Man vs. Wild with Bear Grylls is an awesome show. I recently stumbled upon it while flicking channels on SBS in Australia. I can't believe how behind we are as they are up to Season 6 in USA! This guy is awesome - episodes are jam packed with reality TV action - not the cheesy kind but the informative/entertainment kind. At the beginning of every episode Bear Grylls gets "delivered" to some remote part of the world - usually by jumping out of a Helicopter. The goal is to survive with just a knife and a flint while trying to make it to civilisation. He survives by eating and drinking anything and everything, builds shelters and just raw energy... climbing up impossible crevices and walls - rock climbing with no harness! He's eaten everything from the meat of rotting animals to bugs and beetles, squishy spiders and maggots. He's taken a drink of his own piss and from the moisture of elephant dung. Worth a watch for the adventure inclined...
