Bear Grylls is a seasoned adventurer who served with the Special Air Service, a special forces unit of the British army, where he was trained as a survival expert. His experiences include climbing Mount Everest, crossing the freezing North Atlantic Ocean in a small, open boat and climbing a Himalayan peak described by Sir Edmund Hillary as ‘unclimbable’. He has been places and done things that would defeat most normal people. But now, he is up against something completely different.
In each episode of Man vs. Wild Bear strands himself in popular wilderness destinations where tourists often find themselves lost or in danger. As he finds his way back to civilization, he demonstrates local survival techniques, including escaping quicksand in the Moab Desert, navigating dangerous jungle rivers in Costa Rica, crossing ravines in the Alps and surviving sharks off Hawaii.
Episode(s) تعداد قسمتها :
1- The Rockies
2- Moab Desert
The Moab Desert in Utah is one of the top extreme sports destinations in the United States, with more than a million visitors each year. But sweltering temperatures and deadly predators can make it very dangerous. Bear is dropped into the desert to demonstrate how a lost hiker can make it back to civilization, with merely a bottle of water, a knife and a flint. On his journey, he travels down a maze of narrow canyons, stumbles upon rattlesnakes, and escapes quicksand, showing viewers how to survive in one of the harshest environments on the planet.
3- Costa Rican Rainforest
Each year, 500,000 Americans visit Costa Rica to explore some of the world`s most amazing and environmentally significant wilderness preserves. Last year alone, more than 50 visitors had to be rescued by the Red Cross. Bear sets out on an incredible jungle adventure as he parachutes into the rain forest of Costa Rica`s Osa Peninsula to demonstrate how someone lost in the jungle can make it out alive. His journey takes him up 100-foot trees and down waterfalls that descend more than 120 feet. He encounters snakes, mosquitoes and dangerous river currents, while searching for food and water and setting up camp.
4- Alaskan Mountain Range
Thousands of skiers, snowboarders and mountain climbers visit Alaska each year in search of virgin snow, and hundreds of people end up lost in the wilderness. Armed with only a bottle of water, a knife and a flint, Bear`s challenge is to make it to the coast from where he hopes to find signs of civilization. During his journey, he travels down extreme mountain slopes, over glaciers and through bear-infested forests, and navigates a small boat through treacherous ice floes. Bear shows viewers what it takes to survive in one of the coldest environments on earth.
5- Hawaii: Mount Kilauea
The Big Island of Hawaii is home to the world`s most active volcano, Mount Kilauea. Since 1992, it has been in a state of constant eruption, spitting out clouds of poisonous sulphuric gases from the soil. Here, the landscape is denuded of plant life, devoid of water and few animals are ever seen. Beneath the unstable surface lies a river of molten rock boiling at temperatures above 2,000 degrees F. Surrounding this volcanic landscape is a dense rain forest, which offers environmental relief but features dangers of its own. To highlight the skills necessary to survive, Bear abseils from a helicopter into this treacherous expanse and demonstrates how to create a gas mask, escape from a moving lava flow, find water in a lava tube and get honey from a bee`s nest.
6- Sierra Nevada
Every year, 4 million hikers and climbers are drawn to the majestic Sierra Nevada, one of the greatest mountain ranges in the country. With more than 400 miles of terrain and mountain peaks reaching 14,000-plus-feet high, the Sierras are breathtaking. But this spectacular wilderness is deceptively dangerous; hundreds of people become stranded there each year. One wrong turn can turn into a struggle to stay alive. Bear shows viewers how to survive in the Sierra`s three major mountainous regions: alpine, woodlands and chaparral. He parachutes into an alpine lake, free-climbs down steep cliffs, and rafts down white-water rapids. Utilizing his knowledge of American Indian survival techniques, Bear builds shelters, calms wild horses, and finds food.
7- African Savannah
More than 100,000 Americans visit Kenya each year in search of a safari. But what they don`t know about life in the wild can kill them. Bear surveys the Kenyan landscape from a hot air balloon, then he parachutes down onto the arid plain. Upon hitting the ground, Bear is immediately surrounded by dangerous animals, including rhinoceros, lions, leopards, elephants, and buffalo. Traveling across the African plains, Bear demonstrates how to navigate by the stars, track a lion kill, cross crocodile and hippo-filled rivers and drink the water squeezed from elephant dung!
8- European Alps
Every year, 120 million people ski and climb the 80,000 square miles of the Alps, Europe`s greatest mountain range. Unfortunately, every year hundreds of people die enjoying this beautiful wilderness because they`re unable to survive the potentially fatal conditions at heights sometimes reaching 15,000 feet. Armed with a knife, a water bottle, a cup and a flint, Bear parachutes into the Alps to demonstrate vital survival skills. From a radical new technique to save lives in crevasse zones to building a snow shelter and showing viewers how to escape from a fall into a frozen lake, Bear puts his own skills to the test in this ultimate survival challenge.
9- Desert Island
When people fantasize about being stranded on a desert island, they never realize how inhospitable that climate can be. The feelings of isolation, vulnerability and hunger soon kick in, making it essential to know how to survive. Equipped with just a handful of supplies, Bear parachutes to one of Hawaii`s 130 uninhabited surrounding islands, evading toxic coral, highly poisonous jellyfish and sharks as he swims to shore. Bear demonstrates how to survive as he spears fish, collects rainwater, builds a shelter, and plans his escape from one of humankind`s most dangerous destinations.
