Have you seen Man vs Nature?

Is this the same guy that teaches you how to survive in the wilderness? There was one episode when he went in the middle of the Amazon and he taught the audience how to eat something that you're not sure if poisonous - first you rub it on your skin then you wait for a couple of minutes, then you rub it on your lip, then your tongue, then you try to chew it, then if nothing happens then there's a big chance that you can swallow it :) I think it's a pretty cool show. Thanks for the response on my discussion!

Oh this was one of my favourite shows.

Are you talking about Man vs Wild on the Discovery channel? If this is what you are talking about it, I used to watch it every once in a while. I think his whole point is to show you how to survive if you get stranded in the middle of nowhere. He does do some pretty disgusting things, but it's to show you what to do if ever you were stuck in a similar situation. I got bored with teh show though, because basically it's the same stuff. Some of the extreme stuff i saw him do was jump in freezing water (like near icebergs) and the grossest was drink his own urine(when he was out in the desert) .

I don't care for him. I'd much rather watch Survivorman and learn something useful. Anora
