Here is the summaries of each from Wikipedia:
QUOTE Les Stroud (Born October 20, 1962 in Mimico, Ontario[1][2]) is a Canadian musician, film maker, and survival enthusiast best known as the host of the television program Survivorman. After a short career behind the scenes in the music industry, Stroud became a full-time wilderness guide, survival instructor and musician based in Huntsville, Ontario. Stroud has produced survival-themed programming for The Outdoor Life Network, The Discovery Channel, and The Science Channel. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Les_Stroud QUOTE Bear Grylls (born 7 June 1974) is a British mountaineer and adventurer as well as best-selling author, television presenter, and international motivational speaker. Grylls, a former member of the British Special Forces, made his name by becoming, at the age of 23, the youngest Briton to climb Mount Everest and return alive in 1998. He hosts the television programme Born Survivor: Bear Grylls (also known as Man vs. Wild on the Discovery Channel worldwide and Channel 4 in the UK). He was formerly the host of the television show, Escape to the Legion which was also on Channel 4 in the UK & on the Military Channel. Grylls is currently filming new HD episodes of the born survivor series. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bear_Grylls -------------------- LANCE IS PRO-CENSORSHIP! HE IS CENSORING MY LOVE FOR THE LORD!

who would you rather have if you were stranded in the wilderness:
1) Guy who was in the british special forces for 3 years, and has climbed mt everest. 2) Guy who has been a wilderness guide for over 20 years, and has been a survival instructor for 13 years, as well as had experience living out in the wilderness for as long as a year with almost no contact with the outside world. I suppose who is the "bigger badass" is up for debate, but who is the better survivalist is pretty obvious. especially considering he films his own show, whereas the other guy has a crew with him (no doubt with a full contingent of gear and food). |

Your claims of crew interference are completely unfounded. The survivorman wins just because he has to carry his own camera? I'd most definitely rather be stuck with a former SAS badass. It's not his fault he only served 3 years in the military, he broke his back jumping from a plane at age 21. What did he do? Spent a year in rehab and the climbed Mt. Everest at age 23! There are a lot of hippies that run off into the woods and live there (By your very own definition that is what this makes Survivorman, a dirty, smelly hippy!). As far as I can tell the formats of the show are different (only seen one episode of Survivorman). Survivorman teaches you how to live somewhere for a week, while Bear teaches you how to get the hell out of there with your life. -------------------- LANCE IS PRO-CENSORSHIP!

Spent a year in rehab and the climbed Mt.
