I Can't agree. John Noakes would have done anything and is still a top man. Bear Grylls would have ate Shep live on tv, then been found out as a fraud. No class. Sorry.

1 word....FAKE.
THE MAN IS............. Les Hiddins, no comparison.
I'd even say that Ray Mears is better than Grylls.

Bear Grylls in ?fake? scenes controversy (From Thisisdorset)
*searches for bullingdon membership.
he was in the sas like, so willno doubt have some skills and i dare say far more than many of us, but it's just all sensationalised for tv. heis nothing more than a toff though.
I'm sure he'll be able to take criticism on the chin.

Grylls or Mears – who cares? Rising Stars
The Eton-educated survival expert has spoken for the first time about his public mauling by Ray Mears, who earlier this year dismissed Grylls as a “boy scout” and a “showman”.
Grylls called his BBC rival’s comments “rude” and “outrageous” but conceded that Mears was “much tougher” than him and welcomed being compared to a boy scout.
“I love boy scouts. They are brilliant. One of the best things this country has ever done is boy scouts,” he said.

go dave go !!

The above quote is the important bit.
I wouldn't say he is a faker, as he is ex-SAS and is one of the youngest people to climb Everest. Saying that, some of the scenes in his shows are obviously set up. He doesn't pretend otherwise - he is there to entertain primarily and then to kind of show how people could survive certain conditions.
Ray Mears is the real deal for sure though. He is the asexual King of the Wild.
I <3 Tubby Mears.

Bob Mortimer did to Ray Mears though, what Lenny Henry did to David Bellamy. I just cant ever see Mears without thinking of Bob with a bollock hanging out.
nsfw by the way.... funny as feck though.

I'd agree with the majority on here...Bear is well ard, ex para, ex sas, where he was a freefall/Halo instructor - broke his back, in a jump accident, left the army then became the youngest climber ever to climb Mt Everest. Now hosts his own show - and yes there's things in there that are faked, and simulated, but on the whole isnt that the experience that the public want?
Ray on the other hand is completely mad, a real outdoors survivalist, he can whittle a canoe quicker than you can make a pot of nettle tea.
But his show cracks me up, as there he is demonstrating survival techniques and he's got his tent, and a wood-burning stove!!
in order to carry all that kit around he must be well fit. yet he looks a bit of a porker....he obviously eats too many acorns
Either way I find both shows enjoyable, and harmless...unless you're a beaver and see Bear walking toward you drooling at the mouth

All these shows have certain parts faked. Health and safety dictates what they can and cant do. TV shows these days have to abide by the law.
Grylls is by far the best of the bunch though. His shows (fake or otherwise) are very entertaining.
