I was watching the new episode of survivorman last night and it got me thinking. If the both of them had a "survive off", who would out last who?

Bear Grylls would beat him. I watch Man Vs. Wild all the time, and plus hes british and hes gone through more terrains than survivorman (to my knowledge).

i voted bear if this is a fight. but i have 100 times more respect for les because he does that all alone. plus he has all that camera gear. i also have a question. my mom gets those gossip magazines and i was reading one that said that bear was a fake. its just gossip so i dont know. anyone else know anything about that?

Bear Grylls. He said on Jimmy Kimmel that only his camera crew go to the motels, but I don't believe that.

thats pretty ignorant to say that les is a pussy. maybe u havent seen the show. he seems pretty talented to me. doubt you'd survive through what hes been through. show some respect. doubt you could do what he could.

actually, when he squeezes a fresh elephant turd into his mouth when he couldn't find water, was a bit more disgusting..

i still think he's a fraud tho. just cuz you do gross ass shit don't mean nothing.

I gotta go with Les. Anyone who can live off the land for a year (literally) is the man. And British accents drive me crazy after i've heard enough of it (no offense).

i just caught the end of an episode of survivor man while waiting for a show to comeon....

he just quit.... and started walking towards 'the saftey camp'

I think it was at the end of the 7 days when he was walking for the saftey camp, and he was in the Kalahari desert and only had like 2 drinks of water in a day or two, would you die for a tv show or go to saftey? But my vote is for survivor man because he tapes it him self and I think he has a lot more survival experience and skills.

yeah that'd be the episode... and i still don't realy vote one way or the other lol... i don't believe either really lives up to the image they project... i was just saying, i've never seen either walk away, no matter how bad shit got... and he just did.

Bear may have been SAS but he has a camera crew with him, and he does illogical and stupid shit that could get somebody with bad judgement, or no experience killed. However he undoubtedly has more combat training. In a fight, Bear would win. In a surviveoff, Les would kick his ass.

As a long-time survivalist, Ive lived off the land in Alaska for days and weeks at a time just for fun. Ive been dropped off in -40 degree weather with nothing but semi-adequate attire, a knife, and a couple matches and told to survive with a couple other boy scouts for two weeks. I went the whole two weeks and did it again the next year.

Les does things the way you are supposed to do if you are lost in the wilderness, follows all of the safest rules that will keep people alive. Oh and?? He positions the cameras himself. So if theres a camera filming him coming down a mountain, that means he went down, positioned it, then went BACK UP and down again. Then went back up to get the one filming from the top lol.

Les is the man, fuck Bears punk ass. I would kill Bear Gryllz in a fight and Id bet my life Id outsurvive him too.

Bear is a PHONY.

YouTube - Re: Man Vs. Wild, Bear Grylls is a Phony (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3UpSlpvb1is)

Besides Les is all by himself, he has to always carry 200 pounds worth of camera equipment with him.

Definitely Les, Bear is tight and crazy, but his show isn't really about surviving (especially because, yeah, some of it is staged).

Les for sure.

Les is best- Bear is into drama- unreal situations for TV- also he has a support crew always with him- bear shows off putting himself into situations of danger instead of avoiding them

straight up les shourt is alot more like a normal person and bear grills is entertaining but its more like he is in an action adventure. but discovery does agood job and both of them are sick.

Les Stroud DOES survive alone.
Bear Grills doesnt.

For that simple reason, I'm going with Les.

Les Stroud without a doubt... He's an actual survivalist, and does these things by himself for longer periods of time than Bear. Bear isn't a survivalist, but he's a Commando. Plus Bear has admitted to faking a lot of his things... seriously research it. I love both shows though :D i'm just being fair

Les is the s**t! Bear is ok, but Les is a true SURVIVOR.

i voted for bear because ive seen his show many times and he always seemed like a real bad ass. but after reading what you all have said about how he is an imposter i wish i could take my vote back. i have much respect for les the real survivorman. if i could revote i would vote for les hands down.
