it tastes like something that has been living in a dark and dank cave for ages

If you can't ignore an insult, top it; if you can't top it, laugh it off; and if you can't laugh it off, it's probably deserved
He is for ever coming out with these stupid quotes describing what some tastes like.
This is a particular favourite of mine if you watch the whole video, the fact that he seems to knows what all his mates bogeys tastes like it says it all.

Watching him eat those grubs, you can tell he does it for the gross out factor alone. If you're going to eat the damn things, close your mouth, stop chewing with your mouth half open so everyone can see you chewing. He knew one of them would explode, that's why he chewed them up like that. What a sham.
If ignorance is bliss, why aren't more people happy?
I think he's a bit of a joke to be quite honest I would be very very surprised if any of the serious survival experts take him seriously. Like you say, he eats all the disgusting things for the shock factor. He eats everything he comes across which is unnecessary, I don't agree with killing animals for the sake of it, and especially not for for the entertainment factor. I watched a show this evening and he was in China. He killed and ate a bat, a rat, a frog(totally raw),a crab(totally raw) & ate ant larvae. And surprisingly enough, I don't recall him mentioning the special forces once

He mentions the british special forces a lot. He is a british guide in europe. I would take him seriously. People blow it off when they see him on t.v.. Surviror man can kiss my ass. He sits in a shelter in the woods for days and doesnt eat crap. Hes the joke. I wouldnt have a problem sitting in one place stranded in wisconsin woods. lol Bear Grylls rocks!!! Look at his website and watch his first season!!
26th May 1998 Bear Grylls climbed into the Guinness Book of Records as the Youngest British climber ever to reach the summit of Everest and return alive
That was just disgusting! When the thing "exploded" I actually shrieked and scared my husband LOL. I can't stand Man vs. Wild. I think it's a total load of bullsh!t. He needs to go find a real job!

I am not disputing that Bear Grylls has a degree of survival skills. However, he has only managed to get a break because of all the disgusting things he eats. But he definitely hasn't got the same reputation and respect as someone like Ray Mears who can entertain you for an hour without making you feel sick, if he can manage to eat a huge rhino grub without spilling all its guts down his chin, I don't see why Bear Grylls can't. BG's has built his entire reputation around eating all sorts of disgusting critters, biting the heads off snakes and frogs. If he suddenly stopped doing it nobody would bother watching him anymore.
