It's not your opinion at all.....it's the honest truth. That guy is a complete moron, I do not watch his show and I tell anyone I can not to watch that junk.

The only reason why I have SOME respect for him is that he successfully climbed Everest on his first try.

But that's it.

He's a fake. Some folks are still denying it. Why would they deny it if CHANNEL 4 released the information?

I prefer Survivorman, Les Stroud is pretty hardcore

Moved. :)

I know it is a show intended to show what you could do in times of need, but i don't think it's absolutely necessary to go that far...sorry about my rant but that just really annoyed me. He just walked up on the snake that was bothering noone and killed it, brutally i have to say.

I don't know if this is your first time watching this show but ummmmm..... He kills something in every episode..... Why is it such a big deal that he kills a boa but it is all good when he kills a rabbit or a beetle or a bird?

The difference between killing an adult boa (and large lizards, in this case too) and killing beetles and birds is that the boas and lizards are apex predators, and thus have a more important role in the ecosystem.

I'm trying not to get upset, Mike, I'm really trying... :taz:

I do understand what you are saying but I do not think that is why the OP was upset......

I love you Dutchy.....

Mike

Maybe he wants people in florida to eat the rogue snakes?

i dunno you guys he's kinda the man....i know he kills everything and that seems kinda messed up but he only has the stuff with him in case of an emergency...also you can't say he's a fake because the man is ex british special forces which is pretty up there if you ask me.....and he climbed everest haha

I couldn't watch it all the way. There is NO need to show people how to kill anything. Heck he had a gun why not make it a quick death for the poor thing. It makes me sick that just because it is a "snake" it has to be a monster. There are plenty of monsters that walk on two legs and he is one of them.
