0:54 - yeaaah cool...(not)

Ray its very best at these things i appreciate him . I think Bear Grylls is fake but it doesnt matters , we must take whats good from his show -> the things that what he says are true.

[MooseHunter911]

wow you can actually survive away from civilization with out drinking your own piss? who knew

[PrAnKsTeRJJ]

is this from a children's programme?

[Zippy1one]

He reminds me of Benny Hill

@jimyjamyninjas Yeah exactly. Bear and Ray are equally talented when it comes to bushcraft but the mainstream media cuts down the potential for what us bushman crave

[jimyjamyninjas]

@guitarmaster125 belive me, alot of what Bear does in his shows are fake, but it dosen't mater cause he is ex military and knows the training. but Ray is definately the number 1 survival expert in my opinion.

[guitarmaster125]

@ReyMysterioRO Theres nothing fake about Bear but I believe it is over-produced and does not contain all that It should. The Discovery Network most likely trashes some of the information to make it more "appealing" to the viewers although fans like myself am a backpacker like Bear. I think Ray puts a lot more heart into his work and doesn't let the mainstream alter his productions which why I enjoy these videos.

bear grylls is just an old army guy that know the skills they learn to survive only in the army....ray mears knows everything.

I love Ray, I also love Bear Grylls. Of course they both receive some form of help in making these shows. Were did ray get His egg in this scene? obviously for the benefit of the TV they cheat a little! Forget all the by product, these shows are fantastic and noone can say that they are any less capable of fending for themselves having viewed a few...Wonderful men doing something good, enjoy them as the world is full of Cretins with ill intent.
