content: No, the screaming the next day when those 40 pins are MRE's ( Meals Refusing to Exit) would be more entertaining.

Bear..not so much:http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-470460/Bear-faced-cheek-adventurer-sneaked-hotels.htmlSorry I know the original topic was that Dave and Bear might look a bit alike, but I cringe with the thought anyone putting both of them in the same category, regardless of the category.Rant off.

content: Quote from: EEVblog on May 25, 2012, 01:43:55 amI am not saying he doesn't do them, and I am not saying it is easy. All I'm saying a survival specialist he isn't.It is just a scripted "reality" show, of which I am not too keen to watch any. Especially, when it is so badly scripted. I deserve to be deceived intelligently.Like I do remember a scene were he unsuccessfully tried to hunt a "wild" goat for hours, until he "found" one tied to a tree. The locals "gave" it to him. Sure, sure. Locals in that supposedly deserted part where he was trying to survive because no one is there to help him, gave him a wild goat for free, by just tying one to a tree where he could stumble upon it. Man, just because the TV crew wasn't able to successfully stage the hunt for that likely very same goat they brough, they need not pull such nonsense out of their arse.
