transist Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 NEW YORK – Discovery Channel says Bear Grylls, rugged adventurer and star of its popular "Man vs. Wild" series, has been injured during an expedition in Antarctica. A fall resulted in a shoulder injury to Grylls, who is en route back home to Britain for medical treatment and assessment of the injury's severity, according to Discovery. He was not filming for Discovery, but instead was taking part in an independent expedition. The 34-year-old Grylls has hosted "Man vs. Wild," on which he strands himself in remote locations to demonstrate survival techniques, since November 2006. The former British Special Forces member recently published "Man vs. Wild: Survival Techniques for the Most Dangerous Places on Earth." http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20081207/ap_on_..._grylls_injured Looks like wild won.

mikeyboy236 Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 Survivorman = hard core. Man Vs. Wild = soft core. Bear grylls once was walking though the swap found an alligator, caught it by its tail stabbed it and smashed its head into a tree, bear jumps waterfalls and repels cliffs. surviorman likes to pretend he is alone, claiming he has no film crew.

mikeyboy236 Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 i highly doubt it, giving some of the camera angles and and at some point the camera following him. Besides, watching Man v Wild is much more enjoyable than Les playing his dam harmonica. Link to post Share on other sites

Crocketman Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 i highly doubt it, giving some of the camera angles and and at some point the camera following him. Besides, watching Man v Wild is much more enjoyable than Les playing his dam harmonica. there are no shots of him being followed and anything of that sort of him walking away he has to go back and pick the stuff up.

Chris North Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 Looks like wild won. Bear grylls once was walking though the swap found an alligator, caught it by its tail stabbed it and smashed its head into a tree, bear jumps waterfalls and repels cliffs. Right Some of the stuff he does is (or looks to be) pretty badass, but no one in their right mind would do that stuff in a survival situation. Plus he strips to his boxers way too often. It's nice to see that a majority is in agreement that Les's show is cooler. Link to post Share on other sites
mikeyboy236 Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 Don't get me wrong, I don't hate the show suvivorman, Man vs. wild is what I prefer, I'll easily choose watch survivorman over other ###### on cable. Link to post Share on other sites

L4byr1nth Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 'Bear lives on a converted barge on the River Thames with his wife Shara and their young sons Jesse and Marmaduke.' Two things wrong with the above. Anyone want to take a stab? Ben. Link to post Share on other sites

Skarclaw Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 Ray Mears/ Survivor man is a winning combo, Bear Grylls is more entertainment then anything. I read that the survivor man guy was going to do a few shows about urban survival which sounds pretty interesting and also more useful then stuck in the sahara or whatever.

Desolation mkII Posted December 8, 2008 Report Share Posted December 8, 2008 I think Bear Grylls is an *albatross* to be honest and allways have. Ray Mears FTW. Link to post Share on other sites
