Baer Grillz stabbed a turtle in the head and cooked it. =(
poor fuckin turtle..
oh well at least Man v. Wild is back :D
Baer Grillz is the fuckin man
-
survivorman kicks it's ass. he actually carries his camera around.
-
They are both good shows.
-
I agree, but most of the time Survivorman bores me.
-
I personally think that way of man vs. wild. it's annoying how they basically got a guy like crocodile dundee but who has to eat zebra carcasses randomly. I prefer the guy maybe having some motivation to do like dieing if he doesn't.
-
I havent seen survivorman but, Man vs. Wild is bad ass. It's my new favorite show.
-
I dont think either show is fake.
-
What really? Fuck. :(
-
Yeah he was sleeping in hotel rooms, he had anthropologists build shit for him and take it apart so he could redo it on camera.
??? Link?
This sounds highly unlikely.
-
Say it aint so bear! :(
Who can forget the time Grylls, burning up in the heat of the Moab desert, urinated on his own T-shirt, which he then wrapped around his head to cool his soaring body temperature. Or the time he hungrily bit the heads off maggots he found in a frozen animal carcass crushed by an avalanche, cheerfully explaining they were a good source of nutrition?
:o
-
Which is why I'm not entirally sold on it being fake. It's still a good show though.
-
Well given the fact that some parts are confirmed fake (motels and what not) I'm not sure why you wouldn't be sold.
It doesnt make sense, how can he be in a motel and in the wild at the same time. Maybe there was a mistake or something. Seems like a rather large thing to overlook if the show was fake.
-
It's called editing.
Yes, but if you were going to fake that, then going into a hotel at night would be something they would try better to hide. I dont know, I havent read anything that confirmed it. The guy does too much crazy shit to just not sleep outside at night.
-
I haven't seen Survivorman, but James and I watch Man vs. Wild all the time.

Even if he did sleep in hotels and stuff, dude. I saw the guy DRINK HIS OWN URINE. I also saw him JUMP INTO A FROZEN LAKE. I saw him EAT MAGGOTS THAT WERE EATING ROTTING FLESH. He's still awesome no matter what.
Maybe you can fake the urine-drinking, or even the maggot-eating, but you cannot fake jumping into a frozen lake.

You can when he drinks hot chocolate immediately afterwards off-camera in his heated personal bungalow.

Would you, or anyone here for that matter, willingly jump into a frozen lake, even with the promise of hot chocolate in a heated bungalow afterwards? I know I wouldn't.

I'd do it for a little bit of money. you know I'd do just about anything for money. Clearly this is what Bear does. Some expert shows him how to survive shit, he does it for the cameras, and then he collects his cash.
-
I just think that for all the shit that man does, and I do believe he drinks his urine and all that crazt shit, he would be pretty dumb to check into a motel the same night. At least sneak into a motel. Or pitcha tent next to a motel. Or sleep in a car. Just seems like such an obvious thing to miss.
-
Yes I can read you shitty quote that has no link to an official article. It's on Wikipedia with no citation which makes it even less believable at the moment.
-
But this British adventurer is now the subject of an investigation by U.K.'s Channel 4, which already has confirmed that Grylls checked into motels on a few occasions when he was depicted on TV having slept under the stars. Other allegations have been made suggesting that the crew that records Grylls in action isn't as hands-off as it might appear to viewers.
I still think thats a pretty big thing to overlook if you were going to fake a show. I want to here more information about it. I'm not saying that it didnt happen, Im just skeptical with such little information.

My dad and brothers are all big time fans of this show, and about a month ago they had me watch it. First thing I said was "wow, there's a lot of editing here." There are constant cuts here and there, and it just never looked totally authentic to me.
Not to mention the fact that he always has a big camera crew with him, and they no doubt have food with them.
-
i'm an editor I know that. But you cant expect them to have the show last for 120 hours an episode.
-
FoC, I can find 3 fucking articles from 3 different news websites all saying the same thing in 20 seconds. Use Google.
-
But a crew member told the Sunday Times some nights were spent in hotels.
American survival consultant Mark Weinert, who was recruited by Diverse Productions, told the paper Grylls claimed to be stranded on a desert island on one occasion.
However, he was actually in Hawaii and spent some of his time there in a motel, Mr Weinert alleged.
:'( :'(
How could you bear.

Which makes him a circus freak, not a survivalist.
