Really?

I do a lot of outdoor adventuring and Grylls is a joke. Most of the stuff he does is the dumbest call, worst advice, or just outright unnecessarily stupid. When he does something that actually is valid, you can tell it's his first time because it's done so badly and he misses the obvious stuff.

No idea who Survivorman is, but I assume just another TV celebrity that's found a niche.

Survivorman is the man Bear Grylls wishes he were

Survivorman is Les Shroud and he is the real deal. He was a survival expert long before he started to make TV. His whole deal is he just gets dumped somewhere, along with a shitload of camera gear. Then he has to walk out, often walking parts twice to go pick up his cameras.

It's more about nature with Les and not so much about the surviving part. He does explain a lot about what to do and what not to do, but being in nature and being a part of nature is a large aspect of his show. It isn't sensationalized, the dangers are never overstated. And he usually has a satphone on him and an agreed time and location for extraction. But he is actually out there for a week all on his own and not like most shows where the crew just drives to a location to shoot a scene and then go back to the hotel later.
