Bear Grylls - “Survive at all costs” (66 photos)
"Survive at All Costs" is an adventure show on the Discovery Channel in which host Bear Grylls lands in all sorts of wild places and shows viewers how to survive and find help. The program is also known as “Man vs. Wild", "Born Survivor".
Bear Grylls, a survival specialist and former British SAS soldier, shows how to behave in situations where you find yourself in the wilderness as a result of an air or sea crash, or as a lost tourist. He usually carries with him a knife, a flask of water and a flint (sometimes a rope or parachute). The program shows skills in navigating the terrain, getting food, building simple housing and finding water. In recent seasons there are episodes where Bear Grylls spends time with the local tribes of the places where filming takes place and learns survival skills from them.
If you manage to catch fish, you have to eat it raw. The main thing in survival is energy and protein. And sometimes you have to eat different kinds of medicines, snakes and insects.
In one of the episodes, Bear Grylls had to get out of a desert island, and he decided to take a desperate step, building a raft.
Watching on TV, it seems that he is completely alone in the huge ocean and you can’t even see that the sound engineer is sitting next to him so that you and I can hear Bear well :) The film crew, naturally, does not help him in any way, at most if he is dying, they will help him. Everything in the show is fair.
Making your way through impassable swamps is unrealistic work.
Sometimes it happens.
The broadcasts are filmed from chilling Patagonia. subtropical jungles to hot deserts.
In general, Bear Grylls is the real last hero! :)
In 2005, together with balloonist and mountaineer David Hampleman-Adams and Lieutenant Commander Alan Veal, head of the Royal Navy Parachute Team, Bear Grylls set the world record for the highest formal dinner party, which they held in a balloon at 25,000 feet (7,620 meters). , dressed in formal dinner uniform and oxygen masks. For training, before this event, Grylls performed two hundred parachute jumps
Many people think that the dangerous part of filming is our deadly shots, but more often than not it's the weather or the environment, which can be even more dangerous. In Australia, for example, it was 40 degrees with 100 percent humidity, which means your body can't cool down. It was unbearably hot, but we continued filming. That's when it gets really hard.
The program featured such stunts as Grylls climbing a cliff, parachute jumping from a helicopter, balloon and airplane, paragliding, climbing a glacier, crossing river rapids, wrapping a urine-soaked T-shirt around his head, drinking his own urine to escape the heat in desert, fighting an alligator, sleeping inside a camel carcass and jumping from a waterfall. Grylls also tells stories of travelers who got lost or died in the wild. The program reaches an audience of more than 1.2 billion people, becoming one of the highest-rated programs on the Discovery Channel.
