Man vs. Wild {Gadling}
Jan 5th 2007 10:19PM I love the fact that the person who wrote the most about this show is the same one criticizing all of us for writing minute blogs. Take your own advice, get off the computer, and expand your mind. Bottom line, everybody can make their own opinions about the show but think of it as a comparison to Survivorman. Which show would you rather watch if you really were going to be endangered in the wild? Which show seems more authentic? And to those of you who are questioning fellow bloggers' abilities in the wild are usually the ones who haven't spent time in the wild. As an adventure guide, I can honestly say that I'd rather be traveling with Les Stroud any day.

Nov 24th 2006 10:42PM Man vs. Wild is an absolute joke. Survivorman was an excellent show and Les Stroud actually put himself in compromising situations that can really happen to travelers. Not to mention he acted as his own cameraman which is a ridiculously difficult feat in itself. Man vs. Wild isn't very convincing because obviously, Bear (does anyone else question if that's his real name or not?) has a cameraman that is as skilled as he is. i wonder if the cameraman spent a few years in the special forces? regardless of all this, does this show help people in the real world? probably not. i don't see many travelers leaping like gazelle from rock to rock for four days. it's highly impropable. i also don't see people parachuting into the alps and stumpling upon rope bridges. the people who decided to produce this show should get a refund.
