Okay, so the first episode I see, they drop him in the Australian Outback, and literally seven minutes into the show he is talking about drinking his own urine. Boy, what have I been missing?!?!?!?!!?

You gotta love any show that features a menu of piss as an aperitif, raw spider as an appetizer, and snake as the main course. Getting hungry just thinking about it. Got acid? @@@@@@@@@@@@ Everyone has to believe in something. I believe I’ll have another glass of wine. |

You ever watch Rogue Nature? There was some guy provoking lions on foot carrying only a wooden pole, but I'm sure there was an army nearby.
Just one more sip. |

Thanks for the heads up Dan!
The Kimmel interview should be fun. Can't wait to see what animal parts and body fluids Bear consumes in the new episode tonight . |

Just scheduled it online via my Tivo. Thanks!
Me: You don't think the wine opened after an hour or two? My gf: I liked it better when you first opened it. It was like getting hit in the face with a crowbar. Me: Two-buck Chuck is like getting hit in the face with a crowbar. My gf: Yeah, but this is a TASTY crowbar. "De can or Decant" - My gf |

Yeah, that guy is intense. The best is when he is passing through the lions saying "Good lions. Good lions" (or something to that effect) repeatedly.

This past May the wife and I were hiking in the Ansel Adams wilderness area (adjacent Yosemite) with a guide. Guide mentioned that in the Sierra Nevada episode the crew AND BEAR were spotted at the Bass Lake lodge. The crew was waiting for Bear to shake off the hanger he had from a rough night of drinking so they could put him back out in the wild to continue the shoot! That said, I too think the show is great. They can't really fake the drinking urine and eating recently killed (and still fresh frozen!) moose, elk, deer....or can they?!  bigcabguy |

Man I love this show too. watch it every night. the best bits of each shoe is when he is hunting and eating some crazy stuff. the last episode when he ate the grubs was great but he needed to cook them first to make it tast better as per andrew zimmer

i watch the show and after numerous episodes, i don't buy it. i think its staged and the above post about him staying in a lodge and getting loaded, proves it.

Scuttlebutt! Hey, I heard theres a bridge for sale in Brooklyn, N.Y. are you interested? I'll make you a sweet deal! |

Yep, that convinces me, too. Even though I find the show to be extremely entertaining (and fascinating), it is probably staged. That's probably why Bear Grylls would want to jump out of planes into barren wastelands so he can drink piss and eat maggots...while we're at it, the moon landing was probably staged, too. I heard a guide tell me once that the footage was shot in a studio  ______________________________________ I'm throwin' rocks tonight. Mark it, Dude. |

I think most if not all is legit. Either way, you learn a lot. How to tell what water is safe, what snakes are poisoness, what direction is what etc. Not that I'll ever need that info most likely, but it's still cool to see.

Hey now - moon landing/walk = staged Superman = real, I'm sure of that  bigcabguy |

Remember when he chased off Buzzards to savor peices of dead Zebra ass?
The general manager of a Marriott I know SWEARS this guy was at the hotel every night when filming the "Everglades" episode. She told me they would "dirty him up" right before he went out again. Even so, it is one of my favorite shows. Very informative. |

Hey, while we're at it, may as well consider Deadliest Catch to be staged, too. I heard from this Alaskan bartender that those guys really shoot the footage for that show in a big wave-pool and cruise into the bar EVERY night before staying in the five-star resort in Dutch Harbor.

Hey, let's not drag "Deadliest Catch" into this.
Man, I have a new respect for crab legs after watching that show. *********** You never see crazy people walking the streets, screaming about atheism, do you? |

I love this show! He's so crazy. And yes, the episode where he bit into the live salmon was so awesome. He has some serious guts, and he's hot.

That wasn't really a live salmon. I heard from a sushi chef that Bear eats rice cakes on the air that appear to be live fish. ______________________________________ I'm throwin' rocks tonight. Mark it, Dude. |

Rough job. Problem for me though is aside from a new flunky trainee on each boat, a different injured crew member and some weather changes every show is exactly the same I can't watch it anymore. |

I just watched this for the first time last weekend. Not much of a TV watcher, but this one kept me in front of the tube. I did crack up when he declared he'd made it back to "civilization" when he found that one Indian and a canoe with a campfire on the river.
