I often watch Bear Grylls born survivor and I really can't fathom out exactly what the point of this program is apart from him doing his best to make people puke I think it's written into his script that anything he eats is compared to a bogey, or a prawn that's been sitting around for a few weeks. Christ, he had only been out of the helicopter 30 seconds this evening before he was munching on this bloody great grasshopper However, it still entertaining and I enjoy watching it

lol, i'm no good at names, but his name i remember...
And the sight of him eating a cow's eye is burnt on my retinas.

It's funny you should mention this. He was on a chat show a few months ago when he was talking about when he was in Iceland doing one of his shows. He found a dead sheep decided he was going to eat its eyes. He said all the film and sound crew were all retching watching him do it

I bet his missus has got a bloody great tube of toothpaste waiting for him when he gets back home

I'd never kiss him again.
I had my share of gore and can say that in my years in surgery i've had any human organ in my hands, and i would not even blink.
But eating stuff like eyes, make me wanna puke beforehand.

can not relate with Penn, the program not available in my place

the mans got a strong stomach i give him that, I could easy eat some foods that would make a lot of people puke but drew a line on goat testicles, eyes and elephant turd. I like the program, you never know Penn your cupboard may be empty one day. )))

He seems like a really nice chap but I just don't see the need for him to eat every critter that crosses his path. Mind you, that is probably written into his contract, he certainly doesn't look like he enjoys eating most of the things. Thinking about that, people probably only tune because they get a laugh out of seeing the innards of a witchetty grub dribbling down his chin

i love bear!!! got most of his dvds think he is amaazing!!

prefer ray mears tho...would def watch more of ray if i was going to be stuck on a dessert island lol mainly cos he actually shows how to survive apposed to how to eat elephant shit lol

I think that Bear is a bit of a poser, he likes to keep reminding us of his time he spent in the special forces however, I believe it wasn't actually the SAS, the SBS seems to ring a bell somewhere

les stroud would kick bear's ass!!!!




see??? he kicked rambo's ass and stole his knife!

I am also a fan of Bear's.. but I do think that Les Stroud is much more practical. Most of the shit Bear does is not, IMO, what people would be doing if lost. I know I wouldn't go swimming, naked, in Arctic waters for one.

Bear = pure entertainment to me.

not heard of les stoud like, looks bad ass tho, has his own survival show i imagine,

one thing i thought was abit random was when bear did a show with will ferrell lol
