I would rather have an aboriginal guide teach survival than SF guys that have all sorts of fancy supersecret gizmos and support networks to rescue them. They don't get lost behind enemy lines for several months and have to live off the land. Give us someone with real world experience


This TV show is just basically Urban Survival Porn for Mall Ninjas. Throw most SFs a tin of Tuna and ask them to get to the contents without a P-38 and they would be stuffed (Cody knows how to though grin). None of the so called scenarios in this show (from what I have gleaned from the video trailers) are likely to occur. This SF guy would save more lives by just telling folks to wear sensible shoes, be careful of slippery surfaces, don't drive to fast and to secure that gun when not in use.

Most SFs don't have a problem getting a fire going though; forget about rubbing two sticks together, they can always rely on the fly boys to drop 500lbs of Napalm after they call one in on their commercial Iridium phones.

Forget about terrorists invading your home or the local Mall (if this a substantial threat then it would probably be best to move to a another city or country before it happens). If your gonna get shot chances are its gonna be your spouse, your best friend or your neighbour doing the deed.

Oh and if an SF guy wants a decent pair of boots he will be buying them from the same outdoor shops down at the mall. whistle
