Is Bear Grylls Man vs Wild Fake Discovery Channel India

Read Time:3 Minute, 32 Second

Everyone has watched at least one episode of TV’s most famous survival show Man vs Wild. It has been many years since the show debuted on TV and Bear Grylls has become a well-known name in the US and UK as well as in India. We have all seen Bayer Grylls on this show teaching him different ways to fight big threats and save lives if he gets lost in the forests and mountains. But have you ever thought that all these things were false?

It has happened not once or twice but many times that Bayer Grylls’ show Man vs Wild has been described as false and fake. This show has been talked about many times and critics have raised many questions on it. Not only this, many crew members and others have also removed the curtain from the fact that the show is fake. So what are the things that tell that man vs wild is fake? Let’s talk about this:

The first thing you should know is that Bear Grylls is not a survival expert. Bayer was part of the UK Military’s 21st SAS division before the show began in 2006. Yes, he did some amazing adventures at a young age like climbing Mount Everest at the age of 23 and hosting a dinner party in a hot-air balloon 25,000 feet above the ground. Although both these things are praiseworthy, they do not fall in the category of survival expert.

There are accusations during the show on Bayer Grylls that he does not really live in the jungles and mountains during the adventure. According to a survival expert, Bayer Grylls stayed in a local lodge to spend the night shooting in the mountains of Sierra Nevada. Not only this, Bear Grylls, once stranded on a deserted island, was actually on the archipelago of Hawaii and spent nights in a local hotel.

Apart from this, it has also been said about this show of Bayer Grylls that the survival techniques taught by Bayer Grylls can harm you rather than profit. Apart from this, many of their measures are fake. In one episode, Bayer had told how one can drink water from elephant dung. Les Survoid, the instructor of another survival show Survivorman, told Reddit that it is not possible to do so.

Apart from this, bare Grylls is not exactly the best way to avoid jumping off the mountains and wetting your body at every opportunity. If experts agree, instead of jumping and jumping on the mountains, you should get down comfortably. If you have any type of injury in your leg, you will never be able to get out of your situation. Apart from this, wetting the body quickly is a very bad idea. You may complain of hypothermia when the body is wet.

It has been said about Man vs Wild and Bear Grylls that many of their scenes are fake. Apart from this, the crew of Bear Grylls helps them in many tasks for survival. Like the wild horse caught by Bare Grill in one episode was actually domesticated. Also in one episode, Bayer was shown crossing the hot lava, which was actually made from hot coal and a smoke machine. Also, in one episode, Bayer Grylls was shown making wooden rafts to take to the water, which was actually helped by experts and crew. There have also been many times when crew members have given the need and tools to Bayer.

Bare grills and Discovery Channel had also admitted that some scenes of the show were fake. While talking to the BBC, Bayer had apologized and said that if anything misleading happened in this series, he was sorry about it. Apart from this, Discovery Channel admitted that some things in the show were not natural and they will try to improve it from next time.
