Those who have watched the show know what it is about. I am afraid that I am not prepared to explain it to those who have not. What I would like to see is for Les Stroud to duplicate each of his survivor scenarios with 60 lbs of survival equipment and supplies instead of 60 lbs of camera equipment. Obviously they would have to have a crew follow him around.

But I would like to see how the two survivor situations would differ... to see how much easier having the right equipment makes a survival situation. I think we can learn a lot personally from such a comparison. It would let us evaluate the importance of different equipment in a survival situation. We could be better informed as to what is a necessity vs. what is just extra junk to carry.
