Bear Grylls is the way more entertaining of the two. I don't watch it for survival tips because, quite honestly, I would probably curl up into a ball and rock back and forth gently crying if I were to ever be stranded in some of those places. If I should make a go of it, I can't imagine Grylls' advice would be good for anything other than a laugh.
Which is why I watch Bear. I watch because he drank from elephant poo, tried to kill a wild rabbit by throwing a stick at its head, created a floation device using only his cargo pants and periodically tries to catch fish using unorthodox methods, which usually involves him trying to beat them with a big stick in shallow water.
It's entertaining television. As an aside, I would love to hear what the camerapeople had to say about their little treks into the "Wild."
