From their website -

MAN VS. WILD
New Survival Series Starring Bear Grylls Premieres Friday, Nov. 10, at 9 p.m. ET/PT.

Have you ever wondered what it's like to face death with only your inner strength, determination and base survival instincts to fall back on?

MAN VS. WILD follows mountaineer/explorer and former special forces soldier Bear Grylls as he relives the most epic stories of human survival.

This is no safe "piece-to-camera" series simply recounting the stories of other people's heroism — that is not Bear's style. Bear climbed Everest at the tender age of 23, the youngest person ever to do so. He's crossed frozen oceans and survived in the world's hottest deserts. Bear knows a thing or two about survival, so when it comes to explaining how other people pulled through against the odds, he wants to put himself in their position — to actually relive these mind-boggling real-life survival scenarios.

They've been running commercials of that show back to back with commercials for everest show. Should be interesting on both counts althou I'm sick and tired of people dying in Nepal for disrespecting mother nature.

I've seen a couple of Bear's shows and he take so many unnessary risks it's not even funny and someone may die following his advice!
