Which show do you guys think is better? I think Survivorman is way better. He films everything by himself which is way more of a challenge than baer grylls constantly having a camera crew to keep him company. What do you guys think.

I will sum up what the typical responses since this like the millionth thread on the subject.

Survivorman - more realistic but boring

Man vs Wild - more entertaining but is at times staged. Grylls is a true badass though, look it up

if you actually watch the show, you will notice he often plays out different scenarios that someone may get in. is it impossible to have a lighter while your on a hike, and happen to get lost?

he's also used bullets, steel wool + battery, a flashlight, flint, and other things, as well as traditional fire starting methods using 2 sticks.

I usually like Survivor Man better because he's more American (really Canadian) and because Bear Grylls always gags on whatever he's eating.

But then I saw this

man vs wild is just insane. but in theory, I would fallow survivorman simply because its the real deal. He is on his own; True survival. JMO.

whats wrong with that? he doesn't try to hide the fact that he has a crew on stand by or anything. infact, there have been a few shows where they actually did have to get him. i would say thats a positive for the show more than anything, it shows how real it is.

Survivor Man by a long shot. The guy is a legitimate badass, and he has a number of other series/DVDs of other badass stuff to back up his degree of badass-ness.

Edit - and wtf is up with the scrolling banner at the top of the page? It says something about "Gay Bear Dating" right now.:shrug:

Nothing just was pointing out the fact is all. But like others have said Les is the real deal with his show while Grylls is a showboat look at me type that if you would do the same thing would probably get you killed.

I like man vs wild better cause he actually tries to get out of the situation, and shows you different ways to overcome obstacles. Survivor man stays in one place the whole damn week. wooptie doo.
