Not sure if there's any other Man vs. Wild fans on here.. but I can never get enough of this show. Tonight's episode sounds wicked.

The camera is usually following him.. and rarely, if ever, lead the way. But for all we know the camera guy is also an uber survivalist expert. |

Good, I'm not the only Rager that watches this show. I watched a few episodes one night and now I can't get enough of it.
ETA: I keep thinking that "Rager" says "Roger". |

The british version is a top show. Bear is a total legend. Getting water out of dung and that sort of thing. |

Aye, he is. In an episode of this show he's up in some snowy mountaintops. He talked about how people step on snow that's only a few inches thick, covering a giant, deep cavern in the mountain. So he made this rope thing, I believe and tied knots in it, so when you fall the knots catch on the ledges and stop your from falling.
Well, in the episode he never gets to use it so at the end he just jumps off a freakin' cliff and it catches him. Point proven but INSANE. |

It could be the version we had here. He was in the lake explaining how to get out whilst enduring his frozen balls heck like a man. |

Found it. Only a man purposely throws themself into a frozen lake, gets back out, strips naked, rubs themself with snow and does some press ups. |

I can't imagine the shrinkage he got from that.
But I laughed when he started doing push ups.  |
