Bear Grylls the host of Man vs. Wild appears to have suffered his first defeat at the hands of the wild.
If the wild can hurt Bear who could possilby be safe?

At least it was in freezing condition so his wound wouldn't have been contaminated as much. munu9lol I can see my bone, I hope I don't get an infection. :P
[QUOTE="not_wanted"]It's just a flesh wound.duxupOf bone protruding out of his skin according to the article :oIt's Bear Grylls so...:P
The aim of the expedition, which was not part of filming for the Discovery Channel, was to promote alternative energy and bioethanol as a source of power, as well as raising funds for the children's charity Global Angels. Daily Mail UK
Well, that's pretty cool.
If successful, Bear and his team of four had planned to name the 9,000ft peak. But it is uncertain if the bid will now be possible, though Bear is reportedly determined to return to Antarctica.Daily Mail UK
Aw, so we won't be having a "Mt. Bear" or "The Peak of Grylls" anytime soon?
I should tell my girlfriend :o She's met him. Also, what a madman! "He was not filming for Discovery, but instead was taking part in an independent expedition." He was just having a bit of fun doing what he does for money, for free.JandurinNo actually as the article says "The aim of the expedition, which was not part of filming for the Discovery Channel, was to promote alternative energy and bioethanol as a source of power, as well as raising funds for the children's charity Global Angels" Not the first big injury he has substained, he'll be back and ready to kick more ***
He stays in 5 star hotels over night when he is filming... so its nice to see he actually did something properly, even if he did hurt himself.Samwel_XI didn't know they have 5 star hotels in Antarctica. lol

I'm fairly sure Bear has some contacts with them.

they probably did that on purpose, just to prove to us that it's not fake.polishkid99I hope you are joking. :lol:
they probably did that on purpose, just to prove to us that it's not fake.polishkid99lol what? The only thing fake was that he stayed in hotels a few times, but he still did things on the show that could have ingured his like this.
Based on the number of episodes of that show it would appear the score is: Bear (Man): 35 Wild: 1duxup
I think Bear Grylls should get an extra point because, well, his name is BEAR GRYLLS.
That is just the most hardcore name ever.
Dude drank his own pee. I don't think that came from a 5 star hotel, or at least none that I've stayed at.noooz! :cry:
get well soon bear!
and will people stop saying its fake and he stays in 5 star hotels, yes the guy gets help from profesionals and crew but he still does IT ALL

Personally, I still think that the name "Wolf Blitzer" is still slightly more badass.
