My husband says he likes Survivorman as well - I haven't come across it yet. I do agree with the safety things you said. I think the plan is to show people what to do as last resourts. It does help me to get rid of some of my fears. I have always been afraid of ice crevices ever since I went to nursing school with a man who worked as a ranger at the Columbian Icefields. I know the crevices are deadly, but to see a person actually overcome one, it gives me a bit of a relief that they can be conquered (if for some strange reason I was lost up on top of a mountain...). I think it gives my children a bit more of a realistic look at the world we live in so when we do go camping, they are less likely to wander off - a parent thing where, if I told them, it wouldn't mean as much as if Bear said it. Thanks for your response!
I am just wondering if there are any Bear fans out there? My family and I rather enjoy the show - I think it is of great value and gives me a bit more confidence for camping with my family (we are tenters...). I also enjoy the strange places - He was in the Moab Dessert "last night" which I had never seen footage of before. I don't think I will take my kids there anytime soon!!!!
