The sad part about that is likely that you then get people out there thinking they can do everything he does. Could lead to problems. While it is possible to live off the land to some extent, good luck trying to get to sleep with the stench of a rotting carcass, or pole vaulting down a mountainside...

I actually had more respect for Top Gear doing that North Pole expedition : 2 middle age guys with no experience in a 4x4 convoy with no hotel around (that's for sure given the location...) and sleeping in tents... Or more respect for the "Lost land of the..." BBC series where they carry their filming gear on foot into the jungle, caves or the mountains, discover new species, and really endure remoteness. Hats off to those guys, at least they're contributing to something. Grylls is just a buffoon.

Yeah what a fool : ex British SAS soldier, climbed Everest aged 23 and made a fortune making a TV show in which he got to go to some amazing places. Haters gonna hate. What have you guys done?
