His camera man is even more of a hero, he does everything bear does whilst filming it!

Yes he is. That was a repeat, but I watched it none the less. That programme combines my two dreams, powerchuting and Everest, all in one go.

Yeh i could believe that without even taking much away from him cos he always comes across in his progs that he is demonstrating isolated techniques ie - this is how to sleep on a pile of rocks in the desert but i dont have to cos its tv

All I can say is if you were stuck in a sticky spot you'd want him AND HIS camerman there

Looking forward to his new series - way more entertaining than ray mears though his progs are good too just in a different way
