Les Stroud VS. Bear Grills, who would win?

[IcedTea33]

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).

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.

ROFL

[hippy lettuce]

Yeah it was in all the papers that Bear went back to motels and stuff after being filmed but I don't know if its true or not...but he was in the SAS so the guys gotta b ard lol :thumbsup:

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'

[not_the_kitty]

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.

[slipknotpsycho]

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 sleeps in motels and eats at lodges so les!

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

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).
