In a fight, Bear would win. Dropped into any wilderness and left to their own devices, I don't know.

I HATE Bear Grylls with a passion, the guy is a fake.

You want a real survival expert. Ray Mears is your man.

Never seen Les Stroud, but i hope he kicks Bear Grylls's arse and cooks him on the camp fire.

dafuq....

Les Stroud gets dropped off in whatever wilderness location. He has to do all his own camera work. It's not really a macho survival thing, but what a normal person could realistically do to improve their chances of survival.

...and he doesn't drink his own urine.

Seriously, who the hell does that. You have to be a supreme moron to drink urine. There's virtually no situation that you need to do that.

Les Stroud by a mile. I always get a kick out of the "yeah I had to do this twice to get the camera shot...".

Bear Grylls is just stupid, he teaches you to take risks in order to survive. He even made himself sick by eating rotten eggs, which (and i'm no expert) you dont want to be doing when you trying to preserve fluids.

Ray Mears trains the British Special forces in survival, and that is a qualification ill trust.

Nevertheless, Bear is still entertaining to watch though.
