Last night I saw about 10 minutes of the Alps show. Enough to watch Bear run, stumble and fall down a hard snow chute that easily could have tumbled him head first into the rock walls or broken bones. he then "found" a pre-rigged tyrolean traverse across a deep canyon and proceded to slide across on the "old ropes" Come on!!!
Bear wins the ID-10-T award for 2006, hands down!! Oh, and I guess he parachuted onto the mountain as well. The show is all done for effect and not one bit for any practical survival technique. I am gonna have to comment to Discovery Channel about this ridiculous show!!! It is actually starting to P*** me off!
