Basically, Bear does that, but he wraps it up in a survival soap opera. I think he gives people some bad ideas though.
I remember the South Dakota episode where he left the plains and entered the Badlands because there was a road down in there. Probably safer to find a road on the prairie ehh, Bear?

Les Stroud did a show to show you wht to do like if your car was caught in a flood and situations like that. I gree though, Bear takes too many risks that the normal person is not going to be able nor have the desire to take. Especially if you have never done it before.
Stroud has shown how to build fires, what a ****ing idea, from everything but matches. Bear always has his magnesium stick on him. Stroud also shows you how to buld snares and drop traps contrary to what the other guy says.
I watched Les start a fire last night using a LED flashlight. I have seen him start fires with rubbin sticks, using a battery and using fluids in a first aid kit.
I have seen Bear do nothing other than use his magnesium stick.,
Les also shows you how to strip down whatever equipment you may have and how to use it to your advantage.
Clearly Survivorman is the more practical of the shows as more hikers\bikers\snowmobiler's will find themsevles in his situations rather than Bear's.
