Bear Grylls has survived all kinds of sh*t. On his show “Man vs Wild,” he’s had crazy adventures in arctic waters, wild rivers, quicksand, snowy mountains, rainforests, jungles, lava fields. He’s met all kinds of beasts, from lions, rhinoceros, pumas and bears to crocodiles, snakes, scorpions and bees (don’t laugh—that’s how he found out he’s allergic to their sting).
It’s a rainy morning in Cotswolds, England, and Bear Grylls is in the woods, standing in front of a roaring fire. The British survivalist—who is known for dangling from helicopters, leaping off cliffs, crossing rapids, eating absolutely anything and other forms of badassery—was doing something very un-Bear-like.
God, I hope he doesn’t make me drink my own pee. That was the first thought in my head as I set out on a 20-hour journey across the world to meet Bear Grylls.
Bear Grylls is a walking quote machine. Here are some of our favorite things that he said during our survival adventure with him.
Survivalist Bear Grylls says that one of the main reasons people die in the wild is they get their priorities wrong. “The human reaction is panic. When you’re in a very new and scary situation—the plane’s crashed or your car’s broken down or you got lost—the first reaction is you’re gonna surge with adrenaline, your heart starts going. When that happens, you start making mistakes and you can make bad situations worse.”
