I love watching Survivor Man & Man vs. Wild. Where would you choose to get lost & where would you hate to be?

I wouldn't last a day in the snow or jungle. But I think I'd do all right in the Navaho Desert, or in the mountains (w/little snow).

Update:

Thanks for you input! I have to agree with both of you. I do like Wes better, b/c he tries out techniques, even if they may not work and he is always left with little or no materials to survive.

Bear Grylls is also very helpful, but it is kind of cheesy that he has a whole camera crew following him. Wes does it all alone which is sooo much sweeter. But I do feel that I would be able to better survive b/c of Bear Grylls and all of his teachings, but I think it's b/c Discovery allways repears Man vs. Wild and I hardly ever get to see Survivorman. Also the "I Shouldn't Be Alive" series is pretty friggin awesome too!

Did you ever see Bear Grylls pee on his shirt in the desert and drap it over his head to cool down...EWE! Or when he drank water from Elephant dung. It's sick when he does his climbing too, but even then I don't know how "real" it is, with his camera crew right beside him.

    I can't get enough of these 2 shows. I like both guys. But you gotta give it up to Les for doing his own camera work. At least Bear has a camera crew to keep him company.

    I feel sorry for Les though. You know the producer's telling him to go get this "great shot", put the camera down and walk like a half mile away...then the poor guy's gotta come back for the camera.

    I think the only time I was ever halfway disturbed was when Bear was knawing on a raw zebra carcus. That was nasty.

    The cold would screw me up if I wasn't dressed properly for it.

    hey i love those shows too, but i prefer survivor man over man vs wild, because Bear Grylls just tries to show off and Les Stroud actually has good advice, i would hate to be stranded in the snow like in Canada way up north, or in the swamps, i might do okay in the desert or tropical island
