Anyone have a chance to watch this show on the Discovery channel? He’s incredible.
Yes, he is a very talented survivalist and documentary film-maker. The first time I remember seeing him was on a “Reality” documentary about a group of British guys joining the French Foreign Legion (something I often dreamed about in my early days at college). Bear Grilles (sp?) was still an officer in the the FFL, and I suspect he was primarily responsible for the production of that program. I enjoy watching (more than doing) this kind of activity.
