Bear Grylls is a fake...
well at least his show Man vs Wild is. My world has been crushed, but deep down i know it to be true. the second season of the show wasn't as good and seemed to be really commercialized... i still have Survivorman Les Shroud, at least i know he has morals.

I kinda thought he was a fake since he had his own camera crew follow him.

Shoot fellas, my knucklehead boys, ages 9 and 11, had that figured out months ago! They seem to catch onto things pretty quick since since I told them that Santa was killed in a hunting accident over Kentucky last winter. Seems that some good old boy "rednecks" didn't lead those reindeer enough, shot well behind, and plugged him!

What?
You know he always looked to healthy on some of those trips for just living of the land. To bad, so sad. He's ruined forever.
And Santa Claus does to exist, I saw him at the mall last Christmas.

I don't know...I don't think it really matters that the show is not completely real. There is still a lot of useful info that comes outta that show and he does do some crazy shtuff.

i have to admit i will still watch it. and yes he was the youngest to scale everest and a member of the special forces. he still does all his own stunts. just now anytime they shoot a night scene in night vision i know it was filmed from a tent in his backyard... you know i did wonder why he always was so clean.

You know, there's some truth there. The guy eats just about anything, and is fairly honest about the taste. Unless they are faking that some how. :cyclops:

It's TV guys. Hardly any of it is real anymore. He comes out fine after every episode and of course his camera crew can follow him around and still get perfect film throughout the film. Definetely a staged act. I can't stand the guy anyways, he's like the new Steve Irwin...

Except he's not really anything like Steve Irwin. I can't think of anything that either of them really have in common.

I think I can think of something. Bear Grills career is now as dead as Steve Erwin. Sorry if I offended anyone I just couldn't resist. Have a sense of humor.

Haha! That's pretty good. Although, i hear that they already have another season lined up - where they explain all of the things that are "fake."

They seriously have another season lined up? I heard that this would be his last season. If they do another season like you say it is a good thing that they are planning on revealing what parts are fake. It is annoying when shows like this try and trick people into thinking that all the crap is real. And it is good to see someone has a similar sense of humor as me. I almost didn't post that comment because I wasn't sure how much flack I would catch for it. But oh well, that is just who I am.
