Bear Grylls ''Edward Michael Grylls'' the surviving hero from the show Man vs the wild may seem like a total badass. Eating insects, making survival shelters out of animals, sleeping in dangerous areas ect...
He's great and knows how to entertain you. But the truth is he got a camera crew behind him. And fu*ks up on purpose since he knows there is no danger in what he is doing. It's been said that some of the props he makes are fabricated. Not really made out of what ever he could find.
It's also been said that he sleeps over in hotels instead of out in the wild.
Basically, misleading the audience... here's an example :
Better look out, that's very dangerous.
Now let me tell you about the real badass Less Stroud.
Why is he better then Bear Grylls ? Let me tell you why...
Hes alone ... and I mean alone. No camera crew or anything he records everything himself.
Sometimes just to get a shot of him going up the hill he has to setup the camera walk up. Then get back down to get his camera again.
Example :
Stroud puts himself in situations that could happen to any of us that would get lost unlike like Grylls that does unnecessary stunts just to show off.
Since he got no camera crew behind him he got limited resources, if he fu*ks up he's dead.
In conclusion Les Stroud is more of an badass then Grylls, but Bear Grylls really knows how to entertain your audience.

ReplyDeleteA fun parody about this guy, that I found on cyanide and happiness a time ago xD
but I love the show, even if it's staged!
ReplyDeleteYes I saw it on Discovery, and I fully agree with you. Great post!
ReplyDeleteLoad of shite, I've had the pleasure of working alongside Bear on one of his shows, and I can assure you he / we all sleep out in the field.
ReplyDeleteYea he went back to a hotel once during filming to see his family, however filming the show takes many months and the whole crew disaper for a few days at convienient points to see family, friends etc..
Bear is a former SAS trooper, and more man than most, including the author of this blog.. Grow up!
Great Post!
ReplyDeletedude, every documentary needs a crew. its common sense. no crew = no documentary.
ReplyDeleteVigorously nodding my head in agreement!
ReplyDeletewhat ever u wrote about grylls .. it s all damn idiotic ,, nd i dnt believe ....
ReplyDeleteBear is BEAST!!! Don't be hatin on my man
ReplyDeleteDoesn't he waits until night to do things.I won't follow him in survival.Bear grylls, and Ray, Les all have reasons to stay at hotels. Besides their shows are showing people what to do.I say I'm team Bear Grylls,Since I saw his tv show first.
ReplyDeleteoh sure lets just forget that bear grylls climbed everest before he was old enough to have a beer, fought in the most highly trained special forces and espionage unit in the world, lead multple expeditions across the artic and antarctic, and has glided and ballooned through the tallest peaks on Earth. Maybe youre right, he's not as badass as some dude he films himself in the wilderness. not.
ReplyDeletethats not true Bear Grylls is way better than Les stroud! Wat kind of a name is that anyway? That was a full on fake vid btw.
