I agree R93 that the shows Grylls filmed in New Zealand showed up flaws to those of us that have spent time in (and know a little about) our bush. The reality though is that the man is in the business of making shows that bring in viewers and create high ratings. There is no doubting the man's fitness and ability but in my view where the show falls down is in that I find myself asking whether he would take the same degree of risk were he truly alone.
