Quote:I like Survivorman with Les Stroud. Not a fan of Bear Grylls, plus Stroud does his own filming with no camera crew.

 

Very true, but my problem with Les is that he does things you shouldn't do.

 

Grylls may stage a lot of stuff, but at least he does more things the "right way."

 

Example - I've seen Les eat snow for survival.  Big no no.  You melt it in your canteen or container before drinking so that you don't risk lowering your core temperature as much as eating it frozen.  Les tends to use older, traditional (perhaps even "ancient") methods of the past - where Grylls' training has taught him newer/safer/more efficient techniques that are better to use in some circumstances (in addition to the more traditional basics Les also employs.)
