Man Vs. Wild



Another show testing the strength of man.  A survivor named Bear Grylls gets dropped off in random areas across the world in his challenge to survive the devastating conditions of the areas.  This show is available on the discovery channel and he teaches not only how the place is harmful but also the ways to survive.  He gets dropped off in the beginning of the episode in a place where the weather is deep in the 100 degrees or really low to where you could freeze to death.  When he is getting dropped off he doesn't know where he will get placed.  He is not alone however when trying to survive and look for human-life, he is assisted by the camera man.  Well... I'm not sure if the camera man helps him out, but he is the one recording Bear's every move.  Sometimes when they are climbing up really steep walls the camera man messes up and gets stuck in a corner, and Bear is sometimes put to the situation where he is to save him.

There is something huge that you need to know when he is getting dropped off: He gets dropped off without any equipment or food. You are probably wondering how he survives?  Well... it is actually quite amazing how he does it.  He goes around the area looking for anything that is eatable.  He sure has a stomach of steel because he will be going from eating a snake to a tarantula spider.  He always eats the thing that he says he will eat even if it looks completely un-eatable.  Just from looking at the things he eats Im pretty sure he must take some sort of medication behind the scenes.  I have sure learned a lot on how to survive on certain areas in the world and I am pretty sure you will learn many new things.  There are things that I would normally do in the situations he would be in that he says could be very dangerous. So he tells people what the best thing to do in certain situations is.
This show is just absolutely amazing and I encourage you to watch it.  It is even a great show to watch with your family.  I can just picture me and my family getting all grossed out just watching him eat a rabbit or some insect.  Bear is a man who is fearless and he always finds his way to civilization where he gets saved.  This show is for everyone except people with weak stomachs (if you can't watch the things he eats).  Enjoy and learn the many ways to survive in such tough conditions.
