dick who kills ***** for effect and doesn't really have to. HE HAS A CREW. Les doesn't.
Get Les to start taping again and send Bear back to an island somewhere so he can eat 50 hermit crab claws.
/rant - codechino, on 06/19/2009, -2/+14because he's going to get a ton of it.
- NaviGATR, on 06/19/2009, -3/+14Oh poop!
- lolwatermelon, on 06/19/2009, -0/+10I wonder if they could cram some more product plugs into that interview.
- stinkythegrump, on 06/19/2009, -3/+13He must have gotten the parasite while braving it at a mere three star resort in Mexico.
- ScionAltera, on 06/19/2009, -2/+12I agree. I'm an Eagle Scout, so I know a little about how not to die in the wilderness. When I watch Survivorman I spend the entire show thinking "Ok, yeah. That's a good idea," or "No Les, don't be an idiot" or "Man, I should go camping next weekend." When I watch Man vs. Wild I spend the show thinking "Holy crap, I would totally fall off of that thing and die!" or "I'm not sure I could eat that thing even if I was starving to death!"
Both shows are entertaining, and both are informative. I will say I like Bear better just because Les gets so whiny sometimes and Bear is always upbeat. Having a crew with you would definitely make it easier to stay cheerful. - kozakly, on 06/19/2009, -0/+9I'd settle for not being under him...
- Hartley1942, on 06/20/2009, -0/+8Some stay dry but others feel the pain
- nathanbutnet, on 06/19/2009, -0/+8Personally I like Bear for what he can do and his show and sometimes I also like Survirorman cause he looks for ***** to get high on.
- inactive, on 06/19/2009, -0/+8Didnt Seth MacFarlands Cavelcade of Comedy (ie: Family Guy rejects) already do a skit like this?
- CrackyJSquirrel, on 06/19/2009, -1/+9When you are sliding into first and you feel something burst... Diarrhea!
- pegothejerk, on 06/19/2009, -3/+10Dugg up with a stick, from the front yard maple, tied to my finger with electrical tape so-as to avoid leaving my shelter (couch).
- atarijedi, on 06/19/2009, -1/+8I'd think it would be really liberating to just take a dump over the edge of a cliff.
- DarthVolta, on 06/19/2009, -2/+9"I grew up in the woods..."
Hah. - ftc08, on 06/19/2009, -1/+8Diarrhea! Diarrhea!
- cheddaro, on 06/19/2009, -7/+14I always liked Survivorman more than this guys show.
- Amadeus2490, on 06/19/2009, -0/+6Diarrhea! Cha-cha-cha! Diarrhea! Cha-cha-cha!
- ProjectGSX, on 06/19/2009, -1/+7We need Bear starring in a "Celebrity" Left 4 Dead campaign.
- dman24752, on 06/19/2009, -1/+7But Bear so knows how to desecrate an animal caracass. In one episode, he kills a snake, skins it, eats the flesh, then pisses into the snake skin. If that doesn't make you man, then I don't know what does. /s
- EddiePotato, on 06/19/2009, -0/+5You have diarrhea of the joke.
- gooddealsman, on 06/19/2009, -1/+6Diarrhea! Diarrhea!
When your slidding into first, and you feel a sudden burst! - AWBoy666, on 06/19/2009, -3/+8It's called entertainment.
I was really pissed off when all the stuff about him pretty much lying about staying out for the nights came out, but I got over it. It's an entertainment show. And he still does get sick and eat all that *****, so he deserves SOME respect. He's no Les, but he's still tougher than you or me. - DaviDTC, on 06/19/2009, -0/+5Before he was called out on his "survival situations" there was an episode in Australia where at the end he catches some rare snake and says something along the lines of "only the aborigines people are allowed to hunt these animals and those in a survival situation". He then proceeds to swing the snake by its tail and kill it. About a year later when everyone found out about how he does this stuff, that same episode aired and when he catches the snake a voice over comes on saying how only the aborigines from this land and people in survival situations are allowed to hunt the snake blah blah blah. The voice over then says that he let the snake go.
Can't find the edited video of him letting the snake go, maybe someone else knows what I am talking about. This is before the edits where he kills and eats the snake.

- jba68, on 06/19/2009, -0/+4When you're sliding into third,
And you lay a slimy turd,...Diarrhea - geneticlemon, on 06/19/2009, -1/+5I was skidding down a steep hill face on Wednesday in the middle of Palouse Falls and I used his sideways sliding method to slow me down ... Bear Grylls: Making skidding down rocky hills easier for the average human!
- JustinNoland, on 06/20/2009, -1/+5Diarrhea! Diarrhea!
When you're driving in your Chevy and you feel something heavy... - Oea420, on 06/20/2009, -0/+3survivor man is actually entertaining... and he's doing it for real... actually more than once to get the shots usually.
The main problem with survivorman is.. he's not really that great of a survivorman. His choice of shelters sometimes have been quite absurd. he barely scrubs it out in a couple (even having to get help etc with his radio.. but at least he is honest about what is going on). After the seven day period a lot of the time he either starved or severely dehydrated, nearly hypothermic, etc...
Best survivor man? The one where he strands himself on a raft on the open pacific, i think. Storm comes in, he loses radio/visual contact with his 'watch' vessel briefly... in those couple minutes of footage you see absolute terror on his face, but he remains calm about it for the cameras... you can tell he was probably ***** his pants - mandarin, on 06/19/2009, -1/+4Why am I reading this *****?
- motivatedguy, on 06/19/2009, -2/+5Diarrhea, Cha Cha Cha...
- kesbar, on 06/20/2009, -0/+3When you're sliding into home
and your pants begin to foam
Diarrhea! Diarrhea! -
