The Ghost Posted June 15, 2013 Report Share Posted June 15, 2013 My Dyslexia kicked in with this post thought it was...Bare Girls Like watching him but....If Bear Grylls thinks he is experienced in-hostile environments...I would love to see him in Moss-side Manchester or Glasgow they would show him some new knife skills.

ack-ack Posted June 15, 2013 Report Share Posted June 15, 2013 As much as i think he's a shiner he's a good role model for da kidz innit. He went up in my estimation when i saw him modelling a wet suit of flayed seal skin. The look on his face was a picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samboy Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 I would not like to live next door to Ray Mears, he is always lighting fires i would be scared my house would burn down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchieboy Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 Best one I've seen was when he ate a goats nut I'll bet the gaot wasn't too happy about that! The mans a fraud! Let's face it, how many times have you been out and found a dead deer, sheep, goat or camel that is still fresh enough to eat, and even if you did would you even consider eating it without knowing what it died of? As has been said send him to Moss Side or Brixton at closing time on a friday night and see how well he survives - Mind you he should find a few half eaten Kebabs or KFCs to help him to "survive" the cold hard night!

Gimlet Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 (edited) The words "bell" and "end" spring to mind, as they do with Ben Fogle and that over-excited muscley bloke with the squeaky voice who does those wildlife/adventure shows. Urban, public school, dumbed-down Blue Peter presenters who treat the audience like five year old. Kate Humble is the female version. Ghastly. David Attenborough, Ray Mears and Jack Hargreaves for me. Grown up presenters for grown ups. Edited June 16, 2013 by Gimlet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruno22rf Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 While BG is out in the wilds facing every danger under the sun all alone-who is operating the camera and sound equipment? If he thinks he is really hard I challenge him to eat a Tesco 8 items for £2.50 breakfast without up chucking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lister1 Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 I always thought Bear was a bit soft but I read one of his books recently and now have a lot more respect for him. He climbed everest after breaking bhis back. He's raised lots of money for charity. He went to posh schools but under protest and admits he's not bery academic. He says about his tv shows and you would be supprised at how much he does. Do you think even Ray Mears has no support when out in the wild.

oscarsdad Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 Certainly not Ray Mears as half of the show isn't him whittling a spoon and saying 'artisan' every other word Exactly. Mears is so dull...he spend half the time squatting in his micro shorts showing us his undercarriage and the other half whittling a nice brooch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul65 Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 I like Bear Grylls shows. I don't really care if after the days filming he sleeps in a hotel, it's TV. If I was stuck in harsh terrain and I had to get out, I'd pick Bear Grylls to be my guide rather than Ray 'Hello Clouds, Hello Sky' Mears every time. Sometimes you have to take a serious risk, rather than sit drinking herbal tea and whittling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Ray i could drink the herbal tea whittle a spoon and walk out of trouble in a week or two. If things go realy bad i could kill my guide with a sharp tap to the back of the head and eat them and Ray has a lot more meat than a tough Bear Grylls.

lister1 Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 No disrespect lister1-if its in his book (that he's trying to sell you) then it must be fact eh? More likely to be true than a tv series. I know what your saying. Any tv series has to have some form of safety net. Lets not forget that Bear Grylls was a member if the SAS so he must know a little bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
compo90 Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 Ray actually does the stuff, Bear did when he was in the SAS T.A................a mate of mine knows Ray.....who also shoots. that should win him fans here. If i was on a plane that crashed in the wilds i would rather Ray was a fellow surviving passenger than Bear. Bears are big, hairy and **** in the woods, Bear isn't that big, isn't hairy and we all know he ****s at the travel lodge.......................my wife sometimes calls me Bear, as i am big, i am very hairy and you have guessed the third Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walking would be ok but you'd be in trouble if you needed to do any jumping. Ray doesn't do jumping. Or clambering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time I looked, Mears was BDS accredited witness for DSC level 2. Anyone else getting a touch of deja vu with this thread? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
