Bear has definitely kicked up the pace for his new season. Lot's of horrendous situations with devastating results and mishaps that lead to a test of complete endurance. Will Ferrell debuted on a special episode where he and Bear travel through frozen climate and seas of deep snow and rough terrain. The drop-in scenes have gotten more intense as well as the level of skill that it takes to inhabit such inhospitable regions as Viet Nam or just south of Siberia. Bear has the chance to take down big game that could gouge or skewer Grylls with a swipe. As for the bad parts of the season... the case in comes in. Its just a cheap fold up cardboard case with pockets that the DVDs slide into. Not very feasible and doesn't look presentable. Would have paid more for a copy that had a half-way decent case that wasn't 2 inches wider than normal DVDs. A must-have for those who enjoy the wilderly!!

Season 4 of Man vs Wild is I feel, the BEST season and also most exciting! It is like all the other MvW seasons, but combined with lots of crazy stunts! VERY exciting this season! The locations are all dramatic and classic. The episode with Will Ferrel is one you can watch over and over! I own all the other seasons that have been released on DVD, and they are all great in different ways, season 5 being the weakest, and I feel season 4 is definitely worth owning! Great season!

We, as a family, just love Bear. We own seasons 1-4 now. Sometimes there's controversy as to if every single little thing he does is by the book (SAS survival manual), but I think it's great the way he demonstrates and presents skills. I have learned a lot. If anyone is picky about HOW he does things, they need to watch the series along with reading the manual for accuracy. He is a wonderful presenter and I love his spirit. He counts to three and goes on 2. That says something about his character.
It's an exciting show that gets us excited about backpacking as a family. Some things we have read about in the manual are really great to see someone actually doing it. I also love seeing and learning about different places around the globe. I'm amazed at his ingenuity and enthusiasm. After watching 3 seasons, I'm surprised how many different things there are in season 4... it is still very interesting. I'd like to see critics do a small fraction of what Bear does.
If anything, it's a fun show. Keep it up Bear! Highly recommended!

Awesome!!
Bear just knows his stuff... nor does he try to hide the fact that there is a camera crew with him! He calls it like it is and eats anything this world has to offer!!

Conceptual Insight. A tribute to the fruits of the human effort.
Mr Grylls shows time and again why one cannot be a top survivor without being a very good climber. Decisions cannot be made without information ... Read more

He survives again...
Although most of us will likely never find ourselves in such situations, it is still possible to apply some of the techniques that Grylls uses in other less dramatic scenarios. Read more

Take with a grain of salt.
Some of the things that Grylls does would be considered very dangerous for a survival situation, and should be taken with a grain of salt.

somewhat interesting
Too many scenes look staged where excessive rather than common sense actions that are safer and more practical for the average person to perform.

Great Show I've watched all 7 seasons
Stomach-turning yet practical survival techniques are featured in each season. Glad to watch it online so that I don't have to be subjected to useless commercials.
