I meant to post earlier about how much I love this show. Then I really remembered because I'm watching the episode "Mexican Desert Island" and he's using cigars to transport his fire.I've been watching the show for a few years now. I love it, it inspires me to get outdoors more. Plus I like that it's just him and his cameras.

I love Les Stroud. I haven't seen the cigar episode! That's too cool

Bear Grylls is an idiot compared to Les Stroud.

My team leader in Afghanistan and I would always argue because I'm in the Stroud camp and he's in the Grylls camp.

I agree

Bear Grylls has the manly name on lock... but Les is the real deal. Doing his own filming is just insane.

Right. Les is out there alone all by himself with his cameras. Plus I've never seen Les take unecessary risks Like Bear. I guess that's because Bear has his own paramedics and camera crew chasing after him. I guess that safety net he has encourages him to take risks like drinking juice from elephant turds just for shock value.

I love those survival shows. Grylls is more entertaining for TV, but following his advice would get you killed quick in a dire situation. "Hey lets slide down this 20ft waterfall without knowing the pool depth below!"
