Bear Grylls or Survivorman?

Bear +1

I'll admit Man vs Wild is the more entertaining show but Survivorman is the more useful show

True, if i were stranded somewhere, I would take survivorman, he can survive anywhere.

I'd rather watch Man vs. Wild, but Stroud would definitely be the one I would most like to have with me if I were stranded somewhere.

Who would you rather be with...i think the questions go hand-in-hand though. Id pick Bear cuz I believe his techniques are sounder and have been proven in more conditions than Stroud

too bad Bear Grylls ia fake fwiw.

But yeah, Les is certainly more proven of being able to survive ALONE, without a camera crew to save his life like Bear.

Its hard to tell because Bear's show is a full blown production, I watched some of the behind the scenes stuff and there is ALOT of staging taking place. I'm surprised they showed just how much staging they do.

Having said that if you watch either show for tips or techniques then you better know how to climb mountains and vertical walls if you're going to survive off of Bear's advice. To answer the question I'd rather have Les with me

The big difference is that Survivorman limits himself to what you would actually do if you were in a survival situation by yourself.

Bear Grylls does all of the extreme shite because he has a crew of other people with him who could aid him in an emergency... hence, he can push the limits.
